Capítulo 820: Erlik's Plan (Part 2)

"The only reason the tree is in this state is that Erlik couldn't predict that the interaction between Body Sculpting and the mold would cause long term side effects. Tier five light magic twists the life force, while the mold is capable of preventing its victim from reclaiming its lost parts.

"Both effects were supposed to be destroyed by the tree's recovering abilities once the devices had been removed, but even after its death, the mold's life force blocking properties allowed the sacks of life force twisted by Body Sculpting to survive."
