Immortality Through Array Formations

Chapter 1596: Chapter 839: Adulterous Couple (Part 3)

And these special identity ”honored guests,” relying on the tokens in their hands, walked to their respective hidden chambers, opened the doors, entered, and never came out again.

What happens next, Mo Hua could not know.

The group kept moving forward, people continued to enter rooms, leaving fewer and fewer behind.

Mo Hua, taking advantage of passing around a corner, naturally made a turn, followed by a concealment, and disappeared without a trace.

After concealing himself, Mo Hua found a secluded corner in the cabin, quietly hiding, then started pondering on what to do next...

This large boat was completely different from what he had imagined before.

All the secrets were segregated and sealed in separate chambers, leaving him somewhat helpless.

Even if he wanted to investigate, he didn’t know from which room to start.

If he checked the wrong one and exposed himself, got discovered, he’d find himself floating on the Mistwater River, with no village ahead or inn behind, likely facing doom.

Of course, the most important thing was, how could he pry open these chambers?

Mo Hua chose a nearby chamber, with eyes glancing around, inferred multiple times using Heavenly secret Calculation, roughly understanding, silently let out a sigh of relief.

”Luckily, it’s just a second-grade array...”

This boat was used to host Foundation Establishment Realm sect disciples, only active within the second-grade state boundary, so the second-grade array was sufficient.

Although it was a second-grade array, it was uniformly made up of second-grade high-level arrays, clearly a considerable amount of work was put in.

The types of formations were also numerous, encompassing the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams, reinforcement, soundproofing, exposure shadow, and isolation formations preventing wall penetration, diverse and varied.

Mo Hua had a very solid foundation in second-grade formations, with extensive knowledge, capable of unraveling these chamber formations, but it would take time.

Moreover, with the hallway bustling with people, any action would surely get him discovered.

No opportunity for him to calmly crack the chamber formations.

”Is there any other way?”

While Mo Hua was deep in thought, the sound of footsteps suddenly arose nearby, someone was approaching.

He immediately restrained his thoughts, held his breath, concealed his form and hid.

On this large flower boat, many places had exposure shadow formations set up, but not all areas could have them.

An ordinary cultivator skilled in concealment might not be able to recognize the location of exposure shadow formations.

But Mo Hua, being both a hidden cultivator and a skilled Formation Master, could identify exposure shadow formations at a glance, thus finding a safe spot where he wouldn’t break concealment was not difficult.

Just like that, Mo Hua hid quietly.

In a short while, someone walked past.

It was a woman, wearing a pink gauzy robe, her figure graceful, a faint floral fragrance wafting through wherever she went.

She did not spot Mo Hua and walked straight past him.

Mo Hua initially paid no mind, but out of the corner of his eye, he glimpsed the woman’s face and suddenly felt a bit stunned.

Unrecognizable, yet somewhat familiar...

Why?

Mo Hua was puzzled.

He carefully recalled, and then suddenly remembered.

Hundred Flower Valley!

This woman in pink clothes was a disciple of Hundred Flower Valley.

Earlier, through Hao Xuan, he first contacted Wang Chen, hoping to board the Rouge Boat via a tavern in Gui Water City, but ended in failure.

On the way back, he saw a carriage from Hundred Flower Valley departing from Gui Water City, found it unusual, and followed it all the way to Hundred Flower Valley.

A few attractive female disciples got off the carriage and entered Hundred Flower Valley; among them was the pink-clad woman who just walked past.

”Hundred Flower Valley...”

Mo Hua’s mind was stirred, and he immediately sneaked quietly after.

This woman walked lightly, moving adeptly through the chambers, obviously very familiar with the flower boat.

After about thirty minutes, she stopped in front of a chamber and knocked on the door.

After a moment, the door opened, revealing a woman’s face, with exquisite features, but heavily made-up.

This woman was... Hua Ruyu!

Mo Hua subtly startled inside.

She was actually on the boat too!

Hua Ruyu looked around, seeing no one else, she softly reproached: ”Why are you just getting here?”

”I...”

The pink-clad woman hadn’t yet spoken, Hua Ruyu shook her head, ”Come inside and talk.”

”Okay.”

The pink-clad woman nodded and entered Hua Ruyu’s room.

Then Hua Ruyu closed the door.

Mo Hua frowned.

”Can’t hear anything...”

Hua Ruyu on the Rouge Boat certainly has some shady dealings, and there must also be secrets between her and the pink-clad woman from Hundred Flower Valley.

But with the door closed, he wouldn’t be able to hear any of it...

”Need to think of a way...”

The chamber was adjacent to the corridor, the door tightly shut, the walls couldn’t be breached.

Then... try from the outside?

Mo Hua remembered that outside the boat, where it approached the water, there should be doors and windows.

He nodded, memorized the chamber’s location, then searched for a way nearby, finally at the corridor’s end, around a corner, found a ventilated window.

Mo Hua crawled out the window, then adhered to the flower boat’s wooden beam, heading toward the room where Hua Ruyu was.

Outside the room, sure enough, there was a window facing the water.

But this window was shut tight, unable to see inside or hear the slightest sound.

”Must break the array on the window.”

But generally speaking, the arrays outside the Spirit Boat are more stringent than those inside.

The difficulty of breaking the array from outside is much higher than from inside.

Mo Hua was a bit apprehensive, observed the array on the door and window, suddenly surprised to find, the array set up was actually the Divine Mist Array.

Moreover, under the Divine Mist Array, there was a Divine Lock Array, and within the Divine Lock Array, there was a faint aura of evil spirit, as if some demon monsters were sealed inside.
