Chapter 556 Laughed
A clash between two innate masters is easy to determine a winner, but killing the other is difficult. If one cannot win, they can run away, and if one wants to run, the other will find it very difficult to stop them.

However, it is obvious that Li Dachui and Jiang Qian are now confined in such a small space that, let alone running away, a slight misstep would not be a matter of victory or defeat, but a true test of life and death.

Even though a master with innate talent is not easy to kill, as long as you keep hitting them, you can still beat them to death.

Even a master with innate talent is still human, not a god.

Both of them have enough confidence in themselves.

Li Dachui's confidence stemmed from two sources. First, the Phoenix Flame was a technique derived from the unified energy of heaven and earth, which strongly suppressed the inherent superiority of the Phoenix Flame. Second, it came from his incredibly rich combat experience accumulated since childhood.

Don't underestimate this.

In martial arts cultivation, while realm is important, experience is equally indispensable.

In the martial arts world, it's common to hear stories of someone defeating another person who is a level above them. After excluding the element of luck, the victors are usually the ones with more combat experience.

For players of the same level, the one with more experience has a significant advantage.

Jiang Qian is indeed a master of innate skill, but her background means she is destined to never fight to the death. Her realm is indeed very high and her cultivation is profound, but how can her experience in fighting compare to mine?

Back then, his adoptive father, Zhou Zhi, abandoned him at the tender age of fifteen in the wilderness, leaving him to fend for himself. In those years, he, Gu Xiaoman, Fang Xiaomao, and the others truly crawled out of piles of corpses time and time again.

It was later confirmed that when those extremely dangerous situations occurred, Zhou Zhi was actually always on the sidelines, and he would have intervened if his own life were in danger.

But at that time, I didn't know that I hated Zhou Zhi.

Those numerous near-death experiences forged Li Dachui's unparalleled combat skills.

With these two points as a foundation, Li Dachui felt that he had at least a 70-80% chance of winning this battle.

Jiang Qian also possesses strong self-confidence.

She told He Han that she had already seen the gateway to spiritual travel, and she wasn't exaggerating.

In her view, once one's cultivation reaches their level, combat has returned to its essence. Any fancy techniques are just fluff; only overwhelming true qi cultivation is the most fundamental reason for victory.

Moreover, such a confined space is even more advantageous to oneself.

At this point, words are meaningless; only actions speak louder than words. Only after one side has been completely defeated can the next step be discussed.

Li Dachui launched a preemptive attack.

Jiang Qian greeted him with a cold laugh.

Li Dachui moved with the grace of a fluttering butterfly.
Jiang Qian remained calm and composed, like a pillar against a raging torrent. No matter how many moves he made, she would only use one. Her goal was to force Li Dachui to confront her head-on, and to use her superior cultivation to crush him.

Li Dachui is actually older than Jiang Qian, but his martial arts skills are just infuriating.
It is more common for people to grow old without increasing their cultivation.

The two innate masters had reached an extremely abnormal level of control over their true energy. Even in such a confined space, not a single trace of true energy leaked out, ensuring that every wisp of true energy landed on the other. After exchanging blows for a while, even the swivel chair remained completely unaffected.

To an untrained observer, the two appeared to be fighting someone with absolutely no internal energy cultivation.

Only true experts can understand the perilous nature of the battle between these two.

Jiang Qian's eyes grew brighter with each battle. Earlier, simply being beside Li Dachui had allowed her to sense the Phoenix Fire's exuberant energy, but now, as she exerted her full strength, this feeling became increasingly pronounced. After fighting for a while, her true energy showed no signs of weakening; on the contrary, it grew stronger. The signs of the bottleneck that had been hindering her loosening became clearer and clearer. If that bottleneck were a thick layer of ice, Jiang Qian could now see crisscrossing cracks appearing on it.

The Qi of Heaven and Earth is truly a super healer. Perhaps if we fight for a little longer, the ice surface will collapse with a roar. Even if it doesn't allow me to advance to the Divine Travel realm, at least it will allow me to push open that door and stretch my neck to see the scenery inside.

If the door is opened, how far are we from entering the inner sanctum?
She became more and more excited as she played.

Blue sparks burst forth from her small fist, swirling around the two of them.

Li Dachui's movements are getting slower and slower.

Originally, he wanted to use his rich combat experience to suppress his opponent, but Jiang Qian was too clever and ignored Li Dachui's elaborate traps.

Those seemingly obvious, fleeting flaws were all traps deliberately set by Li Dachui for her; those with poor eyesight wouldn't even notice them.

No matter how much Li Dachui tried to wink at her, his opponent completely ignored him, determined to force him to compete with her in terms of cultivation level.

This is no longer interesting.

The room was filled with dancing blue sparks.

A surge of unparalleled excitement welled up inside Li Dachui, a feeling of wanting to devour his opponent whole.

It's like a person who has been starving for countless days suddenly seeing a roast duck that smells delicious in front of them.
Li Dachui is not a lecher.
Even though Jiang Qian's face was flushed and she looked charming and alluring,
This feeling of wanting to devour comes from the deepest desire of the Qi of Heaven and Earth he cultivates.

It seems that the countless sparks flying in the sky are an unparalleled tonic for the universe.

Li Dachui, who was moving erratically, suddenly stopped.

He decided to follow his deepest desires.

As he slowed down, Jiang Qian's small fist instantly magnified in his eyes. She raised her hand, opened her palm, and clenched it tightly.

Li Dachui's five fingers accurately grasped Jiang Qian's fist.

Then, another fist came.

In the same way, another fist also landed in Li Dachui's big hand.

The starlight suddenly subsided and entered Jiang Qian's body, then transformed into surging true energy, which flowed like a tide from her two small fists towards Li Dachui.

Using her superior internal energy cultivation, Jiang Qian overwhelmed her opponent and finally seized the best opportunity.

She looked up at Li Dachui, a happy smile spreading across her face.

At this point, it's a matter of who wins; there's no room for shortcuts.

Li Dachui did not retaliate, not because he did not want to, but because at this moment, the Qi of Heaven and Earth suddenly contracted back into his body, forming a vortex. The Phoenix Fire True Qi that surged into his body like a tide was immediately drawn into the vortex and spun around, then drifted towards the deepest part of the vortex.

Li Dachui laughed.

Jiang Qian's expression changed.
