Chapter 705: Chapter 72 Sealing
(PS: Don’t look yet, ten minutes to revise.)
Sizzle—
A white electric arc flashed from the ring embedded in the forehead of “Miser” Jack, causing his body to twitch each ti it flickered.
Looking at “Miser” Jack, who lay there like a dead pig, Shao Zifeng felt sowhat emotional. This ring was given to him by Matvey before his death. At that ti, Shao Zifeng didn’t care much about it, only rembering it just before he was ready to act. (PS: Filled an ancient plot hole, not sure how many people rember.)
Although the process of the operation was a bit risky, the outco was ultimately good. If it weren’t for Qiuqiu’s tily howl, Shao Zifeng almost really signed a Life Contract with it.
He walked over to “Miser” Jack, a blue light dot slowly rotating in his peripheral vision, and a pale blue light screen unfolded along with it.

After the contract is fulfilled, it resides within the target’s body, absorbing the target’s life force.

(Current Contract: None)

: Deceit: “Miser” Jack only wishes to take life force.

[Description]:”Jack was stingy, cunning and deceitful; he made a deal with the devil, and when the devil ca to claim his soul, Jack tricked the devil into promising never to take his soul. After Jack died, his soul could neither ascend to heaven nor descend to hell, so he had to rely on a tiny candle to guide his wandering spirit between heaven and earth.” The above is from an ancient Irish legend.
This guy had indeed enhanced his strength by one heart. Shao Zifeng squatted down and reached out to grab the silver ring on its forehead.
At that mont, “Miser” Jack, who had his eyes tightly closed, suddenly opened them, his pupils flickering with a ghastly green fla as he stared maliciously at Shao Zifeng. He reached out his withered hand towards Shao Zifeng and a hoarse voice ca through: “You’ve been fooled, I’m going to kill you!”
Confronted with “Miser” Jack’s attack, Shao Zifeng remained unmoved as if he hadn’t yet reacted.
“Mao~”
Just as “Miser” Jack was about to succeed, a black shadow suddenly pierced through Shao Zifeng’s body, lunging forward with bared fangs and claws.
“Miser” Jack only saw a blur before his body was overwheld by a heavy weight, and his hands were pinned to the ground by furry large paws.
Looking up, he saw a large black cat looming over him, its mouth agape to reveal sharp teeth glittering with a chilling cold light, and its eyes ablaze with deep-seated hatred.
Hatred?
“Miser” Jack was a bit dazed. He didn’t seem to have offended it, so where was this intense hatred coming from?
“Hiss.”
The great cat’s fur bristled, its throat emitted an intimidating growl, and it looked down upon the enemy who had stolen from its ho. Embracing the idea of imminent vengeance, the cat quivered with excitent.
Just as it prepared to bite down twice, Shao Zifeng’s voice suddenly ca from behind, “Big Cat, hold it down, don’t move.”
Big Cat was taken aback, only to see Shao Zifeng’s thumb pressing against its body onto the middle of the silver ring, the bright red blood instantly filling the entire ring.
Shao Zifeng closed his eyes, his hair gently floating up, and he uttered a strange string of syllables.
“Darker than darkness, deeper than the deep of night, you fallen creatures.”
As he spoke, the blood within the silver ring squird, extending blood-ford tentacles that climbed out of the ring.
‘The Miser’ Jack seed to realize sothing, its eyes showing a look of terror.
“Impossible, impossible…”
“You couldn’t possibly know that incantation, they are all dead… Why, how do you know!!!”
Shao Zifeng ignored the hysterical ‘The Miser’ Jack and continued to recite the incantation from the ring.
“Spirits wafting and wandering upon the chaotic seas, souls drifting through the mortal realm, the dead walking amongst n, all shall return by the laws of nature to the land of the deceased.”
The blood-ford tentacles stretched out vigorously, intertwining to etch arcane runes onto ‘The Miser’ Jack’s face.
It struggled madly, its pallid, withered face cracking open, a black void of a mouth issuing a piercing wail.
“No… don’t…”
“Let go, I am willing to leave this place…”
“I beg of you.”
Shao Zifeng’s breathing grew more and more rapid, he could feel his spiritual power quickly draining, even the wound on his thumb kept spurting out blood.
“Confusion and bewildernt, hatred and sorrow, shall vanish into the path of light without form.”
As the last part of the incantation was recited, the blood-drawn runes had completely covered ‘The Miser’ Jack’s body, it lay stiff on the ground, only its eyes still able to move.
At that mont, Shao Zifeng abruptly opened his eyes.
“Seal!”
With that word, Shao Zifeng’s aura peaked, and the blood-red patterns distributed all over ‘The Miser’ Jack started to wriggle again, tearing its body to shreds and furiously rolling back into the silver ring.
Shao Zifeng released his thumb from the ring, his body swaying as if about to fall, but Big Cat quickly caught him, staring straight at the slowly rising silver ring.
“Ah…”
Red patterns filled the sky, mingling with black fragnts, and vaguely there seed to be its pitiful cries.
As the last trace of the blood patterns returned to the ring, the floating silver ring completely changed its appearance. The originally simple face of the ring now entangled with black and red blood patterns, emanating an evil aura.
Shao Zifeng reached out to catch the silver ring, his heart finally relaxing.
