Achieving physical sainthood begins with the Iron Shirt technique!

An extremely terrifying pressure descended from the sky.

Lu Chen's burly body, covered with twelve layers of iron-gray "Iron Shirt" skin, carried the terrifying momentum of his fall, and his two large feet firmly landed on the broad back of the armored rhinoceros directly below him.

"boom!"

There was no booming sound of clashing spells, only the sound of pure compression. The second-tier demonic beast, weighing three thousand jin, couldn't even utter a miserable howl.

The massive vertebra, as thick as refined iron, snapped instantly upon contact.

The violent force pierced through the rhinoceros's thick hide without any resistance, reaching its internal organs. The massive demonic body collapsed with a crash, its thick limbs buckling and breaking in the mud.

The immense pressure exploded inside the rhinoceros's abdomen, completely shattering its internal organs. Extremely thick blood and mud, mixed with fragments of internal organs, gushed out from the beast's nostrils and mouth, staining all the withered leaves within several feet red.

The heavy cavalryman riding on the rhinoceros was so disoriented by the immense inertia that he didn't even realize what was happening.

The scream was still stuck in his throat.

Lu Chen didn't even glance at him. His left arm suddenly shot up. The thick arm, wrapped with centuries-old black iron chains, swung horizontally with an extremely violent howling sound.

"when!"

A deafening thud.

There were absolutely no techniques involved; it was all just a brutal outpouring of force. The heavy helmet, forged from black iron, couldn't even withstand a moment of resistance before being smashed and dented inwards.

The head inside was smashed into a pile of mush. The headless corpse tumbled off the collapsed rhinoceros's back.

The dozens of heavy cavalrymen around him were furious.

Normally, they followed Chen Yuanshan to suppress rogue cultivators and slaughter demonic beasts, always crushing their opponents with an absolutely elite force. This savage scene of someone being smashed to pieces, helmet and all, completely ignited the fighting instincts of these martial artists.

Dozens of people roared in unison.

Without any further instructions, dozens of heavy, sharp black iron spears streaked through the air, all aimed at Lu Chen's unsuspecting broad back, and stabbed forward with extreme ruthlessness.

"Jingle bells!"

An extremely dense series of metallic clanging sounds echoed through the woods.

Those black iron spears, which could easily pierce through the leather armor of high-level demonic beasts, stabbed fiercely into Lu Chen's skin, which gleamed with a dark metallic luster.

No spiritual energy shield was activated.

The flesh and skin of someone who had reached the twelfth level of the Ultimate Path had become incredibly hard. The sharp spearhead only managed to create a large number of extremely bright sparks as it grazed Lu Chen's back.

Sparks flew everywhere, starkly contrasting against the dim miasma forest.

Dozens of black iron spears failed to leave even the faintest white mark on Lu Chen's back!

The cavalrymen gripping their spears paled. The sensation they felt wasn't of flesh and blood being pierced, but rather of striking a block of extremely cold, black iron that hadn't melted for tens of thousands of years.

The enormous recoil force was transmitted wildly back along the ironwood shaft of the spear.

Several cavalrymen's hands split open on the spot, blood flowing down their palms. A crisp cracking sound came from their wrist joints, which dislocated instantly, and they could barely hold onto their heavy spears.

Before they could withdraw their spears...

Lu Chen suddenly turned around.

The ultimate furnace within his body was completely ignited, and the frenzied pure yang qi and blood surged wildly through his meridians and blood vessels, creating a roaring sound like a great river rushing across the desolate open space.

Lu Chen didn't waste any words.

He reached out his large hands, his five fingers suddenly closing, and gripped the ironwood poles below the spearheads of the two nearest spears.

On his two extremely thick arms, the veins bulged out, and the muscles were stretched to their limit.

Lu Chen planted his feet firmly in the mud, then used his waist and abdomen to pull himself violently towards his chest.

A completely irrational burst of brute force.

"Bang!" The two cavalrymen holding the ends of their spears, whose heavy armor weighed several hundred pounds, were actually pulled off their stirrups by this irresistible force.

Both feet are off the ground.

The two, along with their armor, were forcibly pulled into the air and slammed headlong into Lu Chen's direction without any chance to resist.

Lu Chen didn't dodge at all.

He stood there, letting the two steel bodies, each weighing several hundred pounds, crash straight into his chest.

Just as the two were about to collide, Lu Chen's outstretched arms, carrying the force to split mountains and shatter rocks, brutally and violently closed inward.

Two arms transformed into the hardest steel gates, tightly trapping the two cavalrymen between them.

"Snap!!!"

The extremely sharp sound of twisting iron, mixed with the muffled sound of flesh and bone being crushed, echoed jarringly through the woods.

The heavy armor, forged from black iron, deformed under the immense force. The rivets connecting the armor shattered and scattered in all directions.

Fresh blood, bits of flesh, and even white bone fragments gushed out with a hissing sound from the gaps in the forcibly squeezed and twisted iron sheet.

The two sets of Xuan Tie heavy armor, which originally had amazing protective capabilities, along with the people inside, were forcibly kneaded by Lu Chen into two lumps of iron with flesh and blood flowing out.

Lu Chen loosened his grip.

Two lumps of scrap metal, no longer recognizable as human, crashed heavily into the muddy water.

The dull impact made the ground beneath their feet tremble violently.

The remaining heavy cavalry, who had originally intended to surround and kill, were filled with overwhelming terror. They desperately pulled on the reins, trying to turn the armored rhinoceros around and get away from this barbarian who killed with his bare hands.

However, within the ancient forbidden realm of the fifteen-zhang-long town's stele.

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth was completely drained away.

The martial arts internal energy they used to power their armor had completely stagnated. The heavy armor they usually wore, which was light and comfortable and which they were proud of, now regained its terrifying weight.

These hundreds of pounds of dead iron became the most deadly cage restricting their speed.

Even taking a step back is difficult, let alone running away.

Lu Chen moved.

He transformed into a tiger unleashed from its cage, exuding a suffocating sense of oppression as he crashed directly into the heavily armored formation that was caught in a dilemma.

There are no unnecessary martial arts techniques or routines.

Pure, extreme crushing.

With a slam of his left fist, a heavy iron shield engraved with defensive magic arrays shattered into pieces on the spot, with the fragments of iron embedding themselves in the chest of the cavalryman behind the shield.

With a sweeping right leg, the thick foreleg bone of an armored rhinoceros was kicked in two, and the massive beast fell miserably, crushing the cavalryman on its back to death.

Lu Chen completely released the suppression of the high temperature in his body.

Scalding hot, pure yang energy burst forth from his body. The blood that splattered from the cavalry and demonic beasts, upon touching his iron-gray skin, was instantly evaporated with a "sizzle" under the intense heat of his body, before it even had a chance to flow down.

An extremely pungent, reddish-brown blood mist spread across the battlefield, centered on Lu Chen.

……

In mid-air, a safe zone fifteen zhang away from the Asura Field.

Chen Yuanshan stood firmly on his flying sword, completely rooted to the spot.

He had lived for over a hundred years and had witnessed countless ruthless and evil cultivators from the demonic sects, as well as large, strangely powerful high-level demons.

But he had never seen such an outrageous scene before.

A person.

A barbarian with no spiritual energy fluctuations whatsoever, relying entirely on his pure mortal body.

They actually treated the Xuanni City's heavily forged and armed Xuan Tie heavy cavalry formation like a clay toy and tore it apart unilaterally!

This completely overturned his deeply ingrained common sense about cultivation. How could a mortal possibly turn the Xuan Tie Heavy Armor into a lump of iron with just his physical body!

They watched as the heavy cavalry below were swept away like wheat.

Chen Yuanshan was terrified, and his heart ached terribly. These thirty cavalrymen were his absolute trump card in the future struggle for power within the sect.

Can't wait any longer!

If this monster were to wipe out the cavalry and break through the restricted area, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Chen Yuanshan bit his tongue hard, his withered hands leaving large afterimages as he frantically made hand seals.

The foundation-building true essence stored within his dantian for decades completely erupted.

"You're nothing but a mortal body; I'll tear you to pieces!"

Chen Yuanshan roared at the top of his lungs, his chest suddenly bulged, and he spat a mouthful of his vital essence mixed with blood from the tip of his tongue directly onto the top-grade flying sword at his feet.

The flying sword absorbed the true essence, and its blade emitted an extremely dazzling blue light.

As the light shimmered.

A top-grade flying sword instantly multiplied into ten in mid-air.

Ten "Azure Wood Demon-Slaying Sword Auras," each over three zhang long and exuding an extremely violent and oppressive aura, rapidly formed above Chen Yuanshan's head. The sword auras were so sharp that they tore through the surrounding air, creating an extremely piercing shriek.

Ten enormous azure sword beams, carrying terrifying heavenly might capable of easily cleaving mountains, precisely locked onto Lu Chen, who was surrounded by the remaining cavalry in the blood mist below.

The ultimate killing force of the Foundation Establishment stage crashed down!
