Cultivating Immortality in the Winter Wasteland.

Chapter 782 Cataclysmic Disaster
Chen Wang was somewhat worried about the future of the Nine Springs World, but he never expected that his worries would soon become a reality.

On this day, an urgent report came from the Cultivation Alliance: a restricted area had appeared on the southwestern border.

Within this forbidden zone, all humans were cut in half at the waist, as were the entire city and all the mountains, as if a thin line had sliced ​​them apart completely.

Not only that, any cultivators who enter this place will be instantly pulverized.

Upon learning of this strange occurrence, the disciple immediately reported it to Chen Wang.

Chen Wang thought to himself, "Could it be such a coincidence?"

He thought about it for a moment and concluded that perhaps it was just the appearance of some demonic or evil cultivators.

However, since he had come to this place, he might as well go forward and inspect it.

Chen Wang then set off for the southwestern border.

There is a large city on the southwestern border, named Shenxiu City.

Shenxiu City has a population of hundreds of thousands. It is a bustling and prosperous place, a land of outstanding people and talents, and a gathering place for elites from all walks of life.

But at this moment, a young man appeared in Shenxiu City. This young man had silver hair and was incomparably handsome.

If you look closely, you can see a pair of wings faintly behind him, making him appear sacred and beautiful.

Upon arriving at the place, the young man said with disdain, "What a murky smell. No wonder my nose felt uncomfortable earlier. It turns out there's a city nearby."

Previously, Shenxiu City was not within the restricted area, but the two places were very close. Now that the young man had arrived, he immediately felt somewhat disgusted.

There were seven or eight mischievous children on the street. Looking at the faintly visible wings of light behind the young man, a little girl asked curiously, "Big brother, do you have wings on your back?"

The little girl's eyes are clear and bright; only a child's eyes can be so pure, because they have not yet been ravaged by the world.

As she spoke, she was unconsciously drawn to the sacred wings, and then raised her chubby little hand, wanting to reach out and touch them.

A look of extreme disgust appeared in the young man's eyes.

The next moment, a burst of flames erupted, and the little girl was instantly reduced to ashes before she could even scream.

The children were stunned. A heart-wrenching sound came from afar, and the little girl's mother, a woman in her twenties, ran over in a panic.

But before she could even get close to the young man...
The woman, who had lost her young daughter, was also instantly engulfed by the fire and burned to ashes.

At this moment, someone nearby said in a cold voice, "How dare you! Who is causing trouble in Shenxiu City?"

The speaker was a young cultivator, imposing and distinguished, carrying a long sword on his back.

There were several young men and women around him, all of whom were exactly like him.

They were shocked by the young man's ruthlessness and couldn't help but get angry: "This man who slaughtered the old, weak, women and children must be a demon cultivator or an evil cultivator."

The young man with wings was named Zong Xu. He looked at the group of young men and women and sneered:
"You are really overestimating yourselves and are truly courting death."

He simply blew a breath, and the next moment,
The young cultivator who had just spoken righteously shattered instantly, turning into ashes like porcelain.

When the young men and women saw their fellow disciples die tragically in an instant, they did not show any fear. Instead, they were all filled with rage and rushed forward on their flying swords.

They were from a small local sect with only thirty to fifty members. Because their sect was not very popular, the disciples had a very deep bond with each other, and there was no sense of strict hierarchy like in a typical large sect.

With one person dead, the remaining people immediately chose to fight to the death.

However, they did not stir up any trouble in front of Zong Xu.

Zong Xu simply blew a breath, and the bodies of the group turned to ashes.

Pedestrians on the street looked at this young man who seemed like a god or a demon, and they were all somewhat afraid.

Many cultivators could no longer contain themselves and stepped forward to rebuke them.

Others activated their magical weapons and blasted them at him.

At this moment, a mocking look appeared in Zong Xu's eyes.

"I've heard that some people would throw themselves into the fire for the sake of so-called justice and rise up in resistance. I thought such people were all dead long ago. I didn't expect there to be so many in this mortal world. You are simply ignorant."

The next moment, the wings of light on his back trembled slightly.
The boundless flames spread out instantly, as if they could devour hundreds of thousands of lives in the entire Shenxiu City in an instant.

Whether they were ordinary people or cultivators, they all felt this terrifying threat at this moment.

The man simply stood there, exuding an aura of utter contempt, as if he could crush the entire world with a single thought.

At this moment, everyone was enveloped in the immense terror of life and death.

However, the next moment, the flames did not ignite. A figure descended from the sky, and with a loud bang, the earth cracked open, and debris flew everywhere.

The boundless flames were crushed back by the newcomer's violent power, enveloping only three feet around Zong Xu.

Zong Xu's wings of light trembled slightly, his eyes cold as he looked at the suddenly appearing youth and said in a deep voice, "Who are you?"

Chen Wang frowned deeply. This person's cultivation was extremely powerful, giving him a sense of unfathomable depth.

This person is definitely not a cultivator from the Nine Springs World; he must be from another world.

Chen Wang said in a deep voice, "I am Chen Wang, the leader of the Cultivation Alliance. Who are you? Why are you killing people indiscriminately here without distinguishing right from wrong? Even if you are traversing the heavens, you should not be killing the natives."

Zong Xu sneered, "What kind of bullshit alliance leader is this? He's utterly ignorant. Besides, what do you know? The heavens... this is just a lower realm."

Everyone was somewhat surprised, and the scene fell silent.

Only Zong Xu's voice rang out, sounding extremely harsh and unpleasant.

Chen Wang's expression remained unchanged, but an unnamed anger rose within him.

However, his eyebrow twitched involuntarily.
He caught a key word in Zong Xu's words—the lower realm.

"Could he be someone from the Great Flame Heaven?" This thought flashed through Chen Wang's mind.

He stared intently at Zong Xu and said in a deep voice, "You're from the Great Yan Heaven?"

Zong Xu was slightly surprised and narrowed his eyes, saying, "A lowly commoner from the lower realm actually knows about the Great Flame Heaven."

Upon hearing this arrogant tone, Chen Wang immediately confirmed the person's identity.

That's right, that's the vibe—a strong, arrogant arrogance that makes you feel like you don't even consider yourself human.

"If cultivating immortality ultimately results in an immortal like you, I'd rather not cultivate at all."

After a moment of silence, Chen Wang suddenly swore.

He took a step forward and threw a punch.

The moment the punch was thrown, the surrounding void distorted.

His fists crushed Zong Xu, sending him flying backward, smashing through the city gates, cracking the earth, and finally landing him in the wilderness.

Zong Xu managed to dissipate Chen Wang's strength, but his legs were already deeply embedded in the ground, and only his neck was sticking out, making him look extremely disheveled.

At this moment, Zong Xu's body suddenly trembled, and the ground suddenly arched up, as if there was some enormous thing underground, which was quite astonishing.

Zong Xu, who was originally calm and detached from worldly affairs, now had a lot of dust on his face, not to mention his body, which was extremely dirty.

Zong Xu said coldly, "You lowly commoner, you're asking for death!"

His wings of light trembled slightly, and two unparalleled beams of light burst forth.

Chen Wang's pupils contracted immediately. The supernatural power that had previously opened up a forbidden zone on the southwestern border must have been the work of this man.

Two beams of light burst forth, about to spread outwards. At this moment, Chen Wang shouted and pressed one hand down, instantly causing turbulent currents to surge outwards.

The palm strike collided with the divine power, but the divine power did not spread outwards, and neither did Chen Wang's palm strike.

The two supernatural powers collided in the void, shattering the void and causing a great deal of turbulent winds to spread out.

Zong Xu was somewhat surprised; this lowly commoner from the lower realm seemed to be even more powerful than he had imagined.

However, the next moment, Chen Wang took a step forward, and the Great Dao of Life and Death was activated. Zong Xu immediately felt his magical power being suppressed and his breathing becoming labored.

He cultivates the Great Dao of Metal, one of the Five Elements, specifically the Geng Metal Qi, which governs killing and is incomparably sharp.

But at this moment, he had a feeling that the Great Dao was dimming.

Zong Xu was startled and quickly realized that this must be an illusion.

"This guy's bluffing me; he must be skilled in using mental manipulation."

Zong Xu swung his hand down, but before his hand could strike, Chen Wang grabbed his wrist.

Then, Chen Wang punched Zong Xu in the nose, instantly shattering Zong Xu's high nose, which hung askew on his face.

He cried out in pain, and tears and snot instantly streamed down his face.

Chen Wang delivered another vicious knee strike, hitting Zong Xu squarely in the lower abdomen, causing Zong Xu's body to arch like a shrimp.

"Ahhhh!"

Zong Xu's face contorted even more, and he nearly soiled himself.

Chen Wang found it rather distasteful; in close combat, if the opponent was covered in excrement and urine, it would be a real headache.

At this moment, Chen Wang took a half step back and delivered a karate chop to Zong Xu's neck. With a snap, Zong Xu's neck was broken and hung diagonally across his chest.

He flew sideways to the right, crashing into a mountain peak before finally coming to a stop.

Zong Xu was still somewhat bewildered. He was in excruciating pain all over his body, and the Great Dao on his body seemed to be somewhat afraid of the Great Dao on Chen Wang's body.

Zong Xu thought to himself, "Impossible. He's just a cultivator from the lower realm. Even if he's at the same level as me, his supernatural abilities shouldn't be as refined as mine."

Zong Xu's head was spinning, and these thoughts were swirling in his mind.

But the next moment, Chen Wang appeared in front of him.

Chen Wang stepped on Zong Xu's head with one foot, and with a thud, he slammed Zong Xu's head into the ground.

Zong Xu could feel Chen Wang's feet rubbing against his face, and he immediately felt extremely humiliated.

"You fucking want to die!"

Zong Xu roared, his aura suddenly erupted, and his two wings instantly transformed into a thousand meters long, slashing fiercely at Chen Wang.

Chen Wang felt a golden light gathering in the air, slashing towards his neck.

Instead of running away, he struck out with a palm, a palm strike containing the Dao of Life and Death!
The extreme of life is death, and the extreme of death is life. The cycle of life and death instantly broke through the golden light.

Chen Wang and Zong Xu started fighting, and Zong Xu gradually became a little flustered.

Chen Wang was using the Dao of Life and Death, which was far superior to the Dao of Metal that he cultivated.

Zong Xu was horrified.

"Impossible. Even if a cultivator from the lower realm reaches the Integration stage, it's impossible for him to comprehend any great Dao, let alone the Dao of Life and Death."

Those who have comprehended the Great Dao of Life and Death are among the most prominent in the Great Yan Heaven.

How could I possibly waste my time in the lower realm?
Zong Xu was startled and was immediately suppressed by Chen Wang's violent attack.

Chen Wang seized the opportunity, ripped off the pair of light wings on his back with both hands, and said impatiently, "What are you pretending to be, you birdman?"

After saying that, he kicked Zong Xu in the face.

Zong Xu's injuries had just begun to heal when Chen Wang tore off his wings and kicked him in the face.
His entire face seemed to have been flattened by a terrifying prehistoric beast, and he flew away like a kite with a broken string.

Chen Wang put away the pair of light wings.

He had just squeezed it and found that the pair of light wings were incredibly hard, seemingly tangible objects, and he planned to take them back to study them carefully.

Seeing this, Zong Xu was horrified. Instead of feeling humiliated for losing his wings, he felt a sense of fear and immediately fled into the sky.

"Brother Dao, save me!"

He shouted, and blood gushed forth wherever he flew. The thick blood contained immense power, and the plants and trees revived after he landed.

The concentration of spiritual energy in his blood is extremely high.

Chen Wang felt a chill run down his spine as he watched the direction the man flew off to and heard his shouts.
How could they let him escape?

Chen Wang flashed and appeared in front of Zong Xu.

Zong Xu activated the Great Dao of Metal, wielding golden light to slash down, but Chen Wang blocked it, then casually severed his calf.

"Ahhhh!"

His left calf was severed, and he screamed in agony as he struggled to escape into the air.

He was also at the Integration Stage, though not as strong as Chen Wang. But he was, after all, a person from the Great Yan Heaven, and his cultivation techniques were extraordinary. He was determined to leave, and it was not easy to keep him.

Chen Wang was only there to inspect the Nine Springs World, and he didn't bring the Nine-Colored Deer or Xiao Liu with him. Otherwise, with two more helpers, he could have taken Zong Xu's head off right now.

Seeing Zong Xu fleeing into the sky, Chen Wang's murderous intent grew even stronger.

If there are still rivals lurking in the shadows, we absolutely cannot let Zong Xu leave.

Let him catch his breath before retaliating, or let him immediately launch a coordinated attack on him.

The more fiercely Chen Wang pursued, the more terrified Zong Xu became.

Just then, the sky suddenly split open, and a large eye rolled around, looking down.

After the large eye appeared, it let out a strange laugh.

"Zongxu, I said we could start harvesting, but you insisted on going to the human world. What do you say?"

There was a hint of mockery in the voice.

Zong Xu turned pale and quickly begged for mercy, saying, "Brother Dao, please don't make fun of me. Please save my life, or I'll fall victim to this man's cruelty!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the strange eye in the sky let out a grotesque laugh.

Chen Wang was flying forward when he suddenly felt a powerful force emanating from him, and he involuntarily lost control of his body.

Moreover, when Chen Wang turned his head, he discovered that many cultivators in the Nine Springs World had taken to the air.

None of them had any room to struggle.

Whether they are ordinary Qi Refiners or Foundation Establishment or Golden Core cultivators,
At this moment, they all flew up, as if they were dragged into a state of complete nothingness by some unfathomable force.

They flew uncontrollably into the sky, each one looking like a drowned person with a terrified expression.

Chen Wang was extremely surprised, then suddenly a flash of insight struck him, and he realized something terrifying.

"The reason why this world's civilization was cut off is probably because of situations similar to today."
