Chapter 410 I Don't Want To See Him Die

 "...!"

Watching Sydonay suddenly fly away, Fang Li put that aside for now, but Shana couldn't help but stand up.

However, the intense pain coursing through her entire body immediately caused Shana's body to soften and she clutched her abdomen as sweat dripped down her face.

In this condition, it was simply impossible for Shana to pursue anyone.

At this moment, the scorching, turbid purple flames of the Crimson World around them began to recede, causing the entire space to tremble.

"Not good!"

Finally, Alastor spoke up, his voice emanating from the pendant in front of Shana.

"Fuuzetsu/Seal is about to be released, quickly maintain it!"

Hearing this, Shana also reacted.

This was no small matter.

Fuuzetsu/Seal was a barrier that isolated internal and external causality, an Unrestricted Spell that caused everything in this world to tend toward stillness. In other words, everything that happened within this barrier was only a temporary state due to the severed causal relationships.

In such a situation, as long as the Power of Existence was used, everything damaged could be repaired. Humans eaten by 'Denizens' could be turned into Torches using their remnants, alleviating the world's distortion.

However, once Fuuzetsu/Seal was released, internal and external causality reconnected, time started flowing again, and everything within Fuuzetsu/Seal would become reality, irreversible.

In other words, if someone was eaten in such a situation without leaving behind a Torch, the world's distortion could no longer be alleviated and would become a reality.

For example, the dreadful, pockmarked riverbank, the river that seemed to be split apart, and the brutally severed Misaki Bridge, once Fuuzetsu/Seal was released, all of these would become real scenes that could not be repaired.

By then, it would absolutely bring enormous chaos to the world and serious consequences to Misaki City.

Therefore, Fuuzetsu/Seal absolutely could not be released until everything was repaired.

At this moment, enduring the pain, Shana raised one hand.

"Fuuzetsu/Seal!"

The trembling edge of the vivid Crimson World began to abruptly fade, replaced by the Red Lotus flames.

This was the flame exclusive to the "Flame of Heaven" and also exclusive to the "Flame-Haired Burning-Eyed Assassin."

The burning of the Red Lotus Karmic Fire turned this Fuuzetsu/Seal into Shana's possession, with Shana becoming the source of power, stabilizing the entire barrier.

Shana finally breathed a sigh of relief and unconsciously looked ahead.

Shortly afterward, Shana finally saw it.

Fang Li, drenched in blood, seemed to completely relax and fell to the ground.

Shana was immediately shocked.

"Ugh..." Alastor seemed to sigh with relief and said, "Has he finally reached his limit?"

If Fang Li hadn't fallen by this point, Alastor would genuinely have to start suspecting whether the opponent was a true human.

Shana hesitated for a moment, then struggled to get up and walked towards Fang Li.

When she arrived in front of Fang Li, even Shana couldn't help but be moved.

"Ha... Ha..."

Amidst the painful panting sounds, Fang Li lay on the ground, and a pool of blood had already spread beneath him.

All that blood had just flowed out from Fang Li's body.

After all, Fang Li's body had long been torn open, a gruesome sight with grotesque wounds everywhere. Whether it was muscles torn by claws or shoulders, arms, and abdomen pierced by fangs, the severity of the injuries needed no questioning.

With such critical injuries, there was no need to doubt their lethality. At least, if things continued like this, Fang Li would inevitably die from excessive bleeding.

"Death?" Shana blurted out as if she couldn't believe it. Because Shana truly couldn't imagine that the person who had just fiercely engaged in close combat with the Crimson World Crimson Lord, showing no signs of weakness and standing up without hesitation no matter how much blood was shed, would actually die at this moment.

It can be said that Fang Li's fighting spirit had indeed brought a great shock to Shana. However, in reality, even a Flame Haze or a Crimson World Denizen might die from such injuries. So, this was just a perfectly normal occurrence.

Yet, at this moment, an involuntary resistance surged within Shana against this perfectly normal event. Consequently, Shana subconsciously thought, "I don't want to see this person die…"

At that moment, Shana spoke to the pendant in front of her.

"Alastor, what should we do now?"

Alastor remained silent for a moment. Then, he said, "Neither of us is the type proficient in healing Unrestricted Spells."

In other words, Alastor had no solution. Naturally, Shana had no solution either. This made Shana finally unable to bear a sense of urgency.

At this moment, a weak voice entered Shana's ears.

"In the pocket…"

Shana suddenly raised her gaze and looked at Fang Li. Fang Li, with a pale complexion, struggled to take a breath and spoke with some difficulty.

"In the pocket… there's a Jewel."

It was only then that Shana reacted. "Jewel?" What was that?

With this thought in mind, Shana had already crouched down and started searching in Fang Li's pocket. Soon, Shana found it – a Jewel.

"This is..." Shana voiced her surprise. "Hmm..." Alastor also seemed to be observing the Jewel and said, "I can sense some kind of power residing in it. It should be a Treasure Tool, but I haven't seen one like it before."

Of course, whether he had seen it before or not was not the point. The point was what this Treasure Tool could do.

"Now that this guy mentioned this Jewel, its function should be related to that, right?"

With a certain degree of confidence, Shana pressed the Jewel in her hand against Fang Li's body.

"Zheng—!"

A gentle light suddenly bloomed from the Jewel, enveloping Fang Li's entire body and shining on Shana as well.

"Eh?" The next moment, Shana exclaimed in surprise. Because Shana felt that the pain coursing through her body, which had been persisting, suddenly began to recede. Her heavily wounded body also started to recover, and power began to flow again.

Simultaneously, Fang Li's severe injuries also began to heal at a visible speed, gradually gaining recovery.

When the light on the Jewel dimmed, Shana's body injuries had completely healed. As for Fang Li's injuries, they were also mostly healed, with only some severe wounds remaining on his arm and shoulder.

However, the majority of the injuries being healed made Fang Li's pale complexion start to regain a healthy flush, and his breathing became steady.

In this situation, Fang Li unexpectedly fell into a deep sleep.

Watching this scene, Shana looked at the Jewel in her hand, and after a long time, she sighed rarely.

"Anyway, let's take him back."
