Invincibility Begins with Mastery of Fist Techniques

Chapter 280 273: Extreme

Furnace, Heart Core, release!!

In the ancient five elements, the heart belongs to fire.

The heart controls the blood. When blood flows violently, the body's temperature rises. Moreover, the special magnetic field emitted by the heart also matches the magnetic fields characterized by "temperature," "flame," and "scorching heat."

Through long years of training and prolonged exposure to this magnetic field, Liehong Mountain's body had long since undergone a massive transformation. His body could withstand extremely high temperatures and was perpetually in a state of high heat.

This caused his body temperature to be too high under normal conditions, creating a significant obstacle to his daily life. Consequently, he had to find a way to maintain his body temperature at a normal level.

And the heart, as the primary organ controlling body temperature, became Liehong Mountain's first choice for suppressing his heat.

Using five long, silver nails, Liehong Mountain sealed his own heart, allowing him to live a normal life in the ordinary world without causing destruction or harming others.

Only when these five silver nails were removed could Liehong Mountain's power be considered truly complete.

In an instant, an incredibly vast magnetic field erupted outward. This field was exceptionally pure.

Domineering, scorching, and intense, it possessed an extremely aggressive nature.

It didn't speak of Yin Yang Unity, nor did it pursue any internal balance. The magnetic field Liehong Mountain radiated was not a paradox of Yin Yang Unity, but rather an extreme, unorthodox path.

The path Liehong Mountain walked was completely different from Yin Yang Unity.

He himself called this path the "Path of Extremes."

This path did not cultivate Yin and Yang. Instead, it focused on advancing courageously with a single elemental magnetic field. Under the control of a formidable will over many years, it drastically altered the body's original structure, greatly enhancing its adaptive capabilities.

The Power generated by this path was no weaker than that of Yin Yang Unity. In fact, due to the singular magnetic field, it was even stronger in some aspects.

However, this path came with enormous risks. For one, Liehong Mountain couldn't control the abnormal rise in his body temperature and could only use silver nails to seal it. In contrast, experts of Yin Yang Unity could always maintain a state of internal balance. This was its greatest flaw.

Imbalance meant damage.

But regardless, having removed the seal on his heart, Liehong Mountain was now stronger than ever before.

This was the first time in many years he had gone all out.

Intense heat swept over everything. The surroundings on the street began to burn, flames roaring to life.

This level of heat should have been unbearable for a human body, but at the very core of the highest temperatures, Liehong Mountain remained unharmed.

The Path of Extremes had already altered his body's structure to a certain extent, allowing him to withstand the high heat.

"This Power..."

Wei He watched Liehong Mountain, who seemed to have transformed into a Celestial God. His immense magnetic field was even beginning to compress Wei He's own black light barrier, and a tremor of shock couldn't help but flash through his eyes.

'Hong, the ancient ruler of Donghua East, was known as the "Celestial Emperor" and "Father Yang." His direct First Generation descendants mostly possessed Talents related to "flame," "temperature," and "Energy.' Wei He had lived for so many ages and seen countless flame-type magnetic fields, but he had witnessed very few as pure as this one.

"Well then, let's begin."

Liehong Mountain's voice reached him, and his figure streaked past Wei He's eyes as an afterimage.

There were no clever tricks, just a direct assault.

He stepped forward and threw a punch.

Simple and straightforward.

It was a simple Orthodox Fist that even a boxing novice could learn instantly, but coming from Liehong Mountain's fist, it felt completely different.

This punch was layered with two magnetic fields.

One field was hidden within his fist, contained and unreleased, like a compressed spring, packing the terrifying temperature within his flesh.

The second magnetic field covered a three-meter radius around his fist. This field formed a shield of a certain temperature, compressing the air within that range to its absolute limit.

Then, as he threw the punch, the first, internal magnetic field surged. Its temperature instantly surpassed that of the second field, causing the air compressed between them to violently expand. This expansion pierced the thermal sphere created by the outer field, unleashing a terrifying amount of Energy.

Path of Extremes—Burst!

This was a technique unique to Liehong Mountain. Only someone who cultivated a single, extremely pure, and flawless magnetic field could achieve such precise control and execute such a move.

This was no longer a punch; it was a genuine cannonball.

"Arrogant!!"

HAAH!!

Wei He also abruptly increased his own Power. The fist belonging to Min Tao's body—as large as a human head—shattered the air as it collided with Liehong Mountain's.

BOOM!!

The collision of their fists actually produced the resounding boom of a cannon firing. Liehong Mountain's punch was like an exploding shell. The detonated air, combined with intense heat, not only created a massive impact but also inflicted horrific burn damage.

THUD! THUD! THUD!

Wei He's expression changed drastically. Under the force of that punch, he was actually driven back four or five steps, his entire body going numb.

'Damn it!! This body hasn't been properly nourished! It's far too weak!!'

Wei He cursed inwardly. This body had become the main reason his full strength was being restricted. Even if he disregarded the damage it was taking, the body's upper limit was what it was—a barrier he couldn't truly overcome.

'But even if I were in my prime, could I really have taken Liehong Mountain's attack head-on?'

"The first punch."

Liehong Mountain said flatly.

"Next is the second."

The next moment, his body vanished again and he struck out fiercely.

The same motion, the same technique—a simple Orthodox Fist.

BOOM!!!

The shockwave from the terrifying explosion blew away everything nearby. Wei He was knocked back several more steps, his body now almost completely rigid.

"The third punch."

However, before he had time to react, Liehong Mountain appeared before him once more.

The same technique.

No frills, just a punch thrown straight on.

BOOM!!!

This time, Wei He blocked with both arms, but the damage from the first two punches hadn't fully faded. His body couldn't take it, and he was sent tumbling away in a pathetic state.

BANG!!

As he tumbled, he found himself unknowingly forced into a corner of the street, his back pressed against a wall.

He regained his balance, and a massive shadow fell over him.

He looked up to see a tall, indifferent figure. The look in those eyes was no different from how one would look at an animal.

A sharp pain stabbed at his heart.

"Don't get too arrogant!!"

He let out a furious roar, but what met him was a giant, red-glowing fist.

"The fourth punch."

The voice, cold yet suppressing some immense fury, exploded next to his ear.
