I'm a body cultivator, so it's normal for me to destroy a star with one punch, right?

Chapter 114 If you don't dare touch ultra-high voltage electricity, what's the point of body cultivation?

Not just the corridor.

Similar incidents occurred in other rooms throughout the floor, and one chandelier even sparked due to a short circuit!

The entire fourth floor of the hotel instantly turned pitch black.

"what!"

In the corridor.

The female employee in the office lady outfit screamed and burst into tears, dropping her walkie-talkie to the ground.

Shui Qianyun had gathered eleven contestants in her room for a briefing when she heard the commotion. Immediately, she released her mental energy and probed into room 408... into the bathroom of room 408.

Then I "saw"...

Jiang He lay in the bathtub.

There were also two pieces of electrical wire stuffed in the bathtub...

"Good guy!"

Shui Qianyun's eyes flickered slightly, and she thought to herself, "Yanchen, this little boyfriend of mine, is quite well-endowed..."

"Room 408?"

"Isn't that Jiang He's room?"

Yun Yanchen's expression changed, and he quickly ran out of the room, followed by Tian Jie, and then the other 9 contestants, each running faster than the last.

They weren't worried about the rivers.

I just wanted to watch the excitement.

Let's not talk about these young people.

Even Jia Wang and a few others who stayed at the hotel to "watch the game" were alerted.

…………

Let's go back 10 seconds.

Room 408.

In the bathroom.

Jiang He took off his bathrobe and stepped barefoot into the electric bathtub.

Zizi!

Jiang He's body trembled violently a few times.

Immediately afterwards, he saw a large burst of sparks shoot out of the socket at the other end of the wire, the bathroom light shattered with a crack, and a thick smell of smoke and burnt plastic instantly filled the air.

"Ding!"

"Electric current tempering, strength +10kg".

A system notification sounded in my mind.

Jiang He was somewhat disappointed and shook his head secretly: "Too little... When the Holy Maiden of the Heavenly Demon Sect struck me, the lightning tempering could increase my strength by 60 kg, while the aftershocks of the lightning tribulation when Zhuo Bufan underwent tribulation could increase his strength by 1000 kg."

This is an electric current quenching process.

Did that increase your strength by 10kg?

Who's shivering here?
The problem is that it was so loud, the wiring short-circuited, the bathroom light blew out, and it was pitch black outside... I guess the power went out.

I came out of the bathroom.

Jiang He was about to call the front desk when he heard a burst of noisy footsteps.

boom!
The door was slammed open with great force.

Yun Yanchen rushed into the room, anxiously asking, "Jiang He, are you alright?"

"It's okay."

Jiang He asked in surprise, "Weren't you all in a meeting? Why are you all here?"

Behind the clouds and dust.

Tian Jie and other contestants also flocked into the room.

Then came Jia Wang and other people who came to watch the game.

Hotel staff arrived at that moment, and someone shouted, "Is there a power outage?"

Someone replied, "No... the main switch on the 4th floor tripped, should I lift it up?"

next moment.

Lights were turned on in the corridors and rooms.

Yun Yanchen suddenly blushed, turned around, squeezed out of the crowd, and left the room.

"Fuck!"

Tian Jie stared wide-eyed at Jiang He, uttered a curse, and then angrily muttered "Damn it!" before turning and leaving.

The performances of the other contestants were roughly the same as Tian Jie's.

Some people even felt inferior after glancing at the river.

"grass!"

Even veteran spectators like Jia Wang couldn't help but utter a curse.

I missed all the excitement!
It's frustrating to have someone mess with you!
Damn it! ! !

Then came the hotel staff...

The two female staff members, in particular, couldn't help but scream and immediately covered their eyes, but couldn't resist their curiosity and slightly parted their fingers.

Jiang He put on his bathrobe and asked, "What's going on? Why are you all in my room?"

Someone has entered the bathroom to check.

They discovered a charred blackened socket hole and two electrical wires next to the bathtub.

The female shop assistant who delivered the power lines to Jianghe was both amused and exasperated. She advised, "Sir, if there's something bothering you, you can talk to us... You're still young, so handsome, and in such good shape. There's no need to make things difficult for yourself."

"What can't be overcome?"

Jiang He glared at him: "Look at what you're saying, making it sound like I'm about to commit suicide... I just plugged in two wires to turn on the electricity, wanting to temper my body with the current, what kind of hotel is this?"

"The circuit breaker tripped due to a short circuit before the body had even been tempered."

"electricity……"

"Electrical quenching?"

The hotel staff were dumbfounded.

Even the "veterans" like Jia Wang looked at each other in bewilderment.

Especially Jia Wang.

Both being from Wucheng, and having "crossed paths" with Jiang He, they were quite familiar with each other.

He knew about Jiang He's deeds and how difficult it was for this young man. He was a promising young man suffering from an evil poison. Even when he had mental problems, he never gave up on cultivating and becoming stronger, and he forged his own path of body refinement.

Therefore, Jia Wang had a very good impression of Jiang He.

He spoke earnestly, saying, "Jiang He, I understand your desire to become stronger... but there are no shortcuts in martial arts cultivation, especially for body-refining martial artists. You need to temper your body step by step, hone your muscles and bones, strengthen your physique, and enhance your qi and blood."

"Experts have previously proposed using electric current to stimulate flesh and acupoints as a method of body tempering, but after testing, it was found that the harm of using electric current to temper the body is too great!"

"Electric current can stimulate the nerves and damage human cells. When electric current passes through the human body, it will generate high heat and chemical reactions, leaving hidden injuries in the body. It is not worth the loss."

To dissuade Jiang He from using the "electric current tempering method," Jia Wang spoke very seriously, saying, "I heard that the expert who proposed the 'electric current tempering method' used himself as an experiment and later became paralyzed."

"what?"

Jiang He listened, completely stunned.

However, this did not make him give up the idea of ​​[Electric Tempering], but he said: "Master Jia, rest assured, I will not do anything reckless."

The "veterans" left quickly.

Jiang He had assumed that these people were all quite powerful and that since they had finally gathered together, they would inevitably have some "exchanges and discussions."

Who would have thought that a short while later...

The sound of mahjong tiles being rubbed could be heard coming from one of the rooms.

Instead of repairing the burnt-out socket, the hotel staff simply sealed it off and took the two wires away.

Jiang He sneered.

The 220V voltage is garbage; it's not very effective and it's prone to tripping. Do you think I would waste my time on it?
"Ding!"

"A balanced diet will increase your strength by 10kg!" He sat on the sofa in his room, took out some fruit he had packed and ate it, lost in thought.

"Since the effects of body tempering are limited at 220V..."

"Then, what if we increase the voltage?"

For example, high-voltage electricity?
Household voltage is generally 220V, while some small workshops may use up to 360V.

These all fall under the category of "low pressure".

而高压则是10KV-220KV，超高压是330KV-750KV，特高压1000KV。

Jiang He looked it up online.

The power grids outside major base cities and fortresses are ultra-high voltage. There is no data online on the exact voltage, but if a low-grade ferocious beast touches the power grid, the huge current will instantly burn it to a crisp.

There are even several videos online of people committing suicide by touching electric fences.

Jiang He opened the video and studied it carefully.

It was discovered that the people caught fire the moment they touched the electric grid, and within seconds they were reduced to charred, dried-up corpses.

"Isn't that terrifying?"

He took out three pills of Twenty-Four Flavor Rehmannia Pill and swallowed them.

Hearing the system notification in his mind, Jiang He's eyes gradually hardened...

"So what if it's terrifying?"

"As a martial artist, one must forge ahead without hesitation and have the great courage to face the terror of life and death!"

"If I don't even dare to touch the ultra-high voltage power grid, how can I talk about reaching the pinnacle of martial arts and becoming invincible in the world?"

No matter how powerful the voltage of his ultra-high voltage power grid is, can it compare to a lightning strike?

He took off his bathrobe.

He changed into a black tracksuit and then went straight out of the hotel.

Nighttime in Jiangnan Base City.

It's noticeably more bustling than the Xixia base city.

Even before the revival of spiritual energy, this place was one of the wealthiest regions in the Great Xia Dynasty, with a much higher population density than the harsh and cold land of Western Xia... and population determines the foundation for a city's development.

I heard that the Jiangnan base city has a total of six garrison cities, and each garrison city has a population of over 200 million.

Especially with the National Youth Martial Arts Competition approaching.

The Jiangnan base city has become even more bustling during this period.

Various banners and posters are plastered throughout the streets and alleys, while electronic screens on the exterior of tall buildings are playing advertisements for the National Youth Martial Arts Competition on a loop. More than a dozen of the strong "favorites" for the championship have even filmed music videos, which are being played on a loop on the big screens.

Jiang He also saw a familiar female celebrity dressed in combat gear, looking very dashing, singing a theme song specially made for the National Youth Martial Arts Competition.

"This is……"

"Liu Feifei?"

Jiang He recognized the female celebrity.

She is known as the number one beauty in the entertainment industry of Great Xia, and it is said that her martial arts level has reached the sixth rank, so she is quite powerful.

Li Si's favorite is Liu Feifei.

Unfortunately, Wang Wu looked down on him, believing that martial artists should go to the wilderness to hunt ferocious beasts and contribute to the country. He even said that he could kill eight martial artists with one strike if they had no practical combat experience!

Jiang He's expression turned somewhat melancholy whenever he thought of Zhang San, Li Si, and Wang Wu.

"Hey!"

"I wonder how Third Brother, Fourth Brother, and Fifth Brother are doing over there..."

Through Chen Jingzhou.

Jiang He had already found out that Zhang San, Li Si, and Wang Wu had all gone to "Tianmen". As his strength increased, he learned more and more about "Tianmen".

That place is an "alien world," extremely vast, inhabited by many powerful races. The living conditions for the Great Xia there are not very good... Many powerful figures reside behind the "Heavenly Gate Pass."

Most of the military's forces were also behind Tianmen.

In recent years, Great Xia has gained a foothold there. Ten years ago, as long as one's cultivation level reached the sixth rank, one had to enter the Heavenly Gate to serve in battle. After the mandatory service period ended, one could choose to return to Great Xia or continue to stay there.

Therefore, the "Heavenly Gate" exists.

It's a secret to ordinary people.

But for some powerful individuals and high-ranking officials, this was something they already knew.

He reached out and flagged down a taxi.

Jiang He instinctively drew his battle knife...

He took it back and said, "Master...send me out of the city."

The driver was very talkative. He glanced at Jiang He and asked with a smile, "Young man, are you from out of town?"

"Ah."

"You came to Jiangnan to participate in the martial arts competition?"

Jiang He laughed and said, "I don't have the qualifications to participate... I just came with a friend to join in the fun."

The driver said, "That's quite impressive. You seem to be a very skilled martial artist. Leaving the city so late... are you heading to the wilderness?"

"That's not it."

Jiang He said, "I'm going to check on the power grid... By the way, driver, where do you park your car for me later? Otherwise, it will be hard to get a taxi when I come back."

"???"

The driver was completely bewildered and asked in surprise, "What's so interesting about the power grid?"

soon.

Out of the city.

Jiang He got out of the car and said, "Driver, you can just park your car here. I'll settle the fare with you when we get back."

Say it.

He pulled out a handful of Qi and Blood Pills, stuffed them into his mouth, and strode towards the power grid.

Perhaps because the National Youth Martial Arts Competition is about to begin, the security in Jiangnan Base City is very tight. Even at 10 p.m., there are still heavily armed soldiers patrolling outside the city.

A soldier spotted the river and immediately shouted, "Halt... No one is allowed to approach within eight meters of the electric fence."

The rivers wouldn't listen.

They continued walking towards the power grid.

not far away.

The driver seemed to realize something, pushed open the car door, turned on his phone to record, and shouted, "Quick...stop him! This young man is probably trying to commit suicide by electrocution!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang He was afraid of being stopped.

Whoosh!
It erupted suddenly.

He strode to the electric grid.

As you get closer, you can faintly hear a hissing sound from the ultra-high voltage current.

Jiang He didn't think too much about it.

Put your hands up.

Snapped!
I pressed it directly.

next moment.

A powerful electric current instantly spread throughout Jianghe's body, as if a huge suction force had pulled him onto the electric grid.

His body was trembling violently.

There were even bright electric currents flowing up and down his body.

A smell of burnt flesh and blood instantly rose into the night sky and drifted on the night wind.

puff!

Flames erupted from Jiang He's body!
