Chapter 1094: The Barbaric Ancient Array

Great Desolate Ancient Characters—how to learn?Where to go to learn?Who will teach me?

Mo Hua frowned, contemplating for a long time, still without a clue.Mister Tu should know.If Mister Tu were still alive, and I were still with him in the blood sacrifice great array, learning things and "working" for him, our relationship would still be in a "friendly period." Perhaps I could indirectly ask him about the Great Desolate Ancient Script.But the problem is, Mister Tu is already dead.This possibility has been erased from the root.

Mo Hua again pressed the bone slip to his forehead, perceiving the content within, still in a fog."Characters" are likely more abstract; if you don't know them, you just don't.Without systematic inheritance, it's fundamentally impossible to know with what kind of mindset the ancient people of the Great Desolate created and recorded these characters.And in the bone slip, there are only obscure ancient character records, no array patterns or diagrams.I don't know where the so-called Barbarian Desolate Ancient Array Diagram is hidden.In this unclear situation, Mo Hua didn't dare to act rashly, afraid that his divine sense was too strong and his actions too rough, damaging the bone slip.The situation was a bit stuck.

"Or, ask Elder Xun?"Mo Hua pondered in his heart.But for the past few days, Elder Xun seemed to be busy with some major matter and didn't appear.Mo Hua was "confined" and couldn't go out temporarily, so he could only stare at the bone slip blankly.

About five days later, Elder Xun finally came to see Mo Hua, checked his injuries, saw that Mo Hua's complexion was much better, his eyes were clear, and his fate pattern was not reversed or chaotic, and nodded slightly.However, Elder Xun's brows were tightly furrowed the whole time, with a look of fatigue.Seeing this, a thought flashed in Mo Hua's heart, and he then asked curiously, "Elder, are you busy with the matter of the blood sacrifice great array?"

Elder Xun was slightly startled, initially not wanting to say more, but thinking that although Mo Hua was young, he was involved in too many major matters, and many of them were closely related to him.Some secrets were harmless to discuss with him.Elder Xun nodded and sighed lightly, "The blood sacrifice great array is a great disaster. Although the disaster has dissipated, the losses caused are still immeasurable, and there are also a large number of aftermath tasks to do—.""The dead cultivators must be buried, and their corpses burned to avoid plague or corpse transformation.""The Dao Court officials, world families, and sect cultivators and disciples who died in the war also need to be comforted.""The lands polluted by evil qi and blood qi must be purified.""The collapsed, deformed, or directly destroyed mountains and rivers also need to be rebuilt.""The damaged array cities must be repaired, and many homeless loose cultivators also need to be settled—."

Killing and destruction are violent things that are sometimes easy to do.But rebuilding after destruction, giving displaced people a place to live, and allowing everyone to continue to survive, these seemingly "ordinary" trivial matters are far more complex and difficult.Moreover, they will inevitably cost a large amount of spirit stones.

Elder Xun saw Mo Hua's tightly furrowed brows and then comforted him, "You don't need to worry about these things. You have done enough, and your merits are also great enough—."Of course, the killing karma is also deep enough.Elder Xun said silently in his heart, then continued to admonish Mo Hua:"You only need to remember not to reveal what you have done, to avoid inviting disaster upon yourself."

"Won't I be suspected?" Mo Hua asked.Elder Xun said, "In this world, there are countless great powers cultivating on earth and hidden world high people. As long as you don't show your head, some strange things will naturally have people to take the blame for you."Perhaps even this Desolate Heaven Blood Sacrifice disaster itself had other divine beings with hidden heads and tails operating in the dark.It's just that everyone is in the game and hasn't seen clearly yet.Elder Xun had a premonition about this.Even Mo Hua was vaguely aware.

"Um," Mo Hua nodded, then suddenly thought of something, "Right, Elder Xun, what about the Sword Discussion Assembly?""Did our Tai Xu Gate win?"Elder Xun was about to open his mouth, but suddenly looked at Mo Hua and instead asked, "This matter—how would it unfold in your original deduction?"

Mo Hua was startled, "Me saying it?"Elder Xun nodded, "You say it first."Seeing Elder Xun's calm gaze, Mo Hua then said, "At that time, when I unleashed that sword strike, there would probably be several situations.""One is that it would directly erase Shen Linshu and their divine senses, taking their lives.""But this situation is not too possible, as they have longevity talismans.""So, this sword strike will most likely only shatter their longevity talismans.""After shattering their longevity talismans, there are still several situations:""One is that Shen Linshu and the others' seas of consciousness would be destroyed, and they would remain in a coma until the end of the Sword Discussion.""Two is that it would reveal their 'original form'—"Mo Hua was silent for a moment, then slowly said:"These heaven's proud ones like Shen Linshu have some unspeakable deeds behind the scenes. They have been to the rouge boat, and their seas of consciousness must be polluted, with evil thoughts from evil gods, which have only been sealed in their seas of consciousness with high methods.""This sword strike, even if it doesn't destroy them, as long as it breaks open their seas of consciousness and lets these evil causes and effects leak out and be discovered by other Feathering True Persons or Cave Void Ancestors, then they will definitely be punished and cannot continue the Sword Discussion.""In the worst case, even if they cannot be destroyed, and their evil thoughts cannot appear, at least shattering their natal longevity talismans will severely injure them.""As long as these four top heaven's proud ones from the four great sects are severely injured, the subsequent heaven character Sword Discussion will be completely decided by me, and the victory and defeat will also be controlled by our Tai Xu Gate."

"In addition, there is another situation—"Mo Hua thought for a bit, then said again, "That is, I shatter the longevity talismans, triggering the Cave Void Dharma Image. The Cave Void Dharma Image will kill me, and as a Sword Discussion disciple, the five grades Lun Dao Mountain great array must protect me and battle the Cave Void Dharma Image.""The battle between a Cave Void level great array and Dharma Image must be earth-shattering, leveling mountains and overturning seas. The entire Sword Discussion field will likely be destroyed.""Therefore, the subsequent Sword Discussion will also have to be terminated.""And if the Sword Discussion ends here, then the final ranking will be determined based on the current results.""Our Tai Xu Gate's early stage results were very good. In the Shura War, most disciples survived to the end, and I was the last survivor of the Shura War. Calculating like this, our Tai Xu Gate's victory points are definitely the most—."

"All the above situations, I have carefully deduced.""The involved causes and effects, and all variables, are probably also under control.""Therefore, as long as I can shatter Shen Linshu and the others' natal longevity talismans with one sword strike, then the name of the final Sword Discussion first place will certainly be our Tai Xu Gate's."

Mo Hua spoke clearly and logically, his gaze sharp and unhurried, explaining all these causes and effects and thoughts.Elder Xun's expression remained unchanged.He looked at Mo Hua, still with a youthful face, eyes as deep as pool water, and the composure of someone who thinks deeply about causes and effects and controls all variables, and a deep emotion surged in his heart.He guessed that Mo Hua had considerations for doing all this.But he didn't expect Mo Hua's thoughts to be so deep.At this age, counting from memory, he had only experienced twenty springs, and yet his thoughts were already so meticulous, his mind like a demon.If he lived another hundred, or even a thousand years, with higher cultivation, stronger deduction power, and deeper insight into causes and effects, what kind of heaven-defying level would he reach?Elder Xun sighed in his heart.Heaven is like chess, and common people are like pieces.And Mo Hua, with this terrifying talent, must be a heaven-born chess player. No wonder Qian Dao's fate and the great earth's Dao essence would gather in him.No wonder that person would take him as a direct disciple.

But Elder Xun frowned."Was it that person who took him as a disciple, which only then allowed Mo Hua to awaken this comprehension and fate?""Or was it because Mo Hua had this comprehension and fate that person would take him as a disciple?""Or neither? Is this really just a kind of coincidence of heavenly mechanism causes and effects?"Elder Xun fell into contemplation.

After a moment, Mo Hua asked, "Elder, did I say it correctly?"Elder Xun was slightly startled, only then coming back to his senses and realizing what Mo Hua was saying. He couldn't help but sigh and nodded, "Almost like this—.""This matter, calculating back and forth, our Tai Xu Gate should be able to secure the name of 'Sword Discussion Champion'.""But this matter is not that simple.""The various great sects and world families of Qian Xue will definitely not agree so easily, especially the four great sects, who will inevitably create many obstacles, both openly and secretly.""Our Tai Xu Gate also cannot stand idly by. The matter of the Sword Discussion will likely require some mediation before a final result is reached.""However, it's still that saying," Elder Xun looked at Mo Hua, with both emotion and gratification, "You have done enough. This matter will be handled by me. You just recuperate with peace of mind and stay away from these storms."

"Um." Mo Hua nodded.Elder Xun was silent for a moment, his gaze slightly sinking, and he suddenly opened his mouth: "That sword strike—"Mo Hua's heart leaped.Elder Xun's old and profound gaze stared at Mo Hua's clear eyes, and he slowly asked in a low voice, "Who taught you?"

"This—"Mo Hua was silent, and after a moment, he sighed.Things had reached this point, and he had no way to hide it anymore.Now, in the Sword Discussion Assembly, under the eyes of thousands, he had already used this move.Others might not know the roots of turning divine sense into a sword and might not be able to see it, but what kind of person was Elder Xun? As soon as this move was revealed, he definitely saw it clearly.Although Old Ancestor Du Gu had specially admonished him not to tell anyone, in the current situation, it was definitely not okay if he didn't say anything.

"It was—" Mo Hua said in a low voice, "Old Ancestor Du Gu—taught me—"Elder Xun's eyelids twitched, thinking that it was indeed the case, and then frowned again: "He has been locked in the Sword Family forbidden ground. How did he teach you?"Mo Hua said, "Every seven days, Old Ancestor Du Gu would break open the void and pull me to the forbidden ground to personally teach me sword arts."

Elder Xun suddenly realized, then was shocked in his heart.This senior brother of his, whose talent was world-shaking, and whose eyes were above everyone else, always taught sword arts, and even if others knelt and begged him, he would often ignore them.There had never been a precedent of him taking the initiative to pull people in front of him and personally teach sword arts.Unexpectedly, after being stubborn for a lifetime, with half his body already in the ground, he instead broke his own rules and "packaged and sent"Teaching others to learn sword.

But Elder Xun subsequently frowned in confusion.The Sword Family forbidden ground and the outer mountain disciples' residence are so far apart, and there is no intersection. How did his senior brother discover this child Mo Hua?He even did not hesitate to use his originally remaining not much cultivation to break open the void, pull Mo Hua to him, and personally teach him sword arts?Is there another cause and effect within this?The most crucial point is that this child Mo Hua has no foundation in the sword Dao at all.Before entering Tai Xu Gate, he probably hadn't even touched a sword.Even like this, his senior brother can teach him?

The more Elder Xun thought about it, the stranger he felt, and then he asked Mo Hua, "This divine—this sword formula, how did you learn it?"Mo Hua found it a bit difficult to say.The process was too complicated.From the cause and effect premonition before choosing a sect, to hearing clues from Huang Shan Jun, to obtaining cause and effect in the blood-colored small fishing village,Then to Old Ancestor Du Gu's transmission of Dao.On this basis, he deduced step by step, pondered step by step, and then according to his objective conditions of weak sword Dao and strong divine Dao,He modified cultivation methods, overcame difficulties one by one during the process, plus the accumulated comprehension and practice over time, as well as various sword arrays, sword styles, and the "big mishmash" of the Severing Emotion Dao.Only then did he barely learn it.In short, it was indeed—difficult to explain in a word, Mo Hua only said, "I worked hard to learn, and I learned it—I just learned it—"Elder Xun was speechless.The Tai Xu Divine Sense Turn Sword True Formula, is this something that can be learned with effort?What kind of "effort" is your effort?Arbitrary effort?

But seeing Mo Hua's complex expression and difficulty, Elder Xun probably guessed that this matter definitely involved many things that were inconvenient to say.Moreover, if his senior brother taught him this sword formula, he would definitely also admonish him not to reveal it to anyone.It was also proper for Mo Hua to obey his senior brother's command.As for displaying this world-shaking sword strike in the Sword Discussion Assembly—this was also for Tai Xu Gate, for the cultivators, inner and outer disciples of Tai Xu Gate, to strive for the Sword Discussion ranking, and to seek the most fundamental sect interests.This is even more reason not to blame him.Not only should he not be blamed, but he should be greatly praised.

Elder Xun thought of this and felt relieved in his heart, simply turning a blind eye to some matters, only solemnly saying, "This sword formula harms others and yourself. Hereafter, unless it is a life-and-death juncture, do not use it lightly.""Especially you now, with deep killing karma and fate that has committed a death calamity, you must not recklessly use divine sense for killing and overdraw your sea of consciousness, otherwise you will provoke baleful qi, your Dao heart will be eroded, and it will easily lead to calamity changes."

Elder Xun's expression was serious.Mo Hua's face was slightly pale, obviously also realizing the seriousness of the problem, and he nodded seriously.Then he suddenly thought of something and asked Elder Xun:"Elder, what about Old Ancestor Du Gu? Is he okay? I haven't seen him for a long time, and he also hasn't come to find me to learn sword for a very, very long time."Mo Hua was a little worried.

Elder Xun was startled, then deeply sighed: "Senior brother, he is originally a remnant candle in the wind, and he has also suffered disasters. He—"Elder Xun stopped talking, wanting to say more but stopping, and finally only said to Mo Hua with a regretful expression, "This matter—you don't need to worry about it.""Oh—" Mo Hua nodded, but still some concern about Old Ancestor Du Gu, with a worried expression.

Elder Xun looked at Mo Hua, his gaze gentle, "You rest well. Remember, during this period, your divine consciousness cannot be consumed in vain, cannot be overdrawn, and you must not harbor killing thoughts.""Okay." Mo Hua promised.

Elder Xun finished speaking, then turned and left.His figure was old, his steps were slow, but his speed was not slow.Seeing Elder Xun's figure about to disappear at the door, Mo Hua's heart leaped, suddenly remembering that he still had an important matter to ask, and hurriedly said, "Elder!"Elder Xun turned back and looked at Mo Hua, "Is there anything else?"

Mo Hua nodded, then told Elder Xun about the Great Desolate Ancient Script.Elder Xun was a little surprised, "Great Desolate Ancient Script? Why are you learning this?"Mo Hua said, "Mister Tu and the secrets of the Great Desolate Evil God involve some ancient secrets of the Great Desolate. I want to take advantage of the free time now to understand a little more and prepare in advance, to avoid encountering the plots of the Great Desolate again in the future and being schemed against by them."

Elder Xun guessed that Mo Hua's words only told half the story. But he had always indulged Mo Hua and did not dig into the root of the matter.Elder Xun pondered for a moment, then slowly said, "The characters involved in ancient records in each state boundary are actually also a kind of Dao cultivation knowledge. Because only 'knowledge' or 'learning' is not valued by most cultivators, its rarity is actually not inferior to some heaven-grade merit laws or Dao law inheritances.""But these characters are also extremely important, and occasionally they still contain great secrets. Therefore, most great sects with foundations will collect some.""Within Tai Xu Gate, there are indeed some ancient script records and interpretations from various clans in the Great Desolate ancient times. But these are all collected in the inner gate's scripture pavilion and are not open to outer gate disciples."

Mo Hua said longingly, "Elder, can I look?"Seeing Mo Hua's thirsty-for-knowledge expression, Elder Xun felt somewhat unable to refuse, then sighed: "I will give you a token. You take the token and go to the inner gate's scripture pavilion yourself to find jade slips to learn from.""However, you must only go to these two points and one line. Besides this cave mansion, it's just the scripture pavilion. You are not allowed to go anywhere else.""You are also only allowed to borrow documents, classics, or jade slips related to the Great Desolate Ancient Script. Do not borrow other things randomly, as it will break the rules.""After you finish learning, remember to return the token—."

Mo Hua was greatly delighted, his eyes shining brightly, and he nodded: "Certainly! Thank you, Elder!"After that, Mo Hua would go to the scripture pavilion every three days.

Tai Xu Mountain is divided into outer mountain, inner mountain, and back mountain.The outer mountain is where outer gate disciples live, cultivate, and attend classes.The inner mountain is where inner gate disciples, teachers, and elders cultivate and live.The back mountain is where the cave mansions of the Vice Head, Head, and various sect old ancestors are located.Within the back mountain are also some sect ancestral graves, ancestral hall tablets, and absolutely secret forbidden grounds and other areas.Generally speaking, outer gate disciples are not allowed to enter the inner mountain, let alone the back mountain.However, Mo Hua is special.To keep a low profile and confidential, and to avoid interference from various forces, the place where Mo Hua is recuperating now is Elder Xun's back mountain cave mansion, as a sect old ancestor.And the place he wants to go is the inner mountain scripture pavilion, which is also an important place in the inner mountain.Of course, it is also impossible for Mo Hua to really "lawlessly" wander around everywhere.The path he takes from the back mountain to the scripture pavilion and back is the one Elder Xun has specified.The scripture pavilion, the back mountain cave mansion, plus one mountain road.It is truly "two points and one line".This is both to prevent Mo Hua from "disappearing" and to guard against him being curious and causing mischief, running around the back mountain, and causing who knows what trouble.Elder Xun did not give Mo Hua any room to exploit.Mo Hua, who had originally planned to "wander around everywhere," also had to give up.He felt a bit regretful in his heart.Of course, learning the Great Desolate Ancient Script is the most important matter. Wandering around the back mountain is something that can be done later; there is no rush.

The scripture pavilion in the inner mountain is the repository of the inner gate's Dao tradition.This is the true core inheritance within Tai Xu Gate.The entire scripture pavilion, compared to the outer mountain's, is not only larger in scale and more ancient in history, but the collected inheritances are also incomparably richer.Moreover, most of the grades are above three.Countless books, ancient scrolls, jade slips, and diagrams are piled up into walls, the four walls magnificent, and you can't see the end at a glance.Mo Hua sighed in his heart, and he could also personally experience the true "foundation of cultivation" of Tai Xu Gate.However, he had no qualifications to look at any of these.He could only look at documents related to the Great Desolate Ancient Script.

Mo Hua remembered Elder Xun's instructions and only looked for literature records related to the Great Desolate Ancient Script among these voluminous books.After finding them, Mo Hua would record them one by one, then go to the inner gate's scripture pavilion elder and register to borrow them.The Great Desolate Ancient Script is profound and abstruse, obscure and abstract.Tai Xu Gate has a long inheritance and the legacy of ancient sects. In the inner mountain's scripture pavilion, there are indeed quite a few records concerning the Great Desolate Ancient Script and some deciphered documents.However, these documents are relatively miscellaneous.Moreover, the annotations concerning ancient scripts are from the hands of different senior cultivators. Each person's understanding is different, and their interpretations also vary.Mo Hua could only patiently endure, record them one by one, carefully compare them, and then combine his own understanding to slowly learn and comprehend—this process was relatively long and mentally draining.Fortunately, Mo Hua is an array master. The array patterns he usually learns, looks at, and practices are more complex and obscure than these characters.Therefore, researching these ancient scripts was instead a different kind of interest for Mo Hua.

Just like this, Mo Hua calmed down, slowly learned, and slowly comprehended. After about half a month, he finally initially glimpsed the door and stumbled upon the deciphering of the first line of the Great Desolate Ancient Script on the bone slip.Mo Hua only took one glance, and his pupils suddenly shrank.Up to now, he finally knew what kind of ancient array he had been searching for for a long time.On the Evil God bone slip, above the Great Desolate Ancient Script, a extremely ferocious array is recorded:"Two grades twenty-four patterns, Barbarian Desolate Ancient Absolute Array—""Twelve Meridians Taotie Spirit Skeleton Array!"
