The Quest for Immortality

Not to mention this is to help Mo Hua, Fan Jin is even more invigorated, not daring to show a trace of negligence.

Everything was arranged perfectly, and the faces of everyone were grim with determination.

Gu Changhuai nodded, and then everyone activated their Concealment Spiritual Tools, slipping into the Large Formation according to the flaws pinpointed by Elder Master Xun, avoiding the Demon and Monster Earth Veins, killing all the way, and found the Formation Pivot.

The Formation Pivot was set in a bloody stone chamber.

Inside the chamber, there were indeed twenty to thirty Evil Formation Masters, busy using human blood as ink and white bone as a medium to lay out the Evil Formations, gradually advancing the construction progress of the Blood Sacrifice Array.

Gu Changhuai said nothing, drew his longsword, and in one swift motion, cleanly beheaded an Evil Formation Master.

Xia Canonical Official thrust out his sword, ice-cold blood sealing the throat.

Fan Jin also swung his large hammer, with the force of a fierce tiger.

The other Golden Core Stewards also joined in the fight.

The twenty to thirty Evil Formation Masters were either slashed at the throat by the Ice Swords, or had their chests shattered by the double hammers, or were blasted to death by spells, or had their necks broken... they all perished in an instant.

Gu Changhuai set fire to their bodies before retreating.

Within the Large Formation, Evil Thoughts were rampant, Blood Qi spread, and there were endless blood and flesh demon monsters; they dared not linger.

On the way, a few Golden Core Demon Cultivators tried to block their path, but were unsuccessful, and a few were killed.

After the Taoist Court officials retreated, they took a brief rest outside the Mistwater River.

Gu Changhuai burned the sandalwood incense given by Elder Master Xun, to calm the mind and cleanse away evil energy, then led everyone to the next location to continue slaughtering the Evil Formation Masters...

Gu Changhuai acted in secret, with ruthless means, killing one group after another, moving locations, and sending each Evil Formation Master to their deaths.

Mr. Tu was finally driven to the brink.

...

Within the Desolate Heaven Blood Sacrifice Formation, Evil God Temple.

In a secret room.

Mr. Tu’s originally deathly pale face now revealed a hideous look.

”It’s truly that damned Gu Changhuai, killing my Formation Masters...”

Shangguan Wang said coldly, ”How does the Taoist Court know the whereabouts of these Evil Formation Masters accurately? Who leaked the information?”

Mr. Tu’s eyes were sharp, ”Gu Changhuai... he breached Yanluo Mountain before, he must have obtained the materials of the Blood Sacrifice Array’s Formation Diagram and deduced something from it...”

Shangguan Wang frowned deeply.

Gu Changhuai may not understand formations, but within the Qian Learning State Boundary, there are many formation experts, especially Elder Master Xun from Taixu Gate, who is a Fifth Grade Array Grandmaster with unfathomable skill.

If the Blood Sacrifice Array remains sealed and the Formation Diagram doesn’t leak, Elder Master Xun might not deduce anything.

But once the Formation Diagram is leaked, with Spirit Traces to follow, Elder Master Xun’s formation skills make it not difficult to deduce part of the Large Formation layout.

Especially the outer layout of the Large Formation, which is relatively crude.

Once this part of the layout is understood, the positions of the Formation Masters naturally get exposed to the cleaver of the Taoist Court.

Shangguan Wang’s expression grew increasingly dour.

In such a long-planned scheme, the Formation Masters are exceedingly important.

If too many Evil Formation Masters die, the Large Formation cannot be fully activated, the Divine Lord of the Great Wilderness cannot be resurrected, and his ambition of ”eternal life” cannot be realized.

Moreover, he had abandoned the position of a Powerful Elder of the Shangguan Family.

Once the incident is exposed, not only will he gain nothing, but he will also be hunted and besieged by the Great Families, thereby becoming a demon monster that cannot see light.

”Mr. Tu...” Shangguan Wang gritted his teeth, blood stained his eyes, ”we must... make plans early.”

Mr. Tu was also frowning.

He naturally did not want a thousand years of painstaking efforts to be destroyed in an instant.

He did not want any accidents in the resurrection of the Divine Lord.

Otherwise, he would not be able to answer to the Master of the Great Wilderness, who would certainly have a place for him in the endless purgatory of the Great Wilderness.

But the current problem is extremely severe.

Because of the disturbance at the Sword Discussion Conference, the Blood Sacrifice Array had to be hastily activated.

Although it was successfully launched, the formation is ultimately incomplete; it hasn’t been fully constructed.

Especially the marginal areas, which cannot be connected into a whole through the Formation Pivot, to fulfill his previous grand vision and pose a fatal threat to the Qian Learning State Boundary.

Therefore, he could only make his Evil Formation Masters work day and night.

The Desolate Heaven Blood Sacrifice Formation is too vast and extensive; the manpower was already stretched thin to begin with, and at this time, that damned Gu Changhuai intervened, killing the Evil Formation Masters he had painstakingly cultivated.

Especially at Yanluo Mountain, the slaughter of seventy to eighty Evil Formation Masters made Mr. Tu’s heart bleed.

Now, Gu Changhuai is still killing.

Evil Formation Masters are still dying.

The situation is further worsening.

If this continues, once the Large Formation completely stops functioning, everything will be over.

We must find ways to quickly complete the Desolate Heaven Blood Sacrifice Array and let the Divine Lord descend as soon as possible...

Mr. Tu pondered for a moment, his pupils shaking, and he spoke in a low voice:

”At the current moment, there is only one person who can help us...”

Shangguan Wang was startled upon hearing this and asked, ”Who?”

Mr. Tu’s gaze narrowed, and he spoke slowly, word by word:

”Mo Hua...”

Shangguan Wang was momentarily stunned.

He didn’t expect Mr. Tu to hold Mo Hua in such high regard.

Just...

Shangguan Wang frowned in thought, then sneered, ”You mean to rely on a Foundation Establishment Disciple to build the Large Formation for you?”

Mr. Tu shook his head, ”He is not an ordinary Foundation Establishment Disciple; he is the unrivaled formation leader in the Qian Learning State Boundary...”

Shangguan Wang’s expression changed slightly.

The scenes of the Sword Discussion Conference flashed back in his mind, and Shangguan Wang frowned for a moment, also showing a deep look of apprehension.

...

In the dungeon of the Great Wilderness Prison.

Mo Hua was still studying the white bone hoop above his head when suddenly a chill struck, making his entire body cold. He glanced towards the cell door and indeed saw the tall and thin Mr. Tu standing there eerily like a hanging ghost.

”Little brother...”

Mr. Tu’s voice was still cold, but his wording was much more courteous, ”This old man has a matter and requests your assistance.”

”What is it?” Mo Hua asked.

Mr. Tu got straight to the point, ”Formation Painting.”

”Formation Painting?” Mo Hua asked in confusion, ”What kind of formation?”

Mr. Tu’s pupils slightly contracted, his tone serious and slow:

”Desolate Heaven Blood Sacrifice Formation...”

Mo Hua felt his heart tremble violently, even missing a breath. It took him a moment to suppress the excitement surging in his heart, and he refused with a righteously indignant expression:

”No, I won’t paint it!”
