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

Chapter 187 Wang Wu Becomes a Saint!

A hidden paradise, its allure is too great!

Especially since the depths of Kunlun Ruins have been sealed for many years, the secret realms and caves within must contain a large number of treasures, even inheritances and sacred weapons!
The Celestial Saint, a half-saint, nodded, unusually agreeing with the Crimson Blood Pavilion Master, and said, "In that case, let's contact the various forces. Since this secret realm cave was discovered by the disciples of our seven major forces together with the Ironclad Sect and the Heavenly Gate Pass, it should rightfully belong to us all!"

…………

2024, April 11.

The weather is sunny.

"Ding!"

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

"Ding!"

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

Early in the morning, I completed my morning run on the military training ground, then had breakfast and took my medicine at the canteen before heading straight to the Hall of Merit.

He also has over 120 million merits.

He planned to exchange it all for cultivation resources.

Holding the "resource list," I spent over two hours marking and annotating it before finally spending that credit.

Jiang He exchanged another 1000 "Marrow Refining Pills".

1000 drops of various "King-level Beast Essence Blood", 10 drops of "Emperor-level Beast Essence Blood", two sets of SSS-level combat suits, and an SSS-level alloy weapon sword... SSS-level alloy is considered the most powerful alloy among the "new composite metals" currently being developed by Great Xia.

The SSS-level combat suit and weapons are sufficient to withstand the bursts of power and combat of the "Martial Arts Celestial Realm".

"Ding!"

"Consuming essence blood increases strength by 3000kg."

"Ding!"

"Consuming essence blood increases strength by 4000kg."

Obtain the resources.

Jiang He casually tossed two drops of "King-level ferocious beast essence blood" into his mouth and swallowed them.

The Grandmaster in charge of delivering the "supplies" to Jiang He was startled and hurriedly said, "Grandmaster Jiang, the energy contained in the essence blood of a King-level ferocious beast is extremely vast. You must be careful when refining it and never consume it continuously!"

hum!
The energy on Jiang He's body intertwined, and the power of the two drops of "King-level ferocious beast essence blood" was rapidly absorbed, transforming into his own blood and strength. He said, "Ah? Can't King-level ferocious beast essence blood be refined one after another?"

talking.

He then threw another drop of "King-level ferocious beast essence blood" into his mouth.

"Ding!"

"Consuming essence blood increases strength by 5000kg."

Jiang He said, "I've always refined it this way... I don't feel there's any major problem."

"........."

The Grandmaster of the Hall of Merit opened his mouth, inwardly exclaiming, "Holy crap!"

Consuming three drops of "King-level Ferocious Beast Essence Blood" consecutively?
Even an ordinary ninth-rank cultivator would have to be extremely careful when refining the "blood essence of a king-level ferocious beast." After refining one drop, they would probably have to wait three or four days before daring to refine the next drop... But Jiang He refined three drops in one go.
Moreover, his blood and energy have clearly increased significantly!
This is……

Instant refinement?

Jiang He tossed a few more drops of "King-level Ferocious Beast Essence Blood" into his mouth, humming a little tune as he left the Hall of Merit and headed out of the military camp.

System notifications kept ringing in my mind.

Jiang He shook his head and sighed, "They're all the blood essence of king-level ferocious beasts, but the difference is just too great... Some of them can increase my strength by 6000kg with just a drop of blood essence, while others can only increase it by 3000kg!"

This is also normal.

Even among king-level ferocious beasts, there are differences.

Some excel at speed, some at defense, and some possess great strength.

Moreover, even among the same type of ferocious beasts, the power contained in the blood essence of a low-level king-class ferocious beast and a high-level king-class ferocious beast is definitely different... otherwise, the price difference in the blood essence of a king-class ferocious beast would not be so great.

They left the military camp.

Jiang He arrived at Liu Feng's courtyard.

Yes.

Small courtyard.

Although Tianmen Pass has only unsealed the "East City" so far, the East City alone is larger than the largest "base city" of the Great Xia Dynasty. Therefore, martial artists who enter Tianmen Pass can be assigned a courtyard if they choose to stay in Tianmen Pass after completing their "military service".

The size of this courtyard is different.

Furthermore, because there are many spiritual veins beneath the "Heavenly Gate Pass", the concentration of spiritual energy in different courtyards varies.

The courtyard where Liu Feng lived was rather shabby.

There are two two-story buildings in the courtyard, as well as a vegetable garden. In the center of the courtyard stands an ancient tree of unknown origin. Although it is already November, the tree is still in bloom, and the whole courtyard is filled with the fragrance of flowers.

When Jiang He arrived at the courtyard, Liu Feng was practicing his swordplay inside.

The courtyard was filled with the glint of swords; it was quite a sight.

"Jiang He, you've arrived?"

Upon seeing Jiang He arrive, Liu Feng sheathed his sword, smiled, and said, "Come over...sit down."

Under that ancient tree, there is a round stone table.

There was also a pot of herbal tea brewing on the table.

Jiang He didn't stand on ceremony. After sitting down, he poured himself a cup of iced tea and asked, "Uncle Liu, has your injury healed?"

"of course."

Liu Feng laughed and said, "With the Sacred Blood Dragon Fruit given to me by my nephew, how could my injuries not heal?"

We chatted for a bit.

Liu Feng asked, "By the way, you never come here without a reason... So, what brings you here to see your uncle today?"

Jiang He: "It's nothing... I just have something I'd like to ask Uncle Chen, and I don't know where Uncle Chen lives."

Liu Feng's eyes widened, and he said, "What do you need to ask Chen Jingzhou for advice on? Isn't it the same if you ask me? Now I am also at the Celestial Realm, and I can even fight beyond my level. I just killed a mid-stage Celestial Realm cultivator. If it's about cultivation, I can also give you pointers!"

"really?"

Jiang He was half-believing and half-doubting, and said, "Uncle Liu, you know that I obtained a bit of inheritance in the [White Horse Mystic Light Heaven]... I can't cultivate the techniques in this inheritance for the time being, but I found another way and discovered that by using the power of blood and qi to simulate true qi and true essence, I can also activate the sword moves in it."

"Oh?"

Liu Feng became interested and said, "The master of [White Horse Mystic Light Heaven] must have been at least a Saint level, so the legacy he left behind must be incredibly profound. Uncle, could you please witness the sword techniques you mentioned?"

"of course can!"

Rivers and lakes can be turned upside down.

Take out the spirit sword.

With a flick of his wrist, the spirit sword in his hand slashed out.

call out!
A crimson sword light formed from blood and qi appeared as a crescent-shaped sword aura. It pierced through the air and struck the courtyard wall, making a soft "pfft" sound. It left a white sword mark on the wall.

A faint glimmer of light flashed by.

The white sword mark disappeared quickly.

"Good guy!"

Liu Feng said, "Being able to leave a sword mark on the buildings of Tianmen Pass, the power of your sword is almost comparable to the peak of the seventh rank." Jiang He sheathed his sword and said, "This is Sword One. I only need to use my blood and qi to simulate true essence to activate it. However, I cannot cultivate Sword Two because to cultivate Sword Two, I must cultivate sword intent."

"what?"

Liu Feng said, "Sword intent... Although I don't practice swordsmanship, I think sword intent and saber intent are the same."

Jiang He pondered for a moment.

That seems to be the truth!

So he humbly asked for guidance, saying, "Uncle Liu, please teach me how to cultivate sword intent!"

"........."

Hey!
I'm just a swordsman, how would I know how to cultivate sword intent?

But since he'd already said it, Liu Feng braced himself and said, "Well... actually, cultivating sword intent is the same as cultivating saber intent; you have to practice diligently. When your skill deepens, everything will naturally fall into place..."

Boom!

Just then, a loud bang rang out from outside Tianmen Pass.

Rumble!
Immediately afterwards, the entire Heavenly Gate Pass trembled, and holy runes lit up within the city, completely activating the entire holy city.

outside the city.

A demonic cloud and a dark cloud hung in the sky.

Two holy powers permeated the heavens and earth.

Above the demonic clouds and dark clouds, there were also powerful figures with formidable auras, each of them a Fish-Dragon Realm expert!
In the Qin Nine Provinces, Wang Wu appears.

Accompanying them was a tall and imposing figure. This person's aura was not much weaker than Qin Jiuzhou's, and he was also a master of the "Fish-Dragon Realm"!

This man is none other than Commander Ye Xuan, the strongest warrior in the Great Xia Army!
He usually stays at the military base in the Kunlun Mountains, but I never expected him to appear at Tianmen Pass today!
"Enemy attack!"

Liu Feng's expression changed. He looked up at the city and frowned, saying, "The Crimson Blood Pavilion Master, the Heavenly Saint Half-Saint, and the Forget-Worry Valley, the Red Lotus Palace... people from all seven major forces have actually arrived?"

Jiang He also looked up towards the outside of the city.

Liu Feng said, "You don't need to worry. Tianmen Pass is a holy city. With their methods, they are not capable of breaking through Tianmen Pass."

"Celestial Saint, Half-Saint, Crimson Blood Pavilion Master, Valley Master Sang, Granny Golden Flower, Sect Master Fang..."

Qin Jiuzhou laughed and said, "Gentlemen, what brings you here?"

The horizon outside the city.

The dark cloud quickly thinned out.

A figure appeared above the dark clouds.

However, he was a Heavenly Saint or a Half-Saint.

Behind him stood two experts from the Heavenly Saint Sect at the Fish-Dragon Realm, while in front of him were a group of young people. The Heavenly Saint Half-Saint smiled and said, "When we came to Heavenly Gate Pass today, we happened to encounter a group of people who had gotten lost in Kunlun Ruins, so we brought them here... Qin Jiuzhou, are these people your disciples from Heavenly Gate Pass?"

Skyrim.

Qin Jiuzhou's pupils suddenly contracted.

In the small courtyard.

Jiang He's expression suddenly changed!
He saw Yun Yanchen, Li Wanqing, Tian Jie, Yu Guanghai, Xie Xun, and even Wei Jian, Feng Shaoyu, and Chen Yu mixed in.

These people are all "new recruits" in the recruit camp.

There were more than sixty people.

It's clear they were captured by the Heavenly Saint Sect while on a mission!

"Damn it!"

Jiang He cursed and was about to run out when Liu Feng grabbed him, shook his head, and said, "Don't be impulsive... Even if the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up. With Minister Qin, Commander Ye, and Senior Wang Wu here, they'll be fine!"

Skyrim.

Qin Jiuzhou's aura began to rise, drawing upon the might of the Holy City to empower himself. He said in a deep voice, "Heavenly Saint, you, a dignified Half-Saint, actually kidnapped a young disciple of my Heavenly Gate Pass to blackmail me... Isn't this far too unbecoming of your status?"

"Qin Jiuzhou, don't make false accusations."

The Heavenly Saint Half-Saint smiled faintly: "I simply saw that they were lost in Kunlun Ruins and couldn't bear to see them devoured by the monsters there, so I helped them out along the way... How did that become blackmail?"

Wang Wu's sword intent surged, and he said in a deep voice, "Since that's the case, then release them!"

"Let's not rush to release them."

Tian Sheng, a half-saint, said, "Qin Jiuzhou, Wang Wu, a total of 168 disciples from our seven major forces, along with people from your Tianmen Pass and Tieyi Sect, entered that valley to explore. In the end, only the disciples from your Tianmen Pass and Tieyi Sect came out alive... Don't you intend to give us an explanation for this?"

Qin Jiuzhou's aura grew stronger and stronger, causing the entire Tianmen Pass to tremble continuously. Streams of holy might surged into the sky and merged into his body. His voice became icy cold as he said in a deep voice, "Heavenly Saints and Half-Saints, when seeking treasures and exploring, bear the consequences of their own deaths and injuries... Your disciples from the seven major forces are not skilled enough. Do you expect the disciples of Tianmen Pass to pay with their lives?"

aside.

Wang Wu gripped his battle sword tightly.

His body was trembling violently!

Unwilling!

anger!
despair!

A mix of emotions surged within him, and he roared inwardly... If I become a saint, how dare the seven great powers pressure Tianmen Pass like this?

Rumble!
Within him, a power erupted as if from a volcano.

Then...

Suddenly, his emotions calmed down, and he slowly closed his eyes!
A series of holy auras emanated from Wang Wu's body.

The next moment, beneath the Heavenly Gate, a "sacred vein" was activated, and a massive amount of sacred spiritual energy converged towards Wang Wu. Auspicious clouds appeared in the sky, and the strange light emanating from the clouds covered tens of thousands of miles of sky above Kunlun Ruins, creating a truly beautiful sight!
outside the city.

The brows of the Heavenly Saint and Half-Saint twitched wildly.

The Crimson Blood Lord looked surprised.

The Valley Master of Forget-Worry Valley and Granny Golden Flower, both peak Fish-Dragon Realm cultivators, paled. Some couldn't help but curse, "Damn it... he's become a saint!"

boom!
Wang Wu suddenly opened his eyes, two sword intents slicing through the sky. Holding his battle sword, his fighting spirit burst forth as if it were tangible. He roared, "Tian Sheng, release them... or today, even if Tianmen Pass is destroyed, I will slaughter your entire Tian Sheng Sect!"

Hey!
The Heavenly Saint and Half-Saint cursed fiercely in his heart!

Tianmen Pass...

It is the Holy City!
After Wang Wu advances to the level of a half-saint, he will surely be able to unleash even greater power from this holy city!
Moreover, he had already experienced Wang Wu's madness firsthand, and to be honest, he was genuinely a little panicked at the moment... But with the experts from the seven major forces gathered together and two of his subordinates standing behind him, he still had to save face.

The Heavenly Saint Half-Saint said, "I can release them, but the disciples of our seven major forces cannot die without knowing why... I already know that there is a secret realm hidden in that valley!"

"I also know that the one who slaughtered the disciples of my seven major forces was Jiang He from your Tianmen Pass!"

"Hand over Jiang..."

"Fuck your mother!"

Wang Wu roared, "Qin Jiuzhou, give me control of Tianmen Pass! Burn all the spiritual veins and holy veins within Tianmen Pass! Ye Xuan, have your military personnel prepare... all nuclear weapons to be aimed at the Tian Sheng Sect, the Crimson Blood Tower, and the other five major forces!"

His breakthroughs continue.

The holy aura emanating from him grew stronger and stronger...

now.

The best option would be for Wang Wu to find a place to properly complete his breakthrough and stabilize his cultivation, but time doesn't allow it!

Boom!

The power of the "Holy City" that was originally bestowed upon Qin Jiuzhou suddenly fell upon Wang Wu. Wang Wu's aura instantly surged, and he roared, "Release them first, then we'll negotiate... otherwise, we'll fight!"
