Chapter 753 Dense Forest
This monster is a demon cultivator, and not an ordinary demon cultivator.
In addition to cultivating evil skills and having a body that can be "demonized", it also has mysterious four-elephant demon patterns painted on its body!
Mo Hua licked his lips lightly.
Four-image formation!
This is a category of formations that is different from the Five Elements and Bagua formation systems.
Taixumen is not taught.
Even ordinary sects do not have the inheritance of the four-image formation. It is a quite rare formation.
“We have to catch this monster, peel off its skin, and copy down the array pattern...”
Mo Hua's eyes lit up, and he pushed the water-passing step to the extreme. His footsteps were like wind, following the bloodstains on the ground, chasing the seriously injured demon cultivator.
The demon cultivator had a broken arm and half of his body was covered in blood. He crawled across the ground, leaving an obvious blood mark.
But it is a demon cultivator after all, and its physical body recovers quickly.
The blood stains on the ground were like springs at first, then gradually became like streams, and finally only intermittent blood marks were left.
But no matter how faint the blood stains are, it can't hide the spiritual consciousness of Mo Hua.
What's more, he still has calculations.
With the line of cause and effect guiding it, it is almost impossible for this demon cultivator to escape.
Chasing a stick of incense like this, the blood stains on the ground were almost undetectable, and there was only a faint smell of blood in the air.
Ink painting can only continue to pursue based on the light red **** causal line.
But after chasing for a while, the line of cause and effect suddenly broke.
Mo Hua frowned, looked up, and found that he had reached the depths of the mountain forest at some point.
The trees in front of us are densely packed and obscured by mist.
Beyond, to the left, to the left, as far as the eye can see.
At first glance, you have no idea where you are.
What's even more strange is that when the spiritual consciousness is released, everything seems to be normal under perception. However, only by careful analysis, one can find that the spiritual consciousness can't “see” anything...
It was as if something had quietly absorbed Peeping's spiritual consciousness.
It's like the entire mountain forest has woven a layer of "fog" of spiritual thoughts, blocking the monks' spiritual perception.
The seriously injured monster disappeared into the forest, just like a fish swimming into the sea, and the evil tiger returned to the forest without a trace.
“Lost in pursuit?”
Mo Hua's expression was slightly startled, his brows furrowing more and more tightly.
With his divine consciousness and divine calculations, he has rarely lost track of anyone, let alone such a seriously injured monk...
This dense forest…
Mo Hua stood blankly, staring at the dense forest for a long time. The God of Hell thought hard, and suddenly realized something, and his pupils trembled.
What can block spiritual consciousness?
Such a large-scale isolation of spiritual consciousness must be a formation!
But general formations cannot actually "isolate" spiritual consciousness.
Most confidential formations take into account both sound insulation and spiritual isolation.
But this so-called formation that "isolates" spiritual consciousness, in principle, uses the formation to create chaotic spiritual power and form a "barrier" to "isolate" spiritual perception.
The underlying principle is confusion at the spiritual level, not isolation at the spiritual level.
When you peer into it with your spiritual consciousness, you can feel the obvious and obstructive "barriers".
But there is no dense forest in front of me.
There is no obvious "barrier", but it can isolate the spiritual consciousness from prying eyes, making it difficult for people to see what is going on.
And this kind of formation that can truly "isolate" perception from the level of spiritual consciousness, it can be inferred from principle that it must involve the use of some kind of spiritual power.
In other words, the formation in this dense forest is...
Shinto formation? !
Mo Hua took a slight breath of cold air.
it turns out…
Buy one get one free? !
He never expected that in the mountains outside the Monster Refining Mountain that he was accustomed to, under his nose, there were two types of rare formations hidden at the same time.
The four-image formation on the demon cultivator.
And, integrated with the dense forest in front of you...
Shinto formation!
Mo Hua let go of his spiritual consciousness and looked at it again, but as soon as his spiritual consciousness entered the deep forest, it was like mud entering the sea, without making any sound.
Even if his spiritual consciousness had not been powerful and qualitatively changed, his perception was sharp, and his spiritual thoughts were subtle, he would not have noticed at all that when his spiritual consciousness was peering into this dense forest, he actually did not "see" anything.
Spiritual consciousness “turns a blind eye”…
This dense forest exists in spiritual consciousness, but does not exist at the same time.
Mo Hua was amazed in his heart.
What a clever method.
What a powerful formation!
Mo Hua immediately wanted to step into the forest and study the Shinto formations in the dense forest, but as soon as he raised his feet, he hesitated.
“This dense forest is a bit dangerous...”
The demon cultivator was injured and wanted to run into the forest.
It means that this dense forest is probably its shelter.
Such a large dense forest and such a sophisticated Shinto formation must not be able to be laid by ordinary monks.
There is a high probability that there are accomplices of demon cultivators deep in this dense forest.
Birds of a feather flock together.
Those who can associate with demon cultivators, even if they are not demon cultivators, must be other ferocious demon cultivators.
At the realm of cultivation, at least foundation building, golden elixirs are possible.
Now that I am alone and only in the middle stage of foundation building, it is still a bit too dangerous to rashly enter the dense forest without anyone to protect me.
Mo Hua sighed.
He wandered in front of the dense forest for a long time, hesitating in his heart. After weighing it again and again, he could only give up temporarily.
"Pity…"
The Shinto formation is clearly right in front of you.
But under the current circumstances, it was not easy for him to take risks rashly. He might as well go back first and then make long-term plans.
Since the mountains and forests are here, we won't run away any longer.
Mo Hua looked back with nostalgia and glanced at the mountains and forests, as if he was looking at his own vegetable garden.
“When everything is ready, come back and pick vegetables!”
Mo Hua nodded, and then left reluctantly.
After Mo Hua left, Xun Ziyou looked at his back and assessed Mo Hua's trajectory. After confirming that he would not be in danger in a short period of time, he walked towards the forest.
His first priority in Demon Refining Mountain is to ensure the safety of the ink paintings.
Every other thing comes second.
Now that Mo Hua is safe, he will take some time to check on the demon cultivator.
The forest is misty and the trees are towering, primitive and desolate.
Xun Ziyou walked around the mountain forest for a few times, then let go of his consciousness and scanned it several times. Still nothing was found, and he couldn't help but frown.
One of the monks in the later period of Jindan, chasing a foundation of the foundation, can you lose it?
It is true that I have been a little lazy in recent years, but I will never be lazy to this extent.
It's definitely not your own problem.
Xun Ziyou was a little dissatisfied, so he turned his head and said to the right:
“You must have lost me too.”
Light and shadow appeared on the right, and a man wearing a Chongxu Taoist robe appeared. His face was a little embarrassed, but he said:
“I was looking at Xiao'er, but I didn't pay much attention to other things.”
"how?"
Elder Chongxumen looked at Xun Ziyou and pretended to be indifferent and said, "Have you lost me?"
Xunziyou was too lazy to pay attention to him.
The two of them let go of their consciousness and searched the mountains and forests, and then they both frowned.
“It's really missing...” Elder Chongxumen also became serious, looking puzzled:
“What method does that demon cultivator have to hide from the consciousness of our two golden elixir cultivators?”
“Invisibility? Concealment of spiritual weapons?”
Xun Ziyou shook his head.
The world of cultivation is vast and there are many types of martial arts, Taoism, spiritual weapons, and it is difficult for him to make a decision at the moment.
Logically speaking, with such a huge difference in realm and consciousness, even if there are some means of concealment or masking the aura, it is impossible to hide it from their perception.
Furthermore, there is a more important question.
Xun Ziyou frowned and said:
“Why are there demon cultivators in the Demon Refining Mountain?”
Elder Chongxumen also looked solemnly:
“There are formations all around to seal the mountain. At the mountain gate, there is an formation to monitor the aura of demons. Every disciple who enters the mountain has been screened with an evil spirit mirror. We elders will also patrol the mountain continuously..."
"There will only be sect disciples in this mountain. Apart from us Jindan elders who patrol, there can be no other monks."
“Why are there demon cultivators?”
“How did it get into the mountain, how did it hide in the mountain, and what is its plan?”
Both of them looked a little solemn.
“Do you want to search the mountains?”
“If there is too much noise, it will make things worse, make people panic, cause trouble, and it may not be possible to find...”
After all, that demon cultivator disappeared under the eyes of the two Jindan cultivators.
“Stare here for a while?”
Xun Ziyou shook his head: "There's not that much time."
Their first priority is to protect Mo Hua and Linghu Xiao.
They both sighed.
Elder Chongxumen glanced at the mountains and forests in front of him again, becoming more and more confused as he looked, and murmured in a low voice:
“What method was used to deceive you and me…”
Xun Ziyou also stared at the mountain forest, frowning in confusion.
After looking at it for a while, Xunzi was startled and his eyes were solemn:
"Xuanjian, you have been in the Demon Refining Mountain for so long, but have you ever seen this forest?" Elder Chongxumen was stunned, then looked at the forest in front of him, his brows slowly furrowed.
“It does seem…a little strange…”
The Demon Refining Mountain is very large and has many mountains and forests.
But as an elder, he has been stationed at Demon Refining Mountain for a long time and has been to most places.
But the mountain forest in front of us, although it looks like an ordinary forest, is very different from other mountains and forests. At most, it is a little wider, and the edges cannot be seen at a glance. However, in comparison, the atmosphere is indeed too unfamiliar...
“You mean, it's not that the demon cultivator is clever at hiding, but that…there's something fishy in this forest?”
Asked Elder Chongxumen.
Xunzi nodded slowly.
Elder Chongxumen let go of his consciousness and scanned around.
However, although they are golden elixirs and have strong spiritual consciousness, they have not undergone qualitative changes, their perceptions are not sharp enough, they have not been proficient in formations, and they have no experience in related formations.
As soon as his consciousness swept away, the surrounding mountains and forests were still empty.
Elder Chongxumen couldn't help but ask: "What's the matter?"
Xun Ziyou shook his head.
He hasn't figured it out yet.
Xun Ziyou frowned and thought, and suddenly thought of ink painting.
He remembered that Mo Hua had just stared at the mountain forest for a long time, his eyes getting brighter and brighter, as if he had discovered something.
Then he took steps to enter the forest, but hesitated for a moment and did not go in. Before leaving, he turned back and took a meaningful look at this strange dense forest.
Xunzi You thought about it carefully and found it a little unbelievable.
The child in Mo Hua...can't see anything, right?
“But how is it possible?”
They two dignified Golden Core cultivators couldn't tell. How could he, a Foundation Establishment cultivator, tell it?
Xun Ziyou frowned.
But if it's true…
If the child was painted in ink, he would have really seen something.
That means that the secret of this forest involves something that I am very proficient in ink painting, but I am not good at it.
That is...formation!
This dense forest has been set up with a formation, so it can unknowingly block the spiritual consciousness of the Jindan cultivator and provide a hiding place for the demon cultivator?
What kind of formation?
Xun Ziyou looked at the ordinary mountains and forests in front of him. There was no trace of the formation, no clues at all, and his expression was a little dazed.
What kind of formation can this have?
How did you identify the child in Mo Hua?
No matter what, he is also a golden elixir.
I, who have lived for more than two hundred years, cannot see it, but this child, who is less than twenty years old, can see it...
Xun Ziyou sighed deeply.
Genius is annoying.
Especially a genius in formation.
The formation is too obscure and the water inside is too deep.
With some formation geniuses, you don't even know what makes them so good, let alone how big the gap is between you and them...
The elder of Chongxu Sect on the side saw Xun Ziyou's expression change, sighed, and frowned and asked:
“Do you know something?”
Xun Ziyou was startled for a moment, then came back to his senses. After thinking about it for a while, he felt that these were just his own guesses, so it was better not to say anything out loud yet.
“No, I just lamented that we elders were negligent and allowed a demon cultivator to sneak in.” Xunzi sighed.
Hearing this, Elder Chongxumen also nodded.
Xun Ziyou said again: "This matter is weird. After reporting it to the sect, we will discuss a solution. I won't make any further claims to avoid leaks..."
“That's fine.” Elder Chongxumen nodded.
After the two people discussed it, they were ready to leave.
Just before leaving, Elder Chongxumen suddenly thought of something, felt a little palpitated, and asked:
“By the way, what's going on with that 'sword-riding man'?”
Xun Ziyou pretended to be stupid and said, "What's a sword?"
The elder of Chongxu Sect was not angry, "Don't pretend to be stupid for me. I saw it with my own eyes. Even though the child was a hundred to tens of feet away, he didn't gather his sword energy. His consciousness was shocked, and a spiritual sword hit him directly. It flew out with a golden light and exploded with a ball of sword energy, crushing the demon cultivator's demonized arm and staining half of his body with blood..."
That kid named Mo Hua is only in the middle stage of foundation building.
Swordsmanship at this level has such sharp techniques, such long distances, such fast speeds, and such powerful power...
Elder Chongxumen is still frightened when he thinks about it now.
Xun Ziyou looked "shocked" and shook his head:
“No way, how is it possible? You must have seen it wrong.”
Elder Chongxumen was speechless, "How could I have seen it wrong?"
"I just misjudged it." Xun Ziyou said with a serious face, "That is not a sword, it is just a hidden weapon with a formation, and its power is actually average, but the demon cultivator was seriously injured and unable to resist. That's why it was so miserable.”
Elder Chongxumen was in disbelief, "A hidden weapon with a formation? Your nonsense must be reliable!"
Xun Ziyou asked back: "Then have you ever seen a sword cultivator who is in the middle stage of foundation building and can wield a sword of 160 feet and still be so powerful?"
The elder Chong Xumen hesitated, "This...isn't..."
This kind of thing really goes against his common sense.
"Furthermore, sword-wielding..." Xun Ziyou said again, "Even your genius disciple from Chongxu Sect, who has a bright sword mind, hasn't learned to wield a sword yet. This kid Mo Hua is not a swordsman, how can he use it like this?" A powerful sword?"
“That's right.” Elder Chongxumen couldn't help but nod.
If anything else, when it comes to swordsmanship talent, he dares to conclude that Linghuxiao is definitely the best in Chongxu Sect, and even among the best in the entire Qianxue Prefecture.
If Mo Hua really knew how to control a sword, and could control such a powerful sword, wouldn't he be even more talented than the swordsman genius of Chongxumen?
This is absolutely impossible!
Elder Chongxumen gradually became convinced.
He was far away and couldn't see clearly. He just "felt" that Mo Hua seemed to be wielding a sword. Then he was far away and hit the demon cultivator. The sword energy overflowed and a cloud of blood mist exploded.
But now that I think about it, Yu Jian is obviously unreasonable.
It is only reasonable to control a certain type of spiritual weapon with a special formation and the shape of a hidden weapon.
Elder Chongxumen nodded slightly.
Xun Ziyou, who was next to him, saw this and silently breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally got over it...
When Mo Hua does this kind of "conspicuous package" thing, he has to talk nonsense and find reasons to give him reasons, so as not to attract unnecessary attention.
But fortunately, each thing this kid did was more "outrageous" than the last.
If you say it, others may not believe it.
On the contrary, it was my own nonsense excuse, which seemed much more “reliable”.
Xun Ziyou sighed silently in his heart.
Not only must he be kept safe, but he must also make up excuses for him and make up his lies.
Is it easy for you?
“If you have a chance in the future, let this kid treat you to a drink...”
On the other side, Mo Hua, Linghu Xiao and others met.
“I ran away and can't be found.” Mo Hua sighed.
Several people were a little regretful, as they were almost able to kill the demon cultivator.
“Let's go back first and see how Cheng Mo's injury is. As for the demon cultivator, since he's in the mountains, he won't be able to escape sooner or later.”
If you dare to attack my junior brother from the Taixu Sect, you will skin him sooner or later!
Mo Hua said silently in his heart.
Everyone walked back, but on the way back, Linghu Xiao was obviously a little worried.
He secretly looked at the ink painting several times from behind, and finally couldn't help but ask:
“Can you wield a sword?”
Mo Hua was a little surprised, nodded and said: "I know a little bit, but I'm not an orthodox sword-handler. I mainly rely on the formations on the sword."
Linghu smiled and said "Hmm" and said nothing more. He just regarded Mo Hua as an unfathomable "master" in his heart.
“Sooner or later I'll have a fight with him…”
Linghu Xiao said firmly in his heart.
When they arrived at the foot of Taixu Gate, everyone separated.
Linghu smiled and returned to Chongxumen.
Mo Hua and a few people returned to Taixu Gate.
When he arrived at the mountain gate, Situ Jian asked, "Senior brother, do you want to tell the elders at the gate about the demon cultivator?"
Mo Hua thought about it and felt that this matter was a bit strange. Others did not need to talk about it, but the elders in the sect had to inform it.
“Yeah.” Mo Hua nodded.
Then he went to Elder Song, who was responsible for attendance and other disciple matters within the sect, and told him about meeting the demon cultivator at Demon Refining Mountain.
“Demon cultivator!”
When Elder Song heard this, his expression immediately became solemn.
“Okay, I will inform the sect elders on duty at Demon Refining Mountain about this matter so that they can pay attention to it and ensure the safety of the disciples.”
“The elder on duty at Demon Refining Mountain? Is this Elder Xunzi Youxun?” Mo Hua asked.
Elder Song was a little surprised, "Do you know him?"
Mo Hua shook his head and said, "We met him once and heard his name, but I don't count him as acquaintance."
Elder Song nodded, "That's right. If anything happens, Elder Xun will ask you again."
Mo Hua nodded, "Yeah, okay."
After reporting to the sect, Mo Hua felt relieved and went to see Cheng Mo again.
Cheng Mo's injury has improved a lot.
“We avenged you and cut off one of the monster's arms.”
Mo Hua also showed the small section of his arm to Cheng Mo, and then put it away himself.
Cheng Mo's breath was a little weak, and he smiled bitterly and said, "Thank you, little senior brother."
Mo Hua saw that he looked a little depressed and said:
“That's a demon cultivator. It's very strong. The five of us worked together and only broke one of its arms and let it run away.”
"You take good care of your injuries. Once your injuries are healed, let's go find the place together and chop up the monster and peel off the skin!"
Hearing this, Cheng Mo perked up and nodded with a smile:
"good!"
