Chapter 1240: 1240
Bai Yunfei initially thought Dongfang Ming was trying to escape from the seal, but a precursory scan of the Core World told him that this wasn’t the case . Eyebrows furrowed, he waved his right hand and gave it a wave .
Everyone watched in curiosity at Bai Yunfei’s actions, curious what he was doing . There was a bright flash light before a figure appeared out of nowhere .
“Dongfang Ming!!”
Huangfu Nan snarled in anger at the sight of the man . He stepped forward as if to inflict harm onto the man, but then he paused when he saw the state of Dongfang Ming .
He wasn’t the only one to give pause . Several others looked on in shock as well .
Everyone could tell that Dongfang Ming was in a very terrible state!
Rather than stand straight, Dongfang Ming was stooped over like a hunchback . His skin was unblemished and without injury, though the newly-healed parts looked as pale as bone that made him seem more like a shell than an actual person . There was a dark-red light that circled around his person like a chain, though it flickered weakly as if ready to disappear at any second .
The biggest eye-catcher was his chest, specifically the part where his heart was . The way his chest heaved in and out made it seem like his heart was trying its very best to burst out from his chest . In fact, with the light that was glowing from that area, and how forceful it was in its thumping, the outline of his heart could be seen and heard by everyone in the hall .
No one could tell how he was since the Soul Sealing Mandate had sealed his soulforce, meaning it was impossible to tell . But no one needed to use their soulforce to tell that Dongfang Ming was in a very dangerous state right now .
“Sealer, what’s going on?” Bai Yunfei asked .
The white ball of light several inches over Dongfang Ming’s head emitted a bright flash of light before a small tiger flew out from it .
For many of the people in the halls, this was their very first time seeing the spirit of a Regalia . Even Shen Pojun found himself staring at the apparition with wide-opened eyes .
“I’ve nothing to do with it,” The tiger shrugged its paws, “he’s doing this himself . I think…this is the backlash of a demon armament . ”
“A backlash!?” Bai Yunfei repeated, “Clarify that, if you can . Did he do anything before he was sealed?”
“Well, his body hasn’t really stopped ‘moving’ since he was sealed . Isn’t that why his body is healed now? But that’s just on the physical level . His soulforce is pretty much empty . He’s been struggling for a long time now, and he’s even tried summoning his two demon armaments, without success of course . I could tell he used some kind of technique since his core started to act differently when I called for you . His spirit got a lot stronger because of that and he definitely tried to break the seal…
“But he’s underestimating me if he thought that last-ditch effort could break my seal…” The tiger mewled with pride, “I wouldn’t be a Regalia if I could be overpowered by something like that…his soulforce weakened after some time and that’s why he’s like this now—if I’m not wrong, then the demon armament is now causing a backlash after being used like that . ”
“The backlash of a demon armament…what kind of effect will that have?” Bai Yunfei asked .
“It won’t be pretty, and it won’t be weak . But it’s hard to imagine what the price will be in this case—his demonic body is pretty close to collapsing right now . I can’t even say his physical body compares to even the regular soul cultivator . His core is eating away at his own soul . He’s fighting against it, but if you ask me…it’s a losing battle . ”
The tiger looked up to Bai Yunfei . “And his death means the death of the spirit of his core . ” It added .
“What?”
Huangfu Nan realized the implications immediately, “That can’t be! He can’t be allowed to die! If he does, then…”
