High-level martial arts: Starting with a heart of steel, stats crush everything.

"Don't rush, we Steel Bone Realm cultivators haven't even started yet, we don't need you."

A level six martial artist patted Chen Mo on the shoulder, picked up his weapon, and prepared to jump off the city wall.

But Chen Mo grabbed his head and pulled him back.

"?" The level six martial artist was completely bewildered. What had just happened? How did he end up back here?

"Step back, leave the rest to us."

As one of the top three in the national competition, Gu Feng's strength is far greater than that of a normal level six martial artist.

not to mention....

Too many people have died, and the high-end combat force of the entire Abyss Dawn City is almost gone. It's time for them to take on the main responsibility.

"I'm the fastest, leave the clearing to me."

Chen Mo stretched his body, took out the blood of the Chaotic Sea Beast, and poured it into his mouth.

With the activation of Perfect Steel Skin and Perfect Steel Blood, Chen Mo's defense, attack, speed, and cardiopulmonary function have been greatly improved.

"I'm leaving my back to you. Don't let me get ambushed."

Chen Mo's original speed was already 189 kilometers per hour, and after being amplified by the Perfect Steel Blood, Chen Mo's speed was close to 300 kilometers per hour.

That is, eighty meters per second!

Chen Mo glanced at his stats: his attack power had reached an astonishing 54163, and his defense power had skyrocketed to 26600!

Based on the current attack power, a single deliberate punch can deal up to 80% of his maximum health!

144 million real damage!

He jumped directly off the city wall and charged towards the crumbling Abyss Mother Tree.

"Follow me!" Gu Feng followed Chen Mo without hesitation.

Yang Zuo and Ma Wanglin followed closely behind, marking the first time their four-person team had truly acted together.

The surrounding scenery rushed past, and Chen Mo's speed reached its limit in an instant.

My heart was pounding, and my lungs were doing their best to absorb oxygen.

"Get out of here!"

After snapping the level-five abyss beast in half with a sweeping strike, Chen Mo charged forward like a locomotive.

With the warriors clearing the way, there weren't actually many abyssal beasts blocking Chen Mo's path.

Unfortunately, Chen Mo was too fast; the charged attack markers on those abyssal beasts were torn apart by his Phoenix Beak Dragon Fang Halberd before they could even appear.

Yang Qing, who was engaged in fierce fighting in the distance, also noticed the rapidly moving figure on the battlefield. When he realized who it was, he was completely stunned.

"What's this kid doing out here!"

"If something happens to him, wouldn't that Song Bin eat me alive?"

However, a battle at the Grandmaster level cannot tolerate even a moment of distraction. In that inconspicuous instant, Yang Qing's abdomen was pierced by a tentacle that looked like a steel whip!

Blood gushed out, and Yang Qing's liver was directly shredded!

"Damn it, I must have done something terrible in my past life!"

Yang Qing's eyes were bloodshot; it seemed he was preparing to shelve his sword.

"Gentle breeze and blade energy, empower me!"

Suddenly, Yang Qing's nine-ringed broadsword erupted with fierce blade energy, forcing back the Abyss Demon that had approached him.

With all his vital energy concentrated at his heart, Yang Qing used a desperate measure.

Transform your body into a blade!

"Hurry up, you little brats, I can't hold out much longer."

"If all else fails... I'll just have to self-destruct!"

Yang Qing went into a frenzy, his entire body enveloped in sword energy.

At this moment, Chen Mo had no time to care about Yang Qing in the distance; he was now only one step away from the Abyss Mother Tree.

Suddenly, a series of irritating murmurs reached his ears.

[Attention, host! You have entered a controlled state called "Dreaming," and all your attributes have decreased by 50%!]

"Under control?"

Chen Mo was stunned for a moment. No wonder the attacks of those martial artists looked so weak, and Master Huang's attacks became weaker and weaker towards the end.

It turns out that the power of the Abyss Mother Tree influenced them.

Gu Feng and the others who had been following behind Chen Mo also noticed that something was wrong with Chen Mo. His speed had slowed down considerably, and his qi and blood had become weak.

Just as they were about to rush forward to help, a layer of blood-red light suddenly erupted from Chen Mo's body, and he let out a roar that was not human.

"Fuck your Ragnarok!"

Chen Mo never expected that he would become so irritable after using Ragnarok.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. When Raf activates his ultimate and charges into the enemy formation without being affected by crowd control, his intelligence will drop significantly.

Similar to Highland Bloodline and Blood Rage, attributes are amplified, but intelligence is reduced.

This roar was awe-inspiring, and Chen Mo's attack power surged once again, transforming him into a human meat grinder as he charged into the horde of millions of beasts.

"Wait, isn't Chen Mo... a bit too aggressive?"

Gu Feng smashed a level-four abyss beast that lunged at him to death with a single blow, and asked Chen Mo, who was faster and more ruthless.

"I don't know. Our top priority is to help Chen Mo deal with those abyssal beasts behind him."

Ma Wanglin didn't care about any of that; the burning spear tip pierced the head of a level 5 abyss beast.

"Hurry up, we've fallen behind."

Yang Zuo was well aware of the importance of formation.

If we use an arrow as a metaphor, Chen Mo is the unstoppable, armor-piercing arrowhead, while they are the fletchings responsible for stabilizing the shaft.

"Understood!" After pinning down a level-four abyss beast that was trying to ambush Gu Feng, Ma Wanglin followed Yang Zuo's footsteps.

The closer Chen Mo got to the Mother Tree of the Abyss, the more corpses appeared around him.

There were even a few martial artists who weren't quite dead yet and were still struggling to self-destruct.

But Chen Mo doesn't have time to deal with them right now; his immediate priority is to cut down the Abyss Mother Tree.

"Six-Strike Demon-Slaying Halberd, Double Strike!"

Chen Mo's blood and qi erupted, and his body spun around with the force of swinging the halberd.

Puff puff!

The abyss beasts surrounding Chen Mo were instantly killed, and several level seven and eight abyss beasts were also sent flying by the double attack.

"No, we can't get through."

While fending off the attacks of the abyss beasts, Chen Mo kept an eye on the Abyss Mother Tree, which was right in front of him.

"Right, Flash!"

With a thought, Chen Mo's figure instantly appeared five meters away... in the horde of abyssal beasts.

"Damn it!"

Even though Chen Mo's current defense is as high as 26600, and attacks from Abyss Beasts below level six are completely ineffective against him, the closer he gets to the Abyss Mother Tree, the higher the level of the Abyss Beasts around him.

He is currently surrounded by hundreds of level 7 and 8 abyssal beasts, and his health is decreasing at a visible rate.

"Yes, pressure, this is the kind of pressure I need!"

Chen Mo's eyes lit up; he had finally found the pressure that could force him to break through the second barrier.

Without much hesitation, Chen Mo gripped the Phoenix Beak Dragon Tooth Halberd tightly in his hand.

"Demon Slayer, Six-Hit Combo!"

With a surge of violent blood energy, Chen Mo swung the Phoenix Beak Dragon Fang Halberd in his hand again and again.

Although his pace has slowed down considerably, it has its advantages.

That means you can freely mine steel amidst the horde of abyssal beasts!
