My Optimized Immortal Life

In the following time, Chen Qing and the old turtle visited the nests of several big monsters and found many good things from their nests.

The spiritual objects that can stay in the lair of the third-level monster are basically the third-level spiritual objects, most of which are rare spiritual materials, such as Xuanling Iron.

Although these spiritual materials are rare, they are of little use to Chen Qing. They can only be used to refine magic weapons, or refined into the Three Spirits Mysterious Fire Fan to improve its grade, making it easier for it to transform into a fourth-grade spiritual treasure in the future.

After looting the nests of several great monsters, Chen Qing was not very satisfied with what he got. However, he also knew that the really good things basically went into the stomachs of these great monsters, or like the Yuhua Fruit, it took a thousand years to bear fruit.

Although the harvest was average, at least it didn't take much effort, so Chen Qing could barely accept it.

However, when they searched the lair of the last big monster, they got something different.

This is……

As soon as he entered the lair of this big monster, Chen Qing clearly felt that the concentration of spiritual energy here had increased a lot, which surprised Chen Qing. After all, it goes without saying what it means that the lair of a big monster can have more concentrated spiritual energy than other places.

Sure enough, it was a spirit stone vein.

When Chen Qing and the old turtle came to the depths of the nest, they immediately saw the transparent and clear spirit stone vein exposed.

The old turtle was also very surprised when he saw this.

"Master, this spiritual stone vein looks quite large, and it contains abundant spiritual energy. It seems that the old monster did not exploit too much of the spiritual energy in this vein."

It said so, and Chen Qing nodded after listening. Then he saw Chen Qing walked forward, stretched out his hand and touched the storage bag. Several formation flags flew out of it and were inserted directly next to the spirit vein.

Chen Qing naturally couldn't move this spirit stone vein away. Even though his cultivation had reached the late stage of Jindan and he could easily extract it from the earth vein, Chen Qing didn't have a storage bag that could hold such a large spirit vein. Therefore, he could only use the formation to extract the top-grade spirit stones from the spirit stone vein, bring them back to the island, and integrate them into the spirit vein on the island.

When the old turtle saw Chen Qing setting up the formation, he immediately walked away to make room for Chen Qing. At the same time, he was also looking for some inconspicuous spiritual creatures that might be left in the monster's lair.

Chen Qing looked at the spirit stone vein in front of him, with a gleam of light in his eyes. His Qi-gazing technique was activated, and the earth veins under the spirit stone veins suddenly became clear. At the same time, he also activated his magic power to connect the formation. The formation pattern spread into the void, wrapping the spirit stone veins and separating them from the connected earth veins.

Afterwards, Chen Qing used his spiritual consciousness to penetrate into the formation, and with the help of his magic power, he gathered all the spiritual energy in the spirit stone veins and concentrated it in the center of the veins. Then, he used the power of the formation to extract the top-grade spirit stones from it.

The whole process is actually not complicated. It just requires sufficiently precise control to gather all the spiritual energy scattered throughout the spirit stone vein, gather it into the top-grade spirit stone, and then refine it. If the spiritual energy is not gathered, then the refined spirit stone will not be the top-grade spirit stone, but an ordinary spirit stone.

Refining is extremely time-consuming. It is easy to say that the spiritual energy should be channeled into the spirit stone, but in fact it is a great test of the cultivator's control over his magic power. Fortunately, Chen Qing believes that his control over his magic power is still good, so he does not feel it is difficult to refine it at this moment.

Time passed slowly, and top-grade spirit stones continued to emerge from the spirit vein and were collected by Chen Qing into his storage bag. As a result, the spirit vein in front of him gradually dimmed.

Because he didn't know when the big monster would come back, Chen Qing only refined it for about three hours and produced nearly thirty top-grade spirit stones. He then removed the formation and prepared to run away with the old turtle.

Looking at the spirit stone vein whose light was now much dimmer than before and whose spiritual energy was more than half thinner, the old turtle also admired Chen Qing a little.

Although this spiritual stone vein has not been destroyed, it can no longer meet the cultivation needs of the third-level monster. To the monster, it is the same as being destroyed.

At this time, Chen Qing was looking at the top-grade spirit stones in the storage bag, and couldn't help showing a look of satisfaction.

He counted them and found that there were a total of twenty-eight top-grade spirit stones. This was already a considerable number. After taking them back, he would refine them into the spiritual veins of the island to make the spiritual energy on the island thicker.

However, as soon as the man and the turtle left the cave, Chen Qing and the old turtle's faces darkened at the same time. The reason was simple: the real owner had returned home.

At this time, a few hundred meters in front of the man and the turtle, a fish monster that was at least ten feet in size was looking at them. The huge dead fish's eyes revealed a strong anger. Obviously, they were caught stealing the house by the real owner.

The next moment, the fish monster's demonic power surged, and its body shook, like an arrow shot from a bow, flying straight towards where Chen Qing and the old turtle were.

Seeing this, the old turtle immediately dodged.

There was a loud bang and splashing water, and the fish monster fell directly to their original position, forming a deep pit of more than ten meters. Although it recovered quickly, neither the old turtle nor Chen Qing wanted to confront the fish monster head-on.

It seems that this fish monster is a monster that specializes in the physical body.

As soon as Chen Qing came to his mind, he took action immediately. He waved his hand and scattered several formation flags. Magic power surged, and formation patterns emerged in the void, connecting with each other, blocking the land within a radius of hundreds of meters, just like when he dealt with the cold toad.

When the formation was taking shape, the old turtle was not idle either. It mobilized its demonic power and cast several magic spells to entangle with the fish monster. After Chen Qing set up the formation, the man and the turtle hid in the formation, making it impossible for the fish monster to find any trace of them, and it could only rush around in the formation.

The fish monster swam hundreds of meters in all directions of the formation, but finally returned to the starting point, so he knew that he was trapped.

So, it stayed where it was, and the demonic power continued to gather around it, gradually condensing. Then, it opened its mouth and spit out a torrent of demonic power. The surrounding waters were affected by it and were swept up by its demonic power, forming a huge tornado, rushing straight towards the open space not far away.

The demonic power torrent carried a waterspout, causing the sky and earth to change color. The surrounding waters were swaying and causing endless waves.

The light curtain of the formation covering the surroundings was shaken by this, and ripples appeared in the void, as if it could not withstand this waterspout.

Wow, this is going to be so powerful that bricks can fly.

Chen Qing and the old turtle had already left the formation at this time. He used his spiritual sense to look at the situation inside the formation, and a solemn expression appeared on his face.

This formation was just casually set up by him, and its bearing capacity was limited. It could not withstand the torrent of demonic power from the fish monster, so its destruction was inevitable.

This fish monster is quite powerful.

Looking at the fish demon standing in the torrent of demonic power, Chen Qing smiled, and the Three Spirits Mysterious Fire Fan flew out from his dantian and hovered in front of him.

The three-colored spiritual flames burned violently and clung to Chen Qing, making him look like a fire god.

The next moment, the light curtain of the formation shattered, and a torrent of demonic power burst out from it, causing the surrounding waters to be turbulent. The figure of the fish demon emerged from it and immediately looked towards where Chen Qing was.
