Chapter 67: Killing Time in Jail
Sun Zecheng was trapped in this small room, unable to go anywhere or go back, just like being in prison.

Fortunately, after building the foundation, you don’t need to eat, so you don’t have to worry about starving to death.

Since I can't get out, I might as well practice. The spiritual energy here is rich.

Sun Zecheng exhausted all his magic power but still could not make the golden control token move at all, so he simply meditated to recover his magic power. At the beginning, the recovery speed was extremely fast, but after recovering to a certain extent, the recovery speed immediately slowed down.

How is this going?

After a period of introspection and thinking, Sun Zecheng understood the scientific principles behind it.

Simply put, Dantian is like a ball. It is easy to pump air into it when there is no air in it at the beginning. However, when the air in it expands to a certain level, it becomes difficult to pump air into it.

The Prison God Art can lock the high-pressure spiritual energy inside and prevent it from leaking out. The air pressure inside the Dantian is much higher than the outside air pressure, and it requires the practitioner to work hard to press it into the Dantian bit by bit, so it is so difficult to practice!
The Qing Yuan Sword Technique does not have the function of locking up the vitality and mana. That is, once the pressure of the Qi that enters the Dantian is higher than normal, the excess will slowly dissipate. Therefore, starting from the fourth level, part of it will automatically dissipate within a few days after practicing. For every 10% increase in mana, 10% will dissipate. That's the reason!

Although the concentration of spiritual energy in the central area is much higher than that in ordinary environments, the air pressure is still normal. Therefore, after the mana is used up, the recovery speed is very fast at first, but when the mana is restored to a certain level, both recovery and cultivation are at one-fourth the speed.

In this case, after recovering his magic power and practicing for a few more days, Sun Zecheng confirmed that his practice speed was still as slow, and his motivation to practice was a little insufficient.

After practicing for a few more days, he was thinking about the Taotie treasure chest that had devoured so many monsters, rats, and a golden elixir from a secret shop. He estimated that they had been almost digested, so he released the Taotie treasure chest to receive the proceeds from the devouring.

With this reception, Sun Zecheng improved by three small steps, from the peak of the early stage of foundation building to the middle stage of foundation building, similar to jumping from the fourth level of Qi Refining Stage to the seventh level of Qi Refining Stage.

The Taotie treasure chest directly advances from the late stage of foundation building to the realm of fake elixir.

After receiving the profits, Sun Zecheng stopped practicing. How many years of hard practice would this swallowing be equivalent to?
If I think like this, I can’t continue practicing.

Originally, Sun Zecheng was not the kind of person who practiced in seclusion like Han Li. Now he found even more reasons to comfort himself. I am not on the path of ascetic practice. The practice is too slow. One swallowing lasts for several years... In short, I just don't want to meditate and practice anymore. I have many reasons.

If I don’t want to practice, then I don’t have to, but I have to do something to pass the time.

Sun Zecheng first counted the talismans, because after many consecutive battles, he actually didn't know how many talismans he had left, and the number of various talismans.

I have nothing to do right now.
After an inventory,
Current number of various talismans:

164 pieces of Stone Shield Talisman (primary upper-level earth shield)

Ice Shield Talisman (Primary Upper Level Water Shield) 138 pieces

Thunder Explosion Talisman (Primary Upper Level Thunder) 185 pieces

Fire Dragon Talisman (Primary and Advanced Fire Bomb) 175 pieces

Dungeon Talisman (Elementary to Advanced) 137 pieces

Stone Escape Talisman (Primary Upper Level Escape Talisman) 47 pieces

Escape Talisman (Elementary Intermediate) 99 pieces

120 pieces of Earth Escape Talisman (lower level)

These are all homemade and very powerful. Some are purchased but rarely used because they are not worth much if sold and I am too lazy to deal with them so I just leave them alone.

There are also some seized talismans, among which the most useful is probably the wood-type resurrection talisman, which can bring the dead back to life. It is a primary high-level healing talisman, and there are 16 of them in total.

The talismans were quickly counted.

Nothing to do,

Sun Zecheng was lying on the ground, feeling bored and lonely. Suddenly he thought of many things:
In the sealed cave, when I was about to leave, Sister Chen told me not to go;

At the Xizhou Desert Inn, when I was about to leave, Nangong Wan told me not to go;

Also, when she was about to leave in front of Elder Lei's cave in Huangfeng Valley, Nie Ying asked her to visit her often, and finally, she added, "I'll wait for you!"

... Immortal cultivators have very good memories. Whether it was Senior Sister Chen who was detoxified overnight, or Nangong Wan who entangled with them for thousands of miles, they all remembered them clearly, not to mention Nie Ying.

Every bit of past events comes to mind.

Smiling face like a flower, delicate body like fire,
In the cave, Senior Sister Chen was like an octopus clinging to him. She carried him into the secret cave and then frantically detoxified him...

In the forbidden area, in the underground swamp world, he kicked Han Li away, then Nangong Wan threw herself into his arms, and then he frantically detoxified her...

In the desert of Xizhou, in front of the abandoned inn, in the small five-element Xumi forbidden formation, she defeated Nangong Wan, and she closed her eyes and let him do whatever he wanted... At the peak of her joy, she suddenly activated the true art of reincarnation, with a strong suction force...

Outside the Green Wave Cave, on the mountainside pavilion, Nie Ying brushed her hair with her hand, smiling brightly under the sunlight, and the valley was eclipsed. On the Tianwutai stage, after defeating Lingshou Mountain, Nie Ying ran to him in joy and embraced him to celebrate. He hugged her soft body and got hard right away. Finally, in front of Elder Lei's cave, before he left, Nie Ying shouted, "I'll wait for you!"

……

Lonely days,
The more I miss you, the lonelier I feel.
Loneliness is like a poisonous snake biting at the mind... The Prison Cauldron Magic Art automatically operates and locks the mind!

can not be like this!

Something must be done!
I still have 1,800 pieces of blank green talisman paper and 31 bottles of purple talisman ink on me, which are just enough for drawing talismans.

Four months later, after consuming 1,200 pieces of green talisman paper and 19 bottles of purple talisman ink, the harvest was:

250 pieces of Stone Shield Talisman (primary upper-level earth shield)

Ice Shield Talisman (Primary Upper Level Water Shield) 100 pieces

Thunder Explosion Talisman (Primary Upper Level Thunder) 100 pieces

Fire Dragon Talisman (Primary and Advanced Fire Bomb) 100 pieces

Fire Prison Talisman (Elementary Upper Level): 100 pieces

Stone Escape Talisman (Primary and Upper Level): 50 pieces

Escape Talisman (Elementary Intermediate): 160 pieces

There are 860 pieces in total, 700 pieces of primary and upper-level talismans, with a success rate of 70%; 160 pieces of primary and intermediate-level talismans, with a success rate of 80%;

Sun Zecheng had been drawing talismans for four months when he suddenly felt that it was boring to draw the same talismans over and over again. With this thought in mind, he didn't want to draw anymore.

A self-strike, or a self-holiday.

Lie down. I won’t do this anymore if I don’t want to.

When will this jail term end?
Boredom and loneliness arose again, so I had to find something to do.

Sun Zecheng tried again and again to open the door's restriction, but in the end, it was of course in vain. Sun Zecheng also knew that he was a long way from the late Nascent Soul stage, so he had to give up.

Standing in front of the window, looking at the vague circular mountain range, he naturally thought of the time when he robbed Han Li in this bloody forbidden land.

What would happen if Han Erlangzi was here?
Sun Zecheng didn't know, but at least he knew that Han Li would not feel as bored and lonely as he did.

The spiritual energy here is so rich, he will probably immerse himself in cultivation. If he can grow some spiritual herbs here, Han Li might stay here for hundreds of years without any problem. He often goes into seclusion for dozens or hundreds of years.

In this sense, Han Li is a natural cultivator, and I am still a mortal at heart.

Or perhaps, Han Li was originally an immortal, and he himself was the true mortal cultivating immortality.

At this time, clouds and mist floated over the ring-shaped mountain range, revealing a huge rock on the top of the mountain. Sun Zecheng looked at the huge rock and fell into deep thought:
Speaking of cultivating immortality, if a person is trapped here alone, or like this rock on the ring mountain range, even if he can live forever and live as long as the heaven and earth, what's the point?
