Seed That Allows the Dead to Breathe
The Seed That Allows the Dead to Breathe is a special artifact whose power restores life to Jung Taebaek after Yu Jitae completes the necessary preparations and BM activates the ritual.
History
The final requirement for Taebaek's restoration
Yu Jitae first identifies the seed as the final additional requirement beyond the carefully measured ingredients for an eight-year-old child's heart. He tells BM that it can be found at a summit and that reaching it will be dangerous for BM, leaving BM to prepare the other materials while Yu Jitae arranges the seed and the body needed for the restoration. (Chapter 142)
Restoring Jung Taebaek
Yu Jitae leads BM to a snowy mountain and reveals that the small hill beneath them is itself a large living life. At Yu Jitae's direction, BM kneels, moves his mana, and focuses his will on restoring Taebaek. Ignite causes the special artifact to dissolve its own seal; its power fills Taebaek's empty heart, restarts circulation and breathing, restores dead tissues and organs, and allows the child to open his eyes. (Chapter 262)
