Chapter 270: The Road Between Cliffs

In the evening, Mo Hua practiced the hidden array and the reverse spirit array on the Dao Stele in his sea of consciousness for the entire night.

He was already familiar with the hidden array, so he just reviewed it briefly.

The reverse spirit array was extremely difficult. The complete reverse spirit array required a divine sense of ten patterns, which Mo Hua could not draw yet. He only used it to practice array methods and temper his divine sense.

He woke up early the next day and cultivated for an hour as usual.

Then, he quickly ate breakfast and set off for Da Hei Shan. He crossed the outer mountain, reached the inner mountain, and walked to the edge of the cliff again.

The cliff wall was thousands of ren high, and below it, clouds and mist lingered, seemingly immeasurable.

Mo Hua sat cross-legged at the edge of the cliff, closed his eyes, released his divine sense, and looked down below the cliff.

This time, he had a premonition, so his purpose was clearer, and his perception was more careful.

After a moment, Mo Hua opened his eyes, a look of doubt in them.

There was still nothing.

If he had guessed correctly, these evil cultivators should be using a hidden array to conceal themselves. The most likely place was below this cliff.

But at this time, the cliff was deep and towering, and he couldn't see the bottom.

Within Mo Hua's divine sense perception range, there were no human figures or other special auras.

This was a bit strange.

Not below the cliff? Could it be on the opposite side?

Mo Hua looked towards the opposite side again.

On the opposite side were deep mountains, thick clouds and mist, dense miasma, and a dangerous and unpredictable aura. The miasma fog covered everything below, and he couldn't see the cliff edge.

He couldn't see anything anyway, so it seemed unnecessary to use an array to hide.

"Not below the cliff, not opposite the cliff. Could it be between the cliffs?"

Mo Hua muttered, then probed between the cliffs with his divine sense.

Between the two cliffs, fog, miasma, and the foul gas of the mountain valley were intertwined. For a while, he still couldn't see clearly.

As he looked and looked, Mo Hua suddenly opened his eyes.

There really was something!

Mo Hua was startled in his heart, then closed his eyes again, calmed his mind and concentrated, pushed his divine sense to the extreme, and tried to eliminate the interference of the mountain miasma to perceive with all his might.

Vaguely, Mo Hua finally discovered a path leading to the opposite cliff.

When he perceived what this path was, Mo Hua was shocked in his heart.

This was not a mountain path at all, but a toppled mountain peak!

The mountain peak was slender at the tip and the rock was tough. It had toppled over from the opposite side and lay across between the two cliffs, forming a natural stone bridge.

An array master had set up a hidden array on the mountain peak to cover the traces and had used the natural miasma between the cliffs to blur and confuse divine sense perception.

This mountain peak then became an extremely hidden, unknown secret path that stood on a ten thousand zhang abyss and connected the two cliffs.

Using the mountain rock of heaven and earth as the array medium and the mountain valley miasma as a cover, there was no trace, making it unknown to gods and ghosts.

Mo Hua was shocked in his heart.

Immediately, he thought again in his heart: "This array master is an expert!"

He had only just learned the hidden array, but this array master, who knew how long ago, had already set up this hidden array on the mountain rock. His array level was obviously higher than his own.

Since Mo Hua had learned array methods, except for the profound and unfathomable Mr. Zhuang, this was the first time he had encountered an array master with higher array attainment than himself.

Mo Hua couldn't help but be curious. Who exactly was this array master?

Setting up arrays for evil cultivators and hiding their traces, could he also be an evil cultivator?

Mo Hua felt some pity in his heart. He had learned array methods with great difficulty. Instead of doing something good, he had to assist the tiger and commit such acts of murder and robbery.

What should he do next?

Mo Hua frowned.

Since he had discovered the traces of this group of evil cultivators, he should naturally go and scout the reality.

But Mo Hua couldn't take risks alone.

After all, no one knew how many people these evil cultivators had, what their cultivation was, how evil they were, what intentions they had while entrenched in the deep mountains.

Mo Hua planned to go back first, tell Elder Yu about this matter, and also report it to the Dao Court Division.

With the help of the demon hunters and the Dao Court Division, there would be many people and great power, and then they could wipe out this group of evil cultivators in one fell swoop.

Mo Hua made up his mind and planned to go back first, but when he turned around, he stopped again and frowned.

This way also seemed a bit improper.

Going back to call people, although there would be many people and great power, a group of people entering the mountain would inevitably alert the enemy and make the evil cultivators wary.

They had many people, but what if the evil cultivators had even more?

After all, they had been lurking for two or three hundred years and recruiting evil people everywhere. Their forces were probably not small.

If the evil cultivators relied on the terrain advantage and ambushed them midway, then the Dao Court Division and the demon hunters would probably die many people.

Mo Hua had quite a friendship with the Dao Court Division, and his relationship with the demon hunters was even deeper.

This was something Mo Hua did not want to see.

Moreover, without knowing the reality of the evil cultivators, acting rashly would not have a high chance of winning.

If the evil cultivators escaped, it would be impossible to uproot them completely.

What's more, everything currently was just Mo Hua's guess.

Although there was a seventy or eighty percent possibility, without seeing it with his own eyes, he could not confirm it.

What if it wasn't evil cultivators behind the cliff?

What if it was a recluse expert like Mr. Zhuang, or an eccentric high-level array master?

If he brought a group of cultivators over, it would undoubtedly make enemies.

Mo Hua was a bit tangled.

After thinking and thinking, it seemed that the best way was for him to "take risks alone"...

His divine sense was strong and could detect danger early. He had Perishing Water Step, and general cultivators could not approach him. And now, the most important thing was that he could hide.

He was the only cultivator in Tongxian City who could hide among all the demon hunters.

Using the hidden technique and the hidden array, the hiding effect was stronger than general hidden techniques. Even Foundation Establishment cultivators might not be able to see through if they were not careful.

If the opposite side was a high-level person, they should not bother with a small cultivator like himself.

If the opposite side was really evil cultivators, going over secretly would not alert the enemy.

They killed and robbed without anyone knowing, and he would scout the reality without anyone knowing.

Knowing yourself and knowing your enemy, you will not be in danger in a hundred battles.

Once he scouted the reality clearly, it would naturally be easier to formulate countermeasures.

Mo Hua nodded.

If he took a little risk, the demon hunters or the Dao Court Division could avoid many casualties. This risk was still worth taking.

He would just go over and take a careful look, roughly confirm the situation on the opposite side, and then sneak back.

The evil cultivators on the opposite side might not all be able to discover him.

After all, he didn't learn his hidden technique and hidden array for nothing.

Mo Hua gradually made up his mind:

"First use the hidden technique to sneak over, scout the reality, and then secretly slip back."

This way, he would neither alert the enemy nor take too big a risk.

Mo Hua grabbed a handful of stones nearby, found a tree branch, then opened his storage bag, took out a bottle of spirit ink, and slightly perceived with his divine sense. From a place on the edge of the cliff, he poured the spirit ink down.

The golden spirit ink poured down. After a moment, it seemed to be blocked by something, splashed open, and condensed into a piece of ink mark in the air.

"Indeed, there's a road."

Mo Hua nodded, then casually threw several small stones down again. He confirmed that the stones also fell in mid-air and did not sink into the cliff, then he was relieved.

Mo Hua first activated the hidden array, then urged the hidden technique to hide his figure, and then cast Perishing Water Step. He lightly jumped down from the cliff, jumping into the clouds and mist.

After a moment, Mo Hua's feet were slightly numb, and then he landed on that invisible stone road.

The spirit ink he had just poured down and the stones he had thrown were all beside his feet.

Mo Hua couldn't help but let out a breath.

Although he knew there was a road, actually jumping down from the cliff still made his heart pound a bit.

Mo Hua looked down for a moment, and immediately his hands and feet went soft, and his small face turned pale.

Below the cliff was a ten thousand zhang abyss. If he fell down, his body would be smashed and his bones broken.

At this moment, he seemed to be standing in mid-air, on a ten thousand zhang abyss.

Mo Hua took a deep breath and said in his heart:

"Don't look down, don't look down..."

After that, he mustered his courage, stepped forward, walked forward step by step, and while walking, used the tree branch to carefully probe the road ahead.

In the clouds and mist covered between the two cliffs, on a hidden mountain road, a hidden small cultivator quietly, step by step, walked towards the opposite shore.

For two or three hundred years, the demon hunters had not discovered the hidden mountain road, and at this moment, the evil cultivators also had not discovered the hidden Mo Hua.
