After the One-armed Elder finished speaking.

The robes around him stirred without wind!

An aura of a senior expert radiated outward.

Lin Feng's heart tightened.

Even with his greatly enhanced strength, facing the One-armed Elder, he still found the man unfathomably deep!

Lin Feng nodded and said, "Senior, I will strike with all my strength from here on. Forgive my impertinence."

The One-armed Elder smiled and said nothing.

Would a powerhouse of his level fear a full-force strike from a Body Tempering martial artist?

It was utterly impossible; the two were practically beings on different levels.

Across from him, Lin Feng immediately activated the Iron Shirt with full force after speaking.

In that moment, Lin Feng's body turned to steel, a resolute light shining in his eyes. He stood like a towering mountain, as if no one could knock him down.

Then Lin Feng extended his right palm—

Boom!!

In an instant, he unleashed the Great Success Bone Corroding Seven Kill Palm!

A vast, surging palm force erupted in a flash, boundless in power, surging forward!

The momentum was formidable; to an outsider, it seemed almost impossible for a Body Tempering Realm martial artist to produce such a strike.

The One-armed Elder, Elder Han, had worn a calm and composed expression at first.

But when Lin Feng delivered that palm strike.

His expression shifted slightly!

Boom!!

The Bone Corroding Seven Kill Palm came crashing in.

The One-armed Elder did not dodge or evade; he stood rooted to the spot.

Invisible True Qi swirled around him, completely deflecting the force of Lin Feng's palm.

After that strike landed, not even a single strand of the One-armed Elder's hair stirred.

Because the gap in their realms was too vast.

No matter what Lin Feng did, he could not harm the One-armed Elder.

Yet—the One-armed Elder's expression was remarkably vivid.

He savored the palm strike just delivered, and gradually, shock spread across his face!

Such power was definitely not a Bone Corroding Seven Kill Palm at the entry level.

At the very least, it was Minor Success!

The One-armed Elder took a deep breath and said, "You've cultivated the Bone Corroding Seven Kill Palm to Minor Success?!"

"Come, strike again—go all out!"

Before Lin Feng could speak, the One-armed Elder spoke again.

Lin Feng nodded.

Then, focusing completely, he unleashed another Bone Corroding Seven Kill Palm.

The very air trembled and burst.

That palm strike landed three inches from the One-armed Elder's body, only to be dispersed by True Qi.

But at this moment, the shock on the One-armed Elder's face deepened.

"This isn't Minor Success!"

He blurted out.

Having felt the terrifying power twice, the One-armed Elder had already discerned Lin Feng's martial art realm.

It was clearly Great Success!

Because the One-armed Elder himself had also cultivated this Third-grade Martial Art and naturally knew its power.

The One-armed Elder's gaze burned as he looked at Lin Feng, as if beholding a Prodigy.

His mind kept replaying the time when the Three Captains had trained in this palm technique.

Back then, the Three Captains had all complained bitterly, finding it extremely difficult to master.

The fastest among them had taken three hundred days to reach Great Success, while Lin Feng had used only two days?

The One-armed Elder remained silent for a long time, his thoughts churning.

A genius like this was no mere pond dweller.

A small pond like Wancheng City could not contain Lin Feng.

"There's hope! At this rate, with Lin Feng's talent, he'll be sent to the Commandery Demon Suppression Division sooner or later!"

The One-armed Elder thought to himself: "By then, as his recommender, I'll get plenty of benefits too—I might even return to the commandery city!"

If you can't find it by searching the book title, try searching the author instead—maybe it just changed names!

The commandery city, that is, the main city of Nanyang Commandery.

Compared to Wancheng, it was more than ten times larger, with experts as numerous as clouds!

In the commandery city, there were more opportunities and an easier path to advancement—far better than in Wancheng.

And the One-armed Elder had once been a member of the Commandery Demon Suppression Division.

He originally had both arms intact, but later, during a great battle with demons, he lost one arm, and his combat power declined.

That was when the big shots from the commandery city transferred him to Wancheng.

Now, the talent Lin Feng had revealed stirred the One-armed Elder's heart with excitement.

This boy—he was the opportunity to let him return to the commandery city!

"Good, good, good!"

The One-armed Elder laughed heartily, walked up to Lin Feng, his eyes bright as if admiring a peerless treasure.

"Your realm is still a bit low, only at the Eighth Level of Body Tempering!"

"If you were in the Houtian Realm, the Bone Corroding Seven Kill Palm could unleash far more terrifying power in your hands!"

As his words fell, the One-armed Elder waved his hand.

A great many Body Tempering Pills appeared directly.

Lin Feng's eyes narrowed.

So many Body Tempering Pills—counting them roughly, there had to be over a thousand, right?!

Even the One-armed Elder felt a slight pang of reluctance at taking out so many at once.

But his expression remained calm as he said with a smile, "Take them!"

"Senior, this—"

Lin Feng's gaze flickered. He hadn't expected the One-armed Elder to be so generous this time.

Giving him such terrifying cultivation resources?!

Heavens, so many Body Tempering Pills—if he swallowed and refined them all, he'd probably be close to the Ninth Layer of Body Tempering.

Lin Feng was extremely surprised, never imagining the One-armed Elder would suddenly give such a big gift.

He had come to the One-armed Elder for two reasons: first, to test his strength, and second, simply to show off his ability.

If he hid his talent away, how could the big shots ever see it?

To make progress, he naturally had to display his potential.

But Lin Feng also never expected the One-armed Elder to give him so many Body Tempering Pills at once.

It made him hesitate to accept them—after all, taking gifts meant being beholden!

"Take them without worry." The One-armed Elder smiled. "The stronger you become, the greater your use to our Demon Suppression Division."

Lin Feng said seriously, "May I ask what this junior must give in return? Senior, please speak plainly."

With so many Body Tempering Pills, Lin Feng did want them.

But he needed to understand why the One-armed Elder was doing this.

It couldn't really be pure charity—giving resources just because he saw talent, could it?

The One-armed Elder felt gratified inside. This Lin Feng really knew how things worked.

He spoke slowly, "The old man naturally has some selfish motives too!"

"With your talent, there's a good chance you'll enter the Commandery Demon Suppression Division and be nurtured as a Seed Demon Suppression Guard!"

"And if I'm your recommender, I can use that to return to the commandery city's Demon Suppression Division!"

"So, take them."

The One-armed Elder explained his intentions.

Lin Feng breathed a sigh of relief.

So that was it!

Lin Feng accepted all thousand-plus Body Tempering Pills and said respectfully, "Thank you, Senior!"

"Once this junior grows strong, I will do my utmost to help Senior return to the commandery city."

Lin Feng's solemn promise made the One-armed Elder's expression even more delighted!

The more he looked at Lin Feng, the more agreeable he found him.

"Don't put too much pressure on yourself. Just focus on your cultivation." The One-armed Elder smiled.

Lin Feng nodded.

Then, the One-armed Elder withdrew from the training ground, leaving Lin Feng to focus on his cultivation.

Lin Feng did not hesitate for a moment and immediately entered a cultivation state.

In such a chaotic world fraught with danger at every turn, he had to seize every opportunity to improve his strength.

And so he cultivated, unaware of how much time had passed.

One day, Captain Chen came to the Scripture Pavilion, specifically looking for Lin Feng.

If you can't find the book by searching the title, try searching the author—maybe it was just renamed!
