Immortality Through Array Formations Chapter 2225 Chapter 1035: Ominous Sign

Only seven days remain before the Asura Sword Discussion begins.

This seven-day period was determined by an assembly of elders at the Mount of Tao.

The goal is to give sect disciples time to get ready.

Due to the sudden outbreak of the Asura War, they've extended the preparation period even further.

Within the Disciple's Residence.

Mo Hua remains deeply focused, simulating combat situations, dissecting reasons and results, and reflecting on various matters...

All at once, a knock rings out. Mo Hua approaches the door, opens it, and feels astonishment at the sight of his guest:

"Sect Leader? What has brought you here?"

The Taixu Sect Master stares intently at Mo Hua, pulls a token from within his sleeve, and passes it over to him.

"This represents the Sect Token uniting the Three Mountains, freshly created, the sole one available at present, so use it first."

"Inside this token, the legacies from the Three Mountains are linked together."

"You may swap them freely with merit points."

"Furthermore, this Sect Token holds a unique status; the Sect Leaders of Tai'a and Chongxu have granted you extensive permissions."

"The level of legacies you can access won't be ordinary."

"With the Asura War drawing near, if there's anything you require, simply choose a legacy from within."

"Cultivation Techniques, Taoist Skills, Formations, Artifact Refining Methods... all sorts can be redeemed."

"This is all in preparation for the sword discussion and for the sect's benefit, so during the Sword Discussion Conference, no merit points will be deducted for redeeming these legacies."

"The legacies you redeem may also be shared temporarily with other disciples participating in the sword discussion, provided it's to aid in the event ahead—nothing is off-limits."

"On top of that, I've already notified the elders about this. Whatever you might need, just say the word. For this sword discussion, you're the one calling the shots..."

Mo Hua stands stunned for a moment, then receives the token respectfully with both hands.

The Taixu Sect Master offers no further words, merely regards Mo Hua with a kind expression, places a hand on his shoulder, and departs.

This gesture reveals the sect leader's firm position: unwavering backing for Mo Hua.

A surge of warmth fills Mo Hua's heart, accompanied by a profound sense of responsibility pressing down on him.

He glances down at the token clutched in his palm.

The token exudes an air of antiquity and majesty, its design elaborate and opulent, marking it as the inaugural Taixu Gate Sect Token forged for the Three Mountains' unification.

This serves as the blueprint for future standardized tokens.

Evidently, Taixu Gate plans to roll out this new sect token style sect-wide in due time.

A unified sect token will thus bind all disciples from the Three Mountains under one sect banner.

From what Mo Hua understands, this innovative sect token incorporates sequential identifiers etched within during forging, allowing for distinctions.

Mo Hua runs his fingers lightly over the token.

As the very first token produced post-unification of the Three Mountains, it houses their collective legacies—the Taixu Token.

Therefore, the sequence number embedded within this token ought to be...

"One".

Mo Hua's eyes flicker for an instant before he retreats back into the Disciple's Residence, secures the doors and windows with a formation, then settles at the table and channels his divine sense into this novel sect token.

The token bears the name Taixu Token still.

Yet Taixu now spans the Three Mountains.

Beyond the original Taixu Gate legacies, the inheritances from the Tai'a and Chongxu branches are neatly organized and displayed in the "Merit Scroll".

Taixu Gate, Tai'a Sect, and Chongxu Sect were once among the Eight Great Gates.

As such, the Taixu Token in his possession now aggregates the vast Taoist Repository of three from the Eight Great Gates, comprising nearly "half the realm" of Qianxue's Eight Great Gates' legacies—an extravagance beyond imagination.

What's more, it goes beyond mere common inheritances.

As Mo Hua scans the "Merit Scroll" of Mount Chongxu, he uncovers a distinctive offering.

It seems like a special allowance from the Chongxu Sect Leader:

"Chongxu Sword True Skill".

This stands as Mount Chongxu's paramount sword qi technique, the cornerstone legacy safeguarding the sect, and the elite sword art that Xiaoxiao cultivates.

Tai'a Mountain Opening Sword Formation, Chongxu Sword True Skill, Tai Xu Divine Thought into sword.

This perfectly aligns with that famed phrase:

"Tai'a Refining Spirit Sword, Rushing Void Proliferating Sword Qi, Tai Xu Sword Intent..."

A subtle jolt ripples through Mo Hua's heart.

At this moment, he truly embodies the sect-guarding legacies of all three branches.

This comes as a complete surprise.

He had merely contemplated it before, never dreaming he'd actually reach the point of assembling the Taixu Three Branches' inheritances.

And remarkably, he acquires them through legitimate means.

The urgency of the impending Asura War makes it all possible.

This trust and delegation stem from the Sect Leaders across the Three Mountains.

In the background, the sect leaders must have held thorough deliberations and exchanges.

Even Elder Master Xun has surely been devising strategies tirelessly from the shadows, all on his account...

Though they keep it unspoken.

Mo Hua lets out a soft sigh, then turns his eyes to the window, fixing on Taixu Mountain.

Gazing upon this mountain gate where he's resided and cultivated for nine years, a sudden sense of harmony stirs within him, as though his thoughts entwine with the Taixu Mountain Range.

This is the sect that nurtured his learning.

Here dwell his fellow disciples, the elders, the sect leaders, and Elder Master Xun.

All of them regard him with great kindness.

And he, in turn, is tied to Taixu Gate, their fates intertwined in triumph and trial.

Mo Hua's gaze softens yet hardens with resolve, his determination steadily solidifying.

He has to secure the top spot.

Even if not for his own sake, then for the junior brothers who train alongside him relentlessly, for the kind-hearted elders, for the sect leaders who place their faith in him, and for the ancestors working diligently behind the scenes, who scheme meticulously and harbor deep concern for him...

He will seize that first place.

To forge a promising path for Taixu Gate.

To rise to the summit of Qianxue's Debate.

And to propel Taixu Gate to the heights among myriad sects in the Qian Learning State Boundary.

Nothing will stand in his way.

The tenderness in Mo Hua's expression dissolves, his eyes now gleaming with a fierce golden edge.

Be it the Four Sects, Eight Gates, or Twelve Streams, if any dare to block me, then I shall... sweep them aside.

Following this, Mo Hua commences his official preparations for the Asura Sword Discussion.

Drawing on the Three Mountains' Taoist Repository as his base, bolstered by the sect leader's complete endorsement and Taixu Gate's authority handover, Mo Hua finds himself empowered to accomplish far more.
