Apart from Su Shiya, who was not a martial arts expert, everyone present understood what Venerable Ning Jing meant.
When a martial artist cultivated to the Peak Realm, unless they completed another qualitative change in their strength or plucked the Connate Phala to directly advance to the Connate Realm, it would be very difficult for their strength to advance even further.
However, as long as one forged the Forbidden Stone into armor, it could directly increase the attack and defense of a top grandmaster by 70%.
This bonus was absolutely terrifying!
To a top-notch grandmaster, any trace of improvement would greatly increase their combat strength.
With this kind of amplification and weakening ratio, although Wu Shuang was only at the early-Peak Realm, her strength was enough to match the grandmasters from the Three Absolutes Auction House, who had stepped into the Peak Realm for many years. She wouldn't be at a disadvantage at all.
