Instead, she let out a soft sigh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“......What are you sighing about, human?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Karimal demanded coldly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Nothing...... I’m just marveling,” Hulim replied, slowly lifting her head to meet his gaze, “that even a former Rank S entity would be reduced to such pitiful weakness stuck in a body like this.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“......”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pitch-black flames erupted violently from Karimal’s form, blazing hotter than ever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Human......”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice was icy, laced with barely contained fury.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Did you just call me...... weak?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You insignificant worm——!!!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Filled with unbridled rage, Karimal reared up to his full height, raising both claws high above his head. Between his palms, a terrifying sphere of dark energy began to take shape.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How dare you look down on the great Lord Karimal! I will reduce you to ash with this Dead Black Flame Sphere—the same weapon that has snuffed out countless lives!!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sphere’s searing heat warped the air around it, creating a powerful suction that drew in the atmosphere from far and wide.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hulim tightened her grip on the Hercymuth, her voice steady as she spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That is, if you even get the chance to use it!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>SWOOSH!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her figure blurred, leaping into the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She held the Hercymuth high toward the sky, channeling a colossal surge of magical energy into the blade. The once-jet-black sword glowed with a brilliant, sacred light—as if a seal had been lifted—illuminating the entire Core Seal Chamber with its dazzling radiance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ahh......”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching the sight unfold, Karimal felt a gnawing sense of dread creep into his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the very next moment,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>that dread turned into harsh reality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The gleaming holy sword descended upon him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BOOM——!!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A massive blade of light cleaved straight through the center of the chamber, slicing the stone floor, the Dead Black Flame Sphere, and Karimal’s Chimera host body clean in two.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately afterward, the split Dead Black Flame Sphere unleashed its immense energy in a cataclysmic blast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>RUMBLE......\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A terrifying shockwave swept through the entire room......\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the dust finally settled,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>the Core Seal Chamber lay in utter ruin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Cursed human——!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An enraged roar echoed from behind the sealed wall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been unlawfully taken from NovelBin. Please report it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Tell me your name! When I break free, I will grind you into dust!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hulim cast a calm glance at the barrier wall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why would I tell a demon my name? That would only give you the means to curse me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“......”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Karimal fell silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a long pause, he spoke again, his voice dripping with malice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t get cocky, human!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This seal won’t hold for another half a day! Once I’m out, you’ll die all the same! You’d better start preparing for your funeral! Hahaha!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We’ll see about that.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hulim replied flatly, then turned and strode toward the sealed wall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmph~!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A cold sneer echoed from behind the wall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Still refusing to face reality? With your power, can’t you see this seal is on the verge of collapse?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How long the seal holds is not for you to decide.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hulim answered, coming to a stop in front of the wall and slinging her backpack off her shoulders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ha~! If it’s not up to me, then who? You? Do you really think you can do anything to change this?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who knows,” Hulim shrugged. “Maybe I can.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She pulled the three Seal Orbs from her backpack, followed by all the Magic Stones she had collected along the way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had picked them up on a whim—but now they were about to come in handy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment of silent gratitude, Hulim spread the Magic Stones evenly across the floor, then placed the three Seal Orbs in a neat, equidistant formation in the center.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She studied the arrangement for a moment, then frowned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shaking her head, she murmured, “......This won’t do. One of the orbs is damaged. I can’t place them like this.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She knelt down and readjusted the position of the three orbs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Much better. This should work.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the Seal Orbs properly placed, she knelt on the ground and began to draw a complex pattern.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“? Human, what are you doing?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing her suspicious actions from behind the wall, Karimal couldn’t help but demand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Can’t you tell?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hulim shot back with the same question, leaving Karimal tongue-tied. He snarled angrily,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It doesn’t matter what you’re up to—it’s useless! When I get out, I’ll kill you, your family, your friends, and everyone in that city nearby! I’ll slaughter every last one of you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“......”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hulim ignored him, focusing solely on completing her drawing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As an incredibly intricate Magic Array took shape before her eyes, Karimal grew increasingly uneasy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A terrible realization began to dawn on him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hey, human! Leave now, and I’ll spare your life!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hulim paid him no mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You insolent brat! How dare you ignore me! I’ll tear you limb from limb!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, Hulim did not respond.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Cursed human! I’m talking to you! Answer me!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Minutes passed......\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Human! I, Karimal, swear on my name—leave now, and I will not harm you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“......”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Bastard! I said I’ll spare you! Why won’t you leave?! Stop this at once!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>CLAP!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hulim clapped her hands together, finally stopping her work.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Karimal’s heart leaped with joy, thinking his threats had worked. But her next words poured cold water all over his hopes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Finally finished. Now it’s time to test its effectiveness.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“......”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“HUMAN!!! YOU’VE GONE TOO FAR!!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Calm down,” Hulim finally acknowledged him, a faint smirk in her voice. “This is just the beginning. You’ll be even more worked up in a moment.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“......”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, Hulim activated the Magic Array she had just drawn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A brilliant light erupted from the floor, bathing the entire chamber.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The countless Magic Stones scattered across the Magic Array melted away instantly, their vast stores of magical energy surging into the pattern.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three Seal Orbs placed within the array also began to glow with a dazzling light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slowly but surely, the three orbs dissolved into fine dust, merging completely with the Magic Array.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In their place, an arcane symbol materialized in mid-air—a rotating golden equilateral triangle at its center, aimed directly at the sealed wall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>WHOOSH——!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A beam of golden light shot forth from the arcane symbol, piercing straight into the barrier wall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the light continued to pour into the wall,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>the cracks that had marred its surface began to melt and reshape, gradually mending themselves. Even the dim, fractured crystal orb embedded in the wall regained its original, radiant glow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Bastard! You damned human! I’ll kill you! I swear I’ll kill you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Karimal’s enraged screams echoed from behind the wall—but there was nothing he could do now but rage helplessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before long, the Magic Stones on the floor were completely depleted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The light of the Magic Array faded away, and the golden beam vanished into thin air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hulim inspected the sealed wall, nodding in quiet satisfaction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not bad. It’s not a complete restoration, and the seal orbs will need to be replaced properly. But it won’t break anytime soon. This should buy us enough time to gather the right materials and perform a proper repair......”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, she looked up at the wall and called out to Karimal behind it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Well, that’s that. You can stay put in there for now. I have things to do, so I’ll be leaving first.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“......”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No reply came from behind the wall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The being who had been screaming in fury moments ago was now eerily silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Hulim sensed that something was amiss—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Heh...... Hehehe...... Hehehehe......”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A low, menacing chuckle began to echo from behind the wall, growing louder and more deranged with each passing moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Human...... Did you really think this would trap me~?”\u003C\u002Fp>",1303,"2026-06-10T06:36:37.918Z",1,"novelbin.me","5cd58d89cafbe891687027ebcc9849e256969ff9d1fe0bf5a2ae0711d68f4750","the-adventures-of-hulim-chapter-378","the-adventures-of-hulim-chapter-339",528,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-adventures-of-hulim-cover.jpg"]
