Cultivating Immortality in the Winter Wasteland.

Chapter 761 Planning
This string of golden prayer beads appears very mysterious; it is a precious treasure that has been lost in the Demon Realm.

Even after obtaining it, Demon Lord Qingzai used it a second time.

His skin was cracked all over, and his blood was boiling.

However, Chen Wang was also suppressed at this moment. Under the Buddhist beads, a compassionate and peaceful power enveloped Chen Wang, and he could not even muster any killing intent.

The magical weapon, the Sun-Shooting Divine Bow, was also completely suppressed.

At this moment, Demon Lord Qingzai took a few deep breaths and gasped for air, like a drowning fish.

Every time he activated the prayer beads, he was filled with anxiety, fearing that if something went wrong, the beads would refine him into something else.

However, it seems to be working well. Under his command, the massive army charged forward, and he quickly took out treasures from the Demon Realm to refine and heal his injuries.

The advantage of these prayer beads is that once activated, they don't need to be maintained with magical power. The disadvantage is that they can cause considerable damage to one's body.

At this moment, a vast army of demon experts charged towards Chen Wang, unleashing one magical treasure after another.

Chen Wang was affected by the prayer beads and had no time to dodge. When the magic weapon hit him, Chen Wang mobilized his power to form a shield to defend himself.

At first, he could hold them off, but these magical weapons were too fierce, and the combined might of hundreds of thousands of troops was incredibly powerful. Chen Wang's shield was also shaken to the point of collapse.

At this moment, Demon Lord Qingzai also attacked. He tore through Chen Wang's shield and struck Chen Wang hard, sending him flying.

It crashed through mountains before finally stopping.

At this moment, Demon Lord Qingzai attacked Chen Wang again, but the influence of the Buddhist beads still enveloped Chen Wang.

Chen Wang frowned, wanting to summon the Haotian Divine Sword, but under the influence of the Buddhist beads, he was unable to even use the Haotian Divine Sword.

He frowned, and seeing Demon Lord Qingzai charging towards him, he immediately joined the attack with both fists and feet.

In an instant, the battle caused the heavens and the earth to shatter!
The magical treasures and supernatural powers rained down on Chen Wang, leaving him struggling to keep up.

If this fight continues, Chen Wang will only have one option left: to flee.

After fighting with Demon Lord Qingzai for a while, Chen Wang was struck hard by Demon Lord Qingzai.

This demon lord was extremely powerful, and Chen Wang fought him fiercely, gradually finding himself at a disadvantage.

After Chen Wang was knocked away once again, he sighed inwardly, knowing that he probably couldn't defeat this Demon Lord today.

However, this area had long been deserted, and the humans had already been relocated by him, so he might as well let them occupy it, make some adjustments first, and then fight back.

After making up his mind, Chen Wang stopped fighting the Demon Lord and transformed into a streak of light, tearing through the sky.

Even the Demon Lord Qingzai dared not pursue too deeply. He suppressed Chen Wang with his Buddhist beads, and despite mobilizing hundreds of thousands of demons, he still could not capture him. This person's strength was unfathomable.

Demon Lord Qingzai raised an eyebrow and immediately sent a message to the other Demon Lords.

……

On the other side of the battlefield, Fu Qu had already beheaded a demon lord, and the army there had been decimated by her.

If it weren't for those Buddhist beads, Chen Wang would be in the same situation right now, but he was really unlucky; the power of those Buddhist beads was too overwhelming.

Fu Qu was currently fighting the remaining Feng Xuan Demon Lord, whose strength was several levels higher than Fu Qu's.

Fu Qu used the innate supernatural powers of the dragon race to deal with him, tearing the army apart.

She fought fiercely with the Demon Lord Feng Xuan, when suddenly a sharp sword light appeared behind him, piercing his shoulder. The Demon Lord Feng Xuan screamed in pain and immediately retreated.
At the same time, his supernatural power erupted, almost distorting the void behind him, and a figure was also blasted out.

This is a hot young woman with a pure and innocent appearance, yet she possesses a very calm and composed demeanor, much like a grandmaster. This is none other than Xu Yun.

Fu Qu was also somewhat surprised.
"Didn't you go to another battlefield? How come you're here?"

After Fu Qu inquired, Xu Yun said, "I only glanced at it from afar and felt something was wrong. There are at least two Demon Lords there, each stronger than me, and more than 100,000 demons. If I went up there, I would just be throwing my life away, so I simply came to help you defeat them one by one."

Xu Yun appeared very composed, or more accurately, somewhat cautious.

Fu Qu couldn't help but smile slightly after hearing this.

Now, under Chen Wang's grand strategy, the human race has migrated to the vicinity of Jianmen. They are not in a hurry to fight these demons to the death, but can fight them in a guerrilla war. Therefore, Xu Yun's choice at this time is the best.

Fu Qu said worriedly, "It's astonishing that the Demon Clan still has such strength after suffering such heavy losses earlier."

Xu Yun said, "They were able to come here from three different places and break through the void barrier, so they must have some other methods. If we don't stop these methods, the human world will face endless harassment from the demons in the future."

Fu Qu nodded.

Feng Xuan Demon Lord once again led his army to attack.

But at this moment, he suddenly received a message from Demon Lord Qingzai, his expression changed slightly, and he stopped fighting with the two of them.

Fu Qu had already expended a considerable amount of energy and was not quite sure what the Demon Lord was up to, so he did not stop him.

The demons led their people to flee north.

Feng Xuan Demon Lord quickly reunited with the other Demon Lords, and then joined forces with Qing Zai Demon Lord.

At this time, there were still four Demon Lords: Feng Xuan and Qing Zai, as well as Jiu Yan and Hei Xing.

Xu Yun had only glanced at them from afar before realizing that she couldn't defeat either of the two Demon Lords, so she turned and left without any hesitation.

The Nine-Eyed Demon Lord spoke in a booming voice, "What exactly is going on? Are there still hidden masters in the mortal realm?"

Demon Lord Qingzai revealed the divine bow in Chen Wang's hand.

The divine bow was incredibly powerful; Hou Yu was killed instantly by just one arrow shot from it, without any chance to resist.

The Black Punishment Demon Lord said in a deep voice, "It sounds like the Sun-Shooting Divine Bow. It's not unjust that Hou Yu died at its hands."

"It's not difficult to withstand this divine bow; my Chaos Umbrella can block it."

Nine-Eyed Demon Lord nodded: "If we encounter this person, we should activate the Chaos Umbrella and retrieve his Sun-Shooting Divine Bow to prevent him from committing any evil deeds."

The Black Torture Demon Lord nodded: "Don't worry."

……

Meanwhile, Chen Wang had already met with Fu Qu and Xu Yun.

Chen Wang inquired about the situation and was somewhat wary of the power of the demon race's attack.

"Last time I was ambushed and killed by the Demon Lord, the Demon Clan still dared to come, and they even have this kind of power. This is something to think about."

"We need to figure out the distribution of the demon race's power first, otherwise we'll be too passive and can only take hits."

"We also need to figure out their purpose."

Chen Wang muttered to himself at this moment.

Just as they were returning to Jianmen, the demon army had already arrived at a distance of 800 li from Jianmen.

They built a fortress here and laid out a net-like formation. The aura of the formation was so strong that even Chen Wang became somewhat alert.

The Demon Clan's fortress was built within an area of ​​800 li from Jianmen, seemingly indicating their intention to fight Jianmen to the death.

The humans near Jianmen were filled with fear. Chen Wang frowned; it seemed the demons were determined to conquer the human world this time, having built a fortress.

He ordered his disciples to mobilize the human race to migrate to the area covered by the Sword Gate formation.

On the other side, he also personally came to the front of the demon fortress.

The demon fortress was built very quickly.

After Chen Wang and his two companions flew over, several figures took flight from within the fortress.

Chen Wang raised an eyebrow. The other party was meeting with him so openly, it seemed that he was not afraid of the Sun-Shooting Divine Bow.

At this moment, the four demon lords also rode the clouds and mist, their bodies shrouded in demonic energy, facing Chen Wang and the other two from afar.

The Nine-Eyed Demon Lord calmly said, "This world is already damaged, and we have no intention of occupying it. We hope to have a peaceful relationship with you from now on."

Chen Wang was also surprised. He raised an eyebrow and said, "All is well? You came to our door to build a fortress and garrison a million troops, and you're telling me all is well?"

The Nine-Eyed Demon Lord then said sincerely, "Indeed, there are not many humans left. Such a huge waste of human life is a great pity. Why don't we make a treaty between us and agree not to use force to conquer each other for a hundred years?"

Chen Wang said coldly, "Are you joking with me?"

The fact that the demons were so peace-loving this time, instead of indiscriminately destroying everything, made Chen Wang even more wary.

The Nine-Eyed Demon Lord said, "I have come with sincerity. This broken human world is of no use to us even if we hand it over. We only want to occupy this place for a hundred years. If you agree, you can let the human race multiply and thrive during this period. Otherwise, if we fight each other, I'm afraid the human race you protect will be completely wiped out."

Seeing the murderous aura emanating from Chen Wang's face, the Nine-Eyed Demon Lord smiled and said, "Don't be angry. I have no ill intentions and am not threatening you. I am just calmly stating the facts. If all the people you are protecting die, what use will it be if you kill us all? Therefore, peace is the most important thing for both of us right now."

Chen Wang raised an eyebrow: "You think peace is something you can just decide to do?"

He prepared to unleash the Sun-Shooting Divine Bow to kill the Nine-Eyed Demon Lord, who appeared to be the leader of this invasion.

The Nine-Eyed Demon Lord said, "This is the most beneficial thing for both of us. Otherwise, if we really fight, countless people will die or be injured. What's the point?"

Chen Wang's expression changed several times, but in the end, looking at these few fearless demon lords, he did not kill them.

Since the other party already knows about the existence of the Sun-Shooting Divine Bow, yet is still so arrogant, they must have some tricks up their sleeve.

Chen Wang was not a person who only wanted to fight. He smiled and said, "A hundred-year contract, that's fine. Within a hundred years, the demon race must not kill my human race. Otherwise, this contract will be torn up immediately, and I will fight you to the death with all the strength of my race."

The Nine-Eyed Demon Lord said, "That's very good. We are both trustworthy people, so there's no need to sign a hypocritical agreement. I hope our two races can maintain peace."

Chen Wang stared at the Nine-Eyed Demon Lord and found that this person was indeed different from the other demon lords he had met before, possessing a strong leadership quality.

"Alright, I'll make a promise with you today, what's wrong with that?"

Chen Wang has been cultivating for less than a hundred years. If he had a hundred years, he would have already broken through to the Integration stage and could kill them in the blink of an eye.

Today is not a good day for fighting, so Chen Wang can only temporarily feign compliance with the enemy.

Moreover, Chen Wang sensed that what the Demon Lord said seemed to be true; he genuinely didn't want to cause a major conflict.

"Were the pro-war faction the ones who came last time, and the pro-peace faction this time? No, there must be a conspiracy."

Chen Wang muttered to himself, many thoughts racing through his mind.

The demons indeed remained inside the fortress and did not come out again.

.........

For several days in a row, Chen Wang sent people to investigate, but they found nothing wrong. The demon lords also stayed obediently inside the fortress.

"Why does it seem like they're the ones resisting our invasion? They've even come all the way to the human world to build a fortress. What are their true intentions?"

Chen Wang frowned.

He wanted to sneak into the fortress, but the fortress's formation was already complete, making it extremely difficult for him to infiltrate without alerting everyone, even with his cultivation level.

Chen Wang did not act rashly, nor was he in a hurry.

"What the demons are doing is exactly what I wanted. The human race can no longer stay here; they must be migrated to other worlds."

Chen Wang plans to relocate them to the martial arts world.

The martial arts world has been peaceful for many years after the turmoil caused by demons and monsters.

Moreover, this is different from the world of Longjiang, Mingzhou, and Lindong, but at least the culture is similar, so it won't feel too out of place.

Chen Wang had no experience in leading such a large-scale time travel mission, and this was his first time doing it.

He first had a designated area within the martial arts world, and then gradually relocated these people there.

He originally intended to preserve these human seeds within the human realm, but the threat of the demon race still exists, so this was a last resort.

It is hoped that these humans in the mortal realm can thrive and truly recover in the martial arts world.

For two months straight, Chen Wang worked day and night to relocate the entire human race, even neglecting the Red Dust Refining Heart project in Mingzhou.

He led these humans through hardships to reach the world of martial arts.

Chen Wang couldn't help but feel a little emotional looking at these ordinary humans.

"This is the last surviving race after the destruction of this world. I must preserve these sparks of life," Chen Wang muttered to himself.

In the eyes of these people, Chen Wang was like a guardian angel.

Chen Wang moved them here, and from the outside it looked like he had just moved them into Jianmen and hidden them away.

The demons had remained silent for some time, which piqued Chen Wang's curiosity.

However, since the human race had already migrated away, Chen Wang had become much bolder.

He gradually began to relocate the disciples of the Sword Sect to the martial arts world, turning the entire Sword Sect into an empty city.

Chen Wang had no faith in the so-called century-old contract. He wondered what the demons were up to. Things seemed calm on the surface, but they were probably up to something behind the scenes.

After doing all this, Chen Wang felt that his state of mind had changed, but he couldn't quite put his finger on what exactly caused the change.

Apart from some puppets left behind by Chen Wang that were still putting on a show, there were no people or cultivators left in the entire Sword Sect; they had all migrated away.

Chen Wang had exhausted almost all his energy during this period, and did not go to the demon race first. After settling the humans in the martial arts world, he began to go into seclusion to recuperate.

.........

On the other side, the demons have already sent out countless spies across the sky. This is extremely important to them, even more meaningful than occupying this realm.

This world is already broken; what's the point of occupying it?
If they were to engage in a decisive battle with Chen Wang, not to mention how many people would die or what the outcome would be, they would have no time to explore this world.

Therefore, after discussion among the group, the Nine-Eyed Demon Lord took the lead in establishing a contract with Chen Wang, which also gave them time to focus on finding the most precious source of Qi in this world.

"According to records, if one can occupy the source energy of this world, it is very likely that one can directly break through to the Integration Realm, or even a higher realm in the future."

"Compared to this, everything else can be given up."

The Nine-Eyed Demon Lord's gaze was intense.
