Chapter 258: Chapter 160: Ultimate Power, Clashing Head-On with the Physical Body, Everyone Stunned

BOOM!!!

With a mere thought from Jiang Hao, three more figures were suppressed and sent plummeting down. Only that Body Cultivator remained unaffected.

"He succeeded!"

"You can do it, Junior Brother Fan!"

"Defeat him!"

Although the three had plummeted and crashed not far from Lin Huai’an’s group of four, a glimmer of hope ignited in their eyes as they watched the burly youth break through that strange power.

"Body Cultivators truly possess formidable physical bodies. He actually withstood that power."

"That guy is even more overconfident than we imagined. To actually allow a Body Cultivator to close in on him—he must have a death wish."

"For us Cultivators, the biggest taboo is letting a Body Cultivator get into close quarters. Once they close the distance, their combat power is terrifying."

Seeing the burly, peerless freak break through that power, many Cultivators were slightly taken aback and subconsciously voiced their thoughts. A Body Cultivator’s most terrifying aspect was their explosive physical power. When combined with physical martial arts and closed distance, their combat strength would multiply several times over. Some Cultivators even grew envious, their understanding of a Body Cultivator’s deadliness deepening.

Little did they know, the burly youth was extremely puzzled. It wasn’t that he had broken through that power; rather, the opponent hadn’t tried to stop him at all.

He thought, "Whether you’ve run out of strength or did this on purpose, since you’ve let me get close, the outcome is already decided."

The burly youth was brimming with confidence. As a Body Cultivator, this distance was enough for him to heavily injure any Cultivator in the same realm. Not to mention, he was a peerless freak among Body Cultivators who had already cultivated his physical body to the Thirty-Two Heavens. Coupled with his physical martial arts, his strength was almost equivalent to the Half-Step Thirty-Three Heavens. Even if he couldn’t severely injure his opponent, knocking him back or inflicting a light injury shouldn’t be a problem.

Inside the Beardless Saint Hall.

Master Beardless couldn’t help but step forward, his gaze seeming as if it could pierce through the entire world. Was he planning to take a Body Cultivator’s attack head-on?

One had to know that a Body Cultivator’s physical body was comparable to a Magical Artifact. Clashing head-on with a Body Cultivator was undoubtedly like smashing against a Magical Artifact. It was an extremely irrational move. Unless the opponent was also a Body Cultivator—but even then, he couldn’t possibly match up to a peerless Body Cultivator freak. The opponent had already displayed near-invincible cultivation talent and potential, obviously focusing on spiritual cultivation.

Master Wuchen and Master Wugou both muttered to themselves.

"This new Junior Brother doesn’t know his own limits."

"To clash head-on with a Body Cultivator, especially at such close range... Even with terrifying Spiritual Power, it will be difficult to unleash. A Body Cultivator’s close-quarters combat is simply too dreadful."

Of course, there were astonishing prodigies in the world who dual-cultivated both body and Spiritual Power, but they were exceedingly rare. Such Cultivators were incredibly hard to come by and could practically be called perfect combat Cultivators. Once they learned physical martial arts, they would be nearly flawless, whether in close-quarters melee or long-range combat. But how could their Beardless Sect ever get the chance to recruit such a world-shocking figure?

Furthermore, no matter how one looked at him, that youth didn’t seem like a Body Cultivator. If he really were a Body Cultivator, combining that with the limit-breaking power fluctuation from just now, the resulting shockwave would be unimaginably terrifying. Even if he were just an ordinary Body Cultivator, his combat power would skyrocket endlessly.

Master Beardless and the other two reeled in absolute shock.

Inside the Beardless Dojo.

The burly youth had already closed in, bursts of excitement surfacing on his face.

"Eldest Senior Brother... Oh, wait, no. I should call you Qin Fan, because you are no longer destined for the position of Eldest Senior Brother.

"Qin Fan, oh, Qin Fan, you’ve underestimated your enemy. Out of all the mistakes you could have made, you absolutely shouldn’t have let a Body Cultivator get close.

"But it’s too late for regrets now. The outcome is decided. Forgive my offense!"

BOOM!!!

When he was no more than a meter away from Jiang Hao, the burly youth swung his fist and smashed it toward his opponent. The wind from his punch howled sharply, and a terrifying physical power erupted, shaking the surrounding void until it seemed to collapse endlessly.

The moment this punch was thrown, the hundreds of thousands of eyes across the entire Beardless Sect widened in awe. The few peerless freaks beside Lin Huai’an also voiced their joy.

"He did it!"

"Leave it to Junior Brother Fan!"
