Chapter 44 – Sustainable development of the Heavenly Lotus Sect
Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix held a soul sphere wrapped in spirit talismans in her hand, with vast amounts of spiritual power visibly flowing into the talisman paper.
In an instant, all the spirit talismans emitted various colors of light.
However, the effect of these spirit talismans was not directed outward but inward, seemingly refining something within.
This high-level refining technique left Brandon Jiang utterly confused; he couldn't grasp the method at all and could only wait silently for the result.
The Foundation Establishment disciples and Qi Refining elites observing the process were equally focused and tense.
It didn't matter if Brandon couldn't understand these techniques, but if they couldn't, they would be in big trouble!
After more than an hour, the light emitted by the numerous spirit talismans almost merged into one, forming a glowing cocoon.
Moments later, the surface of the cocoon fluctuated, as if something inside was trying to break free.
Crack—
Suddenly, with a crisp sound, the cocoon broke open.
A small figure emitting white light jumped out.
This little figure looked very much like the man from Human Emperor City but much younger, like a child.
His expression was full of innocence, ignoring his original self not far away, and floated in front of Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix, kneeling respectfully:
"Master!"
Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix nodded slightly.
The scene of this stunning fairy and the kneeling white figure was like a creator giving birth to new life, filled with sanctity and nobility.
No one would have thought that this white figure was once the soul essence of one of her enemies.
The man witnessing this struggled desperately, his eyes filled with extraordinary rage.
Brandon Jiang was secretly amazed; Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix's methods were terrifying.
The soul of a late Foundation Establishment cultivator was so easily refined by her into a completely loyal new entity.
Considering the materials needed for Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix to refine a True Talisman, this little figure was likely the spirit of the Dragon Thunder True Talisman.
Sure enough, Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix instructed the white figure:
"You are the spirit of the talisman, and you must merge into the True Talisman, to be controlled by me. Do you agree?"
"I agree."
The white figure bowed respectfully and turned into a beam of light, swiftly entering the Dragon Thunder Talisman.
Immediately, Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix picked up her brush again, drawing new runes on the nearly completed Dragon Thunder True Talisman.
Gradually, the fluctuations emitted by the Dragon Thunder Talisman became more stable and subdued, as if it had truly turned into a piece of paper, no longer possessing that world-destroying aura.
After a long time, Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix finally stopped writing.
A dazzling light shone from the talisman paper in front of her, blindingly bright!
The Dragon Thunder True Talisman was complete!
As the light faded, the aura of the True Talisman was fully restrained, yet it possessed an unimaginable liveliness, actively flying off the platform and circling around Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix.
Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix held the True Talisman in her hand, examining it with satisfaction.
Even for her, refining the Dragon Thunder True Talisman was an extremely difficult task, with a success rate of less than thirty percent.
But she had succeeded. From now on, she would always have the assistance of a late Foundation Establishment combat power in battle, until the talisman spirit was completely exhausted.
If she were to sell it, the benefits she would gain would far exceed the resources consumed in refining the talisman, as well as the time and effort spent.
Brandon Jiang was equally excited. With the True Talisman refined, the man from Human Emperor City wouldn't have to die, and he could find a way to get information from him in the future.
Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix also looked at the man, saying indifferently:
"Take him away and let him recover well for future use."
"Yes!"
Elizabeth Chun and Barbara Xia nodded respectfully, dragging the man away.
Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix then looked at the ten Foundation Establishment disciples seated below and asked:
"Do you know what is most important in cultivation?"
Having reached the Foundation Establishment stage, they naturally understood the rules well, and someone immediately responded:
"Senior Sister, I believe the most important thing in cultivation is resources."
Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix nodded:
"Correct, it is indeed resources."
"However, with the development of our Heavenly Lotus Sect and the surrounding major forces, as the number of cultivators increases, the resources allocated to each of us decrease."
"Until the resource issue is completely resolved, everyone in our sect must learn to conserve resources, not waste them, and not destroy sacrificial furnaces recklessly just for fun. We must learn sustainable resource development."
She pointed to the man being taken away:@@novelbin@@
"For example, he is a late Foundation Establishment cultivator, an extremely precious resource."
"As long as he has a breath left, he must be kept alive, his injuries healed, for future use, rather than being drained dry. Understand?"
The Foundation Establishment disciples nodded solemnly, all showing deep agreement.
But Brandon Jiang found it somewhat amusing.
A demonic sect that absorbs the power of living people for cultivation actually understands sustainable resource development? What a cruel joke.
But then, Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix changed the subject:
"You have all seen the process of refining a True Talisman. Now it's time for today's assessment."
"Be prepared, don't disappoint me!"
At the end of her speech, a trace of inexplicable excitement and cruelty appeared in her beautiful eyes.
Hearing this, many Qi Refining disciples instantly turned pale, cold sweat pouring down.
The difficulty of making a True Talisman far exceeded their imagination. In the face of such advanced techniques, they felt like a bunch of fools, unable to understand anything.
If their answers did not satisfy Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix, their fate would be dire!
Sandra Ye's questioning began.
Regardless of whether they were in Foundation Establishment or Qi Refining, she treated them equally, asking equally difficult questions.
In the Heavenly Lotus Sect, no one would go easy on you because you didn't understand, because you were weak, or because you were a newcomer!
In no time, several Qi Refining elites received D-grade evaluations for failing to answer or answering completely wrong.
Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix did not wait for the Enforcement Hall's follow-up investigation, immediately suspending all unqualified individuals in mid-air, beginning a terrifying torture.
However, Foundation Establishment disciples receiving a D-grade evaluation would not face such punishment, nor would they die, but they might lose an arm or a leg.
Such injuries were minor for Foundation Establishment disciples and would heal quickly.
Brandon Jiang watched this hellish scene, feeling a chill in his heart. A demon is always a demon; no matter how kind they appear, their nature never changes.

Though he was safe for now, who knew when he might share the same fate as these people.
With this thought, Brandon Jiang's desire to leave the Heavenly Lotus Sect grew stronger.
But then, Brandon Jiang seemed to think of something, murmuring in surprise:
"However, Yan Baobao had an accident yesterday, and Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix refined the Dragon Thunder True Talisman today. Is it really a coincidence?"
"Or did Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix deliberately kill to vent her grief and sorrow over Yan Baobao's death?"
"If that's the case, she may be cruel, but she has a touch of humanity."
"But I can't rely on someone else's mercy for my survival."
What do you think?
