Floating high above in the gap between the branches of the Tree of Fate that reached toward the sky, Kyle smirked when he saw the celestial spirit slowing its pace.
"It's already too late for you to escape!"
He slapped his hands together, and with a powerful spiritual surge, a blue net made of his icy flas and spiritual energy erupted as the countless symbols surrounding him rged before vanishing to ensnare the spirit that had entered his vicinity.
The spirit let out a loud, angry screech, a stark contrast to the lodic sound it had released earlier to control everyone.
From right behind Kyle, multiple powerful skills and spells composed of fire, earth, water, and air surged toward the spirit.
Those who could harness the laws of nature manipulated the space around the spirit to prevent it from breaking free from the blue net that enveloped it.
Kyle clenched his jaw as he recalled how Azazeal had shrunk the size of one of the spirits in the past before consuming it. He had to do just that. But he would use his own power instead of dark energy.
Shrinking its size to that of a small core would be sufficient to capture it, and then they can contact the Will of the Universe to use the spirit to reach the Celestial realm.
Almost as if he were grasping a rope, Kyle seized the remaining symbols around him. Those symbols imdiately latched onto the blue net enveloping the struggling spirit. He moved back, pulling the symbols in his hand with him, and the celestial spirit let out another loud, furious cry.
Suddenly, radiant patterns emanated from the spirit's body, casting a brilliant white light all around. However, that glow had an unsettling quality because it began to drain spiritual energy from everything it touched. Many spiritual flowers blossod from the land before quickly wilting away. All that energy coalesced and slamd against the power of the natural laws and the icy blue net binding its formless body.
Alec cursed under his breath as the power of his natural law shattered entirely, and he lost control over the space. Just like him, many around him also lost their grip on the natural laws they were using.
Kyle's palms began to bleed as he moved backward with the glowing symbols. With every short distance he covered, the icy net enveloping the spirit shrank, causing its size to diminish as well.
The celestial spirit struggled with all its might, letting out cries and thrashing about in an attempt to destroy the array. It tried to manipulate the minds of the many weak elves below on the land, but after the initial daze, everyone had closed their eyes and ears, rendering its efforts futile.
Kyle gritted his teeth and called out.
"Help !"
Jas and Ariana glanced at the others, and everyone rushed forward to help him.
They thought the tall man wanted them to assist him in moving back. However, for that, they had to grab his body.
Jian moved to the forefront, gathering all his courage as Alec and Asher both raised their hands in clear denial.
"Scaredy bastards!"
He muttered, ready to grab Kyle's waist. That way, everyone else could grab him, and they could successfully push Kyle back, but the tall, bronze-skinned man glared at him.
"Not you all! Attack with your skills and natural laws from a distance!"
Kyle shouted as he wrapped the symbols around his fists. He wasn't asking them for help; he was asking the Tree of Fate!
Jian didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Why the hell was he always the only one getting on Kyle's wrong nerves?
What did he even do wrong?!
He grumbled under his breath, feeling wronged, and floated back but stumbled when suddenly one of the branches of the Tree of Fate moved, followed by another, and then nurous others.
"???"
Wesley grabbed his collar just in ti before he beca collateral damage and got tangled up in the moving branches. The red-haired man quickly grasped the old elf's hand and balanced himself in mid-air before inhaling a deep breath.
"Good catch!"
He murmured, and under everyone's gaze, the large green branches of the Tree of Fate surged forward with astonishing speed and began wrapping themselves around the icy net that ensnared the struggling spirit.
The Tree of Fate hadn't yet regained its full strength and spiritual power, but it could aid with whatever power it had recovered.
Kyle floated in the midst of the scene, both of his fists tightly gripping the symbols as he slowly moved backward. His eyes lit up when he saw the spirit's size shrink again.
"Almost there!"
Hearing his shout, those behind him once again utilized their skills and natural laws to assist, alongside the Tree of Fate.
They closed the space surrounding the spirit's formless body and launched their attacks to hinder its struggles.
With another strong pull, Kyle summoned all his strength and executed a backward flip in the air, covering a considerable distance in a brief mont.
Instantly, the spirit let out a thunderous, agonizing screech, and before everyone's eyes, its massive size diminished at a frightening speed. Kyle didn't stop, and in just a few seconds, the spirit's size was reduced to match his own.
Jian's eyes brightened at the scene.
"Just a bit more! You can do it!"
He shouted loudly at Kyle before looking around at the others with him.
"Those who can use the natural laws, unite your powers! We just need one final pull!"
Seeing his enthusiasm, everyone beca excited, and those who could manipulate space harnessed their natural laws. It was a scene never witnessed before, and they were just monts away from capturing a Celestial spirit! A freaking Celestial spirit!
"What a beautiful sight."
An empty voice whispered as Azazeal stared at the scene from far above.
He had arrived at this place the mont the spirit erged from its hiding spot, but watching others do the work for him wasn't a bad thing sotis either.
