After being jilted by the saintess at the beginning, why is she crying?

Upon hearing this, Guangzhi's expression changed drastically.

A hint of anger finally surfaced on that usually calm and composed face.

"Benefactor, I have tried to persuade you with kind words, but you remain obstinate. Do you really think I dare not take action?"

His voice was deep and resonant, like muffled thunder, and his aura suddenly exploded!

A faint golden light emerged from his body, like a golden bell covering his entire body.

The golden light was solid and heavy, with the faint sound of Buddhist chanting emanating from it, solemn and awe-inspiring.

Seeing this, Lin Fengmian not only did not back down, but instead curled up a cold smile.

"What? You resort to violence when you can't win an argument? Is this how you Buddhists behave?"

Guangzhi snorted coldly and said no more.

He clasped his hands together, muttered incantations, and suddenly his body shone with golden light!

"Enchanted Palm!"

A palm strike was unleashed!

The palm strike was accompanied by a howling wind, carrying immense power, and slammed straight towards Lin Fengmian's face!

The palm strike was incredibly fierce, and a faint, bell-like booming sound echoed in the air, making the eardrums of the surrounding cultivators ache!

Seeing this, Lin Fengmian neither dodged nor avoided, but instead a glint of excitement flashed in his eyes.

Body cultivation, right?

Let's see whose fist is harder!

His spiritual energy circulated wildly within his body, and he pushed the Jade Bone Rock Technique to its limit, instantly covering his entire body with a layer of jade-like luster!

At the same time, the power of the Pure Yang Holy Body was also activated, and the extremely yang and strong aura surged within his body, intertwining with the jade-like luster to form an indestructible barrier!

"Well done!"

Lin Fengmian let out a low shout, exerted force with his feet, and his whole body was like a streak of light, crashing hard into Guangzhi!

The two figures collided violently in mid-air!

"Bang--!"

A deafening explosion!

The sound didn't resemble the collision of flesh and blood, but rather the crashing of two iron mountains together!

A visible shockwave exploded out from the point of impact, sweeping wildly in all directions!

The stone slabs on the ground were blown away, gravel flew everywhere, and dust filled the air!

The surrounding cultivators were forced to retreat by the shockwave, and those with lower cultivation levels turned pale and felt a tightness in their chests.

And the center of the collision—

Both figures were sent flying backward, staggering back several steps before regaining their footing!

Lin Fengmian took three steps back.

Guangzhi also took three steps back.

Tie!

The first round of matches ended in a draw!

A gasp of surprise erupted from all around!

"A draw?! Lin Fengmian actually fought to a draw with the body cultivators of the Vajra Temple?!"

"My God! Vajra Temple is world-renowned for its physical cultivation! Could Lin Fengmian's physical body have reached that level as well?!"

"Monster! This Lin Fengmian is simply a monster!"

Lin Fengmian shook his slightly numb fist, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

That bald monk is actually quite skilled.

Although he was just testing the waters, he still used 70% of his strength in that punch.

An ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivator would be severely injured, if not killed, if struck by this punch.

But Guangzhi actually withstood it and even fought him to a standstill!

This person's physical strength is probably comparable to that of a pseudo-core cultivator!

Lin Fengmian pondered to himself, his gaze falling on Guangzhi as he looked him up and down.

The dark-faced monk steadied himself, his face still expressionless, but his heart was churning with turmoil!

He used 80% of his strength in that palm strike just now!

He thought he could defeat his opponent with a single palm strike, or even seriously injure him.

But to everyone's surprise, the other party actually withstood it!

What alarmed him even more was—

At the moment of impact, he felt as if he had crashed into an iron mountain!

The force of the recoil made his blood surge and his hands go numb!

This person's physical body is incredibly strong!

Guangzhi took a deep breath, suppressing his shock, and looked coldly at Lin Fengmian:

"Your physical body is truly remarkable; I underestimated you."

Lin Fengmian chuckled lightly, cracked his knuckles, and spoke with confidence:

"The really amazing part is yet to come!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he flashed forward and launched an attack!

This time, he didn't intend to test the waters again.

He wanted to show this bald monk what true body cultivation was!

Nine Phantom Transformations!

Lin Fengmian's figure suddenly disappeared from the spot!

Guangzhi's pupils contracted sharply, and almost instinctively he slammed a palm to the left!

"Bang!"

The palm strike missed its mark!

The force of the punch grazed his shoulder and slammed into the ground behind him, creating a huge crater more than ten feet deep!

Guangzhi was startled and was about to turn around when he suddenly felt a chilling coldness coming from behind him!

He turned around abruptly—

Lin Fengmian appeared behind him without him noticing and threw a punch!

That punch was as fast as lightning and as powerful as thunder!

The force of the punch was so strong that it tore through the air, creating a piercing sonic boom!

Guangzhi couldn't dodge in time and had no choice but to take the hit!

"Golden Bell Shield!"

He let out a low shout, and golden light surged wildly around his body, condensing into a thick golden light shield on his body!

The light shield was so solid it was almost tangible, with faint Sanskrit characters flowing across it, radiating an aura of indestructibility!

however--

"Bang!"

A loud bang!

Lin Fengmian's fist slammed hard into the golden light shield!

The light shield trembled violently, radiating golden light, but it did not shatter!

Guangzhi felt somewhat reassured and was about to counterattack—

Lin Fengmian's second punch has already landed!

"Bang bang bang bang bang!"

Punch after punch, like a storm, relentlessly bombarded the golden light shield!

Each bombardment unleashed a deafening roar!

The golden light on the light shield grew dimmer and dimmer, and the tremors became more and more violent!

Guangzhi was so shocked that he staggered backward, his blood surging, and a trace of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth!

He was terrified!

How is that possible!

This person's power seems to be inexhaustible!

Moreover, each punch was heavier than the last!

This is completely illogical!

Lin Fengmian, however, became more and more excited as the fight progressed.

The advantages of the Pure Yang Holy Body are fully revealed at this moment!

An ordinary cultivator would be exhausted and need to catch his breath after throwing a few punches.

But he's different.

The Pure Yang Holy Body is extremely yang and strong, with its qi and blood as abundant as the sea, and its power seems inexhaustible!

He can keep fighting as long as he wants!

"Break it!"

Lin Fengmian roared and unleashed the Nine Transformations of Illusion to its fullest extent!

His figure moved around Guangzhi like a ghost, his fist shadows overlapping and overwhelming!

Every punch landed precisely on the same spot!

The cracks on the golden light shield finally began to spread!

"Click—"

A crisp cracking sound rang out!

The seemingly indestructible golden bell shield shattered with a deafening roar!

Golden light scattered in all directions, like shattered glass, falling to the ground!

Lin Fengmian's punch, with its remaining force, landed squarely on Guangzhi's chest!

"Bang!"

A muffled thud!

Guangzhi was sent flying backwards like a kite with a broken string!

"puff--"

A mouthful of blood spurted from his mouth, drawing a bloody line in the air!

He fell heavily to the ground, rolled several times, and then stopped.
