Immortality Through Array Formations

Chapter 1350: Chapter 759 Opening the Valley (Thank you to the Boss who rewarded the Alliance Hierarch~)_3

”Clearly, this Evil Formation is extremely difficult to handle. If we charge through recklessly, there will certainly be heavy casualties.”

”You can’t break it either?”

Xun Ziyou asked gravely.

Right after speaking, he regretted it.

As a dignified Late-stage Golden Core Elder, he had instinctively placed his hopes of breaking the formation on a young Foundation Establishment disciple...

His elder’s dignity was almost entirely lost.

Fortunately, Mo Hua didn’t mind. He seriously shook his head and said:

”The formations in here are not only Evil Formations; they probably also involve some Divine Sense methods, which are beyond ordinary formations. I haven’t figured them out yet...”

Normally, a Formation Master, even of the third grade, who has only studied orthodox Five Elements Eight Trigrams Formation, would know nothing about Evil Formations and Divine Tao Arrays and wouldn’t see the subtleties of these formations.

Xun Ziyou furrowed his brow slightly and then said:

”According to those demon cultivators, ’On the sixteenth of every month, when the moon is full, the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons opens up, and the White Bone Path appears,’ only then can one enter the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons...”

”Tomorrow is the sixteenth. I’ll see if I can sneak in when the valley opens, and then act according to the situation.”

Mo Hua quickly replied, ”I’m going too.”

”Not you.”

”And what if there’s a formation? If there’s a Divine Tao Array inside that you don’t know how to deal with and get discovered?”

”Moreover, it’s not just about concealment when you go inside.”

”You must use the Divine Tao Array to cover your tracks and isolate others’ perception.”

”Do you know how?”

Xun Ziyou was left speechless by Mo Hua’s questions.

Mo Hua repeated, ”I’m going too!”

Xun Ziyou hesitated for a moment, sighed, and compromised:

”Follow me and don’t wander around once inside.”

”Okay, okay!” Mo Hua nodded.

A large-scale siege would be too conspicuous and could alert the enemy.

And indeed, it is quite risky.

According to custom, one must first investigate, understand the enemy’s situation, and then act.

Of course, Mo Hua had his little ”selfish” reason:

He wanted to go in and see what the Evil God was really up to.

And, in the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons... could there be a complete inheritance of the Four Symbols Formation and Divine Tao Array there?

He wasn’t greedy, just wanted to acquire a few diagrams of the Four Symbols or Divine Tao Formations.

Also, the ”Demon Refining Diagram” mentioned in the monster cultivators’ letter token, he wanted to find a way to get his hands on it.

See exactly what it is and whether it’s what he thinks...

Mo Hua’s eyes gleamed slightly.

Afterwards, Xun Ziyou simply wiped away the blood on the ground and used Pill Fire to burn the bodies of two demon cultivators, and then he and Mo Hua returned to the depths of the dense forest together.

The two squatted on the large tree, patiently waiting.

Waiting for the full moon of the sixteenth, for the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons to open, to find an opportunity to sneak in.

But before that, they had to wait patiently and make some preparations.

On the towering tree.

Mo Hua sat cross-legged on a thick branch, clutching two black robes he had taken from the two monster cultivators.

He looked over the black robes several times, then began to carefully unpick along the seams and stitches.

Soon, the black robe was torn into pieces of cloth by Mo Hua.

And Mo Hua found what he was looking for within the black robe.

Sequential Patterns of the Divine Tao Array!

”As expected...”

Mo Hua nodded in satisfaction.

When he first saw the black robes on the monster cultivators, he felt it was odd.

These black robes seemed unremarkable but could to some extent conceal shapes and thesaur aura of the cultivators.

Moreover, the closer to the dense forest, the better the concealment effect of the robe seemed.

Mo Hua calculated the formations in the dense forest once and found some basic Divine Tao Formation Patterns.

Now, after taking the black robes apart and verifying, Mo Hua discovered that the Divine Tao Formation Patterns in the black robes were identical to those in the dense forest.

Moreover, the robes had even clearer Sequential Formation Patterns!

This meant that the forest and the black robe formations were part of the same system.

He could ”replicate” the Sequential Formation Patterns to communicate with the Divine Compound Formation system within the forest, utilizing the formations from the opposite side to conceal his aura.

This way, besides his concealment skills, he also had Divine Sense isolation.

Even if they entered the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons, it wouldn’t be easy for them to be discovered.

Mo Hua nodded in acceptance.

He took out two Taoist Robes, one large and one small.

Both of these Taoist Robes were customized spiritual tools, without formations drawn on them yet.

The smaller one was for himself, and the larger one was originally intended for drawing a formation to sell.

Now it could be used as ”formation media.”

Using the available time, Mo Hua first drew the same type of Divine Tao Array as that in the dense forest on both Taoist Robes and modified the Sequential Formation Patterns.

Now the two Taoist Robes had a similarity to the black robe worn by the monster cultivators.

Mo Hua handed the larger Taoist Robe to Xun Ziyou.

”Elder, put this on.”

Xun Ziyou was baffled.

Mo Hua simply said, ”To conceal the aura, so we can sneak into the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons...”

The complex principles of the formation weren’t explained, as he guessed Elder Xun wouldn’t quite understand if he did.

Xun Ziyou nodded knowingly and complied by putting on the Taoist Robe.

With preparations complete, the two patiently waited on the tree.

During their idle moments, Mo Hua observed the monster cultivators below.

The more he looked, the more complex Mo Hua’s feelings became.

These seemingly ruthless, bloodthirsty monster cultivators were mostly like him once, disciples of the sects within the Qianxue state boundary.

But now, it seemed almost impossible for them to return to their human selves.

Once they practiced Demon Technique, both body and mind would gradually align with monster beasts, preventing them from ever turning back...

Mo Hua sighed lightly.

Afterwards, he reflected deeply.

These disciples led astray or forced to practice demon skills seemed to predominantly come from medium and small families...

Such was the case for the young monster cultivator who was just slain.

Previously, the ”missing” and ”dead” disciples from the Demon Refining Mountain records had the same background.

In this world, loose cultivators are small fry, small families are small fish, and great families are big fish.

Small fish eat small fry.

Big fish eat not only small fry but small fish as well.

This oppression is not only reflected in family influences.

Within sects, among disciples, various forms of bullying and suppression occur too...

The Evil God, or the henchmen of the Evil God, seemed to exploit this ’oppression’ for infiltration.

But is that really all there is?

Mo Hua frowned deeply.

The children of medium and small families being oppressed, forced to submit, and thus infiltrated by the Evil God to become its henchmen.

But what about the descendants of other great families?

Would the Evil God truly spare them?

Mo Hua’s eyes showed some heaviness.

Time steadily passed.

Beside the Blood Creek below, before the White Bone Shore, monster beasts clustered, and the atmosphere shifted from noisy to quiet, and then to a stifling silence.

Finally, without noticing it, night fell on the sixteenth.

The moon was full, but carried a hint of eeriness.

The blood in the creek began to boil, and the bones on both sides trembled slightly.

The gathered monster beasts also found it hard to bear their restlessness and fear.

In the distance, a surge of bloody karmic aura arose suddenly.

Mo Hua’s eyes sharpened, knowing that the great gate to the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons hidden in darkness was slowly opening...
