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

boom!
Jiang He's blood and qi erupted, and a fierce aura filled the entire room!

A cloud of blood rose around him, causing the tables and chairs in the entire room to shatter.

This was an effect he deliberately controlled.

Otherwise, the entire building would probably be blown up.

The four elders of Qingqiu's expressions changed drastically.

The thirteenth elder, whose head had just re-formed, had his pupils contract sharply. He opened his mouth, but his throat felt dry, and he said hoarsely, "Are you the body cultivator who killed the Great Black Heavenly Demon King and the Great Sun Saint?"

now.

There wasn't a trace of anger left in his heart!

All that remained was endless fear!
On the screens of Wanbaolou's branches across the country, the images of that "physical saint" slaying the Great Black Heavenly Demon King and the Great Sun Saint were being played for free. The images of that thousand-foot-tall body, swallowing the Great Black Heavenly Demon King whole, and punching the Great Sun Saint who was empowered by the array were already deeply imprinted in their minds!

The Sixth Elder cupped his hands and said, "I apologize, this matter was not well considered by Qingqiu Mountain... I will return to Qingqiu immediately and ask the Sect Master to make a decision."

"get out."

The river spoke indifferently.

The four elders fled Wanbaolou as if they were escaping.

After the four elders left, the woman in red beside Xu Rulai licked her alluring red lips and said, "Young people these days are really incredibly reckless... Jiang He, let me introduce myself. My surname is Yun, and my given name is Xian."

She stretched out her hand, her eyes shining as she looked at Jiang He, and added, "Humans!"

Jiang He didn't shake hands with the woman in red, but instead chuckled and said, "Aren't you a ghost? When did you become human?"

The woman in red said, "I was originally a human in my previous life. Now that I have become a saint, I have reconstituted my physical body, so naturally I am still a human."

"I see."

Jiang He then reached out and shook hands with the woman in red. Feeling the warmth emanating from Jiang He's palm, and sensing the intense heat and radiant "yang energy" within him, the woman recoiled as if electrocuted, a look of astonishment flashing in her eyes. She exclaimed, "I didn't expect that in such a short time, your cultivation would be even stronger than when you slew the Great Sun Saint!"

Jiang He did not deny it, but said, "Fairy Yun has a good eye."

Seeing his "Fairy Sister Yun" chatting so enthusiastically with Jiang He, Xu Rulai was filled with jealousy and said, "Old Jiang, Sister Yun, it's time for us to get going."

At this time.

Ji Wufa also walked in from outside.

Jiang He said, "Brother Ji, I'd like to trouble you to continue purchasing some resources for me. I'm going to Liangzhou first."

Ji Wufa asked, "After receiving the cultivation resources, where should I send them?"

Jiang He: "Didn't your Wanbaolou open a branch in the Eastern Region? Just send it to the Eastern Region... I'll contact you at the Wanbaolou branch in the Eastern Region then."

Say it.

Jiang He, Xu Rulai, and Fairy Yun left Wanbao Tower and took the teleportation array straight to Liangzhou.

On the road.

Fairy Yun said, "Jiang He, it is unwise of you to offend Qingqiu Mountain."

Jiang He didn't care at all, saying, "Since I started cultivating my body, what I've been pursuing is the freedom to do as I please... How can they take my little fox away just because they want her?"

talking.

He smiled faintly again: "Moreover, I have already achieved physical sainthood. Unless there are still top-level saints in Qingqiu Mountain, they are not qualified to make me wary."

"The battle a thousand years ago was extremely fierce. Qingqiu Mountain was forced to close its gates, so its experts must have been almost all killed or wounded... However, given Qingqiu Mountain's resources, it is not surprising that it has cultivated another Saint Realm expert in the past thousand years."

Fairy Yun said, “I know that Jiang He, your cultivation is now formidable, and you are invincible below the Great Sage level... But the greatest strength of Qingqiu Mountain lies in the foundation left by generations of powerful figures. Their clan must have methods to deal with Great Sage level experts.”

Jiang He still seemed completely unconcerned.

Fairy Yun continued, "However, Qingqiu Mountain doesn't usually use such methods lightly... But why was Qingqiu Mountain able to survive the destruction of its heritage despite the near-total loss of its experts in that battle a thousand years ago? Why didn't those alien races invade Qingqiu, but instead gave them the opportunity to seal off the mountain and recover? Have you ever considered this?"

"Oh?"

This touched Jiang He somewhat.

The major powers of the Kunlun Realm were either destroyed or brought under control a thousand years ago.

For example, the "Heavenly Blade Sect" in Qingzhou became a puppet of the alien race, and only in this way could it survive... The Demonic Sect in Yongzhou was also initially controlled by the alien race. It was only after the Demonic Sect Master rose up unexpectedly and killed the alien Saint Realm expert that the current situation was achieved.

Take, for example, the Artifact Sect.

Back then, the powerful alien races were determined to control the Weapon Sect, but the sect's protective array was too strong, and they failed to achieve their goal.

Unfortunately, Qingqiu Mountain was completely closed off.

Jiang He asked, "Could it be that there are even more powerful methods hidden within Qingqiu Mountain?"

Fairy Yun shook her head and said, "No... In ancient times, after the ancestor of Qingqiu disappeared, Qingqiu Mountain has actually been on a downward trend. If Qingqiu Mountain had stronger means, why would it submit to you today?"

Jiang He, still puzzled, pressed for an answer.

Fairy Yun then said, "Because... legend has it that the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox did not die back then, but was reincarnated using a secret method."

Jiang He chuckled and said, "This world doesn't have the Six Paths of Reincarnation, so how can one be reborn?"

Fairy Yun said, "After I died, I became a ghost, and later, through continuous cultivation, I awakened my memories of my past life. After becoming a saint, I reunited with my physical body. Isn't this a kind of reincarnation?"

Jiang He was taken aback.

Yes!

Isn't this also a kind of rebirth?
However, after a person dies, they may not necessarily become a ghost... because the more skilled the fighter, the more they will "cut the weeds and wipe out the roots" when killing enemies, even destroying your soul and consciousness. How can you become a ghost then?
Even if they become ghosts.

It's not necessarily possible to awaken memories of past lives.

More likely, they were devoured by powerful undead when they were weak, and then completely vanished without a trace.

Jiang He said, "From ancient times to the present, hundreds of thousands of years have passed, and that nine-tailed celestial fox has not returned. This shows that the rumors are not credible."

Fairy Yun shook her head and said, "This is not a rumor... This matter is not a secret, and many people know about it. Moreover, the reincarnation of the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox is not a reincarnation in the ordinary sense. It is said that she was reincarnated near the gate of the Celestial Realm, and a wisp of her true spirit entered the gate of the Celestial Realm. No one knows whether she will really come back."

Seeing that Jiang He still looked unconvinced, Fairy Yun added, "Legend has it that within the gates of the Immortal Realm, there is a complete cycle of the Six Paths of Reincarnation. After any living being dies, it will become a spirit and enter the Six Paths for judgment, and then be reincarnated."

soon.

The three of them then arrived in Liangzhou City.

They continued using the teleportation array, and after several twists and turns, they finally arrived at a small city called "White Horse City" on the edge of Liangzhou.

of course.

It is called a "small town" only in comparison to major cities in the state.

How could it be simple to build a "city" on such a scale in the Central Plains?
There is also a branch of Wanbaolou in this city. According to Xu Rulai's introduction, there are four great families in the city, each with several half-saints in charge. There is also a "White Horse Mountain" outside the city, and there is a sect in the mountain called "White Horse Hall". It is not weak and even subtly suppresses the four great families.

"The White Horse Hall is said to have 20 disciples... Its leader cultivated to a high-level semi-saint 300 years ago. He has not made a move for more than 200 years, and it is rumored that he has entered the saint realm," Xu Rulai said. "The Buddhist ruins are deep in White Horse Mountain... Let's take a detour and avoid the White Horse Hall, otherwise we might encounter some unnecessary disputes with the disciples of the White Horse Hall."

Jiang He said in astonishment, "This White Horse Mountain isn't owned by White Horse Hall... We're going to search for treasure, do you think they'll stop us?"

"This……"

Xu Rulai smiled wryly: "Because of the great war that once took place here, one-third of Liangzhou is barren land, so no powerful sects have settled here... Baima Hall is the strongest in Liangzhou, so the disciples in the sect act rather domineeringly."

"Sister Yun left for a while to reshape her physical body. During that time, I had some conflicts with the disciples of the White Horse Hall, and even one of their Supreme Elders was startled out."

Jiang He raised an eyebrow and asked, "What argument? Were you bullied?"

Damn it!

How dare someone bully our proud Xia! This is simply disrespectful!

Xu Rulai was slightly embarrassed. He put his hands together and said, "Amitabha... This humble monk did not suffer too much injustice. It was just that a group of disciples from the White Horse Hall discovered clues to the Buddhist ruins and wanted to compete with this humble monk for the treasure. During the process, they even attacked this humble monk. I had no choice but to send them to their deaths!"

Jiang He: "..."

He pondered for a moment and said, "Our great Xia is proud and arrogant; how can we allow ourselves to be bullied?"

"I, Jiang, have already achieved physical sainthood. When everyone in the world avoids me, how dare the mere White Horse Hall, a small sect that hasn't even reached the Saint Realm, make me take a detour... This is simply outrageous! Come, follow me down!"

brush!
The river had transformed into a blurry arc, plummeting towards the entrance of Baimatang Mountain.

Fairy Yun stared in disbelief, asking in astonishment, "Why...why did he suddenly become so angry? You only suggested that he take a detour...and the White Horse Hall didn't actually block the road, so why did he say it was going too far?"

Xu Rulai: "..."

I have no idea either!

boom!
As they were talking, the river had already fallen like a meteor in front of the White Horse Hall gate.

This is a square, and in the center of the square stands a stone statue.

The river flowed precisely into the center of the plaza, causing an immediate earthquake. The entire White Horse Mountain seemed to tremble violently. Many White Horse Hall disciples were alarmed and rushed out of the mountain gate, only to find dust billowing outside. The original plaza had vanished, replaced by a huge crater!

From the pit, a man dressed in black battle armor slowly rose into the air.

"Who dares to be so audacious as to destroy the gate of my White Horse Hall? They are simply courting death!"

Inside the mountain gate, someone shouted, and then a sword light flew out.

call out!
The sword light was as dazzling as the sun, and its powerful sword intent even carried a faint trace of holy might. As soon as the sword light appeared, many disciples of the White Horse Hall became excited. Someone said happily, "Gengjin Sword Qi... In our White Horse Hall, only the True Master Brother can cultivate Gengjin Sword Qi to this level!"

"The senior brother has made a move?"

"The eldest disciple is one of the top three geniuses on the Liangzhou Quasi-Saint Ranking. He had already reached the peak of the Fish-Dragon Realm thirty years ago. Today, judging from the saintly aura emanating from his sword aura, he is probably not far from the Half-Saint Realm!"

Let's look at the rivers again.

Facing that sword light, he neither dodged nor evaded, nor even raised his eyelids.

Zheng!
The sword light struck his brow, producing a metallic clang!
"what?"

All the White Horse Hall disciples who witnessed this scene were so frightened they almost jumped up. Among them, a middle-aged man in the late stage of the Fish-Dragon Realm exclaimed, "Impossible, this is impossible!"

"Senior Brother Ximen's sword strike almost reached the limit of the Fish-Dragon Realm. Even a half-saint would be injured if they didn't use their protective divine power... Why is this person completely unharmed, and instead shattered Senior Brother Ximen's Gengjin sword energy?"

"He...he didn't use any protective abilities!"

"Impossible! Without protective divine powers, how could he withstand Senior Brother Ximen's Gengjin sword energy? Unless it is that powerful figure who killed the Great Sun Saint and the Great Black Heavenly Demon King and achieved sainthood in his physical body who comes in person!"

A disciple of the White Horse Hall said the following.

Immediately...

The atmosphere suddenly became silent.

Jiang He touched the spot where he had been struck by the Gengjin sword energy and said calmly, "Very good... Not only did you White Horse Hall bully my brothers and prevent me from searching for treasures deep in White Horse Mountain, but now you dare to shoot me with sword energy?"

boom!
Within Jiang He's body, a violent surge of blood and qi circulated, a cloud of blood floated around him, and a fierce aura enveloped the entire White Horse Mountain. He coldly said, "Where is your hall master? Get out here!"

Behind him.

Xu Rulai and Fairy Yun descended together.

Seeing Jiang He's imposing presence, most of the disciples of the White Horse Hall had already guessed his identity!
That one...

The powerful figure who swallowed the Great Black Heavenly Demon King whole and destroyed the physical body of the Great Sun Saint who came from the ancestral star to become a saint!
They just stared at each other blankly. Even the "True Disciple Senior Brother Ximen" who had just made his move transformed into a sword light and flew out. He ran to Jiang He in three steps, clasped his hands and bowed, saying, "I didn't know it was you, Senior. I have offended you greatly. I hope you will not take offense."

Say it.

With two fingers of the right hand joined together, sword energy pulsed from the fingertips...

puff!
He severed his own left arm with a single sword stroke.

"This junior is willing to cut off his own arm as an apology!"

Jiang He looked disgusted and said, "Hurry up and put your severed arm away... I, Jiang, always believe in reasoning with people. I can't stand this bloody scene. Besides, I'm only 20 years old this year. You keep calling me 'senior,' which makes me sound old."

"Forehead……"

Senior Brother Ximen was taken aback.

20 years old?
How can this be?

Since this senior didn't blame him, that was a great thing. He quickly picked up his severed arm and quietly retreated back to the sect... He hadn't yet reached the "half-saint realm" and couldn't regenerate severed limbs, but with the White Horse Hall's resources, they still had such miraculous medicines.

And his arm was still warm.

There's no need to waste this miracle cure... just run faster, and find a doctor to pick you up later.

Senior Brother Ximen ran back.

Deep within the White Horse Hall.

The White Horse Hall Master, who had not made a move for over 200 years and had not shown his face for over a century, flew outside with four Supreme Elders and one type of Elder. They did not recognize Jiang He... But in the Kunlun Realm today, apart from that "physical saint" powerhouse, who has such abundant blood and qi?

All the high-ranking members and powerful figures of the White Horse Hall bowed in unison.

Jiang He waved to the distance.

Xu Rulai understood and quickly flew over.

Jiang He asked, "Do any of you recognize this brother of mine?"

Most of the high-ranking members of the White Horse Hall looked bewildered, while a few elders showed surprise. One of the white-haired Grand Elders couldn't help but shout angrily, "Little bald monk... it's you... pfft!"

"Amitabha!"

Xu Rulai chanted Buddhist prayers and said, "Old benefactor, please don't be angry. You are still recovering from your serious injuries; please take care of yourself." (End of Chapter)
