With his current constitution, a layer of fine scales adhered to the surface of his skin, with streaks of crimson glow emanating under the influence of the Red Dragon Inner Core.

Lu Ren's expression was unchanged, his fist not at all slowing as it struck heavily at Jack's body.

Thud!!

Like a mountain collapsing, immense power erupted at that moment, infused with the Bright Sun True Qi, and Jack felt as if he collided directly with a heavy tank traveling over four hundred kilometers per hour, weighing more than fifty tons.

He almost felt like his body had fallen apart, flying backward and crashing through the main hall's walls, even though flickering weak golden runes appeared, they were unable to stop it.

The main hall's wall was blasted into a large hole.

A continuous, thundering crash sound echoed.

Listening to the sound, Lu Ren withdrew his fist, looking at the cut on his arm. At this moment, the Qi and Blood within his body roared, almost like rolling thunder.

The Emperor Zhenwu Body began to stimulate his Qi and Blood power. Under the operation of the Phoenix Transformation True Intent, muscles closed and cells reconnected.

In just a few breaths, the wound cut by high-frequency waves healed as if it had never been there, leaving no signs of the once bone-deep slash.

Shaking his hand and slightly moving his limbs, confirming no abnormalities, Lu Ren then walked into the main hall through the hole he had created.

With the fluorescent stick, which now looked like a darning needle against his current size, he threw it, illuminating the vast main hall of nearly five hundred square meters.

This main hall was fairly empty. Besides a throne-like stepped seat in the center, only six stone pillars, each one requiring an adult to encircle, served as the foundation supporting the main hall.

At this moment, Jack had already crashed into and broken one of the stone pillars, lying beside the throne, his body sparking with electricity as he struggled to get up.

Lu Ren glanced at Jack and then focused all his attention on the throne.

Sitting there was a person, a graceful woman obscured in shadow, wearing a pure white palace dress. Even with the glow of the fluorescent stick, her face was somewhat vague, hidden in shadow, her features indistinct.

Unmoving, she seemed to have been sitting there since ancient times, never having budged.

However, she was alive; Lu Ren could feel the faint threads of life essence within her gradually reviving and becoming active.

He glanced at the barely risen Jack, whose alloy armor on his chest was almost concave, then fixed his gaze intently back on the woman on the throne.

"Your armor is indeed quite tough."

Lu Ren spoke casually, without moving his gaze.

That punch, infused with the aggressive energy of Bright Sun True Qi, accompanied by a surging, unbelievable magnetic field attack, had thoroughly wrecked many of Jack's precise electronic components. To stand at this moment truly spoke to the sophistication of his alloy equipment's mechanical drive.

Jack's expression twisted slightly: "What kind of energy are you wielding? How can you control energy?!"

The human body is already bewildering, but to truly wield energy? That was indeed unfathomable.

Until now, Lu Ren was the first person he'd encountered who could, like Huaxia legends, possess Energy True Qi and wield it freely.

Even Zhang Tongxuan's condensed strand of Innate Qi was barely sufficient for his internal body circulation, much less available for external assaults.

He felt it already insufficient to nourish his Spirit and Physique, not willing to expend it on external attacks.

Only someone as affluent as Lu Ren could so liberally wield True Qi offensively.

Lu Ren replied calmly: "You can unleash a Particle Cannon, so why can't I launch a True Qi Cannon?"

This was utterly incomparable, no joke!!

Achieving semi-energization of the physical body was already treading the path of Longevity and Vision.

"So, those ancient myths truly existed."

Jack murmured to himself, suddenly questioning if accepting super alloy equipment modification was truly the wrong road.

While Jack was lost in thought, Lu Ren had already silently approached him. Overconfident in his previous slash attack, Jack inadvertently allowed Lu Ren the opportunity for a devastating counterattack.

Whether it was Nosnov or Thunder Jack, both were pummeled by Lu Ren based on the information disparity until they couldn't fend for themselves.

"Your blade is excellent. If you were determined to maintain distance and engage in a protracted clash, perhaps I would need a long time against you."

Upon hearing Lu Ren's chilly voice, Jack abruptly raised his head, glaring fiercely at Lu Ren.

"You want to kill me?"

The response was a large hand covering his face.

"Ding, you have successfully killed Thunder Jack. The opponent's strength determination is complete; judgment succeeded. You have gained 1 Skill Point."

Tossing aside Jack's headless body, Lu Ren's gaze turned to the person on the throne.

Along with Lu Ren's slaying of Jack, the life magnetic field of the opponent began to become rapidly active.

He now had 9 Skill Points, more than enough to support elevating the Ten Lands Mahayana Golden Body Phoenix Bodhisattva Path into the Seventh Land realm.

Perhaps others needed to meticulously refine this method over a long time, even requiring certain opportunities for further advancement, but Lu Ren was different. As long as he had Skill Points, he could swiftly elevate this True Skill to the Perfection Realm.

Seemingly sensing Lu Ren's ill intent, the dormant woman slightly moved, slowly opening her eyes.

Lu Ren regretted internally; if he had acted first, hammering the opponent before she awoke might have been possible. But now, that chance was gone.

Lu Ren wasn't overly concerned; the opponent's vitality was dormant like a stubborn stone, showing no trace of life essence.

However, maintaining her consciousness and body over such an extensive period was not feasible with personal effort alone, likely risking complete end and being obliterated over time.

This throne likely harbored some strange power.

When the woman opened her eyes, Lu Ren could finally see her face clearly.

It was an old woman.

No, not just an old woman; the wrinkles on her face were even more pronounced than those of the Earth-bound Spirit crone he met in the Library Pavilion previously.

After countless attempts and methods, across such an incredibly long span of time, her life was evidently nearing its end.

Her face carried traces of heavy makeup, yet under her wrinkles, she looked entirely like an old witch.

This sacred palace dress worn by the old witch surprisingly appeared harmonious, not at all out of place.

The grandeur she exuded was completely a feeling sedimented by time.

"Young man, I have finally obtained you."

Her muddled eyes looked at Lu Ren, currently in his Bodhisattva Dharma Aspect, with a tinge of indescribable excitement on her face.
