The Quest for Immortality

Chapter 1132 -690 Crisis_3

Just…

Elder Master Xun’s eyes dimmed.

Now that the Divine Swords are all sealed, and sword arts are Forbidden Techniques, no one can cultivate them, no one dares to, and no one longer pursues them.

Otherwise, I wouldn’t have to force myself to study these clumsy Heavenly secret algorithms…

Elder Master Xun felt physically and mentally exhausted.

He looked again at the compass, and before long, he felt his Divine Sense withering and a piercing pain in his Sea of Consciousness.

Elder Master Xun rubbed his eyebrows, then closed the compass on the desk and rested his eyes.

After a while, he opened his eyes again, intending to continue his deductions, but he accidentally saw a letter on the desk.

It bore the seal of Gu Changhuai.

”Gu Family

Elder Master Xun nodded slightly.

It seems Young Master Mo has quite the good relationship with the Gu family.

The thought of Young Master Mo lifted Elder Master Xun’s mood quite a bit, making his Divine Sense not feel so dry.

This child’s talent in cultivation is somewhat lacking.

But his talent in Divine Sense is exceptional.

Now only in the Foundation Establishment Early Stage, his Divine Sense has already reached the astounding level of Sixteen Patterns, which is truly unbelievable.

He is really a treasure for my Taixu Gate.

As for Seventeen Patterns…

Elder Master Xun pondered for a moment and shook his head.

The barrier of the ultimate Middle Phase in the Foundation Establishment Realm is too profound. It’s not something that can be broken through overnight.

It’s estimated that only by reaching the Foundation Building Middle Stage, or even the Late Stage, and with the upgrade of his realm, he could make a breakthrough in the barrier of the Sea of Consciousness in one fell swoop.

We cannot rush this…

During this period, it’s time to settle down, learn more Formation Patterns, and secure a stronger foundation.

Elder Master Xun was momentarily stunned; he realized that it’s been quite a while since he last paid attention to Young Master Mo.

But this child is honest, talented, and hardworking, very reassuring, so there’s no need for any reminders.

Not only that, he even taught some of the Formation classes on my behalf.

Elder Master Xun felt comforted.

He prepared to continue deducing the compass, but as soon as his Divine Sense moved, he sensed something was not right.

Young Master Mo’s figure was blurry and indistinct; he was occupied and busy, but it seemed like he wasn’t Drawing Formations.

Elder Master Xun paused, a heaviness settling in his heart.

What exactly was Young Master Mo doing?

Apart from Drawing Formations, what else could he do?

Except for Drawing Formations…

Elder Master Xun thought about it; Young Master Mo’s physical body isn’t strong, and his Spiritual Power is weak, a delicate little kid, what can he do?

Elder Master Xun frowned, feeling slightly uneasy.

…

On the other hand, in the small fishing village.

Gu An and Gu Quan had rushed to the small fishing village upon the orders of Gu Changhuai, bringing several Spiritual Artifacts for protection.

A Pure Heart Mirror.

A Soothing Jade.

And a repelling evil hairpin.

These three Spiritual Artifacts, treasured by the Gu family, although only Second Grade, are very precious due to their special effects and rare materials.

It’s uncertain whether Young Master Mo would find them useful, but there’s no harm in trying.

Additionally, using the Gu Family’s secret order, Young Master Mo also summoned more than twenty Foundation Establishment cultivators from the Gu Family.

The risk in the well is unknown, and surely not everyone can go down, and there are not many soothing Spiritual Artifacts.

Young Master Mo planned for himself, Gu An and Gu Quan, both in Foundation Establishment Late Stage, to first go down into the well with the Pure Heart and Soothing Artifacts to scout out the situation, and then decide based on the circumstances.

This was currently the most prudent approach.

Later, Young Master Mo ordered Gu An and Gu Quan to, in the capacity of Taoist Court Officials, command all the Fish Cultivators in the small fishing village to stay at home and not go out, and had other Gu Family cultivators stationed strictly within the village.

Before departure, however, a Fish Cultivator found Young Master Mo.

He was Old Yu’s eldest son, and father to Little Shunzi and Little Shuizi, Young Master Mo remembered his name to be “Yu Dahe.”

Without another word, he knelt down, his expression resolute as he pleaded:

”Young Master, let me go too!”

Young Master Mo helped him up and shook his head: “No, it’s too dangerous.”

Yu Dahe remained kneeling, his eyes becoming slightly red, “Little Shunzi and Little Shuizi, they are my own sons

Mo Hua sighed, pondered for a long time, and then agreed, “Alright.”

Yu Dahe’s expression brightened, filled with gratitude.

Mo Hua’s mind stirred slightly.

This time, the destination was a fishing village contaminated by the Evil God.

Since he was not a Fish Cultivator and did not understand many of the matters related to Fish Cultivators, bringing Yu Dahe along should be very helpful.

Moreover, the ones being rescued were his two sons.

If these two children could not be saved, Yu Dahe, as a father, would have to endure double the pain of losing his sons; rather than that, it might be better to let him take a chance.

Afterward, Mo Hua, along with Gu An, Gu Quan, and Yu Dahe, went to the well behind the small fishing village.

Gu An had already been observing along the way and now couldn’t help but ask,

”Young Master, is the Crossing River Dragon hidden in this well?”

Mo Hua nodded.

Gu An and Gu Quan exchanged looks.

Yu Dahe also weakly said, “This is the well our village drinks from, people can’t be hidden inside

”Just watch

After saying this, Mo Hua took out his brush and ink and began to draw a Formation around the well.

Once the Formation was drawn, the Formation Patterns lit up, and the well suddenly trembled, then revealed its true appearance just like that night.

This was a dry well, and indeed, the actual entrance to the Evil God.

At the same time, crimson blood mist gushed out.

However, only Mo Hua could see this kind of blood mist.

The expressions of Gu An, Gu Quan, and the others showed shock; they hadn’t expected the secret to truly be hidden within the well.

However, they couldn’t see the bloody color within the mist, feeling only that the mist had gotten thicker, and their bodies felt cooler; although it was daytime, it felt somewhat gloomy.

Just as Mo Hua was about to go down, he suddenly remembered something.

He recalled that on that night, when the Crossing River Dragon jumped into the well, it was carrying a basket of fish, containing several large dead fish.

Those dead fish had big heads and patterned bodies, and looked somewhat ugly.

Mo Hua was somewhat puzzled.

What was the purpose of the Crossing River Dragon bringing those dead fish?

He pondered for a moment, feeling that since the Crossing River Dragon took them, he definitely needed to bring them too.

When in doubt, it’s always right to learn from others.

Mo Hua took out paper and pen, drew the appearance of those dead fish, and then asked Yu Dahe, “What kind of fish is this?”

Yu Dahe frowned, looked for a long time, and finally remembered, “It should be the Dead Pattern Fish.”

”Dead Pattern Fish?” Mo Hua was slightly stunned, but without asking further, he directly said, “Can you get them?”

”Yes!” Yu Dahe asserted confidently.

Then he ran off to the front of the village without another word and returned about 30 minutes later with three large dead fish, the very gray and ugly “Dead Pattern Fish.”

It looked like they were borrowed from a family in the village.

Mo Hua nodded his head.

Now that the preparations were complete, they could go down the well.

Before descending, Mo Hua pondered for a moment, and then cautioned one more time,

”I’ll say this in advance; this well is extremely dangerous. Once inside, you must obey my instructions thoroughly, without the slightest error, otherwise the consequences could be very dire

Yu Dahe was taken aback, then clenched his teeth and solemnly nodded.

Mo Hua also said to Gu An and Gu Quan,

”Little Brother An, Little Brother Quan, the same goes for you.”

Gu An and Gu Quan’s expressions were slightly stern, but they also firmly nodded.

They were born into the Gu Family and served as Court Officials in the Taoist Court, dealing with Sin Cultivators and Evil Cultivators on a regular basis, which was not without risks.

Though not embracing death, they were not the type to fear it.

Moreover, they did not think that their lives were more precious than that of Young Master Mo in front of them.

For Young Master Mo, who was so young and only at the early stages of Foundation Establishment to risk himself, how could the two brothers hesitate?

”Young Master Mo, we’ll listen to you.”

Gu An and Gu Quan said in unison.

Mo Hua nodded slightly, then took a deep breath, looked at the bottom of the well shrouded in a blood mist, deep and impenetrable, and said solemnly,

”Let’s go down.”

”Yes!” Gu An and the others nodded.

Then Gu An and Gu Quan jumped down first.

Yu Dahe, murmuring his two sons’ names in his heart and with a resolute expression, followed closely behind.

Lastly, it was Mo Hua; he no longer hesitated and leapt into the well, the entrance to the Evil God, shrouded in a bloody mist.
