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

2024, April 12.

Wucheng.

Anning Mental Health Rehabilitation Center, Inpatient Department, VIP Ward 404.

"Ding!"

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

"Ding!"

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

After lunch, Jiang He took his medicine and said, "Third Brother, Fourth Brother, Fifth Brother, do you want to go out for some exercise?"

"No need."

Wang Mazi sat cross-legged on the sofa with a battle sword lying across his lap. He said, "When your cultivation reaches our level, ordinary training is useless. Instead, meditation and cultivation, comprehending the great Dao of heaven and earth, and understanding the Dao's essence are much better."

Li Si fiddled with his bottles and jars, saying, "Go by yourself, I don't have time..."

"Hey!"

"I really envy your spiritual practice!"

Jiang He sighed and said with a sigh, "You can just sit in meditation and have a sudden enlightenment, but we body cultivators have to insist on exercising every day to strengthen our bodies."

Went downstairs.

I ran two laps around the small square behind the inpatient department.

[Exercise after lunch].

"Ding!"

"Proper exercise can increase your strength by 10kg."

After the exercise, Jiang He began practicing the basic martial arts fist techniques and basic martial arts sword techniques. In fact, with his current cultivation level, practicing these basic things was no longer of any use.

However, Jiang He was already used to it.

He was used to the sense of fulfillment that came from taking medicine on time, eating meals, exercising, going for night runs, working out, and cultivating himself.

After practicing the basic martial arts fist techniques and basic martial arts knife techniques for a while, Jiang He began to study the "Nine Sword Techniques" passed down by Master Dongji.

According to Chen Wangting, the "Nine Sword Techniques" is an extremely powerful sword technique. Once mastered, it can kill even saints.

Jiang He used the power of his blood and qi to replace the sword energy, unleashing "Sword One". A blood-red sword light tore through the sky, shattering the white clouds.

pity.

He has never been able to get the hang of "Sword Two".

"The most important thing to master the second level of swordsmanship is to comprehend the sword intent!"

Holding a mid-grade holy sword, Jiang He couldn't help but think, "If Senior Xiahou can cultivate fist intent, it means that we body cultivators can also cultivate the true intent of martial arts!"

"The fact that I was able to resonate with the Inheritance Stele and receive a sword move as a legacy, and that I was valued by Master Dongji... shows that my swordsmanship talent is very strong."

"Starting today, I will dedicate two hours each day to practicing swordsmanship!"

For rivers, there is no difference between using a sword or a knife.

If one could truly cultivate sword intent, master the "Nine Sword Techniques," or even master the sword move that could tear apart ten thousand miles of starry sky with a single strike, wouldn't that be wonderful?
Jiang He immediately returned to his ward, turned on his computer, found the tutorial video for "Basic Martial Arts Swordplay," and started practicing the moves.

Upon seeing this, Wang Mazi chuckled and said, "Sixth Brother...why are you practicing this thing?"

Jiang He: "I want to familiarize myself with swordsmanship and see if I can cultivate sword intent."

Wang Mazi said, "Practicing basic martial arts and sword techniques can cultivate a certain sword intent. Third Brother's nickname is Fiery Sword. He is most skilled in sword intent and the essence of fire. Instead of wasting your time, you should go and ask Third Brother for guidance."

"Yes!"

Jiang He slapped his forehead: "How could I have forgotten about Third Brother!"

Zhang San's nickname "Blazing Sword" didn't come from nowhere.

He has integrated his "fire-based extraordinary abilities" with his own martial arts, and has also cultivated sword intent and the essence of fire. It is most appropriate to ask him for guidance on swordsmanship.

"Fifth Brother, where's Third Brother?"

"I don't know. It seems that the fourth brother was making poison, but he was missing one ingredient. They might have gone to the wilderness."

"I'll ask my third brother for advice when he gets back."

The rivers, however, are not in a hurry.

It wasn't dinnertime yet, so he went downstairs and arrived at dormitory 207.

Currently, only Zhuang Shuai lives in dormitory 207.

After Jiang He's recommendation, Zhuang Shuai has joined Wu Xingchen's "Star Warrior" team. However, he is still living in Anning Mental Hospital. In his words, "I've already spent the money, so I might as well stay here!"
"Brother Jiang!"

As soon as Zhuang Shuai saw Jiang He, he immediately came to greet him.

Jiang He asked in surprise, "You... changed your hairstyle?"

Zhuang Shuai touched his hair and laughed, "I didn't change my hairstyle, I just dyed the color back."

He used to be a blond kid.

It looks much better after I dyed it back.

Jiang He inquired about his situation in the "Star Warriors" team, and Zhuang Shuai smiled and said, "Brother Wu took good care of me, and the brothers in the team are also very good... I was very confused before, and even wanted to just coast along and wait to die, but now I have rekindled my hope for the future!"

"Not bad!"

Jiang He patted Zhuang Shuai on the shoulder and said earnestly, "You can't choose what happened in the past. Besides, you didn't know Fang Tailai was a member of the Heavenly Demon Sect. Ignorance is no excuse. You're still young, and you have a long road ahead of you. Focus on your cultivation!"

Zhuang Shuai's talent must be exceptional to have been accepted as a personal disciple by Fang Tailai.

Having experienced the ups and downs of life and undergone a transformation in mindset, as long as I cultivate myself diligently and have sufficient resources, my future will surely be bright.

Chatted for a few words.

Jiang He took out his phone, glanced at it, and said, "It's almost lunchtime, I'll head back now."

Zhuang Shuai saw Jiang He off at 207 and said, "By the way, Brother Jiang, Brother Wu often talks about you... He specifically told me before that if you come back, I should let him know. Do you think... it's convenient?"

Jiang He said, "Just let them know. We're free these days, so it would be good to get together."

Go back to dorms.

A short while later, Nurse Zhou Yue arrived pushing a food cart.

After delivering the meal, she secretly gave Jiang He two chicken legs, blushing as she said, "You body cultivators have big appetites, eat more... If you're still hungry, I'll go to the kitchen and get you some more." Wang Mazi chuckled and came closer, saying, "Zhou Yue, have you taken a liking to Lao Liu?"

Zhou Yue blushed even more, said "No way," and turned to run away from 404.

"Ding!"

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

"Ding!"

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

After finishing dinner and taking his medicine, Jiang He took out his gourd and drank a few sips of Tianfeng Water to moisten his throat.

"Ding!"

"Consuming the spiritual item increases strength by 50000 kg."

"Ding!"

"Consuming the spiritual item increases strength by 50000 kg."

"Ding……"

Feeling his own strength, blood, and physique growing stronger, Jiang He said, "Fifth Brother, shall we go out and train for a bit?"

"Row."

Wang Mazi said, "I'll accompany you in your exercise; consider it as helping with digestion."

It was already late December, and it was only a little before 6:30 pm, but it was already dark.

Jiang He and Wang Mazi ran two laps around the small square behind the inpatient building. They had just stopped when suddenly…

brush!brush!
Two figures flashed down from the corner of the wall and landed inside; they were Zhang San and Li Si.

After landing, the two stumbled and nearly fell to the ground.

In particular, their auras were extremely weak. Zhang San had a hideous sword wound on his chest, and blood was still hanging from the corner of his mouth.

"Third brother, fourth brother, what's wrong with you?"

Jiang He was greatly alarmed and quickly went to meet him.

puff!
Zhang San spat out a mouthful of black blood, then circulated his vital energy to slightly recover from his injuries before saying, "It's just a minor injury, nothing serious."

Li Si was also injured.

He suffered internal injuries, which appeared minor on the surface, but were actually more serious than Zhang San's.

Jiang He frowned and asked, "Third Brother, Fourth Brother, what's going on? Who's so bold as to attack you?"

Both of them were at the "Celestial Realm".

To injure them like this, one must be at least in the late stage of the Celestial Realm or even the peak of the Celestial Realm.

There are only so many Celestial Realm cultivators in the Great Xia Dynasty. They should know the relationship between Zhang San, Li Si, and themselves... Who would dare to harm Zhang San or Li Si?
"They are not from our Great Xia."

Zhang San said, "The energy on that person's body is completely different from the true qi and primordial qi we cultivate; it's more like the fighting qi of the West!"

"Ok?"

Jiang He exclaimed in surprise, "The Western Alliance is incredibly audacious! Not only did they send magical beasts to infiltrate Great Xia, they even sent their cultivators!"

After the initial surprise came anger.

Oh shit!

You dare to hurt my third and fourth brothers? Do you even know how to spell the word "death"?

"Third Brother, Fourth Brother, where were you attacked?"

"Near Ningdong Mining Area"

“I’m going to the vicinity of Ningdong Mining Area… Third Brother, Fourth Brother, you two go back to the ward to rest first. Fifth Brother, I’d like to trouble you to go to the Martial Arts Administration Bureau and find Director Zhou to tell him about the situation and ask him to report it as soon as possible and find a way to contact Minister Qin and the others.”

brush!
The river soared into the sky, its form turning sharply in the night sky as it sped towards the wilderness of the Ningdong mining area.

He concealed his breathing.

He flew using his own "magnetic field" power, pushing his mental energy to the limit. Even in the darkness of night, every blade of grass and every tree within a hundred miles could not escape his "perception".

He circled the Ningdong mining area but found nothing unusual.

"Could it be that the Western expert, after attacking Third Brother and Fourth Brother, fled to avoid alerting other experts?"

Jiang He frowned and slowly landed on the ground.

This must be the place where Zhang San, Li Si, and the others fought with that Western expert. There are many traces of battle left on the ground, and the fiery sword intent of Zhang San still lingers in the air.

No findings were found in the river...

A hundred meters behind him, a figure slowly emerged.

The figure seemed to blend into the darkness, appearing to have no physical form, merely a blurry black outline.

He appeared silently, holding a black longsword. In a flash, he was behind Jiang He, and with a whoosh, he slashed out with his sword, aiming for Jiang He's neck.

Zheng!
The black longsword struck Jiang He squarely on the neck, producing a metallic clang and sending sparks flying. Perhaps due to the immense force of the recoil, the black longsword was flung away, spun a dozen times in mid-air, and then crashed heavily into the ground.

The river turns back.

He grinned and said, "Kid, didn't expect that, did you?"

His teeth are white.

In the darkness of the night, a cold light seemed to flicker.

"what?"

The figure let out a cry of surprise and retreated rapidly.

Jiang He activated his "Ruyi Divine Footwork," and in a flash, grabbed the figure by the neck, coldly saying, "You think you can run away after cutting me with your sword? Do you think I'm a wooden puppet?"

The blurry human figure struggled, and gradually the figure became clear.

It turned out to be a blonde, blue-eyed foreign woman.

Jiang He lifted her feet off the ground, and she pounded on his hands with all her might, saying in broken Da Xia language, "Let me go, let me go now!"

"My teacher is the ninth member of the Allied Powers, a deity... If you dare to hurt me, my teacher will definitely kill you!" (End of Chapter)
