With no time to mount a full defense, Kenjaku's pupils contracted sharply. He only managed to hastily raise a thin layer of Cursed Energy over his body to block the blow.
Black Flash's terrifying destructive power crushed everything in its path. The fragile Cursed Energy barrier shattered, and the tremendous force poured into his face without restraint.
A loud, dull crack of breaking bone rang out!
Kenjaku flew backward as though he had been hit by a heavy truck, his back smashing through the blue-brick wall.
Boom-!
The thick alley wall was smashed open, leaving a huge, human-shaped breach. Fragments of brick and stone flew everywhere as dust billowed. Kenjaku hurtled through the wall and landed on the wide street outside, gouging a trail several meters long across the ground before barely coming to a stop.
He was utterly battered now, with none of his earlier composure left.
Having taken Qingxiao's Black Flash head-on, the entire side of his face was severely caved in and deformed. His facial bones had shattered and collapsed, torn flesh curled outward and seeped blood, and large numbers of teeth had broken and fallen out inside his mouth. Blood gushed from his mouth, and abrasions covered his body.
The instant he was sent flying, he felt no panic, only a trace of astonishment. The next second, reversed Cursed Energy surged wildly within him, racing through his body and precisely repairing broken bones and torn flesh.
At a speed visible to the naked eye, the exposed flesh slowly closed, his collapsed facial bones gradually returned to position, and the hideous wounds rapidly healed and scabbed over. The injuries that had just been fatal receded at an unbelievable speed.
In just a few breaths, he completely erased injuries severe enough to instantly kill a Grade 1 Sorcerer.
