Even if they betrayed him, it wouldn't matter.
Finding a scapegoat would suffice; the Taoist Court wouldn't make a big fuss...
Lu Chengyun, feeling heavily suspicious, was still somewhat uneasy.
"Should I personally take a look in the city?"
He pondered for a while then shook his head again.
The matter of the Formation of Ten Thousand Corpses still required his attention.
This kind of complex Compound Formation, requiring constant operation, wasn't just set and done; it demanded inspection, maintenance, examination, ensuring that the Formation eye was intact, the Formation Pivot smooth, and the Formation Patterns error-free.
Moreover, the Formation eye of the Formation of Ten Thousand Corpses was constructed by Mo Hua.
Some ideas were ingenious, the circulation of Spiritual Power unique, not as simple as he had initially thought.
Maintaining it was somewhat difficult for Lu Chengyun. Inspecting, identifying errors, and repairing were all time-consuming tasks.
Not to mention other Formation Masters in the Corpse Mine—who would be fortunate if they could even understand it.
Lu Chengyun sighed, somewhat regretting:
"It was too early to kill this gentleman..."
He had no choice but to manage these tasks himself now, too busy to worry about anything else. Nevertheless, he was still not entirely reassured, so he ordered:
"In these days, strengthen the defense, patrol day and night. If there's any abnormality, report it immediately."

The Corpse cultivators acknowledged the command and passed along the orders.
For a while, the entire Corpse Mine went into high alert...
The Taoist Court was fully prepared, and the situation within the Corpse Mine extremely tense.
The great battle was on the brink of breaking out...
And within the sea of consciousness inside Mo Hua's white coffin, the ultimate enemy was about to arrive:
The Ancestor Founder of Corpse Path from the Zhang Family!
During this time, Mo Hua had been fishing non-stop.
Until now, he had drawn all of the Zhang Family's ancestors and elders, along with the disciples, into his own sea of consciousness.
Mo Hua waited at his leisure, first commanding the Iron Corpses to gang up on them. As they fought each other fiercely, exhausted their tricks, and suffered severe injuries, he would step in to finish them off.
The elders were retained, controlled by the Spiritual Pivot Formation.
The disciples were refined to restore the elders' power.
Among them, the strongest was the Chief Elder of the Zhang Family.
With much effort and at the cost of losing two Iron Corpse Elders, Mo Hua finally subdued him.
