The sound of footsteps came closer and closer.
It was Yang Huayue. There was some blood on his face and his temples were disheveled. He walked with big strides, his clothes fluttering in the wind, and a strong bloody aura was blowing in his face.
"This is... a robbery."
Chen Sheng's heart skipped a beat. Yang Huayue had rushed to Changfeng Mountains some time ago, but he came back in a disheveled state. Did he fail?
"That secret place is extremely dangerous. Five people died there."
After Yang Huayue came out of the Si'e Secret Realm, he galloped all the way here. He just stopped and let out a long breath.
The Si'e Secret Realm is indeed a deep pit. There is a huge killing array inside, which is intended to kill all the monks who come to explore. There are also a number of vicious divine lights flying around. If you are not careful, you will die on the spot.
"My condolences."
Chen Sheng was silent. Although he had warned earlier that Si'e Secret Realm might be dangerous, he still felt a little touched when he actually lost someone there.
"It's okay. We are very happy. We made a lot of money."
Yang Huayue took a deep breath and waved his hand. There was no lament in his words, but a warm expression.
It is normal to lose hands while exploring secret places.
They have long been accustomed to it.
Instead, it was very satisfying to squeeze cultivation resources from the prisoners. After a long period of inactivity, a sudden surge of resources was in place.
Although Ye Ming's plan was vicious, it also cost a lot of money. They took out a large amount of cultivation resources from the Si'e Secret Realm, and the profit for each person was still considerable.
As he spoke, he took out Mr. Chen's share, very meticulously.
"Well……"
Chen Sheng smiled bitterly, it was normal for people to die for money, but Yang Huayue's calmness still showed that the Dark Blade monks were a group of fierce people.
"From now on, you must cooperate with us. The guy from the Law Enforcement Hall is an outsider. We are in the same group."
After tasting the sweetness, the more Yang Hua looked at Chen Sheng, the more passionate his eyes became, as if he was looking at a God of Wealth. He could not find any mistakes in his attitude, for fear of missing the opportunity.
"I will find out more clues about the secret realm and give them to you."
Mr. Chen had a very good impression of Yang Huayue. As the other party said, he was indeed one of their own and he did not mind working with them.
"Okay, we are not afraid of danger."
After getting the promise, Yang Hua felt more relieved, fearing that it was a one-time deal. He then mentioned Chen Sheng's previous instructions and said, "We have heard about Ye Liang. He is now a casual cultivator in Yushan Baigu Cave, collecting spiritual herbs and killing monsters for a living. He is quite honest."
This is a true righteous monk who lives a simple life, but is content with his poverty and has a very peaceful heart.
"I have a way. Soon you will be able to explore the secret realm again."
After hearing this, Chen Sheng had already made up his mind. After this action, Ye Ming would definitely be discouraged and would not dare to make any more trouble.
"Ah... OK... Then I will recruit a few new members into the Ninth Team."
Yang Huayue was overjoyed, but also felt a little anxious. According to the intensity of the situation, if five people were lost at a time, his Dark Blade Squad would be destroyed after just two or three times.
So he said goodbye in a hurry and left to recruit more monks.
…
Cell number 18.
Ye Ming has been keeping an eye on Chen Sheng. The Si'e Secret Realm in the Changfeng Mountains is a killing place filled with murderous intent. If a small jailer steps in, he will surely be killed.
However, Mr. Chen did not leave the Black Abyss Prison. He remained motionless and very steady in Area A11.
Then he saw that Chen Sheng and Yang Huayue were getting in touch.
The aura of the Dark Blade Monk was extremely unique. He recognized it immediately and had a bad feeling in his heart.
"This kid, he wouldn't be so stubborn as to send a secret realm away directly."
Ye Ming didn't think about it in this direction at first. That was a secret realm that was extremely important to him. If he took the risk, he would be in big trouble.
Tell others and share the profits? That's just to fill your stomach.
Between having enough food and drink and having a full stomach, smart people know how to choose.
But now it seems that the frequent contact between Chen Sheng and Dark Blade is obviously not right.
"Ye Ming! You are not honest."
While thinking about this, Chen Sheng came in front of Ye Ming. His eyes were sharp and his tone was questioning, which made people feel uneasy.
"I don't understand what you are saying."
Ye Ming's heart skipped a beat, but his face showed confusion. He made up his mind that he would never be tricked into revealing his true identity.
"There is a great danger in the Si'e Secret Realm, and five of the Dark Blade's best fighters were killed."
Mr. Chen knew that this person was determined and would not admit it unless he told the reason. So he hurriedly told the result of Dark Blade's exploration of Si'e's secret realm.
"You really threw away the secret realm of Si'e."
Ye Ming was shocked and a little dumbfounded, and shouted: "Don't you know that this is a chance for you to get rich overnight? You are willing to share the profits!"
He was a little angry, and looked at Chen Sheng as if he was a prodigal son who easily revealed a precious secret.
"One of the three survival rules of the Black Abyss Prison is don't be greedy."
Mr. Chen said meaningfully.
Ye Ming's idea is the idea of an ordinary jailer, but people who have such ideas will find it difficult to survive long in the Black Abyss Prison.
"You're telling me this now?!!"
Ye Ming sneered. If Chen Sheng really took the three laws of survival as his guiding principles, the issue of Si'e Secret Realm would not have been raised.
He had seen through this young man. He was calm and decisive, just like an old fox.
"Want to know Ye Liang's current situation?"
Mr. Chen suddenly brought up a topic.
Before he could finish, Ye Ming's expression changed drastically, and a fierce power burst out from his body. He actually broke through the forbidden magic briefly and slammed into the iron fence like an angry beast.
You can see that his eyes are very scary, with an indescribable solemnity.
"I'm warning you, don't do anything you shouldn't do."
Ye Liang is Ye Ming's weak spot, he fought desperately, with blood on his hands, just because he didn't want his descendants to wallow in the quagmire, but due to different ideas, the father and son became strangers.
Despite this, he still cared about Ye Liang and valued this bloodline very much.
“That’s what I ask of you, too.”
Chen Sheng shook his head. It was right for Ye Ming to be concerned, but he was not willing to extend his concern to others. He said, "Since you are in the Black Abyss Prison, you should behave yourself."
Chen Lian is innocent. Her life should not be threatened in the Black Abyss Prison. He will let those who have ulterior motives know what it means to kill someone and destroy their heart.
"I see."
Ye Ming was silent for a moment, lowered his head, and for Ye Liang's sake, he didn't dare to jump.
"You have a lot of secrets. You are willing to reveal even the Si'e Secret Realm. It seems that there is a more precious opportunity."
At this time, Mr. Chen broke the silence, his eyes turned and fell on Ye Ming, as if he was spying on something.
"It's none of your business."
All his opportunities and secrets were gained through risking life and death. Even if he was trapped and unable to explore, he would not let them go to waste.
"Then let's talk about Ye Liang."
Mr. Chen turned the conversation back and said.
"you……"
Veins bulged on Ye Ming's neck and he was furious. Chen Shengzhi was threatening Ye Liang, which had already touched his bottom line.
"He lives a very poor life, relying on collecting spiritual herbs and hunting monsters to supplement his cultivation, but he has a good attitude and is content with what he has."
Mr. Chen did not explain anything, but only talked about Ye Liang's current situation. It was not very good, but not bad either. In terms of his cultivation progress alone, it was not ideal.
"He is like this, too soft-hearted."
Ye Ming calmed down a little. Knowing that his offspring's cultivation was slow and he was troubled by the cost of resources, he couldn't help but sigh.
If he was outside and walking freely, Ye Liang would not be so distressed.
However, the two of them were not on good terms, and if he were outside, Ye Liang would not accept his help.
Thinking of this, I felt a little depressed for a moment.
"If you were a little more ruthless, I would have captured him and brought him to the Black Abyss Prison long ago."
Mr. Chen laughed. He was a very tolerant person towards good people, but ruthless towards bad people.
If Ye Liang has a vicious heart, he will do things without any scruples, letting Ye Ming know what it means that evil will be punished by evil, and cause and effect will continue.
"What do you mean?"
At this point, Ye Ming had already realized that Chen Sheng had no intention of using Ye Liang as a threat. He must have other plans, otherwise he would not have analyzed it all, but would have captured Ye Liang directly and made him wait for his orders.
"You are locked up here, and you have the opportunities and magic in your hands, but they are just useless. Why don't you hand them all over? As for the magic, I will imprint a copy on Ye Liang, and give him half of the opportunities. Isn't it the best of both worlds?"
Mr. Chen slowly told his plan, using Ye Liang to subdue Ye Ming's rebelliousness and make him behave himself, and then he made a suggestion that the two parties cooperate to thoroughly uncover all the secrets of opportunities in him.
In the end, Ye Ming still had to behave himself and praise him for keeping his promise and being a good man.
"How can I trust you?"
Ye Ming's face became solemn, and it was impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry. He stared at Chen Sheng's face, trying to tell whether it was true or false.
"Believe it or not."
Mr. Chen knew that Ye Ming was moved, but he didn't make any promises and was very calm.
Ye Ming was imprisoned in the Black Abyss Prison and could do nothing. No matter how many promises he made or how beautiful his words were, they were all empty.
In short, the two sides are unequal, and Ye Ming is in a weaker position. There is no other way but to believe.
"Half is not enough."
Ye Ming did not remain tough for long. Knowing his own situation and knowing how powerful Chen Sheng was, he showed his true feelings and was willing to cooperate. He just tried his best to get more training resources for Ye Liang.
"That's enough. Taking too much is not good for him."
Chen Sheng shook his head. This was actually a very fair price. Ye Ming was not satisfied. At most, he would give him another convenience. He said, "If you feel that you have suffered a loss, I will give him another tiger skin and let people think that he has a relationship with the Black Abyss Prison. This can also be regarded as a guarantee."
After saying this, he fell silent.
There was no need for him to explain the pros and cons involved. Ye Ming was not a fool and he thought things through.
In the final analysis, it is a question of willingness and unwillingness, belief and disbelief.
"good……"
Ye Ming thought for a while and let out a long breath. He knew that from the moment Chen Sheng pulled Ye Liang out, he had no choice.
Besides, this half profit and the care of the Black Abyss Prison are already a very fair price.
Having made up his mind, he no longer hesitated and told all his secrets.
"In my life, I have three great opportunities, and the rest are just extras."
"One is the Si'e Secret Realm, but it is too dangerous. Now that you have explored it, it is considered useless."
"The second is the Soul Binding Hand, which can capture souls, determine life and death, and explore the past. This earned him the name of the Hand of Sorcerer."
"Third, I got the clue of Master Xiao Jian's other palace, but because I am not a person of the alchemy path, I cannot enter."
…
Ye Ming spoke slowly, for a long time, but the emphasis was on three major opportunities, any one of which could change the life of a casual cultivator.
He has enough opportunities, but his blessings are shallow, or he is alone and weak, so he cannot accomplish anything.
In the end, it just became a stepping stone for others.
"Master Xiao Jian? The third-level alchemist?!"
When Chen Sheng was working in the medicine house, he read a lot of books on alchemy and got to know some famous alchemists in the border areas.
This Xiao Jian is an ancient man who lived more than two thousand years ago. He was extremely talented and had never joined an immortal sect. However, he broke through the bottleneck of the foundation-building stage, achieved the golden elixir, and became a third-level alchemist.
Such people are extremely rare throughout the history of border areas, and are very legendary.
What is even more admirable is that Xiao Jian loves to support younger generations. He has indirectly influenced countless alchemists and is a master alchemist of his generation.
In the history of cultivation in border areas, he, as a casual cultivator, occupies a place and is definitely a remarkable figure.
"Yes, even though it is just a villa and not a real inheritance place, the things left behind by a third-level alchemy master are inestimable in value."
Ye Ming learned that before Master Xiao Jian died, he left behind four villas to store some used alchemy tools and gave them to the right people, while the main hall was left for the successor.
Opportunities can be big or small, but even a small opportunity like this is enough to cause a stir in the border area.
"Tell me all these secrets."
Mr. Chen said in surprise.
Xiao Jian's third-level alchemist inheritance is extremely rare, and even alchemy halls may not even have it. He was naturally delighted to have the opportunity to see it.
“Buzz…”
Ye Ming exhaled and pointed his finger. Pieces of information and spells flashed through Chen Sheng's mind one by one.
Then, Chen Sheng's eyes lit up and he said, "This Soul Binding Hand is also a good technique."
In addition to Xiao Jian's villa, he discovered that Ye Ming's secret weapon was also quite good. It could search the soul and take away the spirit, which was extremely powerful and could even attack on the spiritual level.
In addition to the Soul-Binding Hand, Chen Sheng also got the instructions for Xiao Jian's villa. This time he planned to go alone and explore it.
For the rest, there are many miscellaneous techniques that are not systematic, and there are also several secret realms. Although they are not as good as the Si'e Secret Realm, when added together, they are also a considerable amount of cultivation resources.
He didn't plan to go there alone as there were too many places and it would be too troublesome. He decided to leave it to Yuan Zifan and Yang Huayue's team of monks to explore.
"You have a lot of opportunities."
After sorting out the information in his mind, Chen Sheng couldn't help but sigh. Ye Ming had many opportunities in his life. No wonder he was able to become a Foundation Establishment cultivator as a casual cultivator.
"Without some capital, you are not qualified to be imprisoned in the Black Abyss Prison."
Ye Ming was not proud. Every prisoner in the Black Abyss Prison had a story and carried many secrets, but they just kept them hidden and refused to let go.
