Immortality Through Array Formations

Chapter 645 Zhenʼs Deterrence_3

The Five-Colored Formation Pattern imprinted itself upon the ethereal surface of the Taoist Stele.

The ”eyes” of the Source Pattern suddenly widened.

The ancient aura of the Great Dao made it tremble, yet it seemed to excite it immensely.

It was being eroded by the Great Dao bit by bit, but at the same time, it was approaching the essence of the Great Dao, undergoing a transformation...

Mo Hua tried to use the Calculation Method to suppress the Formation Patterns, but his Divine Sense was limited, and inevitably, his speed was still too slow...

A sense of heaviness crept into Mo Huaʼs heart.

It was at that moment a silent and annihilating aura suddenly emerged from atop the Taoist Stele.

This aura, equally ancient, was more domineering, filled with a cold and dead silence that seemed capable of erasing everything.

Above the Taoist Stele, crimson Formation Patterns lit up!

It was the Immortal Pattern containing the power of tribulation lightning that Mo Hua had glimpsed and memorized through the cracks of the Heavenly Dao when he broke the Large Formation, executed Feng Xi, and triggered the Heavenly Dao Formation to bring down heavenly retribution.

With the presence of the Immortal Pattern, a scarlet hue of tribulation lightning appeared atop the Taoist Stele.

In a flicker of lightning, all the spreading Formation Patterns from the ”Five Elements Source Pattern” were erased!

The vitality of the Source Pattern was greatly damaged, its ”eyes” trembling with inexplicable terror.

Immortal Pattern?

Tribulation lightning?

If the Taoist Stele signified the Great Dao that encompasses everything,

then that tribulation lightning symbolized the pure ”Killing Path” that annihilates all things.

The Source Pattern would have never imagined that within Mo Huaʼs Sea of Consciousness, there was an Immortal Pattern inscribed, a tribulation lightning engraved, hiding a shocking lethal tribulation!

The Source Pattern, with the speed of lightning that leaves no time to cover oneʼs ears, shrank back into the ”Five Elements Formation Flow Map.”

Now its ”eyes” closed even tighter, shaking tremulously like a thin line, daring not to open even a slit for fear of ”seeing” something terrifying again.

Mo Hua felt somewhat speechless.

”Arenʼt you just being masochistic? Without a beating, you never learn...”

Now the ”Source Pattern” did not even dare to get angry, it could only hide in the chart, silently playing dead.

Mo Hua shook his head, but also breathed a sigh of relief.

With the Taoist Steleʼs suppression and the Immortal Patternʼs deterrence,

the Five Elements ”Source Pattern” should now be thoroughly honest and dare not harbor any more cunning thoughts.

It would also be much safer for him to deduce Five Elements Formation Patterns in the future.

But at the same time, Mo Hua developed a new curiosity:

What is the relationship between the Immortal Pattern and the Source Pattern?

Could it be that the Immortal Pattern itself is a kind of higher-end ”Source Pattern”?

If that were the case...

By deducing the ”Source Pattern,” one could gain the compiled Five Elements Formation from within the Source Pattern...

Then, if one day, my Divine Sense grew powerful enough to deduce the ”Immortal Pattern,” what would be derived from the ”Immortal Pattern”?

Heavenly tribulation?

Thunder Formation?

Mo Huaʼs heart raced with excitement.

However, these matters were mere conjecture, and he was not yet certain of them.

He must wait until his cultivation was higher, his Divine Sense stronger, and his mastery of formations deeper, to validate these ideas...

Mo Hua sighed.

His cultivation was not yet high enough, his Divine Sense not yet strong enough...

It seemed he needed to expedite his cultivation and achieve Foundation Establishment sooner.

There were so many more powerful formations waiting for him to learn!

His spirits lifted, Mo Hua nodded to himself.

...

On the other hand, in front of the shrine, the Chief Elder was frowning.

Mo Hua and his two companions ”frustrated,” Mr. Zhuang ”defeated,” the Chief Elder had indeed exhaled in contentment for a few days.

But a few days later, the more he thought about it, the more it felt off.

Mr. Zhuang... renowned for his meticulous schemes, did not seem to be the type to fail so simply...

Regarding his three disciples:

As for the siblings, he didnʼt know much about them, so he would not comment.

But speaking only of the Junior Formation Master named Mo, whose talent was astonishing and whose flair for formations was indeed extraordinary, the biggest problem was his lack of virtue!

His schemes were too wily!

Would such a scheming Junior Formation Master really be so dejected simply because he couldnʼt learn a formation?

Or rather, it would be normal for him not to learn it easily, but with his talent, to not learn anything at all was abnormal...

The Chief Elder felt that he might have been played by Mr. Zhuang and his disciple!

What was worse, he had taken it all for true!

The Chief Elder felt his blood boil with anger.

He offered incense before the shrine once more.

This time, the incense burned without any anomaly, finishing steadily.

Yet, the Chief Elderʼs brows knitted even tighter.

No anomaly meant no sign.

Where was the sign?

What happened to the little demon housed in this shrine? Where had it gone?

After examining the shrine for a while, the Chief Elder suddenly froze.

The shrine seemed normal, but below it was a dark spot where... a door seemed to be missing?

Who had broken the great door of the shrine?

No way...

Inside the shrine lay the heritage of the Five Elements Sect.

The great door of the shrine was broken, and the little demon inside was gone.

The Chief Elder felt a tremor in his heart, an unbelievable thought surfacing:

”Could it be that the hidden heritage of my Five Elements Sect has been completely plundered...”

”No way...”
