Misguided practice of sinister cultivation techniques: Slander! The problem lies with you all, not me!-Chapter 1144 - 591: Daoists Busy and Unaware of Death’s Gaze (Part 2)

Can't deny, this new house is really nice. Not only is the furniture complete, but it's also a bit luxurious.

This treatment indeed has a bit of the "Lord of Heaven" feel.

Deep into the night, Feitian Taoist Li Dawang, due to losing his beloved, has doubled his appetite.

Their midnight snack is barbecue, all big beef skewers.

With the beef skewers, naturally, there's also alcohol.

Good wine!

Top quality aged daughter red, Li Dawang takes a sip of wine and sheds a tear, unable to help but lament: "I once thought, if she shed a single tear, I'd slaughter an entire city, but I hadn't seen her shed a single tear before she was gone!"

Duan Yun and Shen Ying are also mixed in, eating and drinking to their heart's content.

They once marveled at Yuzhu Manor, where every meal was barbecue paired with daughter red, it was like an immortal's life.

Now, this immortal life is realized again in the Inner City of Heavenly Human Dao.

Mainly because they're really hungry.

By lunch, Yan San was drinking sewage, leaving them unable to eat.

After eating and drinking to their fill, Duan Yun and Shen Ying went back to sleep.

Only when full can they continue judging these Taoists.

The explosion of the Pill Furnace in the Heaven and Earth Furnace Hall was not a minor incident in Heavenly People City.

After all, the deceased was the city's most profound pill cultivator, a considerable loss for Heavenly People City's Alchemy Dao, and Luo Qiuya was also a renowned beauty in the Inner City.

Everything sought by Heavenly Human Dao is the Dao. Most Daoists are either pursuing or on the path to enlightenment, but women also have their Dao, which they occasionally pursue.

The Taoists lamented the death of their fellow on this path, unaware of Duan Yun and Shen Ying's existence.

That night, Duan Yun and Shen Ying slept comfortably.

Because no one called them to get up early.

They slept until the sun was high before getting out of bed.

Compared to the Heaven and Earth Furnace Hall, where they began work immediately upon entering, the process in Feitian Dao is much more reasonable.

At first, no work is required; a senior sister takes them to tour Feitian Dao, allowing them to familiarize themselves with the surroundings.

Here, Duan Yun saw many Taoists with a "craftsman spirit."

Yesterday's Feitian rocket had crashed, and these Taoists were repairing the rocket.

Duan Yun realized this rocket wasn't just randomly made; he recognized many familiar things, like screws and nuts.

Unlike his previous life where machine production was involved, these parts were crafted by the Taoists' hands.

On the first day, Duan Yun and Shen Ying didn't notice any excessive wrongdoings by these Feitian Dao Taoists.

On the contrary, the living conditions were good, and a group of Taoists with a craftsman spirit conducting "research and development" had an air of burying themselves in work, disconnected from worldly matters.

In Duan Yun's impression, people like these shouldn't be committing major wrongdoings.

Because they were focused on their own fields, without time or inclination to engage in such things.

The next day, Duan Yun and Shen Ying finally started working.

They began to oil some parts.

Using a wool brush dipped in some white oil, they applied it around.

While oiling, Duan Yun couldn't help but ask, "What kind of oil is this?"

The senior sister who previously guided them didn't avoid the question, answering, "Of course it's Human Whale Oil."

"Human Whale Oil?" Shen Ying exclaimed.

"It's the oil refined from newborn children's fat combined with young whale's fat, very helpful for Feitian."

Upon hearing this answer, Duan Yun found the oil in front of him extremely disgusting and evil.

"Where do the babies come from?" Duan Yun continued asking.

"Where from? Naturally, they're born. Isn't there an abundance of people in this world? Selling children to us, of course, is the best option. We, Heavenly Human Dao, never lack money. If unwilling to sell, then we steal them. Encountering resistance, we kill the entire family and take them. It's all public knowledge."

"You guys are clearly new here, but even these things have protocols. We don't usually do this around Heavenly People City, after all, we care about reputation, doing it far away poses no issues.

It's fair to say, half the traffickers from Tianzhou and Qingzhou rely on us to survive."

At this point, the female Taoist seemed quite proud.

After hearing this answer, Duan Yun and Shen Ying hesitated no more.

They thought Feitian Dao would be an exception, who knew it was just the same, directly annihilate it.

Seeing the two's expression shift, the senior sister, as if seeing through their thoughts, said, "The saying goes, 'One person attains enlightenment; chickens and dogs ascend to heaven.' Here in Feitian Dao, we chickens and dogs will ascend sooner or later, thus you need strict standards for yourself, viewing things from a higher perspective."

Shen Ying asked, "Such as?"

"For instance, regard yourself as an immortal in advance. Do immortals care about mortal life and death? As long as we can fly to the heavens, why care if we kill all the infants in the world? We're not human." The senior sister explained.

That noon, Duan Yun and Shen Ying didn't eat.

Nobody cared about their change, since by that time, the entirety of Feitian Dao was bustling.

Possibly due to grieving lost love, resorting to work to alleviate sorrow, Li Dawang persistently urged everyone for a second round of manned flight.

During the last flight, they thought there was a structural issue with the Feitian rocket, which Li Dawang had improved overnight.

Thus, by the third day, newcomers Duan Yun and Shen Ying were standing before the newly constructed rocket.

This was their first close-up view of the rocket.

This rocket was much smaller than the one Duan Yun saw on TV in his previous life; it stood only two stories high with quite a peculiar shape, bound by four chains.

A group of Taoists rushed around, busy as could be, seemingly capable of producing sparks from their feet.

Duan Yun and Shen Ying stood like underlings in the way, some Taoists even disliked them being a hindrance.

They were unaware, faced in the sightline of a pair of grim reapers.

By that evening, the setting sun turned blood-red, and the rocket was finally ready for launch.

The rocket's chamber was already filled with "oil."

Duan Yun had already checked; this oil also contained human fat, these Feitian Dao Taoists truly loved using human oil.

Their refining technique was very skillful; by Duan Yun's understanding, they could compress the oil to form high-density fuel.

It's rumored these oils were personally refined by Li Dawang using a manual method, pounding each layer 1,200 times.

Of course, this was an exaggeration, but it's almost certain Li Dawang mastered oil refining techniques using Martial Arts.

"Is it ready?" Li Dawang asked.

"Master, it's ready!" the senior disciple replied.

"Then light the fire!" Li Dawang domineered.

As soon as those words fell, Duan Yun and Shen Ying, who were standing slightly back, suddenly realized all the Taoists around them retreated, leaving them at the forefront.

Because they didn't know, lighting the fire required approaching the rocket's base, and the oil personally refined by the master was very volatile, igniting instantly, several fellow disciples had been burned alive during the process.

Lighting the fire was extremely dangerous.

Li Dawang looked at Shen Ying and Duan Yun at the front, and with an appreciative look, said, "Didn't expect such ambition from you two so soon, pick one of you."

Duan Yun raised his hand and said, "I'll do it!"

Soon enough, he held a fire tube.

The oil in the fire tube was the same as the rocket's; in Duan Yun's eyes, this flame was intensely volatile, resembling a laser.

With a bravely fierce expression, Duan Yun grabbed the fire tube and proceeded.

The watching fellow disciples noted with relief it wasn't them lighting the fire, while internally cursing Duan Yun foolish for willingly risking his life.

There were also those feeling it was a pity.

Those feeling pity were mostly senior sisters; they already noticed Duan Yun was quite handsome, even if the fire wouldn't kill him, charring that handsome face wouldn't be worthwhile.

"I'll count to three, then light the fire and quickly move away." Li Dawang personally instructed.

"One."

"Two."

"Three."

Boom!

Just as Li Dawang counted to three, Duan Yun struck quickly and lit the rocket.

To everyone's astonishment, this foolish newcomer didn't run after lighting the fire but stood there stupidly.

Was he scared stiff?

The roaring flame was like a dragon, instantly roaring to take the rocket skyward.

But the next moment, everyone witnessed a terrifying scene.

Duan Yun suddenly kicked the rocket, causing the enormous, monstrous rocket to tilt, aiming toward them.
