Immortality Through Array Formations - Chapter 1339: 756: Divine Way Compound Formation (Thank you, Alliance Hierarch Xiao Bai Bai's Radish~)

Chapter 1339: Chapter 756: Divine Way Compound Formation (Thank you, Alliance Hierarch Xiao Bai Bai’s Radish~)

This trace of Evil God’s aura is very faint. For an average cultivator, it would be completely undetectable.

Even Brother Ma himself might not realize that he carries this hint of evil qi.

But it shouldn’t be wrong…

Mo Hua silently pondered in his heart.

He was somewhat of an “old acquaintance” with the Great Wilderness Evil God—though the Evil God might not necessarily recognize him.

Then Mo Hua couldn’t help but frown.

But, why does Brother Ma carry the aura of the Evil God?

Could it be that this Brother Ma is one of the Evil God’s henchmen?

Or perhaps, he merely came into unintentional contact with certain Evil God statues or offerings?

If that is truly the case, then it means the Evil God has already begun the erosion of the sects without anyone noticing—not just the Sever Gold Sect; other Twelve Streams, Eight Great Gates, and even the Four Great Sects might not escape.

Even if outright corruption hasn’t occurred, infiltration has at least started.

Desires dwell deeply in the human heart. Without cultivating one’s Taoist Heart, standing against the Evil God is a losing game.

“Things don’t look good…”

Mo Hua sighed.

Moreover, this Brother Ma seems to be deliberately getting close to Little Wood.

Could he be harboring other motives?

“Should I remind Little Wood about this?”

Mo Hua pondered for a moment and then shook his head.

Little Wood is too innocent; her thoughts are all written on her face. If he tells her, it’d be too easy for her to slip up.

With just one look, Brother Ma would surely know Little Wood is suspicious of him.

So for now, he couldn’t say anything to avoid alerting the snake hidden in the grass.

He would just keep an eye on things himself.

Besides, Brother Ma’s circumstances were still just his suspicions; perhaps he merely stumbled upon some Evil God demon wraiths inadvertently, without real ties to the Evil God.

“Hopefully that’s the case…”

Mo Hua silently thought to himself.

He then lifted his head and looked at Taixu Gate, shrouded in mist, its ancient elegance and towering grandeur ever-changing.

“If Tai’a Sect is indeed being infiltrated by the Evil God…”

“Then what about Taixu Gate?”

Mo Hua’s gaze became sharp, and after thinking for a moment, he realized that Taixu Gate should be safe for now.

If there were signs of Evil God infiltration within Taixu Gate, he would have already noticed. Disciples controlled by the Evil God wouldn’t escape his perception.

Mo Hua exhaled lightly in relief.

“That’s good…”

Then, suddenly, Mo Hua was stunned.

Why?

Why are other sects, even Tai’a Sect—which shares some historical ties with Taixu Gate—showing signs of the Evil God’s corruption, yet Taixu Gate remains uniquely untouched?

Mo Hua frowned in confusion.

Suddenly, he felt a faint sense of something. He raised his head and looked far away, beyond the long, straight mountain steps, beyond the ancient pavilions and palace halls marked by the passage of time, beyond the overlapping ridges shrouded in clouds and mist, toward the hidden depths of the awe-inspiring and ancestral rear mountain.

A name surfaced in his mind:

“Taixu Mind Transforming Sword True Jue…”

Mo Hua froze and his gaze brightened.

…

Later, back at the disciples’ residence, it was mealtime. Mo Hua called Yu’er over, and together they went to the dining hall for dinner.

Influenced by Mo Hua, Yu’er had developed a particular fondness for chicken legs.

After eating, Mo Hua checked Yu’er’s formation homework.

This was a request from Wenren Wan.

She knew Mo Hua had studied under Elder Master Xun and excelled in formation techniques. She sent Mo Hua many fine gifts, asking him to guide Yu’er whenever he had the time.

Aunt Wan treated him well, and teaching Yu’er was no burden, so naturally, Mo Hua agreed.

Nowadays, Mo Hua could be counted as Yu’er’s half “formation teacher.”

Between cultivation lessons, or over tea and meals, he would help Yu’er learn the basics of formations.

Since Yu’er was young and still in the introductory phase, her lessons were simple. Mo Hua found teaching her quite easy.

And because it was Mo Hua instructing her, Yu’er learned with great focus and progressed rapidly.

Mo Hua was very pleased.

After finishing Yu’er’s formation assignments, Mo Hua sent her back to her room and returned to his own quarters to delve deeply into the “Divine Tao Array” manuscripts he had copied from the forest.

The Divine Tao Array handbooks he transcribed contained eighteen diagrams in total.

Each formation shared the same fundamental structure, and the formation patterns looked similar. It was evident they were part of the same category of “Divine Tao Array.”

Yet the specific patterns within each formation showed differences.

It was like looking at leaves from the same tree—they appeared similar but had distinct vein patterns.

This seemed to be…

“A Divine Compound Formation?”

In hindsight, it made sense. In such an expansive forest, the effectiveness of a single formation would surely be limited.

Only by stitching together multiple single formations into a compound formation could they amplify the effect to better mask divine sense and conceal secrets.

Although, it would only stop at being a compound formation.

A large-scale Divine Formation would simply be impossible.

The inheritance of Divine Formations was extremely scarce; formation masters who mastered Divine Formations were even rarer.

Who would have the ability to employ so many Divine Formation masters and sacrifice such immense telekinetic power to construct a grand “Large Divine Formation”…

Building out a Divine Compound Formation would already be quite impressive.

“Then, what exactly is the Divine Compound Formation concealed in the dense forest?”

Mo Hua silently mused.

“Divine Tao Array” was a collective term for a certain category of formations. Each individual Divine Formation must have its own unique name.

That included the Four Symbols Formation as well.

Mo Hua had seen two kinds of Four Symbols Formation thus far—one was the eagle-patterned formation on the bald eagle’s head, and the other was the wolf-patterned formation on the monster cultivator’s arm.

Judging by their traits, he could tentatively refer to them as the “Four Symbols Eagle Pattern Formation” and the “Four Symbols Wolf Pattern Formation.”

But what about Divine Tao Array?

The Divine Formations in the small fishing village and mysterious forest seemed to stem from the same lineage, yet their specific patterns differed. They must be two distinct types of Divine Formations.
