My Optimized Immortal Life

On the third day, Chen Qing, who was already prepared, arrived at the east gate at noon. At the gate, he saw Li He and the three monks beside him at a glance.

Li He also saw him at the same time and immediately waved to him. The three people beside him also turned their eyes to Chen Qing and immediately saw Chen Qing.

Seeing this, Chen Qing walked towards them. As he walked, a light flashed in Chen Qing's eyes. The Qi-gazing technique was activated, and the cultivation levels of the three people beside Li He immediately appeared in Chen Qing's eyes.

Among the three, there were two male cultivators, both of whom were at the eighth level of Qi Refining. One wore a long robe, and the other wore a short shirt. The other was a female cultivator in a long robe at the seventh level of Qi Refining. She had a slim figure, and under her beautiful eyebrows, a pair of bright big eyes looked at Chen Qing with a bit of curiosity.

In the eyes of the three, Chen Qing looked like an old man with white hair and beard, but his aura was extremely restrained, making it impossible for them to tell his depth.

As he got closer, Li He immediately came up to him and said with a smile.

"Senior, these three are my good friends. Please allow me to introduce them to you."

After hearing Li He's words, the male cultivator in the long robe spoke first.

"My name is Yunxiao, and I'm a native of Wanren City. I have low aptitude, and even after decades of cultivation, I'm still nothing more than a casual Qi Refiner."

Seeing Yunxiao speak, Li He silently shut up and walked aside. He and Chen Qing were not very familiar with each other, so it was naturally a good thing that he didn't need to introduce them now.

Chen Qing looked at Yunxiao.

Although this person kept saying that others had poor qualifications, there was a rare hint of arrogance in his words. This was normal. Among the casual cultivators, those who could cultivate to the late stage of Qi Refining were all outstanding, and it was natural for them to be proud of themselves.

The other male cultivator in a short shirt was concise and to the point.

"Chen Xing, Qi Refining Level 8."

Hearing this, Chen Qing nodded, but a magical power fluctuation belonging to the ninth level of Qi Refining suddenly emanated from his body, which made Yunxiao and Chen Xing frown. Seeing this, Li He immediately inserted himself between the three of them and spoke to them.

"My two fellow Daoists, this is the senior who reached the ninth level of Qi Refining that I told you about. With his help, our journey into the mountains is almost certain to succeed."

Seeing Li He interrupt and help them, the two men stopped talking, but their brows were still furrowed.

As for the female cultivator, she walked up to Chen Qing and said respectfully.

"Junior Jiang Ziyun, also a casual cultivator, is honored to meet you, Senior."

Chen Qing nodded and then spoke.

"My name is Jiang Yuhuo. I am sorry for bothering you so much. I hope you three fellow Taoists will forgive me." After saying this, the fluctuations of his magic power instantly disappeared without a trace.

Chen Qing's action immediately made Yunxiao raise his eyebrows, and then he said.

"Fellow Daoist Jiang, you are too polite. This time when we go into the mountains, we will have to rely on you a lot. Let's go and prepare to go into the mountains."

After that, the four of them first left the city gate, and then Yunxiao took out a flying boat that was about ten feet long from his storage bag. He glanced at Chen Qing and said.

"Fellow Daoist Jiang, please come up as well."

Chen Qing replied yes, and then followed the four people onto the flying boat. He didn't expect that Yun Xiao, who looked unremarkable, could actually produce a flying boat.

The flying boat rose from the ground, and then, under the control of Yunxiao, flew towards the Wanren Mountain not far away. However, after taking off, Chen Qing deliberately walked to the stern of the boat, looked at the Wanren City which was gradually shrinking behind it, and then turned back to look.

Yunxiao and Chen Xing were both at the bow of the boat, shoulder to shoulder, with their heads lowered, obviously discussing something, while Li He and Jiang Ziyun were standing in the middle of the boat, which made Chen Qing shake his head secretly.

The relationship between these four people did not seem as good as he expected, and his joining did not seem to be good news for these four people. It was not known whether Li He acted on his own initiative or the four people could not find a better partner, so they had to find him, who was at the ninth level of Qi Refining.

However, if these four people knew that Chen Qing was a foundation-building cultivator, their expressions would probably become quite interesting.

Wanren Mountain is only a dozen miles away from Wanren City. Even a medium-grade flying boat can reach the mountain in a few hours. Although Yunxiao's flying boat is of high grade, it still takes an hour to reach the mountain. Therefore, the five people have to stay on the flying boat for another hour.

Chen Qing stayed at the stern of the boat, looking at the identical mountains and forests below, and couldn't help feeling a little bored.

However, what he didn't expect was that Jiang Ziyun, who was originally in the middle of the boat, suddenly walked over and stopped beside him.

Chen Qing glanced at her and saw that she looked embarrassed, so he knew that she must have something to trouble him with, so he spoke immediately.

"Fellow Daoist Jiang, please go find someone else. Although I have practiced for many years, the only thing I have worth mentioning is my cultivation. I am afraid I can't help you."

Hearing this, Jiang Ziyun was stunned. She obviously didn't expect Chen Qing to see through her thoughts immediately. Her originally tangled thoughts became ridiculous at this moment. She smiled miserably, said sorry for disturbing her, then walked away and returned to Li He's side again.

Li He naturally heard what Chen Qing said, and could only shake his head. He could only help Jiang Ziyun to this point. Whether she could ask Chen Qing for help depended on herself. At the moment, she had obviously failed.

Chen Qing didn't care about this. Even if he was in the Qi Refining Stage, a casual cultivator like Jiang Ziyun would not have anything that could impress him, not to mention that he was still a cultivator in the False Dan Realm.

Secondly, things like this involving women are usually very troublesome, just like what happened to Xu Lingxin back then. Therefore, Chen Qing was too lazy to listen to Jiang Ziyun's request.

Yunxiao and Chen Xing at the bow of the boat naturally witnessed this scene. Both of them had no expression on their faces, but there was a hint of fear in their eyes when they looked at Chen Qing.

The flying boat continued to move forward, and after a while, the front was covered by a vast mountain range.

Arrived at the Wanren Mountains.

However, this is only the outskirts of the Wanren Mountains, and it is still quite a distance away from the valley discovered by Li He and his team.

After leaving Wanren City, Chen Qing spread out his spiritual sense to explore the situation within a mile around him. However, most of the time, what appeared in his spiritual sense were only some ordinary beasts and mortals. Cultivators rarely appeared in Chen Qing's spiritual sense.

Now that they had arrived at Wanren Mountain, although it was only the outskirts, within the range of Chen Qing's spiritual consciousness, the number of wild beasts around them gradually began to increase, and from time to time, first-level monsters appeared in the range of his spiritual consciousness.

This made Chen Qing realize that he was gradually entering the Wanren Mountains occupied by monsters.

However, he was not worried at all.

If this Wanren Mountain Range can make even a fake Dan cultivator return home, then other Qi Refining cultivators basically don't even need to enter the mountain.

The flying boat continued to fly, advancing towards the deepest part of the Wanren Mountains.

Suddenly, dozens of birds and beasts as big as half a man rushed out from the nearby forest and immediately surrounded the entire flying boat.

"Oh no, this is... a bloodthirsty bird!"
