The Martial Saint of Humanity, I Have Transformed Low-Level Martial Arts Into Immortal Martial Arts - Chapter 57

Chapter 57: Iron Armored Corpse Puppets! Wen Tailai Reappears!

“Roar! Roar! Roar!”

But the armored man did not answer. Instead, he let out a series of low, hoarse growls as if issuing commands to the several Iron Armored Corpses clad in heavy armor.

“Roar!” “Roar!”

The Iron Armored Corpses responded to the armored man’s orders, emitting high-pitched, frenzied roars from their throats. The sound was so loud that it caused pain in the eardrums within the confined underground cavern!

Clang! Clang!

Accompanied by the harsh sound of metal grinding, four Iron Armored Corpses charged fiercely at Xu Huanzhen, their heavy armor clanking. Yet, their speed left afterimages behind, resembling four colossal beasts that could not be resisted.

“Melting Gold Hand!”

Xu Huanzhen felt a heavy weight in his heart and dared not underestimate the situation. Channeling his vital energy, he ignited a reddish firelight in his palms, reaching extremely high temperatures capable of melting gold and iron as he engaged in combat with the four Iron Armored Corpses.

“Bang! Bang!”

His palms collided with the hard armor, producing deafening sounds of metal clashing. However, in that collision, Xu Huanzhen felt the unparalleled brute strength contained within their bodies. Although he was a Transforming Tendon Martial Artist capable of utilizing muscle strength with formidable explosive power, the force of the clash still sent him stumbling backward!

“These Iron Armored Corpses possess immense strength. Each one has unmatched brute force, and the armor they wear is extraordinary, even tougher than that made from regular Hundred Refined Steel… My Melting Gold Hand won’t be able to melt them down in a short duration!”

Xu Huanzhen’s heart sank slightly.

The Melting Gold Hand can melt gold and iron, but it requires some time; it is impossible to turn the metal into liquid instantaneously. And the armor worn by these Iron Armored Corpses was exceptional in quality. Faced with the onslaught of four Iron Armored Corpses, he simply didn’t have time to dissolve their armor one by one.

Even attempting to strike their armor with heavy punches and kicks to shatter their bones using his Strength Force proved ineffective.

Each Iron Armored Corpse was originally a Martial Artist at the Forging Bones level. They underwent a process of soaking in various medicinal materials using corpse refining techniques, making each one as tough as copper skin and iron bones. With the heavy armor they wear, even Xu Huanzhen’s powerful strikes as a Transforming Tendon Martial Artist cannot harm them!

“Each of these Iron Armored Corpses represents years of my hard work. Each one can almost rival a Transforming Tendon Martial Artist, and I haven’t even tried refining a corpse using a Transforming Tendon Martial Artist yet!”

A smug smile appeared on the aged face hidden beneath the armor of the Armored Man. He was a remnant of the Corpse Refining Sect, who had changed his identity and become the master of Wu Family Villa. On the surface, he appeared benevolent and righteous, but secretly, he practiced his techniques on living people. These four Iron Armored Corpses were his greatest masterpieces.

Previously, he had captured those blacksmiths to create suitable armor for them. For an ordinary martial artist, each of the four Iron Armored Corpses was a daunting opponent!

Xu Huanzhen found himself under attack from the four Iron Armored Corpses, each as powerful as wild beasts, and he was in grave danger.

“This is bad!”

Xu Huanzhen’s heart raced as one Iron Armored Corpse hugged his left arm while another equipped with iron claw gloves made a fierce strike toward his back!

At that moment, a large hand reached out and grasped the wrist of the Iron Armored Corpse, like an iron hoop, halting the powerful claw’s advance just inches away from Xu Huanzhen’s back.

The person who came to Xu Huanzhen’s aid was none other than Su Hao! Initially, Su Hao had hoped that Xu Huanzhen could resolve the situation on his own so he wouldn’t have to reveal himself, but the dangers in the underground molten cave were even greater than expected. Seeing that even Xu Huanzhen was struggling, he decided he had to intervene.

“Roar!”

The Iron Armored Corpse, furious at being stopped, howled violently, then charged forward with its heavy body, revealing its fierce intentions.

However, Su Hao remained calm. Using the technique of Soft Cloud Palm, he employed the principle of using softness to overcome hardness and changed its center of gravity with Transformation Strength.

“Clang! Clang!”

The heavy Iron Armored Corpse, weighing nearly a thousand pounds with both its body and armor, was sent flying by Su Hao’s single hand, colliding with the other two Iron Armored Corpses in a chaotic mess.

Taking advantage of this moment, Xu Huanzhen broke free from the grip of the Iron Armored Corpse enveloping his arm, pushing it back with tremendous force.

“Who are you? Why are you helping me?”

Finally catching his breath, Xu Huanzhen looked at Su Hao with a mix of surprise and confusion, unsure of the man’s identity and intentions.

Su Hao lowered his voice and said in a hoarse tone, “I’m here to kill… You’re not on the list, so you’d better move aside and not get in the way of my killing.”

“Bang!”

As he spoke, Su Hao waved his hand, employing the Soft Cloud Palm technique. The profound strength force, like layers of soft white clouds, pushed the advancing Iron Armored Corpse back, making it stagger and retreat!

“Killing?”

This statement left Xu Huanzhen somewhat astonished.

“Could it be… he’s here to target the remnants of the Corpse Refining Sect?”

Xu Huanzhen’s heart stirred. Su Hao had come to kill, clearly aiming for the people from the Corpse Refining Sect, while he himself was there to save people. The two parties happened to cross paths.

“Roar!”

The Iron Armored Corpses continued to charge but were pushed back by Su Hao’s Soft Cloud Palm, almost like a game. This infuriated one of the Iron Armored Corpses, which let out a frantic roar, shaking the armor on its body as it charged forward with even more furious speed!

“Annoying!”

Su Hao’s expression darkened. Since these Iron Armored Corpses were clad in heavy armor with strong resistance to attacks, he decided to unleash even more ferocious power to crush them.

“Boom!”

With a slight focus of his mind, the Jade Glass Bones surged with powerful explosive force. The strength transmitted from Su Hao’s feet through his spine unleashed a violence akin to a volcanic eruption, a thunderous force erupting as he thrust his right palm forward!

This palm strike was overwhelming, and vast stretches of air condensed into a pressure wall, pushing forward and causing the Iron Armored Corpse’s movements to stall. The palm imprint landed solidly on its chest.

“Boom!!”

The heavy armor forged from Hundred Refined Steel was deeply dented, accompanied by the sound of bones breaking; its ribs had clearly fractured. The nearly thousand-pound body was sent flying back three to four yards, rolling and crashing to the ground. The sound of metallic clashing echoed, shaking the ground.

The Iron Armored Corpse fell to the ground, struggling several times but unable to rise.

Xu Huanzhen watched this scene, somewhat dumbfounded: “One…”With one strike, he sent an Iron Armored Corpse flying out?”

Having personally experienced the helplessness of battling these Iron Armored Corpses, Xu Huanzhen found it difficult to deal effective damage even with his Transforming Tendon Stage strength. Yet, this mysterious man had sent the corpse flying as if it were nothing more than a sandbag with a single palm strike!

The power behind that palm was astonishing, almost unbelievable for a flesh-and-blood body to unleash!

“This noise, this might… Are you the Gold Medal Blade Catcher, Wen Tailai, known for his invincible Divine Fist?”

Witnessing this scene, the Armored Man thought of something, his voice tinged with surprise.

“Is he Wen Tailai? The same Wen Tailai who killed Shi Tieshan from the Vajra Gate?”

Xu Huanzhen felt a sudden shock in his heart.

Wen Tailai, this name had gained a certain level of fame in Evergreen City, having killed the Transforming Tendon Martial Artist Shi Tieshan right before everyone’s eyes when he attempted to raid the Execution Ground, thus gaining notoriety!

It was said that when Wen Tailai struck, his strength force was incredibly overwhelming, like thunder roaring and lightning breaking through the sky, exhibiting extraordinary might.

The man before them had shattered the bones of an Iron Armored Corpse with a single blow while it was clad in heavy armor, leaving it struggling to rise. The force of his attack, along with his youthful appearance, completely matched the features of the Blade Catcher ‘Wen Tailai’!
