Immortality Through Array Formations

```

Mo Hua sighed.

In the following days, Mo Hua spent most of her time at home, keeping her parents company.

Mo Shan and Liu Ruhua couldn't bear to part with Mo Hua, but as cultivators seeking the path of immortality, they had to let go when such an opportunity arose, reluctant as they were.

Still, their hearts were inevitably filled with concern and sorrow.

Mo Shan reduced the number of times he went into the mountains to hunt monsters, taking more time to stay at home and spend with Mo Hua.

Liu Ruhua also made many delicious dishes for Mo Hua.

At the same time, she packed luggage for Mo Hua, organizing things into a storage bag, stuffing it with jerky, candied fruits, and rice wine.

There were also quite a few spirit stones.

Mo Hua didn't want to take them, but unable to refuse, she took only half.

She hoped her parents would also keep some spirit stones to cultivate well so that they could reach Foundation Establishment and even form a Golden Core, living a happy and fulfilling life.

With the luggage nearly packed, Liu Ruhua suddenly remembered something and handed Mo Hua a wooden box.

"This belongs to Court Leader Zhang. He left it on the table at the tavern that day, forgetting to take it with him. The next day, I heard that he left Tongxian City to return to the Zhang Family. I can't return this wooden box to him now..."

"Court Leader Zhang probably won't be coming back, you keep it. If you happen to meet him in the future, you can return it to him."

Mo Hua was stunned, "A wooden box?"

She examined the box, which was an ordinary one but made from sturdy material and sealed with a formation, making it unclear what was inside. Find exclusive stories on My Virtual Library Empire

"Alright, Mom, I'll keep it for now and return it to Uncle Zhang when I see him."

But she was still somewhat puzzled.

Uncle Zhang Lan, though he seemed idle and carefree, loved to slack off, he actually was quite meticulous and not someone prone to losing things...

How could he have left the wooden box in the tavern?

Mo Hua looked at the wooden box and suddenly blinked.

The wooden box was sealed with a formation.

The formation was a basic Compound Formation, simple and straightforward, exactly the one she first learned when studying "Initial Understanding of Compound Formation".

The first time she met Uncle Zhang Lan, she had asked him about this very Compound Formation...

This was something that only she and Uncle Zhang Lan would know.

"Did Uncle Zhang leave this wooden box for me?"

Mo Hua was a bit doubtful.

She took another careful look at the formation and felt she had seen it poorly...

It was drawn terribly...

Mo Hua could tell that the person drawing the formation had tried their best to depict it, but their foundational skill in formations was really poor...

Mo Hua was quite certain now.

It was Uncle Zhang Lan's handwriting.

"Did Uncle Zhang deliberately use this Compound Formation to seal the wooden box, trying to hide something?"

Mo Hua was curious. After a moment of thought, she decided to open it and take a look.

She tapped with her finger, her Divine Sense stirred slightly, Mo patterns emerged, and she instantly unlocked the Compound Formation on the wooden box, which then opened up.

Inside the wooden box was a scroll.

The scroll was somewhat old, appearing to be hand-copied.

The title page was blank, without any words.

But inside, there were arcane meridian charts and detailed text—others might not understand, but Mo Hua could see at a glance, this was...

The Second Grade Water Passing Step Secret Manual!

This was something Uncle Zhang Lan had left for her...

Mo Hua was stunned and then overwhelmed with emotion.

She flipped to the end of the Secret Manual and found a line of small characters; although the handwriting was deliberately blurred, with her expertise in formations and penmanship, she could still make out that it was Zhang Lan's handwriting:

"Cherish the clan's spell point, do not bring it disgrace."

"Left by a passing, nameless, kind-hearted uncle."

Warmth bloomed in Mo Hua's heart, and she smiled brightly.

She committed Zhang Lan's kindness to memory, thinking that if she saw Uncle Zhang in the future, she would definitely give him a grand gift in return.

Suddenly, Mo Hua's eyes lit up.

This movement technique manual was a huge help and solved her immediate problem.

A Spiritual Cultivator without a movement technique was like a steamed bun without legs—everyone could take a bite, and it couldn't escape.

Choosing a new movement technique to learn would be troublesome, and the results would certainly be inferior.

Just like formations, whether it was cultivation techniques, spells, or movement techniques, all required a tradition to follow.

First Grade, Second Grade, Third Grade: gradually progressing from the simple to the complex.

In this way, learning would be twice as effective with half the effort, the foundation would be solid, comprehension deeper, and the effect stronger.

With the Second Grade Water Passing Step, even if she went to Qian State, facing cultivational geniuses at the Foundation Establishment Realm, she would have enough power to protect herself!

Mo Hua breathed a sigh of relief.

Afterward, she began to learn the Second Grade Water Passing Step.

The First Grade Water Passing Step was something Mo Hua was extremely proficient in, so learning the Second Grade wasn't too difficult.

As time passed, Mo Hua's Water Passing Step gradually improved to the Second Grade Foundation Establishment level.

The Second Grade Water Passing Step, compared to the First Grade, had many more variations and was much more complex.

But before Mo Hua could fully grasp the many variations of the Second Grade Water Passing Step, she heard something that made her jaw drop...

Instructor Yan was getting married!

It was Instructor Yan who told her this news.

Manager Mo nodded when he saw Mo Hua's reaction, "I looked just like you when I heard the news..."

"Instructor Yan... who is he marrying?" Mo Hua couldn't help but ask.

"It's that woman, the one we saw that day, with her hair tied up simply and her face unadorned, not outstanding in looks but intellectual in temperament..."

Manager Mo said a lot in one breath.

Mo Hua remembered.

It was that dignified and serene female Formation Master...

Now that he mentioned it, she quite matched Instructor Yan.

"But..." Mo Hua frowned, thoroughly puzzled, "how did Instructor Yan get to know that woman, and how did they come to the point of getting married?"

Manager Mo had an expression that seemed to say you wouldn't believe it if I told you:
