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

Chapter 22 The Spirit of Plants and Trees, the Black Fire Spirit Root!
On the bus of Benlei Martial Arts School.

There were three people sitting in the room.

One of them is Chen Xiang, the sixth senior brother of Benlei Martial Arts School, who has the cultivation level of the fifth rank in martial arts.

There was also a martial arts disciple with a third-rank martial arts skill, and Li Qiang.

Li Qiang was there to "recognize people" and incidentally acted as the driver.

At this moment, Li Qiang's face was full of anger.

As he searched for a parking space inside the hospital, he cursed, "Damn it, are the security guards at this hospital hired from among the patients? What kind of twisted logic is that?"

You have to register just to get into a hospital!
Simply stating "looking for someone" as the reason for going to the hospital is not enough; you must specify in detail who you are looking for, including their surname and given name!
The martial arts disciple, who was at the third rank in martial arts, couldn't help but ask, "Then how did he let me through?"

Li Qiang gritted his teeth and said, "I wrote down that I was seeing a doctor before he let me in..."

Park the car.

Li Qiang said, "Senior Brother Chen, Senior Brother Bai, we don't know the name of that mentally ill person, nor do we have a photo of him... How should we find him?"

Chen Xiang spoke casually, "Didn't you run into him when you were having late-night snacks with Ma Long?"

"Go ask the nurses and doctors at the hospital, describe the characteristics, maybe someone knows... If that doesn't work, go to each ward and search!"

"They assaulted a disciple of our Benlei Martial Arts School; this matter demands an explanation!"

Chen Xiang felt it was a bit strange to come and ask a mentally ill person for an explanation.

If word gets out...

If a formal disciple of the Benlei Martial Arts School is injured by a mentally ill person, the only one affected will be the Benlei Martial Arts School.

But he also knew.

This is the "senior brother's" order.

"My senior brother is highly regarded by our master, but his personality is also very similar to our master's. He is suspicious by nature and must suspect that this is the work of other martial arts schools... Sending me to the mental hospital may just be to confirm that there is no such person in this mental hospital at all!"

In the car.

Chen Xiang secretly changed his mind.

Li Qiang has already gotten out of the car.

He recalled the features of the shirtless man eating barbecue at the next table, stopped a doctor, glanced at the doctor's name tag, and said, "Hello, are you Dr. Feng Shaoyu?"

Feng Shaoyu looked up, and asked impatiently, "What's wrong?"

Depend on!
Is everyone at this hospital, from security guards to doctors, this despicable?

Li Qiang thought to himself, but on the surface he smiled and said, "Dr. Feng, I want to ask you about a patient... I don't know the patient's name, but he... is very handsome, very dashing, and has a great physique."

After saying that, Li Qiang regretted it.

This characteristic...

How could we possibly find them?
However, he found that the doctor named "Feng Shaoyu" was somewhat angry after hearing his description, and said, "The person you are looking for is called Jiang He, right? He is in ward 207 of the inpatient department."

Li Qiang's eyes lit up: "Dr. Feng, can you take me to him?"

Feng Shaoyu: "Take you with me? Get lost!"

…………

inpatient department.

VIP ward.

Zhang San, who had been missing for two and a half days, returned to the hospital.

When Jiang He arrived at the VIP ward, three old men, Zhang San, Li Si, and Wang Mazi, were sitting side by side on the sofa in the living room, eating breakfast.

"Third Brother, you're back?"

Zhang San smiled and nodded: "Yes, I'm back."

Fifth Brother... your injuries have healed?

"Okay!"

Wang Mazi's eyes widened as he cursed, "I was just suffering from mental exhaustion, but you and Lao Si gave me fractures and ruptured lungs."

Li Si buried his head in his millet porridge.

Jiang He whispered, "I was just trying to give you first aid when I saw you fainted, Fifth Brother... I didn't know you were so fragile, and your ribs broke with just a light press."

Damn it!
Wang Mazi's face turned purple with anger. He roared, "You're blaming me now? Don't you know how strong you are?"

Jiang He's voice became even softer: "I only have the strength of 2 tons... Fifth Brother, you can't even handle 2 tons?"

"Two and a half tons, you're really..."

The curse was about to spill from Wang Mazi's lips when he suddenly realized what he was saying and exclaimed in surprise, "Your punching power has reached 2 tons?"

Jiang He glanced at the system attribute panel and said, "It's not punching power... it's just that my strength is just over 2 tons. My power generation technique is not very stable yet. Sometimes I can throw a punch with 2 tons of punching power, sometimes less, and sometimes more."

Wang Mazi, Zhang San, and Li Si looked at each other in bewilderment.

You should know... just a few days ago, Jiang He's punching power was barely close to 2 tons!
How many days has it been?

Can pure physical strength increase this quickly?

This kid spends all his time in the hospital, so he's unlikely to have any opportunities...

Seeing that the three were somewhat skeptical, Jiang He said, "How about... Third Brother, I punch you and see?"

"No, no, no."

Zhang San said, "Third Brother believes in you..."

He sighed and said, "Jiang He, your third brother promised you that when your strength reaches ten thousand jin, he would give you a treasure. Do you remember?"

Jiang He nodded.

Zhang San said, "Originally, your third brother planned to send you away when your strength reached ten thousand jin... but there have been some issues these past few days. For some reason, your fourth brother, fifth brother, and I may have to leave the hospital temporarily."

Jiang He's expression shifted slightly, and he quickly asked, "Was it because you kidnapped Yun Yanchen last time and were punished by the Martial Arts Administration Bureau? If so, I can go to Yun Yanchen and ask her to intercede for you."

"That's not it."

Zhang San said, "It's just that the three of us brothers have been hiding in Anning Hospital for too long and want to go out and move around... You don't need to ask about the specifics. You'll know when you reach the level of a martial arts grandmaster in the future."

We've spent these days together.

to be frank.

Jiang He has feelings for Zhang San, Li Si, and Wang Mazi.

These three old men have a rather unusual thought process.

But he holds nothing back when it comes to himself.

After a moment of silence, Jiang He asked, "Third Brother, Fourth Brother, Fifth Brother, when are you planning to leave?"

Zhang San said, "This afternoon."

Jiang He said, "It's still early, and I still owe my three older brothers a drink... How about this, I'll make a call and have someone send over some good wine and food, as a farewell gift for my three older brothers."

"it is good!"

Wang Mazi stood up and said, "Fifth Brother was right about you..."

He turned around and went into the bedroom.

He took out a knife from under the bed and said, "Fifth Brother originally intended to give you the Annihilation Blade... but Fifth Brother still has some unfulfilled wishes and needs the Annihilation Blade to accompany him on his journey."

"This knife is an S-grade alloy battle knife. Fifth Brother asked your Third Brother to buy it for you. It is 110cm long and a suitable amount of black iron was incorporated into the blade during its forging. It weighs a full 880 jin. Since you are on the path of body refinement, this knife is the most suitable for you."

Wang Mazi threw the knife directly to Jiang He.

An S-grade alloy battle knife is quite valuable.

Jiang He did not refuse, saying, "Thank you for the knife, Fifth Brother. I will definitely use this knife to kill more ferocious beasts and evil martial artists in the future, and I will never forget your kindness in giving me this knife."

"okay."

"It's just a broken S-grade alloy battle sword, nothing special."

Beside him, Zhang San took out a delicate little box.

He opened the box, inside was a section of "tree root" about the length of a finger and shaped like a carrot. The "tree root" had a mixture of dark and red light and emitted a strong medicinal fragrance.

"It really is a Black Fire Spiritual Root! Third Brother, you managed to get your hands on this treasure?"

Li Si and Wang Mazi both looked astonished.

Zhang San said smugly, "It's just a Black Fire Spiritual Root, not a Black Fire Spiritual Fruit. Why are you all making such a fuss?"

He handed the wooden box to Jiang He, turned around, put his hands behind his back, and said, "The Black Fire Spirit Fruit is a special kind of plant spirit. The price of one Black Fire Spirit Fruit is about one billion... However, the Black Fire Spirit Fruit is useless to you, and Third Brother can't afford it either."

"This item is the Black Fire Spirit Root, the root and stem of the Black Fire Spirit Fruit."

"Its effects are naturally much weaker than the Black Fire Spirit Fruit... but for pure body-refining martial artists, it is a treasure."

"Because it can improve physical fitness, strengthen muscles and bones, and unlock human potential, it can increase strength by tens of thousands of pounds after consumption... However, it also has a drawback."

Jiang He's eyes lit up as he looked at the "tree roots" in the wooden box.

Adding immense strength?

If I were to eat that, wouldn't I just take off?
The rich fragrance emanating from the "tree root" made Jiang He's mouth water involuntarily. He grabbed the "Black Fire Spirit Root," opened his mouth, and... snap!
He took a bite out of it, crunching as he chewed, and asked, "Third Brother, what are the weaknesses of the Black Fire Spirit Root?"

"The power contained within the Black Fire Spirit Root is too immense. The impact of its instantaneous energy release is extremely damaging to the physical body. If one's physical constitution is not at a certain level, one simply cannot withstand the energy of the Black Fire Spirit Root."

Zhang San said, "Based on experience, only those with physical strength exceeding ten thousand jin can refine the energy of the Black Fire Spiritual Root... If one's physical condition is too poor, there is even a possibility of exploding and dying."

He turned around, and his expression changed drastically.

"Fuck..."

"Why did you eat the Black Fire Spirit Root?"
