Chapter 1083 -674: Comprehending the Dao_3

This Five Elements Source Pattern, its true form couldn’t possibly be… an Evil God, could it?!

Mo Hua took in a sharp breath of cold air.

Am I carrying an Evil God with me?

Mo Hua muttered to himself, “Surely not

Ever since the probability of decoding was too low to “draw” a Second Grade Five Elements Formation, the Five Elements Formation Flow Map storing the Five Elements Source Pattern had been thrown into the Storage Ring to “gather dust” by Mo Hua.

But now that I think about it, the secret contained within this Source Pattern is probably anything but simple…

Mo Hua wanted to take out the Five Elements Formation Flow Map to take a look, but after some thought, he decided against it.

Ignorance is fearlessness.

Before, not knowing its details, I didn’t really pay much attention to it.

But now that I know that the existence of this Source Pattern is very bizarre and might even be an “Evil God,” Mo Hua couldn’t afford to be without any caution.

I’ll wait some more time…

Until my own realm is higher, my Divine Sense stronger, or after I “consume” some more Divine Marrow and my Divine Thought undergoes a further Quality Change, I will then find the time to carefully examine this Source Pattern.

Apart from these, the “ghosts” that Mo Hua remembered seem to have disappeared.

What’s left are the “demon monsters” from Yu Er’s nightmares.

Mo Hua furrowed his brows.

These “demon monsters” are somewhat special, with grotesque shapes, limbs mixed between humans and animals, clearly not “ghosts.”

Could they be… the evil spirits between heaven and earth?

Or could it be, they are puppets or servants under the dominion of an Evil God?

Mo Hua wrote down the words “demon monsters” on paper, and added notes behind it: “evil spirits” and “Evil God’s servants.”

This was a temporary deduction.

I have seen more later on, and after grasping the nature of these “demon monsters,” I can then come back and correct it.

As for ghostly thoughts and evil spirits, Mo Hua has roughly distinguished them.

What follows is the deities.

Regarding the knowledge of deities, Mo Hua recalled that Lord Yellow Mountain didn’t say much, and definitely concealed something.

Such as the mysteries of realms and Divine Rank.

Apart from Wandering Gods and Mountain Gods, what other deities are there?

River God? Stream God? Land God?

Celestial God? Ancient God?

How do high realm deities with immense Divine Bodies reside in Divine Statues?

Where are they usually?

Surely they’re not just floating in the sky, with Divine Bodies as large as mountains, watching over the humans every day…

And humans have weak Divine Sense, so they can’t see them?

The quality of Divine Marrow corresponds specifically to what kind of Great Dao colors. Those pure gold, jade white, and lapis lazuli Divine Marrows, where precisely can they be obtained…

…

The more Mo Hua knows, the more he feels that there is so much more he does not know.

This world is truly profound…

Mo Hua shook his head and sighed.

These things, Lord Yellow Mountain did not mention.

It could be that he simply didn’t know, or it could be that he knew but deliberately did not say.

Mo Hua couldn’t demand it.

Do not do unto others what you do not want done to yourself, there are also things I do not wish to tell others.

And the current knowledge of deities is more or less enough for me.

Based on this “secret knowledge of deities,” and other information mentioned by Lord Yellow Mountain, Mo Hua began to make his next plans.

First of all, is Divine Thought into Sword.

Taixu Divine Thought Sword True Jue!

This Divine Thought Sword Technique should, in theory, be hidden within Taixu Gate.

But Mo Hua had inquired for a long time without much clue, he could only keep an eye out and continue searching later on.

Mo Hua couldn’t help but daydream a little.

When I grow up, grow taller, and wear an eye-catching white Taoist Robe like the predecessors of Taixu Gate, then I’d fly with Sword Control, and upon seeing evil spirits and ghosts, use Divine Thought into Sword to slash at them.

Just thinking about it feels very dashing…

The more Mo Hua thought about it, the more he felt that learning this Divine Thought into Sword was indispensable!

Then, it is the Divine Tao Array.

Since it’s an array, naturally, Mo Hua wanted to learn it too.

Moreover, having learned Heaven Yan Jue, it’s like boarding a “thief ship”, and in the future, it’s very likely to “offend” an Evil God.

The Divine Tao Array that can restrain deities is obviously also of utmost importance.

It’s just a pity that Lord Yellow Mountain is a Mountain God who doesn’t understand arrays. He only heard of such arrays but doesn’t actually know what these so-called divine arrays are.

Is it one kind within the Eryi, Three Talents, Four Symbols, Five Elements, Seven Stars, Eight Trigrams array spell points?

Is it a completely different branch of formation?

He would have to seek and comprehend it by himself in the future.

Mo Hua felt a bit of an itch in his heart, accompanied by some anticipation.

Both Divine Thought into Sword and the Divine Tao Array required gradual exploration; there was no rush for now.

At present, the most critical issue was still his cultivation.

He needed to find a way to obtain “Divine Marrow” to further undergo a qualitative change in his Divine Sense, thus clearing the path for his breakthrough in the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Divine Marrow was extremely precious.

Only deities had Divine Marrow.

The only deity Mo Hua knew at present was Lord Yellow Mountain, but no matter what, he couldn’t possibly harm Lord Yellow Mountain to extract its Divine Marrow.

Lord Yellow Mountain was a good friend!

Not only Lord Yellow Mountain, but he also couldn’t bring himself to harm any other righteous deities.

This left only one path, full of taboos and bloodshed…

Hunting Evil Gods!

Mo Hua sighed softly.

Evil Gods were too powerful.

With his current Divine Thought Power, he was certainly no match for an Evil God.

But through his understanding of deities, Mo Hua also found some loopholes.

As Lord Yellow Mountain had said:

"Evil Gods will disperse to spread their doctrine

A great Evil God often divides its Divine Body into numerous First Grade, Second Grade, or Third Grade ‘Divine Remains,’ spreading across various low-grade territories of the Nine States, to disseminate the Evil Path to the widest range, feeding on the corrupt desires of people, nourishing itself

He dare not touch the unified, powerful Divine Body of an Evil God.

But the Divine Remains of the Evil Gods that were scattered across the Nine States, propagating their doctrine, were mostly of First and Second Grade.

Forget Third Grade; he definitely couldn’t beat them.

But the remains of a First Grade or Second Grade Evil God should be no match for him.

Pick the softer persimmons to squeeze.

Choose the weaker Evil Gods to “consume.”

Mo Hua nodded to himself.

The golden evil eye parasitizing the body of that black-clothed leader that day should be one of the “Divine Remains,” used to propagate the doctrine by the great Evil God, Master of the Great Wilderness.

As long as he prepared himself thoroughly, kept silent, and stealthily “ate” one or two Divine Remains of Evil Gods, the Master of the Great Wilderness shouldn’t notice.

After all, Mo Hua had heard from that big eyeball, “The Great Wilderness is boundless, with myriads of Divine Remains

This myriad did not clarify whether it literally meant there were thousands of “Divine Remains,” or it was just an exaggeration to imply that the Wild God was powerful and had many Divine Remains…

But either way, the number of Divine Remains was definitely not small.

Eating one or two, the lord of the boundless expanse should not feel the slightest pain or itch, and would probably not be petty enough to haggle with him.

Just need to be a bit more discreet, it would be best still not to let Him know.

There was another issue.

Once “Divine Marrow” was consumed and divinity increased, humanity would erode, original intentions would be lost, and the Taoist Heart would become colder and colder.

Mo Hua furrowed his brows.

He didn’t want to become a cold, little Evil God.

But this problem seemed somewhat unsolvable.

He didn’t even ask Lord Yellow Mountain because Lord Yellow Mountain was a Mountain God, a deity not human, it didn’t need to consider the problem of “humanity.”

Mo Hua leaned on the table, lost in meditation.

He went over and over the cultivation knowledge related to deities in his mind, pondering repeatedly.

After who knows how long, Mo Hua suddenly had a flash of enlightenment.

He had overestimated “deities” and overvalued “divinity.”

One need not view gods as “gods.”

Deities, though born of the Dao and strong, intangible embodiments of Divine Thought, were also part of all creatures under heaven and earth, one of the myriad living beings.

Deities complied with the Great Dao.

Humanity is Dao, and so is divinity.

Cultivators seek the Heavenly Dao.

As such, whether human or deity, both are parts of the “Great Dao” and not absolute contradictions.

Since both are “Dao,” one can have both!

Upholding humanity, tempering divinity, integrating humanity with divinity, becoming one with the Great Dao and forming an unbreakable Taoist Heart.

This seemed to be the path he ought to take!

At this thought, Mo Hua felt as if he had been enlightened, his mind and spirit clear.

A flicker of light in his eyes, heavenly secrets surfaced, black, white, and pale gold, the three colors intertwined, shining brilliantly.

Inside the Sea of Consciousness, he faintly heard the tremulous sound of the Taoist Stele.

Mo Hua felt that atop his Divine Thought, pale golden patterns flashed along the trajectory of the Mysterious Heaven Great Formation.

As if in the darkness, his understanding of the “Heavenly Dao” deepened by another level; this comprehension felt like it had fused into his instinct, engraved into his Taoist Heart…
