One pound of meat equals one attribute point.

Chapter 172: Bodhisattva cuts off his hair, the one who achieves first

laugh!
Su Heng circulated the strength in his hands and evaporated the little saliva that was stained on the monster's corpse.

As the demon skeleton came into contact with his body, relevant information appeared in front of Su Heng's eyes——

[Bodhisattva's hair cutting: creating special hair that can be used to change the external environment and repair internal injuries. ]

Su Heng pressed the demon corpse left by the Black Evil Bodhisattva against his chest.

As a cold touch spread outward along the skin of his chest, Su Heng's chest seemed to have black earthworms rising and crawling, and soon returned to calm. The demon body of the Black Evil Bodhisattva was successfully fused, and the progress was smooth. Su Heng hardly felt the remaining will of the Black Evil Bodhisattva.

If we only compare the strength.

The Black Evil Bodhisattva may be slightly stronger than the Crocodile Lord we encountered before.

Su Heng could not sense any remaining spirit in the monster's skeleton. This was probably because he had successfully integrated the dragon blood during this period of time, which increased his total mental strength.

Actually...

Ever since he realized his spiritual potential during the battle with Xie Linyuan.

Su Heng guessed that the increase in body size would bring about all-round improvement.

It's not just about getting bigger.

The inner spiritual strength is also growing.

The significant changes that occurred after the fusion of the two death-level demon skeletons undoubtedly proved that Su Heng’s previous guess was correct.

However, his current cultivation level is still quite far from that of a Heavenly Gui.

Want to develop this huge treasure.

It still takes time.

Su Heng is now in the fifth realm, refining the internal organs.

The body can accommodate five demon corpses at the same time.

In addition to the required "Dragon Skeleton Outfit" and "Yin Body Tai Sui", the remaining three demon skeletons chose "Water Ghost Poison Sac", "Wheel of Life and Death", and "Mountain Armor".

After being strengthened by Su Heng, the water ghost poison sac can exert the effect of "water gift" through the weak water vapor in the air, increase the efficiency of obtaining attribute points, and at the same time bring about a certain degree of improvement in physical fitness.

The "Wheel of Life and Death" and "Mountain-piercing Iron Armor" were obtained from the White Deer Demon King and the Iron Dragon Demon King respectively.

The former increases self-healing ability, while the latter increases defense.

For Su Heng now.

The effect of these "ferocious" level demon corpses is not great, and it would be a stretch to say that they are just icing on the cake.

Su Heng's strength comes from his own physical body, and the demon skeleton can only play a supporting role.

Even the "Dragon Skeleton Suit" is no exception to this.

Su Heng removed the "Mountain-piercing Iron Armor" and integrated it with the "Bodhisattva's Broken Hair".

Su Heng stretched out his five fingers, and with the sound of "swish", a large amount of black hair pierced the air and spread outward, weaving into spider-web-like veins in the surrounding environment, distorting the air and leaving shadows.

His gaze lingered briefly on the black hair.

Then he shook his head.

Swish!
Su Heng stretched out his hand and waved.

The black hair created by "Bodhisattva's Broken Hair" was all recovered.

For Su Heng, whose physical fitness has been greatly enhanced by integrating dragon blood.

Whether these hairs were used in battle or to heal his own injuries, the effect was not very great. On the contrary, they had an unexpected effect in another aspect.

A rustling sound of friction came from Su Heng's body.

A large amount of black hair grew outward along his skin, interweaving and merging together, forming a close-fitting black robe in the blink of an eye.

"good……"

Su Heng looked down and a satisfied smile immediately appeared on his face.

With the ability of "Bodhisattva's Hair Cutting", you don't need to bring a lot of spare clothes when you go out. If the clothes on your body are damaged during the battle, they can be repaired at any time, which is a great help.

Su Heng stretched out his hand to adjust his collar, then let his arms hang down and looked to the other side calmly.

Among the lush mangroves.

It flashed past in a black light, like a swallow flying over the lake.

It rose and fell, crossing a distance of several thousand meters, bringing with it a gust of whistling wind, and landed in front of Su Heng in the blink of an eye.

This person is of normal height.

He was dressed in a white robe, had a handsome appearance and an elegant temperament.

When he got closer, Su Heng could even smell a faint scent of ink from him.

I don’t know if it was because of some special aromatherapy or simply because he had been in contact with books and ink for a long time.

This person is Li Lingxiu, the commander of the Demon-Suppressing Army.

Although Su Heng and Li Lingxiu had exchanged letters, this was the first time they actually met.

Su Heng's eyes were calm, and he had no special thoughts in his mind.

Li Lingxiu is the commander of the Demon Suppression Army, and in theory, he is Su Heng's immediate superior. But this world is based on force after all, and if your fists are not strong enough, it's useless to say anything. The reason why Su Heng agreed to meet with Li Lingxiu was because he wanted to understand the current situation through him.

not to mention……

The Black Evil Bodhisattva was originally coming for Li Lingxiu, but was discovered and dealt with by Su Heng in advance.

From this point of view, Li Lingxiu still owes Su Heng a favor.

Compared to Su Heng's calm mentality.

Li Lingxiu, who was obviously in a high position, seemed a little excited.

His first impression of Su Heng came from Zhao Meiying's description and the two fundamental diagrams of the Dragon Tyrant Secret Technique.

Later, when he was in Jiangbeizhou, Li Lingxiu learned about some of the things that happened in Baihua County through various channels, and his admiration grew even more.

And now that he had temporarily escaped from the battlefield in Jiangbeizhou, he finally got to see her.

It really lives up to its reputation.

As a strong man in the Tiangui Realm, Li Lingxiu could feel the surging blood in Su Heng's body, as well as the powerful force as vast as the ocean.

This was a pure strong man who had tempered his physical strength and mental will to the extreme. He just stood there, looking at him calmly.

This gave Li Lingxiu a feeling of looking up at a mountain, with deep abysses and towering peaks, which were difficult to grasp.

"I'm Li Lingxiu, a martial artist. Nice to meet you, senior." Li Lingxiu smiled, bowed to Su Heng, and spoke very respectfully.

"Senior?" Su Heng looked surprised.

"I have benefited a lot from the Dragon Tyrant Secret Technique that my senior taught me." Li Lingxiu explained seriously, "The path of martial arts does not distinguish between the young and the old, and those who are more accomplished come first."

"That's quite true."

Su Heng laughed when he heard this and said, "But you don't have to be too polite. Just call me by my name."

To be able to reach the Tiangui realm, normally Li Lingxiu should be around a hundred years old.

Being addressed as a senior by a centenarian.

Ok……

It always feels weird.

"Then how about calling me Brother Su?" Li Lingxiu hesitated for a moment and asked again.

"can."

"Okay then..." Li Lingxiu was about to speak.

Then he noticed the bodies of the two monks Huitong and Huiming at Su Heng's feet, and the familiar smell of incense in the air. Li Lingxiu immediately guessed what might have happened, and his face changed slightly, "These two monks are..."

"Just now I came here first and was ambushed."

Su Heng recounted to Li Lingxiu exactly what had happened before, including some information about the Black Evil Bodhisattva.

When Li Lingxiu heard this, the smile on her face disappeared immediately.

His brows were deeply furrowed, and his face was so gloomy that it seemed like water could drip out of it.

"Damn it!" Li Lingxiu paced back and forth on the ground, and then punched an ancient tree next to him with a "bang".

The ancient tree that two people hugged made a crisp "crack" sound, and a huge crack ran through the tree.

With a rumbling sound of friction, the ancient tree collapsed.

The ground was shaking.

"My whereabouts have been leaked." Li Lingxiu said seriously.

"It's obvious." Su Heng agreed casually, "The key question is who did it."

Li Lingxiu lowered his head and thought for a while, scratched his head, then smiled bitterly and said, "Too many, General Zhenbei, some secret techniques of Skull Plain, and even people from other big families are possible. The current situation is too chaotic, no one dares to act rashly."

"I'm afraid that if I move, I'll become the target of everyone's criticism."

Speaking of this, Li Lingxiu broke out in a cold sweat again.

If he was the first to arrive and was severely injured by the ambush of the Black Evil Bodhisattva, then the family behind him would definitely not be able to sit idly by. By then, the entire Jiangzhou Li family might be in crisis and would be very passive in the next situation.

Li Lingxiu told Su Heng some of the information she had learned, and the fog that had originally shrouded them in front of them gradually dissipated.

"I see……"

Su Heng nodded slightly, and said in sudden realization, "The breach of the Cambrian Pass not only involves the struggle between the internal and external forces, but also the beginning of cracks within the dynasty."

"When Taizu conquered the country a thousand years ago, he relied on the help of these top immortal sects and families. Although it was a prosperous time, the crisis had actually been buried under the flowers and brocade."

"Like the Immortal Sect, and even my family. Although they are nominally under the governance of the Great Zhou Dynasty, in reality they are like warlords with their own troops. If the royal family is strong, then everything will be fine."

Li Lingxiu smiled bitterly, "But once the power of the royal family weakens, it will be troublesome..."

"Even if we just want to live in peace in a corner, some members of the royal family will not be reassured. Once suspicion arises, it will be difficult to deal with the following matters."

"So you all choose to sit back and allow the barbarians outside the Great Wall to break into our country?" Su Heng was speechless.

"That's not true..."

Li Lingxiu smiled bitterly. "Whether it is the imperial court or the local forces, they actually have their own bottom line. As long as this bottom line is touched, they will always respond. However... some of these temptations will cost the lives of countless ordinary people."

He chose to leave his family, in addition to his desire for freedom.

Another important reason is that he can't stand the bad atmosphere in his family.

"Let's not talk about that..." Li Lingxiu said seriously, "The Black Evil Bodhisattva is a master of the Hundred Buddha Temple. I have heard of this person. Since the practice of the way of 'Imperial Control' is inseparable from the Buddha's 'Binding', through this, perhaps we can find the base of the Hundred Buddha Temple in the dynasty."

"Tied up?" Su Heng was surprised, "What is that?"

"You can think of it as a kind of contract." Li Lingxiu said, "A demon that is 'bound' is equivalent to being subdued by the Buddha. Although it can enjoy offerings, absorb the faith of mortals, and speed up its practice, it cannot leave the temple at will."

"Some of the secret cultivation methods of Skull Plain are quite weird."

As he spoke, Li Lingxiu squatted down lightly.

The Black Evil Bodhisattva was killed and eaten by Su Heng, but some remains of the skinny nun that the Black Evil Bodhisattva had previously possessed were still left on the ground.

Li Lingxiu frowned, stretched out her hand to get it stained with blood, and then wiped it lightly with two fingers.

He recited a formula silently, then put his fingers together to form a sword and thrust forward.

"go with!"

A beam of golden light burst out.

In the blink of an eye, it disappeared into the sky and flew towards a certain direction.

"Is this the location of the Hundred Buddha Temple within the imperial territory?" Su Heng watched the golden light disappear from his sight.

"It should be not bad." Li Lingxiu nodded.

He used this secret method based on luck, but he didn't expect it to be successful this time.

"I wonder if Brother Su is willing to go with me?" Li Lingxiu took the initiative to invite. "Now all major forces and the imperial court have offered rewards for Skull Plain. If we can uproot a hidden base of the Hundred Buddha Temple, we will definitely be able to obtain a large amount of resources."

"Moreover, there are many hidden Buddhist scriptures in the stronghold itself, which is also a considerable fortune."

"Okay." Su Heng nodded and agreed without thinking too much.

Anyway, there are still a few days until the "Clouds in the Sky" secret realm opens. I can take this opportunity to plunder a batch of resources and understand the current situation.

Moreover, since the Baifo Temple had already taken the initiative to attack him, there was no point in just taking the beating without fighting back.
