Immortality Through Array Formations

Chapter 1340: Chapter 756: Compound Formation of the Divine Way (Thanks to Alliance Hierarch Xiaobaibai’s Radish~)_2

The Divine Tao Array of the small fishing village is like a ”gate.”

Once closed, it can conceal certain causes and energies.

When placed over one’s forehead, it can also isolate some evil qi and demon wraiths.

Meanwhile, the Divine Tao Array in the dense forest is like a mass of ”fog.”

Through divine thought formation patterns, it weaves a mist of divine thought, faint and obscure, making it impossible for one’s divine sense to discern the details beneath the mist.

But what exactly are the names of these two types of formations?

Mo Hua has no clue at all.

After all, these formations themselves are but incomplete ”half-learned” legacies, all obtained by ”fleecing,” naturally without any heads or tails.

”I don’t know the names of the formations...”

Mo Hua shook his head and continued his research.

He needs to calculate and compare each of the eighteen peculiar divine formation patterns transcribed from the dense forest, and then deduce the common patterns to uncover their mysteries.

In the elegantly simple Disciple’s Residence, the light was bright.

Mo Hua sat upright, his expression focused, his eyes bright and sparkling under the light.

His divine sense was being steadily consumed, and his calculations were advancing step by step.

The formation patterns under his pen were being gathered stroke by stroke.

By 1 p.m., Mo Hua extinguished the light, lay on the bed, and let his divine sense dive into his Sea of Consciousness, continuing the calculations on the Taoist Stele.

The calculations on the Taoist Stele progressed several times faster.

Soon, Mo Hua had some insights.

This is a relatively simple structured divine compound formation.

Somewhat similar to the Subsidiary Compass Re-formation Array, using a core mother formation to control multiple individual sub-formations, connecting them into a singular divine ”mist.”

The difference is that the individual ”sub-formations” in the Subsidiary Compass Re-formation Array are identical, duplicated from a single mold.

However, the ”divine compound formation” before him, all its ”sub-formations,” are the same formation but with structural variations.

It’s like a big tree, where each leaf has its own vein pattern.

The overall structure of this formation also resembles a ”Spiritual Pivot Formation.”

Each secondary sub-formation has a corresponding formation ”sequence” to distinguish the formation’s structure.

”In the dense forest, there are many such unknown divine formations, and each formation is similar but unique.”

”They have similar formation pivot structures but different sequence patterns...”

”The structure of the compound formation is simple, but involves a multitude of specific formation patterns, making it very complex...”

Mo Hua slowly exhaled.

He had roughly figured out the outlines of these divine formations.

But at this stage, he still couldn’t deduce a unified formation pivot structure, nor could he discover the patterns among these sequential formation patterns.

Of course, the deeper formation principles are even more elusive.

However, it’s only the first day, and he has only transcribed a dozen formation patterns.

The dense forest is still vast, with many more formation patterns to copy and research, and he believes he will eventually thoroughly understand and master these ”mist-like” divine formations in the forest.

Mo Hua nodded.

Then, after a short rest, he continued his inference on the Taoist Stele, wanting to familiarize himself more with these divine formation patterns and see if he had any oversights or could gain other inspirations...

...

At Taixu Gate, Elder’s Residence.

Xun Ziyou pondered deeply, then decided to report to the Ancestor first.

”Divine Tao Array?”

Elder Master Xun’s expression was calm, but his heart sank.

How could it be a Divine Tao Array...

Although that sect’s legacy is famous for heavenly secrets and formations.

Half positive and half weird, two calculations of heavenly secrets, Immortal Sky Formation Flow, myriad formations as one... but there had never been heard of any legacy of the Divine Tao Array remaining.

Even that kid surnamed Zhuang, who is extraordinarily talented with extraordinary formation skills, has never used any Divine Tao Array in his life.

The Divine Tao Array itself, like the Yin and Yang Dualities Formation, is an ancient array from a very long time ago.

Yin and Yang Dualities are difficult due to their obscurity, as the Great Dao is simple yet elusive in meaning.

The Divine Tao Array is difficult due to its complexity, being mysterious and unpredictable, and contains unknown dangers.

Both types of formations are nearly lost.

But the Yin and Yang Dualities still remain within the formation system.

The Divine Tao Array, however, is distinct.

To this day, ordinary cultivators and even some high-level formation masters are unlikely to have heard of the term ”Divine Tao Array.”

Where did this child Mo Hua... hear of it?

And judging by the situation, he seems quite familiar?

Elder Master Xun frowned, his thoughts raging temporarily:

Was it taught to him by someone else? Or did he figure it out on his own?

Or is it truly a special legacy left by his master?

After all, their sect is unfathomable with a legacy that is extremely ancient and profound, and every generation’s disciples are unbelievably talented geniuses.

Just because the boy named Zhuang doesn’t know, doesn’t mean the legacy doesn’t exist.

If there is...

Then it’s probably because he knew his end was near and left this particular legacy for Mo Hua before passing.

Elder Master Xun felt a pang of sentiment.

Knowing that his death tribulation was approaching, he still painstakingly left such a legacy, showing how much he valued Mo Hua...

With his aloof and rebellious nature, he had probably never worked so diligently for anyone in this lifetime...

Elder Master Xun felt somewhat melancholic for a moment.

These past events, Xun Ziyou didn’t know.

He saw the Ancestor’s changing expression and wasn’t unfamiliar with the term ”Divine Tao Array,” so he guessed that this Divine Tao Array was likely the Ancestor’s favoritism, privately passed on to Mo Hua.

But now he thinks about it, and it seems reasonable.

Without enough talent, even if passed on, it would be useless.

At least if the Ancestor passed this formation on to him, he certainly wouldn’t be able to learn it.

Since he can’t learn it, he can’t blame the Ancestor for being partial.
