A deep knife wound materialized over his heart, imbued with a bizarre Ability that caused his blood to gush out like a waterfall, defying all norms.
Immediately after, tendrils of scarlet cursed energy slithered like venomous snakes toward his beating heart, coiling around it and causing the flesh to rapidly decay.
In Zhou Chen's Soul, the Book of the Dead, bound by layers of the Star Chain, suddenly opened a crack. It revealed a profound Darkness like an entrance to the endless Abyss. A powerful suction force erupted from within, easily devouring the scarlet curse of decay.
A healing radiance lit up on Erin's hand. With a push into the void, a warm light descended upon Zhou Chen, causing the decaying flesh to regenerate at an incredible speed and fill with life and vitality. The gushing blood stopped, and the wound on his chest slowly closed under the healing of the Holy Light.
But the very instant the wound healed, the flesh burst open again, creating an identical injury.
