Seizing the brief pause in the Taotie's attack, Li Yu caught his breath and looked at Qi Shuangshuang, mentally transmitting, "Shopkeeper, what on earth is this thing? Why can't it be killed? Could it truly be immortal?"
Qi Shuangshuang's expression was somewhat grave. Previously, she was uncertain about what kind of monster this Taotie was, yet after this extended battle, she finally discerned its true nature.
Observing the evident seriousness on the foxface of Li Yu, Qi Shuangshuang couldn't help but sigh: "He's not wrong; it is indeed immortal.
This creature is a monster born from the malevolence in human hearts. You see its current form resembling the Taotie, but in fact, it has no physical form, or rather, its true form is the evil intent in human hearts.
The black smoke is the aggregation of human malice. Each time we severely injure it, it's like eliminating a part of the collected malice, but as long as there is enough malice to replenish it, it naturally recovers.
