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

Time flies, like a fleeting moment.

It has been three days since we entered the [White Horse Mysterious Light Heaven].

Peach Blossom Spring.

In the bamboo forest.

"one two Three……"

"Forty-seven, forty-eight...forty-nine?"

Jiang He scratched the back of his head and muttered, "How come there are only forty-nine...it should be fifty!"

He glanced at the system properties panel.

Name: Jiang He

[Age: 20 years old]

Occupation: Mentally ill patient

[Strength: 150 Dragon Power]

My physical strength has indeed increased by 50 Dragon Power... This means I must have cut it 50 times.

"That's all."

"I can't find the ball."

"Let's bury it first."

After all, it was flesh cut from his own body; throwing it away carelessly wasn't Jiang He's style. He punched a tree, creating a small crater and burying all the stalks inside. Suddenly, the story of "Journey to the West" popped into his mind, and he couldn't help but think:
"If Tang Sanzang had my abilities back then, he could have fed all the monsters he encountered on his journey to the Western Paradise..."

He then "looked" at the "Holy Source" in his mind.

The light emitted by the "Holy Source" dimmed somewhat, likely due to the depletion of its internal power.

Jiang He sat on the ground, looking deep in thought.

Holy Source...

Why does it have this effect?
no doubt.

The power contained within the Holy Source is extremely terrifying!

In particular, the "Sacred Source" he obtained was not a semi-saint "Sacred Source," but the Sacred Source of a Spirit Race "Saint." However, the "Eastern Extreme True Man" erased the sacred thoughts and will within it and passed on his swordsmanship and the [Eastern Extreme Natural Technique] to it!
“When a normal martial artist obtains a Sacred Source, in addition to receiving its inheritance, they can also absorb the power within the Sacred Source to cultivate.”

"so……"

"Only martial artists who obtain the Sacred Source can cultivate so quickly!"

"I am a body-refining martial artist, unable to actively obtain the power of the Sacred Source through cultivation, but I can obtain it passively..."

Jiang He had doubts.

The system may also have played a role in this.

Otherwise, even if the power in this "Holy Source" has the effect of "limb regeneration", it is impossible for it to grow back in a few seconds after a single cut!
I didn't dwell on this matter too much.

Jiang He began to calculate his current combat strength.

150 Dragon's basic physical strength...

If unleashed at its maximum potential, it can unleash the power of 3000 dragons!
After undergoing "50" self-harms, the power unleashed by the Holy Source not only "regenerated severed limbs" but also strengthened Jiang He's physical body 50 times. Jiang He tried it out, unleashing 2000 Dragon Power this time, and his arms and fists only felt slightly sore.

If you unleash 2500 dragon power, your arm will be torn apart by blood and flesh.

This is within acceptable limits.

With his body's abnormal regenerative ability, this kind of injury would be completely healed in about 2 minutes.

“Ordinary top-tier Celestial Realm cultivators can only unleash about 1500 dragon power under normal circumstances… Of course, there are geniuses in every realm, and we cannot rule out those Celestial Realm cultivators who have strong martial arts intent, powerful supernatural abilities, and strong foundations in their cultivation techniques.”

For example, Chen Jingzhou.

He is currently in the late stage of the Celestial Realm, and if he were to unleash his full potential, he could unleash 1500 dragon power!

"So, you mean I can kill Uncle Chen with one punch now?"

Think about this.

Jiang He felt a surge of excitement for no apparent reason.

Just two and a half months ago, the scene of the Western Xia Sword Saint slicing through the sky with a single sword and killing the Heavenly Demon Sect's Guardian Deity from more than ten miles away was still vivid in Jiang He's mind. At that time, how envious he was.

And now.

He felt a sense of accomplishment that he could suppress the "Western Xia Sword Saint" with a mere flick of his wrist.

The only thing that frustrated Jianghe was...

"As my strength grows, the effects of the Super Berserk Pill take longer to take hold, and its duration is also shortened considerably. I estimate that once my physical strength reaches 200 Dragon Power, the Super Berserk Pill will completely lose its effectiveness!"

"After we get back, let Fourth Brother try it out and see if he can concoct an even stronger elixir."

Take out your phone.

He glanced at the time.

2024年，11月15日，上午9:58分。

Jiang He took out three "Twenty-Four Flavor Rehmannia Pills" and swallowed them. He then said, "Xiao Bai... let's go out."

They left Peach Blossom Spring.

Jiang He took out the "Sacred Intent" and activated the restrictions within the [White Horse Mystic Light Heaven]. With a "buzz," he teleported the people from the Great Xia and Ironclad Sect to the White Jade Square.

"Ok?"

He glanced around and frowned, asking, "What's going on? Why are there so many people missing?"

One side has five Celestial Realm experts and ten Ninth Rank experts.

At this moment, the Ironclad Sect only had 13 people, while the Great Xia Sect had 14.

A disciple of the Ironclad Sect said, "There are some dangers inside the Weapon Pavilion. Two of our ninth-rank inner disciples accidentally touched the restriction and were killed by it."

only……

The disciples of the Ironclad Sect did not show much sadness on their faces.

On the contrary, several disciples could not hide their excitement and agitation, presumably because they had gained a lot.

Jiang He then looked at Chen Jingzhou and asked, "Uncle Chen, what about us?"

Chen Jingzhou asked in surprise, "What do you mean, 'our side'?"

His aura had become much stronger and deeper, especially his sword intent, which had become even more sharp than before, clearly indicating that he had gained a lot from entering the [White Horse Profound Light Heaven].

He glanced at Jiang He, seemingly understanding what Jiang He meant, and said, "We have no casualties on our side, but Xiahou Wu was unlucky and got injured."

Xiahou Wu laughed and said, "A minor injury is nothing compared to the gains."

"???"

No casualties?

Jiang He frowned and silently counted... How come there were only 14 people left if there were no casualties?
What the hell?
Didn't you count yourself?

That's okay.

Jiang He said, "Three days have passed, and I'm sure everyone has gained a lot from this trip."

Most people had smiles on their faces.

One of the true disciples of the Ironclad Sect wore a bitter smile.

Jiang He couldn't help but ask, "Why does this senior brother look so worried? Could it be that he hasn't found an opportunity yet?"

The true disciple of the Ironclad Sect sighed and said, "There was an opportunity... but a sacred weapon that I had almost obtained has slipped away."

Everyone looked at him, and Jiang He forced a smile and said, "What is destined to happen will happen, and what is not destined to happen cannot be forced... Opportunities are simply a matter of fate, so there's no need to worry too much about them... Alright, everyone get ready, let's go out!"

He urges the divine will.

hum!
A force descended, enveloping everyone.

Everyone felt a sudden darkness before their eyes and a dizzying sensation. The next moment, they found themselves in the valley. Upon exiting the valley, only Qin Jiuzhou and Mo Hanyi were waiting outside. The Fish-Dragon Realm experts from the seven major forces were nowhere to be seen... which was to be expected, since all their disciples were dead, what would they be waiting here for?

"Brother Qin, farewell."

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Mo Hanyi left with the disciples of the Ironclad Sect.

With a wave of his hand, Qin Jiuzhou conjured a small cloud boat in his palm. He tossed it into the air, where it swelled in the wind and instantly grew to a hundred meters long. Everyone landed on the cloud boat.

First, he asked everyone about their haul.

Chen Jingzhou has broken through to the peak of the Celestial Realm.

of course.

With his talent, even without this opportunity, he would have broken through quickly. This trip to the White Horse Profound Light Heaven simply accelerated his breakthrough, allowing him to reach the Martial Dao Celestial Realm more quickly!
Xiahou Wu and the other Celestial Realm cultivators also made their own gains.

The ten ninth-rank individuals also have their own opportunities, with some even confident of breaking through to the Celestial Realm and planning to do so once they return to Tianmen Pass.

"Not bad!"

Qin Jiuzhou smiled and said, "However, I suggest that you return to Great Xia to break through. Our Great Xia is somewhat special. Breaking through there will make your future path in martial arts much smoother."

These people seem to know about this.

Jiang He, however, was quite surprised and asked, "Seventh Brother, is there perhaps some explanation behind this?"

Qin Jiuzhou said, "I don't know the specifics... but our Great Xia, and even the entire Blue Star, is not just what it appears on the surface. How could an ordinary Void Realm planet have such a foundation?"

His expression suddenly became extremely solemn, and he said, "When I returned to Great Xia last time, I explored various places... and discovered some auras that made my heart tremble. In short, the waters of Blue Star are very deep, and as for whether they are good or bad, I cannot tell for the time being."

Upon hearing this, everyone's expression changed.

Jiang He, however, was carefree and nodded secretly, saying, "That's more like it... With the revival of spiritual energy and the arrival of a great era, some ancient powerhouses will return. At that time, there might be some great calamity or something like a mastermind behind the scenes that will unleash a great calamity upon the heavens and myriad realms, and countless billions of living beings will perish in this calamity!"

"Only by breaking through a certain limit or transcending a certain level of cultivation can one live to see the next era!"

Qin Jiuzhou was deeply shaken. He had indeed seen these terms—calamity, transcendence, era—in a fragment of a book at Tianmen Pass. He looked at Jiang He and asked, "How do you know these things?"

Jiang He: "It's all written in the novel..."

Qin Jiuzhou: "???"

Jiang He then said, "By the way, Seventh Brother, you mentioned before that there's a spiritual vein inside your cloud boat that serves as its power source?"

Qin Jiuzhou nodded.

Jiang He chuckled and said, "Seventh Brother, this time when I opened the White Horse Profound Light Heaven, I killed a large number of disciples from the seven major forces, and also brought a lot of opportunities to our Great Xia's seniors... Why don't you reward me with a few spiritual veins, Seventh Brother?"

Qin Jiuzhou's face darkened, and he cursed, "Don't even think about it. But this time you have indeed made a great contribution to our Great Xia. When we get back, I can grant you an extra merit. If you want a spiritual vein... go to the Hall of Merit to exchange for it yourself. I can seal the spiritual vein into your Dao weapon for free."

Ok!

Spiritual veins are indeed precious.

Rewarding a few items is somewhat unrealistic.

Since we can exchange for them, we can do so gradually.

Just then, Qin Jiuzhou suddenly increased the speed of the cloud boat.

brush!
The cloud boat cut through the sky, traveling at several times the speed of sound, and in just over thirty minutes it traversed 3,600 kilometers and landed inside Tianmen Pass.

Jiang He returned to the recruit camp dormitory and found that Zhang San, Li Si, Wang Mazi, Chen Yu, Wei Jian, and Feng Shaoyu were not there. So he went to the Hall of Merit and took out all the spiritual weapons, manuals, and spiritual items he needed to exchange.

The grandmasters in the Hall of Merit almost had their eyes pop out!

What the hell!

This guy just redeemed 200 million merit points a few days ago, and now he has such a huge pile of supplies?

wrong!

These things are worth much more than what we had last time.

After examining the items, the Grandmaster of the Hall of Merit said, "Grandmaster Jiang, these items are valued at a total of 980 million merit points. I'll take the liberty of adding 1000 million merit points for you, how about that?"

"can!"

Jiang He nodded and handed over his identity token.

The grandmaster swiped the device and said, "Huh... Grandmaster Jiang, you just had another transfer of 1000 million merit points. I checked it for you, and it's a reward issued from above."

"Oh?"

1000 million?

Jiang He's eyes lit up, and he asked, "Does your [Hall of Merit] sell spiritual veins? What's the price?"

Boom!

Just now.

The entire Tianmen Pass suddenly trembled.

Jiang He's expression changed slightly. He rushed out of Tianmen Pass and saw several rockets taking off simultaneously. He exclaimed in surprise, "Our Tianmen Pass has rocket launch facilities... Holy crap, they're nuclear bombs!"

He realized what was happening before he could finish his sentence.

Then a surge of holy power rose into the sky.

Wang Wu, wielding the sacred weapon sword, flew into the sky above Tianmen Pass.

Qin Jiuzhou and Commander Ye of the military also took to the air, along with other martial artists at the Celestial Phenomenon Realm, Celestial Human Realm, and Extraordinary Awakening Realm.

Qin Jiuzhou, his killing intent palpable, declared, “Gentlemen… Forget-Worry Valley has gone too far, insulting us as cowards. If we don’t avenge this, I, Qin Jiuzhou, will not swallow this insult… Follow me on this expedition and raze Forget-Worry Valley to the ground!”

More and more breaths are rising.

One after another, those at the Celestial Realm ascended into the sky.

Jiang He was stunned for a moment.

Seventh Brother...

Are we really going to attack Forget-Worry Valley?

He immediately shouted towards the sky, "Seventh Brother, Uncle Chen... Uncle Liu, take me with you, I want to go and fight the enemy too!"

Liu Feng glanced down and scolded, "Jiang He, go back... The weakest among those who went on this expedition is at the Celestial Realm. What are you doing, a mere Body Refinement Rank 8?"

Qin Jiuzhou, Chen Jingzhou, and the others looked over and sent a telepathic message to Jiang He to return.

wipe!
Jiang He roared, "You look down on me, don't you? Although I, Jiang, am only at the eighth level of Body Refinement, my combat strength is not weak. I can kill a Celestial Realm cultivator like a dog!"

This statement came out.

The group of Celestial Realm cultivators in the sky frowned, especially those who weren't very familiar with Jiang He, who all showed displeasure.

Rivers and lakes have no say in these matters!
Attack the Valley of Forgetfulness!

I've heard that the Valley of Forgetfulness has a very strong foundation, with more than three hundred true disciples... If we could kill thirty or fifty of them, wouldn't we be able to easily gain thirty or fifty dragon power?
He knew that at a time like this, nothing he said would make a difference.

Only by demonstrating your strength can you convince them!
boom!
With a burst of physical strength based on 150 Dragon Force, Jiang He's powerful blood and qi burst forth, transforming into a cloud of blood. He bent his legs slightly and then leaped into the sky.

While he was in mid-air, he activated the Heavenly Demon Disintegration Technique, and his blood and qi instantly ignited!
Then clench your fist...

Punch out!
4x Great Sage Fist!

1500 Dragon Fist Power Explosion!
Rumble!
The heavens and earth trembled as a blood dragon shot out with this punch, heading straight for the group of Celestial Realm experts.

What the hell!

Many cultivators at the Celestial Realm level gasped inwardly, especially those with weaker cultivation levels who felt a chill run down their spines, experiencing a sense of impending death. Qin Jiuzhou waved his hand, deflecting the force of Jiang He's punch, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

"That punch of yours..."

"It is no weaker than the peak of the Celestial Realm."

"You may accompany me on this campaign... Chen Jingzhou, take him with you!"

Chen Jingzhou unleashed a sword aura, pulling Jiang He to his side. Jiang He chuckled and said, "Seventh Brother, I didn't use my full strength in that punch just now. If I were to unleash my full power, someone like my Uncle Chen, a peak Celestial Realm cultivator, could be sent to heaven with a single punch!"

Chen Jingzhou: "???" (End of Chapter)
