You dare to cultivate without money?!

Chapter 1263 - 818: Taizhen’s Choice, [Immortal Descendant] Level 5

The revolutionary Immortal Dao technology known as artificial flesh and artificial soul essence was born in the hands of the Wanfa Sect.

Through mass-produced artificial flesh and soul essence, all the casting materials needed for demon techniques and demon treasures can be obtained from harmlessly, mass-produced materials.

This innovative approach and technology were first applied on the front lines of the Great War of Righteous and Demonic, allowing the Wanfa Sect to achieve several consecutive victories, gaining advantage after advantage.

The Righteous Sects were all elated and eagerly purchased artificial flesh and soul essence in large quantities from the Wanfa Sect to cope with the pressure from the demonic path.

For a time, the righteous light shone brilliantly, gradually gaining the upper hand in the Great War of Righteous and Demonic, completely suppressing the demonic sects that once dominated.

In this context, the number of business operations of the Wanfa Sect’s Demon Supervision Hall rapidly declined, simply because all the righteous cultivators could use artificial materials as ingredients, no longer needing to consume mortals.

But just when Li Feng also felt comforted, feeling a glimpse of victory, a case completely changed his life.

Li Feng originally thought it was just an ordinary case of a missing mortal, but when this case was linked to another case of a missing cultivator, he found something was amiss.

"Why would a mortal disappearance lead to a cultivator also missing?"

"Did this cultivator discover something and was silenced?"

Li Feng continued his investigation, only to find the case increasingly complicated, even relating to previous cases where many mortals were blood sacrificed, had their souls extracted, were abducted, and went missing.

Until he came to an underground factory, where a batch after batch of mortals... were sent naked onto the production line like pigs, cows, and sheep.

They screamed, cried, and struggled as they were hooked up and slaughtered, dismembered, and had their souls extracted amidst a bloody scene...

Flesh, organs, bone, human tendons... various things extracted from the human body were used as raw materials, made into various Immortal Materials.

At this moment, Li Feng finally understood, there was no breakthrough technology for artificial flesh and soul essence.

The breakthrough was merely in certain rapid breeding technology, raising humans like livestock to quickly grow, quickly nurture, becoming the raw material for Immortal Dao.

Watching living people being turned into meat paste, Li Feng shouted angrily, intending to stop it, yet felt goosebumps all over his body, as surges of electric light flickered around him.

This familiar feeling startled Li Feng’s heart; he turned, looked at the visitor, and said, "Senior Sister? Did you also find this place? Listen to me..."

But as Li Feng explained the case, he found the face of Yun Taizhen remained calm, with not a single trace of emotional fluctuation.

Li Feng’s heart sank, hoarsely saying, "Senior Sister, did you know all along?"

A flash of insight struck his mind as various past cases surfaced in his mind: "The people who went missing before, those mortals who were blood sacrificed, who were abducted... they were all herded here, becoming the source of rapid breeding."

"Senior Sister, it was you covering all this up, only the Hall Master of the Demon Supervision Hall like you can manage this!"

Facing Li Feng’s questioning, Yun Taizhen said nothing, only forming a Taoist Technique with her hands. Accompanied by a flash of thunder and lightning, the factory in front of them expanded, revealing a deeper scene.

It was countless human bodies similar to Yun Taizhen’s, being disassembled into different parts amidst waves of wailing and screaming, made into different products.

Yun Taizhen said indifferently, "I was among the first batch of experimental subjects, but my breeding speed was too slow, the variety too single, thus requiring more people’s sacrifices."

Seeing those familiar figures sliced limb by limb in despair and cries, organs excavated, souls extracted... Li Feng felt a chill surge into his heart.

He turned his head to look at Yun Taizhen, only to see at this moment she seemed so engulfed in Demonic Qi, so eerie and bizarre.

Yun Taizhen, however, said calmly, "Junior Brother Feng, now all the Righteous Sects use the artificial flesh and soul essence produced by me."

"Medicines, cultivation resources, treasure refining materials, casting blood food... even the food consumed daily, have already incorporated these."

"The whole sect is eating my flesh, drinking my blood."

Li Feng roared, "You’re insane!"

Yun Taizhen smiled, saying, "Junior Brother Feng, do you remember what I said? Whether it is a demon path resides in a single thought."

"As long as the world doesn’t know what’s happening here, as long as they don’t know where their food and uses come from, don’t know about the existence of these rapidly bred people, then they are still the righteous path."

"Conversely, if they know all this, then the Righteous Sects become the Demon Path."

Upon hearing this, Li Feng trembled: "What exactly are you up to? Have you long fallen into the Demon Path? Are you going to drag the Wanfa Sect, the Righteous Sects, all into the Demon Path?"

Yun Taizhen shook her head, lightning flashed, and she was already in front of Li Feng.

She gently touched Li Feng’s head as she did in the past, softly saying, "The Demon Path... arises from the heart, vanishes with the heart. As long as nobody knows what happens here, as long as I bear all this, the righteous path remains the righteous path."

Li Feng stared hard at the gentle Senior Sister in front of him, speaking word by word: "It can’t be hidden forever, it will eventually be exposed, you will drag all the factions into the abyss."
