Or to put it more accurately, that small figure attempted to escape before Li Buren, carrying along the illusionary shadow that continued its ceaseless chanting.
"Thousand Spirits Moving, Hundredfold Rupture of Spirit."
"Infinite, Boundless, Without Fault."
...
Mysterious sounds surrounded, and Li Buren surprisingly found that the two figures were indeed gradually fading, trying to evade his overwhelming Great Calamity.
The feeling for Li Buren was quite peculiar, for though they were close at hand, the desire for capture within him was far less intense than before.
He even developed a sense of indifference towards capturing the target.
It was evident that even with Li Buren's Dao Network body, he could not withstand the impact of that illusionary shadow's chanting.
Unfortunately, though the mysterious sound had the divine effect of disaster avoidance, it wasn't an omnipotent wishing machine.
