My Optimized Immortal Life

After asking Zheng Shuangshuang to help him find a hundred-year-old demon-transforming grass, Chen Qing left this place and rented a small house in the city.

Next, he had to collect enough materials in Wanren City and try to refine the foundation-building pill.

After all, second-level demon pills and hundred-year-old demon-transforming grass are relatively difficult to find. If the foundation-building pill is not refined here, it will be difficult to gather the materials for refining the foundation-building pill in a short period of time.

After paying two months' rent, Chen Qing received a restriction token for a small house. After finding the small house he rented, he entered it and prepared to rest for a while.

Chen Qing had just arrived in Wanren City and didn’t know much about the specific situation of the city, so he had to spend some time to learn about it.

Three days later, Chen Qing arrived at the largest shop in Wanren City.

Wanbao Pavilion.

This pavilion has five floors and is about ten feet high. It has flying eaves and pointed corners, carved beams and painted buildings. It is unique in the entire Wanren City and is very conspicuous.

Chen Qing felt that he should be able to find a second-level demon pill here.

Walking in, one saw four thick roof beams standing, supporting the entire attic. Jade curtains were hanging, and the air was filled with sandalwood. From time to time, several wandering cultivators were seen coming and going here. It was more luxurious than any place Chen Qing had been to before.

Just as Chen Qing was marveling at the layout of the place, a female cultivator came up to him and asked.

"Fellow Daoist, is there anything you would like to buy? The Wanbao Pavilion has everything, and I'm sure it can satisfy your needs."

The female cultivator spoke in a voice that was neither humble nor arrogant, but rather sonorous and powerful, full of confidence. It was obvious that she was very confident in her own shop.

Seeing this, Chen Qing smiled.

"I've long heard that the Wanbao Pavilion is home to all the treasures in the world. I came here this time to find some rare items from your pavilion."

The female cultivator smiled when she heard this.

"Brother Daoist Jiang, you're going a bit too far. I don't dare claim to own all the treasures, but the Wanbao Pavilion has all the spiritual objects except those above the third level. I wonder what Brother Daoist Jiang needs."

"Second-level demon pill, a hundred-year-old demon-transforming grass, and a second-level technique."

Upon hearing this, Chen Qing spoke.

"Second-level demon pill? Cultivation technique? Then fellow Daoist has come to the right place."

The female cultivator smiled and said.

"The items sold on the first and second floors of the Wanbao Pavilion are all first-grade items. Only on the third floor and above will second-grade spiritual items be sold. Fellow Daoist Jiang, please follow me upstairs first."

Seeing that the female cultivator looked confident, Chen Qing knew that his second-level demon pill was secure, but he didn't know the price. If it was too high, Chen Qing would not want to buy too much at once.

As for the second-level technique, this was naturally proposed by Chen Qing to supplement and perfect his Earth-Fire Transformation Technique. After all, although his Earth-Fire Transformation Technique was accumulated through several second-level techniques and was also top-notch among the second-level techniques, Chen Qing still had to consider breaking through the Jindan stage, so this technique was definitely indispensable.

While thinking, Chen Qing followed the female cultivator up the escalator to the third floor. There were fewer cultivators to be seen in the building here.

Following the female cultivator into a private room, the female cultivator said.

"Fellow Daoist Jiang, please wait here for a moment."

After saying that, the female cultivator turned around and walked out of the box, obviously going to find a second-level demon pill and martial arts technique for Chen Qing.

A moment later, the female cultivator walked out of the compartment with a storage bag, came to Chen Qing and spoke.

"Fellow Daoist Jiang, these are three early-stage second-order demon pills. Two are from the Fire Tiger, and one is from the Black Water Snake. I wonder how many you want to pre-order."

As the female cultivator spoke, she took out three jade boxes from her storage bag, placed them on the table, and slowly opened them, revealing the inner elixirs filled with demonic power.

"These are three techniques that can be practiced to the late stage of foundation building. Fellow Daoist, please take a look first."

The female cultivator took out three jade slips from her storage bag and placed them on the table.

"As for the hundred-year-old demon-transforming grass, there aren't many in stock in the Wanbao Pavilion, so I only brought two for you, fellow Daoist."

Finally, the female cultivator took out two palm-length demon-transforming grasses with blood-colored tips from her storage bag.

Seeing this, Chen Qing suddenly wanted to say only one thing.

I'll take care of it all, okay?

Although this idea is excellent, it is definitely not feasible in reality.

Not to mention whether Chen Qing can come up with so many spirit stones, even if he does, he will definitely be targeted, so it is definitely not possible to buy them all at once.

But first you still have to choose a technique.

He picked up one of the three jade slips on the table, placed it on his forehead, and then probed his spiritual consciousness into it.

Xuanyu Huaying Gong.

Those with earth and fire spiritual roots can practice to improve their magic power and strengthen their bodies. It is an excellent practice for the Qi Refining Stage. Those who practice it will be no match for those who fight against higher levels.

You are so good at blowing.

Chen Qing shook his head secretly.

It's obvious that this introduction was added by the people from Wanbao Pavilion. Who would fill the beginning of their martial arts with so much meaningless stuff?

Chen Qing then looked down, and below was the practice method of the Xuanyu Huaying Gong before the late stage of Qi Refining.

As for the content about the foundation-building period that follows, it is restricted and spiritual consciousness cannot penetrate it.

So, after putting down the last jade slip of the martial arts technique, Chen Qing rubbed his eyebrows and then said.

"Jiang wants both of the Fire Tiger's inner cores, the Demon Transformation Grass, the Mysterious Jade Huaying Gong, and the Cold Flame Art."

When the female cultivator heard this, the smile on her face became even brighter. She did a quick calculation and said.

"A total of 1,800 spirit stones, Fellow Daoist Jiang."

Chen Qing nodded, then took out the spirit stone from the storage bag and placed it on the table.

The female cultivator counted the spirit stones and after confirming that they were correct, she put all the inner elixirs, spirit materials, and jade slips on the table into a storage bag and then handed it to Chen Qing.

"Fellow Daoist Jiang should already be a cultivator at the Qi Refining Perfection level, right?"

After the female cultivator handed the storage bag to Chen Qing, she spoke again.

Chen Qing said nothing, just nodded.

Seeing this, the female cultivator continued.

"There will be a large auction held in Wanren City soon, and Foundation Establishment Pills will be for sale. Fellow Daoist, why not go and compete for a piece of it?"

Hearing this, Chen Qing's eyes lit up and he said excitedly.

"really!"

The female cultivator nodded and smiled sweetly.

"The news of the auction is known to all the cultivators in this city. You have only been here for a short time, right? You can find out by asking around."

"Okay, then Jiang will take his leave."

Chen Qing bowed, put away the storage bag, and immediately stood up and left the box.

After leaving Wanbao Pavilion, Chen Qing did not rush to inquire about the information about the auction as he seemed to be, but returned to the small house he rented.

Chen Qing was not surprised that the female cultivator knew his cultivation level. He did not hide his cultivation level, so the fluctuation of his mana at the tenth level of Qi Refining was extremely conspicuous. However, there was nothing wrong with this. After all, the tenth level of Qi Refining was already at the pinnacle of the Qi Refining stage, and cultivators in the Foundation Establishment stage would not look down on the lesser-known cultivators of the Qi Refining stage. Therefore, there was nothing to worry about.

Instead, it was the female cultivator who deliberately told him the news that the Foundation Establishment Pill would soon appear at a large auction, which seemed a bit suspicious.

Although the cultivator who has reached the perfection of Qi training is extremely eager for the foundation-building pill, this female cultivator is still a little too attentive.

Of course, it might be that Chen Qing was too suspicious, but he would definitely go to this auction. As for the Foundation Establishment Pill, although the ready-made goods were very tempting, Chen Qing had already gathered enough materials, so he had to fight for it.

Moreover, the competition for this kind of Foundation Establishment Pill that is put up for auction in the open is bound to be extremely fierce, and Chen Qing does not want to be targeted because of a Foundation Establishment Pill.
