Immortality Through Array Formations

Chapter 2552: Chapter 37: ”Cunning” Scheme (Part 3)

”How could I presume to guess Uncle’s thoughts?”

”If Uncle’s thoughts were so simple that I could guess them, then would he truly be a Taoist cultivating the Gui Tao?”

”Or perhaps, if I feel I’ve truly guessed Uncle’s thoughts, it might very well be because... Uncle intentionally let me guess them?”

At this thought, Mo Hua suddenly started to panic again.

”No, I can’t overthink it, that’s enough. If I think too much, and truly summon Uncle here, then I’m doomed...”

Even dwelling on it further, Mo Hua faintly felt as if he was experiencing a ’Planting Devil in Taoist Heart’.

It’s as if Uncle had unknowingly planted a ’Demon Seed’ in his mind.

Mo Hua hurriedly gathered his thoughts, calmed his mind, and temporarily stopped considering Uncle’s plans.

Yet his heart felt incredibly heavy.

He had a premonition that one day in the future, he would inevitably have to ’meet’ Uncle.

He even had the feeling now that Uncle seemed to be getting closer and closer to him.

And one day in the future, he would have to face not only Uncle’s wily minds, but very possibly Uncle’s ’true form’.

How strong Uncle’s ’true form’ really was, Mo Hua dared not even imagine.

With his current cultivation, formation, and divine thought expertise, he truly stood no chance against Uncle’s true form.

In the blink of an eye, he feared Uncle would turn him into a ’toy’, play with him until death.

He wouldn’t even know how he died.

Mo Hua felt a strong sense of urgency rising in his heart.

”Core Formation!”

Only by forming his core as soon as possible, elevating his realm, and further enhancing his divine sense could he survive Uncle’s grasp.

Additionally, he needed to learn more advanced Heavenly Mechanism Causality Skills to resolve the fierce ghost and evil spirits situation Uncle left for him.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t dare break the killing prohibition lightly in the future.

Any act of breaking the prohibition would generate evil qi.

For normal cultivators, the backlash from killing one or two people is actually very mild.

But Mo Hua was different; as long as he killed, even a slight amount of evil qi would become a ’trigger’, activating the fierce ghost in his life chart, forming a massive backlash.

The evil spirits and fierce ghost would stimulate his killing intent, warp his mind, devour his memory, and extinguish his humanity, leading him to complete and utter ruin.

Without profound causality skills, there was no way to break this life chart, nor dissolve these evil spirits.

And this setup was Uncle’s doing.

Once he broke the killing prohibition too frequently, causing the fate to draw too often, Mo Hua was certain that Uncle would notice, thus ’locate’ him, directly allowing wily minds to descend upon him.

That is to say, each additional time he breaks the killing prohibition in the future, and each extra induced backlash by the fierce spirits,

the probability of being noticed by Uncle increases.

The ’encounter’ with Uncle would then arrive a little sooner.

Thinking of that day, Mo Hua’s scalp started to tingle.

”Form the core as soon and as quickly as possible...”

Mo Hua used inner vision to ensure that the evil spirits were restrained, his life chart stable, and his sea of consciousness problem-free, then gathered his belongings, erasing the traces of the formation within the cave.

After leaving the cave, Mo Hua swept his divine sense around the surroundings.

As expected, the other elders of Yin Corpse Valley were gone, and no longer dared to pursue him.

Mo Hua breathed a slight sigh of relief, then matched the map to determine his direction, his body transforming into a stream of water light, escaping toward the direction of the Great Wilderness...
