Immortality Through Array Formations - Chapter 832

Chapter 832: Chapter 600 Water Prison Technique_4

And then, he greeted everyone one by one:

“Senior Brother Feng, Junior Sister Qian, Senior Sister Murong…”

Finally, he saw Mo Hua and was taken aback, his mouth agape, “Mo Hua? How come you’re here too?”

Mo Hua was also surprised.

There was an acquaintance among this group of five!

This person was Senior Brother Shangguan Xu, the one who had led him into the sect.

At this moment, Mo Hua didn’t care why Shangguan Xu happened to be there, he quickly said, “Senior Brother Xu, take me with you!”

He then hurriedly gave Shangguan Xu a look, implying:

Speak some good words for me, let them take me along for the fun!

Shangguan Xu gave a wry smile, “This… what’s going on?”

The gentle woman explained the situation, surprised, “You know each other?”

Shangguan Xu nodded, “Junior Brother Mo, has some connections… with my Shangguan Family.”

He did not elaborate, as the matter concerning Young Master Yu, was not suitable for disclosure to outsiders.

But then Shangguan Xu was troubled once more.

It would be a bit dangerous to take Mo Hua along, but not taking him would mean failing to heed his aunt’s instruction.

In the end, all he could say was,

“Junior Brother Mo… knows restraint in his actions and is quite resourceful, Senior Sister Murong, maybe we should take him with us…”

The gentle woman frowned in thought. Seeing that the sky was already darkening and any further delays would mean insufficient time, she finally sighed and said,

“Alright, but you must be very careful. Junior Brother Shangguan, please look after Junior Brother Mo…”

Shangguan Xu nodded his head.

Mo Hua then assured, “Don’t worry, my Formation Skill is quite impressive, I won’t hold you back!”

The gentle woman felt somewhat helpless.

Very impressive Formation Skill?

A novice cultivator at the initial stage of Foundation Establishment, no matter how impressive, could only be so capable…

However, this mission did not require any highly advanced Formation Skills.

The gentle woman nodded, “Let’s set off.”

Mo Hua nodded repeatedly.

Thus, two senior brothers and two senior sisters, with him as the junior tagalong, set off from Taixu Mountain, traveling via Qingzhou City, toward the Second Grade Diancang State Boundary.

Along the way, Mo Hua subtly inquired and learned the identities of the others.

The tall and handsome brother, with a gentle composure and wearing a gold-red Taoist Robe, was a disciple of Tai’a Sect, named Ouyang Feng.

The woman in the Taixu Gate Taoist Robe, named Murong Caiyun, was a senior sister from Taixu Gate.

The woman dressed in golden-pink, brocade-embroidered Taoist Robe, named Hua Qianqian, was a senior sister from Hundred Flowers Sect.

The Hundred Flowers Sect, located within the Qian Xue State Boundary, was one of the Twelve Streams. All of its sect disciples were female cultivators, and the sect’s inheritance focused on Cultivation Techniques and Taoist Skills suited for women.

Everyone was seven or eight years older than Mo Hua. Although they did not all belong to the same sect, sect disciple interactions were frequent in the Qian Xue State Boundary; hence, they respectfully addressed each other as “senior” siblings.

As for why disciples from other sects were involved in a Taixu Gate mission,

Mo Hua had asked about this too.

The bounty for wanted Sin Cultivators was usually issued by the Taoist Court, not just to Taixu Gate but also to nearby sects that might accept the bounty.

After completing the mission, the reward would be distributed by the Taoist Court to the sect,

which in turn would convert it into Merit Points to give to the disciples.

As they traveled, Mo Hua covertly observed the senior brothers and sisters and discovered they all had deep cultivation, almost certainly Top-Grade Cultivation Techniques, and they were also experienced – clearly, they were seasoned veterans in “bounty hunting.”

Mo Hua nodded to himself, firmly deciding that he must impress them with his “great skill” during this mission.

Only if they witnessed his prowess, would they bring him along for more “fun” in the future!

Only then could he tag along on more missions and earn more Merit Points!

To “mix” in on missions, one definitely needed “connections.”

And that included not only Taixu Gate but getting to know other senior brothers and sisters from the Eight Great Gates, the Twelve Streams, and the Qian State Hundred Doors was important.

Even constructing a Large Formation would require the help of many cultivators to complete.

In this age, having good relationships made things easier.

As for the “Four Great Sects”… best leave that be for now.

He figured they were out of his league.

…

All sects have the same rest days every 10 days: two days off.

Given the tight schedule, everyone had to travel day and night, using their movement techniques, which took them more than ten hours to arrive at the Second Grade Diancang State Boundary.

Diancang State Boundary was a small state boundary within Qian State.

At the heart of the state boundary was Mount Diancang.

The Sin Cultivator they were seeking refuge in Mount Diancang.

Mo Hua had inquired about this Sin Cultivator, whose real name was unknown; he was wanted under the alias “Bald Eagle,” with Mid-Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivation. He was known for his agility and considerable Array Formation Skill.

Bald Eagle had a lengthy criminal record at the Taoist Court.

He had forcibly taken energy from female disciples and committed murders, and even acted as a human trafficker, selling young cultivators as “sustenance” for Demon Cultivators.

The order from the Taoist Court was:

If possible, capture and send to the Taoist Prison to be executed by the Water Prison Technique. If too difficult to capture, execute on sight!
