Chapter 659: This place looks familiar III
Azazeal was suprised at Kyle's words.
"You have dug up so much I had forgotten. You know this place was once my home. Did I leave a clue here in the past? I can't quite recall. It's been thousands of years."
Kyle arched a brow. His expression remained composed, yet his fists were tightly clenched with tension.
'Just a bit longer...'
He noticed the symbols that had glowed on the ground under Azazeal and throughout the tomb slowly starting to float in the air.
"Seriously, you forget that you yourself wrote down the fact that there's nothing left of the blessed race except for the land they inhabited, the very ground we stand upon. Then... what about Lilith and Nathaniel? Did you forget them too? What a shame... I was going to let you see them again."
Right away, the atmosphere surrounding Azazeal became still, and a burst of dark energy erupted from his body. Even though the symbols beneath him hungrily devoured the energy, it still caused harm to everyone nearby, including Kyle.
"You even know about them? And how are you going to let me see them again...?"
His voice grew ominously deep as the obsidian in his eyes began to shift, unveiling the two purple slits within.
Kyle's fists tightened as he wiped away the blood trickling from his mouth. The abrupt surge of dark energy from Azazeal's body had rattled his internal organs. He could only hope that the others were fine...
"It's actually pretty easy."
He smirked and flicked his fingers. A few symbols lit up beside him, merging together to form two illusionary figures.
He was conjuring an illusion. Now that he knew how Nathaniel and Lilith looked like, he could shape their forms. It was a shame that the illusion he was creating would be mere images unable to do anything.
Azazeal's eyes zeroed in as the symbols next to Kyle intertwined and shaped two very familiar faces gazing at him.
The two illusionary figures showed no emotions; they were just made from energy. But Kyle's eyes flashed with contentment as the man in front of him finally displayed emotions in his usually empty gaze.
It was pure rage and hatred directed towards the two illusionary figures.
Kyle let out a chuckle when the two illusionary figures beside him, who had just taken shape, burst into energy, and he knew very well who had destroyed them. He gazed straight into Azazeal's eyes.
"I must say, just like you mentioned in the old tale, Lilith and Nathaniel were truly good people. I am sure that is why they foresaw early on how wicked you would become in the future. The only mistake they made was that they didn't completely vanquish you-!"
His words got abruptly cut short when a powerful force hit his body, sending him hurling backward at an astonishing speed, leaving him unable to react in time.
Kyle slammed into the ground hard, and blood immediately spilled from his mouth. Despite trying his best to pause, his body didn't stop. He crashed into many boulders, shattering them instantly before his body finally came to a halt as he collided with the lower body of a massive marble statue.
He immediately coughed out more blood. But the statue he crashed into crumbled, so instead of healing his injuries, he quickly conjured a shield with spiritual energy to protect himself from the falling debris.
Alec and the others who were saved from the dark flames after the dark flames were consumed by the bright symbols couldn't even blink as everything unfolded.
Nine's eyes dilated as he caught the sound of someone crashing into something. Just like the rest, he heard and saw what Kyle had just said and shown to Azazeal.
'Kyle, that bastard! Why is he provoking the leader of the dark side when he knows he can't win against Azazeal at the moment? Does he not want to live anymore?'
His eyes shook as he clenched his teeth and attempted to move like the others. Yue and the phoenix were the most fretful for Kyle at that moment. Yue even managed to stand on her feet briefly before collapsing back onto her knees. Her eyes turned red.
'Why? Why can't I do anything!?'
All of a sudden, a brilliant light flashed around them. It was so bright that it made them all instinctively shut their eyes.
The numerous symbols that had started to float swiftly shot towards the sky, too fast for anyone to react.
Next, a surge of powerful energy erupted from all the trial grounds Kyle had filled with his symbols. These beams combined in the sky, forming a dazzling web that wrapped around the entire tomb.
Alec and the others snapped open their eyes when they suddenly felt their bodies enveloped by a warm sensation, only to see their bodies dissipate into particles that began to be pulled
towards the sky.
All of them immediately tried to resist the warm energy that had entirely surrounded their bodies but were momentarily dazed when they saw the colossal portal that had materialized in the sky, surrounded by a dazzling golden web of symbols.
They weren't the only ones being transformed into particles that were forcefully drawn toward the portal; every living person in the lost treasure tomb was also experiencing the same phenomenon, whether they wanted it or not.
Countless startled screams and shouts reverberated through the tomb as the people abruptly discovered their bodies dissolving into particles, drifting towards the portal in the sky that devoured everything that came near.
Despite their efforts, they were powerless to resist and could only watch in horror as they completely transformed into particles and vanished from the tomb.
Jian let out an angry chuckle as he attempted to break free from the energy enveloping his
body.
"Don't tell me that jerk was distracting Azazeal so the array he crafted could activate successfully?"
He would be a fool if he didn't know what Kyle was planning. Right from the start, the silver- haired man aimed to get them all out of this tomb safely and blow it up with Azazeal and
himself inside!
"I am not leaving, no way! Not unless he's coming with us!"
