Celestial Bloodline

Chapter 278 Pretending to be on the death door

The time ticked by and with each passing second, the heaviness within the air thinned. Kyle's chest heaved up and down in rhythm and a calm expression painted his facial features. After the first minute, the boar was astonished at the kid because only a powerful body could cope with the divine essence for so long. However, even after five long minutes, the kid's body did not show any sign of explosion.

He could not help but get closer to the kid to see if he was really going to explode.

The boar's expression turned solemn because even after he secretly sent his mana toward the kid he did not sense anything.

'Is he wearing a concealing artifact? Strange even if the artifact is a high-rank one I could have at least sensed his rank.'

Bia watched the floating ball as it started circling Kyle with a solemn expression. Her eyes flickered with complicated emotions and if one looked closely they would notice the previous panic and worry had vanished from her eyes.

She slowly planted her left paw on Kyle's body while fixing her gaze on the floating ball. A familiar voice echoed in her head.

'Bia, don't tell me that thing is still here! I am already pretending to be on death door why is it not leaving!?'

-'Shut up! It's still here and now the white ball is looking at you with a strange expression. Jeez...you almost gave me a heart attack when you suddenly fainted!'

'I don't know why but suddenly I felt very sleepy and my eyes closed without my permission... Also, I don't think my body is going to explode. Instead, my strength is rising and now it's getting unbearable for me to stop a breakthrough! Hurry look for an exit so we can leave this place!'

-'... Don't tell me you are planning to use instant teleportation and vanish without me?'

Kyle paused for a few seconds and Bia almost had an urge to yank his hair.

'Of course not... I will break through and come back for you!'

In the next second, Kyle could not help but grimace in his mind because the mana within his body went wild. His body was filled to the brim with energy.

'Damn, I am really going to explode if I stop my breakthrough any further!'

He snapped his eyes open and without caring about the gasping floating ball, he propelled his body up and crossed his legs to sit properly.

Kyle gulped down huge breaths and a thin layer of sweat appeared on his body. The previous comfort was replaced by a prickling sensation that appeared in almost every part of his body. Bia's shocked eyes raked around him, she could feel it. The mana around Kyle was trembling violently in a ruthless manner.

Kyle's eyes widened when chilling blue particles mixed with a few golden sparks surged out from his body. In an instant, they gathered and enclosed his body to form a dense shield.

He could not help but shiver when his body temperature started dropping.

'It's so col..d'

Kyle gritted his teeth when a burst of coldness seeped into his bones like a tidal wave. Now, he finally felt pain. A lot of pain. A barely audible cry escaped his lips but he shut his mouth and clenched his fists to bear the pain. He could feel it, his whole body was freezing. If it was someone else they would have already frozen to death.

Bia sensed Kyle's discomfort and flew around the dense shield with a worried expression but she was not able to see anything because Kyle was completely enclosed in the blue shield.

-'Hey, are you okay!'

A faint grumble sounded in her mind as a reply. With a deep breath, she started waiting for him to come out from the shield.

At this point, the floating ball was forgotten. The duo was too busy in their matters to care about anything else.

The boar tried to peer into the strange shield through his senses but a strong frightening force froze his senses. His eyes were so wide that they almost popped out from the sockets.

"How? I am clearly so much stronger... So why do I feel threatened."

He mumbled under his breath. His eyes traveled to the phoenix sitting beside the shield with a serious expression.

After contemplating for a few seconds, he got closer to the phoenix and spoke in her mind.

'Hey, what's with this human? How can he emit such a frightening energy!'

Bia almost had a mini heart attack when an unknown voice echoed in her mind. She snapped her head back to look at the floating ball.

-'Is it you!?'

The boar scoffed and flickered his finger to increase his size. A bright light traveled across his body and in the next second, a pair of huge majestic wings entered Bia's vision. She gasped. The floating ball was a winged boar! Moreover, it was twice her original size!

'Yes, it's me, now tell me what's happening with this boy.'

Bia retreated backward with a deadpan expression.

-'I don't know.'

The boar hummed and fixed his fascinated eyes on the shield. How long had it been since he saw something that made him shudder? He could not help but sigh. It's been a long time indeed.

'Anyway, little phoenix my name is Haylee. I am the guardian of the last treasure land. Also, no need to be so cautious. I won't harm you.'

The tension around Bia did not lessen but she gave the boar a nod. After all, the boar seemed very powerful and it would be dangerous for her and Kyle if she made him angry.

-'My name is Bia. Also, can you tell me about the divine essence? Why did you say Kyle's body would explode... Now this is happening....'

The boar lay down beside her with a complicated expression.

'I don't know what happened to this human but I can tell you about the divine essence.'
