Immortality Through Array Formations

Chapter 2403: Chapter 1092: Barbaric Wilderness Ancient Array (Part 3)

The process inside, it’s too complicated.

From the premonitions of cause and effect before choosing a Sect, to the clues gotten from Lord Yellow Mountain, to the cause found in the Blood-Colored Fishing Village, and then to the teachings from Patriarch Dugu.

On this basis, step by step deduction, step by step pondering, and then modifying the cultivation method based on the objective condition of one’s weak Sword Dao and strong Divine Way, overcoming various difficulties in the process, coupled with accumulated insights and practice...

And, a "hodgepodge" of various Sword Arrays, Sword Streams, and Emotionless Path.

This is just barely learned.

In summary, indeed... it’s hard to put into words, Mo Hua can only say: "Try to learn, and while learning... you just master it..."

Elder Master Xun was speechless.

Taixu Mind Transforming Sword True Jue, is it something that can be learned just by trying hard?

What kind of "effort" is your try?

Is it the effort of doing as one pleases?

However, seeing the complex expression on Mo Hua’s face, Elder Master Xun could roughly guess that the matter must involve many inconvenient things to speak of.

Not to mention, if his senior brother taught him this Sword Technique, he must have instructed him not to reveal it to anyone.

Mo Hua’s adherence to his senior brother’s commands is also appropriate.

As for the Sword Discussion Conference, where this astonishing sword is revealed... this is also for the Taixu Gate, for all cultivators of the Taixu Gate, inner and outer sect disciples, fighting for Sword Discussion ranking, seeking the fundamental sect interests.

This should further not be blamed on him.

Not only can’t blame him, but he should even be greatly praised.

Thinking of this, Elder Master Xun felt at ease in his heart and decided to turn a blind eye to certain matters, only sternly saying:

"This Sword Technique, harms people and self, easily don’t use it unless at the brink of life and death."

"Especially now, your killing karma is heavy, fate is cursed with deadly evilness, do not rashly use Divine Thought Slaughter, causing the Sea of Consciousness to overdraft, otherwise it may trigger evil qi, Taoist Heart could be eroded, and calamity could arise."

Elder Master Xun spoke with a serious expression.

Mo Hua’s face turned slightly pale, evidently realizing the seriousness of the matter, earnestly nodded.

Then he recalled something, and asked Elder Master Xun:

"Elder, how is Patriarch Dugu? The elder hasn’t had any issues, right? I haven’t seen him for a long time, he hasn’t called me over to learn the sword for a long time."

Mo Hua was somewhat worried.

Elder Master Xun was startled, then sighed deeply:

"Senior brother, he is like a candle in the wind, also beset by disasters, he..."

Elder Master Xun hesitated, only showing a look of melancholy finally saying to Mo Hua, "This matter... you don’t worry about it."

"Oh..." Mo Hua nodded, but was still somewhat concerned about Patriarch Dugu, his expression worried.

Elder Master Xun looked at Mo Hua with gentle eyes, "You take a rest, remember, during this time, Divine Sense can’t be exhausted, can’t steal or overdraft, and don’t give birth to killing intent in mind."

"Okay." Mo Hua agreed.

After finishing speaking, Elder Master Xun turned and left.

His figure was old, strides slow, yet the speed was not slow.

Seeing Elder Master Xun’s figure about to disappear at the door, Mo Hua’s heart leaped, suddenly remembering he hadn’t asked one important matter, hurriedly said:

"Elder!"

Elder Master Xun turned around, looked at Mo Hua, "Is there anything else?"

Mo Hua nodded, then he narrated the matter regarding the Ancient Wilderness Text to Elder Master Xun.

Elder Master Xun was somewhat surprised, "Ancient Wilderness Text? Why are you learning this?"

Mo Hua said: "Mr. Tu, also the secret of the Great Wilderness Evil God, involves some ancient secrets of the Great Wilderness, I want to take the chance now to understand more and prepare against against being trapped by the Great Wilderness’ schemes in the future."

Elder Master Xun guessed Mo Hua only said half of what he meant. Yet Elder Master Xun had always tolerated Mo Hua, not probing into the details.

After pondering for a moment, Elder Master Xun slowly said:

"Each state boundary, involving ancient recorded texts, is actually a kind of Tao cultivation knowledge, because it is only ’knowledge’ or ’learning,’ most cultivators do not pay attention to it, but in fact, their rarity is not inferior to some Heavenly Grade Cultivation Technique or Tao Skill inheritances."

"But these texts are extremely important, sometimes containing great hidden secrets, so most sects with deep foundations will collect them."

"There is indeed some, in the Taixu Gate, from the ancient times of the Great Wilderness, records and interpretations of various ancient texts. But these are all collected in the Inner Mountain’s Scripture Pavilion and are not open to Outer Gate disciples."

Mo Hua eagerly said: "Elder, can I have a look?"

Seeing Mo Hua’s eager face of thirst for knowledge, Elder Master Xun couldn’t quite refuse, so he sighed:

"I’ll give you a token, you can go to the Inner Mountain’s Scripture Pavilion with it and find the jade slips to study."

"However, you must go from here to there; besides this cave dwelling, only the Scripture Pavilion, don’t go to any other places."

"And you may only borrow documents, texts, or jade slips related to the Ancient Wilderness Text. Do not randomly borrow other things, they will break the rules."

"After studying, remember to return the token..."

Mo Hua was thrilled, his eyes brightened with joy, nodding: "Absolutely! Thank you, Elder!"

...

In the time thereafter, Mo Hua frequently went to the Scripture Pavilion.

Taixu Mountain is divided into Outer Mountain, Inner Mountain, and Rear Mountain.

The Outer Mountain is where Outer Gate disciples live, cultivate, and attend classes.

The Inner Mountain is where Inner Sect disciples, instructors, and elders cultivate and reside.

The Rear Mountain is the location of the Vice Sect Leader, Sect Leader, and the cave dwellings of all sect patriarchs.

The Rear Mountain also includes sect ancestral tombs, ancestral halls, and absolute forbidden areas.

Generally speaking, Outer Gate disciples are not allowed to enter the Inner Mountain, much less the Rear Mountain.

However, Mo Hua was special.

To remain low-key and secretive, protecting against being coveted or disturbed by various factions, Mo Hua was now recovering in Elder Master Xun’s cave dwelling at the Rear Mountain, as a sect patriarch.

And where he needed to go was the Inner Mountain’s Scripture Pavilion, also a critical area of the Inner Mountain.

Of course, Mo Hua could not really be "lawless" and wander around randomly.

The path from the Rear Mountain to the Scripture Pavilion, is clearly designated by Elder Master Xun.

Scripture Pavilion, Rear Mountain cave dwelling, along with one mountain trail.

It really is "two points in a line."

Both to prevent Mo Hua from "disappearing," and to guard against his curiosity leading him to run around the Rear Mountain and causing trouble unknowingly.

Elder Master Xun gave Mo Hua no loopholes.

Originally, Mo Hua really planned to "wander around," but eventually gave up.

He finds it a pity.

Of course, studying the Ancient Wilderness Text is the most critical matter, wandering the Rear Mountain can wait, there will be opportunities in the future, not urgent at the moment.

...

The Inner Mountain’s Scripture Pavilion is the Taoist Canon Library of the Inner Sect.

This is truly the core inheritance within Taixu Gate.

Compared with the Outer Mountain, the Scripture Pavilion is not only larger in scale and has a longer history, but its recorded inheritance is also incredibly rich.

Furthermore, most of the grades are Third Grade and above.

Countless books, ancient scrolls, jade slips, diagrams are stacked into walls, the grandeur of the walls stretches endlessly.

Mo Hua marvels, personally experiencing the true "Tao cultivation foundation" of Taixu Gate.

However, he has no eligibility to view any of it.

He can only look at the documents related to the Ancient Wilderness Text.

Mo Hua kept Elder Master Xun’s instructions in mind, only searching these extensive collections for documents related to the Ancient Wilderness Text.

After finding them, Mo Hua noted them down one by one, then went to the Inner Mountain’s Scripture Pavilion Elder to register for borrowing.

The Ancient Wilderness Text is convoluted and abstract.

Taixu Gate has a long-standing heritage, inheriting from Ancient Sects, indeed within the Inner Mountain’s Scripture Pavilion are many records related Ancient Wilderness Texts and some deciphering documents.

However, these documents are quite extensive.

Moreover, annotations on ancient texts come from different past cultivators, with varying understandings, leading to differences in interpretation.

Mo Hua can only patiently record them one by one, carefully compare, and then integrate his understanding to slowly study and comprehend.

This process is quite long and tiring.

Fortunately, Mo Hua is a Formation Master, usually studying, watching, and practicing formation patterns, which are even more complex and obscure than these texts.

Hence, researching these ancient texts, for Mo Hua, actually has its own charm.

Thus, Mo Hua calms down, slowly studying, slowly understanding, after about half a month, finally gaining initial insight, stumblingly deciphering the first line of Ancient Wilderness Text on the Bone Scroll.

Mo Hua only glanced at it, his pupils suddenly contracted.

At this moment, he finally realized what kind of ancient formation he had been seeking for long.

The Evil God Bone Scroll, recorded in Ancient Wilderness Text, documented an extremely ferocious formation:

"Second Grade Twenty-four Patterns, Ancient Wild Extinct Formation..."

"Twelve Scripture Taotie Spirit Corpse Formation!"
