Chen Fei glanced around and found no trace of formations or restrictions. It seemed this great hall had only been arranged with a Ninth-Order Grand Array on the outside, while there were no defenses within.
That was only normal. After all, if someone could break through the outer perimeter and enter the hall, then no matter what restrictions were set up inside, they would probably be useless.
Of course, there were also some cultivators who, in order to keep their dwellings from being disturbed, would add self-destructive Traits into their formations. Once the formation broke, everything inside would be destroyed along with it.
But since there were methods to lay formations, there were naturally also secret arts to dismantle them. Even if a grand array truly possessed self-destructive Traits, the one breaking the formation would have other ways to prevent those Traits from being triggered.
As for someone like Chen Fei, who had stepped into the hall without even breaking the formation, it was even more impossible for him to trigger the formation's self-destructive Traits. A grand array without a cultivator presiding over it was like a dead thing, not even as sensitive as an Artifact Spirit.
