Hu Yugao still felt a little uneasy, but seeing that Elder Jiao had made up his mind, he could only bow and accept the order, "Yes, Elder."
Elder Jiao pointed at the evil disciple Hu Yugao had brought with him and said, "Since he's already growing spiritual herbs, don't waste them. Take him back and give him to Fang Da. Tell Fang Da that I admire him very much and ask him to do a good job."
"I will obey the order of the law." Hu Yugao bowed.
Inside the Spiritual Medicine Garden, Hu Yugao relayed Elder Jiao's words, then pointed at the evil followers on the ground and asked, "What are you going to do with them?"
Fang Jian said, "Of course we can't waste them. Plant them in the spiritual medicine garden and use their bodies to cultivate spiritual medicine. Combined with the cultivation of spiritual soil, they will be inexhaustible."
Hu Yugao suddenly understood why Elder Jiao admired Fang Jian. This man was indeed ruthless. Just as Elder Jiao had said, he had a "fatherly style".
Afterwards, Hu Yugao gave a few instructions and left. Fang Jian, who was now the leader of the spiritual medicine garden, began to bring those evil followers to the spiritual field one by one. He dug a pit in the land full of spiritual energy and buried these evil followers one by one, leaving only the places where the spiritual herbs grew on their heads and chests exposed.
These evildoers no longer had the arrogance they had before, and just kept begging Fang Jian for mercy. However, Fang Jian ignored them completely. When they saw that their pleas for mercy were ineffective, they began to insult and curse Fang Jian again.
Fang Jian said with a smile, "Go ahead and curse me while you can still speak. Once you take root in this land, you'll only be able to retain your intelligence, but you won't be able to speak."
When Fang Jian buried the seventh one, the five female cultivators limped into the spiritual field, knelt on the ground timidly and bowed to Fang Jian, saying, "Sir, let us help you."
Fang Jian turned around and looked at the female cultivators. He didn't ask them to help, but continued to bury the body himself. As he did so, he asked, "Where were you cultivators from before?"
After hearing this, the five female cultivators looked dazed for a while, and then they all answered that they were cultivators from the Haotian World, three of them were cultivators from the Taiyin Immortal Court, and two were independent cultivators from the Yanluo Continent.
"What are your names?" Fang Jian asked again.
"My name is Li Lingshuang."
"My name is Fang Qiuhe."
"...Bai Chuping."
"...Lu Lingyu."
"...Xu Baiyin."
After listening to the five female cultivators' self-introductions, Fang Jian stopped what he was doing and said to them, "You don't need to take care of the spiritual medicine today. Go back and recuperate."
However, after hearing this, their expressions changed drastically, and they said in fear: "No, sir, please don't let us leave here."
"Huh?" Fang Jian frowned and asked in surprise, "Why are you so scared?"
At this time, the female cultivator named Bai Chuping said, "Sir, if we leave the Spiritual Medicine Garden, we will be sent to serve as 'mother bodies' to nourish the true spirits of the evil gods and form their Dharma bodies."
"Oh?" Fang Jian's eyes narrowed upon hearing this, and he asked, "So, the evil gods used the flesh bodies of female cultivators as their mother bodies, and then condensed their mortal Dharma bodies, right?"
"Yes," Bai Chuping said, "In this way, the evil gods will no longer exist in the world as statues, but can directly become living beings like us and exist in the world."
Fang Jian nodded and smiled, "Don't worry, I won't let you leave here. I'll just give you a day off. Go back and heal your injuries."
The five female cultivators were slightly startled when they heard this, and then they understood. It seemed that the new master of the Spiritual Medicine Garden had taken a fancy to them.
But they no longer have any extra thoughts. Being dominated by one person is better than being bullied by a dozen evil men.
So after looking at each other, they adjusted their emotions, stood up and stood side by side, then respectfully accepted the order and turned to leave the medicine garden.
Fang Jian looked at their departing figures and couldn't help but shake his head. They had been forced to blend in with the environment they were in. To put it bluntly, they had been "tamed" by the evildoers.
It is easy to rescue them, but it is very difficult to convert them and help them recover and find their own "Tao heart".
However, the more difficult the task, the more it must be done. Moreover, there are female cultivators in this giant tomb city who are more miserable than them, that is, those female cultivators who are sent to nurture the true spirits of evil gods. These are the suffering creatures that Fang Jian wants to convert and save.
