As Chen Chuan's blade fell, it felt like he had struck something both incredibly resilient and solid.
His eyes narrowed as he looked at the scales covering the man's body.
He recalled the Secret Snake Sect's documents on Power. They stated that when the Profound Snake Force was cultivated to its peak, a Fighter could cause their Mutated Organization to surface and form solid scales, rendering even sharp blades ineffective.
Clearly, Xu Xianwen had not yet reached that level of mastery; otherwise, he wouldn't have been wounded moments ago. But now, it seemed he had used some method to enter that very state.
His assumption was correct. Xu Xianwen had released all the medicinal power accumulated in his body at once, activating a pre-arranged ritual. This allowed him to elevate his Power by a whole level for a short period, during which his solid scales made him fearless of any blade.
