My Optimized Immortal Life

Great wilderness.

small island.

Chen Qing, who was sitting in the small lake in the center, suddenly had an epiphany. He felt that an invisible bottleneck was breaking open in the dark, and his own understanding immediately leaped to a new level.

He opened his eyes and looked at the spirit gathering array arranged around him. The array that had been considered flawless before, now he could see several unreasonable places. At the same time, several more reasonable plans popped up in his mind, which could upgrade the current second-level spirit gathering array to the third level.

This is... the realm of a third-level formation master.

Chen Qing calmed down. The feeling of breakthrough just now was somewhat similar to when he used his innate ability, but when he savored it carefully now, it was different.

He pondered for a while and reviewed all his understandings about the formation. From this high vantage point, all his previous understandings now looked a little different. He could more clearly realize the mistakes of some things and could also perceive a more reasonable route.

Chen Qing took a deep breath, slowly stood up, raised his hands, and the magic power of the Dan Jin surged, connecting with the formation arranged in the small lake. Afterwards, Chen Qing used his spiritual consciousness as a guide and magic power as a basis to rearrange the formation pattern of the entire spirit gathering formation. He even re-imprinted the core formation pattern in the formation flag.

In this way, the grade of this spirit gathering array reaches the third level.

Chen Qing looked at the spirit gathering formation in front of him. In his eyes, countless spiritual energies came from all directions and rushed into the formation, increasing the spiritual energy of the formation.

He stood there and estimated that based on the current concentration of spiritual energy, it could be raised to at least one level when the concentration of spiritual energy inside reached saturation.

In other words, the spiritual energy in this small lake can be increased to a level comparable to that of a mid-level spiritual vein.

Thinking of this, Chen Qing's face showed joy.

The spiritual energy of the mid-level spiritual vein is already sufficient to support the cultivation of the Jindan cultivator, and the spiritual liquid produced every period of time can also be much higher in quality than before.

In short, with this third-order spirit gathering formation, Chen Qing and Xu Lingxin can improve their cultivation to the late stage of Jindan in this vast wilderness.

It seems that we will have to spend a very long time in this vast wilderness.

Chen Qing thought so, but he was not worried about it. If he was alone, even with the old turtle and the cold stone python as companions, he would still be lonely. But now he has Xu Lingxin to accompany him, so he will definitely not be lonely late at night.

Shaking his head secretly, Chen Qing stepped out of the formation and came to the island.

At this time, Xu Lingxin was tinkering with her tea field, which was filled with some spiritual teas that she had brought with her when she left Qinggu. Most of them were of first-grade, with only a few second-grade tea trees. She kept a close eye on them on weekdays, and even Chen Qing was not allowed to touch them.

Chen Qing took a few looks and did not disturb Xu Lingxin. Then he turned around and left to find Lao Gui.

"Old Turtle, let's go out and look at the road."

"Got it."

The old turtle raised his head, looking a little impatient.

Ever since it followed Chen Qing, it knew what it meant to stay at home. Every day, Chen Qing was either practicing or meditating in seclusion to comprehend spells and techniques, as well as the four arts of cultivation. The originally planned exploration of the Great Wilderness Marsh was repeatedly delayed.

This really made the old turtle feel suffocated.

You have to know that no matter how old it is, it is still a third-level monster. It is a well-known monster in this vast wilderness. Normally, countless small monsters have to act according to its mood, but now they can only condescend to this small island.

Chen Qing took a step forward and sat cross-legged on the old turtle's back, causing the old turtle to stop thinking and move immediately.

Although its master never leaves the house, his cultivation level changes every day. Sometimes the spells he casts are so clear that even the old turtle cannot see through them. For example, now, the old turtle only saw Chen Qing take a step, but after this step, he himself crossed a distance of hundreds of meters and appeared on its back.

This is a bit like those legendary magical powers.

The old turtle was secretly shocked and put a little more force into his feet, making his speed even faster.

The man and the turtle left the island.

At this time, the sun was high in the sky and shining brightly, but most of the sunlight was blocked by the gray fog, making it appear transparent and making things in the wilderness vaguely visible.

Chen Qing looked at the fog in the distance, his eyes full of indifference.

After practicing for a period of time, he has also mastered the art of splitting his mind to a small degree, and the strength of his spiritual consciousness has greatly improved. Even if there is a blockage from the fog in the wilderness, his spiritual consciousness can still spread to an area of ​​ten miles in radius.

Within this ten-mile radius, he could detect any living creature, not to mention every detail.

With spiritual awareness for reconnaissance, the efficiency of the man and the turtle was naturally extremely high. In just one hour, they explored hundreds of miles to the north. They encountered many monsters on the way, but they all retreated actively because of the old turtle's third-level aura.

Of course, Chen Qing also obtained a lot of spiritual objects from heaven and earth, including many second-level spiritual medicines, which could be used to refine a lot of pills. Although they had little effect on Chen Qing and Xu Lingxin, they could also be sold after leaving the Great Wilderness Marsh.

However, this vast wilderness is truly vast and boundless. Chen Qing and the old turtle walked for hundreds of miles, but all they saw around them was still endless water, and even mountains were extremely rare.

The old turtle also said that it grew up in the Great Wilderness Swamp until today. It has been to the surrounding waters of nearly ten thousand miles more or less, but it has never seen the end of the Great Wilderness Swamp.

Hearing this, even Chen Qing couldn't help but sigh.

The records of the Great Wilderness Lake in the Song Dynasty are more detailed.

Over the past four thousand years since the founding of the Song Dynasty, many cultivators have explored deep into the Great Wilderness Swamp, including many Jindan stage cultivators.

But to this day, there is still no consensus on how big the Great Wilderness Marsh is.

All I know is that it is indeed possible to leave the State of Song and head to the Central Region through the Great Wilderness Marsh.

This is clearly recorded, because the person who left this message was a Yuanying Zhenjun. When he set out, he was at the Jindan stage, and when he returned, he had become a Zhenjun. After leaving this message, he returned and was about to return to the Central Region.

With a Yuanying Zhenjun guaranteeing it, the news could naturally be trusted, but Chen Qing didn't know where this Zhenjun had come from when he crossed the Great Wilderness Swamp.

Chen Qing was also quite helpless about this.

However, he was not worried, because he already had a place to stay in the Great Wilderness Marsh, and if nothing unexpected happened, he should stay in the Great Wilderness Marsh for nearly a hundred years until his cultivation broke through to the late stage of the Core Formation Realm.

After all, it would be a shame not to use such a good environment for cultivation.

After taking a break from thinking, Chen Qing looked at the still endless waters in front of him and gave up the idea of ​​moving forward.

"Let's go home."

He said to the old turtle below.

Upon hearing this, the old turtle immediately turned around and swam back the way he came.

The two of them walked back for dozens of miles, and suddenly, the old turtle exclaimed.

"Master, there seems to be some significant movement in the waters about ten miles ahead."

Upon hearing this, Chen Qing lowered his head and thought for a moment before speaking.

"Let's go over and take a look and join in the fun."

Hearing this, the old turtle nodded, slowed down slightly, and continued swimming forward.
