The Quest for Immortality

If the Mysterious Heaven Great Formation were to undergo some unfathomable changes, resulting in unknown accidents, then achieving Foundation Establishment would truly be as difficult as reaching the heavens...

It is quite possible to waste decades of effort...

"I need to think of a method..."

Mr. Zhuang said silently, his eyes flickering with calculating patterns, as the Heavenly secret ebbed and flowed within them. After a long while, he seemed to find a trace of opportunity.

This opportunity was extremely subtle and incredibly dangerous.

But it was indeed graspable.

Mr. Zhuang breathed a sigh of relief, looked up at the sky, and showed a bitter smile.

Man’s plans are inferior to those of Heaven.

Everything was calculated well, but an accident occurred nonetheless...

"I originally thought I could see Mo Hua establish his Foundation and fulfill a wish, but now it seems, I won’t have enough time..."

My journey ends here...

Mr. Zhuang’s gaze was full of sentiment, which then turned into acceptance.

What is destined to come, will always come...

Old Kui watched him silently, his gaze inscrutable before gradually disappearing into the dark.

...

After returning, Mo Hua would immerse himself in the Sea of Consciousness whenever he found the time, unlocking the Mystery Formations one by one.

Although there were many Mystery Formations, he was neither arrogant nor impatient.

But as he solved them, he noticed that these Mystery Formations seemed different from those he had encountered before.

The previous Mystery Formations were "dead," rigid, and would disappear once solved.

Whereas this current Large Formation had Flowing Formation Patterns, it seemed "alive."

Furthermore, vast areas of Compound Formations interconnected with each other, echoed each other, and coexisted in symbiosis.

One had to tackle the Compound Formation to solve a large area at once.

Otherwise, after solving a Single Formation, more Single Formations would continue to be produced.

Mo Hua could only seek further instruction from Mr. Zhuang.

Mr. Zhuang seemed to have been prepared for a long time, handing over a stack of thick Formation Books and Formation Diagrams to Mo Hua, saying directly:

"The Large Formation in your Sea of Consciousness is named ’Mysterious Heaven Great Formation’."

"Remember this name, but don’t speak of it to others."

"These are some records about the ’Mysterious Heaven Great Formation’ and the insights I’ve compiled. Take good care of them, study them thoroughly, and they should help you with solving the Formation..."

Mo Hua felt grateful in his heart, yet he sensed something incongruous.

It seemed as though his master was in a rush to make arrangements for something...

"Master..." Mo Hua said softly.

Mr. Zhuang shook his head, not allowing him to continue, and whispered:

"Go on, study hard."

Mo Hua hesitated for a moment, murmured an acknowledgment, and respectfully left. Yet on his young face hung an indelible worry.

There were certain things he knew.

He knew his master was avoiding someone.

He also knew that his master said that this travel’s destination was the Five Elements Sect.

So, after arriving at the Five Elements Sect and learning about the Five Elements Spirit Formation, what then?

His master had not said.

Mo Hua had speculated about some matters long ago, but not until now did he realize with a shock that even though he was reluctant, what was destined to come would still arrive...

The unease in Mo Hua’s heart grew heavier.

Meanwhile, the Five Elements Sect on the surface seemed tranquil as ever.

That is until Mo Hua met a familiar face.

One day, while Mo Hua was studying Formation techniques with Junior Brother and Junior Sister, leaning over a table, he suddenly heard the faint sound of footsteps. Looking up, he saw at the doorway a gracefully standing woman wrapped in a veil, her demeanor cool and distant.

Mo Hua was startled, then delighted, "Aunt Xue!"

Aunt Xue, upon seeing Mo Hua, smiled pleasantly. Her gentle eyes took him in for a moment before she nodded and said:

"It’s been a while, and you’ve grown taller."

Mo Hua’s face beamed with joy.

Bai Zisheng and Bai Zixi were also very pleased.

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Mo Hua asked in puzzlement, "Aunt Xue, what brings you here?"

"Indeed." Bai Zisheng said, "Didn’t Master say you shouldn’t come along?"

"It was Mr. Zhuang who summoned me here," Aunt Xue replied.

"Master?"

The three of them looked at each other with confusion.

Aunt Xue nodded, "Mr. Zhuang did not allow me to join you, but I couldn’t help worrying about your safety and followed from a distance. Mr. Zhuang knew about it and did not blame me, which was tacit approval."

"I’ve been outside Li Mountain City these days. A few days ago, I wanted to write a letter to Madame, and I saw the ink move without a brush, soaking into the paper, forming a ’come’ character."

"I knew then, that it was Mr. Zhuang’s intention, he wanted me to come..."

"But why did Master summon you here?" Mo Hua was still puzzled.

Aunt Xue shook her head, unclear about the reason herself.

"Has Mr. Zhuang rested?" Aunt Xue asked.

Mo Hua replied, "Master has rested, he’s now having tea."

Aunt Xue nodded and stood up to visit Mr. Zhuang.

Mo Hua and the other two followed.

In the ancient and aromatic dwelling, filled with the fragrance of tea, Mr. Zhuang sat with an elegant and straight posture, sipping the tea Mo Hua had brewed for him.

Upon seeing Aunt Xue, Mr. Zhuang showed no surprise.

Aunt Xue bowed respectfully to Mr. Zhuang, who nodded as a sign of acknowledgment.

Then, Aunt Xue asked softly, "May I know why Gentleman summoned me here, is there an order?"

Mr. Zhuang was silent for a moment, his gaze deep, taking in the sight of Mo Hua and the others before he slowly said:

"Take these three children away..."

"Leave the Five Elements Sect, leave Li Mountain City, and do not come back..." Your next chapter awaits on
