My Optimized Immortal Life

Wanren City.

After the city was broken, it was occupied by monsters and beasts. However, surprisingly, most of the buildings in the city were intact, except that there were no human cultivators to be seen.

In the center of Wanren City, the small hill built on the spiritual vein was now filled with monsters.

A huge amount of demonic energy gathered on the top of a mountain that was a hundred meters high, rising into the sky and transforming into a ferocious beast shape, arching over the depths hidden in the mountain.

Suddenly, a purple light rose in the city. Within a few breaths, it arrived at the foot of the mountain and transformed into a female cultivator wearing a purple robe and with an exquisite face.

Looking closely, the female cultivator was Yan Qingyan from Qiuye Island.

She is one of the two saints of the Phantom Demon Sect, one of the two sects of the Demonic Path. She has a noble status. This time she came to Wanren City, which has been occupied by monsters, on an important mission.

Yan Qingyan looked towards the top of the mountain, then suddenly took a step and walked towards the mountain.

She looked around.

Red tigers, iron-backed wolves, horned elephants... there were dozens of kinds of monsters beside her. These monsters stared at her with cold eyes, as if they would attack at the next moment, but Yan Qingyan's face was calm, and she was not shaken by this scene at all.

Even the cultivation of these monsters is not inferior to hers.

She went straight up, and a part of the huge demonic energy that had originally gathered on the top of the mountain actually separated and surrounded her.

As she continued to move forward, the demonic energy became thicker and thicker, until when she reached halfway up the mountain, the demonic energy was so thick that it completely obscured her vision.

At this moment, she suddenly stopped, because in front of her, a pair of red animal eyes the size of lanterns lit up.

At the same time, a voice came into her ears.

"The demon cultivators from the Illusion Demon Sect? What's going on?"

Upon hearing this, Yan Qingyan raised her head, looked into the beast's eyes, and suddenly spoke.

"Master Chiyan of the Lieyang Sect, Master Duanjian of the Tianyuan Sect, and Master Xiulin of the Baihua Palace, three cultivators in the late Jindan stage, I wonder if the Demon Emperor can handle them?"

After the words were spoken, disdain appeared in the pair of red animal eyes.

"But I'm in the late Jindan stage. With my cultivation level, unless three more people come..."

When the voice reached here, it suddenly paused, and then spoke again.

"I wonder if the True Lord is willing to leave?"

Yan Qingyan shook her head when she heard that, and then said.

"Demon King, since you have chosen to cooperate with us, you must show sincerity. Otherwise, there will be no place for you in the Great Wilderness Marsh."

As soon as the words fell, the pair of red beast eyes suddenly bulged, and the demonic energy surrounding Yan Qingyan suddenly became sharper. Her spiritual sense warned Yan Qingyan frantically, reminding her that this seemingly insignificant demonic energy could actually take her life at any time.

"I am the Demon King, not your dog. I have already demonstrated my sincerity. It is you who should fulfill my promise."

The voice suddenly rang out in Yan Qingyan's sea of ​​consciousness, causing her calm expression to fluctuate. Then, a demonic wind suddenly arose and surrounded her.

When Yan Qingyan opened her eyes again, she found that she had been thrown down the mountain.

Standing up, Yan Qingyan cast a dust-removing spell on herself to drive away the stains on her body, and then looked back at Xiaoshan.

The evil spirit on the mountain was as ferocious as a beast, but it made her smile.

Without saying a word, she leaped into a streak of light and left.

She came here this time just to remind the Purple-Winged Green-Scaled Peng to be more alert and not forget the contract they had signed. After all, it was the key to the plan.

…………

Sanhe Gang, in the small courtyard in the back mountain.

Xu Lingxin stood beside Chen Qing and suddenly spoke.

"Husband, why are you so anxious to condense the golden elixir now?"

Chen Qing took a deep breath and spoke.

"My magical power has long been perfected, and my body was also refined a few days ago. I have at least an 80% chance of breaking through to the Jindan stage. Most importantly, this is a great opportunity. The four sects are all focused on Wanren City. Breaking through at this time will give me some time as a buffer."

After saying that, he looked at Xu Lingxin again, reached out and took her into his arms, and whispered.

"Don't worry, I promise you, I will come back, and I will also help you achieve the Jindan stage."

After saying that, Chen Qing let go of his hands, jumped up, turned into a beam of light, and left the Sanhe Gang.

His attempt to condense the elixir was not a spur-of-the-moment decision, but the result of careful consideration.

His own cultivation had already reached the limit of foundation building, but he had been suppressing it. In fact, he could have tried to break through earlier, but was under pressure from the four sects. Now there was a great battle in Wanren City that attracted everyone's attention. If he found another place at this time to try to form a pill, he could delay the time of being discovered by the cultivators of the four sects to the greatest extent.

As for not being discovered by the cultivators of the four sects, this situation is unlikely. If he had set up the formation before the invasion of the Demonic Path, it would still be possible. However, after the invasion of the Demonic Path, it occupied half of the territory of the Song State, and the four sects of the righteous path retreated to the remaining half, causing most of the territory to be redivided.

Each area is guarded by cultivators sent by the four sects, which means that Chen Qing can only go to the remaining areas not occupied by the four sects to try to form a pill.

The areas not occupied by the four sects were also occupied by other independent cultivators. Although with Chen Qing's cultivation level, it was not impossible to force them to hand over the place for him to form a golden core, it would still cause a stir and attract the attention of the cultivators of the four sects. The appearance of an unfamiliar independent cultivator who had formed a golden core would inevitably attract the recruitment of the four sects, and then he would be pulled to the battlefield against the demons to serve as a fighting force.

But Chen Qing did not want to go to the battlefield to deal with the demonic cultivators, so condensing the elixir was not the key. What he had to consider was how to successfully escape the sight of the four sects after condensing the elixir.

Under various restrictions, Chen Qing was ultimately given only one choice.

Qiubo Lake.

This place was originally the territory of Linghua Zhenren. After Linghua brought the Three Islands Alliance into the Great Wilderness, it was divided up by the three foundation-building families that were originally subordinate to the Three Islands Alliance. These three families were the Bai family, the Luo family, and the Bi family. The highest-ranking foundation-building ancestor of these three families was only in the late foundation-building stage. When the Three Islands Alliance was still around, the three families were inconspicuous. Now that Linghua Zhenren has gone, the three families immediately united, occupied Qiubo Lake, unified a number of local forces, and faced the outside world in unison. In a short period of time, Qiubo Lake was back on track. In addition, Linghua Zhenren did not remove the third-order formation on Linghua Island, so even the four sects did not consider intervening.

Now it has become the key to Chen Qing's breakthrough. After all, a foundation-building cultivator needs a large amount of spiritual energy from heaven and earth to form a pill. If there is no support from a medium-sized or larger spiritual vein, it is impossible to break through.

Although there is a spiritual vein, it is not easy for Chen Qing to form a pill there. After all, there are several major foundation-building families guarding it.

Next he had to find a way to sneak in so that he could plan to form the elixir.
