I cast eternal life with the seeds of Tao

Soon after, Song Xinghe, full of joy, left Zhao Heng's cabin.

An hour later, a huge tray with a diameter of several feet was placed in front of Zhao Heng.

On the tray was a piece of freshly roasted ribs, as big as half a roasted lamb.

The ribs were golden and shiny, sprinkled with seasonings, and the aroma of meat instantly made Zhao Heng's appetite grow.

He directly tore off a piece of elbow-long ribs and ate them with relish.

"Crunch, crunch...!"

Zhao Heng chewed and swallowed them without even spitting out the bones.

As soon as the food entered his stomach, it was immediately digested.

The strands of blood essence extracted and purified from it flowed into Zhao Heng's body.

It only took a few dozen breaths for Zhao Heng to finish off this huge roasted rib.

He smacked his lips with satisfaction, and felt it again. He only gained a little blood power, and felt a little helpless.

His physical strength and blood power far surpassed those of the warriors in the Heavenly Ascension Realm. The meat of these acquired demon beasts naturally slowed down the growth of his blood power.

Afterwards, Zhao Heng simply sat cross-legged and used the blood power to refine the energy in his meridians again to repair his broken meridians and internal organs.

Although the speed of refining these energies was slow, it was still effective, and Zhao Heng did not slack off at all.

At the same time, in a study on the east side of the second floor of the cabin.

"Dad, has the body forging warrior surnamed Zhao agreed to become a guest of the family?"

Song Shanshan, who was dressed in a yellow dress, had a beautiful appearance and a slim figure. Seeing her father return to the study, she quickly put down the account book in her hand and asked with concern.

Song Xinghe smiled, relieved, and said, "Although Mr. Zhao did not agree to serve as a guest official, he expressed his willingness to travel with us to the city of the Four-Party Alliance and provide us with shelter along the way."

Song Shanshan's eyes lit up slightly, and then asked, "Then he must have put forward some conditions, right?"

Song Xinghe nodded and said, "Mr. Zhao said that we just need to provide him with enough monster meat along the way.

I have ordered people to leave all the remaining monster meat on the ship to Mr. Zhao."

Hearing this, Song Shanshan was not surprised.

"I heard that the training of a body forging warrior requires a lot of blood and qi. I guess he is doing it for training.

But father, the value of monster meat is not low, and the monster meat reserves of our caravan are also extremely limited. If we leave it all to Mr. Zhao, I am afraid that it will cause dissatisfaction among the family's worshippers."

Song Xinghe snorted coldly: "Speaking of these worshippers, I get angry. The family has never treated them unfairly on weekdays.

But when guest Wu threatened us father and daughter, several of them stood up again. A group of ungrateful wolves!"

Hearing this, Song Shanshan couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"It's not their fault. After all, they only have the cultivation level of bone forging, and naturally they are not the opponents of the strong men in the organ refining realm. Fortunately, evil will be punished, and the surname Wu is dead.

By the way, father, have you figured out the cultivation level of Mr. Zhao?"

"Uh..."

Song Xinghe hesitated and said: "I asked... but Mr. Zhao didn't say it clearly, just said it was enough to protect us."

Hearing this, Song Shanshan widened her beautiful eyes.

"Dad, you didn't even know his cultivation level, but you gave away all the monster meat?"

Song Xinghe scratched his head awkwardly, but still said: "Shanshan, I have a hunch that Mr. Zhao is not an ordinary person.

Besides, he was able to remain unscathed under that kind of impact, so I think his strength must be good."

Song Shanshan couldn't help but cover her forehead with her hand, "Dad, when you chose the man surnamed Wu as a guest official, you also said that it was based on intuition, but what happened?"

"Uh... the ship will dock in a few days, and I have no choice."

Song Shanshan nodded helplessly, "Alas... forget it, I hope this Mr. Zhao has real skills."

...

In the next few days, Zhao Heng's three meals a day were all fragrant monster meat.

Although he felt that the amount was a bit small, Zhao Heng could see it.

Song Xinghe had already spent a lot of money to be able to take out so much monster meat, so he didn't feel embarrassed to raise the requirements.

In addition to eating, Zhao Heng spent most of his time in the room refining energy and repairing meridians, and no accidents happened during this period.

If there is only one thing that caught Zhao Heng's attention, it was that the last few meals were delivered by the eldest lady of the Song family, Song Shanshan.

When she saw Zhao Heng eating without spitting out even the bones, and the way he devoured the food like a whirlwind, the eldest lady Song was really shocked.

She muttered to herself that it was true that the body builders were a group of vulgar and reckless men.

The eldest lady Song took the opportunity to chat with Zhao Heng on the pretext of delivering meals. The seemingly casual communication was actually a test.

Zhao Heng naturally saw that the other party was skeptical about his strength.

And Zhao Heng always dealt with it vaguely and did not say it clearly.

This made the eldest lady quite depressed, and at the same time, her suspicion of Zhao Heng increased a little.

Soon, five days passed.

Early that day, the merchant ship of the Song family finally docked at a dilapidated and deserted dock.

Even though the Song family had abandoned a lot of valuables and little-used items before leaving, the cargo and luggage on the ship still filled more than 20 carriages.

Add in nearly a hundred family servants and guards, and a dozen family servants, and it was indeed a large team.

As the head of the family, Song Xinghe and his daughter Song Shanshan originally took a carriage each.

However, at this time, Song Xinghe took the initiative to give up the carriage and asked Zhao Heng to ride. He rode a horse and followed the caravan priests.

The destination of their trip was Tiexue City, one of the four cities where the Four Alliances were stationed.

This was the city guarded by the "Iron Blood Gate", one of the four overlords of the Four Alliances.

There were many strong men in the Iron Blood Gate, and even several masters of the Ascension Realm were stationed there, forming an alliance with the other three overlords of the Four Alliances.

They had repelled the invading beast tide many times, and they were well-known forces in thousands of miles.

Therefore, in Tiexue City, commerce was prosperous, and many merchants came to do business.

Song Xinghe fled thousands of miles because of the stability and security of Tiexue City.

However, there were still hundreds of miles from the riverside wharf to Tiexue City.

During the journey, one had to pass through a forest, where monsters often appeared. Without a strong cultivator, it was almost impossible to pass through.

Now the large group of people traveled in the morning and slept at night, and there were people on guard and patrol day and night.

After walking on land for two days with such caution, they finally saw the forest in the distance.

It was winter at this time. The winter in Zhongzhou was very cold, and snowflakes were floating in the sky.

The biting cold wind whistled past, blowing the caravan people, shivering, curling their necks into the collar, as if this was the only way to keep some warmth.

Even the dozen or so Song family priests who were in the bone-forging realm could not help but wrap their cotton clothes tightly at this moment.

After traveling another seven or eight miles, they were only a few miles away from the forest hidden in the snow.

Song Xinghe, who was a little nervous, signaled the caravan to stop and rest on the spot.

Everyone was about to enter the most dangerous area, so they naturally had to replenish their nutrition in advance and get enough energy before going on the road.

The caravan stopped by the trail, and the servants of the Song family were busy with their daily life and cooking.

Soon, bowls of hot meat soup and noodles were delivered to the Song family's worshippers.

It was not easy to eat such a hot meal in the cold wilderness.

However, at this moment, the worshippers' eyes were looking straight at a place not far away.

There was a tempting aroma coming from the sizzling thigh meat of a monster roasted on charcoal fire.

Everyone was drooling at the sight, and the meat soup and noodles in front of them seemed to be no longer fragrant.

But in the end, the roasted beast leg was delivered to the carriage in the middle of the team by the head of the Song family and two servants.

Seeing this, the Song family's worshippers were envious in their hearts and couldn't help complaining.

"The head of the family gives us leftovers, but gives that guy such a big piece of monster meat. What does this mean?"

"That's right. When this guy didn't come, we could still eat monster meat every now and then. Now he has given it all to him. The head of the family is too partial!"

Someone who knows the situation also said: "What do you know? I heard that the guy in the carriage fell from a hundred feet high into the river without any serious injury. It seems that he is a powerful body forger. The family spent a lot of money to hire him to protect the caravan."

"Tsk, it turns out to be a crude body forger. We haven't seen him take action. Who knows how strong he is."

"That's right. When we enter the forest and encounter monsters, we will know whether he has real skills."

Everyone talked about it. They were curious and jealous of this mysterious body forger who was eating monster meat while sitting in a carriage.

At this time, Song Xinghe, who delivered the roasted beast meat to the carriage, bowed respectfully to Zhao Heng and said.

"Mr. Zhao, we are about to enter the forest. I am afraid there will be monsters. Do you want me to prepare something for you, such as weapons, armor, etc.?"

At this time, Zhao Heng was holding a roasted beast leg that was thicker than his thigh and chewing it.

Hearing this, he casually said: "Just prepare the monster meat for me on time, and don't prepare anything else."

"Uh..."

Song Xinghe wanted to say something else, but Zhao Heng had already finished eating the roasted beast leg and covered the curtain.

"I want to start practicing."

"Yes, yes..." Song Xinghe had to leave.

When passing by Song Shanshan's carriage, Miss Song asked a few questions in a low voice, and the head of the Song family told the truth.

Miss Song couldn't help but frown. These days, she has been observing this young man named Zhao.

With her extraordinary eyesight, she couldn't see through this person at all, let alone know his cultivation.

The only characteristic this person showed was "being able to eat".

"Can this guy really do it?"

Looking at the carriage where Zhao Heng was, both father and daughter showed worry.

But they had already come here, and the stored food was not enough to change the itinerary, and it was impossible to turn back.

Finally, an hour later.

Under the order of the head of the Song family, the large group of people headed towards the forest in the wind and snow.
