The Martial Saint of Humanity, I Have Transformed Low-Level Martial Arts Into Immortal Martial Arts - Chapter 29

Chapter 29: Crushing into Mud! Unstoppable Dominance!

“Aren’t you just going to keep dodging? If you have the guts, take a hammer from me!”

The Armored Strongman roared in fury.

“Then it’s as you wish!”

A cold glint flashed in Su Hao’s eyes. No longer relying on his agile movements to evade, he wanted this Armored Strongman to suffer a very tragic fate!

In the next moment, with the weight of a thousand pounds behind it, the hammer came crashing down again. The power of this swing could shatter the bones of a fierce tiger and kill it instantly.

Yet Su Hao merely extended his palm, pressing and sweeping against the side of the hammer. This action would appear suicidal to an ordinary person.

“Hmm?”

The Armored Strongman’s expression changed drastically. Su Hao’s seemingly light touch was, in fact, executed with such skill that it fundamentally altered the hammer’s center of gravity, nearly causing the Armored Strongman to lose his grip. The blow uncontrollably veered off-target and slammed down into the ground, creating a deep depression!

Transformation Strength had reached an extreme application of Strength Force, capable of diverting great force with minimal effort, overcoming hardness with softness!

Having deflected the Armored Strongman’s blow, Su Hao’s left palm seemed to strike slowly but landed on the Armored Strongman’s chest as lightly as a feather, seemingly without force.

The Armored Strongman, clad in heavy armor and impervious to swords and blades, should have been completely unharmed by such a light strike.

“Clang!!”

However, at the moment the palm made contact with the Armored Strongman’s chest, a surge of overwhelming strength exploded outward. A deep palm imprint formed on the surface of the armor, sending shockwaves that caused the Armored Strongman to stagger backward, overwhelmed by pain in his chest. He felt a rush of blood and had to force himself to swallow it back down!

“How… is this possible? I’m wearing heavy armor, impervious to blades, and he can still injure me with a single palm strike?”

The Armored Strongman looked horrified. He had undergone second-stage Forging Bones, his bones as tough as bronze, and with his robust physique clad in this heavy armor, even martial artists of equal rank found it difficult to inflict any damage on him while standing still.

But this black-clad man’s seemingly light palm strike nearly caused him to spit blood?

“Master Zhou, I will avenge you all, making him die a very tragic death!”

Killing intent surged in Su Hao’s eyes. In truth, he could severely injure or even kill the Armored Strongman with a blow to the head, but Su Hao wanted to exact vengeance for Zhou Xiong and the others, so he wouldn’t let the Armored Strongman die that easily.

“Whoosh!”

Su Hao’s figure flashed as he closed in on the Armored Strongman. The Armored Strongman roared in anger and swung his hammer again, but Su Hao, employing the completed Soft Cloud Palm along with Transformation Strength, executed a sweeping motion with his palm. It was as if soft clouds were swirling, and the Armored Strongman was unable to maintain his grip on the heavy hammer, which slipped from his hands and flew away!

“Clang! Clang! Clang!”

In the next moment, Su Hao unleashed a torrential barrage of strikes against the Armored Strongman’s chest, shoulders, back, and abdomen. Each palm strike was infused with Transformation Strength, bearing the terrifying power to penetrate walls and shatter stone tablets.

The Armored Strongman felt as if he had fallen into a quagmire. Faced with these continuous, cloud-like strikes, he wished to struggle and resist, but his limbs disobeyed him, ensnared by an overwhelming and mysterious force, rendering him unable to counterattack.

This was the immense power of Transformation Strength perfected through three rounds of body quenching and refining strength; despite the Armored Strongman approaching the second stage of Forging Bones, with strength surpassing Su Hao’s, he found himself completely unable to retaliate under the circumstances where Su Hao wielded Transformation Strength in conjunction with perfected martial arts!

“Crack! Crack! Crack!”

Pain and terror filled the Armored Strongman’s eyes as he heard the sound of his finely honed bones cracking. Even clad in armor capable of withstanding blade strikes, against Su Hao’s every blow, which carried the force of a galloping horse, the impact still damaged his bones and internal organs!

After dozens of strikes, Su Hao slowly withdrew his hands; blood seeped from the gaps in the Armored Strongman’s armor, dripping steadily to the ground.

“Thud!”

In a series of metallic clangs, the Armored Strongman’s towering figure crumpled to the ground. Under Su Hao’s relentless assault, his body had been reduced to a sludgy mess, and his death was extremely tragic, leaving behind a gaze filled with fear and a hint of relief.

Su Hao typically killed cleanly and swiftly, but since this Armored Strongman had brutalized his respected elder, Su Hao would ensure that he died miserably!

This scene unfolded too rapidly; the two sides had only clashed for a brief moment, ending with the Armored Strongman being struck dead on the spot.

“Centurion Gao… is dead!”

Fearful cries echoed from the Black Deer Army’s side. The Armored Strongman was their leader, yet he was beaten to death right in their midst, which was undoubtedly a devastating blow to them!

“Kill!”Kill all these bandits! The bandit leader has been dealt with!”

The Centurion of the Evergreen Army, Ji Gang, was not only shocked by Su Hao’s terrifying strength but also rallied his troops, shouting to eradicate the Black Deer Army’s bandits.

“Kill! Kill!”

At this moment, the morale of the Evergreen Army soldiers surged, while the Black Deer Army, already demoralized, was nearly incapable of resistance, with many soldiers choosing to flee.

The defeat came swiftly, and with the death of the Armored Strongman, the outcome of the battle was almost predetermined.

“Thank you, sir, for your righteous intervention! Ji Gang expresses his gratitude!”

Ji Gang, with a serious expression, deeply bowed to Su Hao, knowing that if Su Hao hadn’t killed the Armored Strongman, this battle would not have gone so smoothly.

Su Hao chose not to respond to Ji Gang; his purpose here was to take revenge for Zhou Xiong and the others. With that goal accomplished, he did not linger and turned to leave.

“That Armored Strongman was on the brink of the second stage of Forging Bones and was well-equipped. Yet, this black-clad man was able to kill him single-handedly, leaving him nearly powerless to resist. This person is truly unfathomable. Could he be… a Transforming Tendon Martial Artist?”

As Ji Gang watched Su Hao’s departing figure, he couldn’t help but feel curious about this person’s identity, even believing that he might very well be a master at the Transforming Tendon level!

Martial Artists train through several stages, with the first phase being ‘Forging the Body into Four Realms’: Refining Strength, Forging Bones, Transforming Tendons, and Cleansing Marrow—each stage is crucial.

Refining Strength is the entry point of this phase, while Forging Bones strengthens the entire skeletal structure, greatly enhancing explosive power and resilience; under sufficient resources and diligent effort, most can achieve these two stages.

However, Transforming Tendons presents a steep increase in difficulty, as it refines the tendons. Tendons are delicate, and any mistake could lead to severe injury, causing many who have succeeded in Forging Bones to hesitate at this step for fear of becoming crippled.

Yet once one enters the Transforming Tendon stage, their power significantly increases!

Transforming Tendon Martial Artists have resilient tendons, akin to bowstrings, allowing them to wield “muscle force.” Their punches and kicks strike with the speed and power of arrows, and the upper limits of the strength they can output increase exponentially.

They can produce the effects of Inner Energy from visible strength and unleash Transformation Strength from Inner Energy!

Su Hao was able to use his bare hands to beat a martial artist at the Forging Bones stage into what seemed like a pile of mud, even through a set of heavy armor. In Ji Gang’s eyes, it was highly likely that the opponent was a martial artist who had reached the Transforming Tendon level! Of course, Ji Gang could never have imagined that Su Hao had only recently entered the Forging Bone Stage and that his ability to crush the Armored Strongman was purely due to having cultivated multiple martial arts to perfection, which allowed him to unleash Transformation Strength!
