Young Man, the Waters Here Run Too Deep-Learn a Little

Chen Wang did not rush to leave Winter, nor did he continue to investigate whether there were any problems with the people in the team.

Those were all experienced veterans; if there were any real problems, they wouldn't be able to get any information out of them in just a few words. However, Chen Wang was a little more cautious.

He took out a Bronze Sword and used his spiritual power to communicate with and refine it.

The power contained within these Bronze Weapon is extremely sharp. Chen Wang had only obtained a few before, and having to search for them himself was like finding a needle in a haystack.

However, now that he has these thirty-odd bronze artifacts, his mental strength can be greatly enhanced once again.

An extremely sharp force entered Chen Wang's mind, as if it had exploded inside his head.

Now that Chen Wang's Divine Sense has grown much stronger, its influence on him is not as great as before, but that murderous aura still fills his heart.

Chen Wang carefully sensed it for a while, "In the past, I had to release my killing intent to refine a Bronze Weapon, but now it's a little better."

After refining several Bronze Weapon in succession, the murderous intent in his heart became extremely strong, making his emotions somewhat unstable.

Chen Wang quickly activated the Niwanzhen Preservation Art and discovered that this Niwanzhen Preservation Art Divine Sense, which could suppress and calm this murderous aura. Although it could not eliminate it immediately, it could at least alleviate it.

"Old Wang's Niwanzhen Preservation Art is indeed extraordinary."

Chen Wang thought to himself.

After refining several weapons, he began meditating and breathing exercises using the Niwanzhen Preservation Art.

About two hours later, Chen Wang opened his eyes, and the murderous intent in his heart had faded considerably.

Although it has not been completely resolved, this special energy can still be refined.

"I don't know the origin of these antiques, or why they possess such power?"

This thought came to Chen Wang's mind.

Before the Winter, there must have been cultivators here, regardless of what system they practiced, but they were definitely not ordinary people.

Thinking of this, Chen Wang felt a chill. "After the Winter, did all these people disappear?"

"Or... does this group of people still exist in Winter?"

Chen Wang raised an eyebrow.

Many thoughts raced through his mind, but he quickly suppressed them and focused his attention on refining these ancient weapons.

Over the past two days, Chen Wang has refined half of the ancient weapon, making the killing intent he has accumulated even more intense, almost impossible to dispel.

"I need to go out and let off some steam."

Chen Wang thought to himself.

In the past two days, Zombies outbreaks in the city have become increasingly frequent.

Riots have broken out in many places, and streets in many areas have been cordoned off.

Chen Wang left his villa, turned left and right on the street, changed his clothes, and changed his face.

"It's not necessarily true that Old Wang is monitoring Wang Wanrong, so we should still be careful."

Chen Wang changed his expression at this moment.

This unremarkable face would easily go unnoticed in a crowd.

Not only that, but as he moved, he grew taller and his physique became even more robust.

He took a long knife from his Storage Bag, wrapped it in his coat, and carried it in his hand. Then he quickly headed toward the segregated streets.

"These Zombies are highly infectious. We don't know if the Zombies that have recently appeared in the Shelter are as infectious as the Zombies in East Island Lake. We still need to be careful."

Chen Wang thought to himself.

He sneaked in quietly. Although the authorities had cordoned off the area, it was still unlikely to stop a master like Chen Wang.

After he went inside, he wandered down a street and then saw the roaming Zombies at a corner.

This is a young man dressed in soldier's uniform, dragging an Assault Rifle, wandering the streets.

There were several other soldiers not far away, with gray eyes, bite marks on their necks, and blood on their bodies.

Chen Wang frowned. "This virus started in East Island Lake and has now spread throughout the entire Winter."

To date, no one has provided a credible explanation for the origin of Zombies.

After the Winter, there has been a long period of peace, so the precautions against the spread of Zombies are now somewhat lax.

Chen Wang was more careful, spreading his Law Power throughout his body.

He flashed and appeared out of thin air behind the Zombies, shook out his clothes, and with a flash of light, chopped off the Zombies's head.

Soon, his movements attracted the attention of several Zombies around him, who pounced on him! Chen Wang noticed that one of the Zombies was still firing a gun, retaining its survival instinct.

"As expected, the virus has finally reached the Shelter."

Chen Wang thought to himself.

This is a very bad sign.

This means that Winter may see a full-blown Zombies outbreak, bringing another terrifying crisis.

A flash of light, and swish, swish, swish! The Zombies were cut in half by Chen Wang.

"Hopefully there won't be any problems within two months. Let's get Old Wang to deliver the goods first."

Chen Wang thought to himself.

The five million in cash has been paid out, but there are still the promised antiques to be delivered.

The currency value of the Winter was extremely high, equivalent to the era when a person with ten thousand yuan was considered wealthy. Five million was an absolute fortune in those times, something only a high-ranking official like Old Wang could afford.

Or perhaps they are powerful businessmen who have connections in both the legal and illegal worlds.

Chen Wang flashed past the closed isolation zone, slaying the Zombies inside and releasing the killing intent that had accumulated in his heart.

There are many Zombies in this quarantine zone, and many residents have also been infected and turned into Zombies.

Chen Wang's face was cold and stern as he swung his sword, slaying one Zombies after another.

After releasing all the murderous intent in his heart, he returned to his residence.

Three days later, he had refined all those weapons and his Divine Sense had made great progress.

He also cleared out the Zombies in the Shelter, but no one knows he did it yet.

At this moment, Chen Wang doesn't want to stand out too much, and what he wants isn't something he can obtain by racking up such achievements.

The Shelter's higher-ups were somewhat surprised, as the Zombies commotion in the Shelter had subsided and the casualties were not severe.

Chen Wang changed his appearance several times, and no one discovered his true identity.

After enhancing his Divine Sense, Chen Wang returned to the Cultivation World.

"Strengthening one's Divine Sense should be helpful for alchemy," Chen Wang thought to himself.

Wang Yue did not return at this time, so Chen Wang adjusted his state and continued to concentrate on refining pills.

However, while a stronger mental strength enhances alchemy, it also prevents the maintenance of a high success rate.

After Chen Wang returned, his first attempt to refine the Returning Spring Pill failed again.

"Damn, is this thing really that hard?"

Chen Wang's lips twitched, looking at the ruined pills with a mixture of amusement and exasperation.

"Old Wang is right. The four arts of cultivating immortality are all profound knowledge. I can do it so quickly because I have some basic knowledge of drawing talismans, but alchemy is not so easy."

Chen Wang thought to himself.

In the days that followed, he focused on alchemy and also drew talismans to improve his talisman-drawing skills.

He has accumulated less and less wealth, and now he has become obsessed with alchemy.

However, the success rate of refining the Returning Spring Pill is also getting higher and higher.

Finally, there was some reward.

"Every step of this thing has to be perfect. You have to be able to control the heat and temperature. If you ruin a batch of pills, it costs more than a dozen Spirit Stone. No wonder many people can't refine pills in a short time. This is definitely pay-to-win!"

Chen Wang's large-scale purchases of raw materials for the Returning Spring Pill Returning Spring Pill this period caused the price of the raw materials to rise somewhat.

This Returning Spring Pill is a medicine for stopping bleeding and healing wounds. However, with raw materials being consumed in large quantities, its price is rising steadily.

This caused a great deal of discussion among the people in the Market, who believed that war was about to break out between the major powers and that a storm was brewing.

Not only the Red Cloud Sect, but also several other forces sensed something unusual.

Chen Wang hadn't anticipated this.

During this period, he only inquired occasionally, and then went into seclusion to refine pills.

A month has passed, and Wang Yue still has not returned to the mountain gate.

However, Old Wang always appeared and disappeared mysteriously. Chen Wang thought that if Old Wang went out to do business and things went smoothly, he might stay out for a while.

"Judging from the women carved in his room, he must have had women not only in the Cultivation World, but also had quite a few romantic entanglements."

Chen Wang thought to himself.

During this time, he did not give up taking care of Lingtian, which was Old Wang's precious treasure.

The spirit field seeds developed by Old Wang are quite good, yielding a bountiful harvest, but for some reason, they haven't been widely adopted.

Chen Wang's days were filled with work, cultivation, and alchemy.

More than a month passed, and Wang Yue still hadn't returned. Chen Wang had a vague feeling that something was wrong.

"I hope Old Wang wasn't killed while on a mission outside."

Chen Wang was somewhat worried.

Old Wang treated him very well, and the two had a good relationship. He couldn't help but worry about Old Wang's safety.

The Cultivation World has been quite peaceful during this period. Apart from a few minor skirmishes, there haven't been any bloodshed incidents.

At least Chen Wang didn't learn any inside information.

"It's about time I made a trip to the Winter. I need to get my money back for those ancient weapons."

Chen Wang thought to himself.

So he pushed open the Bronze Gate in his mind.

In the Market the Cultivation World, in the Heavenly Craft Pavilion, three people were sitting in a private room on the second floor.

One was a burly old man, and the other was an old man dressed in a black robe, thin and with bluish-gray skin, looking like a corpse.

The two men sat at the head of the table, while a middle-aged man with disheveled hair and hawk-like eyes sat below them.

The middle-aged man was Feng Qi, who was originally the leader in charge of the attack on the Red Cloud Sect. However, with the arrival of these two Golden Core Stage experts, he lost much of his influence.

The gaunt, ashen-faced old man was called the Copper Corpse Old Ancestor.

He looked at Feng Qi, who seemed about to speak several times but hesitated, and smiled faintly, "Is there anything you want to ask?"

Feng Qi asked, "Old Ancestor, you have been here for some time now. I have been secretly contacting various forces, intending to divide up the Red Cloud Sect. I don't quite understand, when does Old Ancestor plan to make his move?"

No one knew that the Heavenly Craft Pavilion here was actually a property of the Profound Yin Sect.

These two Golden Core Stage experts stayed here after arriving, spending their days either cultivating, playing chess, or seeking companionship from young women.

There was absolutely no indication that they intended to make a move.

Feng Qi was assigned a mission to carry out this task; if he fails to complete it, the blame will fall on him.

Now that he has received condemnation from the church, he is even more eager to prove himself.

The Copper Corpse Old Ancestor smiled and said, "What's the rush... Although that fellow is nearing the end of his life, if we really fight, something unexpected might happen."

"Either we do it or we do it, we must wipe out the Red Cloud Sect completely and never let it rise again!"

The other old man was burly, his hair held back with a wooden hairpin, his clothes open to reveal his extremely muscular physique, and he looked quite unruly.

He spoke calmly:

"Xiao Feng, you're still young. The waters here are too deep for you to handle. Don't be impatient, just wait."

Feng Qi cupped his hands and said, "It was my fault for being too impatient."

But in his heart he was cursing, "You two are so detached from worldly affairs that you naturally don't care much about this matter, but if I fail to do this, I'm afraid I won't be able to withstand the punishment from the sect!"

Feng Qi sighed inwardly, and seeing this, he didn't ask any more questions, but silently served the two of them tea.

He was an extremely arrogant man, and he had disciples and subordinates.

But at this moment, in front of these two Golden Core Stage experts, he was like a respectful subordinate, not daring to overstep his bounds in the slightest, and carefully serving them every day.

No one knew what these two experts were planning.

Dao Zhen have to wait until the Old Ancestor of the Red Cloud Sect breathes his last?

Even if Golden Core Stage expert is nearing the end of their lifespan, who knows when their lifespan will end? If they live for another ten or eight years, am I just going to stay here for another ten or eight years?

After finishing his service, Feng Qi withdrew, pondering to himself, "If I wait another ten or eight years, I'll probably have already been reincarnated and able to start cultivating again!"

The Profound Yin Sect has a strict hierarchy and clear rewards and punishments. If he fails to accomplish this task, he can start preparing for his reincarnation in advance.

After he left, his subordinate, a handsome young man, bowed to him.

"Deacon Feng."

This young man was extremely handsome and intelligent. He cultivated the Soul Refining Secret Technique and was a master at the Late-Stage Qi Refining.

He is an extremely calm and meticulous person, and a very easy young man to work with.

At this moment, Feng Qi was no longer as cautious as before. He straightened his back and nodded lightly.

The young man immediately asked respectfully, "Reporting to the steward, the manpower has been arranged, and we have already contacted forces such as the Seven Stars Sect and the Joyful Union Sect. When will we make our move?"

They had been planning this for a long time, and the young man was clever and quick-witted; he personally handled many of the tasks.

"I want to know too..." Feng Qi said calmly, "What's the rush? There's a plan for this."

The young man, named Dong Leyuan, was one of Feng Qi's confidants. He lowered his voice and said, "Those families are wavering. Now that the Old Ancestor has arrived, why not take down the Red Cloud Sect in one fell swoop to prevent any unforeseen changes!"

Feng Qi immediately glared at him and said coldly, "Little Dong, you're still young. The waters here are too deep. The time isn't right yet. I'm only giving you this advice because you're one of my confidants. Alright, figure it out yourself."

Dong Leyuan's expression turned solemn, and upon hearing this, his heart tightened. "My lord has naturally made arrangements in advance and is strategizing. It was my fault for speaking out of turn!"

Feng Qi left without expression.

Dong Leyuan respectfully withdrew, his mind still replaying Feng Qi's words, "This matter is too complicated... Could there be some other Xuanji?"

"Could it be that the attack on the Red Cloud Sect was a pretense, and the real purpose was to secretly annex other sects?!"

"Or is there some secret matter, using the pretext of attacking the Red Cloud Sect to prepare to act covertly?"

"Hiss!"

The more Dong Leyuan thought about it, the more alarmed he became, realizing that he had been incredibly naive in his words.

In fact, he was also eager to make a name for himself.

It's normal for young people to want to climb the social ladder and have this kind of mentality.

"Deacon Feng is right. I am still too young and need to learn more."

Dong Leyuan thought to himself.

Brothers, today's chapter is blocked... It will be released after it passes review.
