My Optimized Immortal Life

It’s not easy to escape, Chen Qing sighed.

Although Chen Qing knew that the female cultivator might really be a ghost cultivator, after all, the female cultivators around her were all normal, but Chen Qing would still make plans for the worst to avoid being involved in the entanglement between good and evil.

As a casual cultivator with natural talents and abilities, Chen Qing is very clear about his position. He just wants to survive and thrive. Even though he is now a cultivator in the False Dan stage, he still dares not to be too high-profile.

The righteous and evil sides have divided up the Song Kingdom. Under this basic situation, the Nascent Soul cultivators of both sides will not easily take action. Therefore, the highest cultivator who can move around openly is at the Jindan stage.

Although the territory of Song State is large enough, the number of Jindan cultivators on both sides cannot cover every area. Therefore, the Jindan cultivators on both sides basically move around outside except for guarding the border.

Chen Qing didn't dare to gamble on his luck and see if there was a Jindan demon cultivator in Wanren City.

Although he was confident that he could escape from the Jindan stage demon cultivator, no one wanted to use the cultivation level of the fake dan stage to fight against a Jindan stage cultivator unless it was necessary.

There is a new Tianxianfang in Wanren City, which may be the spy of the Demonic Path. In other words, the Demonic Path is likely to take action against Wanren City, but this will inevitably take a long time.

Chen Qing knew very well that Tianxianfang alone could not find out the specific defense strength of Wanren City.

Even a casual cultivator like Chen Qing, who had been in Wanren City for quite some time, only knew that the entire city defense formation was ranked at the third level, that there were at least two false dan stage cultivators in the city, and that there might even be Jindan stage cultivators from the four sects practicing in seclusion here.

After all, it is the front line facing the Great Wilderness Swamp. In previous years, there have been records of third-level demon kings walking out of the Great Wilderness Swamp and driving a tide of beasts straight to Wanren City.

This is also the reason why Chen Qing chose to settle here.

He is now a fake elixir cultivator. Even if a third-level beast king really comes with a beast tide, he can ensure that he and Xu Lingxin can escape safely.

Walking to the entrance of Xinghua Lane and looking forward, Chen Qing suppressed his thoughts. Before he could speak, the familiar figure walking in front of him spoke.

"Senior Jiang!"

Such a familiar greeting made Chen Qing roll his eyes. Why did he always run into Li He in Xinghua Lane?

He looked forward, and besides the familiar figure of Li He, there was also a graceful figure next to Li He.

It was Jiang Ziyun from the previous four-person team. It seemed that these two had come together thanks to their last trip to Wanren Mountain.

The two men came towards him, and Chen Qing had no choice but to stand there and wait. After the two men came closer, Li He and Jiang Ziyun greeted Chen Qing at the same time.

Seeing this, Chen Qing said lightly.

"My two friends, are you going out?"

Li He heard this and replied.

"Senior, you may not know that the number of demonic beasts in Wanren Mountain has increased recently. The sect cultivators stationed here are worried about the possibility of a beast tide, so they issued an order for independent cultivators like me to go into the mountains to hunt demons."

After Li He finished speaking, Jiang Ziyun added.

"Senior Jiang, the City Lord's Mansion has set up a reward for this monster hunting trip into the mountains. I heard that a second-level monster can be exchanged for a Foundation Establishment Pill."

Chen Qing frowned slightly when he heard this and said.

"Last time, that Frost Stone Python alone caused you two so much suffering. Fellow Daoist Jiang, do you want to go through it again?"

Upon hearing this, Li He immediately spoke up to smooth things over.

"Senior, please calm down. Ziyun only wants to find a foundation-building pill for you so that you can get a glimpse of the foundation-building realm. I mean no offense."

Chen Qing snorted coldly.

"Little friend Li, we used to have some connection, but now it seems that it is mostly bad fate. It is better to avoid each other in the future."

After a pause, Chen Qing continued.

"Since you brought me this news, I'd like to offer you a final piece of advice: monster hunting is a matter of fortune and misfortune. You should be on your own."

Since Li He brought him a piece of news, Chen Qing could no longer show his displeasure. After dealing with it briefly, he turned around and left.

Seeing that Chen Qing didn't want to communicate with the two of them, Li He could only smile bitterly, clasp his hands in greeting, and watch Chen Qing leave.

Jiang Ziyun, who was standing next to him, whispered.

"Husband, did I say something wrong?"

Li He glanced at her, smiled and said.

"It's not that I said anything wrong, it's just that Senior Jiang is still resentful of the experience with the One-Faced Frost Stone Python last time."

Jiang Ziyun heard this, looked at Li He and said.

"Husband, shall we still go monster hunting?"

"go with!"

Li He said very firmly.

"We both have mid-grade spiritual roots, and it's difficult for us to break through the foundation-building stage on our own. Although I'm now a top-grade talisman master, I still don't have a way to get the foundation-building pill. This monster hunt is one of the few opportunities."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ziyun immediately hugged Li He's arm tightly and said nervously.

"Husband, then are we still going to stay with Yunxiao and the others?"

"Let's forget about it this time. I feel your husband's cultivation has improved recently and he's not far from the eighth level of Qi Refining."

With a smile, Li He took Jiang Ziyun's hand and turned to walk out of Xinghua Lane.

On the other side, Chen Qing also returned to the gate of the courtyard, pushed open the door, walked into the yard, glanced around the yard, and did not see Xu Lingxin.

but……

He walked towards the osmanthus tree again and stood in front of it. Then he saw a python head sticking out from between the branches above the trunk.

Chen Qing saw his own reflection in the pair of vertical pupils of the cold stone python. He couldn't help but smile and stretched out his hand.

Seeing this, the cold stone python slowly stretched out from the branch, climbed onto Chen Qing's hand, and clung to his forearm.

Chen Qing probed his spiritual sense into the body of the cold stone python, and after scanning around, he nodded, took out some cold marrow fluid from the spirit beast bag, and fed it to the cold stone python.

"With the cleansing of the Cold Marrow Fluid, you won't have any bottlenecks before breaking through to the second stage. As long as you provide sufficient nutrition, you will be able to grow smoothly to the second stage."

Suddenly, Chen Qing frowned.

"I don't think I've given you a name yet, what should I call you?"

After thinking about it, Chen Qing smiled.

"Forget it, naming is not something I'm suited for. Let Lingxin choose one. As for now, I'll just call you Xiaohan."

After teasing the cold stone python for a while, Chen Qing walked into the main room and took a quick look. The door of the retreat room was closed, just as he expected.

Still working so hard.

Chen Qing shook his head, turned and walked into another side room to prepare to refine the weapon.

Xu Lingxin has worked so hard, he can't give up. What's more, there is still the possible threat of the demonic path, so he has to continue to climb up.

After counting the spiritual materials in the storage bag, Chen Qing nodded and said.

"We have enough materials. Next, we will refine a protective magic weapon."

He took out the python's tail bone, threw it into the cauldron, and began to refine it.

With Chen Qing's current level of weapon refining, it is more than enough for him to refine spiritual weapons, but it still takes a long time to refine a spiritual weapon, so he has to spend the next few days in this side room.
