Chapter 646: Evil Formation Master (Thanks to the leader of Yu Tomb Boss~)

Seeing Mo Hua's "sudden realization" look, Gu Changhuai was slightly startled, "What did you see again?"

Mo Hua thought for a while and said concisely:

“If my guess is correct, there should be a metamagnetic complex array in this demon temple, which is used to coordinate the metamagnetic array in the entire demon cave, and at the same time monitor the spiritual energy fluctuations in the temple, as well as other disturbances..."

Gu Changhuai and the other three looked at each other solemnly.

"That is to say..." Mo Hua continued, "We are not only being guarded by these patrolling demon cultivators, but we are also monitored by the Yuan Magnetic Array in the dark and the invisible 'magnetic current'..."

"If you are careless, you may trigger the formation and be discovered by the magic cultivator."

"And we probably don't even know how we were discovered..."

Gu Changhuai frowned, "Is there any way to break this complex formation?"

Mo Hua shook his head, "The Yuan Magnetic Complex Formation should be at least seventeen lines or above. It's a bit beyond the scope. I can't crack it yet..."

Gu Changhuai felt a little pity.

Gu An and Gu Quan were also a little unbelievable.

Without further delay, Mo Hua began to determine the position of the pivot of the Yuan Magnetic Complex Formation.

  Metamagnetic complex array, array monitoring...

Gu Changhuai thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement:

 “Okay, I’ll do as you say!”

The Demon Palace is densely guarded and the roads are complicated.

These metamagnetic arrays are divided into different categories.

 The plan to let the Fire Buddha die within seven days came to nothing.

 The essence of the formation is still spiritual power.

 However, this has little impact.

 Array Master…can he still have such a method?

Gu Changhuai raised his head, looked at the heavily guarded Demon Palace in front of him, and said in a deep voice:

"If this is the case, we can only retreat first and then make long-term plans..."

Although it cannot be seen on the surface, the obscure spiritual energy traces of the formation are still clearly discernible in the spiritual consciousness.

These metamagnetic arrays are only used for "positioning" and are used to observe the flow direction of the array hub through the array layout.

Mo Hua frowned.

Mo Hua has bright eyes, "He can even turn the surveillance array in the Demon Palace into his own use..."

 “If you can control the formation hub…”

From the "secondary thunder patterns" left by the magnetic current, we traced the source of the Yuan Magnetic Array in the entire outer hall, pulling out the radish and bringing it out of the mud, and found them all one by one.

 In more than seven days, I will have to go back to my sect to take classes, and it will be impossible to acquire the Meteor Fire Technique...

Gu Changhuai was shocked when he heard this.

 He really thought he could draw any formation in ink.

Occasionally, when the clues were broken, he would use calculations to sense the weak magnetic current in the air.

 This will inevitably take more time.

Mo Hua lets go of his spiritual consciousness, peeks into the Yuan Magnetic Array, feels the connection between the arrays, and thereby judges the entire Yuan Magnetic Array system.

"Um."

Such as the commonly used Xiao Yuan Magnetic Array, or the Beacon Fire Yuan Magnetic Array, etc...

 On the surface, there is no systematic metamagnetic array method.

 “The center of the complex formation?” Gu Changhuai asked.

 I didn’t expect that there are things he doesn’t know...

But for some, the formation patterns are obscure and beyond the realm of spiritual consciousness in ink paintings. Although they can be found in ink paintings, they cannot see the details and cannot tell what the formations are.

 Find out the locations of all the magnetic element formations in the outer hall.

 But then he changed his mind and felt something was wrong.

 A bit..."super class"?

Gu Changhuai couldn't help but curse.

 Is there such a thing as "super class"?

 This child, does he have any misunderstanding about the word "super class"?

But along the way, he had been surprised enough, and he was a little surprised.

 The ink painting then deduces inversely based on the formation pattern to find the place where the magnetism converges.

Some metamagnetic arrays can be distinguished in ink paintings.

"Yeah." Mo Hua nodded, "The complex formation contains multiple single formations, which need to be coordinated and controlled by the core formation hub. The larger the formation, the more obvious the central formation hub is, and the more concentrated the formation functions are..."

 Early stage of foundation building, formations with seventeen lines or above...

“Destroying the center of the formation will cause the Yuan Magnetic Rejuvenation Formation to malfunction, and it will be much easier for us to do things without having to look forward and backward to get in the way..."

"It's not impossible..." Mo Hua thought for a while and said slowly: "We can try to find the center of the Yuan Magnetic Complex..."

 Retreat first and plan for the long term…

 But the formation medium is just a medium, and the formation patterns are just shapes.

The place where the metamagnetic flux converges is the direction of the array hub’s overall control.

 It’s just that this process consumes both spiritual consciousness and time...

Gu Changhuai stood aside, looking at the ink paintings silently, feeling a little confused.

 In his field of vision, ink paintings consist of running east and west, stopping to look at the sky when nothing happens.

Or like a "little spirit dog", sniffing around, and then "seriously" finding a secondary formation and identifying the location of the formation hub...

 But no matter where Gu Changhuai looked, the surrounding buildings were just ordinary buildings without any special marks.

Had he not known, the level of Mo Hua's formation would indeed be extraordinary.

He almost thought that the ink painting was acting with "no real object" and was pretending to deceive him...

 Gu Changhuai was very confused.

After a while, Mo Hua pointed to a path in the outer hall and said decisively:

 “That’s where the magnetism converges.”

 Gu Changhuai finally couldn't bear it anymore and asked, "How can you tell..."

 Halfway through the question, Gu Changhuai stopped.

He knew without thinking that Mo Hua would definitely say: "You can tell it at a glance..."

Gu Changhuai asked in another way: "Why can't I see it?"

 I am a Jindan monk after all, so my spiritual consciousness should be stronger than him.

Mo Hua said matter-of-factly:

“You’re not an array master, so of course you can’t tell.”

 Gu Changhuai: “…”

 He felt that this was not a problem with the formation master, but a problem with the ink painting.

However, Mo Hua ignored him and took the lead, walking along the path towards the confluence of Yuanci.

Gu Changhuai's eyes narrowed, he sighed, and could only follow silently.

 At the end of the path, there is a wall.

 The wall is made of solid stone with strange patterns carved on it and reinforced with formations, but it looks no different from walls elsewhere.

This place is secluded and there is no one around.

 The ink painting was touched and knocked, and the entire wall was inspected inch by inch.

 Then he walked to a wall brick with eyes engraved on it, and stopped to think.

There is something wrong with this wall tile...

The ink painting and the "eyes" engraved on the wall bricks looked at each other for a moment, then he took out the pen and ink, drew formation patterns around them, and solved the earth and stone formations reinforced on the wall bricks.

 Cracks appeared around the entire wall brick.

Gu Quan stepped forward and took off the wall tiles, revealing a dark passage behind.

The passage is narrow, only half a person's height, and there is thick and rough blood and ink inside.

These inks are the traces of the formation hub.

Mo Hua’s eyes are slightly bright.

He guessed right.

Just like when he built the Five Elements Demon-Slaying Formation, since he needs to use the formation pivot to control all single formations, the "trunk" of the formation pivot must connect the inner hall and the outer hall.

At the same time, these formation hubs must be hidden inside the building and cannot be exposed.

To avoid being targeted by "careful people" like myself.

It’s just that no matter how hard I hide it, I still can’t hide it from my witty self...

Mo Hua nodded proudly.

 Next, just follow the vine and find the central control of the complex formation through the "vine" of the formation hub...

The issue is…

Mo Hua looked at the entrance of the cave, turned around and said to Gu Changhuai and the others: "You are too tall, it seems you can't get in..."

Gu Changhuai and the other three had complicated expressions.

They can't deliberately grow shorter just to drill this hole...

Mo Hua sighed, "There is nothing I can do. Let me go in and take a look..."

Gu Changhuai frowned, "Are you going alone?"

"It's okay," Mo Hua said, "This is the place where the formation pivot is hidden. I'm very familiar with it, so there won't be any danger..."

 The center of formation must be kept secret.

Not only cannot outsiders know about it, but even one's own people are prohibited from approaching.

 The buildings near the formation hub will only have some early warning and protection measures when constructing the formation.

 But these measures are not worth mentioning in the eyes of Mo Hua, who has built a large array.

Gu Changhuai said thoughtfully: "You can take Shrinking Bone Pill to shrink your body in a short time..."

 “Shrinking Bone Pill?” Mo Hua was startled.

Is there such a thing?

 There are so many strange things in the monastic world.

Mo Hua thought for a while, then shook his head and said:

“It’s not even possible to shrink the bones. The flow of spiritual energy in the formation hub is chaotic and can easily radiate to the spiritual weapon, causing confusion in the formation on the spiritual weapon and ineffectiveness..."

Mo Hua pointed at the jade pendant on Gu Changhuai's body, "I'm afraid the water hidden jade will be affected and it won't be able to hide..."

Gu Changhuai’s eyes darkened slightly.

 He didn’t expect this…

  After all, he is not an array master and does not have a deep understanding of such subtle formation principles.

 “That’s not right…”

Gu Changhuai suddenly reacted, "Our water-hiding jade is invalid and cannot be invisible. Isn't yours the same?"

"I'm different." Mo Hua said, "I know the art of concealment."

Gu Changhuai opened his mouth and lost his voice:

 “When did you learn the art of invisibility?”

Mo Hua looked innocent, "I always know how to do it..."

 Always will be…

Gu Changhuai looked deceived and was speechless.

 “You didn’t ask me...”

Mo Hua muttered.

Uncle Gu didn’t ask about things like concealment. There was definitely no need for him to tell him...

Gu Changhuai took a deep breath and glanced at Mo Hua, "Then I gave you Shuiyin Jade, why did you just accept it?"

 “There’s a lot more to it...”

Mo Hua plausibly said: "According to my research, concealment spiritual weapons and concealment spells, when used at the same time, can have a double concealment effect, and the concealment effect is better..."

"The Devil's Cave is so dangerous, and I, a young foundation-building monk, am walking on thin ice. Naturally, the more careful the means to save my life, the better..." For a moment, Gu Changhuai felt that what Mo Hua said was very reasonable...

 It’s just that along the way, Mo Hua walked briskly and couldn’t tell where he was “walking on thin ice”...

Gu Changhuai sighed.

 There are bursts of yin energy and green light all around.

 Under the stone corridor, there is thick and fishy rotten water flowing...

 Being in the Demon Palace is not the time to worry about such things.

Moreover, no matter how precious a hidden spiritual weapon is, it is indeed not as dangerous as an ink painting.

Gu Changhuai sighed: "Okay, just be careful..."

 He thought for a while and added:

“After entering, if you are in danger, shout for help and I will find a way to rescue you...”

Mo Hua was a little surprised, nodded and said:

 “Don’t worry, Uncle Gu.”

Now that he has found the formation hub, the danger in this devil's cave has become a little smaller.

Then Mo Hua was alone, ducking into the array pivot passage behind the wall, using his hands and feet together, following the veins of the array pivot, and slowly crawling towards the core of the Yuan Magnetic Array.

 The stone path is narrow and narrow, and the terrain is sometimes gentle, sometimes vertical and steep.

It is also engraved with the pivot of the Yuan Magnetic Formation and some early warning formations.

The ink painting avoids these formations, and at the same time uses the passing water step to attach spiritual power to the hands and feet, and uses spiritual consciousness to pull it against the wall, like a "little gecko", slowly advancing in the formation hub channel.

The magnetic current I sensed before was just a weak water flow.

The current formation hub is like a surging river.

 The flow of spiritual power is very clear.

Mo Hua knew where to go even with his eyes closed.

Following the flow of spiritual magnetism in the center of the array, he walked forward like a gecko painted in ink. After walking for an unknown amount of time, he reached the end of the passage.

 The passage is dim and the formation patterns cannot be seen.

But the ink painting can be perceived with spiritual consciousness. The flow of magnetism converges at the front end, and then coordinates downwards, controlled by a central controller.

And the center of this complex formation is the general formation hub similar to a large formation, which controls the entire Yuan Magnetic Complex Array!

found it!

Mo Hua felt happy.

 There is a little halo at the end.

Mo Hua used his hands and feet to climb to the end, stuck his little head out, and looked down through the gaps in the building.

As expected, there is indeed a secret room down there with the main control array pivot painted on it.

 In the secret room, there are dense formations.

 There is a unified formation plate in the middle, with the core formation pivot painted on the formation plate.

Mo Hua held his breath and used the Five Elements Concealment Technique to the extreme. Then he opened a pair of big, watery eyes and peered down from the gap.

 He saw that there was another person in the secret room.

This man is thin and tall, wearing an elegant and luxurious Xuan robe. His face is deathly pale, his eyes are bloodshot, and his face has deep nasolabial folds.

 similar to the same kind.

As a formation master, Mo Hua could tell at a glance that this person was a superb formation master, and his aura was not correct, and his hands were stained with blood that could not be washed away.

 He is an evil formation master.

 Second-grade high-level evil array master!

Mo Hua felt a little chilled in his heart.

The evil formation master was sitting in the secret room at the moment, drawing a **** formation on his own. After a while, he raised his head and looked at the master control array in front of him, monitoring the movements in the demon palace.

 Occasionally he would pick up the wine glass and take a sip of wine.

 The wine is dark red, with a strange eye in it.

That eye would blink occasionally.

Mo Hua looked a little frightened. He looked at the evil formation master again, and then silently looked away.

 He was afraid of being discovered by the evil formation master, so he didn't look at it for too long.

 After retracting his gaze, Mo Hua began to think silently.

 “What to do next…”

 This evil formation master is in the late stage of foundation building and knows the nineteen-line formation.

Mo Hua originally thought about competing with this formation master, but now it seems that he is superficial.

 The second-grade nineteen patterns are already the ultimate level of a normal second-grade formation master.

He is also an evil formation master, and he will definitely have some evil formation methods.

 Normally, it seems that it is not comparable.

Moreover, this is in the Demon Palace, surrounded by dangers, and there are no conditions for me to compete with him "normally".



 The victory or defeat in a trivial formation can be put aside for now.

 Ink painting pondered for a while, and said silently:

“If that’s the case, then find a way to assassinate this evil formation master first?”

 It seems impossible not to kill.

He is an evil formation master who controls the Yuan Magnetic Complex Formation and monitors everything going on in the Demon Palace.

It is simply impossible to bypass him and enter the inner hall to find the Fire Buddha.

It’s not easy to catch them alive.

Since he controls the Yuan Magnetic Complex Formation, he must be proficient in the Yuan Magnetic Formation. There are many means of communication. If he is not careful, letting him send out messages can easily lead to unintended consequences.

 So, this “stumbling block” must be removed first…

 The formation will not be compared with him.

Although he is a formation master, he is also a monk.

Monks who seek immortality naturally put life and death first.

If you know you can't compare, but you still take risks and force yourself to compete with others, isn't there something wrong with your brain...

Mo Hua nodded.

 Fake battle between formation masters, a showdown in formations.

 In a real duel between formation masters, kill the opponent first.

 Then compare whose formation is better.

 Even if you lose the formation in the end, the opponent also loses his life.

 Make sure profit without losing money!

Mo Hua silently made up his mind:

“Find a way to kill this evil formation master…”

But it seems that I can’t kill him either.

This evil formation master is a late-stage foundation-building monk. His cultivation level is much higher than his own, and he can't make much noise.

Mo Hua thought about it and felt that he didn’t need to do this kind of thing himself.

 “I can’t kill you, but I have ‘bodyguards’…”

Mo Hua then slowly exited from the array hub passage.

While returning the same way, he also released his spiritual consciousness, observed the surroundings, and combined with his understanding of the structure of the Demon Palace, roughly determined the location of the "Privy Chamber of the Magnetic Array".

 Then the ink painting followed the formation pivot passage and returned to the entrance of the outer hall.

Gu Changhuai and the other three were waiting outside. When they saw Mo Hua come back, they were relieved and then asked:

"How about it?"

Mo Hua nodded and said: "I found it! There is a secret room. In the secret room is the formation center controller, and there is also an evil formation master supervising..."

“We need to secretly kill the evil formation master before we can attack the Yuanci Fuxing Formation...”

Gu Changhuai immediately asked: "Where is the secret room?"

Mo Hua said: "I remember the way, just follow me..."

“But before that, we need to discuss how to ‘assassinate’ the evil formation master. We need to do it quickly and not let outsiders discover it..."

Gu Changhuai thought for a moment and said:

"I have a second-grade short sword with a wind blade formation cast into it. It pierces the monk's heart and the spiritual power turns into a wind blade, which can crush his heart in an instant."

Mo Hua nodded.

 Uncle Gu is still very reliable in this kind of thing.

But to be on the safe side, Mo Hua still suggested:

"Uncle Gu, how about... you get some more poison? It's very poisonous, the kind that seals your throat when you see blood. Just apply it on the knife..."

Gu Changhuai looked at the ink paintings silently.

Mo Hua whispered: "I have never done anything like this, just in case..."

Gu Changhuai was silent for a moment, took out a bottle of poison, and rubbed it on the dagger...

This poison is not his, it was seized from a sin cultivator.

 They, Daotingsi, don’t use poison.

 Generally speaking…

Seeing that Gu Changhuai had put poison on the knife, Mo Hua nodded with satisfaction, and then said to Gu An:

 “Brother An, do you have a stick?”

Gu An was stunned, "What kind of stick?"

 “A stick used for beating sap.”

Gu An shook his head, "No..."

 “It’s okay, I have it.”

Mo Hua took out an iron rod as thick as a bowl from his storage bag.

 This is a Qianjun stick, but it is of the second grade.

The first-grade Qianjun stick forged by Master Chen in Tongxian City is no longer useful after the ink painting is established.

So he took the time to spend more than a hundred spiritual stones in Taixu City outside Taixu Gate to buy a second-grade stick spiritual weapon.

Although the shape is different, this stick also has other names.

However, the ink painting is more nostalgic, and at the same time, in order not to forget the original intention and continue to follow the path of "beating the sap", so it was also named "Qianjun Stick".

 On the stick, the second-grade Qianjun formation was also painted in ink.

Mo Hua handed the Qianjun stick to Gu An, "Try it and see if you get it right."

Gu An took it with a dull expression, waved it a few times, nodded slowly and said:

 “It’s still…”

 “Let me tell you, when is the best time to sap...”

 Mo Hua began to teach Gu An the technique of "beating sap", and Gu An was stunned for a while.

After Mo Hua finished speaking, he asked:

 “Do you remember?”

Gu An nodded blankly, "I remember..."

"very good!"

“Also, he is a formation master and has a keen sense of consciousness. You must pay attention when assassinating...”

Mo Hua also mentioned other details of the "assassination" of the evil formation master.

For example, how to avoid being discovered, how to cover his mouth to prevent him from speaking, how to be wary of him using formations, how to prevent him from sending messages with his magnetism...

After getting ready, Mo Hua nodded and said:

"Let's go!"

So Gu Changhuai and the three Dao Tingsi monks, with extremely complicated emotions, followed Mo Hua and embarked on the road to assassinate the evil array master...
