For the first time, Mo Hua deeply experienced the authority and majesty of the Taoist Law and the Taoist Court.Considering the current situation, the Qian Family was traveling light and moving rapidly, while the Monster Hunters, who needed to transport spiritual mines, proceeded slowly. At this rate, they would be caught by the Qian Family before reaching Tongxian City.Elder Yu said, “We need someone to cover our retreat!”Yu Chengyi, Mo Shan, and some Qi Refining Ninth Level Monster Hunters stepped forward.Elder Yu nodded slightly and instructed:“When the time comes, Qian Hong and Qian Zhongxuan will probably attack openly. I’ll hold them off; you guys handle the other Qian Family cultivators. Fight while retreating and don’t engage in prolonged combat. Just delaying them long enough will be enough.”The few who stayed behind nodded solemnly.In this situation, covering the retreat would inevitably mean facing the deadly onslaught of the Qian Family, and with few facing many, it

Qian Hong had never felt such humiliation in his entire life.As the Family Head of the Qian Family, he was always respected and held in high esteem; his demeanor was commanding. But now, he was forced to clear a path through an Earth Fire Formation for a group of Qi Refinement disciples, ending up disheveled and in a wretched state.This appearance seemed to display his incompetence, causing him to feel utterly disgraced!Qian Zhongxuan also felt humiliated, but because Qian Hong was right beside him, looking even more humiliated, he suddenly felt not so humiliated anymore.Qian Hong coughed, forcefully swallowing the fresh blood that surged up his throat, and angrily said to the cultivators of the Qian Family behind him:“What are you waiting for? Chase them now!”Hearing this, the Qian Family cultivators finally set off in pursuit.Qian Hong just heaved a sigh of relief when he suddenly felt an overpowering strength coming from behind. A chill ran down his spine, and he turned arou

Mo Hua visited Mr. Zhuang the following day; after all, he was Mr. Zhuang’s registered disciple, and having been trapped in the spiritual mines for so long without visiting to check in on him, Mo Hua felt somewhat remiss.Mr. Zhuang was still asleep, so Mo Hua played a little Five Elements Chess with Old Kui.After such a long time, the chess skills of the two were still mediocre, without much improvement.However, Five Elements Chess, such a simple game, requires less painstaking effort; it’s more interesting to just play and kill each other’s pieces straightforwardly.Mo Hua and Old Kui were well-matched opponents; they took turns attacking and defending, fighting to a standstill.By the time Mr. Zhuang woke up, Mo Hua was feeling somewhat reluctant to part, but he said goodbye to Old Kui and went to meet Mr. Zhuang.Mr. Zhuang basically took a laissez-faire approach with Mo Hua, allowing him to learn on his own and come to him with questions, and he didn’t say much about it.Before

After Mo Hua had planned the Architectural Formation for the Refinery Shop, he checked it himself and felt there were no major issues.It had all the basic functions. Since they were still considered separate formations, the interaction between them was minimal, so drawing them up wouldn’t pose any problems.Yet, Mo Hua was somewhat unsettled.The construction of the Refinery Shop was of great importance; it related to the Loose Cultivators’ cultivation and life for the next ten, several decades, or even longer. There couldn’t be the slightest negligence.Since he wasn’t completely sure, it would be better to consult Mr. Zhuang.Mo Hua then went to the Forgetful Residence and presented his Architectural Formation plan to Mr. Zhuang for review.Mr. Zhuang’s eyelids twitched at the sight of the densely packed Formation Method Map, but upon seeing that it was just a simple arrangement of Single Formations and Compound Formations, independent of each other, he finally let out a sigh of re

The young monk looked to be about ten years old, with a clean brow and handsome features, appearing obedient and cute. But as he lay sprawled on the ground, covered in dirt, he also looked rather filthy.“Whose child is this, running around here to play?”Master Ban was taken aback for a moment, then quietly walked over to follow the young monk’s gaze and discovered he was looking at the foundation stone below, which seemed to be reserved for Formation Painting.What was a child doing looking at this foundation stone?Master Ban didn’t quite understand and also peered down for a while, noticing nothing but soil and stone, and nothing particularly special. At that moment, he heard the child say:“Is that Master Ban?”Master Ban paused, “You know me?”“Mmm, my name is Mo Hua, Elder Yu sent me here.”Mo Hua stood up and dusted off the dirt from his clothes.But he only brushed the front, his back still had some mud stains—he must have crawled somewhere dirty, and his short arms couldn’t
