2985 Confession, confusion _1

The surrounding cultivators were terrified by the old man’s interrogation methods.

They secretly imagined the scene of this method being used on them. It would really be worse than death.

This was the risk that one had to bear in cultivation. One would never know what kind of terrifying things one would encounter.

If they were mortals, their experiences would be much simpler. It would be nothing more than birth, old age, illness, and death, plus some joys and sorrows.

The life of a cultivator was always full of unknown. No one knew how it would end.

The strong cultivator was in great pain, but he still persevered. He was obviously not willing to give in.

He could die, but he wouldn’t get any benefits from his enemies.

Soon, he sadly discovered that he had underestimated the old man’s torture methods, or rather, he was not that strong.

This kind of acupuncture technique that tortured mortals brought him indescribable pain. He had never encountered this in his many years of cultivation.

After holding on for less than ten minutes, one of his eyeb.a.l.l.s exploded from the heavy load. The strong cultivator finally chose to surrender.

The old man reached out his hand and pulled out the wooden needle that was locking his throat. The robust cultivator let out a long sigh of relief.

It was as if a person who was about to drown had finally taken a breath of air, and his entire body was twitching and trembling.

“Tell me, what do you know?”

The old man didn’t waste any words and asked in a cold tone.

“He already knows everything I know, so why are you asking me?”

The robust cultivator asked, but his heart was already dead.

“Cut the c.r.a.p. Tell me everything you know, and I’ll decide whether or not I’ll let you die a quick death.”

At this moment, the old man was completely different from his usual image of teaching his disciples. There was no trace of a kind smile on his face.

It could only be said that he was perfectly playing his role at this moment.

“Alright, I’ll tell you.”

The strong cultivator spoke slowly in a low voice, and the surrounding cultivators listened attentively.

As expected, the use of food was to satisfy hunger and sacrifice, and to heal the body after being injured.

Using food to summon a tentacle sea monster was something that every cultivator could only use once. Tang Zhen and the others already knew about this.

After the sacrifice, sea monsters would definitely appear. They must devour the corpses before they could leave. Tang Zhen and the others were also clear about this.

What was truly valuable was the information behind it.

What the cultivators had to do was to find a way to survive and slowly wait for a big s.h.i.+p to appear.

After boarding the s.h.i.+p, the s.h.i.+p would lead the cultivators to a mysterious island.

When he reached the island, he would be able to get what he wanted.

When robust said this, he was already on the verge of death.

Up until now, he had not taken any food and was already in a state of extreme hunger.

It was already a miracle that he was still alive after being tortured.

The old man turned his head and looked at Tang Zhen. He wanted to confirm if the robust cultivator was telling the truth.

After all, in the old man’s eyes, Tang Zhen was the same as the robust cultivator. They were both people who had experienced the same scene.

“He’s lying, he’s not telling the truth.”

Looking at the dying cultivator, Tang Zhen said in a faint tone with a touch of inquiry in his eyes.

Before this guy died, he probably wouldn’t leave any real information for his enemies to benefit from.

Therefore, the content that he said should be half true and half false. The purpose of doing so was to deceive Tang Zhen.

A truly perfect scam often had nine truths and one lie, making it impossible to guard against.

The other possibility was that the well-built cultivator was telling the truth without hiding anything.

This denial from Tang Zhen would be a fatal blow to him.

The purpose of telling the truth was to obtain the opportunity to survive. However, Tang Zhen’s denial had completely severed his life.

Tang Zhen’s other purpose was to confuse the other cultivators and make them unable to determine the authenticity of the confession.

His greatest advantage now was that people mistook him for having experienced a similar scene and knew many secrets.

This was the main reason why the cultivators followed his orders.

If everyone knew the secret, they could act alone or form a team.

Tang Zhen was very clear that all cultivators were very interested in the secrets of the strong cultivators.

If Tang Zhen were to secretly interrogate them alone, not only would it cause dissatisfaction among the cultivators, but it would also prevent the strong cultivators from revealing the real secret.

If he were to publicly interrogate him, this fellow might very likely reveal all his secrets for the purpose of revenge before he died, leaving Tang Zhen with no advantage to speak of.

However, with Tang Zhen’s denial, all the hidden dangers disappeared.

Because he had the same experience, he knew whether the robust cultivator was telling the truth or not. The other cultivators couldn’t do this.

The other cultivators were suspicious, but they didn’t have enough evidence.

Therefore, the only choice was to continue following Tang Zhen. Everyone would continue to act together.

No one knew that Tang Zhen was actually half-believing and half-doubting as he was a.n.a.lyzing the strong cultivator’s confession.

The old man frowned after hearing Tang Zhen’s words.

The robust cultivator had been reduced to such a state, yet he still wanted to play tricks and trick everyone before he died.

Of course, he was also suspicious that Tang Zhen had deliberately said this. The purpose was to make everyone unable to determine the authenticity of the confession.

However, on second thought, he felt that something was wrong.

If he was afraid that others would hear him, Tang Zhen could completely drive the boat away and interrogate him alone.

Or, he could ask him to interrogate him from a distance and keep the secret in the hands of a few people, instead of letting everyone know like this.

The old man sighed in his heart. Tang Zhen’s actions were indeed a little amazing.

He then secretly observed the cultivators around him. As expected, their expressions kept changing, and they all chose to remain silent in the end.

Everyone was clear that it was best not to get involved at this time to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings.

The well-built cultivator was already like a lamp without oil. He only had one eye left and was currently staring at Tang Zhen.

“Hehehehehehehe.”

He still let out a weak sneer, which seemed to be full of mockery.

He did not know if it was directed at him or Tang Zhen.

At this moment, a cultivator suddenly shouted a warning. A sea monster had appeared in front of them.

As long as he used the food to summon the tentacle monster, the real sea monster would definitely appear. He was just a little late this time.

“Throwing him down can be considered as recycling waste.”

Tang Zhen turned around and expressionlessly gave the order when he saw the monster that was rapidly approaching from the bottom of the sea.

The cultivator who had been framed by the strong cultivator and was seriously injured immediately stepped forward to untie the chain.

“You want to kill me, but you’re the one who dies in the end. How ironic!”

The strong cultivator closed his eyes and did not react at all.

“Go to h.e.l.l, you b.a.s.t.a.r.d!”

Looking at the sea monster that was approaching quickly, the cultivator threw the strong cultivator into the sea.

The sea monster fell into the water without a sound, but it opened its mouth and swallowed the strong cultivator into its stomach.

Tang Zhen stood at the bow of the s.h.i.+p. His gaze pierced through the dark green sea surface and saw the true form of the monster.

It was a huge snake with a transparent body. The wriggling body was filled with the undying remains of the dead cultivators.

A thought flashed across Tang Zhen’s mind. If this was a survival game that lasted for a long time, this enormous sea monster might also be used as food.

After all, nothing was impossible for cultivators.
