Chapter 1106 -682 Evil God_2
Mo Hua: “But, don’t you know what an Evil God is? How do you know that an Evil God cannot preach?”
Gu Changhuai was stumped by Mo Hua’s question.
He pondered for a long time, feeling that he should not follow this child into obsessing over minutiae, lest he become entangled himself.
Gu Changhuai then said: “You should focus on your cultivation, solidify your foundation, and prepare for Core Formation as soon as possible. Don’t always think about these erratic and supernatural matters, they can disrupt your Taoist Heart and waste your cultivation.”
Mo Hua sighed.
But even if he didn’t think about these “supernatural” matters, he couldn’t break through his Cultivation…
Without “biting” into an Evil God occasionally, once stuck at a bottleneck, even reaching the middle stage of Foundation Establishment would be tough.
"What if… there really is an Evil God?” Mo Hua tried again.
Gu Changhuai really tried to think about it, but the more he thought, the more abstract it seemed.
The term “Evil God” was too alien to him.
In his ingrained knowledge of Tao Cultivation, there was very little about “Evil Gods,” making it hard to imagine what an Evil God would actually be like…
He also couldn’t imagine how an Evil God could possibly manifest in the vast Fifth Grade Qianxue State Boundary…
Mo Hua gave up.
He also tried to see it from Uncle Gu’s perspective and realized it was indeed hard to understand.
It was like a child who’d always grown up in the mountains suddenly learning about the existence of the ocean; their mind would surely be blank.
Mo Hua suddenly remembered, the master had once said.
Only with a sufficiently strong Divine Sense can one see the underlying truths that others cannot, and perceive the essence of all things in the world.
An Evil God must be one of these “unseen” truths.
Ordinary cultivators, if they do not follow the Path of Divine Sense, seem unable to see deities.
Not to mention Evil Gods, even Lord Yellow Mountain, the minor Downcast Mountain God, might be invisible to average cultivators…
Mo Hua compromised and said to Gu Changhuai:
"Yes, I just saw a book called ‘The Top Ten Evil Gods Through the Ages’ in the Book Pavilion. It said that Evil Gods control the Divine Sense of foolish cultivators and even devour humans
Gu Changhuai fell silent for a moment, then couldn’t help saying:
"The taste in books of your Taixu Gate is indeed somewhat unique
Mo Hua didn’t say more.
Sometimes, “ignorance” is a kind of bliss.
It’s just that his own Divine Sense was too strong; sometimes he couldn’t feel bliss.
Mo Hua then remembered something else and reminded:
"Uncle Gu, be careful, someone has set their sights on you
It seems Mr. Jin and others have attributed all the debts of those Sin Cultivators on the list to Uncle Gu, assuming Uncle Gu is the “puppet master” behind everything.
Uncle Gu seemed to have unwittingly become a “scapegoat,” shouldering a massive “burden” on behalf of others.
Mo Hua felt truly sorry.
However, Gu Changhuai was accustomed to it, “Being a Canon of the Taoist Court, one is always watched by many people, a little more or less doesn’t matter.”
Mo Hua still cautioned: “Be careful
"Mm,” Gu Changhuai responded indifferently.
Mo Hua then felt reassured.
Uncle Gu, besieged by debts, unfazed by more, probably didn’t feel burdened by him…
Gu Changhuai pondered for a moment, then told Mo Hua:
"I’ll keep an eye on Crossing River Dragon, and as for Mr. Jin and the Sever Gold Sect, I’ll also pay attention
"For matters like Sect Disciples falling into demon paths and black-garbed human traffickers, don’t get involved; these are murky waters, don’t get yourself trapped
After Gu Changhuai finished, he felt his words were futile; whatever Mo Hua wanted to do, he couldn’t stop him. He added:
"Be careful, and if you find any clues or face difficulties, let me know.”
"Yes, yes!”
Mo Hua agreed repeatedly.
He wasn’t a fool.
Be it black-garbed cultivators or family disciples falling into demon paths, these weren’t issues he could resolve alone; now that he had willing assistance, he wouldn’t refuse.
Their conversation ended there.
In the following days, Mo Hua continued his usual cultivation, practiced Formation arts, and refined his Divine Sense.
His Cultivation gradually increased in a methodical fashion.
Because he didn’t focus on foundation but on speed, his progression in cultivation was neither fast nor slow among his peers.
His Spiritual Power, thicker than when he first started Foundation Establishment, but still a bit away from a breakthrough to the middle phase of Foundation Establishment.
However, besides that, the realm of his Divine Sense was truly challenging.
His Divine Sense was already too strong, far surpassing the realm of early Foundation Establishment, and was stuck at the bottleneck of late Foundation Establishment.
Thus, solely relying on Drawing Formation to refine it, like dripping water eroding a stone, was indeed too slow.
And with his Divine Sense stuck at Sixteen Patterns, his standard in Formation couldn’t improve either.
During this time, Mo Hua could only try to broaden his scope of Formation, learning more about the Five Elements Eight Trigrams Array Formation.
But he had grown tiresome of Formations at Sixteen Patterns.
He really wanted to draw higher than Seventeen Patterns, the High-level Second Grade Formation.
Especially the formations involving the Original Magnet above Seventeen Patterns, which likely involved deeper principles of Yuan Magnetic and more advanced applications of Formation.
Mo Hua was full of anticipation.
But without a breakthrough in his Divine Sense, all were but empty talk.
Yu Er’s nightmare demons were also decreasing.
Yu Er’s complexion was getting better day by day, which made Mo Hua quite happy.
But his own “ration” was diminishing day by day, Mo Hua still felt some regret.
"If only I could ‘feast’ soon
Mo Hua muttered to himself.
Otherwise, he could only wait another year, wait for his own Cultivation to breakthrough, which would in turn expand his Sea of Consciousness, and then he could breakthrough the bottleneck in his Divine Sense.
And the matter of the “Evil God
Others might ignore it, but he couldn’t.
These days, Mo Hua pondered it for a long time.
