The Quest for Immortality

Chapter 627: Divine Sense Becomes the Dao (3)

Chapter 627: Chapter 536: Divine Sense Becomes the Dao_3

The Little Five Elements Ghost was startled and quickly said, “I dare not, I dare not!”

It grumbled in its heart.

This little ancestor, how could he neither be soft nor hard, and not make any sense?

Mo Hua’s expression cleared slightly and said,

"You speak first, I will listen and then consider whether to let you go.”

"Under the eaves, people must bow their heads.”

The Little Five Elements Ghost hesitated, sighed, and had no choice but to say,

"This secret, I discovered it by myself, over the centuries, in secret

It glanced at Mo Hua, pointed to the surroundings where Formation Master Wooden Carvings were gathered, Formation Patterns were everywhere, and the Array Plate was expansive, a strict Taoist Field, and said solemnly,

"This Taoist Field, it’s actually a fake Taoist Field

"Hidden within the Shrine, there’s another… a real Taoist Field!”

A real Taoist Field?

Mo Hua clearly didn’t believe it and was about to continue to torment the little ghost with charcoal.

The Little Five Elements Ghost immediately swore and promised,

"Really, if I speak untruths, may my soul vanish, my spirit disperse, and may I die without a burial place!”

Mo Hua was taken aback.

To make such a harsh vow?

He thought for a moment and nodded slightly, “Tell me carefully.”

The Little Five Elements Ghost breathed a sigh of relief and then said,

"This Shrine might seem simple, but it is actually a dwelling of the divine, a repository for Divine Thought, only accessible by Great cultivators with high realms and profound Divine Sense

"How could such a refined Shrine simply be used to teach an Ultimate Formation?”

The Little Five Elements Ghost whispered,

"For the years I’ve been trapped in the Shrine, guarding the Taoist Field, I’ve seen many Five Elements Sect’s cultivators, heard many secrets of the Five Elements Sect, and alone in the Shrine, I’ve managed to find that there are two different Taoist Fields within the Shrine

The Little Five Elements Ghost pointed to the ground, “This Taoist Field we see now is a ‘Skill Transmission’ Taoist Field, which transmits the Five Elements Ultimate Formation

"There’s another Taoist Field

The Little Five Elements Ghost’s voice trembled, “The real ‘Heritage’ Taoist Field.”

"Within the Heritage Taoist Field, there lies the Five Elements Sect’s real inheritance, never shown to others!”

Having said that, the Little Five Elements Ghost sneakily glanced at Mo Hua.

It thought that after saying this, Mo Hua would be overjoyed, excited, greedy, or at least curious…

But Mo Hua’s expression remained calm as water.

He countered, “What is the Five Elements Sect’s real inheritance?”

The Little Five Elements Ghost hesitated and shook its head.

"Have you been to the real Heritage Taoist Field?”

The Little Five Elements Ghost shook its head again.

Mo Hua continued, “You say this inheritance has never been shown to ‘people’, so how do you know about it?”

"Because you’re a ‘ghost’?”

That joke was cold.

The Little Five Elements Ghost couldn’t laugh and simply shook its head.

"Good!” Mo Hua nodded, his gaze turning dangerous, “To save your life, you weave tales, stall for time, and you want to keep deceiving me!”

The Five Elements Sect having the Five Elements Spirit Formation was already quite impressive.

Beyond that, what could there be of this so-called “real inheritance”?

Not even his master had ever mentioned it.

How would this little ghost know about it?

Even if, in a remote chance, there was such an inheritance, this Five Elements little ghost, who knows nothing of formations, would not be able to distinguish it.

It has been sitting on this Taoist Field’s meditation cushion for centuries.

It has seen the “Divine Sense Becomes the Dao” demonstration in the Five Elements Spirit Formation countless times, and still, it’s blind to the process, knowing nothing.

With such a standard, how could it be aware of the Five Elements Sect’s “real inheritance”?

I’m afraid that even if the inheritance were placed right in front of it, it would be as blind as a bat, as if reading a heavenly script, knowing nothing.

This Little Five Elements Ghost, all mouth, and no truth, is useless to keep around.

Murderous intent appeared in Mo Hua’s eyes.

Seeing the look in Mo Hua’s eyes, the Little Five Elements Ghost was greatly alarmed and finally revealed its trump card:

"It’s true, I know the entrance!”

Mo Hua’s gaze hardened, “The entrance to the real Heritage Taoist Field?”

The Little Five Elements Ghost hurriedly nodded.

Mo Hua was non-committal, simply saying,

"Show it to me.”

After a lot of hesitation, the Little Five Elements Ghost finally said helplessly,

"Fine

It walked into the Taoist Field, to the area above the Field, approached the meditation cushion, and then with a slight sigh, picked up the cushion, flipped it over, and laid it back in its place.

"Flip over the meditation cushion and sit on it again, and you’ll see the real Heritage Taoist Field!”

Mo Hua’s eyelid twitched.

This Little Five Elements Ghost might be telling the truth…

Transmission through the meditation cushion, one side for teaching, one for inheriting.

One for Skill Transmission, one for Heritage.

On the surface, it was just an ordinary Shrine, simply another Taoist Field, but within the meditation cushion, it contained its own universe.

Such ingenious planning, truly exquisite and unparalleled…

Mo Hua glanced again at the Little Five Elements Ghost, still keeping his guard up.

The Taoist Field might be real, but he still couldn’t be at ease about this little ghost.

But time was running out…

Although Mo Hua had not calculated exactly, he knew that it had been almost four hours since he entered the Shrine Taoist Field.

Once the time was up, he would have to leave.

Once he left, he feared he would never be able to enter the Formation Pavilion of the Five Elements Sect again.

Mo Hua really wanted to know whether the Five Elements Sect actually had this Heritage Taoist Field…

"Perhaps… just take a look?”

Mo Hua stepped forward, drawing closer to the meditation cushion, but still hesitating.

Just at that moment, a sudden change occurred.

A staggering aura erupted around him.

Mo Hua’s heart tightened, and from the corner of his eye, he saw the Little Five Elements Ghost’s expression change, no longer timid but cold and ferocious.

Its body burst with brilliant five-colored light.

At the same time, its sharp claws lunged straight for Mo Hua’s heart.

Had this Little Five Elements Ghost been hiding its true strength?

Mo Hua frowned, but remained fearless in the face of danger, executing the Water Passing Step. In a critically close moment, he dodged the Little Five Elements Ghost’s lethal claw.

But as he retreated and dodged, one foot could not help but step onto the meditation cushion.

The cushion suddenly exerted a strong suction force, dragging at Mo Hua.

Mo Hua felt as if the world was turning upside down, the scenery blurred and shifting, and then he fell into a void…

His figure also completely vanished from the Skill Transmission Taoist Field.

The Taoist Field was empty and silent.

The Little Five Elements Ghost laughed triumphantly:

"Good!”

"Good!”

"All my acting and enduring in silence has not been in vain!”

It glanced at the spot on the cushion where Mo Hua had just disappeared, sneering:

"No matter how clever and crafty you are, you will be trapped to death in this Shrine Taoist Field, never able to free yourself!”

The Little Five Elements Ghost then rejoiced wildly:

"After centuries, I’m finally going to escape to freedom!”

At that moment, the incense had burned down.

The four hours were up.

The Little Five Elements Ghost hesitated no longer, turning into an escape light, fleeing from the Shrine…

Meanwhile, at this very moment, Mr. Zhuang, who was sitting on the third floor drinking tea for rejuvenation, suddenly opened his eyes.

The Chief Elder rose to his feet, smiling composedly:

"The hour has come; it’s time for me to invite the senior’s disciples out. I wonder how well they have learned

But Mr. Zhuang said, “There’s no rush.”

The smile on the Chief Elder’s face gradually faded. “Senior, what do you mean by that?”

"Nothing much,” Mr. Zhuang replied indifferently. “This tea is quite delightful. Join me for a little while longer.”

The Chief Elder, slightly angry yet hiding it with a smile, said:

"Senior, you’ve already been drinking for four hours. Even if the tea is excellent, surely you’ve had enough?”

"I’ve had enough, but I have a Taoist friend who hasn’t,” said Mr. Zhuang with a slight smile.

"A Taoist friend?”

The Chief Elder was taken aback. Then, shifting his gaze, he noticed that the seat to his right, which had been empty, was now occupied by a dour and wooden-looking old man.

This person was Old Kui.

The Chief Elder exclaimed indignantly, “Mr. Zhuang

But before he could finish, he saw Old Kui lift his head and give him a glance.

That look pierced through to his soul, sending a shiver down his spine, as if he’d been cast into an icy pit.

The Chief Elder staggered a few steps before steadying himself and quickly changed his tone to a polite and mild manner:

"Mr. Zhuang, please, as you wish, there’s no rush, no rush at all

After speaking, the Chief Elder wiped the cold sweat from his brow, still feeling alarm.

He wanted to take another look at Old Kui but didn’t dare; fear swelled within him.

What level of Cultivation did this old man possess…

The Chief Elder was terrified internally but dared not say anything else.

But fortunately, the incense had already burned out, the Shrine was closed, and the Dao could not be manifested.

Those little ghosts, although they stayed inside, wouldn’t be able to learn much.

It didn’t matter much if they stayed a bit longer…

The Chief Elder breathed a sigh of relief, consoling himself.

Mr. Zhuang remained calm on the surface, but his heart stirred, and he began forming gestures beneath his sleeve. After a moment, his eyes widened in surprise.

His young disciple seemed to have discovered something extraordinary…

Mr. Zhuang pondered for a moment, his expression growing serious.

What secrets did the ancestors of the Five Elements Sect still hold back…
