The Quest for Immortality

Yuan Magnetic Formation was so proficiently mastered, other formations, especially the Evil Formation, must have also been thoroughly studied...

Thankfully, he died first!

Otherwise, it would have been troublesome.

”Right, I even don’t know the name of this Evil Formation Master...”

Mo Hua pondered in his heart, then thought again.

Never mind, it doesn’t matter anymore, he’s dead anyway.

Mo Hua felt justified as he flipped through these Yuan Magnetic Formation Books, especially that copy of the ”Yuan Magnetic Spiritual Vision Complex Formation Chart”.

While looking at them, Mo Hua furrowed his brows.

Gu Changhuai asked, ”Can you understand it?”

Mo Hua shook his head, ”This Compound Formation is of the Eighteen Patterns, even more difficult than a typical Eighteen Patterns Formation...”

”Moreover, the Yuan Magnetic Formation knowledge involved here is also quite unfamiliar.”

”The Yuan Magnetic Spiritual Vision Formation has Seventeen Patterns...”

”There’s also the Yuan Magnetic Core’s sequence control, which is even more profound...”

Gu Changhuai found everything complicated as he listened.

”So, should we destroy this Yuan Magnetic Compound Formation?”

Mo Hua shook his head again, ”This Yuan Magnetic Compound Formation is bidirectional. If we destroy it, the Yuan Magnetic early warning in the Demon Palace will be disabled, and the communication among the Demon Cultivators will fail, which might alert them...”

”Then do we just leave it here and ignore it?”

”Leaving it unattended could also lead to problems...”

Mo Hua pondered for a moment and then said, ”I’ll try to learn it, see if I can master it...”

Gu Changhuai was taken aback, ”You... are learning it now?”

”Yes...” Mo Hua looked somewhat blank.

If he didn’t know, he would have to learn on the spot...

Gu Changhuai looked complex and then said, ”But your Divine Sense, it probably isn’t enough...”

Mo Hua nodded, ”I don’t need to be able to draw it, just to use it.”

He pointed at the Yuan Magnetic Core in front of him, ”Someone else has already built it, I just need to learn how to control this Yuan Magnetic Core, and the requirements for Divine Sense aren’t so strict, my current Divine Sense is enough...”

”Oh...” Gu Changhuai didn’t quite understand but nodded, ”Alright, try and learn it.”

Having worked at the Taoist Court for so long, he understood that ”professional” matters should be left to the professionals...

Therefore, Gu Changhuai and others kept guard nearby.

Mo Hua calmed down and began to explore these, evidently more advanced, Yuan Magnetic Compound Formations.

There was limited time, he couldn’t learn too deeply.

His Divine Sense was also limited; he couldn’t master these formations yet.

He could only first try to understand the Formation principle.

The first thing he looked at was the Yuan Magnetic Spiritual Vision Formation.

The Yuan Magnetic Spiritual Vision Single Formation was the foundation for the structure of the Yuan Magnetic Spiritual Vision Compound Formation.

Mo Hua reviewed the Formation Patterns, the basic core structure, and the Formation Method Maps. Based on the Fixed Magnetic Patterns in the Yuan Magnetic Spiritual Vision Formation, he somewhat understood the function of this formation.

It was a ”Spiritual Power Surveillance” Formation.

It allowed him to visualize the presence of a cultivator’s Spiritual Power through magnetic flow sensing.

However, the range was limited, and as it represented ”Spiritual Power”, it was easily disturbed by various airs between heaven and earth, making the image a bit blurry.

Mo Hua suddenly realized.

Earlier in the corridor, those three Demon Cultivators and one Demon Hound, the reason they returned was likely because the nearby Yuan Magnetic Spiritual Vision Formation had detected their Spiritual Power traces.

But the Evil Formation Master was somewhat uncertain.

Hence, he sent those three people and one dog back to check.

Understanding the principle of the formation made things easier.

As for the specifics of the formation, he couldn’t learn them now but could keep them for later.

Mo Hua secretly stuffed the Formation Books into his Storage Bag.

Next was the Yuan Magnetic Spiritual Vision Compound Formation.

Understanding the principle of the Single Formation, he then divided and overviewed the Yuan Magnetic Spiritual Vision Compound Formation, making some key aspects easier to understand.

This set of Yuan Magnetic Spiritual Vision Compound Formations was a unified monitoring, surveillance, and communication system of the Demon Cave Yuan Magnetic Defense System.

Yuan Magnetic Defense didn’t protect against cultivators’ attacks but aimed to prevent the leakage of secrets.

Using this set of Yuan Magnetic Spiritual Vision Compound Formations, he could unify the scheduling of all the Demon Cultivators in the entire Demon Palace, consolidating them into one.

Thus making the entire Demon Cave impervious to penetration, ”as solid as a gold soup”.

It was just a pity, success also by formation, failure also by formation.

The formation was the barrier of the Demon Palace, but in Mo Hua’s eyes, it also became the biggest flaw.

Mo Hua studied the Yuan Magnetic Formation without distraction...

Gu Changhuai silently watched from the side.

He saw Mo Hua with his head down, engrossed in the formation, sometimes frowning, sometimes smoothing his brows, occasionally pondering, occasionally muttering something lowly, or sometimes gesturing on the ground with his hand as a pen...

It was as if, in the entire world, there was nothing but the formation.

Gu Changhuai sighed silently in his heart.

In such a perilous place, to be able to concentrate so intensely on the formation in a flash.

No wonder he had mastered Formation so well at such a young age...

Who knows how long it had been when Mo Hua’s eyes brightened.

Gu Changhuai, seeing this, his gaze sharpened,

”Formation Pivot... did you learn it?”

”I learned a bit,” Mo Hua said.

Then he got up and, with quick reflexes, scooped up all the Yuan Magnetic Formation Books and Formation Diagrams into his Storage Bag before Gu Changhuai.

Struck it rich!

For Yuan Magnetic Formations of Seventeen Patterns and above, and the Yuan Magnetic Compound Formation.

To buy them from the Sect, he wouldn’t know how many Merit Points it would cost.

Just thinking about it hurt.

Then, pretending not to see Gu Changhuai, Mo Hua walked up to the control Array Plate of the Yuan Magnetic Compound Formation like nothing had happened and began to try controlling the entire Formation Pivot.

Gu Changhuai watched as Mo Hua sneakily ”embezzled” some items.

But at such a time, he couldn’t call out and disturb him, so he could only sigh, pretending he hadn’t seen anything.

The Formation Pivot of the Yuan Magnetic Spiritual Vision Compound Formation was covered with a foggy layer of ”magnetic flow”.

Mo Hua, using his Divine Sense, tried repeatedly to connect with the Formation Pivot.

But the Compound Formation’s Formation Pivot was very resistant.

The internal magnetic flow chaos also put immense pressure on his Divine Sense.

Mo Hua tried several times unsuccessfully, finally his expression darkened, and he lost patience.

With his Sixteen Patterns quality-transformed Divine Sense, he forcibly endured the chaotic magnetic flow, breaking through the ”magnetic fog”.

Subsequently, using the Yuan Magnetic knowledge he just learned, he controlled the Yuan Magnetic Spiritual Vision Compound Formation’s Formation Pivot.

In that moment, Mo Hua felt as if his Divine Sense had suddenly become clear.

The entire Demon Palace, in an abstract yet stringent pattern of the Formation Pivot system, appeared in his mind.

Formations as anchors.

Demon Cultivators as soldiers.

Spirit Vision Formations as heavenly eyes, displaying Spiritual Power appearances, peering into critical corners of the Demon Palace...

Mo Hua suddenly had the feeling that he understood everything:

”This Demon Palace, it’s mine now!”
