Immortality Through Array Formations

Chapter 2304: Chapter 1060: Monster

”You refuse to draw?” Mr. Tu’s gaze was cold.

Mo Hua resolutely replied, ”I won’t draw.”

”Why?”

Mo Hua responded with righteousness, ”I am the head disciple of the Eight Great Gates, a disciple of Taixu Gate, and the leader of the Qianxue Formation Path, a righteous cultivator. How could I collude with you to draw such sinister formations?”

Mr. Tu said, ”Don’t worry, I won’t have you draw an evil formation.”

Mo Hua sneered, ”Isn’t the Blood Sacrifice Array an evil formation?”

”You don’t have to worry about that. Anyway, the formation I want you to draw doesn’t involve human bones, human skin, human blood, or Blood Ink... It doesn’t even contain Evil Formation Patterns. It’s a legitimate Five Elements Eight Trigrams Formation... What do you think?” Mr. Tu asked patiently.

Mo Hua pondered for a moment but still shook his head, ”I’ve said it before, I’m a righteous cultivator and cannot collude with you to help draw formations.”

Mr. Tu watched Mo Hua’s obstinate expression, his gaze slightly strained. After pacing twice in front of the prison gate, he asked Mo Hua in a deep tone:

”Have you studied large formations?”

”I...” Mo Hua hesitated, then scoffed, ”Of course I have.”

Mr. Tu’s gaze was cold, containing a penetrating sharpness, naturally seeing through Mo Hua’s ”guilty conscience” and sneered:

”Did you really study it?”

Mo Hua was rendered speechless.

Mr. Tu asked enticingly, ”Do you want to learn it?”

Mo Hua pressed his lips tightly, his expression wavering.

Mr. Tu spoke softly, ”This could be the first opportunity in your life to personally participate in the construction of a large formation. Such an opportunity is rare, nearly impossible to seek. Even if you stayed at Taixu Gate studying formations your entire life, you might never encounter it again.”

The large formation project was vast, involving a great amount of manpower and resources.

Unless facing an earth-shattering threat to resist formidable enemies.

Or if new sects or aristocratic families rise, to establish a mountain gate and build a Protective Sect Array.

Otherwise, large formations would never be initiated.

Although Qian Learning State Boundary is a Fifth Grade State and powerful and wealthy, it has long been peaceful with sect and aristocratic family levels solidified for thousands of years, never having a large formation constructed.

Even if a force wished to build a formation, with so many sects, schools of formation masters, and deep-seated discrimination in Qian Learning State Boundary, it’s unlikely they would invite Mo Hua, a Taixu Gate disciple, to participate.

Mo Hua knows these situations clearly in his heart, showing a visibly conflicted expression.

This conflict is seen by Mr. Tu.

Mr. Tu did not compel Mo Hua but sighed slightly, his hoarse voice filled with regret:

”I saw you have talent, wanting to give you this opportunity to advance further, but since you don’t know how to cherish it, let’s leave it at that...”

After saying that, Mr. Tu turned and left.

Seeing Mr. Tu about to leave, Mo Hua obviously became anxious and hurriedly said, ”Tu... Mr. Tu...”

Mr. Tu turned his head, looking indifferently at Mo Hua.

Mo Hua gritted his teeth and asked, ”Desolate Heaven Blood Sacrifice Formation... Is it an Evil Path Great Formation...”

Mr. Tu replied, ”Since you are the Formation Leader, with remarkable talent, you should understand that righteousness and evil are merely appearances of formations; the intrinsic formation principle is the same.”

”A righteous formation could become an evil formation if learned by someone with an incorrect Heart Skill.”

”Yet if a Formation Master has a firm Taoist Heart and embodies righteous thoughts, even when looking at an evil formation, they can comprehend the essence of formations.”

”Truly gifted and perceptive individuals see righteousness as righteousness and evil as evil; righteousness and evil are just facets of Dao, unable to affect their Taoist Heart.”

Mr. Tu’s words, half true and half false, subtly praised, making Mo Hua feel like he was exactly the kind of person Mr. Tu described, with extraordinary talent, a steadfast Taoist Heart capable of perceiving worldly appearances with righteousness and evil unchanged at heart.

Mo Hua’s face displayed confidence, as if he himself believed he was the kind of world-class talent Mr. Tu spoke of.

”Fine, I’ll help you draw the large formation!” Mo Hua declared.

Mr. Tu nodded slightly.

The world, the more talented, the more likely they consider themselves exceptional.

The more talented, the more susceptible to temptation.

Moreover, this was a large formation; anyone pursuing formations as a Formation Master wouldn’t be able to resist the allure of a large formation.

Supposedly talented Formation Masters, even less capable.

”Follow me,” Mr. Tu said indifferently.

The dungeon was unlocked, and Mo Hua followed behind Mr. Tu, walking out of the Great Wilderness Prison, through complex and eerie tunnels, toward the underground of the Evil God Temple’s other side, reaching the deepest point, arriving at a supremely magnificent foundation.

Blood flowed like rivers beneath, splashing into clusters of blood flowers.

Yin energy pierced to the bones, blood qi assaulted the nostrils.

Three massive cliffs stood together.

On the cliff, dense floating ladders hung, on which numerous Evil Formation Masters clad in blood robes held Bone Pens dipped in Blood Ink, drawing evil formations.

This was an extremely grand scene of Evil Path Great Formation construction.

Even surpassing the scene when Mo Hua initially led the Five Elements Slaughter Demon Great Formation.

Mr. Tu led Mo Hua to a cliff.

This cliff was different from the other two; evil formations bordered its edges, yet the central part was mostly empty.

The White Bone used as formation media had been removed, replaced with normal Jade Formation Medium.

Blood Ink had also been replaced with regular Five Elements Spiritual Ink.

As a former First Grade Large Formation Master, Mo Hua glanced and instantly understood the situation.

Mr. Tu’s Blood Sacrifice Array was at a standstill.

It possibly resulted from Heaven Void Ancestor’s scheming, suppression from various forces in Qianxue, Court Official’s encirclement, and a shortage of Evil Formation Masters... and various reasons, causing the Blood Sacrifice Array’s progress to be severely obstructed.

Thus, Mr. Tu had to conceive another plan, adopting a different approach.

Mr. Tu’s approach was to further downgrade the array while incorporating both its patterns and both righteous and evil applications.
