Immortality Through Array Formations - Chapter 826

Chapter 826: Chapter 599: Large Formation?_2 Chapter 826: Chapter 599: Large Formation?_2 Furthermore, if he controlled the Large Formation, did it also imply…

that he could tamper with the “permissions” of Taixu?

Grant himself “authority”?

Or even manually edit his own “Merit Points”?

What about exchanging Sect Treasures, Innate Spiritual Objects, and Divine Thought Sword Techniques at will?

Endless Merit Points to spend for a lifetime?!

...

…

Mo Hua opened his mouth wide.

Evil little thoughts sprouted like mushrooms after the rain, one after another, ceaselessly popping up…

He then shook his head solemnly and said,

“No!”

“I am now a dutiful little disciple of the Taixu Gate, I have principles, and I cannot do things that harm the Sect’s interests or usurp its authority!”

“Greed is a great taboo in Tao Cultivation!”

Yet, his heart still fluttered with excitement.

He couldn’t steal from the Taixu Gate, but…

Mo Hua’s thoughts raced.

If Taixu Gate used this Formation System, it suggested that other Sects in the Qian Learning State Boundary might also use it.

By extension…

Even the larger, older, and more profound Sects with a longer history and deeper foundations likely had a Large Formation that integrated communication, rewards, and promotions all in one.

Even if not a Large Formation, at a minimum it would be a Compound Formation.

The scale may vary, but the type of Formation, framework logic, and underlying structure were bound to be the same.

He didn’t yet know how to operate this Formation,

But with the Taixu Token right in front of him, once his Array Formation knowledge improved, his Divine Sense grew stronger, and his grasp on the Heavenly Secret Calculation became more proficient, he would eventually be able to deduce this entire Formation System…

Mo Hua couldn’t help but feel elated, then pondered,

“I am a disciple of Taixu Gate, I can’t do wrong by them…”

“But other Sects…

I’m not their disciple…”

“Some so-called Righteous Dao Sects don’t do good deeds either…”

“Moreover, in this world exist Demon Monsters, and Evil Sects like Corpse Gate…”

“If in the future, I master this Large Formation…”

Mo Hua’s face broke into a sly smile, and he hummed inwardly,

“All you Sects had better not offend me…”

“Otherwise, if I ever happen upon your Sect Token, you’ll be in for a ‘great fortune’…”

…

Of course, that was still a bit early.

Mo Hua put away his thoughts and began planning pragmatically.

You have to eat your meal one bite at a time, walk the path step by step.

Study the Taixu Token slowly.

For now, he needed to accept Sect bounties, earn Merit Points, exchange them for Formations, and strengthen his Divine Sense.

Once he accumulated enough Merit Points, gained more authority, he would then look at the higher-level Merit Scrolls to see if they contained the Taixu Divine Thought Sword True Art.

And also…

Formations capable of “reversing life and death”…

Mo Hua’s gaze was determined.

He then began to take on tasks.

Remembering Elder Master Xun’s advice, not to aim too high, he started by only accepting “entry-level” tasks.

“Accepting” tasks was a bidirectional affair.

It required Mo Hua to apply, and others to agree.

Within the Taixu Token, one could manifest characters with Divine Sense.

There was a myriad of tasks on the bounty board, densely packed.

If one wished to apply for a task, you’d manifest your name with Divine Sense beneath it.

This name contained some basic information about the disciple.

Including one’s cultivation realm, Cultivation Techniques, expertise in Taoist Skill, and the grade of their Formations, Pill, Artifact, Rune, and so forth.

Exactly which details to show was up to the disciple to decide.

The Cultivator posting the task would consider this information and carefully decide whether to let you undertake it.

Only with mutual agreement could a contract be reached.

Mo Hua, who was a “newcomer” with prematurely accessed Taixu permissions thanks to Elder Master Xun’s influence, even faced setbacks when attempting to accept even just “entry-level” tasks via the Taixu Token.

Watching the Sect gate…

Others wouldn’t have him, saying he was too young, his height and appearance even younger, which could lead to comments about Taixu Gate employing a schoolchild, not a good influence…

Sweeping the Taoist Field…

Mo Hua did sweep once.

The Sect’s steward thought he swept too slowly and, seeing his small arms and legs, didn’t have the heart to let him keep sweeping, so thereafter he simply stopped giving him tasks…

He didn’t know Artifact Refining, Alchemy, or Refining Rune.

The other rewards were even less achievable.

So in the end, Mo Hua could only resort to Drawing Formations.

“If I must draw Formations, so be it…”

Originally hoping to experience other tasks, Mo Hua had no choice but to put aside those thoughts and focus on Drawing Formations.

But he had oversimplified things.

Sect tasks were essentially a kind of “bounty.”

These bounties were issued within the Taixu Gate by other neighboring Sects, the Taoist Court, and other allied forces or individual Cultivators.

Demand generated the bounty.

Others must need your formations for you to draw them.

You don’t get to draw whatever you please.

This in itself was no issue.

Mo Hua was extremely proficient in universal Five Elements Formation and reasonably skilled in the Eight Trigrams Array.

Most of the “bounties” in the Taixu Token for Secondary Stage Initial Grade, and even some Primary Stage above Formation-related tasks, Mo Hua was more than capable of handling, even with “ease”…

But he couldn’t receive any!

The Cultivators offering the bounties didn’t choose him!

Because Formation-related bounty tasks required one to look at the Formation Master’s grade assigned by the Taoist Court.

Those competing with Mo Hua were uniformly “Second Grade Initial Stage,” “Second Grade Middle Stage” Formation Masters…

These Formation Masters, seniors by several terms, while Mo Hua, having passed only the First Grade Formation Master assessment, bore the title “First Grade Formation Master,” and others simply didn’t bother looking his way.
