Chapter 270: 269 Discovery_1



Elder Yu said with a smile that was not quite a smile, “Of course, it was from the moment you entered the door.”

Mo Hua’s face turned somewhat despondent; it seemed that he couldn’t fool a cultivator at the Foundation Establishment Stage.

“Did you perceive it with your Divine Sense?” Mo Hua asked again.

Elder Yu shook his head slightly, “No, it was what I heard.”

Mo Hua was stunned, “Heard?”

“Correct.” Elder Yu said, “Having been a Monster Hunter for so many years, spending my years in the mountains hunting Monster Beasts, I am aware of every slightest rustling.”

“Moreover, this is my home, I usually sit here in the living room drinking tea. The room is empty, and suddenly there’s an additional presence. How could I not notice?”

Elder Yu looked at Mo Hua, his smile kind as he explained.

Mo Hua nodded, feeling that there was reason in that. Then, after thinking for a moment, his eyes lit up.

“Then if the environment were more chaotic, and I squat without moving or making a sound, would you be able to detect me?”

“This…”

Elder Yu stroked his beard, somewhat hesitant.

To say he couldn’t find him, he, as an Elder in the Foundation Establishment Stage, would lose some face.

But to say he could definitely find him, he wasn’t entirely sure.

Originally, when Mo Hua entered the room, he actually hadn’t noticed at the beginning.

It was only when Mo Hua moved that, though his footsteps were light, the faint sound still reached his ears.

He identified the location by the sound, then swept the area with his Divine Sense, only then did he find a blurry figure, a small cultivator using a Concealment Technique.

This presence was very familiar.

Moreover, to use the Concealment Technique, being so young and daring to play in his living room, besides Mo Hua, there was no one else.

Elder Yu simply pretended not to see and played along with Mo Hua for a while.

But now that he thought about it, had he not heard the sound and deliberately used his Divine Sense to scan the area, he might not have found Mo Hua at all.

Elder Yu frowned, thought about it for a while, and finally said truthfully:

“In that case, it’s really hard to say.”

Mo Hua’s eyes brightened, “Elder Yu, shall we have a try?”

Elder Yu wanted to say “I have something to do later,” but seeing Mo Hua’s spirited big eyes, the words did not come out.

“It’s not anything important anyway, consider it a rest and accompany the child Mo Hua to play,” Elder Yu silently thought to himself. He also wanted to know how effective Mo Hua’s Concealment Technique really was.

“Alright, let’s find a place to test it and see if I can discover you,” Elder Yu said with a nod and a smile.

The two went outside Tongxian City and found a secluded spot at the foot of a mountain.

Trees stood in great numbers here, and the vegetation was lush.

“I’ll go hide in the forest first, and then you come and find me.”

After saying this, Mo Hua walked into the forest and hid in the bushes behind a large tree. Then, he cast his Concealment Technique, hiding his figure, staying still and silent.

After silently counting to fifteen, Elder Yu entered the forest, released his Divine Sense, and couldn’t help but furrow his eyebrows.

At a glance, it did seem like he couldn’t find Mo Hua at all.

Elder Yu had to patiently start from the edge of the forest, searching each clump of grass one by one.

After the time it took to drink a cup of tea, Elder Yu finally perceived a small figure in the bushes behind the large tree.

Elder Yu’s eyebrows lifted, and he breathed a sigh of relief inside.

At last, he had found Mo Hua. He would have lost face otherwise.

Elder Yu coughed and looked towards the bushes where Mo Hua was, feigning ease, “Come out.”

Mo Hua revealed his figure, not disappointed but rather expectant, and asked Elder Yu:

“Elder, how’s this Concealment Technique?”

Being found was normal; Mo Hua just wanted to test to what extent this Concealment Technique could hide him from a Foundation Building Cultivator.

“Not bad,” Elder Yu nodded in approval, “If you don’t move or make a sound, a regular Foundation Building Cultivator who doesn’t intentionally extend his Divine Sense to examine closely might not find you.”

Mo Hua’s expression brightened.

“However,” Elder Yu reminded Mo Hua, “the Divine Sense of Foundation Building Cultivators varies in strength. Just because I couldn’t find you, doesn’t mean others won’t be able to. Still, you must be careful.”

Mo Hua answered earnestly, “Don’t worry, Elder. I understand.”

Elder Yu nodded, then inwardly he mused.

Being able to conceal to this extent is already very impressive, but how strong is Mo Hua’s Divine Sense now?

It won’t be long before he catches up to the Foundation Establishment Stage…

Elder Yu pondered in his heart and suddenly thought of something, asking,

“How did you learn the Concealment Technique?”

He had been very concerned about it before but didn’t have the chance to ask.

If he remembered correctly, the Concealment Technique was supposed to be a Spell that only those with a pure Water Spirit Root, or a very special Yin Spirit Root, could learn.

Mo Hua had the Small Five Elements Spiritual Root; with the Water Series being mixed, he shouldn’t have been able to learn the Concealment Technique.

Mo Hua smiled mysteriously, “I drew a Formation.”

“Oh.” Elder Yu suddenly understood.

Mo Hua was a Formation Master, and naturally, he would rely on Formations to solve problems.

“Is this Formation very rare?” Elder Yu asked.

In his memory, he had never heard of a Formation Master capable of drawing a Concealment Formation, nor had he seen a Spiritual Artifact with concealing abilities.

He had only seen a few Cultivators who knew the Concealment Technique, like that Diao Laosi, but such Cultivators were rare.

Mo Hua nodded, “Yes, it’s difficult to learn.”

Although the Concealment Formation was a Ninth Pattern Formation, the technique required for drawing it was special, needing almost nine and a half Patterns worth of Divine Sense.

A typical first-rate Formation Master’s Divine Sense wouldn’t reach this threshold, so naturally, they couldn’t learn it, which was why it was rare.

Elder Yu nodded slightly.

If Mo Hua said it was difficult to learn, then the Formation must indeed be challenging, which was no wonder he had never seen it before.

Filled with curiosity, Elder Yu asked,

With this Formation covering, can you really not see anything at all?”

Mo Hua then activated the Concealment Formation on its own, and his body became invisible, but his hands and small head still retained a faint outline.

Seeing this, Elder Yu felt somewhat disappointed,

“This Formation still has some flaws; its concealing effect isn’t good.”

“Yes.” Mo Hua agreed, “That’s why I learned a half-baked Concealment Technique, and only by combining it with this flawed Concealment Formation was I able to become invisible.”

The two methods of hiding, used separately, were ineffective, but together they could achieve invisibility.

“This is a double Concealment… well, let’s say one and a half.” Mo Hua said.

Elder Yu stroked his chin, contemplating, “When you combine these two, the effect seems to be better than just the Concealment Technique alone, especially at night.”

At night, the darkness made it difficult for others to see; even if one layer of concealment was penetrated, Mo Hua still had another layer that wouldn’t be noticed by people.

A normal Cultivator wouldn’t expect someone to be cloaked in two layers of concealment.

Mo Hua smiled somewhat proudly.

Being praised by Elder Yu of the Foundation Establishment Stage for the effectiveness of his concealment was surely not a waste of all his effort.

As the two chatted and the sky grew dark, Elder Yu suddenly slapped his forehead, “I forgot, there’s still something I haven’t done.”

“Is it something important?”

“A trivial matter.” Elder Yu smiled, “It’s getting late; let’s head back.”

“Okay.”

Elder Yu then led Mo Hua back, and when they reached the intersection on South Street, Elder Yu gave Mo Hua a few reminders before turning to the Refinery Shop.

Mo Hua walked home alone, in high spirits.

Having learned the Concealment Technique, whether for sneak attacks, escaping, or ambushing, he now had more options at his disposal.

After all, no one else could see him.

Mo Hua couldn’t help but laugh out loud, humming a tune. As he walked along, he suddenly stopped, his heart trembling at a thought that struck him.

Unseeable…

Elder Yu’s words from before echoed in his ears,

“With this Formation covering, can you really not see anything at all…?”

The Formation covering… unseeable…

In Mo Hua’s mind, the image of that cliff and the bottomless abyss below it suddenly surfaced.

“It couldn’t have been… concealed by the Concealment Formation, could it…”

Mo Hua’s pupils constricted as he muttered to himself.
