Immortality Through Array Formations

Chapter 1190: Chapter 709: Myriad Evils

Taixu Gate senses an impending mountain storm, the small fishing village devoutly offers its worship, little silver fish sneakily nibble on the incense offerings.

All of this, Mo Hua is yet oblivious,

Having taken care of the River God’s matters, there can be peace for a short while.

So within the Sect, he joyfully practices Cultivation, attends classes, draws Formation Paintings, eagerly awaiting his “takeout.”

And six days later, the “takeout” he secretly ordered after seizing the authority of the Evil God, is about to arrive.

This, no, this “wave” of takeout is likely to “arrive” in Yu Er’s dreams at 1 a.m tonight.

This timing was specifically chosen by Mo Hua.

Safe, hidden, unobtrusive, and with the Taoist Stele providing a safeguard, Mo Hua feels much more confident.

But before that, Mo Hua still needs to make some preparations.

These preparations are mainly for Yu Er’s sake.

This time, the ordered Demon Monsters and Evil Spirits are numerous.

Mo Hua himself is indifferent; both the River God and the Evil God perished by his hand, he even struck them down with thunder and “devoured” them raw, let alone these lower-ranking Demon Monsters.

But Yu Er is different, after all, he’s just a child, without any means of Divine Thought Slaughter or Divine Thought protection.

If something goes wrong, it’s no big deal if his Divine Thought gets a little hurt, but if Evil Demons run rampant and harm Yu Er, then he would feel guilty.

Therefore, it’s necessary to prepare thoroughly in advance.

Furthermore, Mo Hua has drawn several Divine Tao Arrays to suppress the Evil Spirits and protect Yu Er.

Dusk falls, 1 a.m. draws near.

Mo Hua arrives at Yu Er’s room, setting up the Divine Formation around the edges of the bed, encircling Yu Er within it.

Yu Er’s big, bright eyes are full of curiosity as she points to the Formation and asks:

“Brother Mo, what is this?”

Mo Hua pats Yu Er’s little head and says, “This is for warding off evil; it will keep you from having nightmares.”

Yu Er smiles sweetly, saying, “Thank you, brother.”

Unable to help it, Mo Hua reveals a slight smile and gently advises, “Rest early, you need to get up for Cultivation tomorrow.”

“Okay!”

Yu Er eagerly nods her little head.

Having calmed Yu Er, Mo Hua then finds Wenren Wei and speaks in a hushed tone, “Uncle Wenren, there may be danger tonight…”

Wenren Wei’s expression becomes grave.

Mo Hua speaks seriously, “Tonight, I keep feeling somewhat… restless, as if an external evil is about to intrude. After 1 a.m., Yu Er might suffer from nightmares…”

Wenren Wei, who does not practice Divine Thought, might not see the myriad forms of Demon Monsters, but having spent much time with Mo Hua, having witnessed Mo Hua staying up nights for Yu Er, having felt the sinister aura within the house, he has some vague notion of the “external evil” Mo Hua speaks of.

The Cultivation World is vast and infinite.

There is so much knowledge in Tao Cultivation, and countless secrets unknown.

Even as a Golden Core Practitioner, one does not dare claim thorough knowledge of the myriad paths of Cultivation.

There are always some forbidden realms seldom tread by Cultivators.

And those who do tread these forbidden realms, regardless of their Spiritual Root origins, are all beings of extraordinary abilities.

In Wenren Wei’s heart, despite his young age and modest Cultivation, Young Master Mo is such an “extraordinary individual”…

Wenren Wei looks solemn and somewhat puzzled, furrowing his brows, “Young Master Yu Er… he hasn’t been troubled by nightmares for a while now, why would there suddenly be ‘external evil’ invading tonight?”

It’s because of me…

These words, Mo Hua finds somewhat difficult to utter…

Mo Hua blinks, sighs, and says, “When it comes to external evil, their ways are odd and tricksy, who can truly know… ”

Wenren Wei nods upon hearing this, feeling that it makes sense, then shows a trace of worry, requesting, “Then, Young Master Mo…”

Mo Hua immediately reassures with a pat on his chest,

“Don’t worry, leave it all to me!”

These Demon Monsters, if they dare come, are like sheep to the tiger’s maw, not a single one will escape.

Mo Hua then says, “Still, there are some things I need to talk to you about in advance…”

Mo Hua spoke of some “taboos” and emergency methods to Wenren Wei.

Like what to do if his own evil aura becomes too strong, if his Heart Skill turns wicked, if he goes mad, becomes dull, or is retaliated against by Evil Demons…

It’s Wenren Wei’s first time hearing all this.

Although not fully understanding the intricacies, he senses that this seems to be a complex and profound legacy, and his respect for Mo Hua deepens…

Afterward, Yu Er falls asleep as usual.

Young and of a simple mind, unaware of these matters, knowing only that being by Mo Hua’s side feels secure, he quickly falls into a deep sleep.

Mo Hua sits by Yu Er’s side, meditating in deep contemplation.

Wenren Wei stands guard outside, alert and watchful, ready for changes within.

As time slips by moment by moment, it gradually elapses.

After an unknown duration, 1 a.m. arrives.

In just an instant, a chill deepens within the room, and an oppressive, sinister feeling settles in the heart.

Wenren Wei’s complexion changes as he scans in all directions, but sees nothing at all.

Yet, he can distinctly feel something slowly festering around the room.

As if myriad invisible, unknowable sinister entities are crawling out from the Void…

This time, the sensation is far more intense than before.

As if the Evil Spirits invading Young Master Yu Er’s nightmare are far more numerous and formidable…

Wenren Wei takes a quiet breath of cold air.

He wishes to check inside but recalls Mo Hua’s admonition, “Unless it’s unexpected, do not enter, to prevent contamination by Evil Spirits…” thus refrains, standing firm outside like a mountain.

However, Wenren Wei can’t help but feel some anxiety.

Meanwhile, inside the room, Mo Hua, who has been deep in meditation, also opens his eyes.

His gaze is profound, his pupils clearly demarcated, mysterious and containing both Kun and Qian within.
