The Eerie Immortal Path: Begin by Devouring Fairy Flesh-Chapter 60 – Transform the Treasure Dropping Sieve! Steal the Gold Sand again!
Just as Brandon Jiang was deep in thought, the voices of Elizabeth Chun and Barbara Xia echoed from outside:
"Junior Sister Jiang, how did your talk with Benjamin Qiao go? Did he relent?"
As they spoke, their voices grew closer, indicating they were coming in.

Brandon's expression tightened, and he immediately lowered his voice, saying, "They're here. Remember to disguise yourself well and don't give anything away."
Benjamin Qiao nodded slightly.
A few breaths later, Elizabeth Chun and Barbara Xia appeared, seeing Brandon in a fit of rage, and they angrily scolded Benjamin:
"You stubborn fool! Do you want us to torture you even more?"
"If you weren't Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix's property, I'd kill you."
Elizabeth and Barbara exchanged glances and shook their heads.
As they had guessed, Brandon couldn't outtalk Benjamin and was instead provoked into a rage.
"Alright, Junior Sister Jiang, calm down. The evil cultivators of Human Emperor City are all like this. It's not worth getting angry over. Be careful not to harm your health," they advised in unison.
"Let's use the old method. Just cut his meridians and infuse spiritual energy directly," they suggested.
Brandon nodded helplessly, somewhat embarrassed, "It seems that's the only way. I apologize to both of you for wasting so much of your time."
The two women shook their heads, indicating it was fine.
They took out the prison keys, opened the cell door, and began the rough "feeding."
Before long, all the sacrificial furnaces were exhausted, and the three of them retreated together.
Elizabeth Chun and Barbara Xia took Brandon out of the prison.
After handling some remaining matters, it was near dusk when Brandon finally got to leave.
This was much later than he used to leave Purple Lotus Peak.
There was no helping it; with power came more responsibilities, and free time decreased accordingly. Gains always came with losses.
He went directly to Patricia Qing's residence. Before meeting her, Brandon deliberately lifted the Daoist art for concealing his true cultivation, so she wouldn't notice any difference.
Inside the hall, Patricia Qing smiled and said, "As I expected, you've been promoted quickly. Although you can't personally make 'Everyone Like Dragon Golden Thunder Sand' yet, you have more room to maneuver."
"Did you come to me with a new idea for obtaining Gold Sand?"
Brandon nodded and got straight to the point, taking out the Treasure Dropping Sieve.
"I've taken over all the work of sorting the talisman sand. Now the Treasure Dropping Sieve is under my control."
"I hope you, Senior Sister Patricia, can create a replica of the Treasure Dropping Sieve that can normally sort out high-quality Gold Sand but can also retain a portion during the process."
"At the same time, after retaining the high-quality Gold Sand, it should spit out some inferior Gold Sand as a replacement, so the total amount remains unchanged. Can you do that?"
Patricia's beautiful eyes lit up slightly, looking at Brandon with appreciation.
"This method is indeed good. Creating a low-level magical tool that meets your requirements is a piece of cake for me."
"But the difficulty of this matter isn't in tampering with the Treasure Dropping Sieve; it's in you climbing to the position where you control it. And you've already achieved that."
"Brandon, if I could wait longer, I'd genuinely treat you as a sister."
Brandon just shook his head calmly, "It's too late for that now. Please, Senior Sister Patricia, quickly make the replica."
"I've heard from Elizabeth Chun and Barbara Xia that Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix might refine Dragon Thunder Talismans in the next day or two."
Patricia's expression changed slightly, and she nodded, "Very well, you can go back now. Before you head to Purple Lotus Peak, the replica will be in your hands."
"Alright."
Brandon nodded and left Green Lotus Peak, returning to his residence to focus on cultivation.
A night passed, and Brandon's cultivation improved again, getting closer to the fourth level of Qi Refining.
Growing stronger was good, but with each breakthrough, people around him mysteriously died, a huge problem he couldn't ignore.
Not every breakthrough had someone like Susan Lin to cover for him. He had to find a solution himself.
Before long, Patricia personally delivered the replica Treasure Dropping Sieve to ensure no one else knew about it.
After delivering it, she left immediately.
Brandon tested the replica and found it met his requirements exactly.
As for how much high-quality talisman sand to retain, Brandon could control it with his spiritual power.
Everything was ready, just waiting for Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix to refine the Dragon Thunder Talismans.
Two days later, Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix finally began making Dragon Thunder Talismans and assigned the task of making 'Everyone Like Dragon Golden Thunder Sand' to the children.
The children were busy, but Brandon felt a bit nervous.
However, he showed no signs of it, maintaining a stern and impartial demeanor as he supervised the talisman sand production.
Before long, the first child signaled that the talisman sand was ready. Brandon walked over and used the replica Treasure Dropping Sieve to sort the Gold Sand.
Under Brandon's control, the replica began to operate, retaining high-quality Gold Sand in a hidden storage space within the sieve and spitting out inferior Gold Sand.
In this way, without anyone noticing, nearly ten percent of the high-quality Gold Sand produced by the child was pocketed by Brandon.
No one noticed anything unusual.
Only the child who made the talisman sand felt slightly puzzled.
With her years of experience, the high-quality rate of this 'Everyone Like Dragon Golden Thunder Sand' should be over eighty percent. Why was it just over seventy?
Was her eyesight failing?
But puzzled as she was, she never suspected Brandon.
After all, who would think that Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix's promising protégé would dare to steal talisman sand in front of everyone?
Brandon, without showing any emotion, placed the remaining high-quality Gold Sand on the stone platform in front of Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix.
She barely glanced at it and nodded slightly.
Brandon slowly stepped back and resumed supervising the children, his back almost drenched in cold sweat.
It wasn't that he lacked mental fortitude, but what he did was too risky and thrilling.
If anyone noticed and pointed him out, he would be exposed and face death.
In such a life-and-death situation, who could remain absolutely calm?
But fortunately, he succeeded!
With the first success, Brandon's subsequent actions went smoothly. He managed to steal between five and ten percent of the high-quality Gold Sand each time.
Of course, he wasn't blindly stealing. If Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix's Gold Sand supply was running low, he would slow down.
Or if a child produced talisman sand with more impurities, Brandon would choose not to retain that batch, as the child might be killed by Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix for poor performance.
Thus, under Brandon's careful manipulation, Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix's class ended smoothly, and the total amount of Gold Sand he retained was almost equivalent to five full batches of high-quality Gold Sand!
Such a large amount was ten times what he had stolen last time!
These Gold Sand materials were from Dragon Thunder Fate cultivators at the third, fourth, and even fifth levels of Qi Refining, each worth tens or hundreds of thousands of ordinary mortals!
If the raw materials were so valuable, how much more would the refined 'Everyone Like Dragon Golden Thunder Sand' be worth?

If he sold such a large amount, the value would be unimaginable.
Unfortunately, Brandon couldn't keep it for himself, and even if he did, he wouldn't dare sell it. So, it all went to Patricia, that old witch.
However, this Gold Sand could be considered a bargaining chip, allowing him to gain more benefits from Patricia.
After that, Brandon completed the remaining tasks at Purple Lotus Peak without any issues and headed to Patricia's residence.
