My Optimized Immortal Life

A few days had passed since the news of the Lieyang Sect broke, and the Sanhe Gang was relatively stable. The patrol team sent by Wang Yan did not find any signs of invasion by high-level monsters within a radius of 100 miles.

There are endless mountains near the Sanhe Gang, so naturally there are many wild animals living in them. Due to certain natural terrain, there are always some places in the mountains where very small spiritual energy gathers, which give birth to some spiritual creatures with sufficient spiritual energy.

Some lucky beasts, after devouring these spiritual creatures, will be tempered by the spiritual energy and become first-stage demon beasts.

Some people can even practice all the way to the late first stage, but due to the insufficient quality of the spiritual land in the mountains, it is impossible to break through to the second stage.

Sometimes when the patrol team encountered these monsters with low cultivation, they would kill them and then have a full meal.

Sanhe Gang headquarters, back mountain.

Chen Qing stood in the courtyard, with a gray halo flowing all over his body, but he was manipulating his magic power to temper himself.

Ever since he switched to practicing high-level techniques, he gradually realized how much help a high-level technique could provide to a cultivator.

The so-called high-level refers to a technique that has at least reached the fourth level. The most intuitive benefit of this kind of technique is that it provides a way for cultivators to practice from Qi Refining to Nascent Soul Stage, even though most cultivators are unable to practice to Nascent Soul Stage or even Core Formation Stage due to lack of talent.

However, practicing high-level skills can still widen the gap between one and ordinary cultivators.

The first thing to be affected is magic power.

When practicing the Earth Fire Transformation Technique, although Chen Qing's realm had reached the late stage of foundation building, the reserves of liquid mana were only three hundred. After switching to practicing the Yin Yang Transformation Technique, his mana reserves skyrocketed, and suddenly reached the foundation building limit of three hundred and sixty drops of liquid mana.

Even the purity of mana is higher than the previous mana.

The second is the related spells.

For example, the Earth Fire Transformation Technique, even though it was a technique deduced by Chen Qing using more than a dozen second-level techniques, the spells that came with it were just a few second-level fire spells, and their power was quite good in the Foundation Establishment Period.

In the Yin-Yang Transformation Technique, just a ray of Yin-Yang reverse light allows Chen Qing to instantly kill a late-stage second-order monster. Its power is needless to say.

However, the difficulty of practicing is indeed very high. If Chen Qing did not have the talent and ability to cheat directly, it would take him at least two or three years to practice the Yin-Yang Reverse Light to the point where he could use it in a fight.

In addition, high-level exercises also contain many theories of cultivation, as well as some techniques for breaking through realms. These things may not be of much use when your cultivation level is low, but once your cultivation level is high, you will know how important these seemingly insignificant tips are.

However, no matter how good the skills are, they still require sufficient spiritual energy to support practice.

Chen Qing said in his heart.

Ever since he came to the Sanhe Gang, his magic power has not changed at all. Although his realm has reached the perfection of the late foundation building stage, there are still many areas where he can make further progress. However, due to the concentration of spiritual energy here, this step is extremely difficult.

Just like Chen Qing is now using magic power to cleanse and temper his body, if he consumes a drop of liquid magic power, he needs to meditate for at least half an hour before he can condense it again.

After killing those two second-level monsters last time, he meditated for a whole day and night just to restore his magic power.

Xu Lingxin's situation was not much different. Due to the weak spiritual energy, her cultivation had stagnated at the late stage of foundation building. However, thanks to the cold crystal that Chen Qing had given her before, although her cultivation was still at the late stage of foundation building, most of the bottlenecks to perfection had been worn away, and she only lacked the accumulation of mana.

Therefore, Xu Lingxin did not have to worry about her cultivation, and Chen Qing also asked her to study more spells and magic weapons to improve her self-defense ability.

As for the effect...

Chen Qing thought about it and felt that he could go find a group of beasts nearby for Xu Lingxin to practice with. After all, Xu Lingxin was a Foundation Establishment cultivator after all. If she didn't even have any fighting skills, wouldn't that bring shame to the title of Foundation Establishment cultivator?

Thinking of this, Chen Qing suddenly let out a light exclamation and turned his gaze towards the door.

At the same time, a voice-transmitting jade talisman also entered from outside the formation and was held in Chen Qing's palm.

As his spiritual consciousness moved, the contents of the jade talisman entered Chen Qing's sea of ​​consciousness.

"Master Chi Yan has already set out and left the mountain gate. It is estimated that he will reach Wanren City within three days."

"The situation in Wanren City has been discovered by cultivators. Its periphery has been occupied by many low-level monsters, and the interior seems to be used as a residence by that half-step fourth-level monster."

"After hearing the news that True Man Chi Yan was coming, many independent cultivators wanted to participate and rushed to Wanren City."

After reading all the information in the jade talisman, Chen Qing lowered his eyes and immersed himself in thought.

Not long after, he raised his head, leaped into a streak of light, and arrived at the Sanhe Gang's main hall in a few breaths.

At this time, Luo Qingfeng was sitting on a high seat, discussing matters concerning Wanren City with Wang Yan, Zhu Chiting and others.

Seeing Chen Qing coming, everyone immediately bowed and Luo Qingfeng stood up to give him a seat.

Chen Qing waved his hand and spoke.

"The Sanhe Gang should not be involved in the Wanren City incident. At the same time, all Sanhe Gang members outside should be recalled as much as possible. The formation will reduce them to the first level to reduce consumption."

After saying that, Chen Qing looked at Zhu Chiting again and found that the latter had actually broken through to the ninth level of Qi Refining, and his cultivation was no less than Luo Qingfeng.

Not bad.

Chen Qing thought about it and spoke again.

"The blockade by the Sanhe Gang can be lifted, and the waterway of the Biqing River can continue to be used."

Although Chen Qing is only a worshipper of the Sanhe Gang on the surface and the gang leader is still Luo Qingfeng, everyone with a discerning eye knows that the decision-making power of the entire Sanhe Gang lies in Chen Qing's hands.

This is actually quite normal. Not only do the foundation-building cultivators have a cultivation level far superior to that of the Qi-refining cultivators, but their horizons are also broader than those of ordinary casual cultivators. They know what they can and cannot touch, so they need to restrain their subordinates to avoid causing trouble.

After finishing his instructions, Chen Qing glanced at Zhu Chiting, then left the main hall, leaving Luo Qingfeng and others looking at each other in bewilderment.

After a moment, Luo Qingfeng spoke.

"Everyone, I think you've heard what Lord Jiang said, but we still need to discuss in detail what the Sanhe Gang should do next..."

While Luo Qingfeng was speaking, Zhu Chiting stood there in a daze, and only reacted when Luo Qingfeng opened his mouth.

The reason why he was stunned was that Chen Qing actually secretly sent him a message.

"Tonight at midnight, wait for me at the gate of the courtyard in the back mountain. I have something important to entrust to you."

A great foundation-building cultivator entrusted him with an important matter. Just thinking about it made Zhu Chiting feel a little panicked.

I'm afraid he will lose his life.

However, considering Chen Qing's past style, it shouldn't be the case.

Even if he really was asked to die, what use would it be for Zhu Chiting to break through to the ninth level of Qi Refining when facing a Foundation Establishment cultivator?

Zhu Chiting's mind moved, and he couldn't help but think of how Chen Qing had looked at him several times just now.

Could it be that Jiang Yuhuo discovered my breakthrough in cultivation, so he entrusted me with something important?

Thinking of this, Zhu Chiting suddenly felt as if there was a blood-red danger hanging on his head.
