Immortality Through Array Formations Chapter 2238

[ … words ]

In the eyes of ordinary cultivators, the Spiritual Ink before Mo Hua seemed like silk, writhing like a poisonous snake to automatically form Formation Patterns.

This appeared less like a Formation and more like a “Demon Skill.”

This technique of manipulating ink without a brush or paper to create a formation was something utterly unprecedented for them.

The elders of the Ten Thousand Formations Sect were equally shocked out of composure.

Their reaction was much more intense than the ordinary cultivators.

Because they were from a sect focused on formations, and elders of formations.

As Formation Elders from the Twelve Streams Formation Sect, who have studied formations their entire lives, they understood better than anyone the significance of the eight words “Divine Sense Control Ink, Drawing Ground into Formation.”

This kind of formation technique isn’t something that can be learned easily through mere talent.

It truly contains insights and applications related to the “Dao.”

Learning it is difficult, mastering it even harder.

Let alone at such a crucial moment during the Shura battle, deploying such a complex, large-scale ink manipulation formation with precision at lightning speed.

Simply… divine craftsmanship…

“How on earth did a little cultivator at the Foundation Establishment Late Stage learn such a formation technique reminiscent of divine workmanship…”

This question simultaneously surfaced in the minds of all the Formation Elders.

And the scene of Mo Hua deploying divine sense manipulation ink also presented itself before the eyes of all the “prestigious figures” at the Sword Observation Tower.

The Sect Leaders of various sects were all visibly shocked.

Even some elders, direct lineage members from the Taoist Court Seven Pavilions and ancient aristocratic families were somewhat moved.

Even the Sect Leader of the Three Mountains of Taixu Gate was a bit stunned and lost in thought.

None of them had previously known that Mo Hua possessed such techniques.

Meanwhile, within the Sword Observation Hall.

Some ancestors who had been resting with their eyes closed, detached from everything, even opened their eyes to take a look at the spectacle, and then turned to Elder Master Xun beside them.

One ancestor asked in wonder:

“Communicating with earth’s essence, drawing ground into formation?”

“When did your Taixu Gate receive Earth Sect’s heritage?”

Elder Master Xun gazed deeply, remaining silent.

He doesn’t answer, which itself is an attitude, indicating nothing can be disclosed.

Seeing this, other Heaven Void Ancestors also wisely refrained from further questioning.

The heritage of a sect is each sect’s secret.

Even if Taixu Gate actually acquired Earth Sect’s heritage, or knew how to communicate with earth’s essence, they were under no obligation to reveal it.

Moreover, Earth Sect is powerful, adhering to old traditions.

Acquiring their heritage may not necessarily be beneficial, and Taixu Gate would never admit it.

In the hall, no one pressed the issue further.

Elder Master Xun kept his composure, secretly relieved.

This question, indeed, he didn’t know how to answer…

…

At this moment, in the spectator seats, people’s emotions were turbulent, and discussions were rife.

It wasn’t just the outside spectators who were shaken.

Within the sword discussion arena, the four sects and seven gates’ prodigies, suddenly halted in their attack by Mo Hua’s formation, also had their expressions drastically changed, and their gazes were stunned.

The external spectators watched through Fengtian Pictorial Water Screen.

Whereas they were witnessing firsthand, Mo Hua managing nearly a hundred Spiritual Inks, drawing formations seemingly out of thin air like a demon monster.

It was simply like a “formation monster.”

No one could remain unshocked, causing them to stand idly for quite a while after being isolated by the formation, before regaining their senses.

Soon, they realized they were trapped by Mo Hua’s formation.

“Quick, break the formation!”

Someone shouted.

The prodigies from the four sects and seven gates inside and outside the valley together attacked the formation set by Mo Hua.

Sword glints and blade shadows, water and fire magic, poured forth.

Yet this formation seemed to have merged completely with the mountains, absorbing all Taoist skill attacks, only fading a little.

“Second Grade High-Rank… Compound Formation?”

Everyone gasped.

Moreover, it wasn’t just any compound formation; it was a Second Grade High-Rank Compound Formation that perfectly aligned with Bagu Mountain, and the Five Elements land.

Is this the true formation skill of Mo Hua, the Formation Leader?

Paperless, medium-less, instant creation of a Second Grade High-Rank Compound Formation?!

All the prodigies found it hard to believe.

In such a confined terrain, breaking this formation would require a great effort.

It was virtually impossible to conquer in a short time.

And they didn’t forget, behind them, were Taixu Gate disciples still watching them like tigers eyeing prey.

The situation suddenly quieted down.

Within the valley, a stand-off began between a hundred prodigies, led by Vajra Sect’s Shi Tiangang, Gui Water Sect’s Qin Cangliu, Sever Gold Sect’s Song Kui, and others from the four sects and seven gates, and Taixu Gate.

Outside the valley, the main forces of the Four Great Sects, along with some prodigies from the Seven Major Gates, were temporarily isolated by the Second Grade “Earth and Wood Sealing Mountain Compound Formation” set by Mo Hua.

Out of caution against Mo Hua, none dared to act recklessly.

The tension spread a delicate balance over the field, but with an overwhelming atmosphere of anxiety and weight.

Outside the field, all cultivators spectating through Fengtian Pictorial Water Screen were closely monitoring the situation.

They were also somewhat apprehensive.

But soon, someone spotted an issue.

Disciples from the Ten Thousand Formations Sect were whispering:

“Isn’t Mo Hua’s formation used incorrectly?”

“Why did he use a Trapping Formation, instead of a Killing Formation?”

“With a Killing Formation, once triggered, in a confined valley, it could cause massive damage and kill quite a lot of people.”

“There are too many prodigies from the four sects and seven gates, even with a Killing Formation, it wouldn’t kill many.”

“Then wouldn’t a Trapping Formation be even more useless?”

“Using a Trapping Formation merely seals the mountain pass…”

“Outside the pass, there are over a hundred prodigies from the four sects and seven gates.”

“Inside the pass, similarly, there are over a hundred people.”

“While Taixu Gate, at most, has about thirty people.”

“Using a Trapping Formation to seal the mountain, although cuts off the enemy, they’re still facing over a hundred prodigies from the four sects and seven gates.”
