This battle, whether for Li Yuan or Qing Hancheng, was not just an ordinary duel with the objective of "victory or death."
Much like the Sixth Grade breaking into the Fifth Grade, the two need to thoroughly understand each other in their clash, to merge each other's Talisman Seed, and now these two have somewhat of that same intention...
Defeating the opponent makes one's flesh and blood power more skilled, more in harmony;
Destroying the opponent makes one's will more firm, the belief more perfect;
Through fierce bloodshed, one understands oneself and the opponent, thereby exploring unknown new Domains together.
The two need to battle, to kill each other, but would not directly attack; instead, they were "a grand feast" for each other, waiting to see who would consume whom in the end.
