Mo Hua felt that this matter was shrouded in deep suspicion; despite much thought, he found no clue.
If only he could catch the gray-robed cultivator.
Then everything could break through.
After the battle at Hundred Flower Tower, Mo Hua had almost figured out the gray-robed cultivator’s trump cards.
It would be a lot easier to trap him next time.
On the way back, Mo Hua pondered over his worries, and then he sighed.
These days, his routine cultivation had resulted in a steady increase in cultivation.
But the enhancement of Divine Sense had halted at Thirteen Stripes, proving difficult to make any further progress.
First, it was because there were no formations of Thirteen Stripes for him to learn, which slowed the growth of Divine Sense;
Second, it was because of the Taoist Stele.
Ever since Mo Hua used the Taoist Stele to comprehend the Taoist Meaning, the stele had overloaded, and it had not fully recovered even now.
The amount of formation practice Mo Hua did every day was greatly reduced, and the growth of Divine Sense was also negligible.
At this rate, it was possible that Divine Sense wouldn’t break through Thirteen Stripes by the time of Foundation Establishment.
The slow recovery of the Taoist Stele and the scarcity of First Grade, Thirteen Stripes formations made them hard to find.
Mo Hua had searched for so long yet had come up empty-handed.
Currently, his only lead was to find Instructor Yan.
But where exactly was Instructor Yan?
Mo Hua sighed again.
Bai Zisheng appeared somewhat surprised and asked,
"Mo Hua, are you troubled by something?"
Mo Hua nodded, "The growth of Divine Sense is too slow..."
Without finding Instructor Yan, he couldn’t find the Ultimate Formation; without the Ultimate Formation, he couldn’t temper Divine Sense. And without tempering Divine Sense, he couldn’t Prove the Dao with Divine Sense as Mr. Zhuang had said.
To cultivate the ultimate Divine Sense, to exhaust the possibilities of formations, to aspire to dominate the Great Dao.
Mo Hua’s current Divine Sense was still far from the standard given by Mr. Zhuang.
"How much is your Divine Sense now?"
Bai Zisheng curiously asked.
He only knew that Mo Hua’s Divine Sense was strong, up to the standard of Foundation Establishment, but he had never asked how strong it was.
The Ultimate Formations that Mo Hua studied were ones he had not studied, nor could he possibly learn or even hope to understand.
Mo Hua muttered, "Just twelve stripes..."
Bai Zisheng was taken aback, "How many?"
"Twelve..."
Bai Zisheng fell silent.
Just twelve stripes...
This was almost at the limit of Divine Sense for the early stage of Foundation Establishment.
Generally, with ten stripes of Divine Sense, Formation Masters at the realm of Foundation Establishment can attempt to learn Second-Grade formations.
Most Second Rank Formation Masters also start with Divine Sense around eleven or twelve stripes.
This was the first time Bai Zisheng had heard of a Qi Refinement cultivator managing to possess twelve stripes of Divine Sense.
And it seemed Mo Hua was quite displeased with it.
He acted reluctantly and unsatisfied.
Lucky and still acting coy!
Bai Zisheng felt so annoyed that he couldn’t help but scratch Mo Hua’s head.
Even Bai Zixi, standing by, couldn’t restrain herself and joined Bai Zisheng in ruffling Mo Hua’s hair.
Mo Hua felt somewhat helpless.
But after all, since he was the junior brother, he decided not to fuss over it with his junior brother and junior sister.
After the group returned to the cave dwelling,
Mo Hua took out a Compass Mother Formation Disk.
This disk depicted a Compass Mother Formation.
And the corresponding Compass Child Formations, Mo Hua had inscribed with a technique of fine carving on fine needles made of refined iron.
Mo Hua had given these needles to Bai Zisheng in advance, instructing him to imperceptibly stick them into the gray-robed cultivator’s clothing, or on his body, during their fight. Explore more at empire
In this way, by referencing the Compass Mother Formation, he could determine the child formation’s position, which would allow him to track down the gray-robed cultivator’s whereabouts.
