Chapter 625: Ten Breaths

Although Xu Fu praised him, she couldn't be soft-hearted because of appreciation. There could only be one person who could walk out of the Imperial Palace today and go to the Central Plains to kill Master Monk.

Although she wanted to know how Li Miao avoided the influence of 【Jizhao】... Xu Fu didn't want to cause more trouble. There were too many weird things about Li Miao, but to explore these, it was safer to find and ponder from Li Miao's corpse.

*Boom! *

Xu Fu raised her palm, blocked Li Miao's left fist, and then led it to his right fist. She stepped forward and clamped both fists under her armpits, and her other hand slapped toward Li Miao's chin from bottom to top.

But just as the palm edge reached Li Miao's collarbone, a muffled sound suddenly came from the ground.

*Thud! *

Then a sharp pain came from her toes.

Xu Fu looked down and found that Li Miao had actually stomped on her toes. Judging from the pain coming from the soles of her feet, her five toes had clearly been stomped into meat paste by Li Miao.

She looked up, her pupils shrinking.

Li Miao's upper body had leaned over at some point, almost sticking to her face. His eyes were still closed, but even through his eyelids, she could clearly feel the surging murderous intent brewing at the bottom of his eyes, which no one in the world could match.

"I was thinking about something just now, didn't have time to say it."

Li Miao's mouth curled up, spitting out cold words.

"Do you know how Zheng Anqi died?"

Xu Fu wanted to retreat violently. As soon as her figure moved, she found that Li Miao's hands, which were clamped under her armpits, had suddenly opened at some point, hooking into her skin and flesh like tiger claws.

"He was stronger than me, harder than me, and his realm was not lower than mine."

Li Miao's claws hooked tighter and tighter, but until now he didn't have any thought of operating hard training or using true energy to protect his body. So while digging into Xu Fu's skin and flesh, his fingertips also began to collapse, his nails were discarded, revealing the pink tender flesh underneath.

"But he thought he understood me very well."

"Just like Lady Xu just now, he thought my reliance was not being afraid of death, not being afraid of injury, not being afraid of pain, and daring to fight for my life... To some extent, what they said was close."

"I am not afraid of injury and pain... I enjoy them."

"You are not afraid of pain, but you are not willing to be injured. Struggle is a means to you, not an end... This is my greatest reliance. I enjoy struggle, enjoy injury, and you, you are just not afraid."

Li Miao's eyes opened suddenly.

There was no spirit in them. His pupils were dilated to the limit, his focus was blurred, reflecting Xu Fu's face.

He had never broken free from 【Jizhao】 from beginning to end.

His five senses had always been in Xu Fu's grasp.

"I can't see you, can't hear you, can't smell you, can't touch you... But nature and life are closely related. You can influence my five senses, but you cannot influence my nature and life... So, the damage to nature and life can tell me where you are."

"The wound told me your position."

"Which direction my wound appears in, you are there; the more wounds and the heavier the injury, the closer you are to me; lacerations, penetrating wounds, compression wounds, stab wounds, abrasions, the length, depth, and time of the wounds told me your moves."

Xu Fu realized.

She finally understood how Li Miao cracked 【Jizhao】.

Wounds.

Li Miao deliberately withdrew all defensive means and lowered the strength of his body to the lowest. For a battle of this level, any aftermath was enough to leave hideous wounds on Li Miao.

Then, Li Miao used his understanding of "injury," which was unprecedented and would be difficult to have later, which was deep to the point of terror, and almost instinctive, to infer her movements.

"Heavenly Demon."

She said in a low voice.

"This was originally a false definition for the followers of the Shinto religion. Bodhidharma, Jianzhen, and Zhang Sanfeng actually shouldn't be matched with this name... But it is well-deserved to describe you."

"The demon root is deep."

"If Bodhidharma didn't have only a trace of nature left, if he was still clear-headed, he would never have handed his legacy to you... If you were born in any evil sect, it would be the greatest disaster for the world." ===== CHAPTER 626 =====
