The Eerie Immortal Path: Begin by Devouring Fairy Flesh

Chapter 45 – Ask Patricia Qing for a loan of some Purification Pills



When everything was over, dusk had already fallen.

After Brandon Jiang and the other children cleaned up Purple Lotus Peak, they were finally allowed to leave.

He touched his storage bag, where the talisman paper given by Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix lay quietly.

Unfortunately, although the talisman paper was valuable, it was unstable. And with his current status as a child, he couldn't get any evaluations, losing the means to obtain medicinal people.

This naturally hindered his plan to help Chu Jun break through to the Foundation Establishment Stage.

Although he learned news about Human Emperor City today, leaving the Heavenly Lotus Sect was still too far off for him. His original plans couldn't change.

No matter what he wanted to do, a reliable Foundation Establishment Stage backer was essential.

With this in mind, Brandon decided to seek advice from other children on Purple Lotus Peak to see how they earned their income.

The senior sisters were quite generous, sharing their money-making methods without reservation.

It turned out that the children on Purple Lotus Peak could sell the leftover scraps from Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix's talisman-making.

For example, the impurities called "Blood Sand" produced when making "Everyone Like Dragon Golden Thunder Sand."

These Blood Sands weren't unusable; they just didn't meet the quality requirements for making Foundation Establishment Stage talismans. However, they were more than sufficient for making Qi Refining Stage talismans.

Many Qi Refining Stage disciples under Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix would secretly contact the children to buy these things.

As for the price, it could range from a few hundred to even a thousand medicinal people, making it a highly profitable business with no cost.

Of course, such profits couldn't be made every day; it usually took several days to accumulate enough scraps.

However, there was a big taboo in this business: one must never deliberately lower the quality of talisman materials to produce more scraps.

If it exceeded a certain limit, the outcome would be like those three children who were personally turned into alchemy materials by Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix today.

Upon learning this, Brandon felt a bit regretful.

Speaking of alchemy impurities, he produced the most among the living children, but he had thrown them all away.

According to that senior sister, the value of his batch of Blood Sand was at least close to a thousand medicinal people.

What a pity. He must not make such a mistake again.@@novelbin@@

Knowing this new source of income, Brandon was temporarily relieved. Although it wasn't as good as the extra rewards after ten A-grade evaluations, it was enough for the short term.

Returning to Green Leaf Peak, he told Chu Jun about today's experiences and exchanged some feelings before going back to his place to cultivate.

But after cultivating for a while, Brandon frowned.

Although his cultivation had improved, it was far slower than after taking a Purification Pill.

It's easy to go from frugality to luxury, but hard to go from luxury to frugality!

The current cultivation speed was very unsatisfactory to him.

But to speed up his cultivation, Purification Pills were a necessary resource.

However, a single Purification Pill cost three thousand medicinal people, which he couldn't afford. Moreover, one pill wouldn't be enough to refine the vast spiritual energy in his body.

However, Brandon thought, since he was ostensibly working for Patricia Qing, and his poor cultivation hindered his work, shouldn't Patricia Qing support him?

It was worth a try. Since it was still early, Brandon hurried to Green Lotus Peak to visit Patricia Qing.

In the main hall, Patricia Qing looked at the talisman paper in her hand, her eyes full of joy.

"Brandon, your excellence really exceeded my expectations. Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix's reward is not easy to get."

Patricia Qing returned the talisman paper to Brandon, praising him with satisfaction.

Brandon quickly said, "Senior Sister, you flatter me. I was just lucky."

Then, he showed a worried expression and said, "I know myself best. My performance in the task was actually very poor. Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix rewarded me only because of Sister Yan's favor."

"If my personal abilities don't improve quickly, once this favor is used up, Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix's attitude towards me will definitely not be as good."

Hearing this, Patricia Qing's smile slightly faded, and she pondered.

After a moment, she asked, "What do you think I can help you with in your current predicament?"

Brandon immediately said, "I don't have much talent in talisman-making, but the children's work is mostly simple. If my cultivation improves, my progress should greatly increase."

At this point, Brandon showed a difficult expression again, "But I've already done my best in cultivating, using all the medicinal people from evaluations to exchange for Qi Gathering Pills, but I can't refine them quickly."

"So, I boldly want to ask Senior Sister to lend me a Purification Pill, so I can quickly break through to the third level of Qi Refining."

Hearing this, Patricia Qing smiled faintly, "That's not difficult. No need to borrow; I'll give it to you directly."

"One Purification Pill would make me seem stingy. Here are three Purification Pills; take them."

As she spoke, a jade bottle appeared out of thin air, floating in front of Brandon.

Brandon immediately showed an excited expression, flattering and praising Patricia Qing, making her very satisfied.

However, these three Purification Pills weren't given for free. Patricia Qing reminded him lightly, "Brandon, as long as you can maintain a good relationship with Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix, I can give you as many resources as you want."

"But correspondingly, if you make no progress and instead use the resources I give you for personal gain, don't blame me for turning against you!"

Brandon's heart tightened.

He was indeed playing with fire; a slight mistake could lead to a terrible end.

Fortunately, he was confident in fulfilling Patricia Qing's requirements, so he agreed without hesitation.

After obtaining the Purification Pills, Brandon returned to his place and immediately took one to start cultivating.

The effect of this treasure, worth three thousand mortals, was extraordinary. Coupled with the abundant spiritual energy in Brandon's Dantian, his cultivation speed began to soar.

After a night, the total amount of spiritual power in his body doubled, making a significant leap towards the third level of Qi Refining.

If everything went as expected, in two more days, after using up the three Purification Pills, his cultivation would definitely reach the third level of Qi Refining, and might even exceed it.

Such a terrifying cultivation speed would make other Qi Refining disciples insanely jealous if they knew.

Brandon clearly remembered that during his entry assessment, one examiner was middle-aged, and the other was old, yet they were still hovering around the third or fourth level of Qi Refining.

Disciples like these, who consistently received C-grade evaluations and lacked cultivation resources, couldn't afford a single pill in ten or even dozens of years. They were the majority in the Heavenly Lotus Sect.

The progress in his cultivation put Brandon in a great mood.

He left his place, first went to the cafeteria for a meal, and then headed to Purple Lotus Peak, planning to sell a batch of talisman material impurities for a profit.

However, as Brandon was on his way to Purple Lotus Peak, passing through a small path on Purple Leaf Peak, an unexpected change occurred.

Several white-robed disciples suddenly appeared, blocking Brandon's way.

Brandon's heart sank, but he remained calm and carefully observed the people blocking him.

There were four of them, all at the fourth or fifth level of Qi Refining.

If there was only one, he wouldn't be afraid, relying on his Daoist Arts, which were far more powerful than those of the same level. But now there were four.

If these four teamed up, no matter how strong his Daoist Arts were, he couldn't hurt them.

And they could easily do something to him!
