Chapter 486: Golden Lock, Triple Lotus Earth Fire
Chapter 486: Golden Lock, Triple Lotus Earth Fire
Within Mo Hua's sea of consciousness, a hideous and zombie-like Tie Shi Elder stared in disbelief. Could an ordinary Qi Refining cultivator possess such abundant spiritual sense? Without hesitation, it immediately sucked in a mouthful.
Sweet, pure, crystalline, and lingering, this spiritual sense even carried a deep and profound trace of Daoist essence.
The zombie elder's eyes widened in surprise.
Supreme spiritual sense!
In its lifetime, it had never tasted such delicious spiritual sense. Moreover, the abundance of spiritual sense here would sustain it for a long time.
If it devoured this young one's spiritual sense and digested it, its divine soul would surely become more solid, and its strength would also improve by leaps and bounds. Even the old ancestor would favor it greatly...
The zombie elder, with its ugly face and agitated expression, was about to take another bite when Mo Hua, hidden to the side, stared coldly at it.
"Spit out my spiritual sense!"
Mo Hua pointed, and a fireball spell flew out swiftly, arriving in an instant.
The fireball spell surged with spiritual power. The scarlet flame-like spiritual power, manifested by divine sense, twisted and entangled like silken threads, carrying a terrifying burning force.
The fireball spell exploded on the zombie elder, burning its manifested clothes to a crisp and eroding its true body.
The silk-like flame spiritual power penetrated everywhere, like red-hot blades slicing through its flesh.
The zombie elder's expression changed drastically.
"What is this?"
A spell?
It suddenly transformed into its zombie state, its body enlarging, its veins bulging, and its icy zombie aura spreading, extinguishing the scorching flames on its body.
Even so, it had still suffered significant injuries.
"Who dares?"
The zombie elder roared in anger, but its voice carried a hint of panic.
Mo Hua gradually revealed herself, her small body and cold expression belying the profound aura that surrounded her.
The zombie elder was startled by Mo Hua's appearance.
Within the sea of consciousness, her thick aura, ability to manifest herself, and use of spells indicated that she was no ordinary ghost...
It had miscalculated.
This little ghost had deceived it.
His childish appearance was just a facade; he was actually a tough nut to crack...
The zombie elder said respectfully, "I apologize for my intrusion, young friend. I was desperate."
Mo Hua kept a straight face and ignored him.
The zombie elder's gloomy gaze shifted slightly as it said, "But I have my reasons for acting this way..."
"I won't hide it from you, young friend. I've been hungry and thirsty for more than a month, without a drop of water. Can you show some hospitality and offer me some spiritual sense to ease my hunger? Take pity on me, let me have some, and I'll leave."
Its ugly face and sinister gaze belied the pleading tone of its voice.
Mo Hua was speechless.
As expected of a zombie, its face was thicker than a city wall.
Mo Hua didn't want to waste any more time. She was stealing this spiritual sense, and time was limited. She needed to act swiftly and decisively to avoid being discovered by Lu Chengyun, which could lead to unnecessary complications.
Mo Hua raised her hand and cast another fireball spell.
The zombie elder flew into a rage when it saw that Mo Hua was unmoved by its pleas, "Shameless brat, relying on your meager skills to bully others!"
It wanted to dodge, but the fireball spell was too fast and accurate. It had no choice but to take the hit.
The fireball exploded, engulfing the zombie elder in flames. Its body turned charred black, and its figure faded slightly.
At the same time, Mo Hua clenched her small hand.
The silken water prison spell transformed into a hundred threads that entangled the zombie elder tightly. The spiritual silk then condensed into a lattice, trapping it firmly.
The zombie elder's expression changed drastically, and it struggled desperately to break free.
But before it could escape, Mo Hua pointed with her finger, moved her divine sense, and began to manifest the Golden Lock Array beneath its feet.
Starting from the array eye, the golden array patterns spread out like blooming peonies, extending outward and covering the ground. In just a few breaths, a golden array took form.
The array shone with golden light, and the spiritual power condensed into shackles, locking the zombie elder in place.
The zombie elder was shocked and terrified.
What was this technique? An array?
Was this really happening within the sea of consciousness?
Wasn't the sea of consciousness supposed to be a place where divine senses clashed? How could someone use an array here?
But it wasn't over yet.
Mo Hua clasped her hands together, closed her eyes, and concentrated, pushing her spiritual sense to the extreme.
Outside the Golden Lock Array, crimson light flashed, and fiery spiritual power twisted and turned like divine brushstrokes, simultaneously forming three Earth Fire Arrays.
The intersection of the three Earth Fire Arrays was the Golden Lock Array in the middle.
In other words, the trapped zombie elder!
This was a composite array designed by Mo Hua herself, named the Golden Lock Triple Lotus Earth Fire Composite Array.
It was constructed based on her understanding of the trapping and killing arrays within the Five Elements Beast-Slaying Grand Array, a miniature version of a trapping composite array.
"Litt..."
Before it could beg for mercy, Mo Hua interrupted without a word.
"Explode!"
Mo Hua's crisp command rang out.
The triple Earth Fire Arrays instantly detonated, blooming like fiery lotuses. Scorching spiritual power spread out, engulfing the zombie elder.
The intense flames devoured the elder, leaving it charred and blackened, its figure fading away.
In just moments, the flames dissipated, revealing the zombie elder's burnt limbs and a dimmed figure, indicating severe injuries.
A combination of Mo Hua's spiritual power, spells, and arrays had directly blown the zombie elder to pieces.
Mo Hua nodded in satisfaction.
The power of the Golden Lock Triple Lotus Earth Fire Array did not disappoint, effectively trapping and destroying his enemy.
The key was integrating entrapment and assault.
First, entrap, then annihilate.
As long as he could defeat his enemies, he would make sure they had no chance to escape.
The zombie elder was barely clinging to life, neither killed nor able to flee.
It stared at Mo Hua, filled with disbelief.
Who was this little ghost?
How could he be so formidable?
One after another, Mo Hua unleashed spiritual powers, spells, and arrays, swiftly overpowering and destroying the zombie elder, a Qi Refining cultivator at the Foundation Establishment stage. It had no chance to fight back!
Was it going to perish entirely, both body and soul?
The zombie elder was terrified and unwilling to accept its fate. With its last breath, it rasped:
"You... dare to kill an elder of the Zhang family. Our... ancestor will not let you off..."
Mo Hua smiled brightly, his smile pure and innocent.
"What a coincidence, I didn't plan on letting your ancestor off the hook either."
The zombie elder's eyes widened in shock, "You..."
Before it could finish, Mo Hua sent it to its end with a few fireball spells.
The once menacing zombie elder was blasted into smoke by Mo Hua's relentless attack.
Mo Hua used an array to contain the smoke, intending to refine it when he had the time.
Now was not the right moment, as Lu Chengyun was still outside.
Mo Hua withdrew from his sea of consciousness, opening his eyes with a clear mind.
Lu Chengyun was still engrossed in contemplating the Observation Diagram, oblivious to everything else.
There weren't any significant changes to the diagram except for the absence of another ancestor of the Zhang family from the corner seat.
Mo Hua tried to summarize the battle but found there wasn't much to conclude.
It was as simple as using his spiritual power to manifest spells and arrays, trapping a Foundation Establishment stage iron zombie elder, and then finishing it off.
A seamless combination of spiritual power, spells, and arrays—a smooth and flawless victory.
Overpowering the weak with strength.
It seemed like bullying, but in reality, it was the strong overpowering the "weak."
It was a straightforward victory without any twists or turns.
However, Mo Hua felt a sense of pride in his abilities.
His spiritual power and offensive capabilities were indeed formidable.
The incident with the Mysterious Daoist was purely an accident.
The Daoist was profound and unfathomable, his cultivation level unknown, and his means unpredictable. He couldn't be judged by common sense.
Aside from him, most ghosts and evil spirits wouldn't be a match for Mo Hua within the sea of consciousness.
He just needed to be cautious.
Silence fell within the altar.
Mo Hua, having secretly "consumed" one of the iron zombie elders, felt content and didn't plan to make another move. He quietly hid behind the altar, waiting for Lu Chengyun to leave.
Half an hour later, Lu Chengyun finished his contemplation, feeling his spiritual sense replenished and his face lit up with joy.
Indeed, the Observation Diagram was a treasure for array masters.
After comprehending it, one could nourish their sea of consciousness, enhance their spiritual sense, and improve their understanding of the Dao.
Lu Chengyun caressed the diagram of his ancestor, reluctant to part with it.
He carefully put away the diagram, but as he did so, he paused, a confused look on his face.
Something about the diagram seemed too perfect...
He examined it closely and furrowed his brows.
It seemed like someone was missing from the diagram.
"Where did they go?"
Lu Chengyun was perplexed.
He continued to stare at the diagram, still puzzled.
Did he miss something?
Or had his repeated contemplations of the diagram caused some damage, resulting in an incomplete display?
Lu Chengyun nodded, thinking that must be the case.
Since he was the only one viewing and contemplating the diagram, any issues must be his doing.
Lu Chengyun felt a pang of regret, and his gaze turned slightly dark as a faint, sinister smile played on his lips. He murmured:
"Looks like I need to find a way to get someone to feed this diagram..."
