Chapter 344: Choice

"Where should I go?"

Mo Hua was a little undecided, so he sat in the restaurant, watching the monks coming and going, and the entire Tongxian City.

Tongxian City was no longer lively, but rather a bit lonely as if a storm was about to come.

There were fewer monks on the street.

Those who could find a way out would find a way out, and those who could not find a way out had only one way out:

Follow the large army of monks to move to the city, move to the barren and poor land, reclaim land, and build a place to live.

When the big monster appeared in the world, even some big forces of cultivation had no power to resist, let alone the monks.

They had no choice.

They had no identity, no background, no connections, and no one was willing to take them in. If they wanted to survive, they could only find another way to survive, and then rely on their own hard work to survive bit by bit.

Mo Hua sighed.

Perhaps this world has always been like this.

In any disaster, the upper-level monks will always have a way to escape.

In the end, it was the lower-level cultivators who faced all the difficulties and endured all the pain.

Even if this disaster was just an unprovoked disaster.

Mo Hua went to see Elder Yu again.

Elder Yu was going to move the city with the casual cultivators.

He was a foundation-building cultivator, so he could actually get away.

But because he was a foundation-building cultivator, the only one among the casual cultivators, he had to protect the casual cultivators as they migrated south.

Otherwise, without a foundation-building cultivator, there would be countless casualties along the way.

"Don't go."

Elder Yu had been busy day and night these days, and looked a little tired. When he saw Mo Hua, he spoke directly.

Before Mo Hua could speak, Elder Yu said again:

"We are moving the city, not building it. Even if we get there, it's all wasteland, so we don't need you to draw formations for the time being."

Mo Hua knew Elder Yu's intentions and was speechless for a while.

Elder Yu looked at Mo Hua and said gently:

"You should have a better future, learn more formations, and be able to do more things in the future. There is no need to suffer with us."

Mo Hua whispered: "It will be very dangerous along the way..."

"There are dangers in doing anything, but you can't not do it just because it's dangerous. This concerns the lives of the casual cultivators in the city." Elder Yu sighed.

"Or... I'll go too." Mo Hua said.

Elder Yu glared at him unhappily: "Why are you joining in the fun? Even if you go, it won't change anything. The most important thing for you is to learn the formation well, not to suffer with us."

Elder Yu has a stubborn temper, and Mo Hua knows that he can't win over him.

Mo Hua turned around and looked at the huge equipment and alchemy shops again, and said with some disappointment:

"Are these going to be abandoned too?"

Yu Chang sighed helplessly and nodded, "We can't take such a large equipment and alchemy shop away..."

"Do you want to sell it?"

Elder Yu nodded and said, "I have contacted Chief Zhou. The equipment and alchemy furnaces here have the formation you drew, which are all good things. Dao Tingsi will convert them into spirit stones and compensate us. After all, we have to move the city and open up new land next, and spirit stones are hard currency."

"Oh, right," Elder Yu remembered something else, and he handed a jade token to Mo Hua:

"This is the identity jade token of the warehouse, and there are more than 10,000 spirit stones in it, all for you, you can go and claim it when you have time . "

Mo Hua was stunned, "More than 10,000... Are they all for me?"

Elder Yu nodded, "These are for you to build your foundation."

Elder Yu looked at Mo Hua with an apologetic look:

"I should have given you more. Without the formation you drew, the life of the scattered cultivators in Tongxian City would not be good, and the Black Mountain Village could not be eliminated. It's just that we have to move the city, and the spiritual stones are consumed a little more. I can only give you this much..."

Mo Hua shook his head, "It's already a lot."

Mo Hua took the jade card and felt it was very heavy. Just when he was about to say something, Elder Yu interrupted him again:

"Don't tell me some lies you don't want. No matter who gives you spiritual stones, you should take them. Those who don't want spiritual stones are fools."

Mo Hua held the jade card, and for some reason, he felt a little guilty.

Elder Yu patted his shoulder, "No matter what you choose, just stand up straight and do it uprightly. You don't owe anyone!"

Mo Hua nodded slightly and left with a lot on his mind.

Looking at Mo Hua's departing back, Elder Yu was reluctant to let him go, but he could only sigh helplessly.

Mo Hua had helped them a lot, and they couldn't drag this child down any longer.

He should go to a wider world, learn advanced formations, and seek a longer-term heavenly way.

Instead of mixing with these poor casual cultivators, there is no way out.

The matter of the big monster was just an opportunity.

Elder Yu turned his head again and glanced at the empty equipment and alchemy shops, and his heart was in a trance.

All this was like a dream.

Seizing the spiritual mine, building equipment and alchemy shops, and making casual cultivators live a rich life, it seemed like a dream.

Destroying the Black Mountain Village, eliminating the threat of evil cultivators, and even digging out the roots, pulling out the ancestor of the Qian family, and completely eliminating the big worry in my heart, is another dream.

Everything was going well, and their lives could have gotten better and better...

But now, everything has become a bubble.

It was like a dream.

When they woke up from the dream, they would have to leave their hometown, and this Tongxian City might no longer exist.

Elder Yu sighed deeply, his expression bitter.

The fate of casual cultivators is hard...

They, casual cultivators, don't even dare to hope for immortality, they just want to live well and live a hundred or two hundred years in peace and stability. Why is it so difficult?

...

Mo Hua walked around again, met a circle of acquaintances, and sat in the yard in silence after returning home.

Everyone is leaving.

Elder Yu, Uncles Yu Chengyi and Yu Chengwu, and other familiar demon hunter uncles and uncles;

Uncle Ji's family, Uncle Meng's family, Uncle Chu's family;

Master Chen from the weapon refinery, he has no children, and will also move to the city with them;

Mr. Feng is old and highly respected. He has been refining pills to save people for so many years. Many people remember his kindness, so naturally there are other ways out;

But he is worried that the independent cultivators will move to the city without the care of the alchemists along the way. They will encounter poisonous miasma and disability, and he doesn't know how many people will die, so he also plans to go with them. Others can't persuade him, and no one dares to persuade him;

The three Dahu who have played with Mo Hua since childhood, Dazhu who helped Mo Hua fight, and Daping who is familiar with him, they will also leave with their parents...

My parents should accompany me, but the others, these people Mo Hua is familiar with;

People who grew up with Mo Hua, or watched Mo Hua grow up;

People who Mo Hua has helped and protected Mo Hua

They will leave Tongxian City, take an unknown road, go to a strange place, and live a hard life again.

Maybe they will sleep in the open air, maybe they will suffer from hunger and cold, or they will be oppressed by families, sects, or even Dao Tingsi from nowhere.

And I will most likely not go with them.

I will take a completely different road from them.

Mo Hua thought silently.

There is no bottleneck in my spiritual consciousness, and I have enough spiritual stones. In the near future, I can build my foundation.

I can choose a family or sect, or even Dao Tingsi or Dao Bingsi to join, practice peacefully until I build my foundation, and then look forward to the golden elixir, and then step by step, learn more advanced formations, and seek a higher realm...

The road ahead for casual cultivators is full of thorns, while my road ahead is full of flowers.

...

But is this really what I want?

Mo Hua couldn't help asking himself again.

What is the purpose of learning formations?

I changed some things, but in the end, it seems that nothing has changed.

In the face of a disaster, I can stay out of trouble this time, but what about the next time?

Will I stay out of trouble like this every time I encounter difficulties?

"If this goes on, will I become numb and indifferent?"

"Will I forget my original intention, lose my original heart, and annihilate my heart of Tao, and thus become a completely selfish person?"

Can I really become an immortal like this? Can I really ask for the Tao?

Can I really find the true meaning of the formation and comprehend the ultimate Tao?

If I lose my heart of Tao, even if I have achieved success and fame, can I still find true immortality?

Mo Hua couldn't figure it out for a while, so he lay in the yard and looked up at the sky.

"What is my heart of Tao?"

"What is the Tao I am looking for?"

"What should I do?"

...

The sky is high and the clouds are vast, as if it contains endless vitality and truth.

If there is Tao, then the sky is the manifestation of Tao.

If there is a great formation, then the Heavenly Dao formation is the ultimate formation.

And this is what a formation master should pursue!

Mo Hua's eyes gradually brightened.

"A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step."

"I can't lay out such a great formation that reaches the sky and the earth, and use the laws of the Heavenly Dao to check and balance the cultivators of the world, so that the cultivation world can prosper and never end."

"Then I will start with the simplest first-grade formation, find a way to learn it, and lay out the first first-grade formation, punish the evil of the Tao, and protect the peace of the fairy city!"

Mo Hua suddenly became clear, his expression gradually became firm, and his eyes were as bright as stars.

He lay in the yard, his hand stretched to the sky.

The small palm seemed to hold the entire sky.
