Mo Hua returned home and, after dinner with his parents, had his mother prepare some soy-braised beef, pastries, and fermented rice wine. Then he locked himself in his room to concentrate on solving formations.
He first drew a Fire-series Formation Pattern on a piece of paper, which appeared in a pale red color and emitted a faint sense of heat.
Following the methods described in the books, Mo Hua then drew a Water Formation Pattern next to the Kan position of the Fire Formation Pattern.
After he finished drawing, the red color of the Fire Formation Pattern gradually dimmed, and the misty pale red Spiritual Energy could no longer be seen. Touching it with his hand, there was no longer a slight sense of heat.
This meant that the Fire Formation Pattern had lost its effectiveness.
