After returning, Mo Hua, in addition to his daily cultivation, devoted all his energy to the Reverse Spirit Array.

In the evening, he would sink into his sea of consciousness and practice the Reverse Spirit Array on the Dao Stele. During the day, he would be in his small room or at the table of the food stall, still drawing the Reverse Spirit Array stroke by stroke.

After about ten days had passed, his divine sense had increased significantly. He could also draw a rough version of the nine-path half-incomplete Reverse Spirit Array, and estimated that he would be able to draw it out completely soon.

As long as he could draw out this nine-path half Reverse Spirit Array, he could go find Mr. Zhuang and ask for guidance on how to draw the Concealment Array.

If he learned the Concealment Array, Mo Hua could rely on array methods to compensate for the shortcomings of his own concealment technique.

As long as he mastered the concealment technique, he would have more room to maneuver when encountering any situation.

He also gave the meal spectrum that Bai Zi Xi had given him to his mother, while pointing to the pastry named “Flower Good Moon Round” and saying:

“Mother, I want to eat this.”

“Greedy again.” Liu Ru Hua pointed at Mo Hua’s nose, her tone somewhat reproachful, but her expression filled with indulgence.

She took the meal spectrum, glanced at it, and then said with some doubt: “Is this what you want to eat?”

Although Mo Hua was not usually picky, she, as his mother, was still clear about his preferred flavors.

This pastry used so many flowers as filling, it would inevitably be somewhat sweet and greasy, probably not something he would genuinely want to eat.

Mo Hua blinked his eyes, “Mother, I want to try something different.”

Sweet, with flowers…

Liu Ru Hua understood a little, and immediately laughed and said: “Okay, Mother will make it for you.”

Although this Flower Good Moon Round was a bit troublesome to make, the ingredients were not expensive. Liu Ru Hua researched it for two days, then understood the method, and steamed a basket of them.

Mo Hua put away the pastries, and when he visited Mr. Zhuang, he brought them to Bai Zi Xi.

Bai Zi Sheng also got a share, which was the rabbit meat he had been thinking about for a long time.

This was what the diners had ordered. Mo Hua asked his mother to make a bit more to save for Bai Zi Sheng to eat.

Under the big locust tree, Bai Zi Sheng ate with great relish.

Bai Zi Xi, on the other hand, still ate with grace and elegance, and was very serious, not noticing several flower petals stuck on the corner of her lips.

Mo Hua looked at her, and originally wanted to remind her, but then discovered that her lips were more beautiful than the flowers. For a moment, he was stunned and forgot to speak.

Bai Zi Xi saw Mo Hua looking at her, and still thought he wanted to eat too. She hesitated for a moment, then took out a piece and handed it to Mo Hua.

Mo Hua was stunned for a moment, shook his head, and said, “You eat.”

He had tasted it before, and the flower fragrance was too strong, and it was also too sweet. Eating more than a little would be greasy, so he couldn’t eat too much.

Bai Zi Xi asked: “Are you sure you don’t want it?”

Mo Hua thought for a moment, and still took it.

A little greasy is just a little greasy, eating one piece is not a problem.

Bai Zi Xi nodded gently. The two of them didn’t say a word, quietly eating the flower pastry under the tree.

After that, Mo Hua continued to learn the Reverse Spirit Array.

Occasionally, when he had free time, he would take out the copy of that map to look at.

He pondered for half a day, but still couldn’t figure out exactly where in Big Black Mountain this map was drawn.

And he didn’t know how the interrogation of the bald head and the one-eyed man went, nor if there were any new clues.

On this day, Mo Hua was still practicing the Reverse Spirit Array at the food stall, when Zhang Lan came to eat again, but his expression was a bit grave.

Seeing Mo Hua, Zhang Lan hesitated to speak.

“What’s wrong?” Mo Hua asked.

Zhang Lan thought for a moment, and still said: “That one-eyed evil cultivator confessed.”

Mo Hua’s eyes lit up.

Zhang Lan sighed slightly. He originally didn’t want to tell Mo Hua.

Mo Hua had already helped them catch the bald head, and this matter was already concluded. The rest was a matter for the Dao Court Division, interrogation, conviction, and execution.

These things were originally unrelated to Mo Hua, but if what the one-eyed cultivator said was true, this matter was probably related to all demon hunters.

Zhang Lan continued: “Regarding the map, the bald head did indeed lie.”

Mo Hua let out a hum, “That bald head, still not honest even at the point of death!” And then asked: “What did the one-eyed man say?”

Zhang Lan’s gaze slightly condensed, “That map is indeed a map of Big Black Mountain.”

Mo Hua’s brows furrowed, vaguely feeling something wasn’t right.

Zhang Lan continued: “There is a rumor among evil cultivators that those with bloody hands, if they have no way out, can enter Big Black Mountain.”

“When did this rumor start?” Mo Hua asked.

“It has been around for a long time. According to the one-eyed man, this saying has been circulating among evil cultivators for almost one or two hundred years.”

Zhang Lan’s tone was slightly heavy, “Only before, few people believed it. Tongxian City is remote, and Big Black Mountain is dangerous, so not many evil cultivators came. But recently, it’s different…”

“Recently, Tongxian City has gradually prospered, scattered cultivators are wealthy, and the number of merchants going back and forth has increased, as has the amount of oil and water. Quite a few evil cultivators have gathered towards Big Black Mountain. That’s why we were able to catch them all at once and get this clue.”

The more Zhang Lan spoke, the more serious his tone became.

If this was truly the case, the biggest trouble in Big Black Mountain was probably not these evil cultivators.

“Those with bloody hands, if they have no way out, can enter Big Black Mountain…”

Mo Hua repeated it once and asked: “Then? What can they do after entering Big Black Mountain?”

Zhang Lan shook his head, “That’s what we don’t know. Or rather, those who know probably haven’t been caught by us yet.”

“The bald head and the one-eyed man don’t know?”

“Yes.” Zhang Lan nodded, “All torture methods were used, and they still didn’t say anything. It’s estimated they really don’t know.”

If these evil cultivators didn’t know, then the only clue is…

Mo Hua’s heart skipped a beat, “That map?”

Zhang Lan slowly said: “I think so too. If we can know the location recorded on the map, perhaps we can know the truth of this rumor.”

“What about the bald head? This map is his.”

Zhang Lan was a bit disappointed, “He doesn’t know either. He did indeed kill and rob to get this map, but he completely doesn’t understand where the location is and how it works.”

“Instead, that one-eyed man said he encountered a strange matter.”

“A strange matter?” Mo Hua furrowed his brow.

Zhang Lan nodded slightly and told Mo Hua about this matter:

“He said that more than ten years ago, he went to Big Black Mountain to rob, but gained nothing. In the evening, wrapped in a single cloth, enduring the mountain wind, he slept on a large tree. He didn’t dare to sleep on the ground, fearing that he would be eaten by a demon beast in his sleep.”

“In a daze, he heard someone speaking.”

“The people speaking, he didn’t know if there were two or three of them. Their voices were low, their throats hoarse, and in the night, it was a bit strange and he couldn’t hear clearly.”

“He was alone, on the large tree, not daring to even breathe. He listened for half a day, only catching a rough idea.”

“This group of cultivators under the trees were also evil cultivators. It seemed they had raped, plundered, and exterminated an entire family of cultivators. After searching and seizing their spiritual stones and family property, they were pursued by the Dao Court Division and had no way out, so they thought of entering Big Black Mountain to escape disaster.”

“Their cultivation was deep, and their words were ruthless. The one-eyed cultivator was afraid, shivering on the tree, until dawn. When he saw no one around, he dared to come down from the tree.”

“Moreover, from then on, he never saw this group of evil cultivators in Big Black Mountain again. This group of evil cultivators, who said they were hiding in Big Black Mountain to escape disaster, truly seemed to have evaporated from the human world, disappearing without a trace…”

As Mo Hua listened, a chill rose in his heart.

If this was truly the case, Big Black Mountain was hiding filth and evil, and the water inside was simply too deep.

Zhang Lan saw that there were still diners around. After a slight pause, he lowered his voice and said to Mo Hua:

“That one-eyed man also heard this group of evil cultivators say one sentence…”

Zhang Lan’s expression was grave, and Mo Hua’s heart felt slightly cold.

“What sentence?”

Zhang Lan pondered for a moment, and slowly said:

“Big Black Mountain’s dense fog can cover the abyss and thickets; at midnight at the third watch, throw a name to ask for the path.”
