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

Chapter 146 The Power of Three Dragons, It Feels So Good to Be Home!

"On the way?"

Tian Jie's expression changed drastically, and he said, "Master Shui, you can't say that, it's bad luck!"

You used the wrong word!

Shui Qianyun thought to herself.

But his facial expression remained calm and indifferent, still cold and aloof.

She glanced at Tian Jie and said indifferently, "With your abilities, if you don't improve much, sending you to Tianmen Pass is really no different from sending you on your way."

“My dad had mentioned Tianmen Pass before, but when I pressed him for details, he always gave vague answers, saying that I would only be qualified to know about Tianmen Pass after I became a martial arts grandmaster.”

Yu Wenxuan asked, "Master Shui... what exactly is Tianmen Pass? Where is it located?"

Shui Qianyun: "You'll know once you get to Tianmen Pass... All you need to know is that Tianmen Pass is the most important barrier for our Great Xia and the entire Blue Star!"

"Once Tianmen Pass is breached, the Great Xia Dynasty will cease to exist!"

"Even the entire civilization of Earth could be overthrown!"

"The world beyond Tianmen Pass is extremely dangerous. Let alone you... even martial arts masters could perish at any moment!"

"All right."

"Everyone, get ready. We'll set off early tomorrow morning to return to Western Xia."

A group of outstanding young people walked out of Shui Qianyun's room one after another, but instead of leaving, they gathered in the corridor.

Yu Wenxuan said, "I believe everyone has heard their elders mention Tianmen Pass... Come on, let's go to my room and exchange information. Perhaps we can learn more about Tianmen Pass."

Most of these contestants come from respectable family backgrounds.

It would be highly unlikely that their elders hadn't revealed anything about "Tianmen Pass" to them.

Jiang He had originally planned to test his physical defenses with Tian Jie again, but upon hearing this, he also entered Yu Wenxuan's room through the barrier.

Yu Wenxuan quickly said, "Brother Jiang... please sit down."

Jiang He didn't stand on ceremony and casually sat down on the sofa.

Then the others either sat or stood.

Yu Wenxuan began, saying, "Let me speak first... As far as I know, Tianmen Pass has existed since ancient times. It is a huge holy city with holy rune formations, as well as many opportunities and places of enlightenment left by our ancestors of the Great Xia Dynasty."

Tian Jie said, "I've heard about this too. It's said that our Director Chen Jingzhou of Xixia once had a great opportunity inside Tianmen Pass and obtained the inheritance of a sword saint, which is why he has the title of 'Xixia Sword Saint'."

The other geniuses also spoke up, sharing what they knew.

Yun Yanchen also spoke up, "I don't know much about Tianmen Pass. I only know that there is also a Heavenly Demon Sect in the world behind Tianmen Pass... Our Great Xia's Heavenly Demon Sect is actually a descendant of that force."

As she spoke, she glanced at Jiang He unconsciously.

She once vowed to wipe out the Heavenly Demon Sect and avenge Jianghe!
That's why her father, Yun Zheng, told her this information...

Yun Zheng was already a top-tier half-step Grandmaster eighteen years ago.

In those days, martial arts were not as developed as they are now, and the number of masters was naturally not as large. At the peak of the sixth rank, one had to enter "Tianmen Pass" to serve. Yun Zheng had also entered "Tianmen Pass" before, so it was normal for him to know these things.

Jiang He lit a cigarette and listened silently.

These people only had a general idea of ​​Tianmen Pass, but when everyone's information was put together, it became quite extensive. Gradually, everyone gained a general impression of Tianmen Pass, and they all seemed quite expectant and excited!
"I am certain that my journey to Tianmen Pass will bring me great fortune and allow me to inherit the legacy of a sage!"

"If I could obtain a ray of holy light, I could probably instantly reach the Grandmaster realm..."

The young people, one after another, spoke up, their eyes filled with longing.

"Cough cough!"

Jiang He couldn't stand it any longer. He coughed twice, stubbed out his cigarette, and said, "Everyone has shared what they know. It would be inappropriate for me not to say something."

Yu Wenxuan quickly laughed and said, "Brother Jiang is joking. We're just chatting casually. Everyone only has a superficial understanding of Tianmen Pass. We'll know the specifics once we get there."

Jiang He said, "It's alright, I was just saying."

He said, "I don't know much about Tianmen Pass either. I only know that the world beyond Tianmen Pass is vast and boundless. A single mountain range or lake in it may be larger than the entire territory of our Great Xia!"

"And such a vast world was once reduced to a battlefield!"

"The Hundred Races deployed a large number of troops to this place, and a series of great battles broke out... This great battle wiped out most of the creatures in that world. Warriors of our strength might not even be considered cannon fodder in that battle back then."

"In a battle between powerful individuals, even a slight outbreak can cause countless deaths and injuries among people of our level."

The young people, who were initially excited and hopeful, all became serious.

Jiang He changed the subject, saying, "Of course, it's said that there's a ceasefire now, and that world isn't as dangerous as it used to be... If everyone goes there, as long as they're careful, it won't be so easy to die."

"........."

Tian Jie said, "No... Brother Jiang, who told you all this? Didn't they say that our Great Xia has already established a firm foothold there?"

"Moreover, Minister Qin has already leaped over the dragon gate and entered the realm of fish and dragons, becoming a figure akin to a terrestrial immortal. With him guarding Tianmen Pass, he should be able to protect us, right?"

It turns out that the realm above the Martial Arts Celestial Realm is called the "Fish-Dragon Realm"!
A thought flashed through Jiang He's mind.

He said, "I don't know the specifics, I just wanted to remind everyone of something..."

"Tianmen Pass is extremely dangerous!"

"We're not going on vacation... We hope that when we come back, we won't be in urns containing our ashes."

Jiang He stood up, looked at Tian Jie, and said, "Brother Tian... could you come out for a moment?"

Tian Jie glanced at Yu Wenxuan and the others, then followed them to Jiang He's room.

Jiang He took out his knife, took off his shirt, and circulated his internal energy. A faint golden light shimmered on his skin as he spoke, "My physical body has made a little progress these past two days. I'd like to trouble Brother Tian to strike me a few more times and test my defense."

Tian Jie has been brooding over the fact that last time he only managed to break through Jiang He's skin with a single cut.

Upon hearing this, he spat into his palm, rubbed his hands together, took the knife, and said, "Brother Jiang... I didn't unleash my full sword skills last time, but this time, I won't hold back!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang He's eyes lit up.

But then he became worried and said, "Brother Tian, ​​be careful when you chop. Don't cut my neck, or I'm afraid I'll be beheaded and might die."

"???"

Tian Jie was amused.

What does it mean that if someone's head is cut off, they might die?
If a person's head is cut off, they will definitely die... unless your cultivation reaches the legendary "Saint" level, in which case limbs can regenerate.

boom!
His body erupted with powerful true energy, and his sword intent permeated the air!
Brother Jiang!

"The sword technique I practice is called the Nine Blades of the Heavenly River. It is an ancient martial arts sword technique that was unearthed from the [Purple Mystery Cave Illuminating the Sky] secret realm. It is said that an ancient swordsman sat by the Yellow River for three years and comprehended it."

The sword intent emanating from Tian Jie grew stronger and stronger.

He said in a deep voice, “This sword technique is too advanced. I only started practicing it after I broke through to the half-step Grandmaster level, and I only figured out a little bit of its intricacies yesterday… Brother Jiang, be careful!”

brush!
He slashed with one strike!

His own true energy and sword intent were integrated into this strike, and a sword aura as long as a river slashed towards Jiang He's waist and abdomen.

Jiang He assumed a horse stance, neither dodging nor avoiding.

Zheng!
A long, drawn-out clang of metal clashing rang out, causing Jiang He's body to sway slightly.

The blade energy exploded the moment it struck Jiang He's waist and abdomen, turning into tiny blade energies that scattered and created a hurricane of blade energy in the room!
puff puff!

A series of faint sounds came from inside, and tiny knife marks appeared on the floor, walls, and ceiling of the room.

Furniture such as televisions and sofas, as well as lamps, were directly chopped up.

Jiang He glanced at his waist and abdomen, noticing a red mark. He rubbed it, looked at the messy room, and couldn't help but praise, "Excellent swordsmanship!"

"With this swordsmanship alone, Brother Tian is more than qualified to rank in the top 100 in this martial arts competition!"

Tian Jie tossed the knife to Jiang He, gave a wry smile, and said sullenly, "The rankings in this martial arts competition are no longer important to us participants..."

"I'm afraid that nowadays, the biggest goal of all the contestants is no longer to win the championship, but to defeat you!"

"pity……"

"Those contestants had no idea what kind of monster they were trying to defeat!"

Jiang He defeated Gulisuruhe, who had advanced to the Martial Arts Grandmaster level, with a single punch, demonstrating that his combat power was already at the Grandmaster level!

Even though he was a half-step grandmaster, and he unleashed his ultimate sword technique with all his might, he couldn't even scratch Jiang He...

Tian Jie even suspected that it would be difficult for an ordinary martial arts master to harm Jiang He in the slightest!

"Not a grandmaster, but better than a grandmaster!"

He recalled the Grandmaster's evaluation of Jiang He in the Western Frontier Base City and couldn't help but sigh. Seeing this, Jiang He quickly comforted him, "Brother Tian, ​​don't be discouraged. A swordsman should be fearless!"

"I'm only slightly ahead of you right now!"

"But your path in martial arts is clear. You only need to comprehend the state of oneness with heaven and man to step into the realm of martial arts grandmaster, and then cultivate to become an eighth-grade grandmaster and a ninth-grade great grandmaster!"

"but I……"

"I still don't know how to become a Grandmaster!"

Jiang He gave a bitter laugh.

Shaking his head and sighing, he said with a sigh, "Master Shui said that a body-refining master must achieve the circulation of qi and blood throughout the body, the unity of mind and will, the unity of will and qi, and the unity of qi and strength... I still haven't figured it out!"

"Not to mention the limits she mentioned..."

"I still haven't seen where my limits are!"

"How can you break it if you can't even see it?" "…………"

No!

Tian Jie opened his mouth, but swallowed the words back down.
What the hell is the meaning of your disappointed look?
Isn't it better not to see your own limits?

This means we haven't reached our limit yet, and we can continue to improve!
It was late at night, almost dawn.

Jiang He adjusted his mindset and said, "Brother Tian, ​​let's go...out for a late-night snack!"

Tian Jie: "Okay, we're leaving tomorrow, let's have a drink together."

"........."

Jiang He: "Let's skip the drinking, let's just have some late-night snacks... After all, we have to return to Xixia early tomorrow morning, and I'm afraid I won't be able to get up if I get drunk!"

That's obviously an excuse.

Jiang He was mainly worried that Tian Jie would fall asleep after drinking two bottles of wine, and he would have to carry him back himself.

The two left the hotel, found a barbecue restaurant, ordered a few drinks, and a large table of meat skewers, grilled fish, and grilled chives.

"Ding!"

"A balanced diet can increase your strength by 10kg."

Eat and drink enough.

Back at the hotel, Jiang He took out the Bone Tempering Pill and began to "cultivate" while taking the pill, all the while pondering the second level of the Great Sage Fist.

"Ding!"

"Swallow the pill, strength +100kg".

"Ding!"

"Swallow the pill, strength +100kg".

He refined a total of 7 drops of the Golden Armored Tortoise King's essence blood, which not only greatly enhanced Jiang He's physique but also greatly improved his strength. Now, his physical strength is close to that of three dragons.

Jiang He stayed up all night "cultivating," consuming more than 500 "Bone Tempering Pills." Finally, the number after the "Strength" column in the system attribute panel changed to "Power of Three Dragons."

now.

It was already 7:20 a.m.

After washing up, Jiang He put all his personal belongings into his storage ring, left the hotel, and completed his morning run.

"Ding!"

"Proper exercise can increase strength by 10 kg."

Back to the hotel.

Eat breakfast, take your medicine.

Around 8:20, Shui Qianyun gathered everyone in Xixia Base City and said, "Everyone, get ready. The car will arrive in 10 minutes. If there's anything you want to do or buy, hurry up and do it."

What the hell!

Jiang He suddenly slapped his bald head and said, "I almost forgot... I still have some things to do!"

"Sister Shui, you guys go to the airport and wait for me, I'll be right there."

Before Shui Qianyun could speak.

He then ran away in a flash.

Jiang He ran all the way to the martial arts tournament venue, found the rest room in Kyoto base city, and asked, "Where is Wei Changhai?"

"what?"

In the corner of the lounge, Wei Changhai stood up, his face dark, and said, "Jiang He, don't push your luck... I know you're not a Grandmaster now, but you're better than one. But I, Wei Changhai, am not one to be trifled with. At worst, I'll unleash my secret technique and we'll see who's stronger!"

Jiang He looked Wei Changhai up and down and found that he looked normal, which meant that his injuries had obviously healed.

then……

boom!
The Heavenly Demon Disintegration Technique erupted, saying, "Then hurry up and unleash it! I promised others that I would put a little pressure on you to help you step into the realm of Martial Arts Grandmaster. Now Li Wanqing, Duanmu Feng, Xu Rulai, and Gulisu Ruhe have all broken through, and you are the only one left!"

"........."

Nima!

Wei Changhai's face turned green.

I was just saying it casually, and you actually took it seriously?

If I were to unleash my secret techniques in a battle today, my martial arts foundation would be damaged, and I fear I would have no hope of ever breaking through again in this lifetime.

He changed his tone and asked, "Breakthrough?"

"You should have said so earlier... I, Wei Changhai, have never been inferior to anyone in my life. Duanmu Feng and Xu Rulai, who are my equals, have already broken through. How could I fall behind?"

He sat cross-legged and said, "Wait a moment... I'll break through right away!"

next moment.

hum!
A powerful aura rose from Wei Changhai's body.

He opened his eyes and laughed loudly, "It's done... I, Wei, have finally achieved the realm of martial arts grandmaster!"

He looked at Jiang He and sneered, "Jiang He... come on, you want to fight? I'll fight you!"

"Today, I will avenge that punch!"

Jiang He clenched his fist and threw a punch.

boom!
Punch it out!
With a powerful punch, Wei Changhai cried out and was sent flying backward, crashing through the wall of the lounge and rolling dozens of meters outside the venue before finally stopping, his head lolling to the side as he passed out.

Jiang He withdrew the Heavenly Demon Disintegration Technique and said calmly, "Someone like you... thinks you can fight me?"

This commotion.

It attracted a lot of people's attention.

The contestants sitting at the front of the venue all crowded around, especially one person who was peeking around and stood out the most!
Jiang He noticed him immediately, darted over and grabbed his collar, saying, "Xie Guangkun, pay me back!"

"........."

Xie Kun was almost in tears: "Jiang He, don't push your luck... When did I ever owe you money?"

Jiang He: "Last time I kidnapped you to the wilderness area, we fought. I tore your clothes apart. Later you bought a new one from me. You didn't have any money with you at the time, so you gave me an IOU for 100 million. Have you forgotten?"

Xie Kun stared at the IOU, dumbfounded. He roared, "Damn it, did you add that 'ten thousand' later? The font color is different! The IOU is in black, but this 'ten thousand' is in blue!"

Jiang He put away the IOU and said, "I don't care. If you don't pay me back, I'll beat you up again today!"

The media reporters were also alerted and gathered around.

Xie Kun's face turned red with anger!

He didn't want to pay; he just wanted to prove himself.

But considering that Jiang He was crazy... who knows what he might do, he could only take out his phone and say, "What's your account number? I'll transfer it to you!"

100 million arrived.

Jiang He then released Xie Kun and said with a smile, "Thank you... Brother Guang Kun, see you at Tianmen Pass again."

Leave the venue.

Jianghe sped off again, heading straight for the airport.

"Finally, we're going back..."

"I'm actually feeling a little bit of anticipation!"

this moment.

Jiang He felt a sense of homecoming, like a wanderer returning home, and wished he could teleport back immediately.

…………

December 10, 10pm.

Wucheng.

The main entrance of Anning Mental Health Rehabilitation Center.

Jiang He got out of the black SUV.

Standing outside the gate.

Looking at the familiar plants and trees before him, he stretched and sighed, "It feels so good to be home!"

"Jiang He!"

Inside the gate.

Chen Yu, Wei Jian, Lao Wang, and the other mental patients all looked over and then questioned, "Jia Baoan, why can Jiang He go out, but we can't?"

"Let us out!"

"I want to go home for the Chinese New Year!"
