Chapter 2020 “Two Years (6)”
He only needed one foot into the next stage to enter the True Celestial level. At that point, the seal he created would be useless and could no longer trap him.
“Yun Feng, is there something you’re not telling me?” Bai Ning’s eyebrows slightly furrowed as she questioned her husband.
“When I sealed all the major domains, I used my body as the medium, that’s why I never told you or Yan’er. As long as those people find my previous body, they will be able to break the seal.” Heavenly’s face grew grim after bringing up the topic, “It’s a shame, my powers were limited back then so the best I could do was seal those monarchs.”
The sealing technique he knew ten thousand years ago was an incomplete product. It’s only capable of sealing certain individual’s soul. That’s to say, he sealed the monarchs and nothing more. To achieve such a feat, he had fought against every monarch he knew to collect a part of their souls. Then by infusing that fragment into his own body, the guy created a perennial spell that’s tuned specifically to those monarchs. As for the rest of the population in the domains, they’re unrelated, hence their ability to leave and enter as they pleased.
Likewise, the seal also effects Heavenly himself since his body acted as the eye for the spell. If he had forcibly shattered the spell using brute strength right now, who would defend the main worlds? He’s not a True Celestial anymore. That meant the monarchs would go on a rampage like in the past.
Bai Ning’s face turned pale, “You mean if those people manage to find your former body then they would be able to break the seal?”
“Yes,” said Heavenly with a bittersweet smile, ” to hide my flesh back then, I deliberately hid it at a corner of the Celestial Realm. But after so long, even I don’t know where my former body is anymore….”
“Yun Feng,” Bai Ning nervously grasped onto the man’s sleeve as the pacing of her breath grew faster, “does this mean Yan’er and Di Cang will be in trouble if those people can leave the domains?”
She hadn’t forgotten their daughter also had enemies in the domains. If those monarchs could escape the seal and come out, the consequences would be dire….
“I’m leaving the domain!” Bai Ning bit her lips so hard that it made her bleed, “Tell me the place you hid your body. Even if the landscaped changed, I will atleast have a head start before the enemy makes a move. I won’t let them break the seal!”
“Ning’er, it’s too dangerous!” Heavenly’s heart trembled, and he quickly grabbed Bai Ning’s hand to stop her, “Even if you do manage to learn of my former body’s whereabouts, you alone can’t do anything. The number of monarchs back then may not be large, but there were many of their subordinates who were close to that level in the past. Those unrestricted by the seal will surely come in force and easily overwhelm you. It will be you up against tens of thousands of foes.”
Absolute strength was a must in enforcing law and order, but the weak also had their advantages in numbers. It’s also the reason why the guy went after the heads instead of the entire body of the beast.
