The divine manifestations began at the Gongwei Division.

Zhou Heng's favorite reward was cultivation level, without exception.

With his newfound cultivation, he could then cultivate whatever he desired.

Unlike other things, it was not imposed on him.

Of course, if others knew what he was thinking, they would definitely spit on him and give him a hard look.

What does it mean to impose?

We'd like to impose our own ideas, okay?

"This thousand years of cultivation has come at just the right time."

Zhou Heng was secretly delighted.

He needs the cultivation of Taoist arts to practice the Heavenly Gang Immortal Techniques.

He possessed a powerful celestial technique capable of moving mountains and overturning seas, which he obtained from the weapon-forging master Gao Shaojun.

He has been trying to understand this for a while, but he hasn't been able to grasp even the basics.

Now that he has accumulated a thousand years of cultivation, he certainly won't hesitate any longer.

With a slight thought, Zhou Heng directly poured his millennia of cultivation into the Heavenly Gang Immortal Technique of Moving Mountains and Overturning Seas.

hum!

For an instant.

Zhou Heng trembled violently.

Countless memories surged from his mind, so numerous that they nearly overwhelmed his consciousness.

Zhou Heng maintained a sliver of clarity with the powerful willpower gained from his two lifetimes.

Those memories churned endlessly in Zhou Heng's mind, and it took a full cup of tea's time for the turbulent sea of ​​memories to gradually calm down.

Zhou Heng closed his eyes and gradually digested the memories of his thousand years of cultivation.

A surge of immortal energy emerged from the dantian and then circulated once along a special path.

Just as the immortal energy was about to be released, Zhou Heng withdrew it again.

The power to move mountains and overturn seas cannot be used casually, otherwise the destructive force will be too great.

Any celestial magic technique is incredibly powerful, and this "Moving Mountains and Overturning Seas" technique is no exception.

If Zhou Heng were to use this immortal technique within Chengdu, and accidentally move a mountain, it could level half the city.

Of course, although this Heavenly Gang Immortal Technique has been perfected over a thousand years, Zhou Heng's own cultivation level is only that of a fourth-rank immortal official. Even if he can move mountains, he can only move a mountain that is a thousand feet high.

He can't move those towering peaks for the time being.

No matter how advanced the magic is, it still needs the support of celestial energy.

"With this Heavenly Divine Technique, I have another trump card."

Zhou Heng flipped through the cultivation memories in his mind and became more and more satisfied with this Mountain-Moving and Sea-Overturning Technique.

If he had known this Heavenly Gang Immortal Technique before, whether it was the Little Demon King or the Blood Ape General, he could have smashed them into mincemeat by throwing a mountain at them.

"However, this immortal technique is indeed difficult to master. Even after a thousand years of cultivation, I still haven't reached its highest level."

Zhou Heng was also somewhat surprised.

He knew his talent for cultivation was average, but even after a thousand years of cultivation, he hadn't mastered the Mountain-Moving and Sea-Overturning Technique to perfection, which could only mean that this Heavenly Gang Immortal Technique was extremely difficult to cultivate.

Otherwise, in all these generations of Gao Shaojun's family, not a single person has truly mastered this Heavenly Gang Immortal Technique.

"With my current cultivation level as a celestial official, if I were to move a thousand-foot-tall mountain ten miles, my celestial energy would be almost completely depleted."

Zhou Heng weighed the power of this Heavenly Gang Immortal Technique in his mind.

"It will take several days to recover our immortal energy. At this rate, we'll need to use mountains as a barrier against the demon court..."

They used the mountains as city walls to defend against the invasion of the demon court.

According to Gao Shaojun, once one masters the Heavenly Gang Immortal Technique, one can move mountains and overturn seas in an instant.

Zhou Heng has now mastered it.

But Zhou Heng wanted to tell him that even if he mastered the Heavenly Gang Immortal Technique of Overwhelming Mountains and Seas, building a city wall that was a hundred miles long would not be something that could be done in an instant.

First, you need to have a mountain to move.

Secondly, moving mountains also takes time.

Unless Zhou Heng obtains a Heaven-Reaching Pill right now, which would directly elevate his cultivation to the second rank.

Otherwise, given his current cultivation level as a fourth-rank immortal official, it would take him at least two or three months to build this city wall.

Two or three months is not a long time.

But Zhou Heng couldn't guarantee that the Demon Court would give him that much time.

"Forget it, there's no use thinking about it too much, let's just get started."

Zhou Heng shook his head. "When soldiers come, we'll block them; when water comes, we'll dam it."

"As long as the Demon King of Pingtian doesn't personally take action, if any other demons dare to invade my Shu Prefecture, I'll crush them with a single blow from the Shu Road Mountain!"

…………

"My lord, something terrible has happened!"

Lu Zian hurriedly knocked on Zhou Heng's door, looking anxious.

"We just received news that a demonic disturbance has broken out in Jiangyang City."

Lu Zian quickly said, "A monster sealed the city gates, and all the people in the city have become food for the monster."

They have already raised their banners to submit to the demon court.

"Give me the map."

Zhou Heng said in a deep voice.

Lu Zian was prepared and quickly spread out a map in front of Zhou Heng, then pointed to a place.

"This is Jiangyang City. It does not directly border the Shiwan Mountains; there are two counties in between."

But if they and the demons from the Demon Court attack from both sides, the two counties in the middle will be in danger.

"I said, my voice trembling slightly," Lu Zian said.

He knew the chaos would come sooner or later, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly.

Before he could sort out what was happening in Chengdu, Jiangyang City had already fallen.

"Has the Demon Court reacted?"

Zhou Heng asked in a deep voice.

Not yet.

Lü Zian said.

"Do you know what kind of monster is occupying Jiangyang City?"

Zhou Heng continued to ask.

"It could be—"

Lu Zian paused for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "It could be Lord Qingyang."

"Lord Qingyang Mountain?"

Zhou Heng frowned slightly. "Didn't it escape? Why has it occupied Jiangyang City again?"

And isn't it trying to break through to the Demon King realm and stand on equal footing with the Demon Court?

Why are you now siding with the Demon Court?

Zhou Heng asked several questions in a row.

Lu Zian was stunned; he hadn't thought about these questions either.

"Scholar, when and how did you receive news of the fall of Jiangyang City?"

Zhou Heng asked.

"Sir, are you saying this is a trap?"

Lu Zian's expression changed.

The news came too quickly and too clearly.

It was as if the news had come from within Jiangyang City.

Under normal circumstances, when the Guardian Bureau receives news of the demonic disturbance, it will send people to quell the unrest.

There are only a few people in the Shu Prefecture Guard Division. If such a large-scale demonic disturbance really breaks out, Zhou Heng will definitely have to go.

Was the incident in Jiangyang County a trap set by a demon targeting Zhou Heng?

"My lord, I—"

Lu Zian's face turned pale, and his lips trembled as he spoke.

He rushed to report without verifying the information, which was a dereliction of duty on his part.

He's now a secret spy for the Shu Prefecture Guard.

"It may not necessarily be a trap."

Zhou Heng shook his head. "If this really was done by Lord Qingyang."

It's possible they're trying to lure me over for negotiations.

This is a good thing.

If it has any requests, at least the people in Jiangyang County are safe for the time being.

"negotiation?"

Lu Zian looked thoughtful, then suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

"The Heaven-Reaching Pill?"

"Monsters don't need the Heavenly Pill; the Demon Saint Bone is enough for them."

Zhou Heng said with a half-smile, "This thing works even better than I expected; it's already taking effect so quickly."

It seems I absolutely have to make a trip to Jiangyang County.
