I Cheated While Cultivating

Chapter 370: Yan Shouyi's Invitation

“`

The series of reward prompts resonated in Zhou Heng’s mind.

Rewards burst forth like rays of golden light, elevating the excitement he felt after just having defeated a powerful enemy by many degrees.

What is called a screen full of rewards?

This is it!

Especially the second item, the rewards for killing the divine sense incarnation of Jia Ye, not only doubled the basic rewards such as Treasure Box and Fortune Bag, but even the number of special privileges to choose from increased.

He could choose three out of five.

This was much stronger than the usual pick one out of three, particularly user-friendly for those with decision-making difficulties.

The rewards for killing the true body of Yan Shouyi were also pick two out of three.

Both were very good.

After some deliberation, Zhou Heng chose options ①, ④, and ⑤ from the rewards for killing the divine sense incarnation of “Jia Ye.”

Secret, Calamity, Invincible.

It wasn’t because these three options were absolutely necessary, but rather because the other two options didn’t hold much significance for the current Zhou Heng.

First, the “Manifest” privilege was very similar to the “Simulation” privilege he already possessed; there was no great need to choose it.

The other was the “Twist” privilege. Although it involves warping rules according to one’s own will, he was uncertain whether twisting certain rules would cause a series of chain reactions, leading to unpredictable consequences.

So, naturally, these two options were excluded.

As for the rewards for killing the true body of Yan Shouyi, Zhou Heng chose options ① and ③.

Decisive Kill, Breakthrough.

Of course, the Misfortune privilege was also very good, related to the domain of fate. If chosen at the right moment, it could certainly be of great use.

But after some thought, Zhou Heng still chose the more direct Decisive Kill.

No matter who you are, how strong you are, or what abilities you have, one hit, one kill!

Even though “hitting the target” is a flaw—last time he encountered this option, he gave it up for this reason—But as Zhou Heng’s cultivation realm improved and his methods strengthened, the likelihood of hitting the target naturally increased.

There’s no need to say much about Breakthrough; it was absolutely necessary.

Even if it wasn’t immediately used, it could be saved for a time of need.

While Zhou Heng was focused on choosing his rewards, the group of Celestial Men in the sky watched him with filled with curiosity.

Just what was Zhou Heng’s cultivation and realm in his previous life?!

He was too strong!

Now, merely using the contingency plans left from a previous life, he already possessed such formidable power. If it were his original self from the previous life, one could hardly imagine what kind of existence he would be.

However, there were celestial beings who wondered about another matter—

Just how many powerful entities had Zhou Heng offended in his past life, and what kind of trouble had he stirred up? Before undergoing reincarnation, he had left behind such an array of powerful contingencies for himself. It seemed a bit too thorough.

He couldn’t have been the culprit behind the end of the Ancient Mythological Era… Of course, this was just the wild speculation of a few, as the capabilities Zhou Heng had demonstrated were simply too shocking for the age.

The true form of a Tao Lord and an avatar of a portion of an Evil God’s power had been instantly crushed under the pressure of that seal, obliterating both body and spirit. They had no chance to resist, let alone flee.

The scene of “Heaven Rotating Seal below, the universe completely shattered” had been deeply etched into the minds of every celestial being present, never to be forgotten.

The feeling was truly astounding.

After a long while, the celestial beings gradually came back to their senses. They went forth to pay their respects and express gratitude to Zhou Heng, and then they all took their leave.

Although the descent of the Evil God “Mokha Jia Ye” had been thwarted, the attempt of such a powerful Evil God to descend was undoubtedly a matter of great importance to all major powers. It certainly necessitated discussion to prevent similar occurrences in the future.

Moreover, the battle had been immensely intense, capturing the attention of the entire Da Qi, with even the strongest from Southern Jin and Northern Zhou watching from a distance.

The impact was immeasurable and would definitely lead to shifts in the situation after some time. Precautions must be taken and plans made in advance.

Thus, the celestial beings naturally left in a hurry.

Only Yan Shouyi lingered. He floated down from the sky, landing gently near Zhou Heng. His face, ordinary with scholarly features, was full of amazement as he smiled and said, “Good junior brother, you are truly too strong.”

The power of the Heaven Rotating Seal had completely exceeded his understanding. Even in his recollection, a Unique Divine Weapon of the Divine First Rank did not possess such terrifying power.

Truly frightful.

This meant that Zhou Heng’s calm demeanor with that seal indicated he possessed power enough to threaten a Divine First Rank.

And yet, he was only of the Secret Six Rank, in the True Energy Realm!

“There will not be a next time,” Zhou Heng sighed deeply, looking up at the sky. Half serious, half joking, he said, “I can only use that Heaven Rotating Seal once, I won’t have such a method in the future.”

“Just this one time is enough,” Yan Shouyi laughed, then said, “If it weren’t for your powerful contingency, there would now be an additional Evil God in the world, a new Evil Sect, which would dissipate the power of the various Tao Lords and Saints, making it even more difficult to resist external Evil Gods.”

“Senior brother, regarding the Middle Ancient Era and the dark era before it, as well as the Evil Gods and external demons, I wish to understand more comprehensive information,” Zhou Heng said somberly, “Now, I have the ability to withstand a certain degree of danger.”

“…” Yan Shouyi fell silent for a moment, then nodded lightly and said, “Alright, however, I cannot guarantee the accuracy and completeness of this information.”

“Thank you, senior brother,” Zhou Heng immediately replied with great joy.

“We are brothers, why speak of thanks,” Yan Shouyi smiled, then turned his gaze towards He Mengqiu not far away, and walked over to him, bowing slightly, “Thank you, Senior He, for your assistance just now.”

“I was confident, yet it turns out I couldn’t do anything,” He Mengqiu seemed somewhat disheartened, his spirit somewhat wilted. He sighed, looking down, “I am still so useless.”

“Senior mustn’t say that,” Yan Shouyi shook his head and smiled, “Without the help of the Senior’s Divine Artifact, I would not have been able to stand off with Yu Xinzi, and my junior brother might have had trouble finding the right moment to act.”

“Is… is that so?” light flickered in He Mengqiu’s eyes, and soon enough, he came back to his senses. His spirit recovered, and he felt somewhat embarrassed, “Ah, this is embarrassing, Yan Sect Leader, you’ve seen me at a low point.”

“Senior He is frank and sincere, how could that be a joke?” Yan Shouyi explained without changing his expression and then continued, “Would Senior be willing to be a guest at Taihua Mount?”

“A guest at Taihua Mount?” He Mengqiu was shocked at the proposal, his face showing confusion.

“Ah?” Zhou Heng, upon hearing this, was also a bit bewildered and looked at Yan Shouyi with surprise. What remedy was his senior brother proposing?
