I cast eternal life with the seeds of Tao

In a hidden jungle halfway up Niujiao Mountain.

Zhao Heng slapped the buzzing flies in front of him, moved his legs that were numb from squatting, and looked at the empty mountain road, and couldn't help but be a little surprised.

"What's going on? Why haven't they come yet?"

Zhao Heng's original plan was to go around the side of Niujiao Mountain and go up the back mountain, setting up an ambush along the way.

Then, he appeared on the mountain road connecting the front mountain and the back mountain, luring Liu Hong and others into the trap he set.

According to Zhao Heng's original estimate, Liu Hong and others could not find anyone in the front mountain, and should come here soon.

But Zhao Heng had been waiting for an hour, but he still hadn't seen the other party's figure.

"Did they lose track? Or did they encounter a level 3 mysterious beast coming down the mountain and were wiped out?

Or did these guys not go up the mountain at all and ambush me at the foot of the mountain?"

Zhao Heng deduced many possibilities in his mind and waited for a long time in the same place.

Seeing that the enemy still showed no signs of coming, Zhao Heng simply changed his strategy and collected materials in the back mountain first. Once he found the enemy, he would lure them into a trap.

Perhaps because he went out to check the almanac, Zhao Heng had good luck.

In just half a day, he picked several materials for refining "Bone Forging Pills" in the back mountain. Although he encountered several attacks from the first-level mysterious beasts, he easily dealt with them.

In the evening, seeing that it was getting late, Zhao Heng found a hidden tree hole.

He blocked the entrance of the cave with gravel, and laid a straw mat with hay. Then he took out a roast chicken from the package and paired it with the still warm liquor in the wine bag. He took a bite of chicken and a sip of hot wine, and his body was warm and comfortable.

After eating and drinking, Zhao Heng burped and sat cross-legged to practice.

At the same time, on the other side of the mountain.

Beside a cold and damp mountain stream, several figures huddled in the corner of the valley. The wind was biting and there were occasional creepy wolf howls.

Hungry and cold, coupled with the threat of the mysterious beasts, inevitably made some people show fear in their eyes.

One person couldn't help but huddle and said, "Deacon Liu, I don't know where Zhao Heng has gone. There are also a group of magic warriors from Huagumen. They are probably still searching for us. There are so many mysterious beasts on this mountain, and our dry food is lost.

Or... let's go down the mountain first."

"Shut up!"

Liu Hong, who was sitting cross-legged in the corner, shouted coldly. Under the cold moonlight, his face was covered with a layer of frost, and it was ashen.

Liu Hong was very depressed at this time. He went up the mountain today and wanted to kill Zhao Heng quickly. He didn't expect that Zhao Heng had lost him now. On the way up the mountain, he was also attacked by Huagumen.

For some reason, when the other party heard his name, they rushed up like chicken blood.

Fortunately, the strongest of the other side were only a few warriors of the ninth level of the Tempering Body Realm. Although there were many people, they were defeated by him and his men.

Liu Hong thought that after killing these people, he could go up the mountain without any obstacles to search for Zhao Heng's traces.

But he didn't expect that the Bone-Transforming Sect actually ambushed more than one group of people and set many traps on the way up the mountain. Even at the end, a strong man of the Bone-Tempering Realm took action.

Liu Hong led his men and fought bloody battles all the way. It was not easy to break out of the siege and barely found a hiding place.

Because they lost a lot of luggage and dry food in the battle, they didn't dare to go out to hunt mysterious beasts easily at night, so they could only starve and freeze in the cold wind.

Recalling everything that happened today, Liu Hong's chest was filled with evil fire, depressed, angry, and helpless!

"Huh...!"

Liu Hong exhaled forcefully and said to everyone, "It's so late now. It's easy to be attacked by mysterious beasts if we go down the mountain now, not to mention the group of magic warriors from Huagumen.

We will rest here for one night. We will find some food and rest up tomorrow morning before searching for Zhao Heng's traces!"

Everyone heard this and although they complained in their hearts, they could only continue to endure!

At this time, in a hidden cave in Niujiao Mountain, the fire was bright and the crowd was moving.

A group of men and women in gray and black robes gathered together and looked at a bald, one-eyed man standing in the middle of the crowd.

The big man glanced at everyone with his sharp one-eyed eyes, and said sternly: "My fellow disciples, our Huagu Sect has been in decline for many years. Now the young master wants to lead us to restore the former glory.

Now the Yuhua Sect has bullied us too much, even killing our disciples and insulting our Huagu Sect. We must fight back and don't let our fellow demons laugh at us."

"Yes, fight back!"

Everyone responded, and someone asked: "Big Brother, what should we do now?"

A cold light flashed in the eyes of the one-eyed man, "Although this Liu Hong is very powerful, we are outnumbered, and the way down the mountain has been blocked by us. There are secret guards stationed everywhere in the front mountain, and they have been surrounded.

Wait until tomorrow morning, we will search the mountain comprehensively, and we must destroy them and show the prestige of our sect!"

...

Early the next morning.

Zhao Heng walked out of the tree hole. After a night of recuperation, he was full of energy and refreshed.

He first hid the tree hole where he was hiding, and then searched the back mountain for a circle, but still did not find any traces of Liu Hong and others.

Zhao Heng was speechless, thinking that these guys were too slow, and they couldn't even eat hot shit.

But Zhao Heng didn't dare to rush into other areas to search, fearing that he would be ambushed by the enemy, so he simply stayed in the back mountain to continue collecting medicinal materials and wait for the rabbit.

This wait lasted for three whole days. Zhao Heng relied on his extraordinary strength to search in the outer area of ​​the back mountain.

Not only did he gather more than half of the medicinal materials for refining the Bone Forging Pill, but he also killed more than a dozen first-level mysterious beasts, which was a great harvest.

However, what makes Zhao Heng depressed is that in the past three days, he still found no trace of Liu Hong and others.

It stands to reason that if the opponent cannot find me in the front mountain for a long time, they will definitely expand the scope and search for the back mountain. This situation is very strange.

After much hesitation, Zhao Heng finally decided to take the initiative to rush to Qianshan to inquire about the situation.

He carefully walked along the hidden and steep mountain path and approached the front mountain. He used the Zhanqi Technique to pay attention to the surrounding wind and grass and any subtle traces.

After groping all the way, we gradually entered the front mountain range.

Not long after, Zhao Heng discovered some traces of fighting and chaotic footprints ahead.

Zhao Heng followed these traces and found some corpses along the way.

Most of them were warriors wearing gray and black clothes, which looked like they were not in the right way. At the same time, he also found two disciples of the Ascension Sect, both of whom had wounds from the fighting.

Moreover, the packages and belongings on them were still there, and no one was cleaning the loot, which proved that the fighting between the two sides may still be continuing.

Through this series of on-site surveys, Zhao Heng had already guessed that it was not that Liu Hong and others did not come to search for him, but that they had a fight with others in the front mountain, and it seemed that the fight was very fierce.

Zhao Heng couldn't help but sigh, what kind of evil did Liu Hong do to meet his enemies?

However, as the saying goes, "The clams in the river compete for the fisherman's profit." Zhao Heng would not miss this opportunity to fish in troubled waters.

He immediately followed the traces of the fight between the two sides and cleaned up the loot along the way.

Along the way, Zhao Heng discovered the corpses of many men in black. Most of them had purple lips and black Yintang, as if they had been poisoned.

This made Zhao Heng wary, so he took anti-virus measures in advance and continued to follow up.

After tracking for seven or eight miles in this way, Zhao Heng gained a lot of wealth by "picking up corpses".

Near an open woodland, he finally heard the sounds of swords clashing and fighting.

Covered by a huge boulder and weeds, Zhao Heng peeked out secretly and saw two groups of people fighting fiercely about ten feet away.

There are seven people on one side, all wearing gray and black attire, and there are only four people on the other side, all wearing the uniforms of Yuhua Sect's handyman disciples.

Although the latter was at a numerical disadvantage, the seven men in gray seemed to have been poisoned, their movements were slow, and they were retreating steadily.

In just a moment, the seven people were killed by four handyman disciples.

The leader looked at the fallen enemy and couldn't help but show excitement, "Deacon Liu's poison is so powerful, these demons have almost no fighting power."

Another person said: "Stop talking nonsense first, go help Deacon Liu and kill the leader of the Bone Transformation Sect, and then search for that boy Zhao Heng."

"Yes, it is Zhao Heng who caused this unreasonable disaster for us. When we find him, we must peel off his skin and twitch his muscles, and torture him until he is worse than dead!"

The four of them were full of resentment and blamed Zhao Heng for what happened in the past few days.

However, just as the four of them were preparing to move the battlefield and run towards the other side of the forest.

"Shua...!"

In the dense grass on one side, a blade of light suddenly appeared, as fast as lightning, and it stabbed out suddenly.

Among the four people, an eighth-level warrior of the Body Tempering Realm who was standing at the edge was stabbed directly through the throat, and blood spurted out like an arrow.

This shocking change came so unexpectedly that the other three people were so shocked that they quickly retreated and looked towards the grass.

"Who is it?"

The blood-stained sword light pushed through the jungle, and a thin young man wearing black clothes with shiny black eyes walked out of the jungle holding a blood-stained short knife and looked at the three of them with a harmless expression of an animal.

"Senior brothers, are you looking for me?"

The moment they saw the young man's face, the three people's pupils shrank and turned pale with shock.

"Zhao Heng!"

But after being shocked, the eyes of the three of them shot out a fierce light at the same time.

"You brat, how dare you show up!"

"Brothers, if we kill this kid, our trip will be considered a complete success!"

The three of them immediately rushed towards Zhao Heng. They were strong and swift, and they had all reached the ninth level of the Body Tempering Realm.

In order to avoid any accidents during this operation, Liu Hong not only took action personally, but also brought out his right-hand man, the most elite men, in order to ensure that Zhao Heng was destroyed.

Although they know that Zhao Heng is not simple, the three of them have the ninth level of body tempering realm. Even if they face a strong man in the bone forging realm, they can deal with it, so naturally they will not be afraid of him.

Facing the three people joining forces, Zhao Heng was also subconsciously cautious.

The feet are on all sides, the fists are on all sides, and the swords are on three sides. While defending, lime powder and soft tendons are always ready to meet the enemy.

However, after only fighting for a moment, he discovered that the strength of these three people was average.

His shooting speed was even more limited by his own body skills, and he couldn't even touch the corners of his clothes.

Seeing that the other party seemed to be at the end of his rope, Zhao Heng simply stopped holding back.

Using the Bone Transformation Step, his body resembled a ghost, shuttling between the three of them.

The black-gold leopard-headed sword in his hand cut through the black light and brought up a line of blood.

While cutting one person's throat, the blade turned and plunged into the other person's chest.

The man groaned, his eyes widened, and before he died, he grabbed Zhao Heng's blade with both hands.

The third person took this opportunity and struck out with all his strength.

This is an entry-level palm technique, with strong palm force, hitting Zhao Heng directly in the face.

Faced with this fierce palm, Zhao Heng raised his left hand and punched out.

This punch was solid and simple, but it carried an unstoppable force.

"Crack...!"

When the fists and palms collided, the man's palm force was shaken away by a huge force, and his wrist bone was broken.

But Zhao Heng's fist did not reduce his strength, and his fist hit the opponent's chest like a cannonball.

"Bang...!"

With only a muffled sound, the man did not even scream, but spurted out a mouthful of blood, flew back several meters away, his chest sunken, his eyes wide open, and died on the spot!

In a blink of an eye, one eighth-level Tempering Realm warrior and three ninth-level Tempering Realm warriors were all killed by Zhao Heng, and it took only a few dozen breaths.

After doing all this, Zhao Heng pulled out the leopard-headed short knife that was inserted into the enemy's chest, and while wiping the blade, he muttered to himself.

"They are all ninth-level Tempering Realm warriors, why are they so weak? It saved me a lot of lime."
