Immortality Through Array Formations

Chapter 809: Chapter 594 Second Grade_2

Right under the watchful eyes of Elder Master Xun.

The other disciples looked at Mo Hua with sympathy and pity in their eyes.

“Mo Hua is so pitiful…”

“He’s caught the attention of Elder Master Xun…”

“He’s in big trouble now…”

“Just the thought of having to stay under the teacher’s watchful eye in class every day sends chills down my spine…”

...

Elder Master Xun’s ears twitched slightly, and his gaze turned sharp as he called out a few names, “Cheng Mo… Situ Jian, Wen Xuan…”

“…If you wish, you can also sit next to Mo Hua.”

Cheng Mo and the other disciples shuddered, immediately shut their mouths, buried their heads in their desks, and stayed perfectly still, pretending to be turtles.

Elder Master Xun let out a slight snort.

Then class began.

Mo Hua discovered that the handout he held was different from those of the other disciples.

The other disciples were still primarily focusing on First Grade, progressing step by step, to comprehend Second-Grade Formations.

However, in front of Mo Hua was a genuine Second-grade Eleven Patterns Bagua Formation Method.

This handout was very detailed.

Elder Master Xun’s lecture was mainly directed at the other disciples.

But occasionally he would touch on Second-Grade Formations and succinctly explain the essence of these formational principles to Mo Hua.

This way, he could take care of both the ordinary disciples and the excessively “off-syllabus” student Mo Hua’s education.

Mo Hua was touched and began to admire Elder Master Xun.

The subsequent lessons were taught in the same manner.

The others studied First Grade.

Mo Hua studied Second Grade.

Starting from Eleven Stripes, he covered both the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams types of Second-Grade Formations. Elder Master Xun methodically and steadily allowed Mo Hua to solidly learn each formation.

With such a rare opportunity, Mo Hua studied earnestly right beside Elder Master Xun, working conscientiously on Second-Grade Formations beyond the Eleven Patterns.

Elder Master Xun, who had been keeping an eye on Mo Hua, became increasingly astonished by what he saw.

Too fast…

Elder Master Xun knew that Mo Hua had not learned Bagua Formation Method before, so his focus was primarily on the Bagua type of Second-Grade Formation.

Yet these formations, which Mo Hua had obviously never seen or learned before, seemed to make sense to him after just a few glances.

After drawing them a few times, his strokes began to show pattern and form.

If he spent one night on them, his technique would turn to be very skillful by the next day.

And after a while, it even seemed ‘Forged a Thousand Times’, ‘Mastering the Craft’…

As for the Five Elements Formation, it was even more astounding.

Elder Master Xun knew that among the Eight Types of Formations, Mo Hua had learned and was proficient only in the Five Elements Formation.

But “proficient”… wasn’t quite like this…

For the unlearned Bagua Formations, Mo Hua at least had to frown and ponder for a bit before drawing something decent.

Yet for those unlearned Second-grade Eleven Patterns in Five Elements Formation, he almost only had to glance once, and seemingly had a framework in his mind immediately, his strokes were accurate and well-formed…

This was proficiency gained through practice.

Because he had drawn a large number of First-grade Five Elements Formations, he had come to deeply understand the Five Elements Formation principles, building an exceptionally firm foundation, which greatly accelerated his progress in learning Second-Grade Five Elements Formations.

But how many of these “large number of First-grade Five Elements Formations” could there be?

How many could a fifteen-year-old Cultivator draw?

How deeply could they comprehend?

Even a Formation Master who had primarily constructed a Five Elements Formation might only have about this level of understanding…

This kid couldn’t possibly have built a Five Elements Formation, right?

Elder Master Xun pondered with a frown.

What puzzled Elder Master Xun the most was Mo Hua’s Divine Sense.

For a Cultivator at the Foundation Establishment Initial Stage, Mo Hua’s Divine Sense was exceedingly profound, seemingly very resilient…and even had a sort of…everlasting quality…

When deploying formations, it seemed inexhaustible…

This was completely illogical.

Mo Hua’s Divine Sense seemed hazy, as if obscured by something…

Elder Master Xun was very curious, and for the first time in a long while, he felt compelled to break the norm and forcefully probe into the depths of this child…

But he ultimately restrained himself.

That was the rule of the Sect, also a boundary.

Elder Master Xun struggled with himself for a while but then let it go.

In this world, there are always some Cultivators with exceptional talent or deep fortune, or even exceptional intelligence. As long as they are devoted to the path, pure of heart, and avoid the wrong path, it’s fine.

Elder Master Xun glanced at Mo Hua’s clear eyes, full of eagerness to learn, and he silently nodded his head.

Elder Master Xun then let Mo Hua learn on his own.

Mo Hua, with single-minded focus, studied various Second-Grade Five Elements and Bagua Formations one after another.

His foundational knowledge in formations became increasingly robust.

The Second-Grade Formations he mastered grew in number…

There was something Elder Master Xun didn’t say.

These formations originally required Sect contributions to exchange.

But Elder Master Xun wanted to see just how fast Mo Hua could learn. Moreover, to him, a few Second-Grade Formations were a trivial matter, so he didn’t mention this to Mo Hua.

As Mo Hua learned more and more, at a faster pace, the difficulty of the formations he studied increased gradually from Eleven Stripes to Shi’er Stripes…

Finally, Mo Hua had learned all the common Five Elements and Bagua types of Shi’er Stripes.

Next was…Thirteen Stripes.

“Thirteen Stripes…”

Elder Master Xun was somewhat dazed.

So fast…

This…was already the threshold of a Second Grade Initial Stage Formation Master…

This was already the limit for a Foundation Establishment Initial Stage Cultivator’s Divine Sense and Formation knowledge…

Elder Master Xun’s gaze towards Mo Hua completely changed.

He realized he had still underestimated this youngster…

Elder Master Xun frowned and thought deeply before making a silent decision.

Having come this far, he truly wanted to see if Mo Hua would manage to also master the Second-grade Thirteen Stripes Formation.
