Immortality Cultivation: I Can increase My Stats Using Clansmen's Qi-Blood

His face involuntarily twitched slightly.

By chance, the Carefree Monk also noticed the change in Luo Changfeng's expression.

So he spoke out and asked,

"What's wrong with you?"

"Why has your face suddenly changed?"

"Is there something wrong with your health?"

Upon hearing these questions, Luo Changfeng's face twitched again: "I'm fine..."

The Carefree Monk, somewhat unconvinced, asked again, "Are you really okay?"

Luo Changfeng affirmed firmly, "I'm really fine..."

With that, the Carefree Monk nodded.

Then he tidied up the chessboard, looking forward expectantly at Luo Changfeng before him.

He cracked a slight smile and said, "Since you're okay, shall we have another round?"

Luo Changfeng, looking at the white pieces before him, couldn't help but sigh softly, "Otherwise... perhaps you should find someone else?"

The Carefree Monk replied with a look of disdain, "The skills of others are too poor. I need someone of your level, someone who can fight me to a draw, even though I was finally defeated..."

Luo Changfeng: "..."

Truth be told, he was really at a loss for words.

If he could, Luo Changfeng would have liked to add this comment.

I've never seen such a shameless person.

You're fussy about others' skills?

Do you not know your own level?

And you say we fought to a draw?

You were finally defeated?

Luo Changfeng was just left speechless by these words.

"Fine then..."

After a moment of silence, he nodded quietly and said, "But this is the last game..."

Before starting the chess game with the Carefree Monk.

Luo Changfeng suddenly emphasized.

The Carefree Monk nodded repeatedly, "The last game it is then, okay, stop dawdling, let's get started..."

...

In the small courtyard.

Under the Stone Pavilion.

Just as the two were about to start a new game,

somewhere in the distance, a mysterious energy fluctuation suddenly emanated.

Luo Changfeng curiously raised his head,

looking in the direction of the energy fluctuation.

All he saw, however...

was a white lotus in the void that seemed to be rooted between heaven and earth.

"What is that?"

Looking at the lotus in the void,

Luo Changfeng squinted slightly.

He instinctively asked in a low voice,

"A white lotus?"

At this moment, the Carefree Monk who was engrossed in the game of Go before Luo Changfeng seemed to have also realized something.

He turned his head toward the lotus in the void that was gradually becoming indistinct,

and even disappeared shortly after,

as if it had never appeared.

After a long look, a trace of surprise flashed across the Carefree Monk's eyes.

"Do you know what that thing is?"

Noticing the Carefree Monk's expression, Luo Changfeng asked,

"You know about anything that happens on this continent, as long as you want to, there's nothing you don't know..."

The Carefree Monk grinned, speaking with some pride.

Luo Changfeng asked curiously, "Can you elaborate?"

The Carefree Monk didn't directly answer Luo Changfeng's question.

Instead, he pointed to the chessboard in front of him and whispered, "If you want to know, play chess first. Beat me, and I'll tell you."

...

This chess game.

It lasted about half an hour.

And it ended, as usual, with the Carefree Monk's narrow defeat.

Of course, Luo Changfeng had let him win.

The conclusion of defeat was something he had deliberately crafted.

Otherwise...

It might not have taken more than ten minutes

for the Carefree Monk to suffer a terrible loss at the hands of Luo Changfeng.

"Ah, such a pity, this game of Go..."

In the small courtyard, under the Stone Pavilion.

The Carefree Monk, holding a worn wooden fan, was still intently staring at the chessboard before him.

His mind seemed to be replaying the game.

If only he had been a little more careful just now.

If only he hadn't made those moves...

Would he have had a chance to win?

"Since I've won, you should tell me about that white lotus..."

Luo Changfeng silently picked up a cup of hot tea from the stone table,

lifted it to his lips, and took a small sip.
Experience tales at empire

Then he asked the Carefree Monk in front of him once again.

And this time...

The Carefree Monk no longer kept it a secret.

After all, this was something that happened within the Da Feng Dynasty.

And as the Ancestor of the Luo Family,

just now, Luo Changfeng had also sensed the presence of that white lotus rooted in the void.

So even if he were to reveal what he knew about the white lotus,

it wouldn't have much impact on the future.

"The White Brahma Temple, you know of it?"

The Carefree Monk inquired softly.

After a moment of thought, Luo Changfeng nodded quietly.

He had some recollections of the White Brahma Temple,

which seemed to be a Buddhist force in the region that had only recently unified the Buddhist factions within the White Lotus Prefecture.

"Could it be that the white lotus has something to do with the White Brahma Temple?"

Luo Changfeng continued to inquire.

The Carefree Monk, while pouring himself a cup of steaming tea quite unceremoniously, said in a low voice, "Yes, the white lotus is indeed related to the White Brahma Temple. Of course, that's not the important part. The important thing is that the white lotus is not such a good thing..."

Luo Changfeng's brow furrowed slightly as he asked in a low voice, "What do you mean?"

The Carefree Monk, drinking the hot tea calmly, said, "Don't be fooled by the surface glamour of Buddhism. It's extremely dirty inside, and especially the power of the Three Great Demon Monks that most fosters fear and unease among people..."
