Immortality Through Array Formations

Chapter 2070  Chapter 986: Grade 3_2

It was equivalent to originally being one team of ”Taoist Soldiers,” now itʼs three teams.

The speed of hunting naturally increased.

Moreover, thatʼs not all...

Mo Hua is now in his eighth year at the Taixu Gate and is already a Foundation Establishment Late Stage disciple.

Before him, there are two new batches of disciples.

These disciples all follow his ”Brother Moʼs” established process for Monster Hunting and enter the mountains to hunt monsters.

This way, the number of people is even greater...

Even thinking about it makes Mo Huaʼs scalp tingle.

Refining Demon Mountain is vast, and there are many Monster Beasts, so itʼs not likely to be entirely hunted out, but at least the part of the mountain controlled by Taixu Gate canʼt accommodate Mo Hua and his fellow disciples.

Moreover, Monster Beasts arenʼt fools.

Once the ”Taoist Soldier” hunting process takes shape, Monster Beasts will run off to other parts of the mountains.

In this way, there are even fewer Monster Beasts in the Taixu Gateʼs ”territory”.

”Wonʼt even leave me a bit...”

Mo Hua looked at the empty mountain top and sighed.

He realized that this couldnʼt continue.

This kind of rampant hunting is unsustainable, lest one day the Refining Demon Mountain is depleted.

”Need to figure out a way to make some rules to ensure the sustainable reproduction of Monster Beasts on Refining Demon Mountain...”

Mo Hua silently thought to himself.

Otherwise, before he came, Refining Demon Mountain was fine.

After he came, the mountain of Monster Beasts got wiped out.

Wouldnʼt that make him seem like a ”calamity”?

No, no...

Mo Hua shook his head repeatedly.

Then, he continued looking for Monster Beasts.

But after wandering nearby for a while, he couldnʼt find a suitable target. Occasionally, he saw a few, but they were too weak, not worth drawing his sword over.

Mo Hua had no choice but to venture a bit deeper into the Refining Demon Mountain.

There should be more Monster Beasts deeper in.

Leaving the Taixu Gateʼs mountain area, he continued deeper, where the terrain was steep, the woods eerie, and the miasma heavy; indeed, more Monster Beasts appeared.

Not long after, Mo Hua encountered a Huang Diao rat demon.

Mid-phase of the Second Grade, with dark yellow fur, rushing with a gale, though a rat demon, itʼs as tall as a person.

This rat demon, upon seeing the solitary Mo Hua, twitched its nose and smelled fresh human scent, immediately pounced aggressively.

Monster Beasts are never polite about eating people.

Mo Hua conjured the Fireball Technique to battle the Huang Diao rat demon.

One man and one demon tangled, yellow gales and fireballs whooshing, exchanged dozens of blows, and Mo Hua slowly furrowed his brow.

In combat with the Huang Diao rat demon, he realized a problem.

The real world is unlike the Sea of Consciousness.

In the Sea of Consciousness, the kill is a naked Divine Thought confrontation; both partiesʼ killing moves can directly harm the Divine Thought or even the Divine Soul.

But in reality, human Divine Sense is lodged in the Sea of Consciousness.

A demonʼs Monster Sensing is similarly housed in the skull sea.

This is a limitation, but also a protection.

Mo Huaʼs Divine Thought isnʼt strong enough to directly pierce through flesh to harm a cultivatorʼs or Monster Beastʼs inner Divine Sense or Monster Sensing.

At least, he doesnʼt have that ability right now.

The only method is through the eyes.

Divine Thought into Sword, exiting from Mo Huaʼs eyes, must pass through the eyes of another cultivator or Monster Beast to harm their internal sense.

He has to look into the Monster Beastʼs eyes.

The Monster Beast also has to look into his eyes.

Only then can the Godslaying Sword exiting work effectively.

This was a realization Mo Hua came to during actual combat with the Huang Diao rat demon.

But the problem is, this Huang Diao rat demon, while large in size, has very small eyes.

Blood-red, narrow, catʼs-eye-like pupils positioned on the sides of the rat demonʼs head.

Itʼs difficult for Mo Hua to make eye contact with it.

Plus, this Huang Diao rat demon moves quickly, darting left and right, kicking up yellow winds, wind and sand obscuring vision; Mo Hua could hardly catch sight of its eyes.

Without seeing the eyes, the Godslaying Sword cannot penetrate the flesh and cut into its Divine Soul.

He couldnʼt use this Huang Diao rat demon to ”test the sword.”

After exchanging dozens more blows, the Huang Diao rat demonʼs small eyes still didnʼt give Mo Hua a sliver of an opening.

Mo Hua had no choice but to give up.

Though he could kill this mid-phase Second Grade rat demon if he wanted to, through some means.

But that would be too labor-intensive.

He came into the mountain to test the sword, not for Monster Hunting.

Moreover, this is Refining Demon Mountain; once the battle is prolonged, making too much commotion, it could easily attract other Monster Beasts, leading to trouble.

Mo Hua glanced at the Huang Diao rat demon one last time, then his figure flickered, transforming into mist and disappearing.

At this moment, the Huang Diao rat demon didnʼt know that its small eyes had saved it.

Seeing Mo Hua turning into mist and vanishing.

The Huang Diao rat demon was momentarily stunned, then roared angrily.

It pressed its nose to the ground, sniffed for a while, and finally caught another whiff of a delicious scent.

The Huang Diao rat demon felt greed, but its movements hesitated.

Its intelligence might be weak, but it was instinctively alert. After nearly a hundred rounds of fighting, it sensed that this young Human Race wasnʼt like ordinary cultivators.

He seemed not to have any skills, just repeating the Fireball Technique, but he carried a chilling presence.

The Huang Diao rat demon bared its teeth, but ultimately didnʼt dare to pursue, instead burrowing into the ground and fleeing the other way.

In another part of the forest, Mo Hua continued searching for Monster Beasts.

Later, he also encountered a few more, including a Wolf Demon, Dog Demon, Snake Demon, and Bear Demon, all with Realms ranging from mid-phase to late-stage Second Grade.

Yet not a single one allowed him a proper chance to test the sword.

Unlike humans, Monster Beasts vary greatly, with bizarre and diverse forms.

These Monster Beasts had either crooked, slanted, narrow, small, or single eyes... making it impossible for eye contact.
