I practiced with a cheat

"demon?!"

Master and disciple Yu Jianghe were a little confused when they heard this, and said somewhat uncertainly: "Senior, do you want to kill the demon?"

"That's right." Zhou Heng nodded gently and said with a smile: "Conquering demons and eliminating demons is beneficial to practice."

"Ah?" Yu Jianghe was confused when he heard this, and said in astonishment, "Is this possible?"

In his understanding, demons, demons and monsters are cruel, cruel and powerful, at least equivalent to the level of guardians.

Ordinary casual cultivators avoid these monsters and ghosts. Unless someone offers a large reward, few will take the initiative to look for the monsters.

After all, killing monsters has no real benefits and is thankless. If you encounter a powerful monster or a group of monsters, your life will be in danger.

Those who really know how to deal with demons and monsters are actually those who are in the True Form Realm or even higher levels. They have enough strength to deal with most demons.

But the reason why those great monks take action is usually just because monsters and monsters have invaded their territory, or they are asking for help from the country that supports them, and they do not have good intentions.

I have never heard of the saying that killing demons is beneficial to spiritual practice.

However, the senior in front of me should be the reincarnation of an ancient heavenly power, and he probably knows some secrets that are unknown or have been lost...

Is it true?

Is slaying demons really beneficial to spiritual practice?

"Things that are naturally beneficial to heaven and earth will naturally be beneficial to practice." Zhou Heng said with a smile, but did not explain more.

Most of the cultivation methods emphasize the unity of heaven and man, and imitate the laws of heaven and earth. If you can get positive feedback from the rules of heaven and earth, it will naturally be beneficial to your practice.

"Thank you, senior, for clarifying my doubts." Yu Jianghe did not ask any more questions and bowed respectfully to leave. "Then we will leave first. We will report to you when we have news about the demon."

"Okay." Zhou Heng nodded gently.

Afterwards, the master and apprentice left here, and only Zhou Heng and the Jiang family brother and sister were left in the small courtyard.

"Teacher, who were those people just now?" Jiang later asked curiously, "Are they good people or bad people?"

"People cannot be simply distinguished by good or bad." Zhou Heng smiled and shook his head, "However, for you now, the two people who left just now are good people, and the ones I defeated before are Bad guy."

"Uh-huh, it's a bit difficult to understand." Jiang later tilted her little head, and a puzzled expression appeared on her pretty face. For her who was only five years old, it was still too difficult to understand such a profound question. Difficult.

"I understand, I understand, those who want to bully my sister are bad people, and those who are kind to my sister are good people!" Jiang Xianchu approached Zhou Heng and said, "Teacher, am I right?"

"Haha, that's okay if you want to understand it this way." Zhou Heng laughed, and then said: "Okay, keep practicing, don't be lazy."

"Uh-huh!" The brother and sister said in unison, and then began to practice the familiar longevity skills.

…

In the next half month, Zhou Heng further perfected the improved version of the Immortality Secret.

During this period, master and apprentice Yu Jianghe came three times to report the information they had obtained about the demons, and naturally they gradually learned the new version of the longevity secret.

After this period of accumulation, Yu Jianghe should be close to breaking through the original realm level, and will be able to condense his true form and become a strong man in the true form realm.

Zhou Heng could also clearly feel that as Yu Jianghe's cultivation progressed, his own sense of the natural laws of this world became clearer.

This means that the positive feedback of the rules of heaven and earth has begun to occur and has exerted some subtle influence on him, but it has not yet reached the level where he can obtain merit.

It is estimated that only when Jiang He truly breaks through the realm can he truly gain some merit.

Or, kill some big monsters.

Master and apprentice Yu Jianghe's information was relatively well-informed. In the past half month, he had discovered six places where demons were causing trouble.

However, only four of the six places are relatively confirmed, while the remaining two are more like rumors, and two of these four places have already been taken over by the Holy Mercy Sect.

In other words, there were actually only two places Zhou Heng could choose.

"Tiger demons are causing trouble in Wushan Town in the northwest of Liang Kingdom; Liang Kingdom and Dacheng Town in the southeast are haunted at night. They are all demons and ghosts at the true form level. Tsk tsk, the area of ​​Liang Kingdom is not large, at most it is equivalent to half of Pingzhou. There are quite a few demons causing trouble.”

Zhou Heng looked through some information brought to him by Yu Jianghe's master and apprentice, and realized that the people in this world were really living in dire straits, and at the same time, he was also thinking about where to go first.

The distance between these two places and Qingxiang Town is almost the same. In terms of distance, they are almost the same in both directions. However, Wushan Town is closer to the branch altar of the Holy Mercy Sect, and the big town is closer to the capital, making it convenient for Zhou Heng to go to appointments and meetings. Cheng Jiangjian meets up.

"There are still more than three months before the rendezvous. Beidou may not have passed, and we are not in a hurry to go to the capital." Zhou Heng thought to himself: "The Holy Sect of Mercy may be able to strike first."

Jing Yanhua is the Wrathful King of the Holy Mercy Church, a master of the true form, and his status is not low. He does not think that he killed such a person, and the Holy Mercy Church will just let it go.

Instead of waiting for the Holy Sect of Mercy to come to your door, it would be better to go there by yourself and strike first.

"Speaking of which, I am still the prince of the Liang Kingdom in this body." Zhou Heng suddenly felt something in his heart and smiled secretly: "When I go to the capital for appointments in the future, I may have some interesting experiences."

You don't have to go to the capital side, but the Mercy Holy Cult side should be dealt with first. After thinking for a moment, he made a decision in his heart.

Target, Wushan Town.

…

Watch the French monk fly in a very flamboyant way.

Just like Zhou Heng now, he is flying with the power of the mighty Tianlong Bodhisattva. He condenses a dragon and an elephant under his feet and flies into the sky.

Looks quite cool.

If he were in Daqi, Zhou Heng would not dare to be so wanton. This kind of flying method is simply much more pompous than the fourth-level masters.

But in this world, it is a very common thing, and no one will cause trouble for it.

Moreover, this kind of flying method should be able to effectively avoid some misunderstandings and avoid having to go through a show of pretending to be slapped in the face.

Empty the air and travel across thousands of miles.

Zhou Heng looked far away.

Through the layers of clouds and mist, we can see the mountains stretching ahead, reaching the northwest boundary of Liang Kingdom.

…

Wushan Town is relatively a closed town.

This is because the northwest of Liang State is mountainous and transportation is very inconvenient. Especially Wushan Town is surrounded by mountains on two sides and faces water on one side. There is only one direction that leads to the outside world. After walking for thirty miles, there is a hill.

This created a closed and exclusive environment in Wushan Town, making it difficult even for officials sent by the Liang Kingdom to govern here.

In the end, there was no other choice but to choose a few of the larger local clans in Wushan Town to take turns serving as the mayor.

Therefore, the small Wushan Town is actually like a closed country within a country.

Under normal circumstances, in such a place, external communication would be poor and the people would be relatively poor.

However, there are many wild animals in the mountains and forests here, and they are rich in all kinds of furs. They are loved by wealthy families in big cities, and businessmen often come here to make large purchases.

This made the people in power in Wushan Town make a lot of money, and even ordinary people were extremely rich.

However, in the past two months, Wushan Town has not been able to sell any furs. A tiger demon is causing trouble in the mountains. The people in the town cannot go hunting in the mountains, so naturally there is no supply of furs.

This made the people in power in Wushan Town anxious, so they frantically sent people out to try their best to find the immortal master from outside.

That is, monks with magic skills.

On this day, Lin Shi, the mayor's son, spent a lot of money to invite two monks from outside.

It is said that all of them are immortal masters who can control wind and thunder, and manipulate water and fire.

After Lin Shi settled the three people in the best restaurant in town, he went back home to report the situation to his father "Lin Yan".

"Shi'er, are you sure that the two immortal masters invited this time will be able to subdue the tiger monster in the mountain?" Lin Yan, who was in his fifties, had gray beard and hair, and said with a sad look on his face.

"Father, please rest assured, there will definitely be no problem this time." Lin Shi is a young man in his twenties, looking confident. "The three groups of 'immortal masters' who were eaten by the tiger demon in front are all swindlers. .

"This time, the boy went there in person and inquired carefully outside. The reputation of these two immortal masters is widely known and they have subdued many demons. They must be fine."

"That's good, that's good." Lin Yan breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and said: "We must get rid of that tiger demon before the officials contact the immortal master to come here, otherwise our fur business here will be destroyed. Let the officials swallow it up.”

In fact, under normal circumstances, if a town encounters demons and ghosts causing trouble, it should be reported to the county government, who will then contact the court and ask for the blessings of the monks of the sect.

But most of the time, the sect will not do it in vain, but will ask the court for a large sum of money for protection, which is in addition to the regular support.

In this way, if the imperial court is exploited by the sect, it will naturally pass on this loss to the county government, and the county government will pass it on to the towns.

If the county government was really contacted, or if the county government found out that the imperial court took the initiative to contact and called in the sect's immortal master, even if the tiger demon was eliminated, the fur business in Wushan Town would probably not be saved.

This is unacceptable to the people of Wushan Town.

"I understand, kid!" Lin Shi nodded solemnly and said, "Tomorrow I will take two immortal masters to the mountains to slay the demon, skin the tiger demon, and make a mattress for you!"

"Hahaha! Okay! Okay!" Lin Yan laughed heartily and was very happy.

Tap tap tap!

At this moment, rapid footsteps came from outside the house.

Immediately, I saw a servant running over in a hurry. After bowing respectfully, he said: "Master, Master, there is an immortal master coming from outside the town. He said he is here to help us subdue demons."

"Did you come by yourself?" Lin Shi frowned slightly when he heard this, and said, "I think he is coveting the reward of ten thousand taels of silver. Give him ten taels of silver and send him away. Just say that we have invited a powerful immortal master here. Please ask him to go back."

Wushan Town was very eager to get rid of the tiger demon. Not only did they send people out to find an immortal master who could get rid of the demon, they also posted a high reward of ten thousand taels of silver.

Therefore, people who claim to be immortal masters often come and say they want to get rid of the demons. It seems that most of these people are swindlers and have no ability at all. After learning about the terror of the tiger demon, they will sneak away on their own.

"But, but this immortal master flew here." The servant whispered: "I saw with my own eyes that this immortal master stepped on a dragon elephant, was covered in golden light, and fell from the sky, like a Like true immortals and Buddhas.”

"What?!" Lin Shi was shocked when he heard this.

"Standing on dragon elephants, covered in golden light?!" Lin Yan stood up directly, with an expression on his face full of surprise, "It is said that even among immortal masters, those who can fly into the sky and escape from the earth, and enter and leave the Qingming are extremely powerful. The Great Immortal Master is far beyond ordinary.”

The circulation of information about monks in this world is relatively closed. Mortals have almost no channels to understand the realms of monks and can only make guesses through some rumors.

"Please, please!" Lin Shi also became excited. Such a flying immortal master was obviously much more powerful than the two immortal masters he invited.

…

News of the arrival of the new immortal master quickly spread throughout Wushan Town.

Especially since this was a great immortal master who could fly into the sky with his feet on a dragon and an elephant, the people of Wushan Town, who had already experienced several failures, were filled with hope.

None of the groups of immortal masters in the past could fly. Such a powerful immortal master would definitely be able to subdue the tiger demon in the mountains and restore the fur business in the town to normal.

Unlike the happy people of Wushan Town, the two immortal masters invited by Lin Shi earlier had gloomy expressions.

Yuelai Restaurant.

This is the best restaurant in Wushan Town.

Zhu Xiao and Kong Qing live here. They are the immortal masters that Lin Shi spent 30,000 taels of silver to hire to eliminate demons.

Of course, they have only given a deposit of 5,000 taels now, and they will not give the remaining 25,000 taels until the demon is really eliminated. This is why they are unhappy now.

"Kong Qing, what's going on?" Zhu Xiao looked out the window and said in a deep voice: "Just now I heard that Lin Shi took the initiative to welcome a flying monk? Those who can fly must at least be in the true form."

"I just went out to ask if this was the case, but judging from Lin Shi's attitude, the person who came here is definitely not a monk from the sect." Kong Qing nodded, with a gloomy face, "Lin Shi, this idiot, must have been deceived. How could there be a Taoist cultivator who comes here to slay demons? It’s ridiculous!”

"That's right, slaying demons is nothing more than harvesting some earthly gold and silver. Not to mention the Great Master, even the monks in the Sun Travel Realm will look down on it!" Zhu Xiao said: "We are the only ones who have just reached the level of imperialism. Only high-level casual cultivators can do it.”

"The so-called Feitian Immortal Master is probably a liar." Kong Qing said harshly: "He is here to steal business. It is rare for a single demon to cause trouble, and it is not very cannibalistic. It must not be at the level of the Japanese Travel Boundary. This But the best prey must not be robbed like this.”

"That's right." Zhu Xiao nodded, but he hesitated, "What if this is really a real person in the true form?"
