Chapter 965: Chapter 464: When the Moon Is Full, It Begins to Wane; When Water Is Full, It Overflows (First Update)_2

"Is the kneeling doll the Array Hub? If we take it away, won’t the hidden geomantic formation just collapse on its own?" Daoist Wang propped a chubby hand against his face, his fingers occasionally tapping his cheek.

"The Array Hub won’t be that easy to find." Lawrence Winters shook his head, lost in thought. "If it’s a hidden geomantic formation, the Array Hub would be more concealed. Otherwise, it would be easily broken and wouldn’t be effective, right?"

"Exactly, the Array Hub of a hidden geomantic formation can’t be easily destroyed. And that kneeling doll is often picked up and has its contents replaced; it couldn’t possibly serve as the Array Hub of a hidden geomantic formation." Mr. Zhuge said calmly, exuding an air of mastery.

"...Everyone’s talking about the Array Hub of a hidden geomantic formation, but I don’t even know what kind of geomantic formation it is..." Daoist Wang scratched his head and asked Daoist Quan, "Daoist Quan, do you know?"

Daoist Quan also shook his head, smiling as he said, "I can only deduce that if the hidden geomantic formation is to complement and enhance the kneeling doll, then it must be a ’Nine-turn Plum Blossom Formation’."

Daoist Wang had a look on his face that said, "I don’t understand what you all are talking about, but I think you’re amazing."

Lawrence Winters pursed his lips into a smile and said, "The Nine-turn Plum Blossom Formation takes the meaning of ’The fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold,’ symbolizing that when winter arrives, can spring be far behind? After the bitter winter comes spring, hence the nine turns, which indeed seem to enhance the effects of Nightmare Town."

Daoist Quan nodded repeatedly with delight, saying, "Turns out, Lawrence Daoist is truly an expert!"

Lawrence Winters smiled without speaking, thinking to himself, so now you finally recognize I’m an expert...

Mr. Zhuge looked at Lawrence Winters and then at Daoist Quan, smiling openly, "So are you two confirming it’s a ’Nine-turn Plum Blossom Formation’?"

"Yes."

"No."

Both Daoist Quan and Lawrence Winters spoke simultaneously.

Daoist Quan said "Yes."

Lawrence Winters, however, said "No."

Upon hearing this, Daoist Quan couldn’t help but stare at Lawrence Winters, saying, "...I thought Lawrence Daoist agreed with my opinion."

"I was just explaining to Daoist Wang what a Nine-turn Plum Blossom Formation is..."

Which doesn’t mean I agree with your opinion.

Lawrence Winters didn’t say the next sentence because it was enough to make the point; everyone understood.

Contradicting someone face-to-face could be quite damaging to their reputation.

Daoist Quan also understood, awkwardly laughing, "Then what kind of hidden geomantic formation does Lawrence Daoist think it is?"

Lawrence Winters glanced at Mr. Zhuge.

Mr. Zhuge caught on and said, "How about we write it on our phones and then show everyone together."

"Sure, that sounds fair." Lawrence Winters said with a cheerful smile, taking out his phone from his backpack, opening the notepad, and entering a term.

Mr. Zhuge likewise opened a notepad and entered a term.

However, he used handwriting input.

After both were done, they presented their phones to Daoist Wang and Daoist Quan.

On Mr. Zhuge’s phone’s notepad appeared "Reincarnation Lotus Array."

While on Lawrence Winters’ phone’s notepad appeared "Lotus Reincarnation Formation."

Everyone burst into laughter, "It seems great minds think alike!"

The Reincarnation Lotus Array and the Lotus Reincarnation Formation refer to the same geomantic formation, just with different names in the Celestial Master Sect’s Southern and Northern branches.

Daoist Quan also slapped his head with an "ah," saying, "Right, right, right! How could I forget? The Reincarnation Lotus Array is even more formidable than the Nine-turn Plum Blossom Formation! Additionally, the Reincarnation Lotus Array takes effect quickly, almost within a month, and its impact on people is much greater than that of the Nine-turn Plum Blossom Formation!"

"However..." he looked at Lawrence Winters and Mr. Zhuge with curiosity, "...how did you two come up with this?"

"The Reincarnation Lotus Array is one of the most difficult geomantic formations to set up."

"In terms of difficulty, among the top ten hardest geomantic formations in the Geomantic World, the Reincarnation Lotus Array ranks at least fifth..."

Mr. Zhuge looked cheerfully at Lawrence Winters and said, "Why don’t you go first, Lawrence Daoist, how did you come to think of the Reincarnation Lotus Array?"

Lawrence Winters thought to himself, I thought of the Lotus Reincarnation Formation when I saw the double-layered lotus inside Alice Blythe’s quilt.

That kind of black-and-white double-layered lotus actually has another meaning—it signifies the path of reincarnation.

Layer upon layer, one ring after another, just like endless reincarnation.

She was sure Mr. Zhuge hadn’t lifted Alice Blythe’s quilt to look inside, so in this regard, she was quite impressed by Mr. Zhuge.

At least he didn’t resort to shortcuts like she did, yet he also thought of this geomantic formation.
