My Optimized Immortal Life

After the water dragon rushed into the smoke and dust and wiped out the last trace of Lushan's magical power, Chen Qing waited in place for the smoke and dust mixed with the heavy snow to dissipate.

The nearest city is dozens of miles away. In addition, it is snowing heavily and the wind is howling. Mortals basically do not come here. Therefore, the noise caused by Chen Qing detonating the formation will not be discovered at all.

After waiting for a while, the biting cold wind blew away the smoke and dust, but the heavy snow still did not dissipate. However, it was better than relying on Lushan's magical aura to determine his location.

Chen Qing looked around and saw that the originally spacious thatched hut had now become ruins, with debris scattered in the snow around it. In front of the thatched hut, Lushan's figure was lying in a pit several meters in size.

Chen Qing took a look and did not walk forward. Instead, he released a small fireball and let it cover Lushan.

In the flames, Lushan's body quickly turned into ashes.

Seeing this, Chen Qing activated his Qi-gazing technique again and carefully observed the surroundings. After confirming that there was no third person present, he walked up and dug out Lushan's storage bag from a pile of dust.

Sighing secretly, Chen Qing put away Lushan's storage bag, then boarded the flying boat and left.

Only the mess was left on the ground, but it was soon covered by the heavy snow and disappeared without a trace. No one would have thought that a cultivator in the late stage of Qi Refining would be buried here.

On the way out of Qingluo Lake, Chen Qing stood at the bow of the flying boat. While controlling the flying boat forward, he was also constantly using his magic power to grind away the magic imprint that Lushan had left on the storage bag.

His cultivation has now returned to the sixth level of Qi Refining, and his magic power is strong and purer than that of ordinary cultivators. It doesn't take long to remove the imprint of Lushan's magic power, so he completed it on this flying boat.

In the foggy valley, Lushan also bought a Linlang Mansion Order, which should be in his storage bag now.

After grinding off the magic mark on the storage bag, Chen Qing's spiritual consciousness probed into it and indeed found the Linlang Mansion Order among a pile of items.

Seeing this, Chen Qing nodded.

With the Linlang Mansion Order, he can now go to the Linlang Secret Realm to take a look.

According to those wandering cultivators, the Linlang Secret Realm is a huge medicinal garden, where many first-level spiritual plants are planted, and there are even many foundation-building spiritual objects. However, there are restrictions next to all the foundation-building spiritual objects, and without special means, it is impossible to collect these precious spiritual plants.

Chen Qing naturally wanted to enter this Linlang secret realm. The spiritual objects for foundation building were secondary. The main thing was that there was sufficient spiritual energy to satisfy his cultivation.

With this Linlang Mansion Order, you can enter the Linlang Secret Realm at any time. In this case, you should cultivate to the seventh level of Qi Refining before entering it.

Chen Qing shifted his mind away from the Linlang Mansion Order and began to count the belongings in Lushan.

It has to be said that although Lushan is a cultivator in the late stage of Qi Refining, what is stored in his storage bag is much less than that of Liu Yanghe.

In the entire storage bag, there were only hundreds of spirit stones, a few bottles of Ninghua Pills, a top-grade magic weapon, the Blood Moon Wheel, several jade slips of exercises, and some miscellaneous items.

After counting, Chen Qing couldn't help but withdraw his spiritual consciousness and didn't want to look at it anymore.

Fortunately, Lushan is a cultivator in the late stage of Qi Refining, but who would have thought that he is so poor. There is nothing in the entire storage bag that Chen Qing would like, except for the Linlang Mansion Order.

But I am looking forward to those jade slips containing the martial arts techniques.

For Chen Qing, the most valuable thing in a cultivator’s storage bag is not the cultivation resources stored in it, but the jade slips containing the exercises.

After all, his innate ability is to optimize the skills. As long as there are enough skills, Chen Qing can use them to deduce many secret techniques and spells along the way.

He knew very well that the most valuable thing in the world of immortal cultivation was not the various natural treasures and cultivation resources, but the cultivation techniques.

The skills are what determine a cultivator's upper limit, and cultivation resources can only raise the lower limit.

Without practicing high-level skills, even if you have a lot of cultivation resources, you will not be able to reach a higher level. It is more likely that your resources will be taken away directly by high-level cultivators.

Therefore, Chen Qing's innate ability will always be his biggest trump card.

He looked at the jade slips in Lushan's storage bag. There were four in total, which meant that Chen Qing had gained a total of four kinds of skills this time. Chen Qing was quite looking forward to it.

After all, it is a technique that allows Lushan to cultivate to the late stage of Qi Refining in Luo Yun Mansion where spiritual energy is scarce. The grade must be not low. At the very least, it must be at the Foundation Establishment level. There may even be a technique at the Core Formation level.

With such expectations, Chen Qing rushed all the way back to Ziyun Mountain.

When I returned to the cave, I couldn't find Xu Lingxin. I could only see the tightly closed door of the retreat room.

Chen Qing was not surprised to see this. When he went out on business, he could only let Xu Lingxin guard the cave. Moreover, he was often away for one or two days. Xu Lingxin had nothing to do, so she could only go to practice.

This is actually a good thing. After all, Chen Qing has innate abilities that can help him move forward on the path to immortality, while Xu Lingxin can only rely on her own hard work.

Chen Qing also thought about helping Xu Lingxin optimize the martial arts she practiced, but considering that the sect Xu Lingxin came from had Jindan-level cultivators, and they were her parents, the martial arts Xu Lingxin practiced must be able to reach the Jindan level directly, which is better than the Earth Fire Transformation Technique he practiced himself, so Chen Qing never mentioned this matter.

However, after building the foundation and being able to refine the essence of earth fire and rapidly improve his cultivation, he can help Xu Lingxin optimize his skills.

Chen Qing has always been very clear about what he can and cannot do.

Without thinking any more, Chen Qing sat down on the stone chair next to the stone table in the cave, then took out Lushan's storage bag, ready to look at the four jade slips that had not been examined yet.

The first one.

Chen Qing took one out at random and placed it between his eyebrows, and his spiritual consciousness instantly poured into it.

Nine Resentment Blood Soul Technique!

When his spiritual consciousness entered the jade slip, the first thing he saw was these five big words. Chen Qing thought to himself, as expected.

As soon as he heard about this technique, he knew it was the magic technique practiced by Lushan. Although what those casual practitioners said was not groundless, there was not much basis for it. Chen Qing also thought at the beginning that Lushan was really practicing magic techniques.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that Chen Qing had not seen Lushan activate the magic secret technique before, but it doesn’t matter.

After just a brief wait, Chen Qing continued to examine the specific practice content of this technique. Although he did not know how to practice this technique, he could still include it in the scope of future deduction and optimization.

However, after reading the entire Nine Grievances Blood Soul Art, Chen Qing realized that he had gotten a great bargain.

This Nine Resentment Blood Soul Technique is actually a technique that can directly reach the Nascent Soul level.

He couldn't help but secretly sigh at how lucky Lushan was that he could find a technique that could be cultivated to the Nascent Soul level in the spiritual energy-deficient Luo Yun Mansion.

The description of this technique also made Chen Qing quite excited.

The Nine Grievances Blood Soul Technique is indeed a demonic technique. Its practice does not require sufficient spiritual energy like most techniques, but requires a large number of mortals or immortal cultivators as practice resources.

First of all, this technique requires the practitioner to cultivate a spiritual fire called the Fire of Resentful Souls. Afterwards, this fire can be used to refine the essence of a mortal and transform it into a new Fire of Resentful Souls. The practitioner can then absorb this newly refined spiritual fire to improve his cultivation.

This behavior is undoubtedly demonic, but it is also extremely tempting, especially in Luo Yun Mansion where spiritual energy is scarce.

Chen Qing seemed to be able to imagine Lushan's excitement when he obtained this martial art.

For casual cultivators like them, this kind of technique that can directly lead to the Nascent Soul stage is obviously extremely tempting and is the ultimate goal of the Tao.

With this skill, it is no wonder that Lushan was able to advance to the late stage of Qi Refining.

Chen Qing thought again of the time when he ambushed Lushan and Lushan walked out of the thatched hut with a magical aura far greater than before.

I guess it was at that time that Lushan was mainly practicing the Nine Resentment Blood Soul Technique, and his cultivation had also made great progress.

However, for Chen Qing, if he had not broken through to the foundation-building level, then in front of him, there was no difference between the perfect Qi Refining and the first level of Qi Refining, it was just a matter of the number of means used.
