Chapter 997: Chapter 990: Strike Back

"That's right," Baiyue nodded and then explained with gestures, "We just need a few mages to open a magic barrier, blocking the surrounding magical energy from converging, while using the energy within the barrier before it depletes. Then we'll trick Liseya into entering this barrier. As long as she can't receive any magical energy, she'll be like a shark out of water, unable to move on land, thus restricting her freedom."

"But, after the magic is drained, won't her soul also dissipate?" Luo'er asked with a worried expression.

"No," Baiyue shook his head and then looked at Luo'er, "Don't forget Liseya is a demigod; her soul is anchored by a device, not by magic. Even if her physical form loses magic, her soul won't scatter because it's not reliant on the ether but on the device."

"I see." Luo'er nodded with an enlightened look.
