Invincible through Touching Corpses

As Peng Jashi unleashed all four layers of his defense, Lin Xinghai could sense that his opponent’s strength had grown considerably over the past month. His Blood Qi Power was likely over 900 points.

Backed by this immense Blood Qi Power, both the Energy Shield from his Divine Demon Body and the barrier from his own Blood Qi Power were significantly stronger.

Unfortunately, despite both of them having the same month to train, the extent of their progress wasn’t even in the same league.

Lin Xinghai made the first move. He didn’t use the Phantom Body Technique, but the Thunderbolt Step instead.

As he executed the Thunderbolt Step, a torrent of thunderbolts surged from his feet. In that moment, it was as if Lin Xinghai walked on thunder, arriving before Peng Jashi in the blink of an eye.

He didn’t bother searching for any weaknesses, instead delivering a simple, direct kick.

But this plain, unadorned kick, fueled by Lin Xinghai’s immense Blood Qi Power, became utterly terrifying.

Innumerable bolts of lightning erupted from Lin Xinghai’s foot, crashing first against his opponent’s Energy Shield.

Each of the densely packed bolts of lightning carried considerable damage. As hundreds of them bombarded the shield, the Energy Shield of the Chaos Divine Body—hailed as the strongest defensive Divine Demon Body—shattered almost instantly.

Then, the remaining lightning, its momentum unabated, continued to bombard the defensive layer formed by his opponent’s Blood Qi Power.

Just as expected, that defensive layer also shattered instantly.

Lin Xinghai’s lightning attack was too swift and too ferocious. Both layers of defense were broken in an instant, and Peng Jashi didn’t even have time to form another Energy Shield.

Under Lin Xinghai’s control, the remaining third of the lightning spread out, striking Peng Jashi from multiple angles.

Although Peng Jashi had activated his Chaos Divine Body and had the enhancement of his Metallic Skin Superpower, he withstood this wave of lightning bombardment.

But Lin Xinghai’s true attack wasn’t the lightning. It was the powerful, heavy kick he had delivered.

BOOM!

Lin Xinghai’s foot, having undergone Divine Demon Transformation, slammed viciously into the Fine Steel Giant Shield, instantly producing a deafening roar.

Before Peng Jashi’s disbelieving eyes, a deep footprint was clearly imprinted on the Fine Steel Giant Shield.

An unparalleled force of impact traveled up the Fine Steel Giant Shield and slammed into his hands.

CRACK!

It was the faint sound of bones cracking. Famed for his defense, he had been unable to withstand this Giant Strength for even a moment, and both his arms had fractured.

This Giant Strength didn’t simply vanish with his broken bones. The Fine Steel Giant Shield, like a battering ram, slammed into his chest, and Peng Jashi was sent flying right off the arena platform.

This all takes a while to describe, but it happened in the blink of an eye.

To the crowd below, Lin Xinghai had simply flashed in front of Peng Jashi, and then with one thunder-charged kick, sent him flying off the platform.

The battle ended so quickly that everyone watching thought they were hallucinating.

An uproar erupted from the audience. Many even suspected that Peng Jashi had intentionally thrown the match. Otherwise, with his legendary Defense Power, how could he possibly be kicked off the platform with a single blow?

However, when they saw Peng Jashi’s unnaturally twisted arms, those doubts instantly vanished.

In its place were awe and fear.

If even Peng Jashi’s Defense Power couldn’t withstand a single kick from Lin Xinghai, one could only imagine what would happen to the other students on the Hero Ranking if they faced him.

Of course, the most shocked of all was Peng Jashi himself.

After getting back on his feet, he paid no mind to his injuries, staring up at Lin Xinghai on the platform in utter disbelief.

"Impossible! How can your Attack Power be even greater than my instructor’s?"

An outstanding student like Peng Jashi often had the chance to spar with instructors. Even when a Body Shaping Realm Late Stage instructor went all out, he could withstand at least three to five moves. It was impossible for him to be defeated in a single blow.

"Nothing is impossible. My Thunder Divine Body is inherently the Divine Demon Body with the greatest explosive power. On top of that, I also possess the Thunder Control Physique, which further enhances my explosive strength," Lin Xinghai said calmly, revealing a fraction of his true power.

And he was telling the complete truth. His Thunder Control Physique, in addition to improving his mastery over Thunder Energy, also increased the power of his lightning attacks by 100%.

When he had first awakened this Special Physique, its effects weren’t very obvious. But as his Blood Qi Power grew, allowing him to unleash even more Thunder Power, its might gradually revealed itself.

With a percentage-based damage increase like this, the stronger he became, the more terrifying its effect.

Especially in the future, when he becomes a Divine Demon Realm expert and can manifest the complete form of his Thunder Divine Body, every attack will be imbued with Thunder Power. With the bonus from his Special Physique, it would be equivalent to doubling the power of all his attacks. The enhancement then would be truly terrifying.

Hearing Lin Xinghai’s explanation, Peng Jashi fell silent.

He had to admit, even though the Chaos Divine Body was hailed as the Divine Body with the greatest Defense Power, it was still a step behind the Thunder Divine Body.

Although Lin Xinghai hadn’t specified the exact effects of his Thunder Control Physique, the fact that it increased explosive power was a perfect counter to him.

After all, something like a Special Physique was exceedingly rare, even among top-tier geniuses like them.

But after clashing with Lin Xinghai firsthand, Peng Jashi was certain his opponent had held back. At the very least, that explosive burst of Giant Strength was simply inexplicable.

He was certain it was absolutely Body Shaping Realm Level Power; otherwise, he couldn’t possibly have been sent flying.

In that instant, a possibility occurred to him: his opponent’s total Blood Qi Power was likely far beyond anyone’s expectations, allowing him to possess such terrifying Power while still in the Blood Qi Realm.

Although he had an inkling of the truth, Lin Xinghai seemed to want to keep it hidden, so there was no need for him to risk offending the guy by blurting it out.

In the end, he just pursed his lips and said nothing. After nodding to Lin Xinghai, he walked to the side to ask an instructor for medical treatment.

Lin Xinghai, for his part, turned to the referee, Wei Kai, and said, "Instructor Wei, I want to challenge number 41, Gu Yongde. Please make the arrangements."

"Ah... yes, of course!" Hearing Lin Xinghai’s request, Wei Kai finally snapped out of his daze and hastily replied.

His tone, however, wasn’t that of an instructor addressing a student, but more like someone addressing a school official.

It couldn’t be helped. As the referee, he had been the closest to the two combatants. The instant Lin Xinghai attacked, a sense of mortal danger had flared up in his heart.

He was one hundred percent certain that Lin Xinghai’s last attack could have threatened his own life.

’And that was just a casual kick from Lin Xinghai. Doesn’t that mean that even I, a Body Shaping Realm Late Stage expert, might not be his match?’
