Swept by the gaze of Mok Hua, all the demonic entities and evil spirits completely lost their souls, trembling incessantly.

They were afraid of being “eaten” up.

The color of the black water also lightened by a few shades, seemingly having used up all its strength. The pig-headed demon it “gave birth” to was eaten, injuring its foundational energy.

From the black water, a thick and intense anger emanated.

It seemed as if no “person” had ever dared to be so disrespectful to it.

Moreover, this person was still a small child with a childish face and a lingering scent of milk.

But at the same time, a deep sense of apprehension also arose in its heart.

Although eating this small child would be a great supplement, if it consumed too much strength and damaged the main god’s foundation, it would not be worth the loss…

Mok Hua’s heart stirred. Detecting that this puddle of “black water” had sprouted the intention to retreat, his eyes blinked, and his inspiration moved. He then straightened his chest, lifted his head, and put on an extremely arrogant appearance.

Mok Hua’s eyes were full of disdain.

At the same time, he also provocatively licked his lips.

It seemed as if he were treating this mass of black water as a “snack.”

The black water was stunned for a moment, and then it trembled violently, seemingly greatly angered by Mok Hua.

From the black water, an even more intense killing intent was transmitted.

This time, it no longer held back.

The dignity of the main god cannot be violated.

The honor of the main god cannot be profaned.

It wanted to “eat” this half-step divine fetus small child, to offer the most delicious, most devout sacrifice for the awakening of the main god!

In Mok Hua’s sea of consciousness, a sudden chill spread, and foul black water spread, dirtying the ground.

The black water swelled, turning into black mist, surging and boiling.

Before long, the black mist dissipated, and within it, demonic entities proliferated, and ghostly shadows were heavy. Each one was ferocious, terrifying, deformed, and ugly.

And on their chests, all had a mass of black water, like a heart, trembling slightly, using the evil and foul black gas as blood to enhance the power of the demonic entities.

This time, the black water hatched more demonic entities, and they were obviously stronger.

Before Mok Hua could react, the group of demons and hundreds of ghosts rushed forward like madmen, seeming not to want to give Mok Hua any chance to resist, wanting to tear Mok Hua apart and swallow him alive.

Mok Hua frowned, and began as before, dodging with the Flowing Water Step while using his small fist to sneak attack, occasionally using the Water Prison technique to control, or the Fireball technique to finish them off.

But these demonic entities were obviously stronger.

When he struck with a fist, he could only break the bones of the demonic entities, disfigure them, or disable them, but he couldn’t make them explode.

And the arrogance of the demonic entities was even more arrogant.

They were not afraid of death, not afraid of pain, struggling with all their might, only wanting to gnaw off a piece of flesh from Mok Hua’s body.

Mok Hua fought for a while, somewhat tired, his hands and feet also somewhat sore, and could only sigh.

“Body cultivation is so tiring…”

Being fast is fast, but fighting for a long time is also somewhat boring.

With one punch, Mok Hua hit a horse-faced demonic entity’s face askew; with a backhand kick, he broke a wolf demon’s waist; with a backhand hug, he grabbed a cow demon’s horn and threw it with force, crushing a large number of demonic entities…

Seizing this opportunity, Mok Hua used his foot to push off the ground, retreated several steps, and pulled open the distance.

“I’m tired of fighting…”

Mok Hua said faintly, then spread his arms, his pupils instantly turning pitch black.

On his body, his aura instantly changed from innocent and pure to profound and strange.

Strands of pitch-black and strange textures emerged from his entire body, densely weaving together, condensing into a Mok Hua Dao Robe, draped over his body.

The group of demons instantly changed color.

In the black water, a sound of a shrill and angry roar was transmitted, which after twisting, turned into intermittent and frightened human voices:

“Heavenly Mechanism Strange Dao?!”

“You are…”

“Strange…”

“…Exactly who?!”

Mok Hua was too lazy to waste words. His divine consciousness reached its extreme. Strange shadows filled his pupils, and the textures on his Dao Robe were dense.

His divine consciousness tilted out, and in his sea of consciousness, at an extremely fast speed, it instantly condensed into a huge array, covering all the demonic entities, ghosts, and strange beings.

“Li Mountain Fire Burial Array!”

This was a complex array that Mok Hua had designed himself in his spare time. It was above the second grade, with the five elements and eight trigrams integrated. It was born from the fire of the five elements and the Li fire of the eight trigrams, and it used the Gen mountain of the eight trigrams to trap and kill enemies.

This set of complex arrays was created by Mok Hua after receiving guidance from Old Mister Xun, combining his understanding of the Five Elements Slaughtering Demon Great Array with his own attempts to integrate the five elements and eight trigrams array systems.

This set of arrays was very difficult.

In reality, it had various restrictions.

With Mok Hua’s current divine consciousness realm, drawing it was very strenuous.

But in his own sea of consciousness, Mok Hua’s divine thoughts were unrestrained, manifesting the array as he wished, freely and arbitrarily.

Mok Hua wanted to use this set of complex arrays to “stew” all these demonic entities, ghosts, and strange beings in one pot, so that he could “eat” his fill.

The instant the array was formed, the black water detected a hint of great terror.

It had not expected that it only wanted to have a tooth sacrifice, but it actually encountered a monster that could borrow the strange Dao to instantly form an array and had the posture of a half-step divine fetus!

But it was already too late.

Mok Hua’s eyes revealed killing intent, his small hand grasped, and he said crisply:

“Kill!”

Instantly, the Li Mountain Fire Burial Complex Array opened.

Divine thoughts manifested mountain stones, rugged and intertwined, forming a mountain stone prison, trapping all the demonic entities.

Then the five elements fire surged, the eight trigrams Li fire covered the top, the two phases intertwined, like lava, flowing between the mountain stones.

The whole set of complex arrays was like an erupting volcano.

The demonic entities, ghosts, and strange beings were trapped inside the volcano, suffering the burning of the fierce flames and being swallowed by the molten rock.

Their bodies’ skin and flesh were charred black inch by inch, turning into flying ash.

In the boundless fire prison, countless deformed and ferocious demonic entities held their heads and screamed, howling in pain.

And the “embryo” black water was also burned by the fierce flames, evaporating strand by strand, turning into black mist.

After being further refined by the Li fire, it formed a white-green gas.

Mok Hua resided above the Li Mountain Fire Burial Complex Array, looking down from a high vantage point, watching countless demonic entities and various strange ghosts wailing in pain in the array, turning into black ash, and couldn’t help but nod.

“Arrays are still easy to use…”

“Body cultivation is too stupid.”

Occasionally moving fists and feet, stretching “muscles and bones,” and playing around is still okay, but relying on one’s own unskilled martial arts to slay demons and eliminate evil is still too inefficient.

Mok Hua sat down cross-legged.

He wanted to “eat” already!

The Li Mountain Fire Burial Array burned and killed the demonic entities, and at the same time, it also washed away the demonic energy of these demonic entities, refining it into white gas.

Mok Hua then sat at the side, “roasting” and “eating” at the same time.

Strand by strand, his divine thoughts entered his abdomen, continuously expanding Mok Hua’s divine consciousness.

Only after Mok Hua finished “eating,” his divine consciousness realm still stopped at fifteen patterns. Although it was much thicker, it still did not break through.

And the Li Mountain Fire Burial Array, after burying and sending off this group of demonic entities, also gradually disappeared.

All the demonic entities were slaughtered clean.

All the black water was evaporated dry.

Only one remained…

It seemed to have always hidden in the deepest part of the black water, wrapped by the black water, not revealing a trace.

But now that the demonic entities were slaughtered and the black water was burned, it also had to show its true form.

This was a…

Mok Hua narrowed his eyes and looked, “Sheep head?”

A white bone human face, ferocious sheep horns, looking at its size, it wasn’t big, just the height of an average adult cultivator, but compared to those demonic entities, it was quite a bit shorter.

Mok Hua said doubtfully: “What thing are you?”

The bone-faced sheep-horned demonic entity was greatly angered by the words. It didn’t know what it was hissing and roaring. Seeing Mok Hua’s puzzled face, it turned to an awkward and sinister human voice:

“Rude little ghost!”

“Killed some god-slave demonic spirits, and then consider yourself great!”

“I am a performance of the main god…”

“You have offended the main god, your crime deserves ten thousand deaths. If you kneel down and beg for mercy, and convert to my master, I might grant you favor and forgive…”

Mok Hua’s Flowing Water Step flashed, approaching its body, clenching his fist, and punching its face door.

This demonic entity had no power to resist and was directly sent flying by Mok Hua’s punch, like a broken sack, falling to the ground, rolling several times, and then struggling to escape.

Mok Hua stretched out his right hand, condensing into a golden array pattern, locking it in place, and then his small hand beckoned.

A golden chain dragged this demonic entity back to Mok Hua’s front again.

Mok Hua punched it again, sending it flying, then pulled it back again, and punched it again…

After three or four times like this, this demonic entity was then hit paralyzed on the ground.

Mok Hua walked forward, stepping on it, with a face of doubt, “You seem… to be a fool? Don’t you understand the situation now?”

He was already so strong.

The demonic children and magic grandsons it hatched were all buried by his array fire and roasted clean.

Why did this demonic entity not have any sense and was still so arrogant?

Mok Hua kicked it and asked:

“A performance of the main god, what thing? Is it a running dog of evil spirits?”

“The main god, what thing is it again? Is it an evil god?”

The bone-faced sheep-horned demonic entity was greatly angered, “Insulting the main god, you…”

It originally wanted to curse “you deserve death,” but seeing Mok Hua raise his small fist, with a “fierce” face, it didn’t dare to curse it out.

Mok Hua looked at this demonic entity, rubbed his chin, somewhat doubtfully, “You seem… not afraid of death?”

This demonic entity sneered:

“Offering my body for the main god is supreme glory, moreover…”

The demonic entity’s voice was crazy, its eyes showing fanaticism:

“I am a performance of the main god, protected by the main god. My divine thoughts will not die out. You can bully me and insult me, you can hit me and hurt me, but you can never kill me!”

“The main god is immortal, and I will not die!”

Mok Hua was slightly startled, only then realizing that he had punched this bone-faced sheep-horned creature many times just now, but there were no cracks on its bones, and its sheep horns had not broken once.

And the Li Mountain Fire Burial Array, although it burned its black water, did not hurt it in the least.

“Strange…”

Mok Hua’s gaze was like a torch as he sized up this single demonic entity.

Although this demonic entity was arrogant in its words, it still felt a chill in its heart being stared at by Mok Hua like this.

Suddenly, Mok Hua’s eyes lit up, “Sheep horns!”

He reached out to touch the sheep horns on the head of this demonic entity, and then broke them with force, discovering that he actually couldn’t break them.

Looking closely, Mok Hua’s expression was shocked.

“Real…”

Ordinary divine thoughts are essentially like fog.

Mok Hua’s divine thoughts are condensed like mercury.

And the sheep horns of this demonic entity, no, not only the sheep horns, but the entire sheep-horned head bone, were actually close to a “real object,” incomparably firm.

“From virtual to real…”

Mok Hua was shocked.

His expression was seen by this demonic entity. The demonic entity was extremely proud and sneered: “Knowing the main god’s… What do you want to do?!”

Before it could finish speaking, it saw Mok Hua open his mouth and bite on the “sheep horns.”

Unfortunately, he couldn’t gnaw on it.

Mok Hua hit the sheep horns several times again, discovering that he couldn’t break them…

“Indeed, it’s a hard bone head…”

Mok Hua muttered.

The demonic entity ridiculed: “You know it’s just good…”

Mok Hua, however, had a competitive spirit. He was determined to pound this bone head rotten today.

Boil a big bone soup, strong body!

If he could gnaw on this hard bone head, wouldn’t his divine consciousness be stronger?

Perhaps he could directly break through sixteen patterns, or even approach seventeen patterns?

Mok Hua’s eyes showed excitement. Afterwards, in the frightened gaze of the demonic entity, Mok Hua exhausted various methods, first using arrays, then techniques, and then casually hitting with his small fist.

But no matter what, this sheep-horned head bone did not break in the slightest.

Mok Hua’s brows furrowed tighter and tighter.

This demonic entity, however, gradually relaxed.

“Indeed! The main god’s protection is firm and unyielding!”

Even this little monster who could be called a monster is powerless against me.

While being tormented by Mok Hua, the sheep-horned demonic entity instead felt proud in its heart because of its piety and the blessings the main god had bestowed upon it.

It sneered, “Don’t waste your strength, little ghost with the smell of milk still on your lips. You’re just like a straw dog, how can you know the great power of the Great Wilderness Master?”

Mok Hua was a little angry.

He frowned, then suddenly his eyes rolled slyly, and he smiled squinting:

“I’ll show you something good.”

The demonic entity was startled. It would never believe that Mok Hua would truly show it something “good.”

The demonic entity snorted coldly, “Stop playing tricks. In front of the main god, all…”

But Mok Hua completely ignored it. Before it could finish speaking, he carried it by the back of its neck and dragged it to the Dao Stele.

At this time, it was already past midnight, and the Dao Stele could already manifest.

Mok Hua pressed the head of that demonic entity on the Dao Stele and commanded:

“You take a look.”

Although the demonic entity didn’t feel that anything could truly break the main god’s protection, it still had lingering fear towards Mok Hua in its heart, so it tightly closed its eyes and didn’t dare to look at anything.

Mok Hua thought for a moment, then said:

“That main god of yours is a mouse, sneaking around, hiding like a ghost, shameless, without a face…”

“No matter what happens, it hides behind, like a shrinking turtle.”

“No, you said it’s not awake yet, so it’s probably hibernating…”

“Lived for so long…”

“A thousand-year-old king eight, a ten-thousand-year-old turtle. Is your main god a king eight or a turtle?”

The sheep-horned performance was so angry that its whole body trembled. Under Mok Hua’s constant barrage of “sweet words and honeyed phrases,” it finally couldn’t help it.

It fiercely opened its eyes and was immediately stunned.

In front of it, there was a crimson, deathly silent array pattern.

The anger in the sheep-horned demonic entity’s heart instantly dissipated, and boundless fear surged up.

Tribulation thunder…

Tribulation thunder??!

It opened its eyes wide, finding it hard to believe.

What kind of monster was this little ghost?!

How could there be tribulation thunder sealed in his sea of consciousness?!

“You?!”

Before the sheep-horned performance could finish speaking, it saw the thunder pattern flash slightly, revealing only a hint of breath, deriving out a weak thunder flow, and then instantly wiping out its consciousness.

At the same time, its “firm and unyielding” sheep horns, protected by the Great Wilderness Master, and also possessing some kind of “immortal” intent, were instantly wiped out.

Cracks appeared on the sheep-horned head bone.

Mok Hua hurriedly moved it away from the thunder pattern, broke it with his hand, and it broke easily. And from inside the head bone, a strand of pale gold liquid divine thought actually flowed out…

Mok Hua was startled, “This is… Bone marrow?!”

Pale gold bone marrow!

Mok Hua stared at the “bone marrow,” hesitated for a long time, but still couldn’t resist. He dipped a little with his index finger and licked it in his mouth.

It had no taste.

But the texture was very good…

The divine thought it contained was not strong, but after eating it, there was a very mysterious feeling.

As if he, from then on, was completely different from all living beings in the world.

He was a god residing above the nine heavens, his divine power vast, overlooking all living beings.

And all living beings in this world were just ants, just straw dogs.

They were his offerings of three animals…

Mok Hua hurriedly shook his small head, throwing this absurd and strange thought to the back of his mind, and then carefully examined himself.

Only then did he discover that in his divine thought body, at some point, there were actually threads of pale gold blood.

Although it was very faint, so faint that only he himself could notice.

Mok Hua frowned.

“This gold bone marrow, perhaps it is the true ‘god’ thought?”

This strand of “god thought blood,” perhaps it came from the “main god” in the mouths of these demonic entities, the so-called “Great Wilderness Master”?

Why did these demonic entities also entangle with Yu’er?

They… wanted to take Yu’er as a sacrifice?

Mok Hua’s gaze sank slightly.

Vaguely, he always felt that a very big conspiracy was covering Yu’er, the Shangguan family, and even the entire Qian state…

But what it was specifically, he was still completely in the dark.

“Never mind, let’s take one step at a time…”

He should just do what he should do well…

Adhering to the principle of “cannot waste,” Mok Hua drank all the remaining pale gold “bone marrow.”

Anyway, it had been struck by tribulation thunder. Even if there was true “wild god” thought in this “bone marrow,” it had also been wiped out, leaving only pure divine consciousness with some god charm.

It was a great tonic!

Mok Hua held the sheep-horned head bone, drank the “bone marrow” dry, licked the corner of his mouth, and felt satisfied. The trace of pale gold blood in his body also increased by several strands.

By now, all the demonic entities had been eaten clean, their bones crushed, and their marrow sucked.

Having “eaten” his fill and “eaten” well, and it was not early, Mok Hua planned to go out.

Mok Hua exited his sea of consciousness. Just as he opened his eyes, he detected that his body was covered with a soft blanket.

A warm and gentle woman was guarding by his side, with an anxious face. It was exactly Wan Yi.

Far away, there were several elderly cultivators, arguing in low voices about something.

“It must be evil spirits!”

“How can there be evil spirits in the dignified Gu family, guarded by so many great cultivators?”

“You don’t understand…”

“Evil spirits are different from evil spirits…”

An old man snorted coldly, “Pretending to be mysterious. I’ve lived for several hundred years, what haven’t I encountered? How can there be ‘evil spirits you can’t see’?”

“It’s not ‘can’t see,’ it’s that your divine consciousness can’t perceive it…”

“Absurd! Golden Core, Feather Transformation divine consciousness, still can’t perceive it?”

“Talking to a cow playing a lute, I can’t get through to you…”

“…Heavenly machine karma…”

“Then this child…”

“Cultivation gone awry…”

“What nonsense?”

“…It must be evil spirits invading, injuring the sea of consciousness, invading the divine intellect. Look at the darkness on his seal hall, his face is overcast, in a coma and not waking up. If not treated early, I fear it will be ominous…”

That person’s words reached halfway, and suddenly choked.

Because he saw Mok Hua wake up…

The other people were also stunned, unable to speak.

Only Wen Ren Wan, who was full of worry, showed joy, “Mok Hua, are you alright…”

Mok Hua nodded, “I’m fine.”

Wen Ren Wan hesitated for a moment and asked in a low voice:

“Just now…”

Mok Hua said: “I just had a nightmare. A group of demonic entities and strange ghosts entered my dream and wanted to eat me, but they were no match for me. I killed them all!”

Wen Ren Wan’s expression was complex, not knowing what to say.

The elders on the side also had various expressions.

Some were expressionless, only treating Mok Hua’s words as dream talk; some shook their heads with a wry smile, treating Mok Hua’s words as “childish talk”; and some had a ridiculing expression, feeling that Mok Hua was talking nonsense.

No one felt that what Mok Hua said was actually the truth…

Mok Hua saw their expressions and felt a bit helpless.

No way, these days, no one believes you when you tell the truth.

Wen Ren Wan still said worriedly:

“You… Are you really okay…”

Mok Hua smiled, “Don’t worry, Wan Yi, and besides…”

He turned his head, looked at Yu’er lying on the bed, whose brows were relaxed and expression was peaceful, and said softly:

“…Yu’er also had a good sleep…”

Wen Ren Wan was startled, and then also looked at Yu’er. Her expression was gentle, soft and beautiful like water, and the stone that had always been hanging in her heart also gently fell.

“Yes, Yu’er finally… had a good sleep…”

She looked at Mok Hua again, her gaze grateful.

The crowd still guarded by Yu’er’s side.

Mok Hua’s matter was alarming but not dangerous. They also couldn’t see any clues, so they no longer asked.

Only a few elders looked at Mok Hua with focused gazes, as if they were thinking.

The sky gradually brightened, the morning glow filled the sky, and sprinkled in through the window.

Yu’er slowly opened his eyes, his eyes a little hazy. Then he remembered something and immediately turned his head, seeing that Mok Hua was indeed accompanying him.

A brilliant smile appeared on Yu’er’s face.

Mok Hua also smiled gently.

Yu’er slept soundly all night, his complexion was much better, and he also had an appetite for food. After eating a few mouthfuls, he would raise his head to look at Mok Hua, then narrow his eyes and smile.

As if staying by Mok Hua’s side was very reassuring.

Mok Hua didn’t draw arrays, but spent time accompanying Yu’er and playing for a long time.

In the evening, Mok Hua guarded by Yu’er’s side again.

This evening was calm and peaceful.

Mok Hua was both relieved and somewhat regretful.

He was relieved that Yu’er could have a good sleep again.

He was regretful that his divine consciousness’s “food” was gone…

And little Yu’er slept sweetly again all night, his spirit was better, and his complexion was not that pale.

But the next day, Mok Hua still had to return to the sect.

The holiday was only two days in total.

Yu’er drooped his small head, somewhat reluctant, and always sent Mok Hua to the door.

Mok Hua promised him that he would come to see him again when he was free, and Yu’er was a little happier then.

Wen Ren Wan sent Mok Hua many good things to eat, as well as some array books and ink, to show her gratitude. But it was also as if she had something on her mind. She hesitated for a long time before slowly opening her mouth:

“Mok Hua…”

But she didn’t know how to say it.

Mok Hua knew what Wen Ren Wan was worried about, so he smiled and said:

“Wan Yi, if Yu’er has nightmares again, I’ll come to see him again…”

Wen Ren Wan was startled, and then relaxed her breath, looking at Mok Hua, her gaze even more grateful.

Afterwards, Mok Hua rode the Gu family’s carriage back to Tai Xu Gate.

After returning to the sect, he spent two days refining and absorbing a group of demonic entities, strange ghosts, and the evil thoughts of that sheep-horned performance.

Then he sat in meditation, consolidating his Dao heart a little.

Mok Hua’s divine consciousness finally broke through its realm, reaching sixteen patterns!

Sixteen patterns is the limit of divine consciousness in the mid-Foundation Establishment stage.

Seventeen patterns is divine consciousness in the late Foundation Establishment stage.

From sixteen patterns to seventeen patterns, there is a thick barrier separating them, not so easy to break through.

But Mok Hua was not anxious. His current divine consciousness realm was already very high, and he could settle down a bit.

And reaching the sixteen-pattern realm, he then had enough divine consciousness to learn that Dao, the second-grade sixteen-pattern “Beacon Fire Yuan Magnetic Array”!

But the problem now was that his merit points were not enough to exchange for the array map.

“I need to work hard, save more merit points…”

Mok Hua then went to beg Senior Sister Murong.

Murong Cai Yun thought for a moment, then said: “There is indeed a task, not difficult, and the merit points are not too many, estimated to be only eighty points or so. If you want to go, you can go together.”

Mok Hua nodded repeatedly, smiling:

“Thank you, Senior Sister Murong!”

Eighty points or so is not a small amount.

It’s much better than drawing a first-grade array by himself.

Murong Cai Yun said gently: “The location of this task is in Bi Shan city outside the Qian Xue state border. The mountains there are steep, and there are many mountains and rivers of various sizes around…”

“The specific map and task information, I will send them to you.”

“You can look at it in the Tai Xu Order when you’re free…”

“Okay, okay!” Mok Hua nodded repeatedly.

Bi Shan city…

After returning, he looked at the task information and then flipped through the map of Bi Shan city, thinking about what to prepare…

Looking at it, Mok Hua was suddenly startled.

He discovered that in the map, outside of Bi Shan city, there was a barren mountain that looked very familiar.

Mok Hua recalled a bit and then discovered that this barren mountain was actually the broken mountain where “Huang Shan Jun” resided.

The fallen mountain god Huang Shan Jun, his broken temple, happened to be located on the peak of this barren mountain.

“Xuan Ku Mountain…”

Mok Hua silently wrote down the name of this mountain, deciding to visit Xuan Ku Mountain on the way after completing the task and visit Huang Shan Jun.

Regarding the true secret of the Tai Xu Divine Thought Turning Sword, this Huang Shan Jun definitely had something to hide from him…

He wanted to ask clearly!

Thanks for the reward for cultivating immortals together.

Yesterday, I originally wanted to let little Mok Hua “eat” his fill, but I couldn’t write it. Today, I just let Mok Hua “eat” well…
