Asking about longevity

Mo Hua once again stood in front of the gate of Black Mountain Village.

Two days ago, Black Mountain Stronghold was breached and most of the evil cultivators were wiped out.

Among the four foundation-building evil cultivators, the fourth master was killed in battle, the second master was seriously injured and arrested, the first master and the third master were seriously injured and escaped, and are being hunted by the Dao Tingsi and Dao Bingsi.

Hiding deep in the mountains, doing many evil things, and being powerful for a while, Heishan Village was almost destroyed.

The remaining evil cultivators will be wanted and hunted down.

The main force in destroying Black Mountain Village was Daoting's Taoist soldiers.

As Zhang Lan said, Dao soldiers are indeed powerful.

Mo Hua had never seen it with his own eyes, but he asked his father Mo Shan about it afterwards.

It is said that during the battle, the Taoist soldiers were invincible at the point of their spears.

The evil cultivator under the gun has almost no enemy. In just a moment of confrontation, the evil cultivator will either be seriously injured or die.

Tao soldiers are the sharp blades that safeguard the power of Tao Ting, symbolizing the strength and majesty of Tao Ting.

The Taoist soldiers under his command are so powerful, it is no wonder that the Taoist court can unify the cultivation world and stand for 20,000 years without falling.

This is only a first-grade Taoist soldier in the Qi refining stage.

Taoist soldiers above the first level are probably even more terrifying...

Mo Hua sighed in his heart.

But even though Black Mountain Stronghold was destroyed, he still had a lot of things that he didn't want to understand.

Mo Hua looked at the mountain gate of Black Mountain Village.

The concealment array on the door failed, a doorpost of the bloody and gloomy door was broken, and the entire Black Mountain Stronghold became dilapidated.

Mo Hua did not enter through the gate, but went around to the nearby high wall.

The first time he entered Black Mountain Stronghold, he untied the formation from the high wall, dug a hole in the wall, and then got in.

At this time, the small hole in the corner is still there.

"Didn't the evil cultivator discover this place?"

Mo Hua was a little surprised. He let go of his consciousness and sensed through the high wall for a moment, and suddenly his eyes narrowed.

"No, they found out!"

Behind the wall hole, several new formations were added, including the Golden Bell Formation, the Wood Binding Formation, and several other types of formations.

The golden bell formation is used for early warning, the wooden binding formation is used to trap people, and the other formations have similar uses.

They discovered the hole in the wall and wanted to wait and see!

As long as Mo Hua enters through the hole again, the formation will be triggered, alarming the evil cultivators, and he will be trapped in place by the formation.

This formation must have been set up by the Third Master.

Mo Hua almost didn't need to think about it, but he knew that the Third Master would definitely order people to stay nearby. As long as the formation gave a warning, they would come over and catch him.

But without waiting for Mo Hua, Black Village would be finished...

At this time, there was no evil cultivator left in the village, so Mo Hua had no worries.

He took out the Qianjun Rod, opened the hole wider, and destroyed the formation on the opposite side, and then walked into the Black Mountain Stronghold through the hole in the wall.

At this time, Heishan Village was still bloody, but it was a bit more silent and desolate, and it was not so depressing.

Mo Hua spent some time and walked around the front village according to the route in his memory.

Most of the houses have collapsed, and the contents inside have been collected and handed over to the Taoist court.

The prison in the village was empty.

The monks who were captured and imprisoned here were all killed by the evil cultivators without exception.

Perhaps the evil cultivators killed people before the battle; perhaps during the stalemate, the evil cultivators killed them to replenish their blood and spiritual power; or perhaps during the defeat, the evil cultivators went on a killing spree to vent their anger.

In short, no one was left alive.

Daotingsi and Daobingsi have buried these corpses, sealed the coffins and brought them back to Daotingsi, trying to find ways to identify them and give their families an explanation.

If the person cannot be identified, they will find a place to bury him nearby, build a simple grave, and erect an unnamed monument.

These monks met with bad luck and died miserably.

After death, no one would worship, no one would care about them, no one would even know about them, and their names would not even be on their monuments. ׺°”˜˜`”°º×

Mo Hua sighed, feeling a little uncomfortable in his heart.

After seeing the front village, Mo Hua went to the back village, looked around and frowned.

The formations in Houzhai are densely packed, much more than when Mo Hua first came.

Drawing formations takes time, and only the third master of Black Village can draw such first-grade formations, so these formations were painted early.

It is estimated that not long after he left, the third master started to arrange it.

But why?

Did they guess something?

Mo Hua sat cross-legged on the high wall of the back village, looking at the front village, thinking in his heart.

The front stronghold is too big to defend, so the formations are concentrated in the back stronghold, which will make it more difficult for Taoist soldiers to attack.

Mo Hua asked Commander Yang that out of the three days of attacking the Black Mountain Stronghold, two days were indeed spent on breaking through the rear stronghold's formation.

The evil cultivator did this as if he knew that he would be attacked and that he was no match, so he set up a formation in the back village in advance, hoping to fight to the death.

The purpose is to... delay time?

Mo Hua frowned, "What's the point of delaying time? Aren't you still waiting for death in the end?"

"Could it be that you are delaying the alchemy process?"

Mo Hua turned around and walked towards the alchemy room again.

Most of the beast gate was destroyed, and the formation in front was also forcefully broken. It seemed that Taoist soldiers had also attacked.

Mo Hua walked into the alchemy room. The pillars in the room collapsed and the ground cracked. There were foundation-building monks here who worked hard.

There was a large amount of blood splattered everywhere, whether it was human or demonic.

The bone alchemy furnace in the center of the room was also damaged. It was first pierced by a spear, and then half of the cauldron cover was cut off with a knife, revealing the bone wall inside and the bloody evil array on the bone wall.

There is some fishy and thick elixir liquid in the furnace, which should be the residual liquid from refining the Life Pill. Just smelling it makes you sick.

"Someone can really eat this kind of thing..."

Mo Hua covered his nose and couldn't help but cursed in his heart.

The alchemy furnace was destroyed, and the evil herbs placed around it disappeared.

It should have been collected by the Dao Tingsi, and then either handed over to the Dao Ting, or destroyed on the spot, and will not be retained in the world.

After all, these herbs are used to refine human elixirs, which are harmful to nature and are also prohibited.

It seems that the elixir has not been refined yet...

The ink painting opened the hidden compartment again, and the hidden compartment was empty, with nothing in it.

The Third Master didn't hide anything here anymore.

Of course, this is normal. After it was stolen once, and if it is left here again, the third boss will really become a fool.

Mo Hua took another look at Houzhai and found several hidden secret rooms used for retreat practice.

There is also an empty warehouse for hiding treasures. It is probably used for hiding treasures, but it has also been cleared by the Taoist Army.

Apart from that, there is nothing special about Houzhai.

Mo Hua thought about the whole thing carefully.

First of all, the third master discovered the corner dug by himself and the formation he had unlocked, and became suspicious.

As for how far his suspicion went, Mo Hua couldn't tell.

But Black Mountain Village made a move.

First, they changed the formation in the fog forest and arranged more fog formations, and then strengthened the formation in the rear village.

But this doesn't help.

When the Taoist soldiers attacked, they seemed to delay the attack, but they didn't delay for long. They seemed to hold on for a while, but they didn't hold on in the end.

Black Mountain Village was wiped out naturally.

It seems reasonable, but when you think about it, it is very inconsistent.

Mo Hua thought for a long time, and then he remembered what the violation was:

Heishanzhai seemed to know that he was going to "die" and must "die", and then after a little struggle, he calmly "die"...

This battle is not so much that they wiped out the Black Mountain Stronghold, but more like that the Black Mountain Stronghold was "planned" and methodically... destroyed.

It was as if an invisible hand silently pushed Hei Shanzhai to the edge of the knife, and then Hei Shanzhai naturally killed him at the neck and was beheaded.

Mo Hua frowned even more tightly. He left the alchemy room and climbed to a high place to have a panoramic view of the entire Black Mountain Village.

Surrounded by two mountains, Black Mountain Village occupies a large area.

The previous doubts came to mind again:

"How on earth was such a big black mountain village built?"

The cottage is huge and has many formations. It requires a lot of manpower and material resources to build, and it is in such a remote place in the mountains. Can it really be built with these evil cultivators alone?

Mo Hua frowned.

Is there someone secretly supporting Heishanzhai?

If someone is really secretly supporting it, it must be the forces in Tongxian City, because Tongxian City is the closest to Daheishan and is the most convenient for private communication.

Mo Hua's eyes narrowed slightly.

The first thing he thought of was the Qian family.

The Qian family has a profound background and is unscrupulous in their actions. Mo Hua is not surprised at all to do such a thing.

But when I think about it carefully, I feel that something is wrong.

At least so far, from a superficial point of view, the two have nothing to do with each other.

The Qian family did not collude with Heishan Village, and there were no Qian family monks in Heishan Village.

If you blame the Qian family for this just because you have a problem with the Qian family and hate the Qian family, it will inevitably be a bit biased.

But if it wasn’t the Qian family, who else would it be?

In addition to the Qian family, the larger forces in Tongxian City include the An family and the Tongxian Sect.

But supporting Heishan Village seems to be of no benefit to them.

What's more, with their strength, they may not be able to support them.

The An family was suppressed by the Qian family at every turn, and could only rely on running a restaurant to make a living. If they really had such a large village of evil cultivators, they would have long ago taken revenge on the Qian family and regained their position.

Not to mention the Tongxian Sect. I couldn’t redeem my own Tongxian Peak, so how could I use the spiritual stone to support evil cultivators?

Mo Hua couldn't help but scratch his head, and couldn't think clearly for a moment.
