Immortality Through Array Formations

Chapter 1831: Chapter 909: Unadorned Thunder Magnetism Battle

The Battle of Thunder Magnetism!

This is a clash between Formation Master experts!

Mo Hua’s expression was solemn, his fighting spirit gradually soaring, but after pondering for a moment, he realized a serious problem:

He didn’t know what to do in a Thunder Magnetism confrontation…

He had never formally learned Thunder Magnetism formations, nor had he ever faced off against another Thunder Magnetism Formation Master, lacking any relevant experience and not knowing how to counter the enemy or conduct attacks and defenses between Thunder Magnetism.

Mo Hua thought about reinserting the Thunder Magnetic Miniature into the bottom layer of the Original Magnet Compound Formation.

But on second thought, he hesitated.

Even if he put it back in, what good would it do?

The Thunder Magnetic Miniature could only eavesdrop on information and alter some magnetic patterns; it had no real offensive or defensive capabilities and would instead be targeted by enemy “Thunder Magnetism,” getting contaminated and resulting in more harm than good.

As for the opposing Thunder Magnetism Formation Master, whoever they were, wherever they were, what means they were using, what they aimed to achieve with these Thunder Magnetisms, and how they would target him, Mo Hua had no clue.

Some knowledge may not be hard to learn.

But if you don’t know it, you simply don’t know it, no matter how hard you rack your brains.

This is the “barrier” between different fields of Tao Cultivation knowledge.

Currently, between Mo Hua and this Thunder Magnetism expert, there was just such a “barrier.”

The opponent was clearly a seasoned Thunder Magnetism Formation Master, proficient in Thunder Magnetism formations, with comprehensive experience and insights into Thunder Magnetism inspection, selection, attacks, and defenses.

These were all things Mo Hua did not possess.

As long as he “maintained” the Demon Sect’s foundational Original Magnet formation, Mo Hua would likely not have any more opportunities to slip in again to eavesdrop on information or steal permissions in the future.

Even if he managed to sneak in, he would have to act like “a rat crossing the street,” treading on thin ice, and if not careful, once detected by him, the Thunder Magnetic Miniature could be in danger.

“The problem is quite serious…”

Mo Hua furrowed his brows.

He thought about it and realized this was beyond his capability to resolve.

When in doubt, one must ask.

And amongst the people he knew, there were more skilled experts.

So a few days later, he once again met with Elder Zheng at a teahouse in Tai Xu City to discuss formation knowledge over tea.

“Thunder Magnetism attack and defense?”

Listening to Mo Hua’s question, Elder Zheng was somewhat surprised as he sipped his tea.

“Yes,” Mo Hua nodded, “I was idle and pondered the principles of Original Magnet and Thunder Magnetism, and suddenly thought of this question…”

“Original Magnet is a surface application, Thunder Magnetism is a deep principle, using Thunder Magnetism, one can generate, transmit, and alter magnetic patterns. So if two Formation Masters are both proficient in Thunder Magnetism principles, does that mean they can both alter magnetic patterns in the same Original Magnet formation, contest permissions, and engage in attack and defense?”

Idle…

Elder Zheng couldn’t help but ask, “Don’t you have other formation studies?”

Mo Hua shook his head, “I’ve learned almost all the Second Grade, so I’m just looking for something I haven’t studied…”

Elder Zheng was stunned, then nodded helplessly.

If another disciple had said this, he would certainly think they were aiming too high.

But when Mo Hua said it, he only felt that Mo Hua was seeking truth realistically, and also had ambition.

Since every other formation topic had already been discussed, talking about some Thunder Magnetism knowledge to broaden Mo Hua’s understanding ahead of time wouldn’t be bad.

Elder Zheng took a sip of tea and then said to Mo Hua:

“So-called Thunder Magnetism attack and defense have specific formation regulations…”

“The terms Thunder and Magnetism are actually one and the same. Where there’s Thunder, there’s Magnetism, and vice versa. One can use Thunder Flow to influence magnetic patterns, and conversely, use magnetic patterns to generate specific Thunder Flows.”

“The Thunder Magnetic Array is thus conceived from Magnetism creating Thunder.”

“This ‘Thunder’ is the traces left by the Secondary Thunder Flow, which is then known as the Secondary Thunder Pattern.”

“A Formation Master skilled in Thunder Magnetism forms various Thunder Flows via the Thunder Magnetic Array, using these Thunder Flows for magnetic pattern theft, alteration, attack, defense, inspection, and screening, etc…”

“Thunder Magnetic Array Masters rely on formations as the foundation, divine sense as the base, computational power as the core, Secondary Thunder Patterns as the blade, with the Original Magnet Array as the battleground, engaging in combat.”

“The essence of this confrontation is essentially a battle of formation attainment, Thunder Magnetism comprehension, divine sense depth, divine sense calculation power, and each other’s mental strategy.”

“This is a war waged microcosmically within Thunder Magnetism, unseen like smoke from gunfire…”

Mo Hua suddenly became enlightened, a trace of shock in his heart.

Elder Zheng said: “But such contention must remain obscured, as I told you before…”

“Anything involving Thunder Magnetism necessarily involves secrecy, and all conflicts can only occur within Thunder Magnetism; once exposed, it’s easy to invite disaster that leads to death.”

“I’m telling you these things in hopes that you’ll progress in formations. If you invite calamity upon yourself for learning Thunder Magnetism formations in the future, it would be my fault.”

Elder Zheng, eager to preserve talents, remarked appreciatively.

Mo Hua earnestly nodded, “Elder Zheng, rest assured, I will surely bear this in mind.”

Elder Zheng slightly nodded, “That’s good.”

Afterward, they talked for a while longer, and Mo Hua asked for clarification on the parts he didn’t understand.

Elder Zheng explained bit by bit, in great detail.

So it went, until evening, with Mo Hua, full of new insights, gratefully bidding farewell to Elder Zheng.

Upon returning to the Taixu Gate, Mo Hua, following his usual practice, transcribed the insights Elder Zheng had imparted regarding the Thunder Magnetism formations onto a Jade Slip, then earnestly read and carefully contemplated them.

Elder Zheng, truly well-educated with profound expertise, was a Fourth-grade Array Master skilled in Thunder Skill, and his guidance was thorough and insightful.

Mo Hua learned much again.

He also realized the similarities and differences between ordinary Thunder Magnetism Formation Masters and himself.

Ordinary Thunder Magnetism Formation Masters usually master a complete system of Thunder Magnetism formations, using formations to invoke changes in Thunder Magnetism to control Secondary Thunder Patterns to achieve altering magnetic patterns or using Original Magnet for attack and defense effects.
