Immortality Through Array Formations Chapter 2037 Chapter 975: Phenomenon (Part 2)
Previously on Immortality Through Array Formations...
However, this breathtaking spectacle is a vision manifest only through Divine Thought.
The vast majority of Foundation Establishment Disciples are entirely unable to perceive it.
They remain lost in their slumbers, or perhaps glance toward the horizon only to witness a peaceful Taixu Mountain, the chilly glow of the moon, the secluded mountain courtyards, and the silence of a dark night.
The Golden Core Elders, however, can sense a vague, unsettling intuition.
Yet, when they cast their gazes upward, they see nothing more than faint, flickering, and inexplicable traces of light.
Only Cultivators at the Feather Transformation Realm are capable of discerning the true signs of Divine Thought.
They behold brilliant streaks of golden radiance; some appear as "branches," while others take the form of intricate "Formation Patterns."
Within his modest academy, the Taixu Sect Master, currently reading by the light of a candle, knits his brows and looks toward the heavens with a look of bewilderment.
“What exactly is this... thing?”
“Could it be a celestial phenomenon?”
“Not quite... it seems like fragments of something...”
“Why has it manifested over my Taixu Gate? Who is responsible for creating this...”
The Taixu Sect Master’s brow remains tightly furrowed in thought.
Outside the gates of the small academy, a large white dog suddenly rouses from its sleep in a state of shock, barking fiercely at the sky.
Meanwhile, at the Elder's Residence.
Elder Master Xun is busy divining with his compass, contemplating the affairs of the Shen Family. In the next instant, as if a brilliant sun had pierced the midnight gloom, a dazzling golden light floods through the window, bathing the entire room in brilliance.
Startled, Elder Master Xun turns his head to look outside. He immediately loses his composure, standing there completely dazed.
His Heaven Void Divine Thought allows him to perceive the full magnitude of the scene.
He sees, amidst a shimmering sky, a colossal golden tree of Law. Its branches and foliage are unfurling, stretching toward the heavens and casting a shadow over the entirety of Taixu Mountain.
Upon this golden giant, every single leaf and twig is composed of an array of Formation Patterns, all interlinking to form a mysterious and profound entity.
This magnificent, sacred, and deeply significant manifestation of the Great Dao strikes even a Heaven Void Ancestor like him with an overwhelming, indescribable force.
Elder Master Xun stares on blankly, even forgetting to blink.
It is only when the glorious heavenly display fades away, the night once again cloaks the mountain, and the world sinks back into silence that Elder Master Xun finally regains his senses.
The incredible lingering image remains etched in his mind even as it returns to the Void, leaving Elder Master Xun with a sudden, unexpected feeling of emptiness.
Simultaneously, a sense of disbelief naturally takes hold.
“What just occurred? Was that... a celestial phenomenon?”
“What category of phenomenon could it be?”
“Is someone forming a Golden Core? No, that is impossible; how could a Core Formation vision be so grand?”
“Is it someone reaching Feather Transformation, or perhaps Heaven Void?”
“But within my Taixu Gate, no such individual exists...”
Elder Master Xun gazes vacantly out the window at the quiet night sky and the peaceful courtyards of Taixu Mountain, suddenly pausing as he senses a strange inconsistency.
“No...”
“Why would such a staggering vision leave the sect gates so undisturbed?”
The disciples are not in an uproar, the elders are not rushing out to investigate, and the whole of Taixu Mountain remains draped in the night, as tranquil and calm as any other time.
“Can they... not see it?”
“Is this... a vision of Divine Thought?!”
Is it possible that only Feathered Immortals and Cultivators at the level of a Heaven Void Ancestor or above can witness this heavenly phenomenon made of Divine Thought with their own eyes?
Elder Master Xun feels a constriction in his chest, his breathing becoming shallow.
“What in the world is happening?”
“Why would my Taixu Gate trigger such a vision of Divine Thought...”
Before Elder Master Xun can contemplate the matter further, one name instinctively surfaces in his mind:
“Mo Hua!”
The only person in Taixu Gate possessing such an unusual and peculiar Divine Sense is Mo Hua.
“Has something happened to Mo Hua? Is this occurrence linked to him?”
Though Elder Master Xun finds it hard to believe, his brow furrows with concern, unable to shake his dread. He simply sets aside his compass and, with a sudden flash, disappears from the room...
...
Inside the Disciple's Residence.
Entirely focused on his breakthrough, Mo Hua remains completely oblivious to the phenomenon he has caused.
Golden light continues to fill the sky with brilliance, making the long night appear as bright as day.
The blossoms of the Divine Tree are in full bloom, blanketing the heavens and the earth.
Mo Hua, whose Divine Sense is currently dwelling within his Sea of Consciousness to focus solely on his advancement, has not seen a single bit of this magnificent display.
He had merely been secretly consuming some Divine Marrow to elevate the grade of his Divine Sense.
Now, having refined and entirely absorbed that Divine Marrow, he has finally realized his goal. He has shattered his shackles and overcome the bottleneck, successfully raising his Divine Sense to Twenty Patterns.
Furthermore, his Divine Thought has been transformed into pure gold—radiant, flawless, and devoid of any impurities.
Mo Hua feels a surge of ecstasy in his heart.
He cannot resist practicing his Divine Thought into Sword within the Sea of Consciousness several times, admiring the pure golden form of his Divine Thought Taoism before finally withdrawing his consciousness contentedly.
However, the moment he opens his physical eyes, Mo Hua is met with a pair of cloudy but piercing eyes staring directly at him.
Mo Hua is startled, nearly jumping out of his skin. Once he regains his focus, he finally recognizes the visitor.
“Elder... Elder Master Xun?”
Elder Master Xun gazes at Mo Hua with a complicated look, asking softly, “Are you... alright?”
“What is the matter...” Mo Hua asks, feeling somewhat confused.
“Your Divine Sense...”
Mo Hua freezes for a moment, then realization dawns on him.
His Divine Sense breakthrough has been detected by Elder Master Xun!
Mo Hua is slightly stunned.
In the silence of the deep night, he had increased his Divine Sense to Twenty Patterns without making a sound or leaking a word—yet a Heaven Void Ancestor could detect it so quickly?
As expected of an Ancestor, his cultivation is truly unfathomable!
What the boy does not realize, however, is that the phenomenon he triggered—with golden light drenching the entire sky—nearly blinded Elder Master Xun.
For Elder Master Xun to fail to notice would have been the truly strange thing...
Elder Master Xun is no stranger, and he has always looked upon Mo Hua with kindness.
