Chapter 658: 0408 Mountain Lord Salute, unmatched strength and Qi that covers the world (requesting monthly tickets and subscriptions)_2
"But if the Eternal Immortal Breakthrough reaches the eighth level, can it shatter the void?"
"You’re overthinking it. Let’s not even consider whether an Eternal Immortal can reach the eighth level; even if it did, finding us in the vastness of the Three Thousand Worlds would be extremely difficult. Moreover, Da Xia is preoccupied with dealing with the Demon Race and has no resources to hunt us down. By that time, humanity in this world might be extinct. I’m sure the Witch has left a backup plan in Da Xia."
Seeing Li Minghuang still hesitated, Qin Xiao said.
"I’m still in the third layer of the Earth Palace and found an injured Peak Ghost King. If we can lure it here, borrowing a blade to kill, the success rate is over ninety percent! You know, compared to demons, ghosts are more troublesome, the further you go, the more so. Lu Chenzhou’s defense is unparalleled, dealing with him using ghost creatures is most suitable!"
...
Xuankong Temple.
Wang Xian, Lin Xia, and Lu Chenzhou arrived through the air while the tiger sculpture provided support from a distance.
Wang Xian looked back: "Qin Xiao and Li Minghuang, they wouldn’t take advantage of the situation, would they?"
Lin Xia frowned, twisted like a king: "Would they dare?! Once this old lady is out, I’ll have Master level the Qin Family. I’ve long found them displeasing."
Lu Chenzhou stretched his muscles and said: "I’ll first test the strength of this puppet."
His muscles trembled, vortices of Qi erupted from his pores, a white phoenix spread its wings, transforming into a jet fighter, reaching double the speed of sound in an instant.
Even before the sound, one would see him first.
Bang! A fist bulging with veins smashed toward the silver Immortal Puppet.
However, the Immortal Puppet’s figure changed, turning into a flow of water, scattering all around.
His fist hit nothing, and the cliff was shaken by the fist wind, cracks spreading.
"Such fast speed." Just as the thought landed, a silver rod wrapped in endless wind power instantly struck Lu Chenzhou’s back.
Thud! The Immortal Armor trembled violently but did not crack, dispersing the force entirely.
"Truly worthy as a Fourth Rank top-grade Immortal Puppet, its power far surpasses the Devouring Water Demon King... only, it’s still not enough."
He turned in an instant, his body sinking, using [Mountain Lord Points the Way] to circle behind, then sent out his fist like a big spear, in a moon worship pose!
Caught off guard, the Immortal Puppet couldn’t dodge, directly scattered by his two punches, turning into a sky full of raindrops, falling down from the sky.
Lu Chenzhou frowned slightly: "So weak? It shouldn’t be."
"Junior brother, be careful! The Immortal Puppet has a liquid undying body, with almost no weaknesses anywhere."
As the raindrops fell, they continuously gathered the power of heaven and earth’s wind element, exuding a sharp edge capable of slicing everything.
Lin Xia flew over, wielding a long blade, and an icy long river formed, colliding with the sky full of raindrops, dispersing much of the force.
The remaining raindrops shot like thousands of arrows, rapidly consuming the True Gang power of Lu Chenzhou’s invisible armor, causing his expression to change slightly.
Each of these raindrops was enough to pierce through the Nine Mountains Mysterious Robe of an ordinary Initial Realm Master.
Lu Chenzhou thought to himself: "Even the Heaven-reaching Immortal Armor would have shattered under such a dense barrage."
Boom boom boom! Relying on his Immortal Armor, in coordination with Lin Xia, they clashed with the Immortal Puppet in hundreds of exchanges in the blink of an eye.
Wang Xian also wanted to help, but Lu Chenzhou told him and the tiger sculpture to support, just in case, as he didn’t really trust those two masters just now.
As the battle went on, Lin Xia was struck by a whip materialized from the Immortal Puppet’s liquid metal, breaking her Nine Mountains Mysterious Robe, and her figure crashed onto the cliff, spitting blood.
The Immortal Puppet’s weapon had no fixed form, completely adapting randomly in battle, incredibly formidable.
"Damn, that hit was too strong, cough cough..." Lin Xia swallowed some medicine, cursing.
Wang Xian hurried over: "Senior sister, you go rest, I’ll take over."
To handle an Immortal Puppet, wheel tactics were necessary.
Suddenly, Lu Chenzhou’s voice came: "Senior brother, senior sister, you both support from the side, let me try alone."
With his senior brother and sister on the side, he couldn’t fight freely, he had scruples.
Wang Xian paused: "This... well, be careful, call us if you can’t handle it."
Lin Xia pouted: "Well, Wang Xian, both of us are going to become ornaments beside junior brother."
She was still waiting to fight alongside her junior brother after he became a master, dominating battlefields.
But in the end, she found that she could only be responsible for cheering and shouting.
Wang Xian also felt helpless inside: "You’re not wrong, since junior brother came out from the Water Mansion, we’re no longer on the same starting line."
Although he had long anticipated such a development, he hadn’t expected it so soon.
He could see that even though Lu Chenzhou’s Dominator Body had achieved Perfection, in terms of power, slaughter, and other comprehensive aspects, it was still inferior to the Immortal Puppet.
No matter how strong the Dominator Body is, it’s still just True Skill.
In terms of speed, Lu Chenzhou could not match the Immortal Puppet.
The Immortal Armor was indeed too overpowered.
Using the Demon Race’s six-dimensional template for comparison, with the Immortal Armor, Lu Chenzhou’s defense was at an SS level, unparalleled in the world!
When an attribute is too overpowering, it can greatly compensate for other shortcomings.
"Junior Brother, keep it up!" Lin Xia cheered, accepting reality, becoming part of the cheer squad.
...
"Hahaha! Refreshing!"
The intense battle allowed Lu Chenzhou’s fist technique to break through the realm.
[Mountain Lord Inquiry Fist: Small Success (5%)]
With abundant Qi-blood and a slight short-term enhancement in physical fitness, Lu Chenzhou fought more and more joyously.
"Take this move of mine!" He used Shrinking Ground into Inches to dodge the immortal puppet’s liquid metal-formed long spear stab, appearing behind the puppet.
This time, he positioned both fists as if in a saluting stance, seemingly holding an invisible wine glass, channeling endless sun and moon essence power into it.
Lu Chenzhou opened his mouth and inhaled, drawing endless heaven and earth power into his body, his robe billowing as a nearly hundred-meter-tall celestial-robed Mountain Lord apparition appeared behind him.
The Mountain Lord launched his fists, an invisible vortex forming in his palms, becoming a white True Gang Ball a few meters in diameter, resembling a white planet.
Threads of World Dao Essence descended, outlining the scenery of mountains and rivers on the surface of the energy ball.
In the distance, Lin Xia exclaimed, "Mountain Lord Salute!"
Wang Xian said, "It’s the same Mountain Lord Salute, but the power of this punch from Junior Brother far surpasses mine. The World Dao is truly formidable."
The white True Gang Ball flew out, wrapped in heavenly power, growing as it rolled like a snowball before exploding into a full moon in the night sky.
This is called offering a toast but drinking a penalty drink!
The immortal puppet repeated its trick, avoiding direct confrontation, its figure dissolving into countless water droplets, scattering in all directions.
At this moment, Lu Chenzhou drew out the Big Spear, slashing down mightily, the battlefield descending, the Dusk of the Gods.
The Dusk of the Gods suppressed, sealing the entire area!
Rumbling! The explosive shockwave rippled, sweeping across a mile radius, its sound traveling a hundred miles.
With a splash, countless raindrops fell to the ground, slowly coalescing into a silver-white immortal puppet.
Its movements grew increasingly sluggish, evidently "out of energy."
Before Lu Chenzhou could continue attacking, the immortal puppet collapsed to the ground, finally becoming a silver sphere about a foot in diameter.
The surface of the sphere was densely covered with tadpole-like runes, Immortal Seals used by Qi Refiners, resembling the Heart Sect’s Mantra Seal True Words of Lantuo Temple.
These runes, combined with an array and supplemented with rare materials, crafted the wondrous immortal puppet.
Crack—around Lu Chenzhou, the long-enduring Immortal Armor also shattered.
Within his Qi Sea, the True Gang was already exhausted.
"The defense power is unquestionable, but the True Gang consumption is quite high. Fortunately, my recovery speed is rapid."
He took out a Treasure Medicine, quickly refining it to recover his energy.
During this time, he reviewed the recent battle.
He discovered that the most troublesome aspect of the immortal puppet was its ever-changing form, like flowing water.
Cutting water with a knife only makes it flow more; it’s simply unkillable!
Any force could be easily dissipated.
With the combination of hardness and softness, switching between two forms at will, the power of the immortal puppet was such that it required a Great Grandmaster to truly suppress.
It appeared that he had defeated the immortal puppet mainly by exhausting its energy; otherwise, prolonged battle would have made the shattering of the Immortal Armor problematic.
"I cultivate horizontal training and can borrow the design ideas of the immortal puppet. Horizontal training emphasizes defense, but it’s not always about being as hard as possible. When facing extreme forces, especially those beyond the Great Realm, even the strongest body will be torn apart. At that moment, rather than confronting forcefully, it’s better to become like water, temporarily avoiding the sharp edge."
Just like Yu controlling water, diversion is better than blocking.
This is also another form of defense.
Lu Chenzhou’s gaze gradually became clear with understanding.
He knew what kind of Horizontal Training Divine Skill he was going to create.
