Chapter 415: Chapter 410 Death Condition
âWhat is the meaning of this tunnel?â Situ Fang asked coldly.
The Lu Family cultivatorâs face was pale, yet his mouth was firm, âItâs a mine, isnât it normal to have caves inside?â
But his tone quivered slightly.
âLetâs go in and have a look,â Mo Hua said indifferently, paying him no heed.
The Lu Family cultivatorâs eyes flickered with panic, and he quickly stepped in front of the entrance, stretching out his arms to block everyone,
âThis mine shaft is a secret of the Lu Familyâs mining operation. Outsiders are not allowedâŚâ
Bai Zisheng kicked him directly, sending him tumbling into the hole.
Mo Hua nodded and said, âHe is a Lu Family cultivator, and he took the lead in going in. We have no choice but to follow.â
Situ Fang stared at the two in stupor.
She thought to herself, these two really are brothers from the same sectâŚ
Birds of a feather flock together.
Mo Hua boldly stepped into the mine.
The others followed him in as well.
After entering, Situ Fang silently followed beside Mo Hua.
She knew that Mo Hua was innately weak and was not a body cultivator, and it would be dangerous if someone or something got close to him.
By staying close, she could protect Mo Hua in case of any emergencies.
After all, Mo Hua was risking his own safety to help her by entering the mine; she didnât want him to get hurt.
The Lu Family cultivator who had been knocked to the ground also got up, saying angrily:
âYou⌠coughâŚâ
He spit out a mouthful of dirt with a âptuiâ and continued, âThatâs too much! I will report this to the Family HeadâŚâ
âStop talking nonsense!â Bai Zisheng kicked him again, âLead the way!â
The Lu Family cultivator was indignant, âImpossible! I canât lead the way!â
Because he actually didnât know the way either.
Mo Hua looked around and then said, âFollow me.â
He then took the lead deeper into the mine shaft.
The others exchanged glances and also followed Mo Hua inside.
The Lu Family cultivatorâs expression fluctuated uncertainly.
Is this little devil a traitor from their Lu Family?
How could he be so familiar with this mine shaft?
He wasnât sure what was inside the mine, and he dared not venture deeper.
But he also couldnât let the Supervisor from the Taoist Court Records Office inspect the mine at will.
Otherwise, if the clan held him accountable, he would be in deep trouble.
The Lu Family cultivator hesitated for a long time, but eventually could only grit his teeth and follow them inside, hard-headedâŚ
The shaft was as damp and gloomy as the outside, filled with a filthy stench.
But there was an added scent of decay, a hint of death, and a bone-chilling coldness permeating the air.
And all around were formations.
As Mo Hua walked, he used his divine sense to perceive the formations on the stone walls, feeling inwardly surprised.
The formations within the mine were mostly first-grade ones.
Not only that, these first-grade formations were part of an entire set, complementing each other in a complex first-grade compound formation.
This compound formation was intricately designed and executed with skilled strokes using high-quality spiritual ink, completely different from the crude formations outside.
Clearly, they came from the hand of an expert, possibly even a veteran first-grade formation master.
It seemed that the Lu Family didnât lack formation masters or the means to hire them.
This was very strangeâŚ
Mo Hua slowed his pace and began to use divine sense calculation to decipher the formation patterns and determine the types of formations.
After a moment, he had a rough understanding.
The compound formation included an Earth Stone Formation, an Early Warning Formation, a Sound Isolation Formation, and several other types that supported each other.
The Earth Stone Formation was for reinforcement, the Early Warning Formation for precaution, and the Sound Isolation Formation to keep out noiseâŚ
Mo Hua frowned slightly.
What was the Lu Familyâs purpose for setting up such complete formations in this mine shaft?
Mo Hua extended his divine sense further.
What he perceived were the complex auras within the mine.
There was the essence of earth and stone, filth, and traces of formations.
These auras were mixed together, forming a natural barrier that interfered with divine sense perception.
Everything and nothing⌠there were no other findings.
Mo Hua could only continue to walk forward.
As they walked, several branched tunnel entrances appeared ahead.
At the same time, there came an acrid smell.
It was like the musty odor of rotting flesh.
All of them frowned and covered their noses with their sleeves.
The Lu Family cultivator found it unbearable and immediately hunched over, leaning against the wall, and started vomiting.
Mo Hua glanced at him with contempt and then swept his divine sense around, noting that the branches were not deep and seemed safe. He then said:
âLetâs split up and
What normal Cultivator would study these things?
Situ Fang shook her head, resigned, âTaoist Court has coroners who can examine the bodies. Have them come down later; they should be able to figure out what killed these Mining Cultivators.â
After saying that, she turned to Mo Hua with concern:
âYou should head back first. This place is dirty, no place for children like you to linger.â
âOkay,â Mo Hua nodded.
Now that the missing Mining Cultivators had been found, his task was essentially complete.
However, there was one more thing to do before leaving.
He pointed to the Lu Family Cultivator and said:
âInterrogate him to see if he knows anything.â
The Lu Family Cultivator was somewhat slippery.
Normally, he might not tell the truth.
But now, having witnessed the state of the Mining Cultivatorsâ deaths and shaken to his core, he was in a state of utter disarray and his mental defenses had been breachedâit was an ideal time to interrogate him.
Maybe they could ferret out something useful from him.
Mo Hua wanted to know why the Mining Cultivators had died.
He also wanted to know, what was the real purpose of this Mining Cave?
Moreover, there was an even more eerie pointâŚ
Mo Hua furrowed his brow; in his eyes, a cold light condensed.
He had sensed a whiff of the Ultimate Formationâs aura on the bodies of the dead Mining Cultivators in the wellâŚbut this aura carried a certain malevolent taint.
