During the journey that followed, Mo Hua would occasionally stick his little head out the window to gaze at the scenery of heaven and earth.He looked amidst the mountains, at the Immortal Cities, and within the ruins of broken temples, searching for any shadows of formations.If there were any signs, he would release his Divine Sense to perceive them.He then immersed himself in calculation.If he deduced the trajectory of the spiritual power in the formation, he would halt the carriage and personally seek it out.He would inquire local cultivators, visit local Formation Masters, or ascend to solitary mountain tops to gaze upon an ancient stele towering above...In this way, with stops and starts, two months passed.Mo Hua indeed found some special formations, even two ultimate formations.But one was incomplete, and the other had only ten stripes, which were simple ones at that, containing rather elementary Taoist meanings.Even without the aid of the Taoist Stele, Mo Hua learned it

And so, we continued our journey, drawing formations as we went, beating up bandits, and feeding Big White. Along the way, we took in the local customs and practices.Several months later, Mo Hua and his companions finally arrived at South Yue City.South Yue City was larger than Tongxian City.Standing on a mountain peak outside of South Yue City, Mo Hua gazed into the distance and roughly estimated that South Yue City was about twice the size of Tongxian City.The city walls were taller but looked somewhat shabbier.The formations on them weren't particularly sophisticated either.Of course, that was from Mo Hua's perspective.The city walls were old and weather-beaten, showing signs of cracking and discoloration.Before entering the city, each person had to pay an entry fee of one Spirit Stone.Not all Immortal Cities charged an entry fee.Tongxian City didn't.And almost half of the cities they passed through on their way didn't either.Even for those that did charge a fee, it was

Situ Fang saw Mo Hua and was full of surprise.After explaining a few words to the arguing cultivators, she managed to get away and led Mo Hua and the others to a quiet teahouse by the road. They ordered a few cups of green tea, some dried fruits, and pastries.Curious, Mo Hua asked:"Sister Situ, are you the Supervisor for South Yue City?"Situ Fang being a Supervisor wasn't surprising to Mo Hua.She wore the official robes of a Supervisor and her cultivation was not weak. Plus, coming from a clan background, it was natural for her to hold the position of Supervisor at the local Taoist Court.What puzzled Mo Hua was why she would be the Supervisor of South Yue City.South Yue City was quite far from Tongxian City. If she was the Supervisor of South Yue City, why would she have gone all the way to Tongxian City to capture evil cultivators?Situ Fang sighed and said, "Clan training, we have to take turns serving everywhere.""Oh," Mo Hua understood.The practices of the Situ Family see

"What is the meaning of this tunnel?" Situ Fang asked coldly.The Lu Family cultivator's face was pale, yet his mouth was firm, "It's a mine, isn't it normal to have caves inside?"But his tone quivered slightly."Let's go in and have a look," Mo Hua said indifferently, paying him no heed.The Lu Family cultivator's eyes flickered with panic, and he quickly stepped in front of the entrance, stretching out his arms to block everyone,"This mine shaft is a secret of the Lu Family's mining operation. Outsiders are not allowed..."Bai Zisheng kicked him directly, sending him tumbling into the hole.Mo Hua nodded and said, "He is a Lu Family cultivator, and he took the lead in going in. We have no choice but to follow."Situ Fang stared at the two in stupor.She thought to herself, these two really are brothers from the same sect...Birds of a feather flock together.Mo Hua boldly stepped into the mine.The others followed him in as well.After entering, Situ Fang silently followed beside

Lu Ming was tormented by Mo Hua and became completely docile.Situ Fang was a bit startled, she kept sneaking glances at Mo Hua on the way back, filled with confusion.Mo Hua seemed so innocent and naive.How could he be so skilled at framing, threatening, interrogating, and coercing...Who taught him all this?The group left the Lu Family’s mine.The ensuing matters were to be handled by the Taoist Court.The cause of the mining cultivator’s death, whether or not he was killed by a cultivator, the identity of the murderer, and the subsequent compensation, all were left to the Taoist Court to deal with.Situ Fang sighed with relief and said to Mo Hua,"Thank you for this time, I’ll treat you to something delicious when I’m free!""Thank you, Sister Situ!"Mo Hua thought for a moment, then quietly said, "Sister Situ, if the Taoist Court finds any clues about the murderer, could you tell me?"Situ Fang slightly furrowed her brows.Investigations by the Taoist Court were usually kept con
