"Where is the inheritance of the Five Elements Spirit Formation?" The Little Five Elements Ghost sneered, "Arrogant! Do you think I would be afraid of you?" With a flick of Mo Hua’s fingertip, a bright red fireball whooshed out. The Little Five Elements Ghost tried to dodge, but found itself firmly locked in by the Junior Formation Master’s Divine Sense, and unless he could run faster than the Fireball Technique, there was no escaping it. It was hit by the Fireball Technique again. The Divine Sense Manifestation fireball exploded on its body, the flames scorching its flesh. Though the fire was a manifestation of Divine Thought and void of substance, the searing pain felt vivid and real. Time was of the essence, so Mo Hua showed no mercy. One Fireball Technique after another, bombarding the Little Five Elements Ghost without giving it a chance to fight back. It wanted to rush toward Mo Hua, but that meant facing a barrage of fireballs. On the rare occasions it broke free from the suppression of the fireballs, it would be bound by the Water Prison Technique. If it didn’t close in on Mo Hua, it could only be worn down by Mo Hua’s long-range fireball attacks. And the problem was that this Fireball Technique was wickedly effective – fast, accurate, and with formidable power. After about a dozen exchanges, the Little Five Elements Ghost felt utterly disheartened. It realized that it was no match at all. It was just a little ghost. While the one it faced was a "monster." Everyone has their limits, and ghosts were no exception. Only the wise can recognize the situation and act accordingly, and that includes becoming a "sage among ghosts." Thus, the Little Five Elements Ghost, formerly masquerading as the Tao Teaching Elder, fell to its knees with a plop and called out: "Young friend, spare my life!" Seeing that its voice was loud and clear, signaling it still had plenty of energy, Mo Hua didn’t stop the assault, thinking to further deplete its strength. The Little Five Elements Ghost became anxious and hastily elevated Mo Hua in status: "Young man, young master, little ancestor!" "No more beating, please spare my life!" When Mo Hua heard "little ancestor" come out of its mouth, he grudgingly ceased the attack and then repeated: "Where is the inheritance of the Five Elements Spirit Formation?" The Little Five Elements Ghost hesitated unwillingly to speak. Mo Hua didn’t indulge it and sent another fireball hurtling over. Only then did the Little Five Elements Ghost get honest, looking uneasily at Mo Hua’s expression and said: "I...I really don’t know..." Mo Hua showed displeasure, a trace of cold light flickering in his eyes. The Little Five Elements Ghost hastily said: "Little ancestor, truly! I don’t know!" "You’ve been in this Taoist Field for so long, masquerading as the ’Tao Teaching Elder,’ and you don’t know anything?" Mo Hua clearly didn’t believe it. The Little Five Elements Ghost said, "I was just an ordinary ghost, living inside a broken painting, drifting all over the place. Later, I was captured by the old Sect Leader of the Five Elements Sect, who suppressed my malicious spirit and threw me into this shrine to impersonate the ’Tao Teaching Elder’ and deceive cultivators who wanted to learn the Five Elements Spirit Formation..." "Although I’ve stayed in this Taoist Field for a long time, I know very little about formations." "As for the Five Elements Spirit Formation, such a profound Ultimate Formation, I am completely ignorant." "Little ancestor, you must believe me!" ... Stay updated with freewebnovel Mo Hua’s eyes narrowed slightly. This Little Five Elements Ghost spoke flippantly about being a common ghost residing in a broken painting, drifting around... The truth was certainly not that simple. Mo Hua still remembered the first Contemplation Map he saw with the Little Green-faced Ghost in it. That ghost’s lingering memories included transforming from a person to a ghost, then going around misleading cultivators and devouring their Divine Sense. This Little Five Elements Ghost was probably not much different. It definitely hadn’t been short on bad deeds! But the immediate priority was the Five Elements Spirit Formation. Other matters could be settled later. Mo Hua’s expression grew serious. The Little Five Elements Ghost’s demeanor became even more cringing. It didn’t seem to be lying. And what it said made sense. The Five Elements Spirit Formation, a top-tier Ultimate Formation with Thirteen Stripes, would be inscrutable without the right methods. Even if this little ghost spent centuries pondering the formation, it would still be clueless... But if it didn’t know, then where was the inheritance of the Five Elements Spirit Formation hidden? Mo Hua looked around, his gaze shifting, then suddenly asked: "Was this Taoist Field like this when you came here?" The Little Five Elements Ghost nodded. Mo Hua’s eyes narrowed slightly, "Were there also Tao Teaching Elders?" The Little Five Elements Ghost shook his head, "No, there weren’t." "So, when you impersonated a Tao Teaching Elder, the spot you took, there was originally no one there?" The Little Five Elements Ghost felt a tremor in his heart and nodded slightly. Mo Hua then slowly walked to the center of the Taoist Field and discovered a meditation mat on the ground, and the Little Five Elements Ghost had impersonated a Tao Teaching Elder, sitting right there on that "meditation mat." Another meditation mat! Mo Hua’s spirits lifted as he slowly approached, examining it for a moment, he found this meditation mat was almost identical to the one outside the shrine. The Tao Teaching meditation mat! Mo Hua’s eyes shone with a hint of brightness as he sat down on the meditation mat, and then he looked straight ahead, feeling a sudden clarity before him. Everything within the entire shrine came clearly into view. He could even see his Junior Brother and Junior Sister outside the shrine. The Junior Brother appeared bored and slightly worried. The Junior Sister was sitting on the ground, hugging her knees, silently staring at the "herself" whose Divine Thought had exited the body, leaving only her physical form lying flat on the ground. Beyond that, Mo Hua could also see the meditation mat outside the shrine. No, to be precise, the location of the meditation mat. Between reality and illusion, each position of the meditation mat was inscribed with a Formation. This was the Five Elements Spirit Formation, more complete and meticulous in Formation Patterns. Some differed from the Formation Patterns he had already obtained. Mo Hua thought for a moment and then understood. It seemed that this impostor "Tao Teaching Elder" had also tampered with the Formation Patterns, the ones learned from observing the shrine, compared to the true Five Elements Formation Patterns, were erroneous. The purpose was still to prevent others from learning the true Five Elements Spirit Formation. Mo Hua immediately compared the Formation Patterns in his mind with those he saw now, then, applying a slight Calculation with his Divine Sense, arrived at the true Formation Patterns of the Five Elements Spirit Formation. But that still wasn’t enough... The Formation Patterns were still just a form. To paint the dragon, the eyes must be dotted. Mo Hua lacked just that final brushstroke to truly comprehend the Five Elements Spirit Formation. But what was that brushstroke, exactly? Mo Hua frowned. Tao Teaching... meditation mat... Manifesting Formation... Mo Hua’s eyes gleamed, and he immediately manifested a complete Five Elements Spirit Formation on the Array Plate in the center of the Taoist Field. He wanted to discern some clues from it. As he finished manifesting the true Five Elements Spirit Formation’s Formation Patterns, the meditation mat on which he sat suddenly emitted a faint Divine Thought. This Divine Thought was without master or awareness, like a blank, pure Thought Body. This Divine Thought slowly flowed into the Array Plate, merging with the Five Elements Spirit Formation. Above the Five Elements Spirit Formation, five-colored lights suddenly burst forth, dazzlingly bright. Mo Hua was startled. What did this mean? Was this Divine Thought telling him something? Or maybe, was it demonstrating something to him? After pondering for a long time, Mo Hua suddenly looked up at the Little Five Elements Ghost and asked urgently: "Where did you hear those words about the Ultimate Formation?" Seeing Mo Hua deep in thought, the Little Five Elements Ghost tried to slip away, but then Mo Hua asked him this question. Not daring to show any peculiarity, it replied: "From many people..." "Who all?" "The Sect Leader of the Five Elements Sect, Elders, some Disciples chatting idly, and other, qualified Cultivators and Formation Masters who came to learn the Five Elements Spirit Formation..." The Little Five Elements Ghost counted them off one by one. Mo Hua said, "Was there any phrase that came from the mouth of the Five Elements Sect’s past Sect Leader or an Elder?" The Little Five Elements Ghost frowned in thought for a while, then suddenly said, "Yes!" "Which one?" The Little Five Elements Ghost paused, his expression became sober, and he slowly said: "This phrase came from the lips of an Elder of the Five Elements Sect, the oldest and most obscure one..." "He, when alone facing the shrine, once said these words slowly:" "Divine Sense... becomes the Tao!"
