Chapter 2145: Chapter 1010: Shi Tiangang (2) Shi Tiangang was blind to the situation. But the spectators could see clearly. Outside the sword arena, above the Fan Tian painting, nearly all the cultivators watching the battle could see clearly. Mo Hua wasn’t using any advanced movement technique at all. His movement technique had always been the most basic Flowing Water Step. However, he added the Concealment Technique on top of the Flowing Water Step! Shi Tiangang pursued, Mo Hua fled, and whenever he couldn’t escape, Mo Hua would dart into the bushes, hide behind giant stones, or dodge behind trees. Using the mountain stones and forest trees to obscure vision, unbeknownst to anyone, he employed the Concealment Technique, vanished from sight, and leisurely circled around, ending up behind Shi Tiangang. He would then remove the concealment, reveal his figure, and continue luring Shi Tiangang to run further away. Speaking of it, it’s not considered clever. It’s just the basic Flowing Water Step coupled with the furtive Concealment Technique. These spectators outside the scene could understand it at a glance. But Shi Tiangang, caught up in the situation, was like a leaf obstructing his vision, buzzing around like a headless fly, unable to see through Mo Hua’s tricks. The spectators were anxious for him. "Concealment Technique!" "Such a simple trick, how come this Shi Tiangang doesn’t understand?" "Being led in circles by the Concealment Technique, such a big figure, really seems like a big shiny fool..." Most of the cultivators were both anxious and angry. Angry at Mo Hua’s cunning, anxious at Shi Tiangang’s incompetence. But some of the Daoist elders watching the battle furrowed their brows. Especially those elders from various sects who had studied the Concealment Technique, used it, and delved into it, seemed pensive after a little pondering. They knew things weren’t as simple as they seemed. It’s not that Shi Tiangang didn’t think of it; it’s that Mo Hua’s use of the Concealment Technique was too unconventional. Normally, cultivators, when activating the Concealment Technique, whether to "enter concealment" or "exit concealment," require a spellcasting time and a "gradual concealment" process. But Mo Hua was different. His speed in employing the concealment was too fast, and the gradual concealment process could almost be ignored; in the blink of an eye, he completely disappeared. Additionally, he used wood and stone to obscure sight whenever he concealed. His use of the Concealment Technique really left no trace. Shi Tiangang didn’t see through it for a time, which was utterly normal. If not for the Fan Tian painting, which illuminated Mo Hua’s every move clearly, even some elders of Daoist Law present might not have been able to discern Mo Hua’s strange little trick on short notice. "This child’s application of magic is truly... transcendent..." "Mm, he is clever-minded, with high perception, inherently talented in Taoist Skill." "Luckily his Spiritual Root is poor, his Spiritual Power is shallow, otherwise... if he truly learned one or two Superior Daoist Magic, accompanied by his absurd Divine Sense, and this magical application understanding, it would be truly terrifying..." "Indeed..." Numerous elders shared their thoughts in secret amazement. Also, an elder asked: "But this Shi Tiangang, how come... hasn’t he noticed something wrong?" "No matter how cunning this Concealment Technique is used, it’s ultimately still a Concealment Technique. This kid Mo Hua, running around hidden, is bound to leave some traces." "Not figuring it out initially is understandable." "After playing hide and seek for so long and still not understanding it, it’s really hard to justify..." Or is it that... the body cultivators of the Vajra Sect are only muscular, with simple minds? Of course, this thought could only stay hidden in their minds; saying it out loud would offend people. Body cultivation from the Vajra Sect are burly fellows with fists larger than sand pots, and they are not to be trifled with. Meanwhile, inside the sword arena. Shi Tiangang’s mind still hadn’t turned around. Because there was one point that the majority of Daoist elders watching from Fan Tian painting hadn’t noticed in the short time. That was, Mo Hua’s Concealment Technique was not just a simple Concealment Technique. But rather, Minor Five Elements Stealth Skill. Minor Five Elements Stealth, merging into the Five Elements, hidden within heaven and earth. This was once an exclusive Ultimate Technique of the Five Hidden Sect, one of the Qian Learning Hundred Gates. However, the Five Hidden Sect had long declined and relocated out of the Qian Learning State Boundary, its whereabouts unknown, possibly even extinct. The only successor, Hidden elder-second, due to villainous acts, ended up in Mo Hua’s hands. Mo Hua smashed his teeth, thus obtaining this Stealth Technique. Mo Hua, with unique advantages, his Minor Five Elements Stealth Skill was probably several times more exquisite than the sect’s own cultivators. With strong Divine Sense, Five Elements Spiritual Root, mastery of the Five Elements Formation, he concealed his aura using the elements of heaven and earth, and, using extensive "reckless" experience from repeatedly escaping danger, honed his concealment technique. Shi Tiangang simply couldn’t detect him. Even if another cultivator of Initial Golden Core came, they might not discern Mo Hua’s Stealth Technique. If Mo Hua truly wanted to escape, he could directly conceal himself, and Shi Tiangang wouldn’t be able to find him. The reason he occasionally showed himself was just to tie up Shi Tiangang, entice him to chase. Thus Xiaoxiao and the others could better slay the other disciples from Vajra Sect. The two kept chasing and fleeing like this in the forest. Several more rounds passed, and Shi Tiangang still hadn’t seen through Mo Hua’s concealment, not even realizing Mo Hua was using a Concealment Technique. But he did sense something off. This Mo Hua’s movements were exceedingly strange, appearing and disappearing like a ghost, suddenly here, suddenly there. Moreover, once his aura vanished. It was hardly a movement technique, but more like a "trick". And he was the one being "toyed" with.
