I practiced with a cheat

Huo Qingyun's sudden action made Zhai Gang and the other two palace masters look stunned, and they looked at the paper man with strange expressions.

"House Master Huo, are you really crazy?" Zhai Gang sneered: "This is just a paper man. Who can you invite with this thing? The immortal of Chunyang Palace? Don't joke!"

"Brother Zhai, why don't you also cut a paper man to summon the masters of the Five Elements Sect and Tianhuoshan Villa?" The other two palace masters also laughed loudly, and they didn't believe that Huo Qingyun could call people from Chunyang Palace with this paper man.

In fact, Huo Qingyun himself was a little nervous.

After all, cutting paper into soldiers is a Taoist method, which is a method that few people in the world understand. Even though he is the master of a palace and a martial arts master of the sixth level, he knows very little about Taoism and is not sure whether he can really summon Zhou Heng through this paper man.

Buzz!

At this time, a trembling sound rang out of thin air in the void.

The space was rippling like the surface of water, followed by an extremely powerful pressure, which immediately made Zhai Gang and the other two palace masters breathless.

"Welcome to Immortal Zhou Heng!" Huo Qingyun was overjoyed and bowed in greeting.

Then the paper man shook gently, emitting a dazzling light, and quickly turned into a figure the size of an ordinary person.

After a moment, the light dissipated, and a handsome young Taoist priest appeared here.

It was Zhou Heng.

"This, this is..."

"Is it really the immortal of Chunyang Palace?!"

"How is it possible?!"

Huo Qingyun and the other two palace masters were horrified and looked at the young Taoist priest who suddenly appeared in disbelief. This was a magical method they had never seen before.

"I guess the three of you are the masters of the three palaces adjacent to Huangtong Palace." Zhou Heng smiled and spoke, looking non-hostile and kind.

"That's right. It's us." Zhai Gang and the other two palace masters nodded, their voices trembling.

Although Zhou Heng looked very kind and didn't seem to be going to take action, he had an extremely powerful pressure spreading since he arrived, which made the three palace masters bear great pressure and feel that they might collapse at any time.

"I heard from Lord Huo before that you had occupied three counties in my hometown?" Zhou Heng looked like he was asking about an ordinary matter and smiled: "Is it true?"

"No, no, no! No, no, absolutely not!"

Zhai Gang immediately shook his head and denied it, "We Qingyu Mansion is just borrowing land temporarily, just borrowing land temporarily, and we have no intention of occupying it. Since we have alarmed the immortal, we will leave now, leave now."

"We too, we have no intention of occupying it, we will leave immediately!"

"Yes, yes, yes, we have no intention of occupying it, please forgive us, the immortal, we will evacuate your hometown as quickly as possible."

The other two palace masters also quickly expressed their attitudes.

Dare not to delay.

"Wait a minute." Zhou Heng stopped the three people, shook his head and smiled: "Don't you have to pay for temporarily borrowing land? Where in the world can there be such a good thing? What do you think?"

"This..." Zhai Gang and the other two assistants looked at each other, and their faces showed a smile that was uglier than crying, saying: "This, this, we will discuss the compensation with Lord Huo."

"That's great." Zhou Heng nodded lightly, and then the paper man incarnation shook lightly, and then it returned to the appearance of an ordinary paper man and fell in the air.

"Thank you, Immortal!" Huo Qingyun thanked him while carefully putting away the paper man, then looked at Zhai Gang and others, and smiled: "Three adults, can you trust me now?"

"..." Zhai Gang and the other three were speechless, and could only lower their heads and sigh. Finally, Zhai Gang spoke up and said, "Lord Huo, what do you want?"

Now they regretted it so much that their intestines turned green. They never thought that the final result would be like this.

Not only did they fail to occupy the territory of Dao Huangtong Mansion, but now they are afraid that they will have to pay a lot.

"I, Huo, believe in an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth." Huo Qingyun said in a deep voice: "Since the three adults wanted to take my three counties before, why don't you each take out three counties and assign them to Huangtong Mansion now, how about it?"

"You..."

"This..."

"Huo..."

The three wanted to curse, but as soon as they said a word, they held back the rest of the words.

None of them dared to say it out loud.

Zhou Heng's power just now was really too terrifying, and they didn't want to bear it again.

"Okay!"

The three of them could only grit their teeth and agree in the end.

This was also a matter of course. Who let the situation be stronger than people? The other side had the support of the strong, but they didn't have it on their side, and the advantages and disadvantages were reversed in an instant.

"Okay, I hope the three adults will keep their promise." Huo Qingyun said with a smile.

He himself didn't expect that the matter would be solved so easily. Originally, he thought that even if Zhou Heng's incarnation came with the help of a paper man, he would most likely have to take action to establish his authority.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Heng just said a few words and completely suppressed Zhai Gang and the other two, making them lose all thoughts of resistance.

Such strength is really terrifying, and he is indeed a strong man who can kill the immortals head-on.

So powerful!

…

At this time, Zhou Heng had left the Middle Earth Continent and boarded a merchant ship to the Yuzhu Kingdom in the East China Sea.

Of course, he could also fly to the East China Sea by himself and investigate all kinds of information about the Thirty-Six Heavens and the evil gods and monsters, but that approach is too detached from real life and ordinary people.

This makes it easy to overlook many details.

Before this, Zhou Heng had carefully read the information about the East China Sea at the Zhoutian Xunjie Division and Chunyang Palace, and had a lot of knowledge about the entire East China Sea, the East China Sea countries, the scattered immortal forces, etc.

But what he wanted to find, just looking at these surface information would not work.

Whether it was the evil gods or monsters, or the information about the fall of the ancient heaven, there was no clue in these surface information, not even a clue.

If you just look for it directly, there will be no rules, it will be an unplanned exploration, it will be like a headless fly, and it will be very inefficient and difficult to gain anything.

In the case that no clues can be found in normal information, Zhou Heng naturally turned his attention to some traditional myths and folk legends circulating in the East China Sea countries.

These stories passed down by word of mouth are often passed down for a long time, and some of them may even be traced back to the distant ancient times. Maybe there are clues that Zhou Heng wants.

Therefore, he chose a merchant ship from the shore of the East China Sea to a sea country and traveled with it.

This can help him fully understand the views of the coastal residents on the East China Sea countries and some folk legends circulating in the East China Sea countries.

…

The merchant ship was not traveling very fast. It took five days to travel from the East China Sea to Yuzhu Country.

Therefore, there was a special living area on the ship, with a large amount of food stored for the sailors and passengers.

Zhou Heng originally planned to ask the sailors about the information of the East China Sea countries, but he did not expect to meet an overseas alien on the ship.

A female alien from the feathered tribe, with wings on her ribs and delicate and beautiful facial features.

—— Aliens are also human, but because in ancient times, their ancestors had physical features that were obviously different from normal humans for various reasons.

For example, feathered people with wings on their ribs, shadow people who can turn into shadows, giants who are more than three feet tall when they grow up, and little people who are born short and are no taller than one foot, and the sunlight tribe who can absorb sunlight to make themselves huge...

These are actually all human.

Aliens are rare in the Central Plains, but they are not rare in coastal states such as Jinzhou.

However, it was the first time Zhou Heng saw an alien, and he couldn't help but look at him a few more times.

"Are you curious about me?" The feathered woman turned her head and glared at Zhou Heng, then said, "When we get to the East China Sea, if you dare to look at others like this, be careful that your eyes will be dug out!"

"Oh?" Zhou Heng walked over and chuckled, "It seems that the girl knows a lot about the East China Sea countries?"

"Not really, but I know a little bit." The feathered woman glanced at Zhou Heng indifferently, and said indifferently, "Why, do you want to come here to ask for information?"

"The girl saw through me." Zhou Heng nodded slightly and smiled, "Indeed, I have something to do in the East China Sea countries, and I want to know about the local situation. Please tell me something."

He could hear that although the girl's tone was unkind, her original intention was good. She was reminding him to be careful about his behavior after arriving in the East China Sea countries, so as not to cause trouble.

In the Middle Earth, people with special appearances and different from normal humans are called aliens, while in the East China Sea countries, normal humans are "aliens", and they have left their homes and are far away from their tribes. Once they cause trouble, the result may be tragic, or even life.

Therefore, this girl should not be a bad person by nature, and you can ask some questions.

"Go ahead, what do you want to ask?"

The feathered girl found a bench nearby and sat down, looking at Zhou Heng casually, and said: "However, you look very young. According to the standards of your human race, you should have just reached adulthood. Why do you want to leave your homeland and go overseas?"

"Because there are important things I want to investigate." Zhou Heng answered very honestly, and asked: "I want to ask, are there any legends about the destruction of the world and the end of the world in the East China Sea?"

According to Jiang Er, at the end of the ancient times, the heavens fell, the heavens collapsed, and the world was a doomsday scene. This must have brought extremely deep fear to the ancient ancestors. If there are related descriptions handed down, it must be a legend related to the destruction of the world.

Therefore, starting the investigation from the legend of the destruction of the world should be a good direction.

"Oh, I understand." The feathered girl looked as if she had suddenly realized something. She looked at Zhou Heng with a smile and said, "So you want to preach in the East China Sea countries?"

"Preach?" Zhou Heng was stunned when he heard this, and then smiled and said, "If the girl thinks so, it's okay."

He has some understanding of missionaries.

There are many secret sects in the states of the Middle Earth. Not only will they spread and develop believers in the Middle Earth, but sometimes they will go overseas to try to preach overseas and gather a group of overseas believers.

These secret sects are both good and evil, with different purposes, and it is difficult to distinguish between good and evil.

Therefore, except for some sects that are too ostentatious, the major sects and families basically turn a blind eye to such sects and don't care much.

This feathered girl works on a merchant ship and travels between the Middle Earth and the East China Sea countries. She should have seen many similar missionaries. It is normal to regard him as a missionary now.

"I have a good impression of the missionaries, so I'll tell you about it." The attitude of the feathered girl was obviously much kinder, and she smiled and said, "First, let me tell you about the myth of our feathered people's destruction of the world.

"It is said that a long time ago, the sky was divided into 36 layers, and each layer had a god king who dominated everything. They controlled all the rules between heaven and earth, as well as all living things.

"Then one day, black lightning appeared in the sky, a huge red fireball fell, the sky and the earth fell into darkness, the thirty-six layers of the sky were shattered, and the gods died one after another.

"From then on, everything in the world will turn into charcoal, and eventually there will be nothing left, and the world will return to silence. At that time, a true god will wake up from nothingness, open up a new world, and create new sentient beings.

"That's roughly it."

"Everything in the world will turn into charcoal, and eventually there will be nothing left, and the world will return to silence?" Zhou Heng narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard this, and chuckled: "But isn't the world still fine now?"

"Think about it, 'everything in the world will turn into charcoal', which means that the world we are in now is in the process of turning into charcoal." The feather girl explained, "But I don't really believe it, myths are just myths."

"What is the true god who will eventually open up a new world?" Zhou Heng continued to ask.

The information he got from Jiang Tafa before did not include this point about opening up a new world.

At that time, Jiang Tafa only mentioned that after the ancient times, all living beings believed that the end of the world was coming, and never said that there would be something to restart everything after everything was destroyed.

However, one possibility cannot be ruled out. Perhaps this is just a change made by the Feathered People to the myth of the end of the world, adding a glimmer of hope to the final desperate ending.

"Who knows?" The Feathered Girl shook her head and said, "Do you want to hear anything else?"

"Please tell me, girl." Zhou Heng nodded.

"Then you have to pay." The feather girl laughed and said, "You don't think I'm talking to you for so long just because you're pretty, do you? I need to eat."

"..." Zhou Heng nodded and took out a few pieces of gold and handed them to the feather girl, saying with a smile, "The girl is quite funny."

"If the storytelling is not funny, how can anyone listen, and how can you make money?" The feather girl nodded at the gold and praised, "It's very substantial, very nice, then I'll tell you about the Sunlight Clan's annihilation myth..."

This feather girl must have traveled to the East China Sea countries for many years on merchant ships, and had a wide range of knowledge. She told Zhou Heng seven annihilation myths in a row.

However, the descriptions of the prosperous scenes in ancient times are actually not much different, basically talking about the thirty-six heavens, the gathering of gods and immortals, etc.

The difference lies in the different descriptions of the scenes when the end of the world comes.

For example, the description of the Feathered People is "black lightning appeared in the sky, huge red fireballs fell, the world fell into darkness, the thirty-six layers of the sky were shattered, and the gods died one after another..."

The description of the Sunlight People is "above the thirty-six layers of heaven, the eternal sun suddenly went out one day, the earth and the sky fell into eternal darkness, the heavens collapsed silently, and the earth will also be shattered..."

The description of the Giants is "one after another, giant gods taller than the mountains fell from the sky, smashed through the barrier of the thirty-six layers of the sky, fell to the ground, blood flowed, and charcoal was everywhere. In the end, the bodies of the gods will destroy the world..."

"These may be the different scenes seen by the ancestors in different places when the heaven fell?" Zhou Heng fell into deep thought.
