Celestial Bloodline

Chapter 113 Underground Tunnel

Outside the Tower,

The small city present around the tower wasn't as bustling as 5 months ago when the chosen participants arrived to enter the Tower.

A lot of merchants and other individuals who were there solely for business had long left the city. They will probably return when the participants come out from the tower.

However, one representative from each Kingdom was still staying inside the city to take care of any unforeseen events.

From Royal Academy, Vice Principal George was staying inside the city but for some reason, he left and asked Elder Han to stay inside the city in his absence.

With a worried expression, Elder Han was pacing outside the hotel where Royal Academy students spend their time before entering the Tower.

He sighed and looked far at the Tower.

"I wonder if he found the Elixir."

Elder Han mumbled under his breath. After the students entered the Tower, he was a little curious about Kyle and inquired about everything related to him from Professor Aliza because Kyle was his first and maybe last disciple.

During his investigation, Elder Han found out about Kyle's family circumstances.

He wanted to help Kyle's family a little but after visiting Kyle's house and seeing his brother's condition, Elder Han knew except for the 'Elixir of Life' nothing else could cure them.

Elder Han did ask around for the Elixir but even after 5 months he wasn't able to acquire any information regarding its appearance.

In the end, as Kyle's master, he felt it would be bad if he didn't do anything so he offered high-grade healing potions to Baron Ohan. After all, something like high-grade potions wasn't much for Elder Han because he could make potions himself with materials but to his surprise, Baron Ohan didn't accept the potions because Kyle sold a lot of things and prepared enough resources before he left for the Tower.

That's why, Elder Han wasn't able to do anything to help Kyle's family.

However, he kept an eye on Kyle's brother's condition. Just a week ago, he received a piece of news that their condition worsened.

Now, they were in critical condition. If Kyle didn't find the Elixir of Life inside the Tower and brought it out within one month, their life would be in extreme danger.

Even though the healers said that Kyle's brothers could hold on for 8 months. But suddenly last month the poison present within their bodies reached their hearts. That's why it was becoming very difficult to stabilize their conditions.

Elder Han shook his head. He was trying his best to find the Elixir but it was something that hadn't appeared inside Kingdom Escalante for the past fifty years.

He just hoped that Kyle found the Elixir because he didn't want his only disciple to suffer.

.....

Meanwhile, Inside the Tower's 9th floor.

Kyle was walking with Alec and Jian. They walked around the vast plain for a whole day but found nothing except empty desolate land.

After looking around the whole day, Bia was now sleeping on top of Kyle's head.

Just like that, another hour passed and with tired expressions, they decided to rest for a while before continuing to look around for a structure present within the plain.

While everyone was sitting, Kyle looked at himself and frowned. His last set of clothes was so dirty that he wanted to throw it away. Suddenly he looked at Alec.

'His body size is almost equal to mine. Should I ask for some spare clothes?'

He thought inwardly but then raised his brow. He wasn't able to sense Alec's aura.

'He is probably one or two sub-ranks higher than me!'

Kyle exclaimed inwardly. He didn't expect Alec to advance so quickly. Even though Kyle himself was (D)-Rank, he gave all the credit to the 'old scroll' he acquired from the strange dwarf.

'Does that mean Alec is (D+)-Rank or (C-)-Rank?'

Kyle's eyes widen slightly. Such a fast speed! Reaching (C-)-Rank at such a young age was definitely amazing but he was just speculating and didn't know Alec's actual Rank.

While Kyle was looking at Alec curiously, Alec gazed back at him.

"What happened?"

Kyle snapped out of his thoughts and looked at Alec.

"Actually I don't have more clean clothes. Do you have some extra?"

Alec blinked his eyes while looking at Kyle before taking out two sets of clothes and giving it to Kyle.

He bought a lot of clothes before entering the Tower. So, he still had some left.

Seeing the clothes Kyle's eyes lit up. He didn't like being dirty! He grabbed the clothes from Alec and hurriedly untied the small bag from his waist.

Alec and Jian who were sitting in front of him gazed at the round cloth bag. They were curious as to what was inside because Kyle had been taking care of this cloth bag for a while now.

Kyle looked at the duo sitting in front of him and narrowed his eyes.

'Are they going to watch me undress?'

"I want to change, can you both turn around for a while?"

Both Alec and Jian gazed at Kyle and nodded before they turned around to look at another place.

Kyle hurriedly changed his clothes and finally felt comfortable. He looked at the blue top and pants he was wearing.

'They fit me perfectly.'

After the three of them ate something. Alec and Jian were curious about what was inside the cloth bag but Kyle didn't open it.

In the end, they looked away with disappointment.

After an hour of resting, they started walking again. Bia also woke up and started flying again.

-'There's something present a few meters ahead.'

With narrowed eyes, she looked at a large rock present within the plain and immediately informed Kyle.

With a nod, Kyle gestured for Alec and Jian to walk toward the rock.

After five minutes, they were standing in front of the rock.

It was circular and looked like a huge boulder but because the rock was the only thing present within the desolate plain, Kyle and the others hurriedly looked around the large rock in the hope of finding something.

"There's nothing!"

Jian exclaimed with a sigh after looking around the rock. He gazed at Alec who also shook his head.

On the other hand, Kyle was looking at the rock with a serious expression before he spoke with hesitation.

"How about we move it?"

Alec and Jian both looked at Kyle and nodded.

All of them got ready to push the huge boulder but the moment they gave it a little push, the circular boulder rolled back, making them surprised.

"There are stairs leading underground!"

Jian exclaimed with excitement when he saw a tunnel after the boulder rolled back. Inside the dark tunnel, a narrow stone stairway was leading underground.

"Finally! After seeing the desolate land, I thought we wouldn't be able to find anything from this floor."

Jian said before all three of them immediately entered the underground tunnel.
