Chapter 2744: Chapter 101: "Formation" and "Art"_2
After all, the "powers of Taotie" had already spread before him, and he couldn’t just leave it unresolved without understanding it.
"If this approach to research doesn’t work, then... should we try a different one?"
"What kind of approach?"
Mo Hua sat on a large rock by the cliff, with his right hand supporting his chin, staring at the desolate land in front of him. In his mind, he reviewed all his life’s studies and experiences in Tao cultivation, as if they were a "horse lantern" passing by...
The image of the Desolate Heaven Blood Sacrifice Formation collapsing suddenly appeared in his mind.
"Collapse?"
"No, that’s not right..."
Mo Hua recalled the Desolate Heaven Blood Sacrifice Formation.
This wasn’t the first time he "collapsed" a formation, but the Desolate Heaven Blood Sacrifice was different; it wasn’t merely a simple "breakdown."
A Second Grade Reversed Spirit Formation couldn’t collapse a Quasi-Third Grade Grand Array.
The Desolate Heaven Blood Sacrifice wasn’t simply broken down by the "power of collapse"; it involved more complex transformations.
The Reversed Spirit Formation’s collapse caused a direct clash between spiritual power and evil power, opposing forces that transformed each other, leading to deeper "dissolution."
Although Mo Hua managed to "calculate" this change at the time, he himself hadn’t fully understood it.
During the process, guided by intuition, he thought drawing upon the reversed spiritual power to trigger an explosion would make the explosion more powerful, and the contradictions and chaos more profound, so he acted on instinct.
The result, of course, was formidable.
Even Feather Transformation was forced to death.
Golden Core was reduced to ashes in an instant.
Mo Hua had a deep impression of the scene at that time.
Heaven and earth lost their colors, black and white interwove, blue spiritual power and red evil power contested, interlocking, with beams of light shooting towards the sky.
During this process, spiritual power was continuously transforming into evil power.
Evil power was also continuously influenced by spiritual power, undergoing reverse transformation, and its intrinsic evil power was being dissolved and eliminated.
In the opposition of good and evil, they transformed each other, dissolving all things.
In summary, it was a very complex, subtle, and profound transformation.
A bit like...
"A Taiji formed of Yin and Yang Fish?"
Mo Hua was startled at the thought; he wasn’t sure of the principle nor whether his guess was correct.
But the "framework" of conflicting forces generated during the collapse of the Desolate Heaven Blood Sacrifice could certainly be used for reference.
"To apply one kind of power with a completely opposing formation power, thus sparking opposition and transformation, and thereby observe... changes in its fundamental internal laws?"
Mo Hua murmured to himself.
Even if he wasn’t sure if it would work, it was worth a try.
Mo Hua continued to extrapolate:
"From an internal laws perspective, the energy of famine can activate ’vitality,’ causing humans, monster beasts, and even all living beings like grass and trees to experience excessive hunger due to overactivity, leading to a loss of life force, falling into a state of ’death.’
"Famine drives one from life to death."
"Then one only needs to use formations to bring one from death to life, preserving the life force."
Mo Hua had tried this before.
The Wood Revitalization Formation was indeed feasible.
But this was only effective for "humans," not very effective in suppressing the "famine" itself.
Mo Hua couldn’t observe the essence of the famine energy from it either.
"Famine..."
Aside from the Wood Revitalization Formation, what other formations could be used for experimentation?
Mo Hua looked at the barren land afflicted by famine in front of him, a flash of insight occurred, and he thought of a formation:
The Thick Earth Formation!
Famine spread across the land, causing the earth to become barren, grasses and trees withered, and living beings died.
To suppress famine naturally one should start from the earth.
And the formation that contains the vitality of the earth is just the Ultimate Formation:
The Thick Earth Formation.
This was the Absolute Formation of the Earth Sect he found in a mountain village while journeying with his master back then.
It wasn’t clear whether it was a fortunate coincidence or if his master foresaw its significant future use...
Mo Hua felt a slight sense of sentiment, and without further hesitation, he meditated quietly, communicated with the Earth Dao Meaning, and then personally drew several Thick Earth Formations at the edge where the famine energy was spreading to observe their effect.
The Thick Earth Formation circulated with the power of earth’s virtues, vibrant with life.
When famine energy spread to the Thick Earth Formation, it was indeed hindered, behaving like grease meeting heat, sizzling with white smoke, undergoing a strange dissolution.
Mo Hua felt a surge of delight.
However, this process did not last long.
The Thick Earth Formation was soon "devoured" by the famine.
Just as water can conquer fire, but a small amount of water cannot extinguish a large fire.
Life can inhibit death, but a small amount of life force cannot suppress the overwhelming "death."
Moreover, Mo Hua’s Thick Earth Formation was only First Grade, unable to resist the "famine" generated by at least a certain Second Grade Taotie type formation.
But the problem is...
Ultimate Formations are rarely encountered.
Especially a "specific" type of Ultimate Formation.
Now, with famine rampant in the Great Wilderness, where could he find a Second Grade Thick Earth Ultimate Formation to learn?
Mo Hua let out a long sigh.
He then tried using various Five Elements Earth Series or Eight Trigrams Gen-series formations, the grade was sufficient, but the effect was extremely poor.
On the "laws" level, ordinary formations simply cannot compare to Ultimate Formations.
The situation was at a stalemate again...
Mo Hua lay on the ground, below him were relatively dense shrubs, a few meters away was the desolate land where grass and trees had withered under the spread of famine.
This is the boundary between "vitality and decay."
Now this boundary of "decay" is slowly but steadily spreading towards Mo Hua.
It could be a few days, it might be a month, and famine would reach his current location.
The shrubs and bushes under him would all wither, decay, and finally meet "death."
