Immortality Through Array Formations-Chapter 962 - 639: Reduction_3
Mo Hua's eyes were clear and filled with curiosity.
"Then please teach me a little..."
Elder Master Xun was somewhat unable to refuse when he looked into Mo Hua's sparkling eyes, brimming with a desire for knowledge.
He thought for a while and finally softened his heart with a sigh.
"I'll only teach you a little..."
"Okay."
Elder Master Xun paused to think, then asked, "If you wanted to learn a foreign language, what would you need?"
Mo Hua pondered for a moment and cautiously replied, "A dictionary?"
Elder Master Xun nodded, "Correct, you'd need a dictionary."
He continued, "The same principle applies to Fixed Magnetic Patterns..."
"You can consider them as 'words' coded in Formation Patterns. If you want to learn, naturally, you need to find a 'Formation Pattern Dictionary' to cross-reference, so you can understand what each Magnetic Pattern corresponds to."
"What Magnetic Patterns you need to draw to express your intent..."
"In the future..."
At this point, Elder Master Xun's heart skipped a beat, feeling that he had inadvertently spoken of something "dangerous"...
Elder Master Xun frowned, then felt slightly annoyed.
Every time he taught Mo Hua something, this kind of "omen" would appear.
Sometimes, even when he hadn't taught much, this "omen" would still surface...
It was endless...
To hell with it, he didn't care anymore!
Elder Master Xun became stern, his temper flaring.
After all, with his Heavenly Secret Calculation, though not mastered, but still passable, he had somewhat extrapolated.
This omen should not be too detrimental to the Taixu Gate.
Since it posed no harm to the Taixu Gate, he couldn't manage what was outside of it.
A Sect is established for preaching, mentoring, and resolving doubts.
He couldn't possibly, because of some unclear "omen," become so overly cautious that he neglected such a promising disciple by teaching him nothing, right?
Upon this thought, Elder Master Xun felt a sense of relief, his mind clear.
He considered for a moment and took out a thin booklet.
"Inside, there are Annotations on Unfixed Magnetic Patterns..."
"You can take a look when you're free, but still, don't waste too much time. This stuff has a narrow application scope. Don't obsess over it, straying from the main path to minor details, wasting your time…"
"Okay," Mo Hua replied hastily, "Thank you, Elder Master!"
He eagerly took the "Annotations on Unfixed Magnetic Patterns," holding it delicately. He browsed through it briefly; the content was not much, so he softly asked:
"Elder Master, is there more?"
This "dictionary" seemed a bit sparse...
Elder Master Xun shook his head, "That's it! If you can learn this, it's already quite good."
"But what if I finish learning it..."
Elder Master Xun interjected, "Even then, there's no more."
Mo Hua was skeptical, "You don't have more either?"
Elder Master Xun glanced at Mo Hua and explained:
"Formation is profound and complex with many categories. Even the most talented Formation Master cannot master everything in a lifetime..."
"Not to hide from you," Elder Master Xun candidly said, "I've only delved a bit into Unfixed Magnetic Patterns, so my research isn't deep, and that's all the 'Annotations' I have... no more."
Mo Hua felt that Elder Master Xun was not telling the truth, but he had no evidence.
Besides, Elder Master Xun had high prestige, and logically, shouldn't need to deceive him...
Mo Hua then asked, "Where can I find more?"
"Taoist Court," Elder Master Xun said.
Mo Hua was taken aback, "Taoist Court?"
Elder Master Xun nodded. "These Magnetic Pattern Annotations involving secret communications are most completely collated by the Taoist Court, but unless you're part of the Court, you probably won't have access..."
Those inside the Court...
Mo Hua, hiding his disappointment, commented:
"Alright then..."
"Measure your abilities and don't be greedy," Elder Master Xun advised Mo Hua again.
Mo Hua agreed repeatedly. Having finished his questioning, he stood up, bid his farewell, and left.
Elder Master Xun watched Mo Hua leave, not thinking much of it.
...
After returning, Mo Hua started studying the Fixed Magnetic Pattern Annotations.

His Divine Sense had reached a bottleneck, and his Formation knowledge was stuck at Sixteen Patterns; he couldn't learn any more advanced Formations.
He prioritized honing his Divine Sense and reinforcing his foundations when practicing Formation at the Taoist Stele at night.
So, learning any Formation wasn't much different.
Then, Mo Hua dedicated all his spare time to studying the "Fixed Magnetic Pattern Annotations."
Mastering the "foreign language" of Formation was crucial.
And this matter was not as difficult as Mo Hua had imagined.
It just required a lot of time to memorize, practice, and integrate.
For Mo Hua, who possessed the "Taoist Stele," this was nothing challenging.
So, Mo Hua studied intensively for about half a month, practicing day and night, and could almost grasp Fixed Magnetic Patterns.
He could initially express his intentions in Formation Patterns through "Fixed Magnetic Patterns."
The "Fixed Magnetic Pattern Annotations" given by Elder Master Xun, although thin, covered a wide range and were very practical.
After learning them, Mo Hua could finally "understand" the intentions expressed by the Fixed Magnetic Patterns on the Letter Token.
As for more, more comprehensive, and more profound "dictionaries" of Fixed Magnetic Patterns...
He could consider devising ways to "plunder resources" from the Taoist Court when he had time.
But for now, he would try to "restore" a Letter Token!
Mo Hua's spirits lifted, and after some consideration, he decided to start practicing with the "Letter Token" Uncle Gu had given him.
If it broke, he could still repair it.
