Immortality Through Array Formations

Chapter 1760: Chapter 888: Confluence_2

And the Spiritual Root is poor, it cannot be changed.

His cultivation progress remains not too optimistic, not only has his cultivation increased little, but he’s also far from touching the bottleneck of Foundation Establishment Late Stage...

Mo Hua’s heart was completely chilled.

But since the problem has occurred, it is a fact that must be faced. There is no point in deceiving oneself.

Mo Hua thought for a while and went to find Elder Master Xun.

In the Elder’s Residence, Elder Master Xun was chatting with the Taixu Sect Master. Seeing Mo Hua, he was a bit surprised.

Mo Hua then tactfully explained the concern that his focus on studying Formations for the upcoming Array Discussion Conference had delayed his cultivation progress, possibly preventing him from breaking through to Foundation Establishment Late Stage by the end of the year, to Elder Master Xun.

Elder Master Xun paused for a moment and said: ”No worries, do your best, whatever you achieve is what it is, don’t overthink the rest.”

He didn’t say it explicitly, but Mo Hua understood.

The meaning was that you should strive to cultivate. Even if you can’t break through to Foundation Establishment Late Stage, you won’t be held back a year.

Mo Hua breathed a sigh of relief and then silently looked at the Taixu Sect Master nearby.

The Sect Master hesitated for a moment, glanced at Elder Master Xun, and also nodded, saying: ”Rest assured, I will vouch for you.”

Even if it breaks the rules, it doesn’t matter.

The Array Leader, deserves such a privilege.

Mo Hua was thoroughly relieved, thanked them politely, and then took his leave.

After Mo Hua left, the Taixu Sect Master appeared thoughtful.

Elder Master Xun asked him: ”What are you thinking?”

The Taixu Sect Master pondered and said:

”Ancestor, I suddenly have an idea...”

”If Mo Hua, this child, remains in the Foundation Building Middle Stage, unable to break through, unable to graduate his whole life, wouldn’t that mean... he can keep attending the Array Discussion Conference forever?”

”As long as Mo Hua is around, whether it’s the Four Great Sects, the other Eight Great Gates, or the Twelve Streams, they can only look at his face and compete for the second place?”

”In this way, wouldn’t our Taixu Gate be able to always take first place in the Array Competition, winning the Array Leader until we are numb to it?”

Elder Master Xun snapped: ”What nonsense is this!”

Yet, after he said this, he was stunned for a moment and pondered deeply, only to find...

It seems feasible...

As long as Mo Hua is there, he is number one.

And he is only in the Foundation Building Middle Stage, as long as he does not reach Foundation Establishment Late Stage, he does not have to graduate.

In this way, always taking first place in the Array Competition, wouldn’t the Taixu Gate be able to monopolize the Array Leader?

This temptation is so great that Elder Master Xun’s heart momentarily succumbed to greed, thinking if Mo Hua remained ”held back” forever, it would not be so bad...

Then Elder Master Xun immediately shook his head, suppressing the greed in his heart, and hurriedly said:

”No, no, in this way, it would actually harm this child, absolutely not...”

The Taixu Sect Master also knew this was bad, so they were just saying it casually.

Moreover, if he actually did this, the Four Great Sects would undoubtedly be pushed to the edge and might employ underhanded moves.

Other sects would curse Taixu Gate for being shameless.

Elder Master Xun said: ”Let’s not mention this again, we should make the child focus on cultivation, enhance his cultivation, and learn higher-rank Formations. Even if he doesn’t reach Foundation Establishment Late Stage, he can’t be held back, otherwise, what would become of the Array Leader...”

”Yes.” The Taixu Sect Master said.

After discussing Mo Hua’s matter, they continued their serious conversation.

”About that matter...” Elder Master Xun’s gaze became slightly focused, ”Have you prepared everything?”

The Taixu Sect Master restrained his expression and said solemnly: ”I’ve started liaising, revealed a bit of intention to them, but...”

The Taixu Sect Master frowned, ”...the other side is very resistant.”

”Just resistant?”

”Not only...” The Taixu Sect Master said helplessly, ”They feel that Taixu Gate is taking advantage of their misfortune, mocking them.”

”Hmm.” Elder Master Xun was not surprised.

This is quite common, if positions were switched, the Taixu Gate would think the same.

The Taixu Sect Master frowned and said: ”It seems quite hopeless, with heavy resistance, Ancestor, should we persist?”

”Of course.” Elder Master Xun nodded and said, ”This is not a matter of one family, and when planning and doing things, don’t pay too much attention to what others say, but look at their specific circumstances, gains and losses, life and death, and interests.”

”The words spoken are often not true.”

”Most of the opinions you hear may be like duckweed on water, far from the actual reality.”

The Taixu Sect Master suddenly realized, nodded and said: ”Yes.”

”You now just release some hints, let their Ancestors catch wind of it, have some psychological preparation, but the true decision-making still lies in their Ancestors’ hands.” Elder Master Xun said.

The Taixu Sect Master felt slightly relieved upon hearing this and cupped his hands, saying:

”I will follow the Ancestor’s words.”

...

All the plans are being pushed forward methodically.

Several days later, at Rushing Void Sect.

In the cave residence on the back mountain.

Ancient pine screens, hiding cause and effect, the surroundings silent and uninhabited.

Linghu Ancestor of Rushing Void Sect, sat alone in the cave residence.

In front of him, there was an ancient stone table with three teacups on it, the tea’s steam lingering in the air.

The table was old, the teacups were old, and the custom was old as well.

This was an ancient tea meeting that had been held for a long time, but it hadn’t been hosted for a long time as well.

At this time, Linghu Ancestor was both drinking tea and quietly waiting.

After a while, in a void, the space suddenly cracked, and Sword Qi overflowed.

An elderly man with a tall Divine Body and slightly dark face emerged, stepping as if wind, straight to the table, lifting a teacup to drink.

This person wore the highest-ranking Taoist Robe of Tai’a Sect, the behind-the-scenes Elder Ouyang of Tai’a Sect.

Elder Ouyang sat down and drank tea without speaking.

Because both people present knew the person hosting had not yet arrived.

After another thirty minutes, the void crack opened once more, stable and calm, with faint traces.
