One pound of meat equals one attribute point.

Chapter 74: The trend is irresistible (sixth update, monthly ticket requested)

Wow!
It was a rainy night.

The heavy raindrops fell on the river surface, creating ripples, and fell on the leaves in the yard, making rustling sounds.

Flakes of crystal rain fell from the green tiles in front of Su Heng, forming a pearl curtain.

Su Heng sat cross-legged, facing the wide Guan River outside.

From time to time, lightning flashed and silver snakes appeared. In the distance, the ancient and vast scenery of Canglong Mountain could be vaguely seen.

There was a jar next to Su Heng's left hand. The lid of the jar had been opened, and large pieces of demon flesh and blood inside were emitting a substantial red mist in the room, making a hissing sound.

And accompanied by blood-red fat, it dripped from the irregular pieces of meat.

Su Heng didn't mind the greasiness and swallowed it in one gulp.

He now weighs over 800 kilograms, is about 2.3 meters tall, and has a very muscular body.

Below the strong neck are well-developed trapezius muscles, and below that are broad and strong shoulders. Two arms as thick as pillars and with muscular torsos hang naturally.

He was now sitting cross-legged on a cushion on the observation deck outside.

The broad and well-developed latissimus dorsi muscles blocked the open door behind tightly.

The muscles on his body have a hard luster like dense metal, and are bulging in lumps, and his face is as majestic and solemn as that of an ancient king.

Just a quick glance.

It gives people a feeling of indestructibility, as if it is a god walking in the world.

Ordinary warriors can only change their innate bones through the extremely risky method of fusing with demon corpses.

But Su Heng didn't need it.

His size grew infinitely and tended toward perfection.

As long as you are alive and have sufficient food supply, it doesn't matter even if you don't have any practice methods.

Every day, Su Heng could clearly feel that he was slowly becoming stronger and moving towards an inhuman and terrifying realm.

The difference...

It's just a matter of fast or slow.

Eat the last piece of meat in the jar and wipe the grease from the corners of your mouth.

Su Heng's eyes narrowed slightly, and the attribute panel appeared before his eyes.

There are only three levels in total to perfect the Taotie method.

The first layer is the secondary stomach, the second layer is the stomach as big as a cow, which expands the secondary stomach space. The talent brought by the third layer is the most important.

This level of talent is called digestion and nourishment.

It allows Su Heng to extract more nutrients from the same food.

Su Heng made a rough calculation.

Before the Taotie Technique was perfected, he gained around thirty attribute points a day.

After the Taotie Technique was perfected, Su Heng's speed in acquiring attribute points was increased to nearly forty.

"It's about a 30% increase, which is not much different from the increase brought by the water ghost venom sac."

However, there are differences between the two.

Su Heng felt it carefully, and then whispered to himself, "The increase brought by the water ghost poison sac is the increase in digestion rate, and there is also the limitation that it can only be effective in a water environment. But the increase brought by the Taotie method is a direct increase in digestion capacity, and there is no restriction."

"Comparing the two, it is clear that the effect of the Taotie method is much better."

After the Taotie Technique is upgraded to perfection, it can continue to be upgraded, but the attribute points consumed will increase significantly.

Considering that the selection for deputy governor will be held in five days.

Although Su Heng is very confident in his own strength, he is not afraid of villains.

But he still had to be fully prepared, so he planned to choose one of the two martial arts, "Ice Phantom" and "Miniature Mist".

Five days should be enough time to practice to perfection.

Further strengthen one's own strength and promote the growth of abnormal tissue.

Moreover, the strengths complement each other, and the strength can be significantly improved.

Thinking of this...

Su Heng withdrew his gaze from the river in the distance.

He turned around, lowered his head, and returned to his house.

The house, which was once a normal place for living, gradually seemed a little cramped for Su Heng's huge body.

Especially when passing by the door beam.

Su Heng had to be careful to lower his head, otherwise he would have directly knocked the house down.

On a rainy day like this, making any noise would definitely cause a lot of trouble and ruin your good mood.

in the room.

The oil lamps on the wall burned silently.

He bent down and picked up the two books containing the secret manuals of true skills from the bookshelf.

Su Heng glanced at each of them and soon came up with an idea. "The Qingmu Changsheng Gong at the Bone Strength stage combined with the Chiyang Black Evil Strength has a pretty good killing power. But when I was fighting, my means of trapping the enemy were still too simple."

"The Ice Phantom's power has a layer of freezing hysteresis effect, which should be able to make up for this shortcoming a little bit."

Su Heng thought for a moment.

Put the secret book containing "Miniature Storm Power" back down.

He held in his hand another booklet containing "Ice Phantom" as a direction for his hard training for the next five days.

Click!

First there was a flash of silver light, and then a blazing thunder fell from the sky.

Then there was a rumble of thunder, echoing over the mountains and startling a large number of birds.

Outside the open door, a dark shadow suddenly appeared in the courtyard, and heavy rain dripped from both sides of him.

Su Heng stopped what he was doing and narrowed his eyes slightly.

Then put the booklet down again.

Take a step forward and arrive at the courtyard outside the door.

"Who are you?" Su Heng asked in a gentle tone. He didn't want to let the sudden visit of a stranger ruin his good mood.

The man slowly raised his head, and under the dark hood was a face without any facial features.

"It doesn't matter who I am."

The faceless man has no mouth, but a thick and hoarse voice comes from him.

It's like some kind of ventriloquism, but there's a difference.

"The important thing is that you chose the wrong path." The faceless man said coldly.

"Wrong road?" Su Heng tilted his head, "You mean..."

"It's ridiculous that Li Daoxuan would pin his hopes on a junior like you." The faceless man didn't play tricks and spoke directly, "What Li Daoxuan can give you, we can also give you. Give up the election for the Demon Suppression Tower, otherwise, you will bear the consequences yourself."

"Seven major families, oh no, sorry, it should be six major families now." Su Heng said gently, "Which family are you from?"

"Answer my question." said the faceless man coldly.

Su Heng was silent, looking up at the sky. Lead-gray clouds were rolling, and drops of rain were rapidly expanding in his field of vision.

"Why……"

He sighed and spoke in confusion. "Why?" The faceless man was confused by this sudden question.

The gentle expression on Su Heng's face gradually disappeared, and his eyes became cold, emitting a faint bloody light in the dark rainy night.

His huge body seemed to be expanding as well.

An invisible breath, like smoke, spread outward and enveloped the surroundings.

"Life is such a miracle, why don't you know how to cherish it? You have to jump in front of me one by one to die." Su Heng sighed, "Why do you have to force me to kill all of you?"

"Kill them all!?"

The faceless man sneered, "Arrogant, do you know who you are facing?"

"I don't need to know the origin of a corpse." Su Heng's patience was gradually exhausted. "I just need to know that anyone who tries to stop me will be killed without mercy!"

hiss--

Before he finished speaking, he attacked forward brazenly.

The faceless man's face twitched and twisted, as if he was horrified.

His entire body quickly faded and merged into the shadows, but he was still a step too slow and was grabbed by Su Heng's head.

boom!
Press down hard.

Brain matter, blood, mixed with large pieces of mud splattered everywhere.

There were spots of blood on Su Heng's face and body. He stuck out his tongue, licked a little brain matter from the edge of his lips into his mouth, and took two sips.

"It tastes terrible."

Su Heng turned around and left, returning to the house.

In the courtyard behind him, a white mist suddenly appeared in the huge pit.

The faceless man's body was quickly decomposed and gradually disappeared. Only a piece of white gelatinous meat and a hooded gown stained with dark red blood remained in the pit.

……

……

……

Rumble!
The sound of thunder came from the distant mountains, echoing endlessly.

Inside the Hong family's earthen fortress, in a tower with red candles lit.

A middle-aged man wearing a pure white robe and with a strong physique, like a scholar, opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood foam.

A stream of black air spread along his neck towards his face.

A look of pain appeared on the man's face.

He quickly reached out and pressed several major acupoints around his neck, and then took out a few black pills from his arms.

He tilted his head back and swallowed it in one gulp.

Close your eyes and sit cross-legged.

He kept making seals with his hands, and after a while, the black air on his face slowly disappeared.

"call……"

The middle-aged scholar opened his eyes and let out a long sigh.

"What's the situation?" In the candlelight, on the other side of the wooden table, a bald man with a long scar on his face was looking at him with some concern.

"I failed to persuade that guy, and even one of my shadow puppets was killed." The middle-aged scholar said coldly.

"That's not surprising."

The bald burly man on the other side poured a cup of tea and said gently, "Old fellow Li Daoxuan has very high standards. If you can be noticed by him, you must have something extraordinary."

"So what?" The middle-aged scholar snorted coldly, "Can such a huge Demon Suppression Bureau be supported by him alone? Moreover, Li Daoxuan has reached old age and is unwilling to merge with the demon corpse. He will not live for many days."

"He did this and suddenly arranged for someone to take over the Demon Suppression Tower. It was just a last-ditch effort to take the opportunity to turn against us."

A middle-aged scholar named Song Ting.

He is a powerful elder in the Song family who suppresses demons.

He also has a brother named Song Yingchun. When the two of them join forces, they are strong enough to rival a family head.

It is precisely because of these two people that among the six major families in Baihua County, except for the Hong family, which is far ahead in strength, the Song family is vaguely the strongest among the remaining five families.

The gentle bald man in front of Song Ting was Hong Wendao.

Hong Wendao is a chess piece arranged by the Hong family in the Demon Suppression Bureau, and was also a strong contender for the original position of deputy commander.

But now, news came from the Demon Suppression Division.

This position was assigned to an outsider out of nowhere.

Hong Wendao had been planning this matter for decades, so naturally he was unwilling to give up easily.

That's how this conspiracy came about. The two tried it out, but the result was not optimistic. The shadow puppet that Song Ting had spent a lot of resources to cultivate was directly killed.

Caught off guard, Lian Songting was counterattacked and seriously injured.

"Are you really sure you can defeat that man?" Song Ting still felt a little unsafe. "That man does not live in the Demon Suppression Division, but in Jiangyue Pavilion. We can find an opportunity to kill him directly."

Song Ting put his palms together as if they were a knife and drew a line on his neck with a sinister look on his face.

Anyway, this is not the first time something like this has happened.

The previous Lord of the Demon-Suppressing Tower, Xu Tong, was injured and disabled by them, and no evidence was left.

Even Li Daoxuan had some doubts.

Without definite clues, there is nothing we can do to them.

"No." Hong Wendao shook his head and decisively rejected Song Ting's proposal. "It's okay to do this once, but it's not safe to do it a second time."

"Besides, he doesn't live in the Demon Suppression Division. It's hard to guarantee that this isn't a trap deliberately set by Li Daoxuan to lure us in."

"If we anger Li Daoxuan, we'll be in big trouble... We won't be able to get away with it."

"That's right," Song Ting frowned.

Li Daoxuan is almost at the end of his rope, he just needs to slowly consume it.

If the table is overturned, this old guy will get angry and take away a few family heads with no problem.

This is why, even though the combined strength of the six major families has surpassed that of the Demon Suppression Division, they have never fallen out, and the entire Baihua County still maintains superficial harmony.

of course……

This kind of peace could not last long.

Once Li Daoxuan dies, it doesn't even matter if he dies, as long as he is weak enough to no longer suppress everything.

By then, the entire Baihua County will be in chaos and the world will be turned upside down.

"Moreover, Li Daoxuan would never have thought that I have already perfected the Hong family's Iron Chain Blocking the River Power, plus the amplification effect brought by the Honglu Pill. If I burst out with all my strength, even if it is Li Daoxuan in his normal state, I can still withstand more than ten moves from him."

boom!
Hong asked, gently putting down the glass.

Looking at the dark rain outside the window, his face was full of confidence.

It seemed like it would be a great honor for him to be able to take on Li Daoxuan's ten moves under normal circumstances.

"Since he wants to struggle, let him try. Since he doesn't want to be decent, I will help him be decent!" Hong Wendao stretched out his hand and clenched his five fingers fiercely.

In the firelight, the gentle temperament on his face disappeared.

A scar made his face look even colder and more ruthless. "I will tell him that even the legendary Golden Eyed Ape King who suppressed everything will one day become too old and powerless. This Baihua County will eventually belong to my family. This is the trend of the times, and no one can stop it!"
