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

The Golden Crow Ancestor Cannot Return?
Jiang He shook his head and said regretfully, "What a pity. I originally wanted to experience the methods of [Invincible]... It seems that now I can only see it by going to the [Gate of Immortal Realm]."

Seeing Jiang He like this, the old ox said again, "Jiang He, I know that you have been undefeated in every battle since you started practicing body tempering. You have an invincible heart!"

"But none of the [Invincible] should be underestimated."

"Such powerful figures all stand proudly at the pinnacle of the heavens, especially the Golden Crow Ancestor, who is among the strongest... He has cultivated outside the Gate of the Immortal Realm for more than three eras, and has even refined the Immortal Laws. I'm afraid that an ancestor-level being would not last more than three moves against him!"

"Brother Niu, rest assured, I, Jiang, have never underestimated any opponent."

Jiang He said, "I'm just a body cultivator. To put it bluntly... I'm just stronger than most people and my body is a little more resilient. I don't understand any great laws, and I don't know any supernatural powers, holy arts, or imperial arts... let alone immortal arts!"

"Therefore, I will go all out in every battle to avoid being caught off guard and losing."

When the topic of "body cultivation" came up, the old ox seemed to be touched.

He sighed deeply and lamented, "The path of body refinement is indeed difficult... I once studied this path in depth, but even after a million years of cultivation, it is still difficult to cultivate it to the [Ultimate] level."

The physique of demons is naturally far superior to that of humans.

Many powerful demons, even without deliberately "refining their bodies," still possess formidable physical strength... especially those with strong first-bloodline demons, whose physiques are even more terrifying!
Many powerful ancient demons also practiced "body refinement".

Although very few powerful individuals can cultivate their physical body to the level of an "Extreme Dao" Emperor while also practicing "body refinement," there are quite a few who achieve "physical sainthood."

After spending a day in the Kunlun Mountains and exchanging body-refining tips with the old ox, Jiang He left the Kunlun Mountains and returned to Wucheng.

The entire city of Wu was decorated with lanterns and colorful streamers, creating a festive atmosphere.

The little demon, having inherited the memories of the nine-tailed celestial fox, knew quite a bit about the "ancestral star." Upon seeing this, she exclaimed, "Is this... almost New Year's? I didn't expect that the humans on the ancestral star still carry on this custom!"

"It's almost Chinese New Year."

Jiang He laughed and said, "I'm rushing to catch the train. Today should be New Year's Eve. We can eat dumplings tonight and watch fireworks."

He went home.

I haven't been home for two years, and the house is covered in a layer of dust.

Zhu Lingzhi waved her hand, blowing away all the dust.

Then, with another wave of his hand, a layer of water mist flashed, cleaning the room once again.

The room, which was originally covered in dust, instantly became incredibly bright, and even the floor tiles shone as if they had been coated with wax.

Jiang He was incredibly envious of this method and secretly longed for it.

In fact, long after he achieved physical sainthood, the foundation damaged by the "evil poison" had been fully restored. He had tried to cultivate, but unfortunately, since he had already mastered the art of body refinement, the true qi he cultivated had not yet entered his dantian and sea of ​​qi before it turned into nutrients to nourish his physical body.

As Jiang He pondered, he thought of the Heavenly Demon Sect and the Heavenly Saint Sect again...

I thought of the Heavenly Demon Clan!

Hey!
"Damn you, you old demon!"

"Don't let me run into you again... If I do, I'll beat you to a pulp!"

He cursed inwardly as he led Zhu Lingzhi and the little demon away from the room...

To be honest, since he transmigrated, he has either lived in the "Anning Mental Hospital" or wandered around... He seems to have only slept at home for two nights in his memory, so he doesn't feel any attachment to it.

On the contrary, they have a special feeling for "Anning Mental Hospital".

They treated the "Anning Mental Hospital" as their home.

Out of the community.

Jianghe flagged down a taxi.

The moment his buttocks touched the passenger seat, the taxi driver recognized Jiang He and exclaimed, "Holy crap... the number one body refiner in the Great Xia Dynasty, Lord Jiang He?"

"you know me?"

Jiang He was surprised.

The taxi driver pointed outside and said, "I know you... of course I know you. Lord Jianghe, you are the pride of Wucheng. In Wucheng, from 80-year-old seniors to 3-year-old children, who doesn't know you?"

"Look."

"Your posters are plastered all over the streets and alleys of Wucheng."

“Many young people regard you as an idol… My son is only in the first year of junior high school this year, and he has even collected many of your photos. Last week, he and his friends visited your former residence at the Anning Mental Health Rehabilitation Center.”

Therefore...

former residence?

Jiang He's lips twitched.

Needless to say.

This must be a money-making scheme devised by Dean An.

Jiang He smiled and corrected him, "I am Jiang He, but I am not the number one body refiner in the Great Xia Dynasty... To be precise, I should be the number one body refiner in all the worlds."

He looked the driver up and down, then suddenly frowned and said, "Sir... why do you look so familiar?"

The taxi driver chuckled and said, "I didn't expect you to remember me, Lord Jiang."

"Actually, I have a special connection with Lord Jiang; we've met twice."

"Oh?"

Jiang He asked, "Have we met twice?"

"Yes!"

The driver said, "I remember one night when I was driving, I happened to run into you, Lord Jiang, as we passed Anning Mental Hospital. You were carrying a knife and said you were going to the wilderness area..."

“When I refused to pull you away, you put a knife to my neck and tried to reason with me.”

Jiang He did not remember doing such a thing.

but……

He nodded and said, "That's right, I, Jiang He, like to persuade people with reason. That is indeed my style of doing things... And what about the second meeting?"

The driver was a little embarrassed and said, "Our second meeting wasn't very pleasant... I had just dropped off a passenger and was passing the intersection in front of the [Benlei Martial Arts School] when you, Lord Jiang, suddenly flew over from the road and hid under my car wheel."

Hey!
Say this.

Jiang He suddenly remembered, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Damn it... it was you! I remember you drove over me and almost killed me!"

The driver chuckled a few times before asking, "By the way, Lord Jiang, where are you headed?"

"Let's go to the mall."

Jiang He said, "I'm going to buy some New Year's goods."

the back seat of the car.

Zhu Lingzhi and Xiao Yao exchanged a glance, each suppressing the smirk that were about to appear on their lips.

did not expect……

Young master, you have such a life experience.

Soon, we arrived at the mall entrance.

Jiang He was about to pay the fare... but when he reached into his pocket, he realized he didn't have any money with him.

In fact, he hadn't carried money for a long time. Even during his time in the Kunlun Realm, he only carried "spirit stones".

And the phone...

It's unknown which major battle it was destroyed in.

He fumbled around inside his storage ring...

There was no gold, spirit stones, or anything like that. Even the holy blood, holy liquid, and holy source were all used up, leaving only a large number of magic weapons, elixirs, and rare treasures... In the end, Jiang He found a bright red fruit.

This was the "essence of the five elements" that the Flame Fairy in the "Five Elements Small World" gave him when he last returned to Wucheng.

Don't let this seemingly ordinary fruit fool you; it's a fire-attribute "essence," with a value comparable to "Black Water Glazed Essence." Ordinary people who consume it will immediately awaken fire-attribute extraordinary abilities, and those who become vassals of fire-attribute extraordinary awakeners will see their strength greatly enhanced in a short period of time!
After consuming this fruit, one's cultivation path will become incredibly smooth, allowing them to cultivate to the Fish-Dragon Realm without any bottlenecks.

“Lord Jiang, it is an honor for me to ride in my car. How could I possibly accept your fare?”

The taxi driver absolutely refused.

Jiang He said, "This fruit isn't for you. Didn't you say you have a son in junior high? This is for him... Remember, make sure he takes it as soon as possible."

Jiang He handed the fruit to the taxi driver and then got out of the car with Zhu Lingzhi and Xiao Yao.

The mall was quieter than I had imagined on Lunar New Year's Eve.

Most families have already prepared for the New Year and are now reuniting at home... Even many of the staff in the shopping mall have been given a holiday!
Fortunately, there are many Hui people in Wucheng, and they don't celebrate the Lunar New Year. So most shopping malls, restaurants, bars and other entertainment venues are open as usual during the Lunar New Year!
Moreover, this is the busiest time of day for business.

As soon as Jiang He entered the mall, he was recognized again.

Shoppers and mall staff crowded around Jiang He, making it impossible to move. Some wanted autographs, some wanted photos, and even if they couldn't get to the front, they were happy to take a video from a distance.

"what happened?"

Outside the shopping mall.

A young man in training clothes strode in. Seeing that there was a huge crowd in front of him, a look of displeasure flashed across his face.

He was accompanied by more than a dozen men and women.

These men and women were all wearing the same training uniform, with the character "黎" embroidered on the chest of the uniform.

These are disciples of the "Li Family" martial arts school.

The young man being surrounded was the young master of the "Li Family" martial arts school.

His father, Li Jinxiong, was a prominent figure in Wucheng. He reached the Grandmaster level two and a half years ago when the "Wucheng Beast Tide" broke out. He was nearly 60 years old when he became a Grandmaster.

After becoming a Grandmaster, he accumulated knowledge and skills and then unleashed his full potential, becoming a Great Grandmaster in just two and a half years!

of course.

This is related to the increasing number of cultivation resources available in the Great Xia Dynasty.

Especially in the past year, the martial artists of Great Xia have made rapid progress. Grandmasters, great grandmasters, and even martial arts celestial beings and martial arts celestial phenomena realms have sprung up like mushrooms after rain.

Many "Fish-Dragon Realm" beings have been born there.

However, most of these powerful individuals went to "Tianmen Pass" and "Kunlun Realm"... Take Wu City for example, nowadays, apart from Zhou Tong, the Celestial Being of the "Martial Arts Administration Bureau", there are only four Grandmasters in Wu City.

The other three grandmasters are in their prime and have only recently been promoted, so they probably won't stay in Wucheng for long... Naturally, the Li Family Martial Arts School has become the largest martial arts school in Wucheng!

Do not!
It should be said to be the largest martial arts school in the entire Western Xia Dynasty!

Even in the base city, many people sent their children to the "Li Family Martial Arts School" in Wucheng to train. It is said that ordinary first- and second-grade martial artists are only "martial arts school apprentices" in the "Li Family Martial Arts School". Only those who reach the third-grade level can become formal disciples!
In addition to Grandmaster Li Jinxiong, the martial arts school also has an eighth-rank Grandmaster and three seventh-rank Grandmasters in charge.

"Young Master" Li Ming is at the sixth rank.

Lai Chun-hung had a son late in life and doted on Leon Lai.

Leon Lai lived up to expectations, reaching the sixth rank at the young age of 20. Unlike the arrogant and domineering "second-generation" characters in novels and movies, Leon Lai was upright and hated evil.

He brought his junior brothers and sisters to buy New Year's goods today, intending to give them as a benefit to the disciples of the martial arts school, but he never expected to see such a scene.

The area in front was completely surrounded by a crowd, and the noise from customers and staff could almost lift the roof off. The elevator entrance was blocked, so Li Ming could only lead his disciples up the stairs to the second floor of the mall.

"It must be a celebrity."

A martial arts student remarked, "These celebrities are so glamorous; they're treated like stars wherever they go!"

As he walked towards the second floor, he sneered, "What kind of bullshit celebrity?"

What contributions have they made to the country?

What contributions have they made to society?

"The prosperity of the Great Xia Dynasty was achieved through the blood and flesh of countless martial arts masters..."

After climbing the stairs, the view opened up considerably. He looked down and said, "I'd like to see which celebrity is putting on such a big show... Holy crap, Jiang He, Jiang He!!!"

Halfway through his sentence, Li Ming suddenly roared hysterically, his voice filled with heart-wrenching pain: "Jiang He... is the strongest body refiner in our Great Xia, the pride of Wu City. He single-handedly saved Kunlun and our Lord Jiang He!"

"Jiang He!"

"Jiang He!"

Dawn was no longer as calm and composed as before. He leaned on the stair railing, screaming at the top of his lungs, his face turning red!

Behind him.

The group of disciples from the Li Family Martial Arts School also roared in response!
For them, rivers are their idols!

The shout from this group of martial artists was so loud that it immediately drowned out the voices of the customers and staff below!

Even Jiang He was taken aback and looked up slightly.

Seeing that a small space had opened up in front of Jiang He, Li Ming immediately leaped down and used his movement technique to land.

He reached out to shake hands with Jiang He, but fearing Jiang He would refuse, he quickly withdrew his hand. He was so nervous that he couldn't speak. He said, "Mr. Jiang, hello... My name is Li Ming, and I am your idol."

Jiang He: "Huh?"

A burst of laughter erupted from the crowd.

Li Ming blushed and stammered, "No...no, no...I misspoke, you are my idol!"

Jiang He smiled.

I never expected that I would actually encounter this kind of "way of speaking" that I only see in comedies and sketches in real life.

He glanced at Li Ming, then at the martial arts school disciples with him, and asked, "Are you from a martial arts school? The Li Family Martial Arts School? Is it newly opened?"

Back when Zhang San, Li Si, and Wang Mazi had just left the hospital and Wei Jian hadn't been hospitalized yet, Jiang He, in order to gain "combat experience," practically knocked the sides of every "martial arts disciple" in Wucheng with a club.

Therefore, he knew better than anyone how many martial arts schools there were in Wucheng.

Li Ming said, “My family’s martial arts school has only been open for less than two years… Speaking of which, my father and Mr. Jiang are acquaintances.”

"Oh?"

Jiang He asked, "Who is your father?"

Li Ming: "My father's name is Li Jinxiong. He often told us... that he and one of his friends had sparred with Mr. Jiang, and... they were evenly matched!" (End of Chapter)
