Bright!

Every feather is there. After the thousands of feathers on Akabane's body are burned out, what is left are thousands of eyeballs.

Golden eyeballs…

Xu Le, who was staying in mid-air, and Chi Xiao, who was standing in front of Chi Yu, both felt something was wrong.

These eyeballs are shaking.

Chaos, disorder, no clear goals, but you will glance at them from time to time...

Every gaze seemed to be a death stare.

This level of concentration is no longer a normal legendary power.

In front of him, Akabane's state was not something that normal legendary masters could use.

This is the power of the gods.

"Chixiao, come to me."

Chi Xiao had no time to respond verbally, so he could only wrap his back with a large amount of metal to defend himself.

Then it directly becomes an element and becomes a part of the metal, drilling towards Xu Le.

And Xu Le has already opened the Dark Door, waiting for Chi Xiao's arrival.

There was no way, the attack in front of them was no longer something they could handle.

Although this pure energy attack also has certain rules, the faded fire can only eliminate the effects of those rules and cannot reduce the energy impact.

There were thousands of death stares, and neither he nor Chi Xiao had any chance of surviving.

Can only run.

"quick!"

"coming."

Buzz!

Xu Le grabbed Chi Xiao's arm and threw her into the door of darkness.

Before he could enter the Dark Portal, the death gaze attack had already arrived.

Tear!

Xu Le felt like his body was torn apart at the waist. It felt like being pulled and torn apart by two large trucks.

There is no room for resistance at all...

However, the effect of the Substitution Technique quickly repaired his body.

Turning over and entering the dark door, Xu Le closed the dark door with lingering fear and fled from here.

A brutal battle...

At least Xu Le thinks so.

…

On the Soul-Eating Tree, Chi Xiao was lying on the small wooden bed that Xu Le had made for her before, taking off her armor.

Clear lacerated wounds appeared all over the body, and all of these wounds were fine and small.

Obviously, the previous death gaze also affected Chi Xiao.

But Chi Xiao was not seriously injured.

There are two reasons. One is because her strength level and life essence itself exceed Xu Le.

The defense against attacks like Death Gaze is stronger.

The second point is that Chixiao's Great Flame Realm now also has the prototype of her rules.

The flame halo of the Great Flame Realm can offset part of the effect of the death gaze.

Therefore, Chi Xiao was not fatally injured under the attention of the death gaze, which was not lasting.

But if exposed to the gaze for too long, there is still a risk of death.

The effect of thousands of death stares gathered together is no longer something that the legendary level can handle.

Chi Xiao was wiping the blood and wounds, but Xu Le had slowly arrived.

Xu Le was stunned for a moment when he saw Chi Xiao on the bed, and then got up as if nothing had happened.

"You don't even pretend to be pretending now?" Chi Xiao stared at Xu Le, his eyes a little unkind.

What did Xu Le say before... Although no one has revealed many things, they can at least pretend.

Now he doesn't even bother to pretend, which makes Chi Xiao a little unacceptable.

Meow! ~

Ding Ke, who had been left on the Soul-Eating Tree by Xu Le, climbed onto Chixiao's bed and barked "meow" at Xu Le.

He signaled Xu Le to get out of here.

However, Xu Le just raised his hand slightly, thought about it, and still had no explanation.

He turned his head silently and recalled the scene just now.

Um……

Like Chi Xiao, she was injured, and Xu Le was actually injured too.

When he unbuttoned his coat, there was an obvious scar on his back, horizontally.

The wound almost tore the skin and flesh, and the bones of the lumbar vertebrae were clearly visible.

An injury of this degree may even leave hidden dangers.

Chi Xiao saw the wound on Xu Le's back and immediately realized that this might be the attack he suffered when Xu Le asked him to leave first and he stayed behind.

His attitude changed instantly, and he even felt a little guilty.

"Xu Le? Are you okay?"

"You said this, it's actually not bad." Xu Le pointed to the wound on his back and shook his head slightly.

Looking at his relaxed and comfortable look, I almost had the words "It doesn't matter" written on his face.

Chi Xiao frowned. Although Xu Le looked very relaxed, such a deep wound might damage his nerves.

The position of his lumbar spine was not easy for him to handle.

"Come here, let me help you deal with it."

"Uh, okay."

Seeing that Chi Xiao wanted to help him treat his wounds, Xu Le had no intention of refusing.

We are all children of the Jianghu. We are in the Jianghu and we can’t help ourselves...

While Chi Xiao was helping him treat his wounds, Xu Le's thoughts were already drifting away. Because he had no intention of looking back, he even entered an ethereal state.

Then think about whether Chi Xiao is wearing armor now...

"There shouldn't be time to deal with wounds or have conversations."

Xu Le rubbed his chin and suddenly heard Chi Xiao say from behind:

"Didn't your life-substitution technique work just now? You were so seriously injured."

"It took effect, but it was penetrated. You also know that the technique of substitution has a limit of damage it can withstand." Xu Le said truthfully.

Chi Xiao behind him nodded.

"Did we just... lose?"

Win or lose?

Xu Le thought about the battle with Akabane.

Akabane's body is evenly matched with Chixiao's, while the Eye of Death has been entangled with him.

He smashed the Eye of Death, creating an opportunity for Chi Xiao, and then Chi Xiao defeated Akabane with a one-hit kill.

But later on, Akabane's Thousand Eyes form felt like something was not quite right.

Xu Le could clearly feel that it was not the power of a level 7 legend, it was definitely the power of a god.

so……

"Theoretically, I cracked the Eye of Death, and you found a chance to defeat Akabane's Feather head-on. We should be considered a winner."

Xu Le's theory made Chi Xiao laugh.

"Is your argument consoling? We don't even have the possibility to resist the final front-eye attack.

The gap has reached an unstoppable level. If you hadn't had the means to escape, I would have died on the spot.

In this case, how can it be considered a win or a loss? "

As Chi Xiao spoke, his tone became a little depressed.

Yes, I had thought before that I could break through myself and reach level 8 by facing Akabane directly.

But as the battle progressed, she found that many times things were not as smooth as she imagined.

She had no way to defeat Akabane quickly. In the end, she had to rely on Xu Le's interference and the two of them joined forces to find the opportunity.

How can one win this kind of battle?

"You can't say that... Hey, I still judge the outcome based on the results. Don't you want to hear it?"

Unlike Chi Xiao's kind of eccentric person, Xu Le is an optimistic person.

So when you see your companions are unhappy, you will find ways to make your companions happy.

Just like Chi Xiao now, Xu Le felt that she should be given some guidance.

So as not to ruin your Taoist mind.

Xu Le also hopes that Chi Xiao will be promoted to level 8 as soon as possible, so that he can continue to hug his thighs...

Chi Xiao was silent for a moment, and she guessed that Xu Le might want to comfort her.

Her original thought was that if she lost, she would lose, it was no big deal.

She had lost to Jidu before, and everything she said after losing was just an excuse. Seizing the time to practice was more important than anything else.

In the past, things like comfort would have been nonsense.

Is it necessary to listen to nonsense? of course not.

But now Chi Xiao just wants to listen to Xu Le's nonsense... and see what tricks he can come up with.

Well, just to listen, nothing else.

"Then tell me."

"From a consequentialist perspective, we can almost say that we have won..."

"..."

The two fell into silence until Ding Ke let out a somewhat stiff meow.

"Meow?"

With Ding Ke's meow, the silence between the two was broken again.

Xu Le quickly explained:

"Do you think I'm talking awkwardly?"

"yes."

"Actually, that's not the case, because according to the results, we would have won completely."

"How to say?"

"First of all, we cracked the opponent's moves, and then although he was injured, it was not serious. Akabane's damage was several times, even a hundred times, that of us...

Finally, and most importantly, we live and he dies. "

Hearing what Xu Le said, Chi Xiao, who was originally indifferent, frowned slightly at this time.

"The Akabane you are talking about...is he really dead?"

The result of the two men's fight with Akabane was to escape, so they did not see Akabane's final outcome.

Chi Xiao's question made Xu Le think for a while, and then he answered:

"I think... he should really be dead."

"Why do you think so?"

"Death Gaze is a very powerful ability that can directly hurt me and force me to use my best moves.

Generally speaking, an ability of this level should be considered a legendary power, right? "

"Well, what next."

"The death gaze corresponds to the eye of death. I cut off one of the eyes of death, which caused a lot of damage to Akabane.

He also showed his flaws due to this injury and was defeated by you.

If you think about it, if a death eye is broken, it will cause such heavy damage. Does this mean that the death eye itself is an important organ? "

"Yes."

“Vital organs are actually equivalent to heavy burdens.

Akabane has the aura of a god and may be the source of divine evil. He has some of the full moon's godly powers, but he is definitely not a god himself.

A level 7 legendary creature cannot afford hundreds or thousands of eyes of death.

His final Thousand Eyes form was definitely not a form he could withstand under normal circumstances.

This is beyond biological limits.

Logically speaking, our final attack has killed him, so I think..."

Xu Le gave up at this moment, but Chi Xiao was already fascinated by what he heard and immediately urged:

"What do you think? Tell me."

“Well, I think Akabane’s final form is actually a manifestation of the full moon’s divine power.

That was the power of the gods. Akabane's chaotic state and broken body were absolutely impossible to withstand the state of the full moon.

So I think he should be dead.

So, if he dies and we live, of course we win. "

Xu Le's analysis is well-founded and convincing.

At least Chi Xiao was convinced, and that was enough.

"Okay, I'm convinced by you."

"Hahaha, you feel like you have won, don't you feel much better?"

"really."

Chi Xiao also laughed, feeling really happy.

For a person like her, jokes and gossip can hardly make her mood fluctuate.

Only victory in the battle can make her feel happy.

Naturally, he was unhappy when he lost just now, but now that Xu Le said he had won, his mood would of course become better.

"Okay, the wound has been stitched up."

Chi Xiao patted Xu Le's back, indicating that his wound had been sutured.

I have to say that although Chi Xiao gives people a rough feeling most of the time, she is actually quite delicate. After all, she is a woman.

She sutured the wound on Xu Le's back very well. The slight fire treatment was very comfortable and did not make Xu Le feel any pain.

After suturing the wound, he stood up immediately, turned around and said thanks:

"Thank you very much."

Xu Le looked upright, but he was already gathering information quickly from the corner of his eyes.

good! ~

Snapped! ~

…

In the world of the Soul-Eating Tree, the two rested for a long time.

Let's take care of each other's injuries and then chat.

When both of them were in a more relaxed state, Chi Xiao was ready to talk to Xu Le about the problems he had hidden in his heart.

The time Cangming agreed with them was three days later.

For all of them, the plan to lure the gods three days later was a crucial moment.

In a real sense, participate in the war between Guyinduo and Hongyue.

The key to whether the son of Gu Yinduo can be fundamentally weakened in the end and achieve a balance between the forces of both sides is here.

Whether it is for her, Xu Le, or teacher Cangming, three days later will be the most important moment.

Should not be missed.

So before that, many things should be discussed and explained clearly.

Otherwise, there would be no way to cooperate on many things, let alone things like hunting gods together.

"Xu Le, do you have any opinions about my teacher Cangming?"

Xu Le glanced at Chi Xiao, who had already changed into light red plain clothes.

Well, not bad.

"..."

"Xu Le? Xu Le? Are you listening to me?"

"Uh? What?"

"I'm asking you what you think of Teacher Cangming."

"Ah, the little old man is pretty good." Xu Le's answer seemed a bit perfunctory, and Chi Xiao could clearly feel this perfunctoryness.

"Can you tell the truth? Or tell me something practical for you."

"That's your teacher..." Xu Le waved his hand.

He still doesn't have a clear idea of ​​the relationship between Chi Xiao and Cang Ming.

It would be bad if you give inappropriate answers without fully understanding the situation.

Even though he and Chi Xiao are now very good friends and companions, it is better not to touch certain Ni Lin, lest they become no longer friends.

Seeing that Xu Le was unwilling to respond directly to his question, Chi Xiao knew better.

She knew that with Xu Le's vigilance, it would be impossible for Xu Le to tell the truth unless she revealed some information.

At least he won't say anything valuable.

"The teacher is not as nice as he appears."
