The Quest for Immortality-Chapter 845: Nightmare (2)
He was a full-grown man, how could he possibly wear women's clothing?!
This was preposterous!
When Hua Qianqian saw Mo Hua fuming, she laughed even more joyfully.
After laughing for a while, she set her gaze upon Mo Hua, as if envisioning him in the Brocade Hundred Flowers Robe, looking stunningly beautiful. As he moved, his eyes glimmered with expectation, his face full of anticipation.
Mo Hua felt a chill run down his spine and quickly distanced himself from her, seeking refuge beside Murong Caiyun.
Murong Caiyun sighed helplessly.
After Hua Qianqian got off the carriage, she waved at everyone from afar before turning and walking toward the lush and ever-spring-like Hundred Flower Valley.
Afterward, the carriage traveled a bit further before returning to Taixu Gate.
Murong Caiyun was a senior to Mo Hua and lived in the Female Disciples' Residence, so she bid them farewell first:
"Junior Brother Shangguan, Junior Brother Mo, I'll be leaving now. Once the Taoist Court has finished tallying the Merit Points, I'll transfer them to your Taixu Tokens."
Mo Hua and Shangguan Xu bowed in thanks.
Mo Hua thought for a moment before whispering, "Senior Sister Murong…"
Murong Caiyun looked puzzled, "Is there something wrong?"
Mo Hua then shared his carefully conceived plan he had mulled over the entire journey:
"Next time you take on a mission, Senior Sister, should you encounter a need for stealth and reconnaissance, laying or breaking Formations, trapping enemies with spells, or if there's a situation that requires the amplification of Five Elements Spell…"
"Would you consider bringing me along?"
Taixu Gate's reward missions had numerous restrictions.
Especially for newcomers like Mo Hua, with low cultivation and little experience, the requirements were even higher.
Without taking on missions, one couldn't earn Merit Points.
Therefore, Mo Hua had to figure out a way to join Murong Caiyun in "mixing" in missions.
Murong Caiyun was startled, "Do you… need Merit Points that badly?"
Mo Hua nodded, "I need to earn Merit Points to exchange for Formations."
"But…" Murong Caiyun frowned, "Elder Master Xun has many Formations, doesn't he?"
"Elder Master Xun said I can't violate the Sect's rules. He wants me to be self-reliant, to earn Merit Points myself, and exchange for Formations myself…" Mo Hua explained.
However, he didn't mention that Elder Master Xun had only allowed him to take 'beginner' missions.
Such dangerous pursuits and assassination missions—Elder Master Xun hadn't even considered that Mo Hua would take them on, let alone complete them…
Murong Caiyun nodded slightly.
Indeed, without rules, there can be no circle. Even if she favored a disciple, she couldn't break the rules of the Sect.
This was indeed Elder Master Xun's way of handling matters.
"However, these matters are very…"
Murong Caiyun initially wanted to say "very dangerous," but thinking back to Bald Eagle's tragic death, she suddenly realized…
Dangerous indeed it was.
But as to who the "danger" applied to, that was less certain…
At least for now, Mo Hua was safe and sound, while Bald Eagle was thoroughly chilled in death…
Murong Caiyun's eyes twinkled, and her thoughts churned.
This mission was indeed very perilous.
Bald Eagle's abilities were not to be underestimated.
Especially with the strange Four Symbols Formation tattooed on his head, which, when broken, would merge his flesh with demonic power, increasing his strength tremendously, almost on par with a Foundation Establishment Late Stage Cultivator.
Among the Sin Cultivators and Demon Cultivators she had pursued over the years, few were as powerful as Bald Eagle.
Moreover, Bald Eagle was an expert in Formations.
Without Mo Hua, they might not have made it back safely.
In contrast, Mo Hua was clever and quick-witted, adept in stealth and formations, and possessed strong Divine Sense.
It would have been impossible for Mo Hua alone to kill Bald Eagle.
But if it were about escaping from Bald Eagle's clutches, Mo Hua would have likely found it quite easy.
So, speaking of danger.
The most dangerous was Bald Eagle, the one targeted and then killed by Mo Hua.
Next, themselves.
And Mo Hua would be the last to be in danger…
Murong Caiyun nodded, "Alright!"
Mo Hua was also thrilled, "Thank you, Senior Sister Murong!"
He didn't expect Senior Sister Murong to agree so readily.
Shangguan Xu, standing by, was also surprised.
He thought that for such dangerous matters, Senior Sister Murong would certainly refuse, or at least hesitate a few times.
Murong Caiyun looked at Mo Hua and smiled warmly.
But she kept the most important reason hidden deep in her heart.
The Ultimate Formation…
A Formation that could amplify the Five Elements' Spiritual Power!
Such an Ultimate Formation was extremely rare and seldom seen.
And she had hardly heard of any Foundation Establishment Disciple in the entire Qian Xue State Boundary who could master such a powerful and functional Formation.
This kind of Formation was close to the Innate Origin of the Five Elements.
That feeling of Spiritual Power boiling, spells advancing, might transforming, suppressing Evil Demons and slaughtering far and wide—once experienced, was irresistible.
That sky of dazzling, beautiful, and yet dangerous Five Elements radiance.
Even now, thinking back on it sent Murong Caiyun's heart racing.
Murong Caiyun couldn't help but look at Mo Hua, her eyes shining as if beholding a rare, precious Innate Spirit Treasure that could enhance the power of spells.

"What a pity, I can't carry it around with me…"
Murong Caiyun thought regretfully.
Mo Hua felt that Senior Sister Murong's gaze was somewhat strange and showed a puzzled look…
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Murong Caiyun left as well.
Mo Hua and Shangguan Xu headed toward the Disciple's Residence, chatting about this and that along the way, such as which Elder had the worst temper, which dining hall tasted the best…
In the mountains, there was also some "game," like the golden-feathered chickens raised by the Elder in the back mountain, which could be roasted and were delicious, but don't leave behind any traces…
Because it was forbidden for Elders to privately calculate a disciple's karma.
So occasionally, if you stole a chicken and roasted it,
They couldn't calculate, and thus wouldn't know who the "culprit" was…
