Immortality Through Array Formations

Chapter 1799: Chapter 899: Taoist State (2)

Is this Evil Evil just ”strong on the outside but weak on the inside”? He surely knows it well in his heart.

However, while walking the path of cultivation, one must maintain face. Mo Hua offered him this step, and he gratefully accepted it.

Mr. Mei cupped his hands, saying: ”Not at all, Young Master Mo is being courteous. It’s the Young Lord who is truly impressive...”

The two exchanged formal pleasantries, lifting each other’s spirits.

Mo Hua then remembered something, and said to Wenren Wan:

”Aunt Wan, the Evil Evil is gone now, and Uncle Gu’s injury to his divine thought is not too serious. However, his Blood Qi and Spiritual Power are depleted, especially his meridians where the Spiritual Power is obstructed. He needs timely recuperation.”

Wenren Wan nodded, ”I understand.” Then she sighed with relief and said: ”It’s all thanks to you...”

Mo Hua smiled slightly.

Afterwards, it was no longer his concern, as several Danshi Elders from the Gu family were there to heal and tend to Uncle Gu.

Mo Hua glanced at Yu Er to ensure she was sleeping soundly, and then he left the room, went into the courtyard, found a stone table, and sat down to drink tea.

The Gu family’s elders specially sent over some delicate and delicious snacks to accompany Mo Hua’s tea.

Mo Hua did not stand on ceremony, thanked them, and accepted the offerings.

After drinking tea for a while, Mr. Mei and a few others came over, formally greeted Mo Hua, and then each took their seats.

They had been busy for quite some time, and now was just the time to take a break.

Naturally, the group began to discuss some matters on the Divine Thought path.

Because he has ”friends” among the deities, Mo Hua’s understanding of Divine Dao Knowledge is much deeper than that of the average cultivator.

And Mr. Mei and the others, although they have cognitive obstacles regarding the existence of ”deities,” have done considerable research into Divine Thought schools, hidden inheritances, and related taboos among cultivators.

They drank tea and chatted.

Mr. Mei and the others were amazed by Mo Hua’s vision and insight.

Mo Hua also learned many ”fancy” things, like the copper coin sword, Eight Trigrams charm, Spirit Tool Heart Protecting Mirror, calming incense, repelling evil robe, etc...

For average cultivators, these things are indeed useful.

To a certain extent, they can use these external objects to help cultivators dispel evil and protect themselves.

It’s just that Mo Hua’s situation is relatively special, so he doesn’t really need them.

However...

Even if he doesn’t need them himself, if in the future the Taixu Gate faces a formidable Evil Demon, and needs to create some inheritance capable of ”dispelling evil and cutting down misfortune,” these things can certainly be referenced.

Mo Hua quietly noted this matter in his heart.

Indeed, you live and learn; among three people, there must be one who can teach me.

Mo Hua felt he had learned something new again.

Mr. Mei and the others, seeing that Mo Hua was talented and kind, also felt very happy.

Everyone had a pleasant conversation, then after about an hour, Mr. Mei stood up to take his leave, ”Now that the matter here is settled, we won’t disturb you any longer, my young friend. On another day when you have time, we can discuss the learnings on the Divine Dao further.”

Mo Hua readily said: ”Certainly.”

After Mr. Mei left, Mo Hua drank tea for a while longer, wanting to see if Uncle Gu would wake up.

But after waiting for a little while, a woman wearing a Taoist Court robe walked in.

Mo Hua was taken aback, ”Sister Xia?”

Xia Canonical Official was also a bit surprised to see Mo Hua, but she still looked anxious and asked: ”Mo Hua, how is Gu Changhuai...”

Mo Hua said: ”Sister Xia, rest assured, there’s no more mortal danger. The elders of the Gu family are nursing Uncle Gu back to health.”

Xia Canonical Official finally breathed a sigh of relief, her eyes flickering.

Mo Hua, observant of her expression, asked secretly: ”Sister Xia, are you that worried about Uncle Gu?”

Xia Canonical Official stiffened, her face tense, and said: ”We are both Supervisors, performing tasks together, and since he’s seriously injured, I should naturally come to see him as a colleague’s duty.”

”Oh, a colleague...” Mo Hua said meaningfully.

Xia Canonical Official, for some reason, felt very uneasy under Mo Hua’s gaze, so she left a bottle of pills and said: ”These are the Xia family’s Great Cultivating Origin Pills. Please pass them on to Gu Changhuai for me. I have official business to attend to and must return first.”

Just as Xia Canonical Official turned to leave.

Mo Hua quickly called out: ”Sister Xia, wait a moment, I have something else.”

Xia Canonical Official turned back to look at Mo Hua, ”Really?”

Mo Hua nodded, ”Really.”

Xia Canonical Official hesitated slightly.

Mo Hua then said, ”It’s unrelated to Uncle Gu, it’s serious business.”

This finally put Xia Canonical Official at ease, and she sat beside Mo Hua, saying: ”Go ahead, what’s the matter.”

Mo Hua looked around, then whispered: ”Sister Xia, has my place of birth had its access restricted by the Taoist Court?”

Xia Canonical Official was somewhat surprised, ”How did you know?”

”I heard about it,” Mo Hua replied.

”From Gu Changhuai?” Xia Canonical Official raised an eyebrow.

Mo Hua smiled without saying a word.

Xia Canonical Official thought for a moment, then nodded, ”It was ordered by my uncle.”

Mo Hua was startled, ”Master Xia?”

Xia Canonical Official nodded.

”Why?”

”I’m not sure... maybe he was advised by someone, or perhaps he simply wanted to show goodwill to you as the Array Leader?”

Mo Hua was puzzled, ”Do I have such face?”

Xia Canonical Official sighed, ”You’re the Array Leader, and only at the Foundation Building Middle Stage. If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn’t have believed it either.”

”Of course, my uncle might also be acting according to the usual practice. In various regions of Nine State, whenever some extraordinarily talented genius appears, the Taoist Court’s rules dictate that their birthplace must be immediately sealed.”

”Firstly, it’s to protect these talented disciples, preventing them from being targeted by some heretical demons...”

”In the past, there have been many cases where heretical demons threatened genius cultivators by using their parents and relatives, forcing these talented disciples to fall from grace and join the Demon Sect.”

”Secondly, the Taoist Court also competes with families for talent. Therefore, the birthplace certainly needs to be sealed, and the fewer people who know, the better.”
