And today, the rabbit has literally run into Mo Hua’s arms.
Mo Hua spread out the map, checked against the Compass Mother Formation, and quickly confirmed the location.
It was a small hill at the border between the outer and Inner Mountain, extremely barren, seldom visited by cultivators.
Mo Hua extinguished the lamp, packed up his things, and then left the camp.
Outside, the moonlight was hazy, and the mountain was filled with layers of tree shadows. Everywhere one looked was shrouded in darkness.
Mo Hua closed his eyes and extended his Divine Sense to its limit.
The surrounding area instantly shifted from pitch black to a void of white.
A moment later, Mo Hua opened his eyes and walked towards a direction.
There, a Monster Hunter was carefully searching the mountain.
The forest was dense with the presence of the Mountain God, and the Monster Hunter was completely focused on his search. Suddenly, he felt a small hand patting his shoulder, which startled him so much that his soul nearly leaped out.
Mo Hua quickly “shushed” him and called out, “Uncle Wu.”
Recognizing Mo Hua’s voice, the Monster Hunter calmed down, though his heart still raced.
“Mo Hua, oh my… you scared me to death.”
Mo Hua was puzzled. He had simply walked straight over and patted his shoulder. Could that really be so frightening…?
They’re grown-ups; shouldn’t they be more composed?
Regaining his composure, the Monster Hunter whispered:
“What are you doing here? Didn’t your dad tell you to stay at the camp?”
“I’m looking for my dad,” Mo Hua replied.
“Oh.” The Monster Hunter nodded and said, “Your dad is over by Big Mountain Rock.”
“Thank you, Uncle Wu.”
The Monster Hunter surname Wu looked at Mo Hua with concern and said:
“It’s dark and windy tonight, and the mountains are dangerous. Do you want me to escort you there?”
Mo Hua shook his head, “No need, I can manage. Please go on with your work, Uncle Wu.”
The Monster Hunter nodded, “If you run into danger, just shout, and I’ll come over.”
After thanking him again, Mo Hua headed toward Big Mountain Rock.
After Mo Hua left, the Monster Hunter continued his search. As he searched, a sudden realization shocked him:
“How come there isn’t a single sound when Mo Hua walks?”
It was as if his feet didn’t touch the ground, as though something was carrying him as he walked.
Moreover, why didn’t he notice Mo Hua approaching just now?
Whether it was Divine Sense, breath, or sound, he noticed nothing…
As the cold wind blew through the mountains, the trees made eerie noises.
A chill washed over the Monster Hunter, and he shivered uncontrollably.
“Forget it, I don’t want to think about it anymore. If I do, my soul might really take flight…”
The Monster Hunter shook his head fiercely and refocused his attention, continuing his search.
Meanwhile, Mo Hua was hurrying along using the Water Passing Step.
A faint layer of spiritual power, like water ripples, supported the soles of his feet.
With such a light step, he made no sound, and his speed was also faster.
By the time Mo Hua reached Big Mountain Rock and released his Divine Sense, sure enough, he found his father, Mo Shan, not far to the left.
Mo Shan was also searching carefully when he sensed something, looked up, and saw a small figure approaching him.
“Huar?”
“Dad.” Mo Hua quickly walked up to Mo Shan’s side.
“Didn’t I tell you to stay at the camp?” Mo Shan was a bit worried.
“I know.”
Mo Shan was taken aback, “Know what?”
“I know where the spiritual mine is!”
