Immortality Through Array Formations

Chapter 2833: Chapter 133: Gui Tao Branch Line_2

Qianxue State Boundary, it should be the same.

Although Mo Hua didn’t see Uncle directly, he can roughly guess that Uncle’s shadow is hidden in some dark corner, or on someone.

However, where this ”shadow” is hiding is something he hasn’t figured out yet.

And in all these events, Uncle did things secretly and simply, without creating much fanfare or manipulating too many wily minds.

Instead, he connected ”points” into ”lines” to drive an entire ”surface.”

Using a single clone, he formed a tricky calculation line to drive the overall situation development.

What I have to do now is still to learn from Uncle.

Involving a scale of one hundred thousand people, it doesn’t actually require calculating for each individual.

Instead, it’s about learning to divide these forces into ”lines,” and then individually calculating each line.

Because in the battlefield, the movements of a type of troops line are unified.

Within this troops line, generally all actions of the barbarian soldiers are the same.

Learn to divide the cause and effect lines, which allows for using the least divine sense, to conduct the greatest degree of multi-line tricky calculations, thus controlling a larger scale of battle.

Upon this thought, Mo Hua’s mind became clear, gaining a deeper understanding.

Indeed, one has to learn to discover problems themselves, try solving them themselves.

When not knowing how to solve, think about how people stronger than oneself do it, and then learn from them.

Mo Hua didn’t hesitate, immediately starting the attempt he just figured out, using tricky calculations to deduce the movements of one hundred thousand battles.

As soon as he moved his divine thought, Mo Hua paused, his brow gradually furrowing.

He realized another problem:

Using Planting Devil in Taoist Heart could possibly be discovered by Uncle.

How about Heavenly secret Tricky Calculation?

Heavenly secret Tricky Calculation is also the inheritance that Uncle unconsciously ”taught” him, the top divine thought skill, which few can grasp besides Uncle, perhaps only himself.

Would using tricky calculation also be detected by Uncle?

But... can he not use it?

Mo Hua thought for a moment and found he couldn’t.

Planting Devil in Taoist Heart can be not used, he can think of another way to ”guide” others’ inner desires.

But Heavenly secret Tricky Calculation cannot be given up.

Heavenly secret Tricky Calculation has no replacement, Mo Hua cannot create other methods comparable to it.

Without using Heavenly secret Tricky Calculation, many things he himself cannot calculate.

Most importantly, Mo Hua has long combined Heavenly secret Calculation and Heavenly secret Tricky Calculation in practice, making these two divine thought skills heavily intertwined, even fused together, hard to distinguish.

This forms a ”habit” in the long term deducing.

Sometimes Mo Hua can’t even tell if he is using Heavenly secret Calculation or Heavenly secret Tricky Calculation.

Once Heavenly secret Tricky Calculation is sealed, then Heavenly secret Calculation must also be sealed together.

This equals self-severing the arms, how could he play chess with Uncle?

Mo Hua frowned in contemplation for a long time, feeling that it still wouldn’t work.

Heavenly secret Calculation certainly cannot be given up, can’t abandon it out of fear of detection by Uncle.

He sighed, could only hope Uncle wouldn’t discover him.

At least, his Heavenly secret Tricky Calculation is fused with Heavenly secret Calculation in use, hopefully can muddle the Heavenly secret somewhat.

”I hope the Heavenly secret Calculation taught by Master can cover the traces of Tricky Calculation, so Uncle won’t notice my small moves...”

Mo Hua silently thought.

No matter what has to be done, Mo Hua no longer hesitated, began to use tricky calculation lines, deducing the war of cultivator-level ten thousand scale.

He divided the troops of Bone Remnant Department one by one into ”lines.”

Cannon fodder barbarian slaves, ordinary barbarian soldiers, elite barbarian armor soldiers, Bone heavy armor soldiers, etc., each planned into one or several ”troop lines.”

Each troop line, as a separate cause and effect line, uses Heavenly secret Calculation to deduce its various actions and changes.

Then link all troop lines together, again using Heavenly secret Tricky Calculation, carrying out multi-line complex deduction.

Thereby forming a whole, controlling the overall situation changes and the twists of victory and defeat.

In the vast sand table, there appeared no changes on the surface, yet the invisible cause and effect manifested in Mo Hua’s eyes, transitioning and flowing.

Mo Hua recorded all these transitions, using them as the basis for battle formation planning.

After deducing for two days, the general plan was clear in Mo Hua’s mind.

That evening, Mo Hua gathered everyone, in the large sand table, explaining all the troop dispatch processes, including who would lead what number of troops, go to where, battle how many of the enemy’s troops, and how victory and defeat would shift, in detail.

In everyone’s eyes, it seemed less like ”dispatching troops” before a battle and more like ”replaying” after a battle.

The battle hasn’t even started, to be replaying, is indeed appalling.

Lugu also froze for a long time.

On the previous journey, without a real large-scale battle, Mo Hua’s deducing of situations and fortunes usually just consisted of a few brief words.

But facing a true battle now, he finally understood what ”foreknowledge” meant, what terrifying ”prophecy” meant.

Mo Hua said, ”This fight with Bone Remnant Department, defense and delay are the primary focus, the key aim is not to annihilate the barbarian soldiers of Bone Remnant Department, but to conquer Bone Remnant.”

”Shugubu is the main force leader.”

”If the main force Bone Remnant dies or is defeated, then his remaining forces will naturally scatter.”

Hearing him, everyone nodded.

”However...” Mo Hua frowned, ”Bone Remnant is quite strong, this battle may not be smooth; if it drags on, unable to be concluded swiftly, the casualties in other battlefields will certainly increase...”

Dan Zhu and others showed heavy expressions.

Lugu frowned, couldn’t help saying, ”Had we known, during negotiations I should have struck first, kill Bone Remnant the fool, we wouldn’t be wasting this effort now.”

Mo Hua looked at Lugu and said, ”Had we known, if you read according to my words, the battle might not need to be fought.”

Lugu was speechless against Mo Hua’s Yin and Yang.

Mo Hua suddenly thought of something, asked him, ”How did you break down in negotiations? Did you mention your brother?”

Lugu said, ”Mentioned.”

Mo Hua asked, ”What did you say?”

Lugu shook his head, ”Not much, just briefly mentioned, Bone Remnant’s attitude suddenly seemed off, talked a bit more, then we started fighting...”

Mo Hua’s face showed a strange expression.

Just a brief mention, attitude turns off... Normally shouldn’t be.

Could it be that the setup over Sishen, Bone Remnant the General was also involved? Or at least aware?

Mo Hua looked at Lugu again.

If so, this negotiation might have been doomed to ”break down” from the start, Bone Remnant definitely wouldn’t have given way.

But... why would Bone Remnant participate in plotting against Sishen?

Mo Hua considered, realizing this doesn’t really pose an issue.

Sishen was too strong in life, so strong that even the Great Chief was wary, to Bone Remnant this is a more indomitable ”strong enemy.”

Then so...

Mo Hua’s gaze subtly flickered, gradually developing a plan in mind.

...

Three days later, the battle commenced.

Close to one hundred thousand barbarian soldiers in engagement made the mountains and plains filled with battling soldiers, the scene grand and magnificent, like the rivers rushing, the winds scattering the clouds.

But Dan Zhu and others could discern from the chaotic state that the overall situation, although appearing vast and chaotic, aligned completely with the troop line movement Mo Hua outlined.

All marveled at Mr. Witch’s ”Divine Favor” being so profound, actually receiving such detailed ”prophecy” from Divine Lord.

The battle continued to advance.

The barbarian slaves of Bone Remnant Department were led away by the barbarian soldiers of Danque Tribe, blocked at a narrow valley entrance.

Lugu’s underling Golden Cores led a group of barbarian soldiers, clashed in open wilderness with the troops of Bone Remnant Department.

But since sharing the same roots, the terrain being open with many options, for the moment neither side went all out.

Meanwhile, their respective Bone heavy troops were also engaged in mutual struggle.

Mo Hua entrusted his entire heavy armor soldiers to Shugu the previous surrendered heavy armor soldier ”Adage” as commander.

Over three hundred Bone Heavy Armor Soldiers versus Bone Remnant Department’s two hundred heavy armor soldiers.

Mo Hua’s side of heavy troops obviously had the upper hand.

But Adage, adhering to Mo Hua’s command, didn’t launch heavy attacks either, thus both sides endured in a stalemate.

Meanwhile, aside from the relatively stable battle, on another side in the valley, the skirmish between Lugu and Bone Remnant was fierce.

Both sides were generals, had past relations, grievances, and mutual dislike.

Moreover, the fight’s direction of victory and defeat relied significantly on their life and death, hence once fighting commenced, it was like thunder crashing into earth fire, difficult to separate, the entire valley crushed by Golden Core Power, scattered with debris.
