The Quest for Immortality

Swept by Mo Hua’s gaze, all demon monsters and evil fiends were utterly terrified, with their souls dispersed and trembling incessantly.

They were afraid of being ”eaten.”

The color of the black water lightened a bit, as if it had exhausted all its strength, and the birth of the Pig Head Demon, which was eaten, had damaged its vital energy.

From within the black water, a strong sense of anger emanated.

It seemed that no ”person” had ever dared to disrespect it like this.

Especially this person, who was still a child with an immature face, not yet weaned from milk.

But at the same time, deep fear also arose in its mind.

Although eating this child would be highly nourishing,

If it expended too much energy and damaged the Divine Lord’s origin, the loss would outweigh the gain...

With a thought from Mo Hua, he seemed to sense that this pool of ”black water” was considering retreating. His eyes blinked, a spark of inspiration struck, and he puffed out his chest, lifted his head, and made an extremely arrogant expression.

Disdain filled Mo Hua’s eyes.

At the same time, he provocatively licked his lips,

Treating this mass of black water as if it were ”snacks.”

The black water hesitated for a moment then began to tremble violently, apparently infuriated by Mo Hua.

From within the black water, an even stronger murderous intent emerged.

This time it wouldn’t hold back.

The majesty of the Divine Lord could not be violated.

The dignity of the Divine Lord could not be desecrated.

It resolved to ”eat” this half-step Divine Fetus child, offering the most delicious, most devout sacrificial offering for the awakening of the Divine Lord!

Inside Mo Hua’s Sea of Consciousness, it suddenly became cold and sinister, with the filthy black water spreading, dirtying the ground.

The black water expanded, turning into a black mist, surging violently.

Before long, the black mist dissipated, revealing numerous demon monsters and heavy ghosts, all of them fierce, deformed, and ugly.

And in their chests, there was a mass of black water, pulsating like a heart, using evil and filthy black energy as blood, enhancing the power of the demon monsters.

This time, the black water hatched more demon monsters, and they were clearly stronger.

Before Mo Hua could react, a horde of hundreds of demons crazily rushed to attack, seemingly unwilling to give Mo Hua any chance to resist. They intended to tear Mo Hua apart and devour him alive.

Mo Hua furrowed his brow and began, as before, dodging with Water Passing Step, sneak attacking with small fists, occasionally using the Water Prison Technique to control, or Fireball Technique to finish off.

But these demon monsters were clearly stronger.

With one punch, he could only break their bones, disfigure them, or cripple them, but he couldn’t smash them entirely.

And the audacity of the demon monsters only grew.

They weren’t afraid of death or pain, fighting ferociously, just wanting to bite off a piece of flesh from Mo Hua.

After fighting for a while, Mo Hua grew weary, his hands and feet somewhat sore, and he could only sigh.

”Body Cultivation is so tiring...”

It was refreshing indeed, but after a long while, it also got a bit boring.

With one punch, Mo Hua twisted the face of a Horse Face Demon; with a backward kick, he broke the waist of a Wolf Demon; grabbing the horns of a Bull Demon, he forcefully swung it, knocking down a large group of demon monsters...

Seizing this opportunity, Mo Hua tapped the ground with his foot and stepped back a few paces to distance himself.

”I’m done playing...”

Mo Hua spoke indifferently, then spread his arms, his pupils turning pitch black instantly.

His aura instantly changed from innocent and clear to deep and tricky.

Dark and mysterious patterns emerged all around him, densely woven, forming an Ink Taoist Robe that draped over his body.

The crowd of demons changed color instantly.

From the black water, a piercing roar emerged, twisting into intermittent, panicky human voices:

”Heavenly Secret Tricky Path?!”

”You are...”

”Tricky...”

”...who exactly are you?!”

Mo Hua didn’t bother with idle chatter; his Divine Sense extended to the utmost, his eyes filled with overlapping illusions, and his robe heavily patterned.

His Divine Sense tilted out, and in the Sea of Consciousness, it quickly solidified into a massive Formation, enveloping all the demon monsters and ghosts.

”Li Mountain Fire Cremation Formation!”

This was a Compound Formation Mo Hua had tinkered with during his leisure, above the primary stage of Second Grade, matching the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams. It combined the fires of the Five Elements and Bagua Fire, trapping enemies with the Eight Trigram Gen Mountain, a confining and killing Compound Formation.

This Compound Formation was constructed under the guidance of Elder Master Xun and Mo Hua’s own insights from constructing the Five Elements Slaughter Demon Great Formation, trying to blend the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams Formation System into his Compound Formation.

This formation was very difficult.

There were various restrictions in reality.

With Mo Hua’s current Divine Sense Realm, it was strenuous to depict.

But within his own Sea of Consciousness, Mo Hua’s Divine Thoughts, unrestrained, manifested the Formation at will, unscrupulously.

Mo Hua intended to use this Compound Formation to ”stew” all these demon monsters and ghosts in one pot to nourish himself.

The moment the formation materialized, the black water sensed a great terror.

It never expected that merely seeking a light refreshment would lead it to encounter a monstrous being capable of instantly creating formations through Tricky Path, possessing a half-step Divine Fetus form!

But it was too late.

Mo Hua’s eyes flashed with a killing intent, his small hand clenched, crisply declaring:

”Kill!”

Instantly, the Li Mountain Fire Cremation Compound Formation activated.

Divine Thought Manifestation caused rocks to protrude, craggy and interwoven, forming a rocky prison, trapping all the demon monsters.

Then, the fires of the Five Elements surged, with the Bagua Fire covering the top, the two intertwining like magma, flowing between the rocks.

The entire Compound Formation was like an erupting volcano.

The demon monsters and ghosts, trapped inside the volcano, were scorched by the fierce flames and engulfed by the molten lava.

Their flesh blackened inch by inch, turning to ash.

In an endless inferno, countless deformed and fierce demon monsters clutched their heads, screaming in pain and anguish.

And the ”embryo” black water was also burned by the fierce flames, evaporating bit by bit, turning into black mist.
