The Eerie Immortal Path: Begin by Devouring Fairy Flesh-Chapter 59 – Clue of Human Emperor City

"The fact that I am responsible for feeding you proves my status in Purple Lotus Peak. Do you think I lack resources?"

Benjamin Qiao scrutinized Brandon Jiang more seriously and said:

"It seems you haven't been too deeply poisoned by the Heavenly Lotus Sect. You still retain some normal human values."

But then, he shook his head regretfully:

"Unfortunately, I can't teach you. The cultivation methods of Human Emperor City only work within the main city and its major branches. If it weren't so, we would have spread the methods to the masses long ago, and these demonic sects wouldn't be running rampant."

Brandon Jiang felt a bit disappointed upon hearing this.

Seeing his reaction, Benjamin Qiao continued:

"Although the methods of Human Emperor City can't be used outside, and even within the city, the cultivation speed is slower than those demonic sects' methods, the greatest advantage is that it doesn't require a Sacrificial Furnace. One only needs to directly absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth."

"Every cultivator who joins Human Emperor City doesn't need to fight and kill for resources. They just need to meditate quietly, and their cultivation and lifespan will continuously increase, achieving the Dao."

Brandon Jiang nodded. It's normal for righteous methods to have slower cultivation speeds compared to these demonic sects' evil methods, as they don't rely on external forces.

But even with the drawback of slow cultivation speed, Brandon Jiang still yearned for it.

The Heavenly Lotus Sect was simply too dangerous.

He tentatively asked:

"Where exactly is Human Emperor City? How can one join it?"

Benjamin Qiao said solemnly:

"I can't tell you that. The location of every branch of Human Emperor City is a top secret. If discovered by those demonic sects, it would surely be attacked."

"Although you seem to yearn for the righteous path, I can't trust you yet."

"I can only tell you that I come from a branch of Human Emperor City near the Heavenly Lotus Sect. In that city, the people live and work in peace, and my family and friends are still waiting for my return."

At this point, he suddenly shook his head with a bitter smile:

"But they probably won't be able to wait for me."

There is a branch of Human Emperor City close to the Heavenly Lotus Sect!

Brandon Jiang's heart trembled. If Benjamin Qiao's description of Human Emperor City was true, he would undoubtedly defect and join Human Emperor City without hesitation.

However, no matter how much he yearned for the true righteous forces, Brandon Jiang wouldn't believe Benjamin Qiao's words alone.

He said in a deep voice:

"It's normal for you not to trust me. Actually, I don't trust you either."

"Is Human Emperor City really that good? Can you really cultivate without absorbing others' power? How can you prove you're not lying to me?"

Benjamin Qiao smiled and said:

"Aren't I the best proof? I never devour people, and my cultivation wasn't gained by absorbing others' power."

"Is that so? Then tell me, how did you cultivate?"

Brandon Jiang asked pointedly:

"Your cultivation method must be different from ours."

Benjamin Qiao didn't hide anything and spoke openly:

"In Human Emperor City, every child with potential is taught the unique Human Dao cultivation method."

"Relying on the Human Dao method and the unique Human Dao formation of Human Emperor City, the spiritual energy entering the city changes!"

"This world loves slaughter, so living beings need to rely on slaughter to gain spiritual energy. But after the spiritual energy is transformed by the Human Dao formation, it becomes compatible with the Human Dao. As long as one is human, they can absorb it freely and cultivate!"

"We use Human Dao spiritual energy to grow herbs and refine pills."

"We turn spiritual plants into talisman paper and craft talismans."

"We mine veins and refine these ores into artifacts without using humans as materials."

"Our Daoist Arts are balanced and peaceful, requiring only one's own comprehension and spiritual power to perform, without any other harmful auxiliary means."

"…"

Benjamin Qiao spoke at length, each point stirring Brandon Jiang's heart.

This... this is what he imagined cultivation to be like!

Moreover, Benjamin Qiao spoke so vividly, clearly having seen these things himself. If it were another cultivator who grew up absorbing others' power, their mindset would be fixed, and they wouldn't be able to imagine what cultivation without devouring people would be like.

But Brandon Jiang still didn't relax and asked again:

"Then tell me, how do you establish your foundation in Human Emperor City?"

"In the Heavenly Lotus Sect, to establish a foundation, one needs a Foundation Establishment Pill made from the three bases of heaven, earth, and human, and the materials for these three bases come from the life force of mortals..."

Before Brandon Jiang could finish, Benjamin Qiao interrupted emotionally:

"That's where these demonic sects went wrong!"

"Foundation establishment indeed requires the unity of the three bases of heaven, earth, and human, but it absolutely doesn't require human lives!"

"When I established my foundation, I didn't need any Foundation Establishment Pill! I succeeded just by absorbing the energy of heaven and earth!"

"Oh, tell me in detail how you did it."

Brandon Jiang asked eagerly.

Benjamin Qiao explained:

"In Human Emperor City, the three bases of heaven, earth, and human represent the light and clear energy of the sky, the heavy and turbid energy of the earth, and the human energy cultivated by one's own good deeds!"

"When human energy accumulates to its peak, and then one guides the energy of the sky and the earth to balance the three energies, one can establish the Dao foundation and complete the transformation!"

Brandon Jiang was slightly stunned and couldn't help but speculate in his heart. Could this be the correct interpretation of the three bases of heaven, earth, and human?

It sounded much more reasonable than the three main materials for refining the Foundation Establishment Pill.

After hearing Benjamin Qiao's detailed explanation, Brandon Jiang finally believed in the authenticity of Human Emperor City to a large extent.

Although there was still a possibility it was false, it was worth the risk!

With this in mind, Brandon Jiang said:

"I believe you, but how can I make you believe me and tell me the exact location of Human Emperor City?"

Hearing this question, Benjamin Qiao fell silent.

After a long time, he said:

"To be honest, I don't know how to completely trust you!"

"Since I've been captured, whether I die or not, even if I escape one day, I won't return there."

"Only this way can I ensure the exact location of Human Emperor City won't be discovered."

Hearing this, Brandon Jiang believed Benjamin Qiao even more.

If this person were a liar, he would probably be urging him to find a way to release him. Instead, he blocked that path himself.

In other words, he could no longer bring any benefit to him.

If Benjamin Qiao were really a liar, would he risk his life just to deceive a mere Qi Refining cultivator like him?

It wouldn't benefit him at all!

But at the same time, Brandon Jiang felt a bit troubled.

Benjamin Qiao was willing to completely sacrifice himself rather than reveal the information about Human Emperor City. How could he gain his trust?
