Wherever the hundred-zhang fist auras passed, they forcibly pressed more than a dozen trenches tens of zhang deep into the sea!
Splat!
Facing the impact of the fist auras, the peak third-tier Thunder Armor Kuang Sha's fifty-zhang-long demonic body exploded into a cloud of blood mist in midair!
Its bone armor shattered, its flesh reduced to pulp!
Led by Lie Feng, the ten Diamond Body Cultivators withdrew their fists and stood with impassive expressions.
Su Zixuan's breath caught.
She had seen the Demon Lotus Sect elites under Qing Chen's command and the hardened soldiers of the Qiongzhou Army, but these ten before her... felt entirely different.
"M-my Lord," Su Zixuan said, her voice a little dry, "these people are..."
"Our own," Qing Chen said calmly. "Concentrate on setting up the formation."
He offered no explanation, nor did he need to.
These ten Vajra Realm body cultivators, along with the ten thousand body cultivators aboard the two treasure ships inside the pagoda and another ten thousand currently clearing out demon beasts elsewhere, were all the finest body cultivators he had secretly nurtured with the Nine-Luminaries Glazed Vidyaraja Pagoda over more than a hundred years!
Of these twenty thousand body cultivators, even the weakest had reached the late Body Tempering Realm, equivalent to the late Qi Refining Stage. More than a thousand were in the Boulder Realm, including eighteen Vajra Realm body cultivators and two at half-step indestructible.
Unfortunately, seemingly constrained by his access privileges, he found it difficult to nurture Immortal Realm body cultivators.
Even so, this secret force composed entirely of body cultivators was already astonishing enough.
They cultivated no magic power, touched no karma, and were not listed in the Demon Lotus Sect's name register. They were one of Qing Chen's true trump cards.
"How is the clearing progressing?"
