Immortality Through Array Formations

Chapter 1199: Chapter 712 Junior Brother

Elder Master Xun opened the letter once again to glance over it, fell into deep thought for a moment, took out a Jade Slip, his Divine Thought moved, and he wrote a message. Then he summoned a little Taoist Child.

“Deliver this Jade Slip to the Taoist Court’s Elder Liang, the Court Leader, and have him find someone to look into it,”

“Yes, Ancestor.”

The Taoist Child received the Jade Slip with both hands and respectfully withdrew.

In less than a day, a Jade Slip was sent back. The Taoist Child respectfully offered it to Elder Master Xun.

Elder Master Xun took a glance at the Jade Slip and knowing that it was the handwriting of Elder Liang, who had already retired from the Taoist Court, he let his Divine Sense sink into it.

Just one look, and Elder Master Xun’s heart trembled.

Fire Buddha?!

The Great Demon Cultivator who had rampaged through the Second Grade State Boundary for a hundred years, at the Peak of Foundation Establishment, practicing the Meteor Fire Forbidden Art, annihilating the whole Xie family, commanding numerous Demon Cultivators, and killing people like cutting grass?!

Elder Master Xun took in a cold breath.

No wonder the reward was eight thousand Merit Points!

Mo Hua, this kid, by capturing Fire Buddha for the Taoist Court with his Drawing Formation, had performed a great merit, and it was reported by the Supervisor Gu Changhuai of the Taoist Court.

That’s why the Taoist Court made an exception and allocated these eight thousand Merit Points.

Put this way, these eight thousand Merit Points… aren’t considered much…

But…

To capture Fire Buddha?

Elder Master Xun frowned.

The soft and clever appearance of Mo Hua flashed in his mind.

Elder Master Xun couldn’t understand how a Disciple with such a low cultivation level, as frail as Mo Hua, managed to capture a Demon Head at the Peak of Foundation Establishment with a filled record of evil deeds?

With the help of formations?

Even if his formations are good, it’s still too dangerous.

Elder Master Xun was both scared afterwards and angry.

This kid Mo Hua is too bold.

Dealing with such brutal and cruel Demon Cultivators, if one is not careful, they are likely to die without a trace left.

Really, daring to get involved in anything.

And…

Elder Master Xun continued to read onward, his gaze became more focused, “Fire Buddha… was killed…”

It was written above that it was all credited to Gu Changhuai alone.

But at that time, Mo Hua was also there.

Without any need to guess, one would know that there must have been something fishy.

Elder Master Xun sighed.

Who would have thought…

Having lived for so many years, encountered so many events, seen so many people, and now in his old age, to be fooled by a little kid.

Elder Master Xun pondered for a moment, then ordered someone to check the Merit Pavilion for Mo Hua’s records to see what kinds of tasks he usually did.

He originally thought that with Mo Hua’s ability, he could at most draw formations, and could only draw formations.

So he didn’t think to delve deeper.

Now it seems, things might not be as they appeared at all…

The records from the Merit Pavilion were quickly brought over.

Elder Master Xun looked at them and felt his scalp go numb.

Apart from a large number of First and Second Grade Array tasks, the majority of the rest were rewards for capturing, pursuing, encircling, and hunting Sin Cultivators, Evil Cultivators, and even Demon Cultivators.

And the success rate was outrageously high, nearly never failing.

The Disciples teamed up with him varied.

But the most frequent were the little girl from the Murong family, and that lad from the Tai’a Sect of the Ouyang Family. A large portion of the others, amazingly, were senior brothers and sisters one generation above him.

These senior brothers and sisters had much higher cultivation levels than him, each of them a Heavenly Pride from prestigious families. They met by chance and were actually willing to bring him along?

Elder Master Xun found it hard to believe.

Was this kid Mo Hua really that good at socializing?

This information was not only entirely different from what he had previously imagined, it was not even remotely the same…

Elder Master Xun could not help but sigh.

His Heavenly Secret Calculation really was not effective. Having exhausted his thoughts and studied it for hundreds of years, after all the calculations, it turned out there was such a “blind spot” right beside him, which he failed to perceive at all.

Elder Master Xun reviewed the contents of the Jade Slip again, becoming increasingly angry.

Absolutely reckless!

Such a talented formation genius, not knowing how to cherish it, gallivanting outside the Sect almost daily, undertaking extremely dangerous bounties.

It’s a good thing he’s safe and sound.

But if there was the slightest mishap, with so many Sin Cultivators and Evil Cultivators around, his frail arms and legs could not withstand anyone’s killing blow.

If an accident had occurred, wouldn’t a promising Array seedling be wasted?

Upon this thought, Elder Master Xun regretted deeply, the more he thought, the more frightened he became, and then with a stern face, he instructed the Taoist Child:

“Go summon Mo Hua!”

The Taoist Child replied respectfully, “Yes.”

After leaving the Elder’s Residence, the Taoist Child went to find Mo Hua.

Mo Hua was in class and was somewhat surprised upon hearing the news. Elder Master Xun rarely called for him during class time.

The Taoist Child whispered, “Be careful, the Elder Master seems very angry.”

Mo Hua, often visiting the Elder’s Residence, was quite familiar with this Taoist Child.

Mo Hua was startled, “Angry at whom?”

The Taoist Child shook his head, “How would I know…”

Mo Hua murmured to himself.

Why does Elder Master Xun’s anger have anything to do with me?

I’ve been quite well-behaved recently, drawing formations in the Sect every day.

Upon arriving at the Elder’s Residence and entering Elder Master Xun’s room, Mo Hua indeed felt the atmosphere was off. Elder Master Xun had a solemn expression, looking very stern.

Mo Hua lowered his eyebrows and eyes, with an innocent face, looking very obedient.

Just as Elder Master Xun was about to reprimand, upon seeing Mo Hua’s appearance, his heart softened by several degrees.

Although the things he did were dangerous…

But capturing Heretical Demons is the duty of Cultivators, a good deed in the service of justice. He shouldn’t be too reproachful, lest it harm the child’s upright nature and will to fight evil and uphold the Dao.

However, risking one’s life like this should not be encouraged.

He is still young, like a blank slate; how could he know of the maliciousness in people’s hearts, the dangers of the Cultivation World?

He must be sternly admonished, to teach him a lesson and make sure he does not dare to undertake such dangerous tasks again!
