The timing wasn't right now, with Lu Chengyun still outside.
Mo Hua exited his Sea of Consciousness, opening his eyes, his mind clear.
Lu Chengyun was still there, contemplating the Contemplation Map, completely unaware of everything that had happened.
There wasn't much change on the Contemplation Map, except that in one corner of the seating area, one of the Zhang Family ancestors was missing.
Mo Hua tried to summarize the battle.
It turned out there wasn't much to summarize.
It was simple—his Divine Thought manifested spells and formations, trapped an Iron Corpse Elder of Foundation Establishment rank, and then slew it.
A combination of spells and formations, seamless and smooth like drifting clouds and flowing water.
The strong overpowering the weak.
It looked like the weak bullying the strong, but in reality, it was the "strong" bullying the "weak".
Everything went according to plan without any twists.
Yet, Mo Hua felt a small sense of satisfaction in his heart.
Without a doubt, his ability for Divine Thought Slaughter was very strong.
The affair with Gui Tao's people was purely an accident.
Gui Tao was unfathomable, with unknown realm and means, not someone who could be judged by common sense.
Apart from him, normal ghosts and ghouls shouldn't be a match for him in the Sea of Consciousness.
He just had to be more careful, that's all.
Silence reigned within the altar.
Having secretly "consumed" an Iron Corpse Elder, Mo Hua was content and didn't plan on making another move just yet. He quietly hid his presence, lurking behind the altar, waiting for Lu Chengyun to leave.
An hour later, Lu Chengyun finished his contemplation, feeling his Divine Sense replenished, his face full of joy.
The Contemplation Map was indeed a treasure for Formation Masters.
After contemplation, it could nourish the Sea of Consciousness, enhance Divine Sense, and also improve understanding of the Great Dao.
Lu Chengyun caressed the Ancestral Master Picture, unable to part with it.
He carefully stowed the Ancestral Master Picture, but upon doing so, he suddenly paused.
This picture... why does it look so correct...
He inspected it carefully again, furrowing his brows.
It seemed like someone was missing from the picture?
"Where did he go?"
Lu Chengyun felt puzzled.
He continued to stare at the picture for a while, still unable to resolve his confusion.
Did he see wrong? Your next read awaits at empire
Or could it be that because he had contemplated it multiple times, it was too often, causing damage to the picture, which is why it wasn't displaying completely?
Lu Chengyun nodded to himself, thinking that must be the case.
This picture was in his possession, only to be seen and contemplated by him.
If there was an issue, it certainly had to be his own.
Lu Chengyun felt a bit of heartache, and then his gaze slightly darkened, a shadow of a sly smile crossing his face, he murmured:
"Looks like I need to find a way to feed someone to this picture..."
