Immortality Through Array Formations

Chapter 2272: Chapter 1050: Taoist Heart

Mo Hua became the ”leader,” but these days, being a leader is no easy task.

Especially since the disciples of the Four Sects and Eight Gates and Twelve Streams are all top talents from each Sect, with good backgrounds, great talent, and high self-esteem. Everyone has their own thoughts, and once gathered together, it’s difficult to manage the chaos in people’s hearts.

They are all ”enemies” of the Taixu Gate, having been defeated at the Sword Discussion Conference by the Taixu Gate.

At the same time, there are also grudges among themselves.

For example, during the Asura Battle, the Sever Gold Sect ambushed the Lingxiao Sect, leaving the Lingxiao Sect critically hurt.

Gui Water Sect ambushed the Purple Mist Sect, resulting in significant casualties.

Other sects, during the melees, also engaged in various killings.

But their biggest ”enemy” is Mo Hua, this ”leader.”

It could be said that the vast majority of the sect geniuses present, especially the top heavenly talents, have ”died” in Mo Hua’s hands at least once.

Some have even ”died” more than once.

Now, forced by the situation, they have no choice but to bow to Mo Hua, but deep down, they are absolutely unwilling.

Obeying outwardly but not inwardly.

Meanwhile, the Evil Path Great Formation constantly stirs their evil thoughts, hatred, and killing intent.

But with Mo Hua’s growing power, they dare not question him.

However, among themselves, disputes are inevitable, with frequent bickering and occasional minor conflicts.

The most outstanding among them is Ye Zhiyuan.

Ye Zhiyuan was once the number one sword control talent of the Daluo Sect, gifted and talented, but incredibly arrogant and foul-mouthed, offending everyone he met, leading to poor relations.

Now, with the Four Sects and Eight Gates and Twelve Streams mingled together, his mouth hasn’t stopped, mocking one sect’s inadequate swordsmanship here, or ridiculing another sect’s poor heritage there, as if his Daluo Flying Sword Control is the strongest in the world.

The crowd was provoked by him, their tempers flaring, unable to stop arguing.

Even a few disciples from the Taixu Gate were affected.

But Ye Zhiyuan’s foul mouth and shamelessness make it impossible for anyone to out-talk him.

Mo Hua turned and asked Ye Zhiyuan:

”Ye Zhiyuan, does your father know that your sword control doesn’t go far? Is that why he named you that, hoping you’ll fly your sword further?”

This statement rendered Ye Zhiyuan speechless immediately.

The once arrogant Ye Zhiyuan was silenced, as if he’d swallowed a fly, unable to utter a word.

Ye Zhiyuan fell silent, yet the crowd was still restless. After all, with hundreds gathered, each having different motives, disputes were unavoidable.

Mo Hua coldly said: ”Don’t blame me for not warning you, we’re within the Evil Path Great Formation.”

”You’d best all be quiet, clear your minds and concentrate, stop spouting useless nonsense, and refrain from blaming or resenting each other or digging up old grudges.”

”Trouble comes from the mouth.”

”Careless words will magnify the evil within yourself, and will also create hatred in others’ hearts.”

”These are all evil thoughts, karmic fires, and negative consequences.”

”In the long run, the discord in your hearts will grow, hatred will breed, killing intent will arise, and your minds will gradually become unstable, eventually falling into bloodlust and madness, within the Evil Path Great Formation, step by step, falling into the evil demon...”

”Don’t think verbal matters are trivial. Often, they’re the root of disaster...”

The Evil Path Great Formation uses words as a trigger.

Planting Devil in Taoist Heart also uses words as seeds.

Yet such seemingly ordinary but profoundly tricky paths are unknown to these heavenly pride disciples.

Mo Hua’s tone was very stern.

The group of prodigies from the Four Sects and Eight Gates and Twelve Streams felt a chill in their hearts upon hearing, realizing the gravity of the situation.

”There’s one more thing...” Mo Hua warned, ”Don’t easily harbor killing intent towards me.”

”No matter how subtle your killing intent is, I can sense it.”

”Having a killing intent is actually inconsequential, but I kindly advise you, never truly act on it against me, or the ones who will die will only be yourselves.”

Mo Hua calmly swept his gaze over the crowd.

Many lowered their heads, not daring to meet Mo Hua’s eyes.

Mo Hua nodded slightly, ”And one last thing...”

”Don’t think I’m a ’great person’, sentimentally insisting on leading you out of the formation.”

”If you obey, and we work together, we’ll live to exit.”

”If you don’t obey, then your life or death is no concern of mine.”

”Moreover, if anyone is ensnared by evil spirits and becomes ’demonized’ due to disobedience, don’t blame me for being ruthless...”

”Do you really want to fall into being an evil demon?”

All the prodigies turned pale.

Especially the words ”evil demon,” filled them with dread.

Not long ago, they witnessed with their own eyes, their once-brothers, suddenly with blood-red eyes, twisted faces, savage breath, becoming frenzied and bloodthirsty, even devouring human flesh like beasts in front of them...

It completely shattered their understanding.

Previously, lost in slaughter, their hearts filled with evil thoughts, their minds weren’t clear to consider much. But calming down, upon pondering it deeply, they couldn’t help but shiver in fear, cold sweat covering their backs.

”Being possessed” is no joke.

Once fallen into an evil demon, their lives will be ruined.

They would fall from being bright future, highly promising righteous Qianxue geniuses, to take one wrong step, falling into the abyss, becoming slaughterers of their brothers, eaters of human flesh, unwanted by sects, families, and parents, becoming infamous maggot-like demon path scum.

And all of this is but a step away.

Thinking this, everyone broke into a cold sweat.

Someone asked, confused:

”Why is it that we were perfectly fine, but suddenly became... possessed? Is it because... of the Evil Path Great Formation?”
