Chapter 1056: Winds Stop
Xu Li's final desperate struggle was in fact to shatter his own dharma idol, then gather together that shattered demonic qi and once more crash it toward the young martial artist's towering dharma idol, but the result was very poor.
The demonic qi swept upward, only to meet the young martial artist's incomparably vast qi descending. That final surge of demonic qi collapsed at the very first contact, shattering completely, with no room left to struggle or resist.
Feeling that powerful and terrifying qi descending, Xu Li had already returned to his normal size. He merely looked up once, then the corners of his mouth curved slightly upward.
Since he was destined to die, there was nothing more to say. If he had to accept it, then he accepted it.
"The two of you should leave quickly. It's just that even if you don't die today, you may well die tomorrow. Take care of yourselves."
In his final moments, Xu Li looked north, toward the two figures in the distance. He knew very well that so long as those two no longer wished to continue the bitter fight, Chen Chao would not continue pursuing them.
But once war had begun, he would not be the only one to die.
"I'll be waiting for you all below."
Xu Li spoke one last time through voice transmission. After saying those words, without the slightest hesitation, he used the last of the demonic qi within his body to directly detonate his body, turning into a cloud of blood mist.
