Chapter 624: Death Struggle

Danger.

Deadly danger.

Xu Fu hit horizontally with one palm, trying to smash Li Miao’s arm to break free from the clamp. But the palm edge collided with the elbow, and it was a *clang* that smashed onto the [Ten Thousand Phenomena] Qi.

"Too late!"

Xu Fu gritted his teeth.

He had already stepped into the [Ten Thousand Phenomena] Qi. Li Miao no longer needed to rely on injury to capture his movements, so he naturally didn't need to deliberately withdraw his defensive means... His reaction was fast enough, but he couldn't keep up with Li Miao’s premeditation!

"It’s coming!"

Xu Fu looked directly at Li Miao.

Attacking the heart was useless, and Li Miao had already grabbed him. Next, Li Miao would definitely launch an unprecedentedly violent offensive—from now on, it was the moment to decide life and death.

First breath!

Li Miao rushed forward violently. Xu Fu was caught off guard and was pulled by his left arm and pushed back several steps. Before he could react, Li Miao retreated violently again, and at the same time grabbed his right arm and pulled it violently, tearing his stance apart.

Then he punched him in the head!

Xu Fu raised his arm to block his head and took Li Miao’s smashing punch. The flesh on his arm was directly smashed into a dent, and blood overflowed from his mouth and nose.

After the previous struggle, Li Miao was already covered in bruises, but precisely because of this, he had already filled his body with [Ten Thousand Phenomena] Qi, and with the blessing of [Base Strength], in terms of brute force, Xu Fu could not contend with him no matter what... and as the struggle continued, the more severe Li Miao’s injuries were, the more violent his brute force would become.

Not to mention that Xu Fu’s Qi recovery speed was still being restricted.

"Three breaths!"

Xu Fu opened his red eyes.

"Just fighting his strengths like this, the more tragic the struggle, the weaker I become, and he becomes stronger, and the Qi recovery speed is restricted by more than half. After three breaths, I will be completely suppressed!"

"Within three breaths, no matter what the price, I must break free from his control!"

In an instant, taking advantage of Xu Fu not having adjusted his stance, Li Miao pulled Xu Fu’s arm violently again, tearing his stance apart again, and then a storm-like barrage of attacks fell on Xu Fu.

*Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!*—

The sound of hitting connected into a piece.

Xu Fu struggled to support, barely defending against most of Li Miao’s attacks, but was still grazed on the cheek by a punch.

*Boom!*

The power of the moves contained by the complete Heaven-Man realm exploded violently when it grazed Xu Fu’s cheek. The strength and Qi tore open the flesh, and there was also the infinite killing intent contained in the True Constancy realm that exploded together!

*Hum—*

Xu Fu’s eyes went dark, and then he woke up.

His left face had been completely torn open, revealing the white cheekbone, but the damage caused by the pain was secondary. The key was the pure killing intent erupted from Li Miao’s True Constancy realm... which almost destroyed his mind!

If it weren't for his Silent Illumination realm being the only one in the world that used nature to supplement nature, he really wouldn't have been able to wake up in an instant!

At this time, the first breath had just passed.

Xu Fu had already almost lost.

"Can’t be hesitant anymore!"

Xu Fu’s eyes suddenly turned cold, his mind sank into his body, and he poured eighty percent of his existing Qi into [Silent Illumination]—this was the only means Li Miao couldn't break free from at this stage.

Illusion!

Li Miao had closed his eyes after the struggle began, but with Xu Fu’s movement, he suddenly frowned, and the fist that was constantly smashing toward Xu Fu’s abdomen also slowed down by a bit.

An instant later, two streams of blood spurted out of his ears.

Clearly, his eardrums had been broken!

The only Profound Observation divine ability in ancient and modern times that connected to the nature cultivation realm was naturally not just about controlling the five senses... The ordinary Silent Illumination realm could only operate illusions. As long as the caster lifted the illusion, all injuries received in the illusion would vanish.

But as Li Miao said, nature and life are closely related.

[Silent Illumination], really could kill in the illusion!

In the illusion, dozens of monsters of different shapes suddenly appeared around Li Miao, circling his head and screaming crazily.

Yamabiko, Uwan, Narikama, Isshō-hō...

All were monsters related to noise in Japanese legends, manifested by Xu Fu, screaming together, instantly shattering Li Miao’s eardrums, and also affecting some small organs inside the ears, causing Li Miao’s center of gravity to become chaotic.
