My Optimized Immortal Life

Di Jian listened to the news about the blood demon for a while. After hearing that the demon was still on Yingnu Peak and seemed to want to use the blood formation to refine the essence and blood of the three cultivators, he prepared to leave.

He had already inquired about the location of Yingnu Peak from the surrounding cultivators. Now that he knew the news, he naturally had to go there as soon as possible to eliminate these evil cultivators who relied on the essence and blood of the cultivators to practice.

At this moment, someone slammed the table and said loudly.

"Everyone, the demon is still on Yingnu Peak and hasn't come down. Although he killed three late Qi Refining cultivators, he's only at the ninth level himself. He's just relying on his magic to show off his power. Now that he's still on the mountain, he might be seriously injured and unable to move. He set up the blood formation to cover up his injuries, bluff, and buy himself time to heal."

After a pause, the monk continued.

"In this case, we should take advantage of this opportunity, organize our forces, go up the mountain and kill him, so as to prevent future troubles."

As soon as these words fell, someone in the crowd immediately echoed them.

"Indeed, no matter how powerful the Blood Demon is, he is only in the late stage of Qi Refining. If we can gather a dozen fellow Daoists, we can easily kill him."

After saying this, the monk who agreed immediately stood up and said with a smile.

"Slaying demons and eliminating evil is what cultivators of our generation should do. I am Zhao Sheng, at the eighth level of Qi Refining. I am willing to follow you up the mountain to eliminate the demons."

As Zhao Sheng spoke, he released the magical energy of the eighth level of Qi Refining, which startled the surrounding cultivators.

The eighth level of Qi Refining is an extremely high level of cultivation among casual cultivators. Even though the resources in the Central Region are abundant and the spiritual energy is thick, there will not be too many casual cultivators with this level of cultivation.

"Hahaha, with the help of a master like Fellow Daoist Zhao, I feel more confident in exorcising the demon."

The monk who had proposed going up the mountain to eliminate demons at the beginning no longer concealed his cultivation level. He was seen slowly releasing his magical power, which made the surrounding monks look even more surprised.

"Great Perfection of Qi Refining?"

Zhao Sheng felt the former's harmonious and deep magical aura, and a trace of surprise appeared on his face, which then turned into joy.

He just bowed and saluted.

"With fellow Daoist here, my cultivation at the eighth level of Qi Refining is useless."

The man laughed loudly when he heard this.

"If you don't mind, Brother Zhao, you can just call me Brother Li."

Brother Li walked up to Zhao Sheng, helped him up, and then spoke to the surrounding monks.

"Everyone, there are also masters among the independent cultivators. Now that the blood demon is weak, if we organize our forces, we will definitely be able to kill the demon on Yingnu Peak and eliminate this threat to the cultivators within a hundred miles."

When the surrounding cultivators saw that both of them were top cultivators in the late Qi Refining stage, and heard their inspiring words, they felt their blood boiling, and many of them immediately spoke up, wanting to join in.

Brother Li agreed to all of them, accepted many people and rejected many people, and finally he really formed a team of more than a dozen monks.

However, Di Jian saw it clearly.

When Brother Li was recruiting people, Zhao Sheng was always there to help. It was obvious that the two knew each other. Looking at the cultivators they recruited into the team, most of them were at the sixth level of Qi Refining. They were not very old and had the hope of breaking through to the late stage of Qi Refining.

It is obvious that Brother Li has ulterior motives. He wants to use the demon-eliminating event to gather strength and build power.

The ultimate goal must be to collect resources for his own practice. As for why Di Jian dared to make such a judgment, it was very simple.

This Brother Li is indeed quite talented. Judging from his bone age, he is only about 40 years old, but he has been able to cultivate to the perfection of Qi Refining. This is extremely rare among casual cultivators. People like him must have great ambitions and must want to break through the Foundation Establishment stage and dominate the world.

However, it is extremely difficult for a casual cultivator to break through the foundation-building stage. Unless he has extraordinary luck, there is no chance of breaking through the foundation-building stage by working hard on his own.

Only by building up power and gathering resources can there be some hope.

Di Jian had seen many tricks like this during his years of experience, so he could naturally see through them at a glance.

There are many cultivators as insightful as Di Jian, but most of them are gray-haired people in the middle and late stages of Qi Refining. They are all independent cultivators. Those who can cultivate to the middle stage of Qi Refining are not those naive children who have just entered the world of immortal cultivation. They naturally know what Brother Li is planning. Among the cultivators who join this so-called demon-hunting team, there are also many cultivators who are as clear as a mirror.

But so what?

If a casual cultivator wants to reach a high level of cultivation, without exceptional luck, he can only rely on one word: struggle.

Fight for resources, skills, elixirs, etc.

If you don’t fight, how can you practice?

After joining this demon-hunting team, if they really get rid of the blood demon, with such power, coupled with Brother Li's genuine perfect Qi-refining cultivation, there will definitely be very little resistance to establishing a power. Once the power is established, they will be the elders of it. Brother Li wants to use the power to collect resources, so how can they not want to?

This is a win-win situation, and even Brother Li and Zhao Sheng are very clear about it.

Leading this team of more than a dozen cultivators in the middle and late stages of Qi Refining, Brother Li smiled brightly.

"Fellow Daoists, get rid of the blood demon today! Go up the mountain!"

"Go up the mountain!"

Zhao Sheng shouted, and the cultivators behind him also shouted. Everyone automatically separated and made way for Brother Li and his group of cultivators, watching them leave this place and head towards Yingnu Peak.

Di Jian watched this scene without saying a word. He only stood up slowly after Brother Li and his team left his sight, walked out of the market, and followed the group of monks from a distance.

Although the power of this group of monks is indeed huge, Di Jian, out of caution, feels it is better to go there himself to prevent the blood demon from escaping and leaving behind harm.

Yingnu Peak is not far from the market here, only a few dozen miles away. Among all the cultivators, the lowest level is the sixth level of Qi Refining, with profound magic power. It only took a few hours to walk these dozens of miles.

"The Heroine Peak is just ahead. Look, the summit is shrouded in blood, and even the rosy clouds can't penetrate. This must have been set up by the Blood Demon."

Zhao Sheng was walking in front. He looked at the faint blood color on the mountain in front of him and suddenly spoke.

When everyone heard this, they all looked up.

I saw that the Yingnu Peak was nearly a hundred feet high, with a gentle slope leading straight to the top of the mountain. Above the peak, there was a faint blood color that covered the surroundings. It was already afternoon, and under the afterglow of the setting sun, it was difficult to see the blood color that penetrated directly to the top of the peak. Obviously, this must be the power of the blood formation.

Seeing this, Li Yushu was not in a hurry. He first arranged for everyone to sit down and recover their magic power. They had traveled all the way and quickly arrived here with the help of magic power. Even if they had profound cultivation, their magic power would be depleted and they would be a little tired. It would be better to rest first and then attack up the mountain.

As they walked along, everyone naturally knew Li Yushu's full name. Now they all obeyed his orders and sat cross-legged on the ground to recover their magic power.

Di Jian was a full mile away from here, but with his spiritual sense, he could easily detect everyone's movements.

Seeing that everyone was sitting cross-legged on the ground and recovering their magic power, he turned his gaze to the top of the Yingnu Peak, and his eyes suddenly became solemn.

It was indeed the breath of blood, but this breath was too strong. There must be more than a few monks who died here.

Let these casual cultivators go up and try it out first to see what this blood formation is like.

Di Jian calmed down and waited quietly.
