The Legend of Qingpeng: Starting from the Costinus

Li Qing looked at the oasis in front of him.

With the help of the spiritual eye, he effortlessly penetrated the towering mountains above the oasis and gained insight into the scenery inside.

Inside a towering mountain range in the center of the oasis, there are countless dark tunnels.

A group of monsters as tiny as ants were holding heavy pickaxes and hammering and chiseling desperately inside the mountain.

The scene before us is undoubtedly a large-scale mining project.

In a huge cave excavated inside the mountain, there is a group of winged monster birds supervising.

They have serious expressions and sharp eyes, and seem to be full of vigilance and caution about the entire excavation work.

"..."

This familiar scene made Li Qing fall into deep thought, as if he had witnessed a similar scene in the Tianyu Demon Dynasty before.

What made him sigh was that even though they had crossed different worlds, these monsters born in the Tianyu Demon Dynasty were still unable to change their tragic fate. They could only become slaves and beasts of burden, silently enduring hard labor.

Although the lives of the lower-level monsters are full of hardships and difficulties, all of this has nothing to do with Li Qing.

He came here only to find a demon beast or human to complete his demon breeding, and to understand the current situation in the human world through them.

For Li Qing, this trip to the human world has an extremely important purpose - to be promoted to the fourth level.

This matter is of great importance and cannot be taken lightly.

Therefore, the specific location of promotion must be carefully considered.

If he rashly rushed into the battlefield before being promoted, or accidentally broke into the core strongholds of the human and demon races, he would be in extremely dangerous situation.

As a breeze suddenly appeared in the cave inside the mountain, a demon bird that was loyally performing its duty inexplicably fell into a daze.

……

Not long after, Li Qing, who was thousands of miles away, slowly came back to his senses from the demon soldier's memory.

Just now, from the memory of that demon bird, Li Qing has learned the general situation of the human world.

He is currently located on a sandbar in the southwest corner of the continent.

Now the sandbar has been completely destroyed, and the surviving humans here have retreated to Qingzhou, north of the sandbar.

Qingzhou is similar to Huaizhou in that it has a vast territory, covering an area as large as two continents.

Not only did this place give birth to many outstanding sword practitioners, it also had a sect called Yanjian Sect.

This sect has a long history, dating back ten thousand years, and has always been a powerful and formidable behemoth.

In addition, many smaller sword-fighting sects also attached themselves to the Yanjian Sect.

In addition to the Yanjian Sect, the Yinluo Sect is equally famous. This sect is a giant in the demonic world that can be compared with the Guiwang Sect.

Precisely because Qingzhou's sword cultivators and magic cultivators are extremely powerful, even though the Tianfeng clan, the Mighty Bull Demon clan, and the Blue Lion clan have been attacking for six consecutive years, they have never been able to break through Qingzhou's defense line.

The two sides were caught in a protracted tug-of-war.

To the north of Qingzhou are Zhongzhou and Hezhou respectively.

The sects in these two continents also have profound heritage, some of which have even been passed down for tens of thousands of years. Their strength is stronger than that of other continents.

Both the evil and righteous sects hold the two continents in high esteem, regarding them as the undisputed leaders.

It is precisely with such strong strength that the human race of the two continents can successfully resist the fierce attacks from the Nine-tailed Fox Clan in the north, the Yinyue Wolf Clan, the Jiaolong Clan in the river, the Black Turtle Clan in the east, the Five Elements Qilin Clan and other clans.

In the west, except Huaizhou, Shuzhou, Chizhou and Qianzhou have all fallen, leaving only Huaizhou struggling to hold on.

The oasis he had just seen was just a spiritual stone vein in the sandbar.

At this moment, the demon tribe has captured the sandbar, and all the resources in the island have naturally been taken over by the demon tribe, who have also called in demon workers to mine.

Li Qing learned about the general situation on the continent from the memory of this demon soldier, and he also had ideas about the place where he would transcend the tribulation.

Now, because of the great war between the two races, both humans and demons have been concentrated in the continent, and the continent has fallen into a chaotic situation of war.

In contrast, there are no humans in the sea, and the monsters have all gone to the mainland because of the war. Now the monster forces in the sea must be extremely weak.

He wanted to find a safe place, away from the battlefield.

Therefore, the Endless Sea was the right place to overcome the tribulation.

Moreover, the Endless Sea is just as its name suggests, boundless and endless. He only needs to hide farther away and he will be safer when he is going through the tribulation.

Thinking of this, the breeze transformed by Li Qing floated silently across the sky and rushed towards the vast ocean in the south.

The eyes of a demon soldier with a dull look in the oasis mine gradually regained their spirit, and he seemed to be unaware of what was happening to him.

……

Along the way, since the battlefield was extended to the border of Qingzhou, the journey was very smooth.

Li Qing was not in a hurry this time, and he was also afraid of running into the demon tribe's stronghold, so he did not fly at full speed.

Even so, it only took less than half a day to reach the Endless Sea.

Without stopping, he kept fleeing into the distance.

Three days later.

Li Qing stood on an uninhabited island with no spiritual energy at all.

Now he had no idea where he was.

For the past three days, Li Qing has been flying along the south for safety reasons.

Although he took a short rest along the way, according to his rough estimate, the distance to the mainland was probably more than 100,000 miles away.

This place is still more than 50,000 miles away from Qianlongyuan in the South China Sea.

This distance was already very safe, and he was determined to break through the bottleneck of his cultivation here.

When the formation was successfully set up, Li Qing immediately took out a large number of spirit stones.

After completing these preparations, he transformed into his original form and began to adjust his state wholeheartedly.

As long as his physical condition recovers to its peak level, that will be the best time for him to advance!

Time flies, and more than half a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

At this moment, Li Qing has transformed into a 180-foot-tall wind roc, standing in the center of the deserted island.

In front of him were various kinds of precious spiritual objects piled up into a small hill; these were all magical medicines.

There is also a jade bottle next to it, which contains a fourth-level pill called "Demon-Breaking and Evil-Slaying Pill".

This pill was found in Duobao Pavilion. It is said that it incorporates the recipe of the human race's "Du'e Pill" and is extremely effective in breaking through the inner demon calamity.

In addition, there is a purple seal lying there quietly, on which is carved a majestic dragon, which looks lifelike.

This seal is exactly the Kuilong Seal.

Now, after half a month of adjustments, Li Qing has finally got everything ready.

His state of mind was as clear as a mirror, and his aura was flowing continuously throughout his body. He had already reached his peak state.

At this moment, he is full of confidence and determined to break through the bottleneck in one fell swoop and advance to the fourth level of cultivation!
