Immortality Through Array Formations-Chapter 1047 - 664 Drawing the Kill

Mo Hua then tried the Letter Token given to him by Uncle Gu.

The characters were dim, flickering on and off.

The Original Magnet obviously delayed; he didn’t know whether the message was sent, but it was evidently better than the Taixu Token.

Mo Hua was a bit puzzled but after a bit of thought, he roughly understood.

The Formation inside the Taixu Token was more advanced but also too complicated. Sending messages was just one of its basic functions, so it was not as effective as the specialized Letter Token.

And the Formation within the Taixu Token was controlled by a core Formation Pivot.

The core Formation Pivot was located at the entrance of the Taixu Gate.

The closer to the entrance, the better the Taixu Token’s Original Magnet signal; once far away, the magnetic flow weakened.

Moreover, they were now outside the state boundary of the Qianxue State; separated by a state boundary, the functionality of both the Taixu Token and the Letter Token would be severely limited.

Whether it could be used was still uncertain…

But no matter what, the message for help still had to be sent out.

So Mo Hua sent the following message:

“Uncle Gu, human traffickers, more than twenty people, in the wilderness outside Xiao Yun City…”

After that, Mo Hua didn’t concern himself anymore.

Asking for help was something to be tried, but not something to rely on too heavily.

Mo Hua asked Hao Xuan, “Which way did Cheng Mo and the others escape to?”

Hao Xuan thought for a moment and pointed in a direction, “They ran towards the hill to the west…”

Mo Hua looked towards that hill.

The night was deep, pitch black; searching that way, one didn’t know how long it would take.

Mo Hua asked Hao Xuan, “How are your injuries?”

Hao Xuan said bitterly, “I can go with you but I probably won’t be able to move my hands, not much help…”

“No problem,” Mo Hua said.

He didn’t need Hao Xuan to take action.

With so many opponents, given Hao Xuan’s Cultivation, acting wouldn’t be of much use.

Just pointing the way would be enough.

The two prepared to set off, but before they did so, Mo Hua wanted to check the two black-clothed Cultivators in the cave once more and search their bodies to see their faces.

He wanted to know the identity of these traffickers who dared to sell Cultivators near the Qianxue State boundary…

The black-clothed Cultivators in the cave had their legs severed by the Gold Blade Formation and were finished off by Mo Hua’s Fireball Technique, their bodies charred.

But Mo Hua’s Fireball Technique deliberately avoided their faces so that there would be a clue left behind.

The light in the cave was dim.

The black-clothed Cultivator lay on the ground, already having suffocated.

Mo Hua came closer, lifted his mask, and his pupils involuntarily constricted.

Under the masking black cloth was a face with rotting flesh, indiscernible in appearance, even the blood was foul and dark.

“This is…”

Mo Hua released his Divine Sense, carefully scrutinizing for a moment, somewhat in disbelief.

“Demonic Qi…”

This black-clothed Cultivator, before death, released his own Demonic Qi, allowing it to spoil his flesh and blood, obfuscate his features, and contaminate his Spiritual Power.

All to prevent being recognized.

Mo Hua quickly went outside the cave.

Another black-clothed Cultivator lay dead outside the cave, killed by the Earth Fire Formation, his body similarly corroded by Demonic Qi, turned into a pile of rotten flesh.

A chill went through Mo Hua’s heart.

This was his first time encountering such a situation…

Dying, then destroying one’s own body, contaminating the Spiritual Power just to not reveal their identity.

But…

Mo Hua furrowed his brows.

Where did the Demonic Qi on their bodies come from?

Why had he not noticed it before?

Hao Xuan ran behind Mo Hua, also seeing the foul appearance of the two black-clothed Cultivators, couldn’t help covering his mouth, and stammered,

“These two… why do they look like this?”

Mo Hua shook his head, he checked their Storage Bags and found that apart from some Spirit Stones, Pills, and common Standard Spiritual Weapons, there were no other clues revealing their identity.

“So cautious…” Mo Hua muttered to himself.

Hao Xuan said, “Then we…”

Mo Hua replied, “Never mind, finding Cheng Mo and the others is more important.”

After all, there were over twenty of those people.

Two dead, and quite a few still alive.

Mo Hua refused to believe that each could destroy their Dao body and conceal their identity before dying…

“Let’s go,” Mo Hua said.

“Okay,” Hao Xuan nodded.

He didn’t understand these matters, but following Mo Hua should surely be correct.

After all, it was Mo Hua who had just saved him.

Hao Xuan still remembered what his parents had earnestly admonished before he joined the Sect:

“Xuan’er, though you have the Heaven Void Ancestor, you are but one of your ancestor’s one hundred and fifty-six great-grandchildren; your ancestor may not remember who you are…”

“Your talent is insufficient compared to some, but more than adequate compared to others, and your nature is not cruel enough, I’m afraid it will be hard to stand out in the Sect.”

“If that’s the case, find a way to ensure a fallback…”

“It doesn’t matter if you can’t learn other things well, just master your movement technique.”

“In the future, when you travel in the Cultivation World, if you encounter danger and can run, then run, if you really can’t escape, just stick closely behind someone reliable, don’t try to act tough on your own.”
