Zhuxiashan, a quiet courtyard.

A lot of changes have taken place here.

Many years ago, Mo Dahai set up a spirit gathering array here. When spiritual energy gathered, the courtyard became more lively.

Mr. Chen also renovated the dilapidated courtyard wall and scattered magical herb seeds in some corners, which have already taken root and sprouted.

In this way, the once dilapidated and remote courtyard became elegant, and even the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was no worse than any other residence.

"First, practice the four seals of Qimen, then practice light and shadow."

Mr. Chen was in the courtyard, with the practice method of the Four Qimen Seals floating in his mind. His hands were subconsciously and slowly forming seals, which seemed very incoherent.

He was not impatient, but continued to make seals. If he failed the first time, he would start the second time.

Gradually, he grasped the secret of practicing the Four Qimen Seals.

The pinching of fingers and the making of seals must be in line with a special rhythm, so that even if it is very slow, there will be no interruption in the casting.

The process of trying to form seals is rather boring, even more boring than practicing the Star-Slashing Technique. There is no visible effect, and it will only be powerful if it is in harmony.

finally……

After failing more than a hundred times, Chen Sheng finally matched one of the four seals of Qimen and briefly exerted its power.

This seal is called the Qi Tian Seal. When it is cast, its force is in harmony with the sky, and the vast atmosphere will make those who are hit by it feel oppressed and have nowhere to hide.

"The seal-making speed is too slow. I need to increase my proficiency."

After refining the Qi Tian Yin, Chen Sheng looked very calm, without any pride.

Moreover, this kind of spell casting and hand seal making is not yet proficient, and it will be easily interrupted if encountering elite disciples from the outer sect.

All he had to do was to become fast, so fast that the seal was completed before his opponent could even react.

Next, Mr. Chen worked on improving his proficiency.

At the beginning, Chen Sheng couldn't even perform the Qi Tian Yin neatly, and sometimes the spell would collapse due to errors in rhythm.

Mr. Chen could accept this kind of failure. He remained calm and composed, but he just worked even harder.

The golden crow sets in the west and night falls.

Chen Sheng's figure was gradually shrouded in darkness. His heart, like the darkness, became grand and heavy. In the invisible place, the seals on his hands were almost forming phantoms.

Buzz...

This time, he succeeded in forming the seal in an instant, and without any flaw. The entire night was illuminated, and the Qimen Seal was bright and generous, with its power in harmony with the heaven, showing a grand and powerful meaning.

"I have finally cultivated the Qi Tian Seal, one of the Four Qi Men Seals, to the point where I am able to do it smoothly and smoothly."

A smile appeared on Chen Sheng's face. The process of practicing the Qi Tian Yin was extremely arduous. His magic power was always insufficient, and his ten fingers were almost cramped from pinching each other.

But it’s all worth it. After accepting the results, a strong sense of pride arises in my heart, and even my spirit becomes bright.

The four Qimen seals are Qitian seal, Qifang seal, Qixu seal and Qishen seal.

The four seals each have their own characteristics.

The Qi Tian Seal has the power of heaven and is vast and majestic.

The strange square seal, the four directions are at my disposal, and life force is eliminated.

The strange and empty seal is dark and empty, without any spiritual energy.

The strange divine seal shakes the soul platform and hurts the mind.

Each of the Four Qimen Seals is more powerful than the other, and can be transformed into a sequence combination, one in each hand, superimposed on each other. Their power is extremely strong among the techniques of the Qi Refining Realm.

Mr. Chen spent nearly half a month practicing the Qimen Seal before he was able to completely master it.

After that, he did not rest because the outer sect competition would start the next day.

He also has a light and shadow escape technique, which he has not yet practiced.

This is the difference in aptitude and understanding. Let Chen Ergou practice the Four Qimen Seals. He can master them skillfully in just one night.

This is a common phenomenon among low-level cultivators. They use time to pile up everything, and in the end, they don’t have enough time and die of old age in the Qi Refining Stage.

Mr. Chen is a special case, so he thinks this method is very good. It is not efficient, but as long as he persists, he will succeed.

"Staying up all night to cultivate immortality, you can't give up the light and shadow escape technique."

For most of the rest of the day, he chose to specialize in the light and shadow escape technique. In the outer sect competition, there were always some people who were more timid, so the power of the Four Qimen Seals was greatly reduced.

At that time, light and shadow could prevent him from being killed.

The light from the sky shines on the ground, forming shadows.

The magic power in Chen Sheng's body filled his entire body, especially his feet. He took mysterious steps, bumping into things, and it felt like he was stepping on his own shadow.

It looks a little funny.

However, this was because Chen Sheng was not yet proficient in it. When the real light and shadow escape technique was performed, his figure was graceful, like a ghost or god patrolling the sky, and the enemy could not reach him. It was very magical.

"Fortunately, there is no one around, otherwise I would not be able to practice the Light and Shadow Escape Technique."

Mr. Chen practiced the light and shadow escape technique. It was not appropriate to describe it as a shaman dance. Everything felt wrong and there was no sense of harmony.

The escape method is a fusion of speed and skill, with an emphasis on naturalness. The more natural it is, the more perfect the control over these two qualities has been achieved.

The unfortunate thing about him is that he is a person without talent and cannot achieve success overnight.

It was not until the sun set that Chen Sheng began to have some understanding.

"Without light there is no shadow. Even if the sun is gone, a night-shining pearl will do."

Chen Sheng groped in the dark and placed night pearls on the walls and trees. Although this kind of thing is very precious in the mortal world, in the immortal sect, one spirit stone can be exchanged for a basketful of them.

The brightness of the night pearl is not as scorching as that of the sun, but when it blends with the moonlight, it illuminates the courtyard incomparably bright.

Chen Sheng continued to practice the light and shadow escape technique. In the silent night, his heart became calm and his five senses increased. He could even feel the shattering sound of his sweat drops.

His figure no longer had the initial twists and turns, but instead had a mysterious charm, like a ghost moving in the clouds and mist, making it impossible to understand.

That night, Chen Sheng's figure was all over the courtyard, like a night owl, dancing freely.

Until...

The sky brightened again, and the red and golden sun slowly rose from the top of the mountain, casting its scorching rays on his face.

His physical fatigue seemed to be healed instantly, and he felt warm all over.

"Just rinse off, and we'll be almost ready to go to the competition's training grounds."

Mr. Chen ran back to his room, used magic to burn a full bath tub, walked into it, and washed away all the dirt and fatigue on his body.

When he came ashore again, his mental state was pretty good, especially after he changed into a set of clean white uniform robes, he looked like an immortal.

"The competition is about to start, let's go."

As soon as he opened the door, Mr. Chen was stunned.

He saw Deacon Zhou, Mo Dahai and Lu Zhu. The three of them were standing in the courtyard, excited but with a hint of impatience, just like the family members of the candidates.

"Why are you here?"

Mr. Chen said in surprise.

"I'm cheering you on."

“Let’s go…”

"There are disciples of the outer sect elders. The two deacons are standing behind you. Those outer sect disciples who can beat you won't go that far."

Chen Sheng was being dragged away, with Luzhu chattering along the way. In a daze, they arrived at the martial arts arena for the outer sect competition.
