Chapter 167 Honesty



“The general framework is perfect, but there are many omissions.”

Mr. Chen placed a cushion next to the armchair and sat on it steadily. With a serious look in his eyes, he studied the Xuanhuang Qi Condensation Technique that he had just mastered.

He was in the late stage of foundation building and had great knowledge. He could see at a glance that there were many problems with the secret method taught by Taoist Dapeng.

This guy treated him as an ignorant boy and didn't put much thought into it. He just cut out small parts of the scriptures and filled them in randomly.

If he were an ordinary jailer, and followed this training, he would have a stitch in the side and bled to death in a short while.

Now.

He tried to use his own background to fill in and annotate some passages with serious problems.

This step probably took a few days.

"puff……"

Chen Sheng practiced the newly modified Xuanhuang Condensing Qi Technique, and then a magical power wandered around in his body and rushed up to his head, making his mind confused. His eyes went black and he vomited blood.

"Logically, I should be dead."

He was not surprised and calmly wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. Taoist Dapeng passed down the Xuanhuang Qi Condensation Technique in order to kill someone with a borrowed knife, not to help the younger generation.

Although he had made some improvements to the Xuanhuang Condensing Qi Technique, a high-level technique was extremely complicated. Without long-term study, it would be impossible to fully understand and recreate it.

If you practice recklessly, you will die.

It was him, with his special physique, who could have replaced him with an ordinary jailer. Taoist Dapeng would have gotten what he wanted.

"What are you doing."

Old Changtou's eyes fell on Chen Sheng, and he couldn't see through him. This young man always surprised people.

It has been a few days since Chen Sheng learned the cultivation method from Taoist Dapeng.

Generally speaking, at this time, young people who are ignorant of the world can no longer suppress their curiosity and greed and practice secret techniques.

And then... I was tricked to death!

Mr. Chen escaped the rules perfectly. Even at this moment, he was still alive and kicking, which was extremely strange.

"That's not right. Why hasn't the familiar process of carrying people started yet?"

Taoist Dapeng was also confused. He knew a profound secret method that was very attractive to young people from the lower class.

He didn't believe that Chen Sheng could endure and not practice the Xuanhuang Qi Condensation Technique.

As long as one practices the Xuan Huang Qi Condensation Technique and the Qi rushes to the spiritual platform, he will definitely not escape death.

"That kid didn't practice my Xuan Huang Condensing Qi Technique? Was he being cautious? Or did he see something?"

As there was no news of Chen's death or life, Taoist Dapeng felt troubled and thought about the mistakes in his plan.

"There is no way to make up for it. I still have to go see Taoist Dapeng."

At this time, after experiencing the seventeenth failure, Chen Sheng finally decided to ask Taoist Dapeng for advice.

His foundation was still a little shallow, and he was unable to complete the flawed Xuanhuang Qi Condensation Technique by his own means.

In cell number 16, the jailer and the prisoner faced each other, looking at each other, each with their own thoughts.

"Boy, how far have you cultivated the Xuanhuang Qi Condensation Technique?"

Taoist Dapeng looked at Chen Sheng and felt a little disappointed. This boy looked clear-headed and there was no sign of him dying. It was really bad luck.

He couldn't help but try it out, wanting to sort out the clues and make plans more conveniently.

"What do you think?"

Chen Sheng's eyes were warm, but after arriving at the Black Abyss Prison, they gradually became deep, and he seemed to be able to see through everything, including the scheming and calculations of the people and the treacherous hearts.

"You didn't practice?"

This is the truth confirmed by Taoist Dapeng. Only if Chen Sheng resists the temptation and does not practice the Xuanhuang Qi Condensation Technique can he avoid death.

"I practiced."

Mr. Chen told the truth.

"That's not right, you..."

Taoist Dapeng didn't believe it. He thought that practicing the immortal way with numerous mistakes and omissions was a way to death. No meridians could bear the violent magic power, and sudden death was the only option.

"I'm still alive, right?"

Mr. Chen said what Taoist Dapeng had never said.

This is indeed the fact. Apart from him, anyone who practices the Xuanhuang Qi Condensation Technique with numerous mistakes will be carried away.

"You're kidding me!"

Taoist Dapeng's eyes were wide open with anger, and he was convinced that Chen Sheng had just deceived him and had not practiced the Xuanhuang Qi Condensation Technique at all.

There was nothing to do at this time because I saw that he had evil intentions and was scheming, so I didn't dare to practice.

“Crack…”

Mr. Chen did not answer. He calmly opened the door of cell number 16 and walked in skillfully.

There was a calmness in his steps, his figure disappeared into the darkness, and he actually had a sense of tallness and depth, like a god or demon, and the movement of his muscles and bones made sounds like twisting steel.

"What are you doing?"

Taoist Dapeng's momentum suddenly became weaker for no reason. He remembered that Chen Sheng was born with supernatural powers and his hands were strong enough to lift a tripod.

"Bang"

Without any signs or words, a palm strike came down, and Taoist Dapeng's body shook violently. Two or three ribs were broken, his blood was disordered, and he squatted on the ground in pain.

"Teach me the Dharma."

Mr. Chen said last time that if there were any problems with the Xuanhuang Qi Condensation Technique, he would definitely reward him. Now he has fulfilled his promise.

"Didn't I send it to you?"

Taoist Dapeng felt extremely aggrieved. He just started beating people without hesitation, without any dignity at all.

"There are gaps! A lot!"

Chen Sheng pointed out the flaws of the Xuan Huang Qi Condensation Technique with a serious look, and said he was not speaking nonsense.

“You really practiced!”

A feeling of shock came from his heart, dispelling the frustration that Dapeng Taoist had felt. His eyes opened wide, revealing emotions of surprise and disbelief.

He always thought that Chen Sheng was still alive because he was cautious and did not practice the Xuanhuang Qi Condensation Technique.

The truth is, Mr. Chen has passed through many traps and is still alive. He has verified the quality of the Qigong method and has come to ask for the true scriptures.

"Teach me the Dharma."

Mr. Chen said calmly.

"I am a prisoner in the Black Abyss Prison. I was imprisoned because I did not give in despite the most severe torture."

Taoist Dapeng sneered. Being ruthless and brave, and not fearing life and death, were the specialties of the prisoners in the Black Abyss Prison. It was ridiculous for a mere jailer to want him to surrender.

"Bang"

Hearing this, Chen Sheng's expression was very calm, and he was not angry, but his hands moved quickly. He raised one hand high, and blew up a sharp cold wind, like rocks rolling down a cliff, extremely fierce.

Taoist Dapeng suddenly hung on the wall, and came down after one or two breaths.

"explain."

Mr. Chen uttered a word, calmly and concisely.

"Let me take my time..."

Taoist Dapeng lay on the ground, his head turning quickly, and finally decided to take out the real thing.

He really is not someone who can be beaten into submission. This can be proven by the fact that he managed to hold on without uttering a single word during the severe torture in the Law Enforcement Hall.

The reason why Chen Sheng can succeed time and time again is not because of his natural supernatural power, but because he is a little convinced.

The torture in the Law Enforcement Hall is unreasonable, and he despises such rules of the game.

But Mr. Chen was reasonable. The other party gambled with him using his life to verify the authenticity of the Xuanhuang Qi Condensation Technique.

For such a young man, he was willing to be fair, admit defeat temporarily, and then make the final decision.

"Nothing missing?"

After getting the second edition of the Xuanhuang Condensing Qi Technique, Mr. Chen asked the same questions as before, and the meaning behind them is thought-provoking.

If you have any more problems, I will beat you again.

"without!"

Taoist Dapeng gritted his teeth.

The feud in Cage No. 16 came to an end.

"What's going on between the two of you?"

There are too many issues worth thinking about here.

"Dapeng Taoist thought that I was born with supernatural powers and that I was a promising talent, so he wanted to train me and teach me the true method."

Mr. Chen concealed a small part of the truth, but most of it was true. Taoist Dapeng really taught a lot of real things, and almost the entire Xuanhuang Qi Condensation Technique was revealed.

"Really?!"

If he had heard such a reason before, Old Chang would have definitely said it was impossible, but now he was somewhat skeptical.

The fact that Mr. Chen is still alive and well is a clear proof of this.

Then he dismissed the idea and advised: "There must be something wrong. They are definitely not good people."

One of the three rules of survival in the Black Abyss Prison is, don’t be greedy. Once you are greedy, you are already halfway between life and death.

The reason he was able to survive in the Black Abyss Prison and live to the age of retirement was that he strictly abided by the three laws.

"I understand. They are... extremely vicious and treacherous."

Mr. Chen nodded solemnly. Old Chang was really teaching him with all his heart. He always showed the utmost kindness to such a kind old man.

"Yes."

Mr. Chen's awareness made Old Changtou very happy. He laughed happily and went away to relax.

The Black Abyss Prison was silent and seemed like a dark world. Through a small, narrow window, a bright light shone onto a white flower.

"This time... I'm serious..."

Chen Sheng sat next to Bai Hua, but his mind was immersed in the Xuan Huang Qi Condensation Technique. He took a quick look and did not find any mistakes.

He didn't believe it and tried to figure out the true meaning of the text in an effort to uncover the falsehood.

It is obviously foolish to expect the prisoners in the Black Abyss Prison to show kindness.

Three mistakes!

Finally, Chen Sheng found out the trap in the second version of the Xuan Huang Qi Condensation Technique and did it very secretly. He saw that Taoist Dapeng was sincere and really wanted to kill him.

Just like before, Mr. Chen tried to make up for the shortcomings with his own insights.

This was beneficial, and he found that through this attempt, his insights into the scriptures and techniques were constantly increasing.

Practice the techniques externally and understand people’s hearts internally.

This is the meaning he found in the Black Abyss Prison.

Of course, the road is tortuous.

"puff"

Chen Sheng practiced the repaired Xuanhuang Condensing Qi Technique and vomited blood again. He didn't care at all and said, "If I only have one life, I really can't practice the method given by the prisoners in the Black Abyss Prison."

This was his greatest realization: the jailers of the Black Abyss Prison could still be kind-hearted, but the prisoners were completely cold-blooded and would kill people without shedding any blood.

Compassion, one of the three major rules of survival, is absolutely objectively recognized. Such scum is not worthy of pity.

fail.

Still failed.

On this road of repair, Chen Sheng kept trying, but compared to the practice of the first edition of the Health Preservation Sutra, he had transformed from taking chances to conscious control.

He is following the path that suits him best!

“Buzz…”

In the darkness, a slight fluctuation came from Chen Sheng's body, and he was finally no longer possessed.

He filled the three gaps in the Xuanhuang Qi Condensation Technique with his own understanding of Taoism.

"Refine your magic power and consolidate your foundation."

After the Xuan Huang Qi Condensation Technique went through his body, Chen Sheng understood its purpose. It was definitely top-notch when used to build the foundation of Taoism.

He believed that the Qi refining from the Qi Refining Stage to the Foundation Establishment Stage was no worse than that of the Guangxiu Immortal Sect.

Although after building the foundation, there is no longer the power of a complete transformation, but if you persist for a long time, there will still be a significant increase.

"There are still some flaws. My comprehension is not high after all. The repaired cultivation method can only be said to be able to be practiced, but it is definitely not as natural and smooth as the complete version."

Chen Sheng was very happy that he had repaired the Xuan Huang Qi Condensation Technique to the point where it was usable, but he was not arrogant and admitted that there were some shortcomings.

Any high-level secret technique contains a lot of hidden things, and it is not possible to fully master it in a short period of time.

Cell number sixteen.

"That kid should be gone."

Taoist Dapeng thought to himself that Chen Sheng was a very special jailer that he had seen before, but he did not think that he could escape life and death this time.

In order to kill someone, he had good intentions and set a trap carefully. Even monks of the same level might not be able to see the flaw.

"It's just a pity that I can't see his miserable appearance."

After coming to the conclusion, Taoist Dapeng was not as happy as he had imagined. It was a rare opportunity to meet a special jailer, and it was a great pity that he could not witness his fall with his own eyes.

"What are you thinking about? You're so happy."

At this time, a calm voice was heard, breaking Taoist Dapeng's imagination.

He looked up and saw a jailer standing opposite him. He had a slender figure, deep eyes, and a stable breath of life.

"Oh……"

In an instant, Taoist Dapeng looked unhappy with a droopy face.

"Be happy. You are locked up in the Black Abyss Prison. You don't have to worry about food or water. How great!"

Smiles can shift. A smile appeared on Chen Sheng's face. Seeing the thief's disappointment, he felt that the Black Abyss Prison suddenly became brighter.

"Then you come."

Taoist Dapeng didn't know why, but he would easily lose his balance when facing Mr. Chen. Maybe this young man had some special qualities.

Yes, it was indifference, too calm, and fearless, which made him feel despised.

The dignity of these prisoners in the Black Abyss Prison is built on the fear of the jailers. Once it is lost, endless imprisonment is no different from death.

"Your Xuanhuang Qi Condensation Technique is really good. If you were not suppressed, you would have the potential to dominate the world."

Mr. Chen thought of his first conversation with Taoist Dapeng, who had said that if given time, he would be able to make a great reputation and get out of this mess.

He originally thought that he was just bragging, but after learning about the magic of the Xuanhuang Qi Condensation Technique, he felt that if he gave this guy some more time to practice, it might not be impossible to achieve his goal.

"snort……"

Taoist Dapeng was a little proud. He wanted to show off to others and have them recognize his own value in order to feel a sense of accomplishment. But in a moment, he lost his composure and asked, "You succeeded in your cultivation?"

This is impossible. He has a flaw. After practicing, his cultivation will not improve. Instead, his magic power will become disordered and he will die suddenly.

"Yes, thanks to you, I have succeeded, but there are some flaws. I'll have to trouble you to fix them."

Mr. Chen pointed out that Taoist Dapeng deliberately left three traps and also emitted a wisp of magic power, which was tainted with the aura of Xuanhuang Qi Condensation Technique, proving that he had indeed mastered it.

"Could it be that... the flaws I left behind can be ignored?"

Taoist Dapeng was in a trance and felt very heartbroken. The trap he left was too simple. It was not a deadly situation, so someone took advantage of it.

Something is wrong, something is wrong with this kid!

After a few breaths, he became confused and looked at Chen Sheng, feeling as if he was going against the grain.

Between the two of them, he is the weaker one, facing a demon king in human skin, who should not be offended.

"You don't want me to do it either."

Mr. Chen stood there with a smile on his face, but he also exuded a strong aura, as if he was ready to take action at any time.

"good……"

Taoist Dapeng had a complicated expression and thought a lot. In the end, he handed the complete Xuanhuang Qi Condensation Technique to Chen Sheng.

In this game, he lost everything. From the very beginning, he lost by putting himself in the position of a hunter. If he continued to fight, he would lose his dignity. Even as a prisoner of the Black Abyss Prison, he had to maintain his dignity.

"Bang"

After acquiring the Xuan Huang Condensing Qi Technique, Chen Sheng still struck Da Peng Taoist with one palm strike, making him unable to get up.

"Didn't I give it to you?"

Taoist Dapeng was both angry and aggrieved. He had already demonstrated the mysterious Qi Condensation Technique, but he still couldn't avoid being humiliated.

"I told you last time that there is something wrong with the Xuan Huang Condensing Qi Technique I gave you. I will beat you up again this time. I am a man of my word, and I must do what I say."

Mr. Chen said sincerely.
