Hidden Worries

After absorbing the Azure Blue Flower and breaking the Indestructible Vajra Body through to the seventh level,

Chen Fan's true body had undergone a qualitative leap in constitution.

Even without activating the divine ability of the Indestructible Vajra Body, while in his normal state, the strength and defense of his physical body far surpassed what they had once been.

If he activated it, then even without the White Emperor Armor, simply standing there, an ordinary third-level Chang Sheng cultivator would absolutely be unable to break his defenses.
