Jiang Liu checked and found no sign of leakage before continuing to trace the stabilizing formation.
Only as he traced the stabilizing formation this time did Jiang Liu realize why the Entrapment Formation had seemed considerably stronger earlier.
It turned out to be because his primal qi had changed.
His primal qi now contained not only ordinary primal qi and Saintly Sky Art primal qi, but also spiritual power.
That was why formations that relied on primal qi as their main foundation had changed so dramatically.
More importantly, he could perceive every change that occurred while he traced a formation.
That allowed him to trace formations in one seamless sweep, and they were more powerful once completed.
After finishing the stabilizing formation, Jiang Liu pressed on without pause, beginning to trace the Gathering Qi Formation.
Only after overlaying the Gathering Qi Formation on the stabilizing formation did Jiang Liu have time to look around.
In the distance, Ming Yan's aura had dwindled to almost nothing. It was barely perceptible now and would probably vanish completely before long.
Dark clouds suddenly blanketed the sky overhead. An enormous face appeared in an instant, accompanied by bolts of lightning and rolling thunder.
One of those thunderbolts suddenly struck toward Ming Yan and the Fire-Winged Monkey.
The Fire-Winged Monkey had been raising its staff to continue attacking Ming Yan when every hair on its body stood on end. It immediately darted backward, retreating from Ming Yan's side.
The thunderbolt struck straight down at Ming Yan.
After taking that thunderous attack from the Heavenly Dao head-on, Ming Yan's aura vanished completely.
Then Jiang Liu saw a wisp of pale purple gas drift toward the sky.
The enormous face high above opened its mouth and swallowed that wisp of pale purple gas in a single gulp.
