These maids were all sent from the secular world to Chen Wang's island.

Some cultivators were very powerful in the mortal world; some were originally royalty, nobles, or elders of certain Lineage.

It was perfectly normal for some ordinary women to serve him.

Chen Wang's sensible and considerate demeanor prevented him from standing out from the crowd, making him far superior to the fierce and menacing monk Monk Liao Kong.

They don't come across as difficult to get along with.

The Mnemonic to cultivating immortality are incredibly precious, and these ordinary women never imagined that one day they would be bestowed with these Mnemonic without having done anything.

These people were extremely grateful.

Chen Wang not only bestowed upon them elixirs but also the methods of cultivating immortality; he was truly their benefactor.

Now that Jin'er has also cultivated the Qi-inducing and body-refining method, her complexion is much better than before, and she is radiant.

Her skin was so tender it looked like it was about to drip water.

After pouring tea for Chen Wang Chen Wang, she stood behind him and gently massaged his shoulders.

Her soft body leaned against Chen Wang's body; her figure was curvaceous, and she was definitely voluptuous in the right places.

Chen Wang leaned against it; it was extremely soft.

Jin'er blushed. Such a young and handsome man, a celestial being, was naturally captivating.

"Jin'er is extremely grateful for the immortal's teachings on True Person, and many of the sisters are also praising the True Person's virtues."

Chen Wang closed his eyes to rest, feeling those soft hands.

"Cultivate diligently. If any of you have the aptitude for cultivation, I will pass on the subsequent Cultivation Method to you. Even if you don't follow me in the future, it will still give you another means of cultivation."

Jin'er said softly, "What are you saying, True Person? All the sisters admire True Person and wish to follow True Person."

Chen Wang smiled slightly and said nothing more.

In the woman's eyes, this young man was like a god, possessing all sorts of divine abilities, and also had an extremely good temperament.

Among the Thirty-Six Islands, the immortals and other immortals all held him in high esteem.

Chen Wang's treatment of them naturally made them follow him wholeheartedly.

Chen Wang cultivated on Golden Phoenix Island, refining the Spirit Artifact in his hands and practicing the Six Harmonies Heart Refining Mantra. He lived a carefree life.

Now they have established a firm foothold in the area of these Thirty-Six Islands.

Finding a reliable Alchemist has become his top priority, and he has sent people out to inquire from various sources.

Winter

Chen Wang returned here once again.

He first appeared in an apartment, which was a Shelter for Qiongqi Mining.

Chen Wang rented the place long-term using a fake identity.

This apartment is now completely different from where he used to live.

He used to live in a villa, enjoying a life of luxury even during the resource-scarce Winter.

But now this apartment is nothing special.

Chen Wang pushed open the door and went out. After some investigation, he discovered that the Zombies outbreak was now even more intense.

Furthermore, the Church repeatedly attacked the Qiongqi Mining's Shelter.

At least two Shelter fell, and the defending troops were forced to retreat.

For ordinary people, war means death, but even when there is no war, people are dying every day in the dead of Winter.

Even if the Church were to take over, they wouldn't feel much difference, as long as the Zombies didn't rule.

The Church is actually quite powerful and has a strong military, making it arguably the fourth most powerful force in Winter.

They just kept their actions hidden, never taking any public action.

Chen Wang has his own views on the matter of Winter.

He left the Shelter and went to the Shelter occupied by the Church.

The Church occupied most of the Shelter and was very strict in its identity verification.

Church soldiers were everywhere on the streets. These soldiers had firm eyes and were well-trained. It was unknown where they had been trained before.

Despite having just experienced the baptism of gunfire, there was no unrest here.

The rioters who had been roaring through the streets had calmed down, and everything was in order.

Aside from a sense of solemnity, it wasn't much different from usual.

Although the controls were quite strict at the time, Chen Wang still managed to blend in after changing his appearance.

He learned a lot of information in a bar.

At this time, some facilities in the city were still operating normally, and the Church seemed to want to occupy the territory and use it as a base to open up new opportunities.

Moreover, Chen Wang learned from them that the Church had not been massacring civilians, and that such things were strictly prohibited.

After occupying the Shelter, they actually issued some new regulations that were beneficial to improving people's livelihoods.

They also distributed water and food to some civilians, and the feedback was quite positive.

This is actually quite easy to understand.

The Church's aim is to rule the Winter.

They have a well-trained army, a large support base, and a unified faith.

Not all the soldiers recruited were psychopathic killers. The statement that most of them joined the Adjudication Team and that the members of the Adjudication Team were all madmen is not an exaggeration.

However, some generals and Gene Warrior were originally persecuted by the Three Great Powers and encountered injustices. After their resistance failed, they finally joined the Church.

The Church has a complex composition; it is not simply a violent or terrorist organization.

Many of the experts in the Adjudication Team had died at Chen Wang's hands, so his hatred for the Church should have been even deeper.

Surprisingly, his reputation within the Church was quite good.

This is a place where the strong are respected. Although there are many madmen, they worship powerful force even more.

With Chen Wang's strength, it wouldn't be difficult for him to gather any information in this Shelter.

He spent several days in Church- run Shelter and received a great deal of information.

Yellow sand everywhere,

In the middle of a basin, a huge Shelter has been built, with steel fortresses, huge fences, and signal towers to block information. It looks very modern, but it still has that wild style, like those modified motorcycles covered with spikes. All of these belong to the rough, bloody, and savage nature of Winter.

This place feels like a military base; everything is well-organized and strictly managed.

The community includes elderly people, men, women, and children; many ordinary people live there, as well as some believers who preach and distribute food and water after their mission is complete.

Some of them were devoutly performing sacrifices, wearing long robes that enveloped their bodies, their faces filled with piety.

They work every day to repay God's gifts.

This place is not the domain of the Three Great Powers, but rather Shelter for the Church.

They have their own military strength, and when they launch a war, they naturally have support and logistical guarantees.

In the midst of a vast, Winter, all traces of human life had been overrun by Zombies.

Although they eventually reclaimed the territory and wiped out many Zombies, many places remained uninhabited, as the entire social order had been destroyed.

In many places beyond the reach of the Three Great Powers, there are actually many Church Shelter.

Some are still deep in the ruins, undetected by the Three Great Powers; those signal towers can block all detection.

At this moment, in a small room in the Shelter, the lights were dim, with only an Oil Lamp. The dim light shone on the faces of the three people, making their expressions shift and uncertain.

These three old men were dressed in long robes made of hemp, and wore straw sandals. They looked somewhat sacred.

However, the dim light shone on their faces, making their expressions shift and somewhat eerie.

Dim, oppressive, mysterious.

A young voice rang out from inside the room. "I say, it's not like we don't have lights, why do we have to use Oil Lamp?"

A young man said with a hint of helplessness.

It was a handsome face with sharp, sword-like eyebrows, full of vigor.

Then an old man's voice rang out. "Don't you think it would be more atmospheric to talk like this?"

The young man said, "We're here to discuss cooperation, not religion. There's no need to make the atmosphere so mysterious."

As soon as he finished speaking, the lights came on.

The room was simply furnished, and only three elderly people and one young man were sitting facing each other.

In the middle was a chair with an Oil Lamp lit on it. At that moment, a smiling old man picked up the Oil Lamp as if it were a birdcage and blew it out.

"You ruined the atmosphere I had just created."

These three elderly men were all high-ranking members of the Church, and they had previously discussed having Chen Wang join.

This idea is incredibly audacious.

They never expected that Chen Wang would find them, and even their base.

He was all alone.

He first contacted this smiling old man, who then immediately contacted two other friends of his.

These two were also extraordinary; they came directly here to meet without any guards.

The three of them had introduced themselves and chatted for a while. Chen Wang felt that the lighting in the room was too dim, which led to the conversation just now.

The smiling, healthy-looking old man chuckled and said, "You've got guts, daring to break into the base all by yourself."

Chen Wang remained noncommittal. "The three of you are quite bold, daring to sit face-to-face with me."

The three old men were dressed the same, but one of them was rather stern and serious. His name was Wen Zhen, and the one in the middle was Lei Guohua.

Wen Zhen said, "You were forced back by Liu Baiying and haven't shown your face for a long time. I also have fifth-level experts under my command. Do you think I'm afraid of you?"

Chen Wang smiled and said, "That's true."

The old man sitting in the middle Lei Guohua, patted the hand of the old man next to him. "Don't lie. You didn't bring any fifth-level subordinates, did you? And Liu Baiying might not be his match either."

This Liu Baiying is the fifth-tier expert who was with Qin Feng earlier. The fifth tier is a completely different concept from the fourth tier; she is ridiculously strong.

Chen Wang deliberately avoided fighting this person.

Therefore, many versions that have been circulated have made incorrect estimates of his combat strength.

A smile appeared on Wen Zhen's stern face. "I wasn't sure at first, but after I mentioned this earlier, there was a hint of amusement in his eyes. I knew then that this kid was no ordinary person."

After Wen Zhen finished speaking, his smile disappeared. He had such a rigid face, also known as a poker face.

Chen Wang said helplessly, "Maybe I'm just naturally cheerful?"

Lei Guohua said in a deep voice, "You can consider what I said earlier. I have high hopes for you."

Chen Wang took out some documents in his hand. "I just wanted to give you some inside information, but you want me to join the Church and become some kind of god's son. This is too outrageous."

Chen Wang came here hoping for a short-term collaboration with the Church.

He had information on Old Wang's side, which involved details about some high-ranking Qiongqi Mining.

He wanted to distribute these things to maximize their effectiveness, not by handing them over to the higher-ups at the Shelter, but by handing them over to the Church so that they could be used to their fullest potential.

Unexpectedly, the old man named Lei Guohua made some startling remarks.

Not only did they recruit Chen Wang into the Church, but they also promised him a high position, and what's even more outrageous is that they called him a "God's Son"! Lei Guohua said seriously, "The people of the Three Great Powers are short-sighted. They only use someone like you as a tool, and they restrict you in many ways."

"They've always been like this, and in fact, some people in the Church are too. They're afraid of young people who are too dazzling, and they're afraid of unstable factors."

"They want to wear down the passion and vigor of young people, make them more obedient, and then help them rise to the top after they've enjoyed everything."

Lei Guohua smiled.

"If the old guys don't move up, when will the young people ever have a chance to get ahead?"

Chen Wang took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, took a puff, and looked at the old man.

"Are you going to give a speech?"

His sudden remark made the other two elderly people in the room burst into laughter.

Lei Guohua was also taken aback for a moment, and then coughed.

The radiant old man, named Zhang Fengming, was laughing so hard he could barely breathe.

"Old Lei, this young man is a real handful. He's become so lawless, do you still dare to continue working for him?"

Lei Guohua hadn't heard anyone dare to speak to him like that for many years.

A smile appeared on his face as he grinned and said, "That's exactly the kind of person I want—someone who has no sense of awe, who doesn't bow to power, and who is unruly."

Chen Wang said, "There are so many madmen in the Church, and quite a few of them dare to kill their superiors. Why don't you pick a divine child from among them? You could pick twelve divine children."

Lei Guohua said with a smile, "After they saw me, none of them were as presumptuous as you, and no one dared to smoke after seeing the three of us at the same time."

The three of them held positions in the Church equivalent to Qin Feng's grandfather's position in Qiongqi Mining —they were all powerful figures in their respective fields.

It should be noted that Qin Feng is young and only a third-generation descendant, yet he already holds a high position and has a fifth-level expert following him.

A powerful leader at the Shelter also tried to curry favor with him and get his help.

At this time, the three old men could be said to be the most powerful group of people in the entire Winter.

I have never seen anyone as unrestrained and witty as Chen Wang.

"If I were to be chosen as a god, many people within the Church would disagree."

"My hands are stained with the blood of your Church members."

Chen Wang said.

Lei Guohua said, "This is an era of bloodshed. The more people you kill, the more heroic you are. You have no idea about your reputation in the Church. If you did, you would be very surprised."

"God's followers are in some ways much purer than you might imagine."

Chen Wang raised an eyebrow.
