Killing to Seize the Island

Chen Wang lightly tapped his finger, and a golden light flew out from the Sword Nurturing Gourd. Whoosh! Chen Wang remained motionless, calm and collected.

The two sword lights were extremely sharp, crossing each other in the air.

Song Hei Hu's expression changed drastically. He hurriedly activated the talisman array, intending to hold out for a while before figuring out a way to withdraw.

A few breaths later, all of this man's skills were cut down by the sword, and his head was separated from his body.

The ancient sword flew back into the scabbard at Chen Wang's waist, and the golden light also returned to the Sword Nurturing Gourd.

Chen Wang nodded slightly. "This island is not bad. If we stay here for a while, we won't need to rent a house anymore."

The Killing to Seize the Island were carried out swiftly and decisively, leaving even Feng Lin stunned.

Somewhat astonishing.

"Even a Late-Stage Qi Refining expert could only struggle for a moment in front of the Foundation Establishment Realm True Person who had set up an array in advance."

Chen Wang looked around Water Cloud Island and found the scenery to be quite nice.

Only Song Hei Hu lived there, and some spiritual fields were set up there, where some spirit medicine were planted. The facilities were quite complete.

Chen Wang doesn't need to do many things himself.

Feng Lin rearranged Water Cloud Island and re-established some of the formations.

The two then settled on Water Cloud Island.

Song Hei Hu was vicious and rarely interacted with outsiders. He had no friends among the Thirty-Six Islands, which was one of the reasons Chen Wang chose him.

Otherwise, inviting friends and acquaintances will always bring a lot of trouble.

After being rearranged, Water Cloud Island looks completely different from before.

"Although the Spiritual Qi of Water Cloud Island cannot compare with that of Golden Wind Island among the Thirty-Six Islands, it is still much better than living in the Black Market."

Chen Wang.

Feng Lin wholeheartedly agreed.

"One reason is that these Thirty-Six Islands are located in remote areas with no major cultivation forces around them. Another reason is that the island lords of the Thirty-Six Islands each have their own methods and are not easily defeated by ordinary people. Therefore, this place has been occupied by many independent cultivators," Feng Lin said.

Even though she and this person were both at the Late-Stage Qi Refining, it wouldn't be easy for her to deal with Song Hei Hu.

It can only be said that Song Hei Hu was unlucky to run into Chen Wang, a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Half a month later,

Many new houses have been built on Water Cloud Island.

Some of the gruesome head decorations have been completely removed, replaced by softer furnishings.

Chen Wang went to the Black Market again and bought a first-grade array diagram from there.

This is a defensive formation diagram, and it's the complete version, without any damage.

Song Hei Hu was clearly not particularly proficient in formations, unlike Feng Lin, and he also did not have the financial resources to purchase a complete first-grade formation diagram and set it up on the island.

Chen Wang, however, bought a formation diagram, and Feng Lin set it up herself, and it quickly became quite impressive.

Water Cloud Island can now be described as completely transformed.

Chen Wang had his own plans after conquering Water Cloud Island.

Feng Lin is a good subordinate. I will be cultivating on Golden Wind Island in the future, and Water Cloud Island will be Feng Lin's residence.

When Chen Wang first mentioned this to Feng Lin, Feng Lin was immediately surprised. "What?"

She never expected Chen Wang to be so generous, giving away an island brimming with Spiritual Qi so readily.

"You can focus on your cultivation. I'll prepare for this while I find an opportunity to deal with that Monk Liao Kong. From now on, Water Cloud Island will be your residence. Consider this array diagram a gift from me."

With Chen Wang saying this, Feng Lin naturally went all out to make the arrangements.

Furthermore, their recent interactions have been quite in-depth, and Chen Wang is quite satisfied with Feng Lin. She is well-behaved, sensible, intelligent, and also knows some alchemy and formation techniques.

He is indeed a good subordinate.

Chen Wang's occupation of Water Cloud Island did not attract much attention.

Song Hei Hu was a loner and a vicious man who often went out. The area of the Thirty-Six Islands was not small, so they stayed here for half a month without anyone coming to bother them.

Chen Wang has been refining the Green Ox Sword recently, as the Show Overlord Sword and the Golden Wind Sword are now somewhat useless to him.

Although the Golden Wind Sword was easy to use thanks to the Sword Nurturing Gourd, Chen Wang's palm strike was actually no less powerful than the sword control technique.

The Green Ox Sword Green Ox Sword is different. It was forged by Wang Yue from the essence of five metals and is a true Spirit Artifact that can unleash even greater power.

After half a month of refining, Chen Wang became increasingly adept at using the Green Ox Sword, and the same was true for the Altar Suppressing Wood.

His use of the Altar Suppressing Wood is now much better than it was in Yellow Wind Mountain.

During this time, he returned to the Great Winter World, where he was a Winter wanted criminal, rising to become the number one man on the wanted list.

Many of the criminals on the wanted list were highly skilled members of the Church, and some of them were killed because of conflicts with their superiors.

In these chaotic times, such things are not uncommon.

To avoid unnecessary trouble, Chen Wang changed his appearance when he went to the Winter.

He also learned a lot of information in a Shelter, where Zombies outbreaks are becoming more and more frequent.

The Winter seemed to be shrouded in the threat of Zombies.

The situation at East Island Lake has finally escalated, and it's only gotten worse.

There's a feeling that Winter is coming.

The bar was bustling with people. It was quite far from East Island Lake, but the news still reached them.

Dim lighting, modern facilities, scantily clad women, muscular, fully armed thugs.

Chen Wang, disguised as an ordinary-looking man, sat by the window, looking at the brightly lit bar and drinking his strong liquor. "Winter is coming, even the atmosphere in the bar is a bit off."

Chen Wang, whose appearance had changed, thought to himself.

Although a long time has passed, Chen Wang remains a popular figure in casual conversation.

Even when the Church sent troops to attack the Shelter, they did not achieve such remarkable results.

Moreover, thanks to Old Wang's prior arrangements, the Church's attack was repelled, preventing the Shelter from falling.

This is how Chen Wang eliminated such a ruthless high- Shelter member of the shelter.

Moreover, two fourth-tier warriors died that day, and Chen Wang's combat strength was speculated upon and discussed by many.

He is generally considered to be above the fourth rank but below the fifth rank.

Chen Wang did not fight that fifth-tier warrior that day, and many people seriously underestimated his combat strength.

Of course, this is also the situation that Chen Wang wanted to see.

The waters of Winter deep, and Chen Wang didn't want those higher-ups to be too wary of him.

They considered him an uncontrollable danger and thus united to deal with him.

Feigning weakness to the enemy was also a tactic Chen Wang favored.

During this time, Chen Wang also learned that not only was the Shelter actively searching for him, but the Church was also openly and publicly looking for him, and had clearly expressed that it was extending an olive branch to him.

Because Chen Wang had been away from the Winter and completely out of contact during this time, the Church had put on a very effective show of support.

The purpose was also to attract Chen Wang's attention.

"The Church wants to recruit me..."

Chen Wang downed the strong liquor in his glass in one gulp, looking at the gloomy sky outside. "If this is true, then this organization is really a bit crazy."

The Church has always been determined to overthrow the rule of the Three Great Powers and become the new, the only, powerful power.

Chen Wang believed that they must have their own base and be able to evade the searches of the Three Great Powers.

Perhaps it is built within ruins from before the Winter.

Perhaps it's in an area overrun by Zombies, who knows?

In short, there are definitely a large number of people involved.

When Chen Wang first arrived in this world, the Church had already caused several Shelter to fall one after another, demonstrating its formidable military strength.

"Everything will eventually pass, and the gods will rule the world again."

Chen Wang smiled slightly.

He already had some plans in mind.

At this moment, he remained calm and composed, showing no signs of impatience.

"The resources in the Winter are quite good. Those antiques can also quickly improve one's strength and enhance one's Divine Sense. Moreover, I should also consider new things."

"However, all of this requires the protection of some power; we can't keep fighting to the death with others all the time."

"Or perhaps roam like an assassin, reaping lives."

Golden light shone in Chen Wang's eyes.

Chen Wang sat in the bar, and at least two or three women came up to him and flirted with Chen Wang.

One advantage of Winter is that women's clothing styles are closer to those before Chen Wang's time travel, especially the girls in the bars, who are dressed in revealing clothes, low-cut tops, shorts or Black Silk Stockings, and high heels, making them eye-catching.

Chen Wang left the bar and went to a secluded place.

After activating the Method Formula, a small insect quickly swam over.

"By consuming large amounts of metal to advance, although Winter has no minerals with Spiritual Qi, the quantity is still plentiful and filling."

Chen Wang glanced at the Gold Devouring Insect and smiled.

The Gold Devouring Insect, which was originally only the size of a fingernail, is now the size of a walnut, shimmering with a metallic luster, and has extremely sharp mouthparts.

It devoured a large amount of metal in the Winter area, and Chen Wang had always kept it in a free-range state.

After reaching the Foundation Establishment, one becomes even more adept at controlling Beast Taming Art, making them perfectly suited for controlling mindless insects like these.

Winter has no shortage of abandoned steel buildings and steel structures.

With such a massive foundation, the Gold Devouring Insect advanced rapidly.

Many legends have circulated during this time of Winter.

Many steel buildings have disappeared overnight, and without any sandstorms or strong winds.

This news alone has caused widespread panic.

The Gold Devouring Insect is now comparable to Late-Stage Qi Refining Demon Insect, but its advancement speed has obviously slowed down after devouring metal.

The metals here in the Winter are all ordinary metals and do not contain Spiritual Qi.

In reality, the Gold Devouring Insect needs to devour metals that contain Spiritual Qi to actually consume them.

Nowadays, the steel structures built for the Winter are ultimately becoming somewhat obsolete.

Chen Wang took out a small bag and put the Gold Devouring Insect inside.

The original small bottle was no longer suitable, so Chen Wang just bought a special bag for breeding insects from the Black Market.

It looked like a small brocade pouch, which Chen Wang was carrying in his hand.

"The Gold Devouring Insect is elusive and cannot be contained by many steel buildings. If it were placed in a military base and no one noticed it, the tanks and planes would be no match for its devouring power."

Chen Wang muttered to himself.

That day, a third-generation Qin family member escaped from him, but Chen Wang didn't rush to take action; there were still some things that needed to be stabilized.

He put the Gold Devouring Insect away and then disappeared into the night.

In the Cultivation World, on Water Cloud Island.

Chen Wang kept his secret of traveling between the two places from Feng Lin, and he was extremely careful about it.

So he always used the excuse of going out to make an excuse.

While this isn't very convenient, things will be completely different if Chen Wang acquires Golden Wind Island in the future.

During this time, Feng Lin focused on refining the magical Law Artifact in her hands.

That emerald green bracelet was extremely hard, capable of both offense and defense, but it required skill to use.

News has been circulating that the Red Cloud Sect has been completely converted into a branch of the Profound Yin Sect.

The Market was rebuilt and gradually began to attract some independent cultivators.

Chen Wang then learned that some of the independent cultivators and stall owners hadn't been harmed; they had simply been placed under the supervision of the Profound Yin Sect.

After review, there were no problems, and these people were released.

After all, there were once spies of the Red Cloud Sect in the Market.

How many people died in this process, and whether anyone was mistakenly killed, remains unknown.

Chen Wang has been diligently cultivating on Water Cloud Island during this time, while also sending Feng Lin out to gather information about Alchemist.

He had the materials to refine the Nine Revolutions Pill, but he didn't know any Alchemist.

He didn't even dare to hire some ordinary Alchemist.

When looking for a service, you should look for one with a good reputation, even if it's a bit more expensive.

However, some well-known Alchemist do not accept Spirit Stone at all. To invite them to complete their apprenticeship, you must exchange one item for another and offer something that they desire.

Therefore, this is a rather difficult matter.

Meanwhile, Chen Wang's own alchemy skills have also made some progress during this period.

Three months later, Chen Wang had mastered the method of refining the Returning Spring Pill, as well as two other basic pills. This speed was quite fast.

Of course, this is also inseparable from Feng Lin's enthusiastic guidance.

Although Feng Lin was only a novice Alchemist, her talent far surpassed that of Chen Wang. Therefore, they could verify each other's work and exchange many ideas while refining pills.

During this period, Chen Wang became more adept at refining the Altar Suppressing Wood and the Green Ox Sword.

After he consecrated the Altar Suppressing Wood, it emitted bursts of Thunder Fire.

This item is not only effective against evil spirits, but it is also extremely powerful when used on a person.

It looks like a piece of wood, but it is actually incredibly heavy, capable of dealing both Law Technique and physical damage.

On Water Cloud Island, Chen Wang was drinking tea under a tree.

He had just finished practicing the Great River Sword Art.

Now his swordsmanship has become increasingly profound, and he can faintly sense a trace of the Great River Sword Intent.

He held a small pill in his hand. After tossing it up, the Orange Cat leaped up and swallowed it, its eyes narrowing and its body stretching out.

"Meow!"

The Orange Cat meowed ingratiatingly.

There are many illustrated books about Demon Beast in the Black Market, and Chen Wang found out the origin of this Orange Cat from them.

The spirit cat can change size, is extremely fast, does not know Law Technique, and its strength is comparable to the Body Refinement Great Perfection.

Furthermore, this is a type of Demon Beast that has the potential to evolve.

Once this limit is broken, and the beast becomes Foundation Establishment Realm Demon Beast, it will grow three tails and master three kinds of Law Technique.

Chen Wang tossed out was Qi and Blood Pill, used to help the Orange Cat evolve its bloodline.

One advantage of seizing Water Cloud Island is that we gained access to Water Cloud Island resources and Song Hei Hu's wealth, enough to feed him with these Qi and Blood Pill.

Feeding spirit beasts is an extremely demanding and costly endeavor.

Chen Wang raised the spirit cat and the Gold Devouring Insect at the same time.

A piece of metal, about the size of a fist, is a special kind of Crystal Iron Ore containing Spiritual Qi. At this moment Gold Devouring Insect are crawling on it and nibbling at it.

Chen Wang currently has two spirit pets, one of which still needs to consume spirit ore to evolve.

Although he can afford it for now, both of them are bottomless pits! "I still need to make money."

Chen Wang turned his gaze to Golden Wind Island, "Liao Kong, you'd better earn more Spirit Stone!"

Thank you everyone for your support. Brothers with monthly passes, please give me some! Thank you!
