After that, no slash of a blade or chop of an axe, no divine weapon, would mean anything to him. He would also completely disregard the effects of divine abilities and spells, effectively possessing an ultimate defense that nullified both physical attacks and divine abilities and spells.
From a physics standpoint, breaking down neutrons was exceptionally difficult. Applying the principles of spirit-repelling treasured materials to imbue them with extraordinary protection through spell resistance would be enough to surpass the current theoretical limits of the cultivation world.
