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

```

"The Guan Family doesn't want us to know what?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Ping, who was already slightly frowning, couldn't help but furrow his brows even deeper.

Gradually, a contemplative expression appeared on his face.

What, exactly, did the Guan Family want to cover up?

What, exactly, was the Guan Family trying to keep from the Luo Family?

So many unknown questions.

They emerged one by one in Luo Ping's mind.

However, it was somewhat regrettable.

He hadn't obtained any of the answers he was looking for.

...

The next day, in the early morning.

In a mysterious courtyard within the Luo Family Ancestral Land in Qingshi City.

At this moment, Luo Changfeng was sitting quietly under a Stone Pavilion.

He sipped tea while silently waiting.

In just a few breaths' time, seven cultivators of the Organ Refinement Realm appeared before him.

Out of these seven, four had previously taken the Qi-Blood Elixir.

The remaining three, who had not taken the Qi-Blood Elixir, were all at the Viscera Refinement Initial Stage.

And these seven cultivators of the Organ Refinement Realm were the only remaining test subjects Luo Changfeng had for the elixir.

"You all know the rules, don't you?"

"Who will go first?"

Luo Changfeng looked over the two groups, those who had taken the Qi-Blood Elixir and those who had not, and calmly spoke in a low voice.

The four who had taken the Qi-Blood Elixir all lowered their heads.

None dared to make eye contact with Luo Changfeng before them.

And amongst the three Initial Realm cultivators who hadn't taken the Qi-Blood Elixir,

a flicker of longing passed fleetingly through their eyes.

For a cultivator in the Organ Refinement Realm, the prospect of improving one's cultivation without apparent side effects was irresistibly alluring.

...

As time passed,

the three Initial Realm cultivators each drank a cup of crimson liquid.

Their cultivation levels all rose from the Viscera Refinement Initial Stage to the Organ Refinement Realm Intermediate Stage.

None of them died, and none showed any abnormal reactions.

Aside from the mysterious force that lurked deep within their bodies,

it seemed there were no other side effects.

As for the four cultivators in front of Luo Changfeng who had taken the Qi-Blood Elixir,

under the Shadow Guard's coercive measures,

they eventually all gulped down the cups of crimson tea.

And those four, just like Ao Ding, met with death.

Their heads were churned into mush from within.

Not a single one survived.

"So, taking one Qi-Blood Elixir is the limit, huh?"

"If it's just this..."

"It seems quite mediocre..."

Luo Changfeng thought to himself silently.

Of course, apart from this,

another question lingered in his mind.

That is, whether the mysterious energy within the cultivators who had taken the Qi-Blood Elixir would always remain hidden,

or whether it would gradually dissipate over time.

If it could fade away, that would be well and good.

But if the mysterious energy continued to lurk and even expand within them,

then the situation could become quite troublesome.

"Take these men back..."

Luo Changfeng looked at the three cultivators whose complexions were somewhat pale, and he spoke in a calm, low voice.

Soon after, only Luo Changfeng remained in the courtyard.

...

Within the courtyard,

under the Stone Pavilion,

Luo Changfeng was slightly squinting his eyes, gazing into the distance.

A gentle breeze constantly blew across his face.

This feeling was very comfortable, very peaceful.

Just as Luo Changfeng was beginning to immerse himself in this tranquil sensation,

Ruan Liuli suddenly appeared beside him.

Judging by her demeanor, she seemed to have something to say.

"What is it?"

Luo Changfeng picked up a clean cup of tea from the stone table, sipped from it, and then,

turned to Ruan Liuli and asked in a low voice.

"The Guan Family in Luo Mountain Prefecture seems to be acting rather suspiciously..."

Ruan Liuli's voice was slightly cold.

"Acting suspiciously?" Luo Changfeng curiously turned his head and glanced at Ruan Liuli, whose fair and delicate face bore no expression, and asked softly, "In what way?"

Ruan Liuli slightly lowered her head.

After thinking for a moment, she answered in a low voice, "The Guan Family in Luo Mountain Prefecture appears to be covering something up..."

Luo Changfeng asked, "What is it? Can't you find out?"

As soon as Luo Changfeng spoke, Ruan Liuli fell silent for a while.

"The Blood Cultivation Realm elder of the Guan Family in Luo Mountain Prefecture has recently come out of seclusion. We can't probe too deeply, only managing to gather some superficial information..."

...

After discussing this matter,

Ruan Liuli vanished from Luo Changfeng's side.

Within the courtyard, under the Stone Pavilion,

Luo Changfeng was still squinting his eyes, silently watching the distance.

"The Guan Family in Luo Mountain Prefecture?" Find more to read at empire

"A matter that they want to keep hidden?"

After murmuring to himself, Luo Changfeng couldn't help but sigh softly.

He became increasingly curious about the Guan Family in Luo Mountain Prefecture.

What exactly was it?

What could make the Guan Family act in such a way?

What was it that prompted the Guan Family's ancestor to come out of seclusion?

Was it simply to expand the Guan Family's territory?

To enhance their influence?

So, the elder came out of seclusion for that reason?

No, it couldn't be just that.

One becomes increasingly aware of the importance of cultivation and power once they reach the Blood Cultivation Realm.

Territory? Armies? Authority?

These may seem very important in the eyes of ordinary people.
