Chapter 509: Chapter 242 The Other Uses of White Brahma Lotus, the So-Called Observing Qi?_2
A young monk, also dressed in a White Lotus Monk Robe, appeared exceptionally handsome.
At the moment, he stood silently behind the elder monk.
His face seemed to carry a shade of perplexity.
In his heart, there seemed to be a question he wanted to ask his esteemed master.
So that his somewhat perplexed thoughts might find an answer.
“If you have something you want to ask, just ask…”
After a long silence between the two,
the old monk sitting cross-legged on the white cushion suddenly spoke.
“Master…”
The young monk silently walked into the great hall.
He glanced at his master, who was facing away from him.
After hesitating for a brief moment, he opened his mouth,
and eventually, he asked the question that had been accumulating in his heart, “Master, now that the Great Flame Dynasty’s Mortal Transcendence has perished within our White Lotus Prefecture, which we govern, all territories and assets of the Great Flame Dynasty within the Da Feng Dynasty have been wholly taken over by our White Brahma Temple. Why, after this, did we not continue to attack the Luo Family of Qingshi City but instead chose to lie low?”
The youth, exceedingly handsome to the point of being somewhat otherworldly, didn’t quite understand.
He didn’t quite understand why his master would make such a decision.
“Why?”
The old monk heard these questions.
He silently opened his eyes that had always been firmly shut.
With his pair of eyes, which to outsiders seemed slightly murky, he quietly looked straight ahead.
“The Mortal Transcendence of the Great Flame Dynasty was actually not weak.”
“The reason why the outcome was as such,”
“is largely because the Great Flame Dynasty’s Mortal Transcendence was somewhat too careless, too confident.”
“As a result, the Mortal Transcendence of the Great Flame Dynasty perished within the precincts of our White Brahma Temple.”
“Moreover, our White Brahma Temple has taken over, with utmost ease, all the territories of the Great Flame Dynasty within the Da Feng Dynasty.”
“Had it not been so,”
“had the Mortal Transcendence of the Great Flame Dynasty not been so overly arrogant and confident,”
“this struggle, even if won by our White Brahma Temple in the end,”
“would certainly not have been as effortless as it is now.”
“As for why we chose to lay low instead of directly taking action against the Luo Family of Qingshi City?”
“There is but one reason…”
Upon hearing this, the young monk eagerly asked, “What is the reason?”
The old monk silently turned around and looked at the young monk before him.
After a moment of silence, he slowly said, “The Luo Family of Qingshi City seems somewhat out of the ordinary…”
“I always feel that the Luo Family of Qingshi City is not as simple as it appears on the surface…”
The young monk thought for a moment before suddenly saying, “Could it be that you’re mistaken, Master?”
The old monk silently shook his head.
He would rather it be his own illusion.
But no matter how he calculated,
by every means he watched the Luo Family of Qingshi City,
the only conclusion he could come to was this:
The Luo Family of Qingshi City was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.
The Luo Family of Qingshi City appeared to be concealing a power that was extremely strong, terrifyingly so, and one that could even severely wound his White Brahma Temple if unleashed.
Although these feelings
even made Zhi Ming, the current Abbot of the White Brahma Temple, slightly doubt himself,
the truth appeared to be as such.
“The Mortal Transcendence of the Great Flame Dynasty perished because of its own carelessness and overconfidence,”
“How could our White Brahma Temple behave in the same manner as the Mortal Transcendence of the Great Flame Dynasty?”
“Thus, lying low for a while to digest the spoils of victory that our White Brahma Temple has won is not a bad thing.”
“Moreover, the Luo Family of Qingshi City, just like the Great Flame Dynasty before them, is now encircled by enemies.”
“It’s not just our White Brahma Temple watching them; the Da Feng Dynasty’s Imperial Feng Family is also keeping a close eye on the Luo Family of Qingshi City.”
“Under such circumstances, the Luo Family won’t be able to escape…”
As the old monk said these words,
in this slightly dimly lit palace,
Suddenly, there was a lull in the conversation
The young monk lowered his head slightly, seemingly pondering the words his master had just said.
Meanwhile, inside the palace, the elderly monk
was squinting his eyes slightly.
His gaze seemed to be directed towards the direction of the Luo Family Ancestral Land in Qingshi City.
…
Not long afterward,
the young monk withdrew.
In that slightly dim palace, at this moment, only the elder monk remained.
“Do you think that the Luo Family from Qingshi City is really that extraordinary?”
“Does the hidden power of the Luo Family from Qingshi City truly have the capability to severely wound or even destroy the branch I have built of the White Brahma Temple?”
Inside the palace,
the elder monk squinted his eyes.
He seemed to be talking to someone beside him, or perhaps he was just talking to himself.
The scene looked
somewhat strangely peculiar.
However, not long afterward, a small lotus entity, roughly the size of a palm and radiating white light all over,
started to revolve slowly beside the elder monk.
After the appearance of the small White Lotus entity, it seemed to drift near the elder monk’s ear,
as if it were whispering something to him.
“Oh?”
“You’re saying that the true fortunes of the Luo Family from Qingshi City are not even weaker than those of the Royal Feng Family from the Da Feng Dynasty that has existed for thousands of years?”
The White Lotus entity swayed gently a few times,
seemingly agreeing with the elder monk’s interpretation.
After receiving a firm acknowledgment,
the elder monk’s expression gradually became even more solemn.
His perception of the threat level posed by the Luo Family from Qingshi City quickly escalated to a very high degree.
The White Brahma Lotus, a sacred artifact of the White Brahma Temple,
is seen by outsiders as one of the most sinister things between heaven and earth.
Others would dread and avoid the White Brahma Lotus at all costs,
yet what most cultivators do not realize is that,
besides being able to control a large amount of puppets without any autonomous consciousness, transforming the environment to be more suitable for the practice of the monks from the White Brahma Temple, and even enhancing the strength of the monks to improve their cultivation in a short period,
the White Brahma Lotus also possesses another ability unknown to others.
That is, it can divine fortunes.
The White Brahma Lotus is able to roughly discern the strength of the fortunes of a power,
and thus determine the strength or weakness of that power.
Of course, if the White Brahma Lotus wishes to perform this divination,
it must meet a precondition.
That is, the White Brahma Lotus must reach a state of transforming the intangible into the tangible and descending into the mortal world.
Only then, with the materialized White Brahma Lotus, can it barely achieve the ability to divine fortunes.
Otherwise, forget about making the White Brahma Lotus divine fortunes.
“Qingshi City, Luo Family…”
“What kind of strength have you really concealed?”
“That has led to your family’s fortune being as strong as that of the Royal Feng Family from the Da Feng Dynasty that has existed for thousands of years?”
“Even possessing the capability to severely damage or utterly destroy my White Brahma Temple?”
As he pondered,
the elder monk’s brow involuntarily furrowed.
After much contemplation, the elder monk still couldn’t figure out anything,
But just as he decided to temporarily give up thinking about this issue and go into retreat to enhance his cultivation,
a tremendously mysterious figure suddenly appeared in his mind.
The owner of the figure was the enigmatic Mortal Transcendence cultivator who had once visited the White Brahma Temple, observed it, and whom he had clearly sensed, feeling an aura of trepidation.
If that mysterious Mortal Transcendence Realm cultivator happened to be the enigmatic patriarch from the Luo Family of Qingshi City,
then all of these matters would make sense.
