Had his divine sense not been exceptionally refined and transformed, his acute perception of divine thought honed to the extreme, he wouldn’t have even noticed that when probing this mystical forest, his divine sense was effectively "seeing" nothing.
The divine sense "sees yet sees not"...
In his divine sense, this mystical forest both existed and yet did not exist.
Mo Hua was inwardly full of awe.
What an exquisite technique.
What a formidable formation!
Mo Hua instinctively wanted to step into the forest to study the Divine Path Formation further. Yet, as soon as he lifted his foot, he hesitated.
"This forest feels dangerous..."
The injured demon cultivator had fled into these woods.
This suggested that the forest was likely its sanctuary.
Such a vast tract of forest and such an advanced Divine Path Formation couldn’t have been created by an ordinary cultivator.
The depths of this forest very likely harbored allies of that demon cultivator.
Birds of a feather flock together.
Anyone associating with a demon cultivator would undoubtedly be other ruthless demon cultivators—or worse.
Their cultivation realms were likely no lower than Foundation Establishment, and perhaps even had Golden Core experts among them.
As a solitary mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, without protection, rashly venturing into the forest would indeed be far too risky.
Mo Hua sighed deeply.
After hesitating at the forest’s edge for a long time, weighing his options repeatedly, all he could do was temporarily abandon his pursuit.
"Such a pity..."
With the Divine Path Formation right before him.
Yet under the current circumstances, he couldn’t afford to recklessly gamble on entering. It was better to retreat and make thorough preparations before returning.
After all, the forest wasn’t about to suddenly sprout legs and run away.
Mo Hua glanced back at the mystical forest wistfully, as though beholding his own private vegetable patch.
"Once I’m ready, I’ll come back and harvest my crops!"
Mo Hua nodded to himself before reluctantly turning to leave.
...
After Mo Hua left, Xun Ziyou watched his departing figure, estimating Mo Hua’s likely trajectory. Once certain that Mo Hua wouldn’t face imminent danger, Xun Ziyou stepped forward into the mystical forest.
