Our World Is Too Narrow

"————"

In an instant, the cold, aurora-like blade light was completely imprinted in Fang Li's pair of Ice-Blue Demon Eyes, filling Fang Li entire field of vision.

Just as Ryougi Shiki said, this strike was entirely left to the body to react to the attack. Even though the attack speed was exactly the same as Fang Li's, the reaction speed was completely superior.

Faced with such a strike, Fang Li was powerless to defend himself.

No, to be precise, Fang Li had no idea whether the blade of light was aimed at the moment he was defending, slashing down at the Death Lines on his Moon Blade.

If that's the case, the outcome will be decided the moment Fang Li defends.

Under these circumstances, Fang Li chose to abandon defense. With a "splash," his foot landed heavily on the sea, causing a splash, while he tried his best to dodge.

"Whoosh—!"

Amidst the sharp whistling of the wind, the cold glint of the blade grazed Fang Li's chest before landing in empty space.

Fang Li touched the water's surface with his toes, and his body swayed lightly like a leaf blown by a strong wind, before finally landing and regaining his footing.

Even so, Fang Li did not let his guard down for a moment. His Ice-Blue Demon Eyes were fixed on Ryougi Shiki, and he gripped the Moon Blade tightly, always on guard against any sudden attack from the other party.

However, to Fang Li's surprise, Ryougi Shiki was no longer as aggressive as before. Instead, she slowly relaxed her tense body and lowered her hand that was gripping the Moon Blade.

Thus, the two identical pairs of Magic Eye met, their gazes, capable of capturing death, intersecting.

Seeing that the Ryougi Shiki had suddenly stopped, Fang Li frowned and couldn't help but speak up.

"What? You're not fighting anymore?"

Upon hearing this, Ryougi Shiki neither confirmed nor denied it, and simply uttered this ambiguous statement.

"Haven't you found it yet?"

This statement sounds like it's expressing sympathy for something.

Of course, Ryougi Shiki's words contained neither sympathy nor pity, only an inhuman indifference.

However, even though that was the case, Fang Li felt that something must have happened that made her worthy of sympathy.

It's as if something decisive has happened, but you haven't realized it at all.

Just as Fang Li was about to ask for clarification, Fang Li expression suddenly changed slightly.

It was only then that Fang Li realized this.

My body is getting colder and colder.

No, it's not that you're getting cold; it's that your body temperature is dropping at an alarming rate.

At that moment, Fang Li felt as if he had been thrown into an ice cave.

My skin is getting cold little by little.

The internal organs are gradually becoming indifferent.

My head is getting frozen little by little.

The blood flow is gradually slowing down.

The continuous loss of body temperature results in an alarming depletion of physical strength.

No, that's not right either.

What's disappearing isn't physical strength, but vitality.

"Ugh...!"

Finally, Fang Li felt his legs give way and, in a moment of weakness, he knelt on the sea.

If Fang Li still doesn't know what happened by this point, then he doesn't deserve to have the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception.

"I see..."

Fang Li's face had completely lost its color, leaving only a frighteningly pale face. He raised his head and looked straight ahead, landing on Ryougi Shiki.

Immediately, Fang Li began to speak, word by word.

Did you kill my body temperature?

In other words, Fang Li did not dodge that slash.

Although he wasn't hit in the body, the Death Lines on Fang Li's body were still cut.

That Death Lines is precisely the Death Lines of body temperature.

Ryougi Shiki neither confirmed nor denied this, but simply picked up her Moon Blade, lifted her foot, and walked step by step toward Fang Li.

"Everything has its own flaws, which are generally invisible to ordinary people, but we can see them clearly."

"Including concepts, spaces, diseases, and the future, all of these have their own flaws, and since that's the case, we who have these eyes can naturally see them."

"You know this clearly, but just knowing it is useless. If you can't understand these concepts yourself, then no matter how vast or extensive this ocean is, you are just possessing it, not using it."

Indeed, Fang Li's ocean of souls can record all deaths, and should therefore be able to kill all things.

However, even so, if Fang Li himself does not believe that he can kill these things, he will not be able to see the Death Lines of these things.

"Like a telephone, if it can still make calls, then it appears 'alive' to us, and we can clearly see its Death Lines."

"But if one day it stops communicating, then we'll consider it 'dead,' and we'll never see its Death Lines again."

"Even though this ocean clearly records its death, allowing us to clearly understand its death, our consciousness and understanding still affect the range, performance, and target of our eyes."

To paraphrase Orange, "Our world is too narrow."

Fang Li's vision had become somewhat blurred, and he could barely see his surroundings, nor could he see the Ryougi Shiki that was gradually approaching him.

However, Fang Li clearly heard Ryougi Shiki's words.

It must be said that Ryougi Shiki was right.

After all, the other party is Ryougi Shiki the mental image of Ryougi Shiki in Fang Li's mind and the essential embodiment of his ocean of souls. In terms of understanding death and using the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, Fang Li is far beyond Fang Li reach.

Fang Li has been constantly honing his Assassination Arts in order to unleash the power of the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception.

Just as Ryougi Shiki said, the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception are powerful, but they are invincible if they can hit the target, otherwise they are just decorations.

Having clearly understood this, Fang Li naturally had to work hard to hone his skills in order to unleash the power of the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception.

Now, Fang Li's combat skills have been fully developed. He has not only mastered the Seven Nights Assassination Technique perfectly, but also has a complete understanding of Assassination Arts from ancient times to the present.

In that case, it's time to develop the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception and take myself to the next level.

At this moment, Ryougi Shiki finally came to Fang Li's side.

Fang Li looked up, only to see a pair of Ice-Blue Demon Eyes staring down at him, as if they could see through all his weaknesses.

Finally, Fang Li heard these words.

"For you to own this ocean now is quite a luxury."

"If you don't quickly grasp the true nature of this ocean, you might really die..."

As those words were spoken, Fang Li's consciousness began to wane.
