The Legend of Qingpeng: Starting from the Costinus

After Chi Feng successfully ascended to the fifth-rank demon lord, their lives returned to their former tranquility.

Everything seems to revolve around the "Phoenix Egg" that carries their hopes. It is their unborn "little chick" and the continuation of their bloodline.

At the same time, Li Qing was quietly laying the foundation for his own promotion.

Although he had never relied on any elixir for help in cultivation, but with the Heavenly Demon Killing Immortal Strategy's technique of refining essence and qi in seven parts, the vast essence of blood and flesh absorbed from the blood demon's body could also improve his cultivation.

Coupled with the causal cultivation generously bestowed by Chi Feng and the Soul-Catcher downstairs of the Shadow Tower, after several years, he finally stepped onto the threshold of fourth-level perfection.

What made him even more delighted was that even after absorbing the causal cultivation, he still had a surplus of the causal cultivation given by the Red Phoenix after reaching the fourth level of perfection.

However, faced with this breakthrough opportunity that was within reach, Li Qing chose to be calm and cautious.

He knew very well that on the path of cultivation, a solid foundation was the only way to achieve long-term success, and haste for quick results would only make the road ahead full of thorns.

Therefore, he decided to first lay a more solid foundation for himself, and all of this began with the purification and tempering of his bloodline.

Using the Phoenix Gu, he planned to give his bloodline a thorough baptism, hoping that when he broke through to the fifth level, he would have a more solid foundation and unlimited potential.

After all, the matter of purifying bloodline should be done sooner rather than later. Only in this way can we ensure that the future path of cultivation will be broader and the potential will be more unfathomable.

So, on this day, Li Qing appeared in front of the Gu pit in the Deep Sea Dragon Palace of Longhaizhu.

His gaze pierced through the layers of water and fixed on the small, red phoenix.

This phoenix is ​​the result of his many years of hard work - Phoenix Gu.

It contains the secret of the cycle of life and death, and can allow the user to experience the pain of nirvana, reshape the body, remove the dross and retain the essence, and achieve the effect of tempering and purifying the blood.

After so many years, the Blood Demon's physical body had long lost its effectiveness, and the Red Phoenix had reached the fourth level of perfection hundreds of years ago. In the following time, Li Qing used the cornucopia to begin replicating the poisonous insects.

Although the process was long, with the unremitting efforts of many Gu Masters under the Shadow Tower, the Phoenix Gu was finally refined in his hands, shining with the light of hope.

Now, the Red Phoenix has been promoted to the fifth level, and will be able to provide him with an indestructible protection in the human world.

At this moment, the time, the place and the people are all right, and everything seems to herald the arrival of a transformation and rebirth.

Li Qing's heart was filled with unprecedented determination and expectation. This nirvana would bring him closer to his grand goal in the future.

He slowly stretched out his right hand and made a gentle move.

The small and exquisite phoenix with colorful wings seemed to sense the call of its master, and instantly transformed into a stream of hot and dazzling red light, and nimbly slipped into Li Qing's sleeve.

Immediately afterwards, Li Qing's figure flashed by like a ghost, and when he appeared again, he was already standing steadily on a magnificent ship anchored on the vast sea.

The sea breeze blew gently, carrying a slightly salty scent, but his mood was unusually calm and his eyes were firm.

He landed gently on the observation deck, where Chi Feng, dressed in a fiery red dress, looking cool and yet gentle, was quietly waiting for his return.

As time passed, thirty years had passed since Chi Feng broke through to the fifth level of cultivation. Her cultivation had long been solid, and her demeanor was even better than before.

Li Qing looked at Chi Feng, his eyes full of tenderness and trust.

He had already told his partner, who had been with him for many years, without reservation about his plan to use the precious Phoenix Gu to achieve Nirvana.

At this moment, Chi Feng was both excited and worried when she saw her husband coming back.

She walked forward quickly, her eyes gleaming with anticipation, and asked anxiously, "Husband, was the Phoenix Gu really refined successfully?"

Li Qing smiled and nodded, with a hint of joy in his tone: "Yes, the Phoenix Gu is ready, and I plan to start Nirvana immediately."

"Now that the human and demon races have put aside their past grudges and are working together, the human world is in a rare period of peace. This is the best time to achieve nirvana and pursue a higher realm."

He paused, then continued, "However, during this period, I will have to trouble Madam to protect me and ensure that everything goes smoothly."

Hearing this, Chi Feng raised a gentle smile and said coquettishly, "It's not hard to protect my husband. Your business is my business."

Li Qing felt warm in his heart, took a step forward, and gently kissed Chi Feng on the cheek, then said seriously: "In this way, I will go to the island and start using the Phoenix Gu."

Before he finished speaking, Li Qing's figure flashed again and disappeared from the spot in an instant, running straight to the side of the building ship, the island where he had carried the Longhai Pearl from the outside world to facilitate Chi Feng's delivery.

Chi Feng looked at the direction he left, and reminded him carefully: "My husband, although I have already set up the "Blood Transformation and Heaven Repairing Formation", before you achieve Nirvana, you still need to take some spiritual objects that contain vitality to ensure that you will continue to be alive."

"Thank you, ma'am, for the reminder..." Li Qing's warm and firm voice echoed in the air. His figure had completely disappeared from sight and he stepped into the island that would determine his future path.

Chi Feng stayed where she was, with anticipation and determination in her eyes. She knew that this would be a long and difficult wait, but she believed that Li Qing would be able to be reborn.

The island is shrouded in a solemn and mysterious atmosphere.

The scene before his eyes was strikingly similar to the moment when Li Qing first met Chi Feng, as if some subtle overlap in time had occurred at this moment.

The wide island has been flattened, and the huge bird's nest has disappeared. Instead, an altar so huge that it almost occupies the entire island stands tall.

It was covered with intricate and profound array patterns, which glowed with a faint light, as if containing some ancient and powerful power.

What is particularly eye-catching is that there are five blood pools on the altar, each of which emits a faint red light, appearing both eerie and solemn.

In the four blood pools on the periphery, each imprisoned a demon beast. They were all fourth-level demon kings with immortal bodies and supernatural powers, and their strength was extraordinary.

However, at this moment, the appearance of these four demon kings was extremely miserable.

Their huge upper bodies floated in the blood pool, but their bodies were covered with holes. Blood kept gushing out like a spring, flowing down their bodies into the blood pool below.

Although their eyes were still moving, showing signs of life, they were obviously subject to the powerful suppression of the "Blood-Transforming Sky-Repairing Formation" and could hardly make any moves of resistance.

Although the process of obtaining these demon kings is relatively easy, the transactions behind it are not simple.

The demon world is vast and there are many demon tribes. It is not easy to find four demon kings with immortal bodies and magical powers.

However, thanks to Li Qing's extensive demon veins among the demon clan and his deep foundation, he finally completed the task successfully.

As for how these demon kings were captured by the powerful forces in the demon clan and brought to trade with him, Li Qing did not delve into it. After all, this was not his main concern.
