My Optimized Immortal Life

The headquarters of the Sanhe Gang.

Above several watchtowers, a layer of light curtain was inverted above the entire base and connected to the watchtowers, so that the watchtowers were covered with a layer of faint array patterns.

At this moment, a streak of light suddenly rushed out from the forest in front and flew quickly towards the base, looking like its butt was burned by fire.

The monks standing on the watchtower naturally noticed the streak of light, and one of the monks who had cast the spell of improving eyesight said.

"It's Lao Zhou and Bai Xu."

"Something must have happened, otherwise they wouldn't be so panicked."

"Release the formation."

As the hall master, Wang Yan was standing on the watchtower at this time, so that he could give commands at any time.

At this time, seeing Lao Zhou and the other man coming back, he immediately gave the order.

Upon hearing this, the monk who was adjusting the formation immediately injected his magic power into the restriction token in his hand, causing the formation near the watchtower to open a hole several feet in size.

In the distance, Bai Xu and the other person standing on the Qingye magic weapon saw that the formation here was opened, and immediately controlled Qingye to fly here and escape into the hole opened by the formation.

After Lao Zhou controlled Qingye to enter the formation, he stopped in front of the watchtower. He saw Wang Yan standing on the watchtower at a glance and said hurriedly.

"Master, to the southeast, there is a group of demonic beasts led by a second-level demonic python."

After he finished speaking, Wang Yan's brows furrowed and he asked.

"How many demonic beasts are there exactly? What's the cultivation level of that demonic python?"

Bai Xu replied.

"There should be dozens of demonic beasts in total. As for the specific cultivation level of that second-level demonic python..."

Bai Xu shook his head and continued.

"Old Zhou and I were several miles away from the demonic python, but it still spotted us immediately."

Wang Yan nodded, then took out a flying magic weapon and jumped up. He asked Lao Zhou and Bai Xu to stay in the watchtower while flying towards the main hall.

Old Zhou and Bai Xu looked at each other, smiled bitterly, and walked into the watchtower.

Unexpectedly, after returning, they still had to stay at the watchtower. They thought they could go back directly.

Main hall.

At this time, Luo Qingfeng, Zhu Chiting, and other hall masters were all here, discussing many matters within the gang. At this time, they were discussing the formation.

The head of the Wu Hall was an old man in his seventies, with a head full of white hair, narrow eyes, and a sneer on the corner of his mouth. He looked at Luo Qingfeng who was sitting on the high seat.

"Boss, there's no news about Wanren City yet. Do we need to send someone out to investigate?"

Luo Qingfeng glanced at the head of the Wu Hall, then turned his gaze to the other heads. Seeing that the others were silent, he answered.

"Old Xu, it's only been three days since the beast tide hit Wanren City. According to past records, the beast tide will probably continue for a few more days. There's no need to be so anxious."

The old man named Xu Yang sighed.

"Boss, I know that each beast tide takes at least five days to attack Wanren City, but the spirit stones in the gang are already stretched thin."

After he finished speaking, Luo Qingfeng, Zhu Chiting, and the head of the medicine hall all turned their eyes to Xu Yang.

The head of the medicine hall had an extremely solemn look in his eyes and he spoke slowly.

"The gang started preparing the spirit stones as soon as they received the news of the coming beast tide. Even though we have to provide some spirit stones to the gang members every day to maintain their cultivation, it shouldn't be so fast."

Xu Yang pointed to the ground and spoke.

"If it's just to supply the gang members, then it's more than enough, but now we have to consider this thing under our feet."

Xu Yang suddenly felt a little tired. Their Sanhe Gang was just a small gang. Although tens of thousands of spirit stones were transferred in and out every year, they could only save a few thousand spirit stones.

Now that a foundation-building cultivator like Chen Qing has arrived, although he earns more spirit stones, he still has to give 40% to Chen Qing. The remaining spirit stones are really not enough to maintain the second-level formation set up by Chen Qing.

Xu Yang continued.

"This second-level formation set up by Jiang Gongsheng covers hundreds of square meters of the Sanhe Gang's territory. It is supported by twelve nodes. Each node consumes dozens of spirit stones every day. With the current spirit stone reserves of the Sanhe Gang, it can only last for two more days at most."

As Xu Yang finished speaking, the entire main hall fell into silence.

Luo Qingfeng couldn't help but rub his brows. He knew that constructing a second-level formation would consume a lot of spirit stones, but he didn't expect it to be so expensive. This formation had only been opened for a few days, and it was about to empty his family's savings?

Just when Luo Qingfeng was thinking about whether to talk to Chen Qing about this matter, Wang Yan suddenly came in from outside the hall with a gloomy face.

He looked around at the people around him, and finally looked at Luo Qingfeng and said solemnly.

"Boss, a group of demonic beasts led by a second-level demonic python is approaching from the southeast."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Yang slammed the table and stood up, his face showing horror.

Luo Qingfeng immediately stood up and spoke.

"About how far it is."

Wang Yan lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said.

"We'll probably reach the Biqing River in another half an hour."

Luo Qingfeng spoke immediately after hearing this.

"Quickly arrange for the gang to check the formation, recall all patrolling monks outside, and then assign two patrol members with the fastest escape speed to monitor the group of monsters and be ready to engage at any time."

After giving some instructions, Luo Qingfeng turned his gaze to Zhu Chiting. The two looked at each other, and the latter understood. He immediately turned around and left the main hall, heading towards the back mountain to find Chen Qing.

Luo Qingfeng, Wang Yan and others walked out of the main hall and began to mobilize their gang members.

The news of the arrival of the group of monsters spread throughout the Sanhe Gang in a short time, but most cultivators did not panic. After all, with the light curtain above their heads and the great foundation-building cultivator Jiang Gongsheng, it would be easy to deal with a group of monsters with only one second-level monster python.

On the watchtower, Wang Yan flew back with Luo Qingfeng and others. He glanced at the monks guarding the watchtower and spoke.

"Old Zhou, Bai Xu, the two of you take this flying boat and go monitor that group of monsters."

Wang Yan flipped his hand and took out a flying boat from his storage bag and let it hang in the air.

Lao Zhou and Bai Xu looked at each other and saw helplessness in each other's eyes.

The two sighed, then quickly gathered up the things in their hands, jumped onto the flying boat, and quickly flew away, disappearing into the distant mountains and forests.

Luo Qingfeng stood on the watchtower, looking into the distance at the forest where Lao Zhou and Bai Xu had disappeared, with an expression of solemnity that was difficult to erase.

Even with the second-level formation and Chen Qing's support, to be honest, Luo Qingfeng did not have much confidence in whether the Sanhe Gang could resist the attacking group of monsters.

He knew very well that since even the Sanhe Gang was being attacked by a group of monsters led by a second-level monster, Wanren City was probably in great danger.

If Wanren City is really breached, then this group of monsters is most likely just the beginning. It is estimated that there will be more groups of monsters approaching the Sanhe Gang later. If this is true, then the situation of the Sanhe Gang will be somewhat bad.

Thinking of this, Luo Qingfeng turned his head and looked at the Sanhe Gang behind him with a deep gaze.
