I was almost eaten at the beginning, luckily I was able to transfer the negative status

You know, just having a connection won't make him stronger. He also needs to make others recognize the connection he's making up.

"This ultimate test is a test where the winner lives, and the loser will either be enslaved or die.

So if I want to achieve the ultimate victory, I have to do everything I can to get the magical power of Tao before others.

Only possessing sufficiently powerful Taoist supernatural powers is the key to determining victory or defeat; everything else is in vain.

In order to obtain the magical powers of Tao, I must increase my influence in this world, which is not an easy task.

In addition, once my influence increases, it will attract the attention of other opponents. If my strength is too weak and I am unable to suppress the attracted opponents, I will be in big trouble.

I have to say, this so-called final test is really not easy.

But no matter how difficult it is, I must first open up the situation.

With my current status as a legal advisor, I may not be able to stir up trouble in this county.

So even if I want to stir up trouble to increase my influence, I can't do it in this county. I can go to the villages and towns under the jurisdiction of Pingyang County first to stir up trouble.

The local masters in those villages and towns will definitely be afraid of my identity as a legal advisor, and this is a great opportunity for me to improve my own strength.

I can first go to those villages and towns to publicize the relationship between my natal item, the ruler, and the Avenue of Destiny, so as to improve my physical fitness.

Once my physical fitness is improved, not only can I directly improve my strength, but I can also speed up the speed of this body practicing the martial arts of this world, thereby allowing my strength to be further improved.

When I am strong enough to dominate Pingyang County, I will implement the next plan and make a big splash in Pingyang County to increase my influence.

If I can awaken a useful Taoist magical power by then, I can use Pingyang County as a base to raise the banner of rebellion against the Great Yin.

By the time my name as a rebel gets out, the influence it will bring will definitely be considerable. In this way, I will most likely continue to awaken more magical powers of the Tao, and my strength will grow like a snowball, and eventually become unstoppable enough to dominate the world.

Then, it will be easy for me to eliminate other opponents."

Think of this.

Zhou Heng couldn't help but feel a little excited deep in his heart.

Of course, it was just a slight, barely perceptible excitement. After all, all of His plans were still incomplete.

It would be fine if his plan could go as smoothly as he expected, but what if something unexpected happens in the process?

For example, if he fails to do things in the towns under the jurisdiction of Pingyang County, or if he fails to awaken the magical power of Tao after doing things successfully in Pingyang County, then all his subsequent plans will be nothing but delusions.

Without obtaining a sufficient amount of magical power from the Dao, it would be impossible for him to show up easily. Otherwise, let alone whether he could deal with other opponents who might come here following his influence, he might not even be able to deal with the natives of the dynasty in this world.

After all, although the martial arts in this world are a bit weak and can only temper the physical body, even if the physical body is tempered to the limit, it can only withstand the direct bombing of a nuclear explosion without dying. It is far inferior to the magical and powerful martial arts in the world of the living.

But even so, it is definitely not something that a mortal like him, who has not mastered the magical powers of the Tao that can achieve the power of dimensionality reduction and attack, can contend with.

Without awakening the magical power of the Tao, even if he practiced the martial arts of this world to the limit, if he finally dared to show up and raise the banner of rebellion, the Great Yin Dynasty would only need to send an army of warriors to forcibly suppress him, unless he could also gather an army of warriors to fight against him, but this was obviously not something that could be done in a short period of time, and he did not have that much time to plan these things.

After all, his main purpose in coming to this world was to kill other opponents. He planned to rebel only to increase his influence and gain more Taoist principles and divine ways to enhance his strength. This was the crux of the matter.

“It’s useless to think too much, the most urgent thing is to act according to my plan as soon as possible.

If everything goes well with the plan, then we will steadily implement it. If not, then we will try to come up with a more reliable plan."

Zhou Heng narrowed his eyes slightly and silently clenched the ruler in his hand.

Then he did not delay any longer and immediately walked out of the room quickly with the ruler in hand.

He had already made a plan. He wanted to go to the countryside and recruit a large number of people under the pretext of recruiting guards, so as to publicize the connection between his ruler and fate.

In this chaotic era with monsters roaming the wild, it was very common to recruit guards for wealthy families. It was even more normal for a legal advisor like him who had some reputation in the county to do such a thing. For example, there were several warrior guards with the cultivation level of Skin Refining Realm in his current legal advisor's house.

……

Not long after.

After reporting to the county magistrate.

Zhou Heng easily left the county town in a carriage with three Leather Refining Realm warriors as guards, and headed straight for Huangjiagou under the jurisdiction of Pingyang County.

Huangjiagou is a village close to Pingyang County. There are about a hundred households in the village. The strongest of the Huang family's main lineage has just entered the Skin Refining Realm. It is very easy to control them. It is a good place to start.

……

Less than two quarters of an hour.

Zhou Heng's carriage was respectfully led into the reception room of the Huang family's main residence by the head of the Huang family's main branch in Huangjiagou.

"Master Zhou, may I ask what instructions you have for coming to Huangjiagou?"

Huang Yuanbao, the head of the Huang family's main line, asked cautiously.

Hear the words.

Zhou Heng, who was sitting in the main seat in the reception room, first slowly picked up the teacup and took a sip.

Then he looked at Huang Yuanbao with a smile and said:

"Master Huang, please don't be nervous. I'm not here for any important matter. I just want to recruit a few good fighters from your Huangjiagou to serve as your bodyguards."

"Recruiting guards?"

Huang Yuanbao was a little puzzled:

"Apart from those dirt-foots, there are only a handful of warriors in the Nourishing Blood Realm in Huangjiagou. Why do you, sir, take a liking to them?"

"Hahaha, Patriarch Huang is wrong. I am recruiting guards for a reason.

I will not hide it from Master Huang, do you know what this ruler in my hand is?"

Zhou Heng chuckled and raised the ruler in his hand.

See this.

Huang Yuanbao immediately became even more confused. No matter whether he looked at the ruler left or right, it was just an ordinary ruler.

So, in order not to offend anyone, he had to stand up, bow respectfully and apologize.
