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

Chapter 165 One Punch Kills!
"........."

The true disciples of the Heavenly Saint Sect and the Crimson Blood Pavilion looked at each other, their faces turning extremely ugly!

Chen Jingzhou had fully revealed his aura and cultivation level, and he was indeed at the "mid-stage of the Celestial Realm," which was undeniable.

However, as his aura unfolded, the oppressive force and sense of crisis he brought were in no way inferior to the "Peak of the Celestial Realm" in the sect. Xu Runming even had a feeling that if Chen Jingzhou wanted to kill him, he probably wouldn't even need to use ten swords!

"Hahahaha!"

Seeing this, Liu Feng couldn't hold back any longer. He laughed loudly, "A bunch of trash, how dare you compare to Old Chen? Old Chen received the Sword Saint's inheritance when he was a Grandmaster. His cultivation techniques are far superior to yours, and his divine abilities far surpass yours... With his current level, killing you is as easy as cutting leeks!"

The expressions of all the true disciples changed again!
If so...

Once they enter the valley, how will they defend themselves if Chen Jingzhou attacks them?

The group secretly communicated, deciding to stick together for mutual support.

Once the discussion was nearly complete, Xu Runming stepped aside to make way.

Chen Jingzhou flashed and leaped towards the colorful glow.

However, the next moment, something unexpected happened!

hum!
The moment his body touched the multicolored light, the light trembled violently, and a powerful recoil force erupted, sending Chen Jingzhou flying.

It landed more than ten feet away.

Chen Jingzhou steadied himself, his expression turning serious.

The restrictions on this valley...

They actually don't allow anyone above the ninth rank to enter!

In that case, Jiang He and his group are in danger!

The reason Chen Jingzhou agreed to let Jiang He go in was because he himself wanted to go in too!
Inside the valley, Chen Jingzhou was confident that with his strength, he could still protect Jiang He and those ninth and eighth-rank officials.

I can't log in now...

There are more than 100 disciples from seven sects, including the Heavenly Saint Sect and the Crimson Blood Tower, with no fewer than 20 of them being ninth-rank disciples... If they join forces, Jiang He and his group will probably all be trapped inside!
As for the Ironclad Gate?
Ironclad Sect did indeed have a good relationship with Heavenly Gate Pass, and Qin Jiuzhou had even secretly reached an agreement with the higher-ups of Ironclad Sect.

But if the situation is too critical, why would they step forward to die?

Upon witnessing this scene, Xu Runming and the other disciples of the forces immediately stepped forward to investigate. After discovering the characteristics of this area of ​​restrictions, they felt a pang of regret, but also secretly breathed a sigh of relief...

If you can't go in, then don't go in.

Then I won't have to face Chen Jingzhou!

At least to outsiders, Chen Jingzhou wouldn't dare to act recklessly against them.

Xu Runming sighed, his face full of regret, and said, "What a pity... This restriction doesn't allow us to go in. It seems that this great opportunity for wealth and fortune is out of our reach."

This is obviously just an act.

He looked at Chen Jingzhou, Liu Feng, and Shui Qianyun and said, "Why do you three senior brothers from Tianmen Pass look so worried?"

"If you can't go in, then don't go in... Maybe you disciples of Tianmen Pass will be lucky and get the most precious treasure inside!"

Say it.

He even laughed a few times.

Chen Jingzhou's eyes flashed with sword intent as he coldly looked over.

Xu Runming then shut up.

…………

at the same time.

Within the glow of the sunset.

Jiang He carried Zhang San on his back, and Li Si and Wang Mazi in his arms, running wildly along the bluestone path for dozens of miles before stopping.

He turned his head and looked around, only to find that all around him was still a vast expanse of white fog.

The buildings were faintly visible in the mist, and seemed to be far away.

Behind.

The colorful glow at the entrance and everyone else had disappeared.

"what's the situation?"

"A group of eighth and ninth-rank officials, how could they get lost?"

Jiang He frowned, suspecting that the "white mist" might be the cause.

At this time.

Zhang San, who was on his back, made some groaning noises. He opened his drowsy eyes and asked, "Old...Sixth Brother, where is this?"

Li Si and Wang Mazi also woke up one after the other.

"This is inside a canyon."

Jiang He explained, "My Uncle Chen said that this is very likely the cave dwelling of a Fish-Dragon Realm expert..."

He briefly recounted what had happened outside the canyon.

Zhang San sighed, "Ah... in the end, I let you come in with me!"

Wang Mazi angrily cursed, "It's all Fourth Brother's fault! He managed to drug himself with a sleeping potion!"

Li Si knew he had made a mistake and explained in a low voice, "The situation was urgent at the time, and I didn't have time to test the wind direction... The key point is that I didn't know that Lao Liu's physique was so strong that the sleeping potion, which was enough to knock out a ninth-grade grandmaster, had no effect on him at all."

Jiang He smiled and said, "If we're just talking about physique, an ordinary ninth-grade Grandmaster isn't even worthy of carrying my shoes... Wait a minute!"

Before he could finish his sentence, he realized what was happening, a glint of light flashing in his eyes. He said, "Fourth Brother, you said your sleeping potion could knock out a ninth-rank Grandmaster?"

Li Si scratched the back of his head and chuckled, "If they're not on guard, it's still possible... but it can only incapacitate some ordinary ninth-rank grandmasters."

"Oh!"

Jiang He listened.

Somewhat disappointed.

What's the use of having a der?
"Sixth Brother, didn't you say a lot of people came in? Where are the others?"

Zhang San looked around and asked, "It's so quiet all around, it doesn't seem like many people have come in... Could it be that the white mist here can block not only sight but also sound?"

"It's the cave dwelling of a powerful person, that's normal."

Jiang He said, "In the novels I've read, the cave dwellings left behind by powerful figures are always elaborately decorated."

Upon hearing this, the three became interested and asked, "Are there any treasures like the Fiery Red Lotus mentioned in novels? Where are they usually kept?"

Jiang He thought for a moment and said, "According to the usual pattern, these kinds of things are usually spiritual herbs that powerful experts planted in their herb gardens before their death. Over time, they are nourished by spiritual energy and eventually turn into rare and precious treasures... There might even be some kind of spirit beast guarding such treasures."

"A medicinal herb garden?"

"Then let's go find the herb garden!"

Zhang San, Li Si, and Wang Mazi exchanged a few words and then walked forward.

"no!"

Jiang He quickly caught up and said, "Three brothers, don't run around. There might be some powerful puppets or special creatures or other dangers inside this cave... That's how it's written in novels!"

Zhang San said seriously, "Since it's written in the novel, it might actually exist. Everyone be careful!"

The four of them walked forward cautiously.

We walked about seven or eight miles.

A corpse appeared on the road.

The body was dressed in a black uniform robe with the words "Forget Worries" embroidered on the chest.

Li Si stepped forward to examine the body and said, "It was a disciple of the Forget-Worry Valley. His strength should have been around the eighth rank before he died. He was stabbed through the heart from behind by a sword. His body was dead with his eyes open and he didn't put up much resistance. Judging from the situation, it was probably an inside job."

"Judging from the wound, it should be a martial art from the Crimson Blood Pavilion."

Forget-Worry Valley is also one of the sects within Kunlun Ruins. Its strength and foundation are similar to those of the Ironclad Sect. The valley has a Fish-Dragon Realm expert in charge and has an excellent relationship with the Heavenly Saint Sect.

Li Si then found two green fruits, each the size of a fingernail, in the corpse's hand.

Then look to the side.

There was a small tree about half a meter tall next to the body.

He deduced, "This must be some kind of peculiar spiritual fruit... I don't recognize it? Fifth Brother... try it and see if it's poisonous."

"Damn it!" Wang Mazi's face turned green: "You're supposed to be a master of poisons, can you not be so incompetent? You always make me test your poisons... Do you remember the last time I was poisoned and had diarrhea for three days?"

"I'll try!"

The small green fruit was glistening and looked delicious. Jiang He couldn't help but swallow hard, and said righteously, "Being able to test the poison for Fourth Brother is the greatest honor of my life!"

Wang Mazi said, "Yes, yes, let Lao Liu try... He is a body-refining martial artist, with thick skin and tough flesh, he won't be poisoned so easily."

Zhang San: "Based on my judgment..."

Before he could finish speaking, Wang Mazi interrupted, saying, "Third Brother, let's wait and see what your judgment is. Let Sixth Brother test the poison first."

Jiang He took the small fruit and put it in his mouth.

Click click click.

I chewed it twice and swallowed it, pit and all.

An energy spread through his body, and a system notification sounded in his mind—

"Ding!"

"Consuming the spiritual fruit increases strength by 500 kg."

Li Si stared at it expectantly and asked, "Sixth Brother, is the fruit poisonous?"

Jiang He smacked his lips and said, "My mouth feels a little numb. I'm not sure if it's from poison or from the fruit itself... How about I try the other one?"

He ate the other fruit.

Savor it slowly.

"Ding!"

"Consuming the spirit fruit increases strength by 500 kg."

Jiang He: "It's confirmed. It was the fruit that brought the hemp with it, probably because it wasn't ripe yet."

Zhang San nodded, his eyes gleaming with wisdom, and said, "As expected, it's not poisonous, just as I suspected... If it were truly a poisonous fruit, the disciples of Crimson Blood Tower wouldn't have killed someone for a single poisonous fruit."

Jiang He took out three "Twenty-Four Flavor Rehmannia Pills" and swallowed them. He seemed to be thinking about something at first, and then nodded, deeply agreeing with Zhang San's judgment.

"what?"

Wang Mazi asked in surprise, "Sixth Brother, what did you eat?"

At this moment, Jiang He had already put away the "Twenty-Four Flavor Rehmannia Pill" and had just taken out the medicine for treating mental illness, saying, "Medicine... I specifically applied for it from the dean when I came. Would you three brothers like to take some?"

Wang Mazi's face lit up with joy, and he said, "Eat some, eat some... It's been so long since I've had this, I've almost forgotten what it tastes like."

Jiang He divided the medicine into three portions for each of the three people, and also took one portion himself.

"Ding!"

"Rational use of medication, strength +10kg."

Li Si said, "Delicious..."

He looked ahead and said, "Since there are already spirit fruit trees here, it means that we are not far from the medicine garden... It is possible that people from forces such as Crimson Blood Tower have already gotten there first, so everyone should be careful."

The four continued walking forward.

In front.

A medicinal herb garden appeared.

This medicinal herb garden is extremely large, surrounded by a fence.

The two wooden doors of the herb garden were wide open, and the mist inside was even thicker than outside. A rich medicinal fragrance wafted in all directions. Zhang San only took a sniff and felt his internal energy surging, as if he was about to break through his cultivation level.

He looked up at the sky and saw that the strange phenomenon formed by the "Blazing Red Lotus" and other treasures was right above this place. He was overjoyed and said, "Sixth Brother's judgment was right. What is written in the novel is indeed true. The Blazing Red Lotus and other treasures are indeed in the medicine garden!"

He flashed into the herb garden.

then……

boom!
He was thrown backward at an even faster speed, landing heavily on the ground. He stumbled back four or five steps, clutching his chest, and looked into the herb garden.

"This place has been occupied by my Crimson Blood Tower. Everyone else, get out of here immediately!"

"Otherwise... kill without mercy!"

In the medicinal herb garden.

A figure walked out.

Holding a cyan longsword, he swept his gaze across the area before finally landing on Jiang He, exclaiming with delight, "It's you... that lunatic from Tianmen Pass who wants to achieve physical sainthood?"

"It's you!"

Jiang He recognized the man as well. His gaze darkened, and he clenched his fists so tightly they cracked. He said, "A piece of trash from the Crimson Blood Pavilion, an eighth-rank!"

The eighth-rank official laughed loudly and said, "I failed to kill you outside the valley before, but I didn't expect to run into you so soon after entering... It seems that fate has already decreed that you will die by my hand!"

His laughter startled the other disciples in the herb garden.

Another eighth-rank official has emerged.

One of them glanced at the man and said, "Junior Brother Zhen, keep your voice down. Senior Brother Zhuang and Senior Brother Su are breaking the restrictions in the herb garden. If you disturb them, you won't be spared!"

This person exudes a powerful aura.

His cultivation level should be around the peak of the eighth rank. His pupils are a light green color, and his face has a texture like snakeskin. Judging from his appearance, he should be a "Celestial Demon Clan".

The "Junior Brother Zhen" said, "Senior Brother, don't worry. I can kill a little guy who hasn't even reached the seventh rank with one move... But those three, one of them is even at the eighth rank. I'll have to trouble Senior Brother Zhou with that."

Senior Brother Zhou glanced at Zhang San, Li Si, and Wang Mazi, and said calmly, "An early stage of the eighth rank is not worth mentioning... Junior Brother Zhen, let's finish this quickly and not make too much of a commotion!"

"In addition to the Fiery Red Lotus, this herb garden contains four other elemental treasures comparable to the Fiery Red Lotus, as well as various precious spiritual herbs. Once Senior Brother Zhuang and Senior Brother Su break through the restrictions, they will surely be able to greatly increase their strength by relying on the spiritual herbs within, and may even break through to the Celestial Realm!"

"They...don't want to attract any more people."

The two chatted amongst themselves.

They didn't take Jiang He and his group seriously at all.

In their view...

One useless person who hasn't even reached the seventh rank, two seventh-rank individuals, and one early-stage eighth-rank individual—that's really nothing.

Junior Brother Zhen laughed and said, "Don't worry, Senior Brother Zhou, I understand... After all, if too many people are attracted, there won't be any left for you and me."

He walked towards the river, a peaceful smile on his face, and said, "Little guy, don't shout or scream later... As long as you listen to me, I'll give you a dignified and easy death."

Jiang He grinned and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Senior Brother... Senior Brother, stop talking nonsense and make your move!"

Zheng!
Just then, on the other side...

Senior Brother Zhou had already drawn his sword and charged at Wang Mazi.

puff!
Li Si flicked his hand, throwing a handful of black powder at "Senior Brother Zhou" who was rushing towards him.

Senior Brother Zhou was shocked and hurriedly waved his hand, trying to use his true energy to sweep away the "black powder"... but he found that a feeling of weakness came over him, and his cultivation was instantly suppressed by about 70%. He was shocked and said, "You used poison?"

call out!
Just now.

A crimson sword light rose up.

Zhang San beheaded Senior Brother Zhou with a single sword stroke, spitting out curses: "Hey... you dog, how dare you not take me and Fourth Brother seriously?"

Upon seeing this, "Junior Brother Zhen's" expression changed drastically, and he was about to shout out...

Boom!

Jiang He unleashed the Heavenly Demon Disintegration Technique, delivering a "3x Great Sage Fist" to his chest!
boom!
This early-stage eighth-rank Crimson Blood Tower disciple had his chest pierced through.

With a tremor of his hand, Jiang He threw the corpse to the ground, wiped the blood from his fist, and sneered, "You dare to be distracted while fighting me? With this little strength, you dare to bark like a dog!"

"Be bold!"

A loud shout rang out from within the herb garden: "How dare you kill a disciple of my Crimson Blood Pavilion... You're courting death!"

Boom!

An overwhelming force swept towards Jianghe and his companions in an instant!
