Immortality Through Array Formations

Chapter 1388: Chapter 771 Legacy_3

Yet, despite this, he still feels that Mo Hua’s innate talent in formations is somewhat unfathomable.

Even, it is because of his family’s profound knowledge and wide experience that he truly understands why the phrase ”astonishingly talented” applies so fittingly to Mo Hua.

Among the elders and disciples present here, none have a scholarly background in formations, nor are they proficient in them, making it nearly impossible for them to grasp just how extraordinary Mo Hua’s formation expertise is.

But, that said, Mo Hua is still only a Second Grade Formation Master.

Xun Zixian said: ”Limited by his cultivation realm and the grade of a Formation Master, there are some aspects that Mo Hua, this child, still cannot see through.”

Of course, this is due to the formation layout brought by the realm, not his fault...

Xun Zixian silently consoled himself in his heart.

”What do you mean?” Xun Ziyou asked.

Xun Ziyou looked up, glanced at the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons before him, and spoke in a solemn tone:

”This Valley of Ten Thousand Demons is built with a large formation throughout, these evil formations are just a part of it.”

”Moreover, this structure is very special, it must stem from some ancient Demon Path Monster Gate heritage, if my guess is correct, it should be...”

”Ten Thousand Demon Mountain?” Xun Ziyou interjected.

He, being an elder of Taixu Gate, knows quite a bit about these Demon Path giants.

Xun Zixian nodded.

Xun Ziyou frowned, ”It really is Ten Thousand Demon Mountain...”

Although he was puzzled, he asked: ”I still don’t quite understand, how can this evil formation be so powerful? Is it second grade or third grade? Can we not force through with all of us at Golden Core Realm?”

Xun Zixian said: ”I don’t want to cast pearls before swine, you just need to know that for now, you can’t get through.”

Although he appeared graceful, sometimes his words could be irritating.

Formation Masters often have this kind of arrogant flaw.

By comparison, Mo Hua seems much more ”lovable.”

Xun Ziyou sighed, ”Just simplify it for me, let me roughly understand... This matter is of great importance, if it were a normal day, I wouldn’t delve deeper, but now the situation is special, at least tell me about it.”

Xun Zixian paused, feeling it made some sense, after pondering for a moment, pointed at the land of blood streams and white bones in front and said:

”There are many evil spirits being nurtured ahead.”

”I know this, you and Mo Hua have mentioned it.” Xun Ziyou said.

”But these evil spirits are not actually nurtured here.”

Xun Ziyou was taken aback, ”What do you mean?”

Xun Zixian frowned, ”The internal principle I haven’t seen the specific formation diagram, it’s hard to assert, but by estimation, it’s a mix of reality and illusion here.”

”Mix of reality and illusion?”

Xun Zixian said: ”Using some kind of powerful force, initially combining reality with divine thought, and constructing through formation.”

Reality combined with divine thought?

Xun Ziyou inhaled sharply, ”What level of mighty power is this?”

Xun Zixian shook his head, his gaze heavy.

He vaguely had some guess in his heart, but couldn’t say it out loud.

Moreover, part of it involved the secret of ”God-slaying” within the Taixu Mind Transforming Sword True Jue, he was interested in divine thought while he was a formation master, and researched a bit into divine thought techniques.

But the method of divine thought was too profound and meticulous, he couldn’t comprehend it.

Additionally, there were some rumors whose truth was hard to discern, he couldn’t assert.

”You mentioned this is a large formation, it shouldn’t be... a large formation, right?” Xun Ziyou was somewhat worried.

”No, a large formation isn’t that easy to construct.” Xun Zixian said.

”That’s good...” Xun Ziyou sighed in relief, then asked, ”Can you unravel this formation?”

Xun Zixian sighed and said: ”If I could unravel it, I would have done so already.”

Then he showed a look of disdain for casting pearls before swine, yet have to do so:

”Moreover, I have mentioned to you before, this set of formations is underpinned by divine thought, the true formation media, formation patterns, formation pivot, and formation eye are hidden deep within the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons.”

”The evil spirits ahead seem near, if you rush over, they would devour your divine sense.”

”But their true form is not actually here.”

”This is a place for nurturing evil, yet it’s only a projection of the real nurturing place, we don’t even know where these evil spirits are ’fostered’... ”

Xun Zixian said this more than once.

Yet Xun Ziyou still didn’t quite understand, so even though Xun Zixian repeated it again, he was still confused.

However, he couldn’t admit it, had to pretend to understand and nodded.

Then he frowned, ”Such a strange formation, what is its origin?”

Xun Zixian’s expression was solemn, frowned and pondered, suddenly asked:

”Didn’t Mo Hua mention ’Divine Formation’ to you?”

”Hmm.” Xun Ziyou nodded, then asked: ”Is this ’Divine Formation’?”

Xun Zixian hesitated, sighed, ”It resembles... but I can’t be sure, Divine Formations are nearly lost, not to mention complete diagrams, just a few fragmentary records are scarce.”

”But if this truly is a Divine Formation...”

Xun Zixian’s gaze became immensely solemn, and his tone grew much more serious, ”Then within the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons, there might be hidden a complete lineage of extremely profound Divine Formation inheritance.”

”Otherwise, it would definitely be impossible to construct such a complete, intricate, and grand Divine Formation system...”

”And the formation master who can set up such a large-scale, nearly lost Divine Formation is likely... extremely terrifying...”

Xun Ziyou’s expression changed, ”Then aren’t Mo Hua and the others in danger?”

Xun Zixian nodded, sighed: ”Hold the Void Sword Order given by the ancestor firmly in your hand, and if anything goes wrong, don’t hesitate to use it.”

Xun Ziyou nodded solemnly.

Then he remembered to pass the information to Mo Hua as well.

Mo Hua being inside, knowing more is always useful.

However, these words are really too many, and the Original Magnet sensing is interfered, and can’t be sent out temporarily, or if sent, it’s intermittent.

He can only patiently send it little by little.

...

Inside the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons.

Mo Hua received the message, but it was sporadic, the ink blurred together, unable to be distinguished for the moment.

A large amount of text, if not read together, can easily cause misunderstandings.

So he planned to look it over later.

And soon, Ouyang Mu began learning to forge the Evil Sword under Mo Hua’s guidance, following the old monster cultivator.

In specific artifact refining techniques, Mo Hua of course wasn’t as skilled as Ouyang Mu.

But which materials could be used, which techniques were problematic, which would let evil thoughts enter the mind, Mo Hua understood clearly.

Because of this, Ouyang Mu was somewhat perfunctory in his refining.

But the old monster cultivator seemed to turn a blind eye to it, completely unconcerned.

After refining for a while, the old monster cultivator nodded, an imperceptible sharpness lurking in his cloudy gaze:

”Now, I will teach you to forge the sword bone.”

Ouyang Mu frowned.

Other things could be muddled through, but the sword bone is the core in sword casting, distinguished as right or wrong, which can’t be perfunctory.

Ouyang Mu said: ”I know how to forge sword bone...”

”No, you don’t.” The old monster cultivator gave a sinister smile, his voice hoarse, ”What I teach you to refine isn’t ordinary sword bone, but...”

The old monster cultivator paused, his cloudy gaze unusually profound, his tone somewhat indescribably eerie.

”Sword bone for ascending to Golden Core... the sword bone for your own Magical Treasure!”
