The Quest for Immortality Chapter 2326: Ambition

To erect the Blood Sacrifice Formation for the Evil God's resurrection.

This request is far beyond what any ordinary Formation Master would consent to.

Mo Hua contemplated feigning another refusal, but the sight of Mr. Tu’s cold, impassive eyes, devoid of patience, convinced him to abandon the pretense and nod in agreement.

With a flick of his sleeve, Mr. Tu unveiled bloody Formation Patterns, dismantling the flesh prison. "Follow me," he commanded, stepping forward.

Mo Hua kept pace directly behind Mr. Tu.

Together, they ventured deeper into the gruesome Blood and Flesh Maze.

The journey was a disquieting panorama of gore-soaked flesh, stark white bones, an labyrinthine structure, and an suffocating, oppressive atmosphere.

Despite his intimate familiarity with the terrain, Mo Hua meticulously maintained an facade of ignorance, projecting an air of palpable tension and dread.

All the while, he surreptitiously committed Mr. Tu's path to memory.

Lost in contemplation, Mr. Tu remained oblivious to the fact that this clandestine and sacred forbidden zone had long been meticulously mapped by Mo Hua.

After an immeasurable period of travel, the surrounding ambiance underwent a palpable shift, and the environment became entirely alien.

The crimson fog thickened, and the oppressive weight intensified.

Mo Hua could even discern a malevolent cardiac rhythm, teetering on the precipice of existence and oblivion, which pulsed in sync with his own heartbeat, constricting his blood flow and tightening his chest.

Another fifteen minutes of walking brought them to a colossal door fashioned from bone, which loomed before them.

Upon crossing the threshold, a potent wave of the Evil God's aura washed over them.

A formation of awe-inspiring and chilling grandeur presented itself to Mo Hua's gaze.

Mo Hua's pupils constricted, and he involuntarily held his breath.

After navigating countless twists and turns, he had finally accompanied Mr. Tu to the labyrinth’s innermost sanctuary.

Furthermore, he had finally located the Formation eye of the Desolate Heaven Blood Sacrifice Large Formation, as well as its central nexus.

His prior premonition had indeed been accurate.

A distinct heartbeat was undeniably present.

This was because the core Formation eye of the Desolate Heaven Blood Sacrifice Large Formation was an immense, mountain-like 'heart,' submerged within the very essence of the blood-infused earth veins.

The lifeblood from the earth veins coursed into this colossal heart, imbuing it with vitality.

As the Blood Sacrifice Array commenced its operation, the malevolent essence, meticulously concentrated by the formation, cascaded into the blood via the heart—serving as the 'Formation eye'—before surging back into the earth veins, corrupting them into a putrid river of blood.

The grand heart acted as the Formation eye, integrating both blood and malevolent energy.

Subsequently, this tainted blood and evil power were channeled to corrupt the earth veins, progressively transforming the vast, unfettered network of earth veins into the circulatory system of the Blood Sacrifice heart.

The pervasive evil energy flowed through these transformed blood vessels, gradually permeating and defiling the entirety of the Qianxue land.

"So this is the Formation eye of the Desolate Heaven Blood Sacrifice Array..."

Mo Hua stood momentarily transfixed, then directed his gaze upward towards the immense skeletal structure crowning the Formation eye heart.

The skeleton stretched towards the heavens, dominating the earth veins, its entirety adorned with intricate Blood Sacrifice Patterns, exuding an almost indescribable magnificence.

This structure served as the primary nexus for the Desolate Heaven Blood Sacrifice Large Formation.

With the heart functioning as the Formation eye and the spine bone as the general nexus.

The heart and the skeleton seemed to resonate in unison, their breaths intertwined, as though they were once part of the same colossal, ancient monstrosity.

"Did Mr. Tu... slay an enormous Monster Beast, extract its heart to serve as the Formation eye, refine its skeleton into the general nexus, and thereby construct the Desolate Heaven Blood Sacrifice Large Formation?"

A whirlwind of emotions surged through Mo Hua, mingled with a profound sense of bewilderment.

Could this truly be the remains of a Monster Beast?

Was it even possible for a Monster Beast to attain such colossal dimensions?

If not a Monster Beast, then what manner of creature could it be?

Unable to contain his curiosity, Mo Hua ventured, "Mr. Tu, is this..."

Mr. Tu’s immediate instinct was to reply, but a sudden hesitation stayed his tongue, forcing him to halt.

His internal monologue registered, "I cannot answer this child's query..."

Mr. Tu maintained a stoic silence, his demeanor unwavering.

Mo Hua felt a pang of disappointment. He turned his head once more, his gaze sweeping over the seemingly endless river of blood, the crimson heart, and the magnificent skeletal nexus suspended above it. The astonishment within him remained difficult to quell.

This spectacle defied anything he had ever witnessed; even his extensive knowledge of formations had never prepared him for such a breathtakingly grand formation structure.

The formation's complexity was both vast and intricate.

Its profundity was revealed in the subtle significance woven into its Patterns.

Its vastness was evident in its sheer, imposing scale.

He had indeed witnessed formations of even greater magnificence.

The Fifth Grade Dao Discussion Formation atop Mount Tao was, in fact, considerably more imposing.

However, the utilization of such a gargantuan heart as the Formation eye, and a similarly colossal skeleton as the formation medium for the nexus, with the two elements seamlessly integrated to resemble a monstrous entity—this was not merely a novel concept; it was a tangible reality unfolding before his very eyes.

Mo Hua let out a soft sigh, his heart filled with a sense of disbelief. He truly felt the boundless nature of the Cultivation World, and the infinite potential held within formations.

Mr. Tu presented Mo Hua with a piece of parchment, its material a mystery. Upon it was a grand diagram, seemingly depicting a general pivot with a wild, untamed aura.

"I have imparted the Blood Sacrifice Formation pivot to you," Mr. Tu stated.

"Now, following this diagram, you must meticulously draw the pivot I taught you onto this... skeleton..."

Mo Hua cast his gaze upon the general pivot diagram.

Numerous Third Grade pivots on the drawing had been struck through, replaced with Second Grade ones. It was evident that Mr. Tu had modified the diagram for Mo Hua's benefit, a temporary measure to enable him to complete the construction of the Blood Sacrifice Ritual Formation.

While a reduction in grade and Patterns would undoubtedly diminish the array's potency, Mr. Tu was currently occupied with other pressing matters, unable to oversee every minute detail.

"Understood."

Mo Hua gave a nod, ready to commence drawing the formation, but Mr. Tu intervened and halted him.

"That is not how you draw it," Mr. Tu instructed.

Mo Hua was perplexed.

It appeared Mr. Tu was hesitant to teach him, yet the circumstances demanded it. After a moment of deliberation, he slowly spoke:

"You are familiar with Drawing Ground into Formation, are you not?"

Mo Hua's expression tightened subtly. Recalling his use of this technique at the Sword Discussion Conference, performed before the eyes of all, he felt there was little to conceal and thus nodded in affirmation.
