Chapter 492: Chapter 295: The Emergence of Alien Consciousness

According to Chen Sheng’s conjecture,

If in his consciousness, there really is a so-called “Eighth Person”

Then there are two possibilities confronting him now.

First,

This consciousness hides within the activated desires, using these desires as a shell, making it impossible for Chen Sheng to detect any abnormalities.

If this is the possibility,

The next attempt by Chen Sheng might be able to force out this hidden consciousness.

Second,

The “Eighth Person” is hidden in some corner of Chen Sheng’s flesh or other parts of his soul.

And its strength is extremely powerful, making it impossible for Chen Sheng to discover.

However, Chen Sheng thinks the probability of this is not high.

Because if the other party really possesses the ability to hide in any corner of his body without being discovered,

Then there was no need to stop Sloth from revealing the truth earlier, it could simply hide away.

The risk of exposing its own existence to stop Sloth,

Must be because what Sloth was going to divulge potentially poses a threat to the other party.

But if even what an activated desire says could threaten this so-called “Eighth Person”

Chen Sheng thinks,

Perhaps the other party might be… unexpectedly weak.

However,

This is just conjecture.

Moreover, Chen Sheng has never had the habit of assuming his enemy to be weaker.

He only has the habit of imagining his adversaries to be as formidable as possible and only when he’s sure that he can crush them does he feel at ease.

And these two possibilities,

Chen Sheng has to exclude them one by one.

Starting from the first possibility.

If the enemy is hiding within the activated desires,

Then… what would happen if he simultaneously pulls all the remaining five activated desires into his body?

It sounds insane.

After all, Chen Sheng barely managed when he was just trying to pull in one type of desire.

Not to mention simultaneously pulling in five.

But the reason he is using this method,

Lies in the fact that drawing desires into the body must go through a process.

Panel upgrades.

The power of the panel, Chen Sheng has already experienced it deeply.

It was capable of forcibly seizing authority during the upgrade of the Profound and True Martial Arts.

It was also able to complete the cultivation of Sloth as well as Anger when his consciousness was not clear.

Simultaneously,

After spending a long time with the Panel,

Chen Sheng gradually figured out.

The panel upgrading of cultivation techniques isn’t as simple as achieving mastery.

It also perfects the cultivation directly to “perfection”.

For instance, Profound and True Martial Arts.

When the previous Xuanwu of the Holy Sect displayed the special abilities of this breathing technique, the extent to which his body was enhanced was far from as absurd as Chen Sheng’s.

And Chen Sheng learned from his previous conversations with Sun Yihe and Li Wuji that different cultivators of the same secret skill might have different discrepancies.

Like the Holy Scripture of Withering and Flourishing.

Chen Sheng is not the first cultivator.

But when Sun Yihe first obtained this secret skill, its previous master at the first level stage could only just barely store triple his strength within his body.

And this,

Is already the strongest cultivator of the Holy Scripture of Withering and Flourishing since its creation.

Yet Chen Sheng…

The theoretical maximum value of a cultivation technique is how much,

The strength after the panel upgrades, is just as much.

If there’s a strong factor causing Chen Sheng to be unable to upgrade,

Such as his spiritual power being insufficient,

Then,

The panel won’t provide an upgrade option.

But once the upgrade begins,

The panel will resist all interfering factors, ensuring Chen Sheng can perfectly upgrade.

Therefore,

What Chen Sheng intends to do now,

Is to first draw in one activated desire.

Wait until the channel between the desire and the flesh is open, bind it first.

Then one by one, pull in all desires into his body, and use the panel to upgrade.

If the so-called “Eighth Person’s” consciousness is truly hiding within the activated desires,

Then during the upgrading process, the panel certainly will not tolerate such an “aberration”.

At that time.

If things go smoothly, perhaps the consciousness of this eighth person would be completely dissipated.

This point, he can ask from the newly born Seed of Desire.

But if, things truly develop in the worst direction,

Chen Sheng can only resort to other methods, and begin to seek ways to treat it.

Upon thinking of this,

Chen Sheng immediately gathered his mind, and began to release the desires within his body.

Arrogant.

Extreme haughtiness, making one disdain everything.

But compared to Anger and Sloth,

This desire does not have much of an impact on Chen Sheng.

Perhaps it’s because he himself is extremely arrogant.

Chen Sheng’s arrogance isn’t outwardly shown.

But quite early on, he had already realized.

With his strength growing stronger each day,

His disregard for weak lives is increasingly apparent.

This is a change that’s hard to resist.

Chen Sheng’s power is too overpowering.

Just a simple breath can generate a gust that can instantly kill an ordinary person, or even a martial artist.

When with others,

Chen Sheng needs to constrain his strength at all times, so as not to harm other people unintentionally.

This feeling is not exactly pleasant.

It’s like a giant trapped in an ant’s kingdom.

Every breath,

Every tiny movement,

For these fragile lives, are all catastrophic.

And when he killed Xiang Li and the Respected Elder,

It wasn’t for the so-called peace of humans or for the excuse of the Martial Arts Association.

The other party provoked him,

And was also a rather annoying bug.

That’s all.

Therefore,

When the sensation of arrogance flooded his body,

The change in Chen Sheng was merely the addition of a bit more apathy in those pure white eyes of his.

In less than an hour,

Chen Sheng had already opened the channel between consciousness and flesh and pulled Arrogance near the channel.
