Chapter 196 The Current Situation within White Lotus Prefecture, A Monk of the Mortal Transcendence Realm?_1
```
The higher one's cultivation level, the more terrifying the speed of movement became.
Even if one were relying solely on their own speed to move,
traveling from the Luo Family Ancestral Land to the White Brahma Temple within the White Lotus Prefecture would probably take less than half a day.
However, in order to save some of the Qi-Blood Force within his body,
as well as for convenience,
Luo Changfeng did not choose to cross several prefectures directly using his own legs.
Instead, he chose to step on a specially crafted Spiritual Sword and soared through the sky.
The technical expertise required to refine a Sky-float Boat was quite terrifying.
At the current stage, he was unable to craft one yet.
But if it was merely about creating a transportation tool to save some effort, that naturally wasn't too big a problem.
Moreover, this specially crafted Spiritual Sword
had one major advantage, which was that it could consume the Spiritual Power within Spirit Stones to continue advancing.
Besides the Spiritual Power Value in the Spirit Stones,
as the owner, Luo Changfeng only needed to inject some Qi-Blood Force mixed with a little Spiritual Power Value into the specially crafted Spiritual Sword at the beginning.
After that, he didn't need to inject any more Qi-Blood Force.
He just needed to control the direction of the Spiritual Sword a bit.
"Hmm?"
"What's up?"
"Are you coming along, little guy?"
Inside the courtyard, under the Stone Pavilion,
Luo Changfeng gazed at the Black Feather which fluttered its wings and gradually landed on his shoulder, and he couldn't help but ask in a low voice.
In response to his query, Black Feather just tilted its head,
and did not utter any other words.
"Alright then..."
Luo Changfeng sighed slightly and glanced helplessly at the Black Feather on his shoulder before waving his hand.
From his Storage Ring, he took out a silver-white Spiritual Sword.
Continue your adventure with empire
Under the illumination of the sunlight, it seemed to emit a chilling glow intermittently.
"Time to go..."
Luo Changfeng reached out to pat the Black Feather on his shoulder.
Then, he tossed the Spiritual Sword into the air.
The Spiritual Sword moved with the wind and began to swell in size.
It was only after the Spiritual Sword expanded to more than ten times its original size did Luo Changfeng finally step onto it.
...
Soon after,
Luo Changfeng drove the Spiritual Sword, disappearing amidst Qingshi City's vast expanse.
Above the high sky,
at this moment, the breeze whistled past Luo Changfeng's ears non-stop.
The scenery around him swept by rapidly.
The things on the ground seemed to shrink countless times.
Yet even so, Luo Changfeng was still able to see clearly the pedestrians and various landscapes on the ground.
Perhaps, this was a change brought about by his cultivation breaking through Mortal Transcendence,
and his initial shedding of the mortal dust.
"Black Feather,"
"What do you think, how far has the White Brahma Temple developed by now?"
Above the Spiritual Sword,
Luo Changfeng quietly observed all the people and events on the ground,
while he quietly asked the Black Feather perched on his shoulder.
In response to Luo Changfeng's inquiry,
Black Feather still tilted its head slightly.
Its eyes, radiating a purple-gold light, now displayed a clear and somewhat perplexed expression.
Clearly, at this moment, Black Feather,
either hadn't heard or hadn't considered the question that Luo Changfeng had just raised.
"You, you..."
Luo Changfeng shook his head with some helplessness.
Then, he closed his eyes quietly,
deciding to rest and recuperate in meditation for a while.
...
As the Spiritual Sword was specially crafted by Luo Changfeng,
and since the fuel for driving the Spiritual Sword was Spirit Stones,
its speed of flight
was indeed much faster than if Luo Changfeng had sprinted on his own legs.
With the passage of time,
after flying on the sword through the high sky for less than three hours,
he had already reached the outskirts of White Lotus Prefecture.
Having reached the border of White Lotus Prefecture,
Luo Changfeng did not choose to enter immediately.
Instead, he stood on the Spiritual Sword,
pausing outside the White Lotus Prefecture for a while.
"The White Brahma Lotus is regarded as one of the most evil entities between heaven and earth."
"Previously, without having seen it personally, I had no concept or recognition of the White Brahma Lotus."
"But now that I've seen it..."
On the Spiritual Sword, Luo Changfeng looked towards the interior of White Lotus Prefecture,
at the lotus that seemed to be rooted between heaven and earth, emitting sacred white light in waves,
and breathing continuously, the White Brahma Lotus, one of the utmost evil entities.
His eyes narrowed slightly.
A look of wariness and a shiver filled his narrowed eyes for a fleeting moment.
It wasn't that he was apprehensive about the evil entity, the White Brahma Lotus,
but merely catching a glimpse of it made him feel as though his heart was unsettled.
The skin on his body seemed to develop goosebumps.
It was as though the White Brahma Lotus had the capability to influence a person's mind and thoughts.
"Breathe in...
Breathe out...
Breathe in..."
Luo Changfeng breathed deeply,
and a thin layer of Qi-Blood Force emerged around him,
diminishing that unsettling feeling in his heart a bit.
[Ah...]
Just as Luo Changfeng was about to drive the Spiritual Sword into the territory of the White Lotus Prefecture,
