Chapter 1012: Visitors

Late at night.

The Taoist elders from various sects gathered together again.

It's still the same hall.

It's still those elders.

The tracing picture is still an Mo Hua.

But this time the game is different.

The "victims" are different too.

The traced image showed Mo Hua hiding in the grove and teasing the five disciples of Long Ding Sect.

There are five people from Longding Sect, each holding a hidden mirror.

But in the mirror, there was nothing.

The five of them looked at each other, like five "big fools"...

"Shi Tiangang is wronged. It's not that he is strong and simple-minded and can't see through the concealment, but Mo Hua's concealment technique is indeed strange..."

"Even the hidden mirror can't show it... This shows that the principle of this hidden magic is different from the general inheritance."

"Which one is it? Light Hidden, Spirit Hidden, Eye Hidden, Five Color Hidden, Five Elements Hidden, or Eight Diagrams Hidden Technique?"

"This... it's hard to tell with Fang Tian's painting and the imitation picture..."

"Only by being there in person, sensing the energy, or peering through it with your spiritual consciousness, can you tell the truth from the false..."

"There is a fifth-grade formation in Lundao Mountain, which isolates all external spiritual interference and spiritual awareness. It is difficult for us to intervene and we can't tell..."

The fifth-grade formation isolates everything outside the field.

This kind of isolation formation is meant to protect the sect's disciples from using the sect's skills, superior Taoist techniques, and other rare inheritances in sword fights, so that they won't be stolen by other cultivators with ulterior motives and sophisticated means through spiritual perception, derivation of laws, or reverse cause and effect.

After all, all the masters of Qianxue and swordsmanship are geniuses, and what the geniuses have learned are all superior Taoist scriptures.

If it is really stolen by someone through "perception", "reverse circulation" and "derivation", it will surely cause endless harm.

But in this case, these Taoist elders would not be able to figure out the details of Mo Hua's concealment technique for a while.

"Is there a unique hidden inheritance in Taixu Sect?"

"As far as I know, there shouldn't be..."

"Then his concealment technique must have a source, right?"

"Is there any sect in the entire Qianxuezhou that is good at hiding?"

"There were some in the past, but most of them disappeared. Now there is no sect that specializes in practicing this kind of concealment technique. It is too useless..."

"Then the only way now is to try using different hidden spirit-breaking weapons?"

The skills of cultivation have developed and the types of refining equipment have been subdivided.

There are also many kinds of spiritual weapons.

There are many types of spiritual weapons that can break concealment, depending on the differences in concealment principles and methods.

There are those that can break the spiritual hiddenness, those that can break the water hiddenness, those that can break the color hiddenness, those that can break the light hiddenness... and so on.

Alternative, unpopular, and scarce stealth techniques are rarely passed down and are difficult to learn. There are very few monks who can do it, and it is generally impossible to come across them.

Therefore, the most commonly used spiritual weapons in the cultivation world are still the "general" shadow-breaking spiritual weapons.

For example, the Peeping Mirror used by the disciples of Longding Sect is a general-purpose shadow-breaking spiritual weapon of this type, and it is of very high grade.

Generally speaking, even for rare concealment techniques, the "Stealth Mirror" used by the disciples of Longding Sect will be effective, and it is impossible that no trace can be seen at all.

But Mo Hua is special.

His Small Five Elements Stealth Technique, after years of practice and rich experience in concealment, has reached perfection.

Especially now, his spiritual power has already formed a pill, and the Small Five Elements Stealth Technique has undergone a qualitative change. When he uses it, it already has a sense of reaching perfection.

Therefore, unless accurately targeted, a top-grade shadow-breaking spiritual weapon targeting the five elements would not be able to break his concealment.

"But, if we try them one by one..." An elder frowned, "How long will it take?"

"A team of five people, each with a type of hidden spirit weapon, will test him one by one. It won't take more than a few rounds, and we'll be able to find out quickly..."

"What if he doesn't hide?"

"This kid is smart. If he senses something is wrong, he will definitely hide his weakness. He may not even use this hiding skill again..."

"If he doesn't hide, what's the point of us taking photos of him?"

"Then formulate a strategy, encircle and suppress him, force him to hide, and then find a way to break his hiding with spiritual weapons..."

"To target a disciple, no... to target a spell of a disciple, do you have to spend so much effort?"

"With such a set strategy and such a choice of spiritual weapons, and limited innate abilities, how can we win?"

"I've already said that this isn't about winning, but about figuring out what school of concealment this kid belongs to."

"So... we have to tactically give up a few rounds of Xuan Zi Sword Contest and give points to Taixu Sect?"

"It's the only way."

"This is a Xuanzi sword contest. One less match, are we going to waste it like this?"

"You can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a kid."

"The question is, whose child should be sacrificed to trap whose wolf?"

"In the next few rounds of sword fighting, who will be the opponent of Taixu Sect?"

"Xuanqi Sect, Duanjin Sect, and Lingxiao Sect..."

"The Xuanqi Sect and the Duanjin Sect are fine, but the Lingxiao Sect is not easy to talk to..."

"There's nothing wrong with that. It's just a matter of giving more benefits. It's just that each sect will bleed a little..."

The elders were silent, obviously hesitant.

"You may not realize the seriousness of the problem..."

The elder in charge said solemnly, "Don't underestimate this concealment technique. This concealment technique may be more troublesome than you think..."

"This unique concealment, coupled with his outrageous spiritual awareness and his mastery of the Five Elements magic, can, to some extent, really make him invincible."

"Especially in the beheading game, there is basically no solution."

"If you can't see through his concealment, you will never win."

"If we don't find a solution now, it will be a big trouble if it is dragged to the ground level or even the sky level."

"Whether it's the Earth or Heaven game, every victory is precious."

"Especially in the beheading game, this Mo Hua, as long as he can become invisible, he is invincible. Whoever encounters him will be unlucky."

"No matter whether he can win in the end, he will never let you win."

"Even if he meets the top four sects' genius, he can't beat them. As long as he hides, no one can do anything to him. In the end, it's a draw. Taixu Sect can accept that. Can you guys?"

A draw means no winning points, which is equivalent to a double loss.

The four sects will also compete with each other.

Whoever "draws" with Mo Hua in a game is equivalent to being arrogant, and will fall behind in the competition among the four major sects.

When it comes to this, I can only pray that my luck is not too bad and I don't encounter this "plague god" Mo Hua.

Thinking of this, everyone started to have a headache.

They also didn't expect that the Taoist elders of these major sects would one day be troubled by a concealment technique.

There was silence in the hall for a moment, and then a highly respected elder said:

"That's it, then..."

"Sacrifice some of the mysterious characters and break the concealment of the Mo Hua. As for compensation, our four major sects will pay for it."

"We will also arrange for Shadow Breaker's spiritual weapon."

"We can't let Taixu Sect continue to develop like this."

"There is also this kid named Mo Hua, the leader of the Qianxue formation school. We must not let him go. Whatever abilities he has, we must find out as soon as possible and find a way to kill him..."

Upon hearing this, the elders from other sects also nodded.

That's the plan.

The various sects temporarily joined hands and shared their knowledge with each other in order to "crack" the concealment technique of the Mo Hua, which would serve as the first tactical principle for the next several Xuan Zi sword fights.

In the first match, Xuanqimen faced Mohua.

Each disciple of Xuanqimen holds a magic mirror of different shapes in his hand, which is used to see through the hidden principles of different principles.

In addition, they are also equipped with special formations to break stealth.

All tactics also revolve around "Mo Hua".

This tactic obviously has serious drawbacks.

They only targeted Mo Hua and ignored Linghu Xiao. The Xuanqi Sect, which was not very strong to begin with, had no chance of winning.

This is not a beheading competition, and you can't win by beheading Mo Hua.

This made Mo Hua a little confused.

He was a little confused about what Xuanqimen meant.

Is this... giving away points?

Until the time of sword fighting, Mo Hua was surrounded and had to hide.

The five disciples of Xuanqi Sect activated their spiritual weapons without saying a word.

Five different mirrors, following different principles of breaking concealment, emit different colors of light, shining towards the Mo Hua.

The weapon-making business in Gushan was revived by Mo Hua.

He participated in the design of many equipment refining diagrams.

Therefore, although his actual level of refining skills is very low, his theoretical knowledge of refining skills is actually quite good.

Just one look at these spiritual mirrors and Mo Huas will give you an epiphany.

"The Xuanqi Sect never intended to win. Their purpose in this game was to use different spiritual weapons to break my concealment..."

Mo Hua's mind moved, and he immediately stopped hiding. He was open and allowed the light from the five mirrors to shine on him.

The spiritual weapon that can break concealment is used to break concealment.

If he doesn't hide, naturally nothing can be broken.

The Xuanqi Sect disciples were furious and tried to kill Mo Hua.

Mo Hua took a flowing step, distanced himself from them, and immediately called out to Linghu Xiao and the others:

"Xiaoxiao, come and protect me."

Linghu Xiao and the other three did not hesitate any longer and gathered towards Mo Hua. Their tactical focus also became protecting Mo Hua.

As a result, the pressure on the disciples of Xuanqimen was great.

Their strength was already weak, and their physical defense was far inferior to that of the disciples of the Vajra Sect and the Longding Sect. They did not dare to withstand Linghu Xiao's sword energy to kill Mo Hua.

The Mo Huas also appear and disappear from time to time.

When the Xuanqi Sect uses a mirror, he appears; when no mirror is used, he becomes invisible.

The most infuriating thing is that the time it takes for the Mo Hua to switch between hiding and appearing is shorter than the time it takes for the Xuanqi Sect disciples to take out the spirit mirror and activate the mirror light.

This made the Xuanqi Sect's disciples really lose their temper.

The elders from various sects outside the venue also cursed Mo Hua in their hearts as a "little rascal", despicable, shameless, and as cunning as a devil.

Xuanqimen lost just like that.

Next is to cut off the Golden Gate.

The strength of Duanjinmen is stronger than that of Xuanqimen. They have learned from the lessons of Xuanqimen and optimized their tactics against Mohua.

The Broken Gold Sword Technique is also a superior sword technique with a strong killing power.

Although Mo Hua customized the "Duanjin Armor" based on the core inheritance of Duanjin Sect, in order to use the enemy's shield to defend against the enemy's spear, he could be immune to the damage of Duanjin sword energy to a large extent.

But Mo Hua can't wear this armor.

Because his body is too weak.

Even if the "Breaking Gold Armor" is reduced, the remaining Broken Gold Sword Qi can still take his life.

Moreover, under the new and old grudges, the disciples of Duan Jinmen really wanted to kill Mo Hua.

Therefore, in this sword fight, fueled by hatred, they almost tried their best.

The sky was filled with golden sword lights dancing, and the sword flowers were flying towards Mo Hua like snowflakes.

Mo Hua couldn't hold on at all and could only rely on the art of concealment to save his life.

Moreover, he had to be completely hidden and could no longer be invisible and visible at times like he did when he teased the Xuanqi Sect.

Because once they showed up, in just a moment, five people would attack them with their swords.

In this way, Duan Jinmen will have enough time to use different spirit mirrors to test Mo Hua's concealment skills.

But after this test, there are still problems.

The five disciples of Duanjinmen soon discovered that the magic mirrors in their hands were sometimes working and sometimes not.

The Mo Hua will be reflected in a moment.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

But after a while, the figure in the mirror disappeared and suddenly it could not be reflected again.

After a while, it suddenly became possible to take pictures again.

The five people from Duan Jinmen were confused.

The Taoist elders outside the venue also frowned.

"What's going on?"

"Is there something wrong with the spirit mirror, or is there something wrong with Mo Hua's concealment technique?"

This problem troubled them greatly.

Until Duan Jinmen was defeated, the elders were still puzzled and couldn't sleep.

late at night.

The sect's main hall.

A group of Taoist elders gathered in the hall, staying up all night to look at the Mo Hua's copy, frame by frame, point by point, and finally someone finally understood it.

A thin Taoist elder with a shrewd look slapped the table and suddenly realized, "Damn it..."

He swore something and then realized that he had said something wrong.

The elders didn't care because they also wanted to curse.

"Hurry up and tell me!"

The Taoist elder gnashed his teeth and explained:

"This brat, he learned two kinds of concealment techniques! One low-level and one high-level."

"He mixed the low-end concealment with the high-end concealment and used the two together..."

"So I used the Broken Shadow Spirit Mirror to look at it, and it appeared and disappeared from time to time. Sometimes it could be seen, and sometimes it could not be seen..."

There was an uproar in the room.

"It's so simple... I really am..."

"I surrender to this brat."

"What on earth is this little bastard's brain like?"

"How come you can come up with all kinds of crazy ideas..."

"This is not a clever idea, this is a myriad of Taoist methods, without distinction of superiority or inferiority, the magic of their application lies in one's heart..."

"It's just a trick..."

…

Once you see through the little tricks of Mo Hua, it will be easy to deal with it.

They began to study the Mo Hua frame by frame, one picture after another, to determine what kind of concealment the Mo Hua was in.

But unfortunately, I only played one game, so the "sample" is still a little small.

It is still difficult to judge these Taoist elders for the time being.

"Wait until the battle with Ling Xiao Men is over, and then we'll see..."

"It's the only way."

So in the next round, Mo Hua and his friends met disciples from Lingxiao Sect.

Lingxiao Sect is one of the eight major sects. Its disciples specialize in magic. It is said that it has the same origin as Wanxiao Sect, one of the four major sects, but later they had a rift and separated.

Lingxiaomen's tactics are simple and crude.

The five of them came out together and launched a large-scale "spell bombardment" on Mo Hua.

Golden light, flint, hail and water arrows covered the sky and the earth.

There was no room to hide in the Mo Hua, so he had to use stealth techniques to avoid it.

The battle with Lingxiaomen lasted for quite a long time, and Mo Hua's concealment skills were almost exposed.

After the sword debate was over, Mo Hua's every move was put on the shadow map for the elders of various sects to study.

After careful identification and comparison, several experienced Taoist elders finally sighed and said decisively:

"I see, it's a five-element concealment technique."

"Five Elements..."

"Integrating into the five elements, hiding in the world... That's why he chose the grove to hide in. He wanted to use the energy of the three elements of wood, earth, and water in the forest to hide himself."

"Sure enough... I guessed before that this is a five-element concealment technique."

"Then why didn't you say it before?"

"Before there was no evidence, it was difficult to make a rash judgment. Now that there is evidence, I can make a conclusion..."

"…"

"But... there are many Five Elements Concealment Techniques. Which one did this kid use?"

The Taoist elders all held their own opinions and made all kinds of guesses, but some actually figured it out:

"From what I've observed, it's a bit like... the Five Hidden Sect's Small Five Elements Stealth Technique."

"Isn't the Five Hidden Sect gone?"

"The inheritance must have been lost. I guess this kid was lucky enough to have gotten it..."

"Anyway, it's good to know the principle."

"Let's prepare some five-element spirit weapons that can break hidden spirits. In the next sword fight, we will expose this brat's true colors!"

"good!"

All the elders agreed.

Someone else asked, "Who will they fight against in the next sword fight?"

"Xiaoyao Sect... there is a disciple from the Feng family."

Everyone applauded: "Xunzhou Feng family's children, very good! This time Mo Hua can't escape. Once the hiding place is broken, he will be left with no way to heaven or hell, and he will die without a burial place."

"This kid Mo Hua deserves to die."

"We elders are forced to stay up late for meetings every day. If we don't die, where will we put our faces?"

"Feng Family...Okay, this kid is destined to die."

"Let him know the danger of this sword fight..."

The elders decided on a plan and were very happy.

…

It was late at night.

In the border of Qianxuezhou, there is the Feng family cave.

An elder of the Feng family with a gaunt face was standing outside the cave in the cool moonlit night breeze, seemingly waiting for someone.

Half an hour later, the sound of horse hooves was heard in the distance.

The Feng family elder's expression perked up, and he looked intently, and saw a carriage slowly approaching in the dim night in the distance.

The carriage and horses were not ostentatious, but low-key and luxurious, with a little dust, as if they had come from thousands of miles away to attend the meeting.

A flag was flashing in the night, with a Kan hexagram hanging on it, and the word "Zhang" was written on it.

Upon seeing this, the elder of the Feng family immediately stepped forward and greeted him with a smile.

The carriage slowly stopped, the door curtain opened, and several monks with impressive cultivation got off one after another.

The leader had a childlike face, white hair and an extraordinary demeanor.

The Feng family elder quickly bowed and said with a smile: "Great Elder, long time no see."

The monk who was called "Grand Elder" also said with a smile: "Brother Feng, we have been friends for many years, why should we be so formal?"

The Feng family elder shook his head: "No way, friendship is friendship, and courtesy is courtesy."

He glanced at the Great Elder, then at the young talents behind him, and quickly extended his hand to invite them:

"It's getting late. You all must have traveled a long way. Please come into my humble abode and take a rest."

The Great Elder bowed and said, "I'm sorry to bother you..."

"No, no, it's a great honor for our humble home to be here, Brother Zhang. Please come."

"please."

After exchanging pleasantries, the two sides stopped the carriage and entered the Feng family's cave.

The Feng family is a noble family in Xunzhou. This cave residence may not look like a mountain or water from the outside, but it is a different world inside, with elegant pavilions, lush flowers and plants, and a unique charm of Taoism.

The eldest elder of the Zhang family and the elder of the Feng family were walking and chatting.

"There has been some unrest in Kanzhou recently..."

"We were delayed on the road for some time...that's why we are late."

"According to the time, the sword fight has already started."

"It's already open."

"What a pity…"

"It doesn't matter. This is just the beginning. The best part is yet to come..."

Everyone entered the hall and took their seats one by one, and then a boy came to serve tea.

The Zhang family's eldest elder drank the tea, nodded slowly, and asked Elder Feng:

"Kanzhou is in turmoil and has many problems. It has been nearly three hundred years since I last came to Qianxuezhou to watch the sword-discussing meeting. I wonder what talents have emerged from this Qianxue discussion?"

Elder Feng then cupped his hands and said proudly:

"It is a place where Taoism flourishes, where the best talents from all over the country gather, and where there are countless geniuses."

"If we talk about the most outstanding ones, it's naturally the four major sects."

"In this sword-fighting competition, Shen Linshu from Qiandao Sect, Xiao Wuchen from Tianjian Sect, Ao Zhan from Longding Sect, and Duanmu Qing from Wanxiao Sect are all top-notch talents. They have swept the four corners of the world and have never lost a single battle..."

"Below the four sects, there are also many geniuses in the eight major sects. Linghu Xiao, Shi Tiangang, Qin Cangliu are all very good..."

Elder Feng counted them one by one, then pondered for a moment and said,

"There is... another person. If you count them, he should be a unique monster. He is... talented but not moral, and has a bad reputation."

Elder Zhang was a little surprised. "Who is it?"

Elder Feng said in a deep voice:

"This boy, in the middle stage of foundation building, has the peak consciousness of nineteen lines, overpowering the four major sects and becoming the leader in formation. His talent and cultivation are average, but he can use the five elements magic to perfection, and his concealment technique is untraceable..."

"There is such a genius?"

Everyone was shocked when they heard this.

Elder Zhang was also moved and asked, "What's your name?"

"Mo Hua!"

Among the Zhang family members, a blue-robed monk immediately spat out a mouthful of tea.
