Jiang Ning immediately saw the silver light beneath the surface.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the next moment, the slight wound quickly healed, leaving no trace of blood as it restored to its original state.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He glanced again at the dagger in his hand, seeing that the sharp blade tip was already blunted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silver Silk Iron Armor!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Indeed, as resilient as armor, with incredibly strong defensive power!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ning couldn’t help but click his tongue in admiration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fact that the dagger made of ten-forged fine iron was blunted already indicated that the hardness of the skin woven with silver strands exceeded that of ordinary ten-forged fine iron.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such formidable defensive strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Allowed him to move forward amidst a forest of knives, a rain of guns, and arrows like a plague of locusts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The membrane below the muscles can shield against most of the soldiers’ weapons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because the so-called elite army, clad in armor and holding sharp weapons, is only made of fine iron forged around ten times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hundred-tempered fine iron, that is not something ordinary soldiers can use or afford.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because with the same volume of fine iron, the higher the forge count, its hardness increases, but its weight also continually rises.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No wonder the book says that forging Silver Silk Iron Armor is truly what makes you a battlefield invincible.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Jiang Ning had an epiphany.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the battlefield, blades and spears heed no one, and arrows least of all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Furthermore, human strength has limits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without the capability to ignore most battlefield dangers, how could one claim invincibility?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Silver Silk Iron Armor, indeed, can achieve this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When ordinary soldiers’ weapons graze the body, it would at most cause minor surface wounds even without any defense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only with this foundation, can one qualify as a battlefield invincible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"However, my foundation is not something an ordinary Martial Artist can match!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ning murmured, and his gaze fell upon the dagger made of hundred-tempered fine iron nearby.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to the dagger made of ten-forged fine iron, the dagger forged with hundred-tempered fine iron is much stronger in sharpness and hardness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, its weight is also significantly heavier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Holding the dagger made of hundred-tempered fine iron, Jiang Ning immediately felt its heavy heft.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He slightly weighed it in his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Given that the size and length of the two daggers are almost equal, the weight of the dagger made from hundred-tempered fine iron was more than twice that of the ten-forged one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clang——\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He drew the dagger, its sound clear and cold, with a gleam of cold light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The mirror-like blade could clearly reflect his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s a fine blade!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ning praised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He held the handle with his right hand and slashed the sharp point across his left arm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The outer skin was instantly cut open, revealing a silver membrane.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterward, he felt a significant resistance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like a regular blade trying to cut through a mesh woven with fine iron wires.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He exerted force again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chiz!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A sharp pain struck his arm, causing his brows to furrow slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He then saw blood stains appear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He glanced again at the blade tip of the dagger forged with hundred-tempered fine iron in his hand and saw the previously sharp blade had slightly deformed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not bad!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ning nodded at once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After testing with the hundred-tempered dagger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He realized that the strength of the Silver Silk Iron Armor he had forged was almost equal to that of hundred-tempered fine iron.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the hundred-tempered dagger could completely cut through his membrane, it also showed signs of being overwhelmed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It could only inflict a surface wound, making blood appear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And that was when he offered no resistance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I almost know the strength of the Silver Silk Iron Armor I forged now!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ning returned the dagger to its sheath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, the wound on his arm had already healed completely, leaving only a line-thin bloodstain as the only visible scar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned his gaze to the thousand-forged dagger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Let’s give it a try!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The thought arose, and he grabbed the dagger made of thousand-forged fine iron.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It felt heavy in his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Weighing more than three times that of the hundred-tempered dagger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yin!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dagger was unsheathed, resembling a dragon’s croon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its blade, unlike the previous two, did not have a mirror-smooth reflection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, it had a black sand-like sheen, with no reflection whatsoever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And it was marked with a pattern resembling dragon scales, clearly a work of some dedicated Forging Master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Subsequently, he tested the sharpness of the thousand-forged dagger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to the hundred-tempered dagger, the thousand-forged dagger was evidently much sharper and harder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his exertion, he easily broke through the layer of skin membrane.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But upon further penetration, he clearly felt the resistance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This showed that even under the cutting power of a thousand-forged weapon, without any resistance, the membrane effect of Silver Silk Iron Armor was extraordinary, greatly mitigating any inflicted wounds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After completing the test, he sheathed the dagger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He now fully understood the defensive prowess of his current body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ten-forged weapons could hardly harm him at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hundred-tempered weapons could only inflict superficial wounds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even thousand-forged weapons could breach his defenses, but causing serious injury would still be difficult.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"With such defenses, facing a Grandmaster, it should give me some ease, right?\" Jiang Ning murmured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though this was a question to himself, it was also filled with confidence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Silver Silk Iron Armor made him equivalent to wearing an armor made of hundred-tempered fine iron.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And could also fully self-heal in an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The survival boost it provided was significant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because in a real battle, he couldn’t simply stand still and let others attack him!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After completing the test for his body’s defensive power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He walked towards the courtyard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though it was pouring rain, it did not hinder his determination to continue his cultivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to Xiao Emei’s prior message, Xiao Qiushui would be arriving in Dongling City within a few days.\u003C\u002Fp>",1010,"2026-05-29T16:07:30.711Z","2026-06-01T04:29:42.045Z",1,"novelbin.me","c07939e82e4d8cffd17aeef1c0849147c1d237d6f2b0534230f3e1d96ad2da22","grinding-cultivation-toward-martial-saint-chapter-782","grinding-cultivation-toward-martial-saint-chapter-780",1570,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fgrinding-cultivation-toward-martial-saint-cover.jpg"]
