<h4>Chapter 1051: Chapter 1045 Intense Battle</h4>


    "Can I really feel the changes around me with my heart?"


    Xue Bing was slightly stunned, but followed Lu Tianxing’s advice and slowly closed her eyes. It was pitch ck all around, and she couldn’t feel anything.


    "Officer Xue, rx your mind and observe your surroundings with your heart..."


    Lu Tianxing’s voice echoed in Xue Man’s ear, light yet resonating like a drum in the morning, causing Xue Bing to involuntarily follow his guidance. Gradually, the initially pitch-ck surroundings began to brighten with bits of firelight. She seemed to see the ripples of a gentle breeze and the traces of ants crawling on the ground. Everything became clear and visible—without using her eyes, she saw more clearly and meticulously.


    "So this is the martial artist’s perception."


    Xue Bing suddenly opened her eyes, her gaze falling on the middle-aged man: "You can plead guilty now."


    "Then let’s see if you have the capability."


    The short man snorted coldly, refusing to believe that Xue Man could grasp martial artists’ perception in such a short time. His eyes shed with a fierce re, his five fingers shaped like ws resembling an eagle’s talons. He turned into a shadow and lunged at Xue Bing again, aiming for her throat, while his eyes formed tiny whirlpools seemingly trying to draw in her very spirit.


    "Hmph, you think I’d fall for the same trick twice?"


    Seeing the short man’s movements, Xue Bing’s eyes flickered with mockery, closing her eyes per Lu Tianxing’s advice, using her perception to feel every action around her.


    With eyes closed, though unable to see anything, Xue Man felt as if she had a thorough grasp of her surroundings, clearly sensing the force of the short man’s wing wind. She slightly arched her back in a steel bridge pose and deftly dodged the short man’s grab. Then, supporting herself with her left hand on the ground, her right leg fiercely kicked at the short man’s stomach with a sharp wind.


    The short man did not hesitate at all, both hands fiercely pped towards Xue Bing’s right leg.


    "Bang!"


    Xue Bing’s right leg struck hard against the short man’s palm.


    "Ah!"


    Upon contact with Xue Bing’s leg, the short man instantly let out a miserable scream, his body exploding backward, his arm slightly trembling, emitting a roasted meat fragrance, which was evidently cooked by Xue Bing’s True Qi.


    The Fire Heaven Scripture implies cultivation of True Qiced with strong me aura. This was due to Xue Bing’s limited cultivation level; if she were to break through to the Earth level, she wouldn’t have merely cooked the middle-aged man’s hand but reduced it to ashes.


    Even so, the short man felt his hands burning painfully, searing with a piercing pain, causing hisplexion to distort even more.


    "How does it feel? That kick was for the victims you harmed, you scum."


    Xue Bing opened her eyes, coldly ring at the middle-aged man, without any hesitation, her figure shed like a ze towards the man, striking his shoulder ferociously.


    This palm strike resembled mes, carrying an extremely scorching aura.


    At this moment, the short man’s face changed color, realizing his cultivation technique was far inferior to Xue Bing’s, and his True Qi’s purity couldn’t match hers.


    Just as he intended to dodge, Xue Bing’s palm strike alreadynded hard on his shoulder.


    "Crack!"


    Apanied by the sound of cracking, the short man’s shoulder was directly crushed, releasing the aroma of roasted meat into the air.


    "Ah!"


    The short man let out a blood-curdling scream simr to a pig being ughtered, eyes filled with terror as he looked at Xue Bing, his figure shing, he actually charged directly towards the outside wall.


    "Trying to run? Get back here!"


    Xue Bing shouted angrily, her figure moving in several swift steps, catching up to the short man, her palm striking fiercely towards his back. The zing True Qi surged like waves, turning this space into a fiery realm, giving the illusion of being inside a furnace.


    Feeling the intense True Qi fluctuations behind him, desperation shed in the short man’s eyes. He stomped hard on the wall, used the momentum to sharply turn, and threw fierce punches towards Xue Bing’s head.


    Even if he’s going to die, he ns to take Xue Bing down with him.


    His fists struck out, causing the surrounding air to explode, and the fierce wind punched towards Xue Bing.


    Lu Tianxing had been watching all along. Upon witnessing this scene, his brows knit slightly; the short man’s actions clearly aimed to drag Xue Bing down with him. If those punchesnd on Xue Bing, she’s almost certainly doomed.


    Instinctively, Lu Tianxing wanted to intervene. But seeing the determined look in Xue Bing’s eyes, he hesitated and ultimately chose not to interfere, but to watch quietly.


    When Xue Bing observed the short man’s actions, her brows furrowed as well, her moves changing, directing her palm to meet the short man.


    "Is this chick nuts, tackling an intermediate Profound Level withter Profound Level? Trying to get herself killed?"


    Lu Tianxing watched Xue Bing’s action, feeling speechless. The gap between them was a minor realm, and the short man was clearly giving it his all. At this time, going head-to-head was akin to courting death.


    Lu Tianxing shook his head but didn’t verbalize his thoughts or aid Xue Bing. Instead, he shed behind her, intending to catch Xue Bing when she gets knocked flying.


    "Bang!"


    Hands and fists collided, Xue Bing felt as if struck by lightning. An overpowering force descended upon her, causing her to spit out blood and fly backward like a cut string kite.


    Seeing this, the short man’s eyes reflected murderous intent, ignoring Lu Tianxing standing behind, as he lunged directly at Xue Bing. He knew he wouldn’t survive today, but he was determined to take someone with him.


    Witnessing the short man’s actions, a bitter smile showed on Xue Bing’s face. She underestimated these martial artists, who werepletely different from the criminals she used to face. This kind of person attacked with lethal intent and would not relent until the opponent was dead.


    "Bang!"


    Just as Xue Bing prepared to forcefully gather True Qi, she suddenly felt herself collide against a softyer of True Qi. Her waist tightened as she was caught in someone’s embrace, and a face with a faint smile appeared within her view.


    Lu Tianxing held Xue Bing, observing the short man’s charge, his brows slightly furrowed. He raised his hand, casually pointing a finger at the short man’s fist.


    Boom!


    A stream of True Qi burst from Lu Tianxing’s fingertip, instantly distorting the middle-aged man’s arm like flesh through a meat grinder, spraying flesh around, revealing white bones, making him fly backward like a bomb, crashing into the wall creating arge hole. Hended more than ten meters away, body twitching twice, before looking at Lu Tianxing with disbelief, passing out directly.
