Luo Chen had clearly underestimated the Divine Breaker of Malevolence.0

At first, he treated it lightly, thinking it no more than a quirky method of refining willpower. But as his blood and qi stagnated, and the swelling pressure at his foot's acupuncture point began to build, the pain crept in slowly—dull at first, then sharp, hot, and pulsating.0

This was only the first acupuncture point.0

According to Wang Yuan, there were thirty-five more points after this. The Yinlingquan point on the foot was supposedly the easiest one.0

Just the thought of thirty-five more pain-inflicting points waiting to be stimulated made Luo Chen's scalp tingle.0

Still, Luo Chen could understand why this technique was so demanding. Whether one was a martial arts grandmaster or a cultivator, their bodies were inherently strong.0

To make them feel pain required more than ordinary external forces—it had to come from within. Through repeated stimulation of the acupuncture points, one's tolerance for pain would gradually increase.0

In other words, their willpower would grow stronger!0

Only with sufficient willpower could one endure the agony of malevolent energy entering their body. The so-called "shatter" didn't mean breaking the malevolent energy itself...0
