581 Mindset Touches Hearts

What's most astonishing is that steam seems to be rising straight up from his hair, as if he has endless heat inside him, ready to burst forth at any moment.

The Fire Spirit Sect, the Fire Spirit Sect, has fire, so it naturally carries intense and fiery true energy. It is very strong, but it also requires the strength of the meridians to withstand it.

Many practitioners, if not careful, suffer internal burns from the techniques, and some even burn to ashes.

So, do you feel hot all over, irritable, and easily angered?

Therefore, those who practice the Linghuo Sect's techniques need the harmony of water and fire. They also have many beautiful concubines in their households.

However, not everyone has the right to cultivate such a technique. It requires exceptional talent from the best in the clan, as well as a large amount of resources, medicinal baths, internal medicine, and medicinal soups, making it very expensive.

Within the family, there is also a limit to the number of people allowed in each generation.

As the family grew larger and the relationships became more complex, the number of descendants increased dramatically. The competition for the limited spots became increasingly fierce, with all sorts of methods employed.

A single quota is not only about power and interests, but also involves bloodlines, making it difficult to distinguish between the eldest, second, and third branches of a family, as well as relatives by marriage.

Fraud, defamation, framing, and even insider attacks are not uncommon.

The trust among the members was severely damaged, and kinship and friendship were completely destroyed.

During that period, the power struggles within the clan posed a significant threat to the clan's unity and stability.

If this struggle continues, the family may split due to internal conflicts and even decline.

Until the patriarch intervened and established a system of contribution points within the family, with quotas allocated solely based on contribution points.

Of course, those with exceptional talent are an exception.

After that, contribution points became like a life-saving poison, spreading more and more rampant.

Therefore, whoever mines the most minerals of the Fire Spirit Cult, and whoever discovers the most valuable ones, will have more contribution points.

This system appears fair and just, encouraging family members to participate more actively in the development of mineral resources, discover better deposits, and thus earn more contribution points, thereby enhancing their status and influence within the family.

Under this system, members of different factions compete to mine mineral resources, attempting to increase their contribution points by discovering more and more valuable minerals.

This method is indeed effective!

It can quickly stimulate the enthusiasm and creativity of various factions within the family, thereby promoting the family's development and prosperity.

As for who is mining, it is naturally the villagers under its jurisdiction, beggars, prisoners, or miners hired with high wages.

As for whether they are guaranteed a living, whether they live or die, who cares!

The patriarch had been in seclusion for a long time, while outside, the patriarch was suppressing other factions, trying to seize the biggest piece of the pie in order to make a breakthrough.

The head of the Huo family was only forty years old, in the prime of his life, but he had long been accustomed to the various schemes and human nature within the family.

At this moment, his heart was filled with murderous intent, and his hands moved swiftly, cautiously probing the situation, not wanting to expose himself completely.

As the head of the family has been in power for a long time, he always needs to keep something in reserve, which will gradually become apparent without him realizing it.

When you live a peaceful and happy life for a long time, you naturally won't want to think too much about fighting and killing.

But his expression also showed a cunning and shrewd nature.

The sword whistled towards them, and a low voice interrupted, "If you put down your weapon, there are plenty of beauties on the ground. If you want, I can reward you with ten or eight."

They are all in their prime, carefully nurtured by their families, graceful and elegant, guaranteed to satisfy you.

The Fire Spirit Sect's internal energy cultivation method was already at the very last step, and the true energy in his heart felt like it was being burned by flames. After a long time without any breakthrough, his liver fire flared up.

The man in black showed no sign of slowing down, his eyes flashing with cold light.

Anger immediately welled up inside me.

He suddenly accelerated, his figure like a ghost, his inner energy surging and converging, his palms turning red again, like burning flames.

The longsword, gripped tightly in his hand, gleamed with a crimson glow, and the surrounding temperature suddenly rose several degrees, instantly becoming scorching hot.

It felt as if I were in a furnace, and my blood and energy felt a burning sensation.

In an instant, the head of the Huo family began to move violently.

His figure flashed like lightning, red as lightning piercing the sky.

The longsword transformed into a deadly streak of light, slashing towards the throat of the man in black, Ren Pingsheng, with lightning speed.

Swift as lightning, accurate as aiming, ruthless as a beast, the Fire Clan Chief pressed forward, ready to claim a life with a single sword strike.

Just as the blade was about to slit Ren Pingsheng's throat, a slight, contemptuous smile involuntarily appeared on his lips, but he was immediately struck by a sharp, intense pain.

With a loud clang, the sound of metal hitting the ground rang out, sharp and piercing.

Unbeknownst to him, his hand holding the sword was instantly severed by the blade's strike.

Blood gushed out, blooming like a flamboyant flower on the earth, staining the surrounding land red.

Amidst the unbearable pain, the shock in my heart was indescribable.

He cried out in disbelief, his voice echoing across the vast wilderness, "Impossible, impossible! My hand, my hand!"

In the quiet night, footsteps sounded rapidly all around, many footsteps rushing towards this place.

A flash of sword light appeared, like a shooting star, and the sword seemed to come from nowhere, unstoppable, sharp and ruthless, accompanied by another shrill scream.

The heart-wrenching sound froze the surrounding air with its overwhelming power; the earth trembled and the sky changed color.

His other arm was also severed by a sword, and blood gushed out instantly, splattering the entire room.

Blood gushed out like a torrent, staining the naked head of the Huo family red.

At this moment, the head of the Huo family was completely red, as red as a bright red lantern.

The sounds of pain continued for a moment, and the Fire Clan Chief's will to survive erupted. He couldn't care about anything else at that moment and hurriedly went to find his ancestor for help.

Without a moment's hesitation, without any determination to fight to the death, the Fire Clan Chief, completely naked, turned and fled at an astonishing speed, as if he had grown four legs.

Hearing hurried footsteps, the Fire Clan Chief smiled cruelly and coldly.

His thoughts flashed like lightning as he thought to himself, 'Once I survive, all these people, everyone who sees me, will die!'

His inner energy surged in his chest and gathered at his feet, while his killing intent toward everyone present was as turbulent as a tidal wave.

At this moment, he still shouted for help, "There's an assassin! There's an assassin! Quickly take him down!"

A reward of a thousand taels of gold, ten beautiful women, and a cultivation manual.

His voice was loud and clear, echoing throughout the entire mansion.

The temptation and reward, though everyone knew they had to risk their lives for it, struck the hearts of everyone present like a heavy hammer, sending sparks flying and surging into their minds.

"I am the special one, I am blessed with great fortune, I am the chosen one in the book, this reward is destined to be mine."

Tempted by the promise of profit and under the authority of the patriarch, these reckless individuals quickened their pace to seize the riches and glory.
