Invincible Martial King

The moment he stepped into the passageway, a force that could topple mountains and overturn the seas appeared out of nowhere. It was as if thousands of mountains were pressing down on him. Even a powerful Body like Lu Chen almost couldn't take it at all.    

This was an invisible and terrifying formation.    

"Crack!"    

Lu Chen stood up straight and withstood the unimaginable power. Even his bones made sounds, but fortunately, this formation did not target him. It only stopped for a moment before dispersing like the tide.    

"What a powerful array. If I were to use it at full power, I fear that it wouldn't be much weaker than the external vortex black cloud formation."    

"It should be a great formation inside the Phoenix nest. Most likely, it is used to block the entry of experts above the Sect Master Stage." Lu Chen thought for a while and immediately understood.    

Without the overwhelming pressure from the array, Lu Chen's footsteps regained their lightness and he walked deeper into the tunnel.    

"Hmm?"    

Suddenly, Lu Chen stopped.    

A tall stone statue appeared in front of him.    

The statue was covered in a black and grey color, and its surface was covered in the dust of time. From a distance, it looked like a small mountain, blocking the path.    

"This is …"    

"Crack!"    

Just when Lu Chen was about to get close, the stone statue suddenly cracked open with a crisp sound, revealing a metallic luster. A violent and dense murderous aura rushed over, that kind of feeling was like facing a beast that had just awakened from its slumber, making one feel like they were about to be engulfed.    

"Those who enter the Phoenix Nest will be killed without mercy."    

The stone skin fell off, revealing a "man" made of steel. However, there was no sign of life on his body, just like a real killing weapon, his two scarlet eyes shone with a terrifying light. The moment he saw Lu Chen, his heavy foot stomped on the ground, causing the entire path to shake, and he shot forward like a cannonball.    

"Hu!"    

The sound of breaking air was sharp and mournful. This steel figure appeared in front of Lu Chen in the blink of an eye. His fist was completely made of steel. It came at Lu Chen with an explosive force. It was simple and straightforward.    

The moment the steel figure recovered, Lu Chen felt the danger and his muscles tensed up like a bowstring ready. Taking note of the former's attack, the Chaos Body activated immediately. Its soul power was poured into its fist in an instant, and it released a dragon's roar and tiger's roar.    

"Boom!"    

The two fists collided in the time it took for a spark to fly off of a piece of flint, emitting a low and deep sound of friction. It was as if two indestructible pieces of steel had collided in the most terrifying manner.    

The muscles on his arm were a bit numb. It had been a long time since such a feeling had appeared. Not only was the opponent a monster made of steel, but the explosive force was enough to give him no advantage.    

"Swish."    

This figure that was entirely made of steel, seemed like a monster that didn't know its fatigue at all. With a sharp and dense killing intent, it charged towards Lu Chen once again.    

A dark golden luster circulated on his fist, and his strength was much stronger than that strike just now.    

Lu Chen couldn't help but frown. At the same time, a competitive spirit rose in his heart. No matter what kind of monster it was, if it wanted to suppress him in the area that he was the most adept in, it would be courting death.    

"Kill!"    

Lu Chen's hair was unbound and his eyes were cold like lightning. His five fingers were clenched into a fist and surging power was released from every inch of his body. The fist roared like a giant dragon. Every strike contained the ultimate strength. The energy that was released caused the entire tunnel to tremble.    

At this moment.    

Lu Chen was like a demon that had completely opened its eyes, unleashing the most powerful and terrifying power.    

"Bam."    

The figure that was made of steel was hit by Lu Chen's fist. His body that seemed to be able to destroy everything actually had a trace of a depression.    

Lu Chen was expressionless and his blood was surging. He was unstoppable.    

"Bang, bang …"    

The two figures, one big and one small, exploded into a terrifying confrontation in the passageway. If it wasn't for the fact that the Phoenix Nest was supported by a terrifying formation, in any other place, even a steel city would have been razed to the ground by the aftermath of the battle.    

The body of the steel figure was strong and sturdy. Even if it were to fight against Lu Chen, it would not immediately be at a disadvantage. Moreover, it was filled with an explosive power and even when Lu Chen collided with it, he would not have much of an advantage.    

However, fighting isn't just relying on one's strength and body. The most important thing is still who can unleash more power. Under the premise that the difference in strength was not too big, Lu Chen's battle techniques showed their advantages. That ruthless and tricky way of fighting made the steel figure suffer a lot.    

After a hundred moves, Lu Chen did not have much injuries. On the steel figure, there were quite a few fist marks. Although it did not pose much of a threat, the distance between the two was clearly visible.    

"What a strong body. Even if it were compared to my current physical body strength, it would not be much weaker. What sort of monster is this?" The more Wu Tie fought, the more surprised he became. His current physical body was a combination of Previous Martial Emperor's experience and cultivation technique. Only after a lifetime of practice did he have such achievements.    

However, not only was the strength of the steel figure terrifying, its body was also extremely hard. Even though it endured several punches, it was not affected much. It already surpassed Lu Chen's expectations.    

Lu Chen's fists were not weak. On the contrary, Lu Chen was very confident that even if a half-step King were to receive a heavy punch from him, he would at least be seriously injured. After all, he was currently combining the profound strength of a martial artist with the strength of a Body. But even so, he probably still did not completely suppress his opponent at the first possible moment.    

"Peerless Monarch Fist!"    

Seeing the deadlock, Lu Chen directly used the first move of the Emperor Fist. In an instant, the power of the fist increased threefold, creating a solid fist light. It was like a punch from an Emperor, bringing with it a terrifying force.    

Sensing this terrifying strength, the red light in the steel figure's eyes intensified. It seemed to have sensed some kind of fatal threat, as golden lines appeared on its surface, while its aura soared layer by layer.    

The golden lines interweaved. Finally, just like an armor, it wrapped around the steel figure and charged towards Lu Chen. From the looks of it, it seemed like it wanted to directly receive the Emperor Fist.    

"Hmm?"    

Seeing this, Lu Chen raised his eyebrows. His gaze suddenly became sharp and his soul power surged. The light in his fist became even brighter.    

BOOM!    

With a loud sound, the iron figure flew out like a kite with its string cut.    

The scarlet light in her eyes was like the flickering flame of a candle in the wind. In the end, it gradually dimmed and lost all signs of strength.
