Chapter 1374: Chapter 767 Four Symbols Formation_2

However, as Elder Master Xun said, this Four Symbols Formation is indeed too dangerous.

The line between right and wrong is very thin, and it’s hard to control.

Borrowing the power of beasts and integrating it into oneself, using the body as the formation, is almost walking the edge between righteous and evil formations. One moment of inattention, and one might easily stumble and fall into the path of evil formations.

Moreover, Elder Master Xun also mentioned that beasts are close to monsters.

The beast patterns in the Four Symbols Formation can easily evolve into monster patterns.

Because superior “beast patterns” are hard to come by.

Divine beasts almost exist only in legends, exotic beasts are extremely rare, spirit beasts are not strong enough, and they are also very expensive.

These types of “beast patterns” are either scarce or too weak, making it almost impossible to meet the wide application of the Four Symbols Formation.

Since that’s the case, if beasts cannot be used, then only “monsters” can be used.

The powerful and versatile Four Symbols Formation Patterns can only be “monster patterns.”

But as long as monster patterns are used, the Four Symbols Formation becomes an “evil formation.”

Once a cultivator draws the Four Symbols Monster Pattern on themselves, integrating monster beast power into the body, the demonic power will contaminate the flesh, assimilate the cultivator’s blood qi, erode the cultivator’s divine sense, and gradually erase the cultivator’s humanity, turning them step by step into a real “monster beast.”

Mo Hua sighed.

No wonder the Taoist Court does not promote the Four Symbols Formation widely.

Once this formation is promoted, at best, it harms oneself, and at worst, it harms others.

If there are many formation masters learning the Four Symbols Formation, and if the Demon Sect happens to tempt them a little, it’s feared that a large number of evil formation masters might be corrupted at once…

Mo Hua shook his head, muttering to himself:

“No wonder, no matter how I tried to learn these Four Symbols Formations before, I always felt something was missing, and I couldn’t learn them at all…”

To learn the Four Symbols Formation, besides the formation patterns, one must learn the structure of the formation pivot.

The blood qi circulation systems of the flesh formation media and the formation eye are also particularly important.

In other words, learning just the formation patterns is not enough.

This set of patterns must be mediated by “flesh,” with the “heart pulse” as the formation eye and powered by “blood qi.”

Previously, when I drew the Four Symbols Formation on formation paper, I used the Spirit Gathering Array as the formation eye and powered it with spiritual power, so it’s naturally impossible to learn it that way.

Mo Hua scratched his head.

This is troublesome…

This is almost akin to the methods of evil formation masters.

Moreover, the few sets of Four Symbols Formations he had used all used “monster patterns,” which are more strictly “evil formations.”

They are fundamentally inconvenient to learn.

Even if learned, they cannot be used.

Drawing this Four Symbols Demon Array on oneself?

Once demonic power enters the body, I will become a monster cultivator.

Moreover, I am not a body cultivator; my blood qi is weak. Once the fierce demonic power enters the body, I might explode and die instantly.

Drawing it on someone else?

Wouldn’t that just be nurturing “monster cultivators”…

Mo Hua shook his head.

That would purely be harming others; it’s certainly not possible either.

Mo Hua felt a bit dejected.

“If I can’t apply what I’ve learned, isn’t that just learning in vain?”

“I’ve pondered for so long, only to understand the way of evil formations…”

Mo Hua sighed, feeling a bit tired, so he decided to lie down and rest for a while.

Lying there, Mo Hua caught sight of the disassembled black demon banner with his peripheral vision and suddenly got an idea and sat up immediately.

“Control!”

Mo Hua’s mind raced.

This formation cannot be used on myself, nor on others, but it can be used on monster cultivators.

Just like this demon banner, it is used to control monsters!

Through the Four Symbols Array Hub, “regulate” other monster cultivators!

Mo Hua’s eyes sparkled.

He immediately turned the Four Symbols Array Hub on the demon banner over and carefully scrutinized it again, his mind stirring:

“The entire Valley of Ten Thousand Demons uses the Four Symbols Demon Array to manage and control the many monster cultivators within the valley…”

“Who this demon array was crafted by is still unclear for now.”

“But based on previous speculation, it is highly likely crafted by that ‘Mr. Tu,’ who worships the Great Wilderness Evil God and is intricately connected to the Barbaric Mountain.”

“If it’s true…”

Mo Hua contemplated silently, “Then that Mr. Tu is definitely a highly skilled formation master, at least a highly skilled Four Symbols Evil Formation Master.”

“He divided the Four Symbols Demon Array into two parts.”

“One part of the monster pattern is drawn onto the monster cultivators to strengthen their demonic power.”

“The other part of the formation pivot is drawn onto the demon banner, controlling the monster cultivators by controlling the formation pattern through the formation pivot.”

“This formation system is very complete, and given the current scale of monster cultivators in the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons, its application is very extensive.”

“Moreover, because the demon banner needs to be activated by demonic power, the righteous cultivators cannot use it. So to some extent, it prevents the ‘control rights’ from falling into the wrong hands.”

“The entire Four Symbols Demon Array system is very tight.”

“However, there are also loopholes…”

Mo Hua’s eyes glimmered, “If I could learn the Four Symbols Array Hub, then theoretically, through the array hub, I could ‘usurp power’ and indirectly control the life and death of the numerous monster cultivators in the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons!”

But…

Mo Hua slightly frowned.

The array hub is hidden in the demon banner.

Such ‘usurpation’ must first go through the demon banner.

The problem is, I am a Righteous Dao Cultivator, practicing spiritual power, making it impossible to activate the demon banner.

Moreover, that managing demon banner has already been “disassembled.”

Taking things apart is not difficult for Mo Hua, but expecting him to put them back together is not very realistic.

“Then… make a new ‘spiritual banner’?”

Mo Hua thought for a moment, shaking his head.

In such circumstances, there is no condition to refine a spiritual artifact.

Moreover, trying to use a righteous “spiritual banner” to control evil “monster patterns” is clearly unrealistic.

Mo Hua continued pondering:

“The essence of the demon banner is the array hub.”

“The manager uses the demon banner because he does not know formations, so he can only use the ‘demon banner’ to control monster cultivators.”
