The Quest for Immortality-Chapter 883: Unsealing (4)
Chapter 883 -614: Unsealing_4
Zheng Fang increasingly felt that Mo Hua, this “Junior Brother,” had an extraordinary talent for understanding Formations, and he came to acknowledge it quite a bit.
Taking the opportunity, Mo Hua asked,
"Then suppose I have a Jade Slip that I want to seal and keep others from seeing, how would I do that?”
"Sealing a Jade Slip?”
"Mhm.” Mo Hua nodded.
Zheng Fang explained, “Actually, it’s very simple. It’s just about covering it with another layer of ‘Formation Patterns,’ concealing the content, and then leaving a ‘Sealing Pattern’ to act as the key
"Sealing Pattern?” Mo Hua blinked, “Is that a ‘Secret Pattern’?”
Zheng Fang shook his head, “It’s not the same. Cultivators who don’t understand Formations, or Formation Masters who aren’t proficient in Prime Magnetic Formation, often confuse them, referring to these types of Formation Patterns as ‘Secret Patterns
"But in the orthodox lineages, these namings are very strict, and you can’t get them wrong
Sealing Patterns’ are used to undo ‘sealing,’ while ‘Secret Patterns’ are for decrypting ‘encryption.'”
"When a Jade Slip is sealed, you can’t see the text in the Jade Slip.”
"When a Jade Slip is encrypted, you can see the text inside the slip, but the text you see is actually ‘disguised
"Both methods are based on the same Formation principles, but their forms are quite different
With sudden understanding and admiration, Mo Hua exclaimed,

"You know so much!”
Zheng Fang’s face flushed slightly, and feeling proud, he spilled everything he knew about “sealing” and “encryption” like pouring beans from a bamboo tube:
"As for sealing, it involves adding an ‘Unfixed Magnetic Pattern’ over a complete Primordial Magnet Formation, forming a dense and symmetrical ‘Magnetic Ink Mist’ to cover the real content inside the Jade Slip
"Encryption is different. It involves twisting the ‘Magnetic Stream’ between the Fixed Magnetic Pattern and the Unfixed Magnetic Pattern, that is the ‘Secondary Thunder Flow,’ causing the exhibited text by the Magnetic Ink to become distorted
"To unseal, one must decode the ‘Sealing Pattern’ and release the ‘Unfixed Magnetic Pattern.'”
"To decrypt, one must decrypt the ‘Secret Pattern’ and correct the ‘Secondary Thunder Pattern
…
Zheng Fang spoke fluently, finishing his explanation in one breath.
Although some of these things were memorized verbatim, which he himself didn’t quite understand, he had indeed learned them extremely thoroughly.
Mo Hua looked at Zheng Fang with new respect.
Indeed, among any three people walking, I can find my teacher.
Being humble and eager to learn, looking more and asking questions, there are always gains.
Mo Hua returned loaded with knowledge, and began excitedly pondering over how to “unseal.”
The Sever Gold Jade Slip from Sever Gold Sect was blank on the surface, covered with mist, but on closer inspection, there were fine specks of Magnetic Ink.
This was the “sealing.”
Understanding the principle, finding the “Sealing Pattern” to unseal gave him a direction.
The method was also quite simple.
Both Jade Slips were old, and Boss Jiang definitely consulted them often.
During consultation, he would undoubtedly use the “Sealing Pattern” to unseal.
As long as it was unsealed, traces of the Magnetic Stream would inevitably be left.
Other Cultivators might not see these traces, but Mo Hua, with the algorithm fused with the Heavenly secret, could detect some clues.
To detect the trace of the Magnetic Stream is to detect the trace of the Secondary Thunder Flow.
Then, based on experience, simplify the Secondary Thunder Flow to the Secondary Thunder Pattern.
But this Secondary Thunder Pattern was a simplification of Mo Hua’s own making, which might not be precise.
Mo Hua also needed to define some similar Secondary Thunder Patterns from his own “Secondary Thunder Pattern Library” and try them one by one…
Second Grade’s Secondary Thunder Patterns all fell within the same category.
Among the hundreds of Secondary Thunder Patterns, there would always be one “Secondary Thunder Pattern” that was the “Sealing Pattern” to unseal the Sever Gold Jade Slip.
It didn’t matter if it was not found; as long as the category was determined, he could grope for changes and try each one in turn.
And the Secondary Thunder Pattern, not entirely considered a Formation Pattern, had no standardization and was not entirely precise either.
As long as the general context was similar, it could roughly be used as a “Sealing Pattern.”
It’s like two keys, which, despite some differences, can still unlock locks.
The only problem was that this process of deduction could not be done on the Taoist Stele in the Sea of Consciousness.
It had to be attempted in reality, trying to merge Tricky Calculation with Calculation.
Hence, Mo Hua could only proceed with extreme caution, trying a little at a time, avoiding excessive strain on the Sea of Consciousness and the potential for Divine Sense fractures when Computations amplified Calculations…
Days later, Mo Hua, through the fusion of algorithms, sensed the trace of the Secondary Thunder Flow.
Mo Hua spent half a day simplifying these Secondary Thunder Flows into “Secondary Thunder Patterns.”
After that, Mo Hua took another two days to pick out several “thunder-like” Secondary Thunder Patterns from his own Secondary Thunder Pattern Jade Slip.
Mo Hua tried these “Secondary Thunder Patterns” one by one as “Sealing Patterns” in an attempt to unseal the Sever Gold Jade Slip.
The results were quite smooth.
After more than a dozen attempts, Mo Hua heard a faint “sizzle” as if a weak Thunder Flow surged and the Magnetic Stream induction circulated.
Simultaneously, the mist in the Sever Gold Jade Slip dissipated.
On the Jade Slip, the Unfixed Magnetic Patterns used for sealing transformed and faded away, revealing the five gilt characters at the top of the Jade Slip:
"Gold-Slicing Imperial Sword Technique!”
