Immortality Cultivation: I Can increase My Stats Using Clansmen's Qi-Blood - Chapter 89:
Chapter 89: Chapter 81 Viscera Refinement Perfection, The So-Called Buddhism?_3
Some remained vigilant.
Those willing to believe in Buddha’s mercy followed behind the monks in droves.
Whereas those with a look of caution, unwilling to believe,
were constantly scorned by the people behind those monks.
Buddha cares for all beings, all of this is guided by Buddha.
You have lived up to now thanks to Buddha’s mercy.
Yet, you do not wish to believe in Buddha.
To those willing to believe in Buddha’s kindness, this is the greatest sin.
Even if those people were beaten to death, it would not be too much.
But then again, Buddha is also merciful.
Even towards those who do not wish to believe, he is merciful.
So, there is no other choice.
The matter could only come to an inconclusive end.
…
Visible to the naked eye, many refugees were led away by those monks.
Luo Changfeng had not interacted with the monks,
but he still followed them from a distance.
He wanted to see,
what exactly were those monks up to?
“Are they leaving the city?”
Luo Changfeng watched as the monks, after several twists and turns, turned into a secluded alley.
Then, a temple adorned with many stone statues of Buddha
appeared before his eyes.
The temple was vast.
Inside the temple, there was already an extremely large group of refugees.
At this moment, Luo Changfeng could see
that these refugees were fervently worshipping the stone statues, their faces filled with zeal.
Their mouths seemed to mutter something with conviction.
“Honored patron, do you wish to join the Buddha’s fold?”
A gentle voice rang in Luo Changfeng’s ear.
A monk wearing a white monk’s hat and white monk’s robe,
clutching a string of white Buddha beads in his hand,
was now smiling before Luo Changfeng.
Even before the monk got sufficiently close, Luo Changfeng hadn’t noticed him at all.
“Bone Refinement Perfection?”
Looking at the young monk in white, he couldn’t help but narrow his eyes slightly.
The monk’s robe and hat?
And that string of white Buddha beads?
Yes, it seemed to be because of these items that he realized the presence of this monk only when he got close enough.
“Honored patron, Buddha cares for all, but many people suffer,”
“Do you wish to join the Buddha’s fold, to lead others into a world of bliss?”
Before Luo Changfeng, the monk in white was still smiling and speaking softly.
However, for this strange monk before him,
he had no intention of paying much attention.
Instead, he activated the Qi-Blood Force within his body and quietly disappeared from the white monk’s line of sight.
…
Before long, Luo Changfeng returned to the Luo Family Ancestral Land.
He returned to the courtyard where he lived.
Everything he had seen just then exuded an eerily peculiar aura.
Whether it was those grey-robed monks with only the strength of the Skin Refinement Realm,
or that white-robed monk who possessed the strength of Bone Refinement Perfection.
All of this, every detail, exuded something sinister.
Yes, Luo Changfeng had the capability.
With ease, he could have bulldozed those monks and the temple itself.
But who could know?
Behind those monks, was there someone even more formidable?
Did those monks have the backing of an even more terrifying temple?
So, after weighing the pros and cons,
Luo Changfeng felt it was best not to recklessly meddle with those monks.
But to not touch is one thing; to not understand is another.
…
Under Luo Changfeng’s orders,
Luo Ping, who was the Current Patriarch of the Luo Family,
soon arrived at the courtyard of their family ancestor.
“What do you know about those monks?”
Beneath the Stone Pavilion, Luo Changfeng picked up a cup of hot tea from the stone table.
While taking a sip, he quietly asked Luo Ping, who sat beside him.
“The monks?”
After pondering for a moment, Luo Ping seemed to recall something, then he spoke, “Those monks, their origins are unknown.”
“It’s as if they suddenly appeared out of nowhere.”
“Not only in Qingshi Town, but Huangqu Town has many as well.”
“Of course, the King of Huai Shui, the Tang Family, and the venerable Chen Family all have their fair share.”
After finishing his tea, Luo Changfeng thought for a moment before asking, “How are other forces dealing with these monks?”
“Other forces haven’t yet focused much on those monks…”
Luo Changfeng nodded silently, then waved his hand and didn’t speak further.
As Luo Ping’s figure gradually disappeared from his sight,
Luo Changfeng’s gaze once again turned toward the direction of the temple in Qingshi Town.
In his eyes, a serious expression flickered briefly.
It seemed that ever since the old emperor of the Da Feng Dynasty had fallen and the New Emperor had ascended,
one troublesome event after another had followed in rapid succession,
not giving Luo Changfeng a moment to catch his breath.
“For now, there is no need to bother with the monks.”
“It’s unlikely that they will cause much trouble in the short term.”
“However, this cultivation level…”
“It should be raised sooner rather than later.”
“I thought reaching Viscera Refinement Perfection would be sufficient.”
“But now, it seems to be rather low.”
“Above Viscera Refinement is Blood Cultivation, and above Blood Cultivation is Mortal Transcendence.”
“Not to mention reaching the Mortal Transcendence Realm, but my cultivation should at least advance to the Blood Cultivation Realm above Viscera Refinement. At that time, I ought to have some ability to protect myself.”
…
Driven by the urgency of insufficient strength,
Luo Changfeng entered another round of closed-door cultivation.
During this period, he also studied a bit of Alchemy and Talisman Making.
Anything that could bolster his combat power
Was worth his thorough investigation.
The progress of researching Elixirs to enhance his cultivation needed to be slightly accelerated.
As for offensive and defensive Talismans,
He would need to produce more of them, just to be prepared.
After all, when it comes to Talismans, it’s better to be safe than sorry.
The more he could prepare, the better.
When the time came, having prepared three to five hundred, a few thousand, or even tens of thousands of Talismans,
The aggregated effect might allow him to take down a Blood Cultivation Realm cultivator beyond his level, which might not be impossible.
