Before the formation's attack could reach him, Lu Xiaotian used the beam of light radiating from the relic bead to break through the obstruction in front of him and arrive elsewhere. As a result, the formation's attacks kept landing behind him.
Lu Xiaotian continued shifting from place to place inside the iceberg. After initially dealing with the formation's attacks, all that remained was to follow the fluctuations of the formation and find the location of the Netherghost Ice Thunder.

Even as he followed these silken threads of a network, searching onward, the effort left him somewhat weary. Still, it hadn't been entirely fruitless. At the very least, he had found the paths along which the formation operated, and gained an increasingly clear understanding of its workings.
He had also sensed roughly where the Netherghost Ice Thunder was. But sensing its location was one thing; reaching it safely was another.
Even with Lu Xiaotian's strength, darting and shifting through the formation had taken a heavy toll. But by now, he could leave it safely. The beams radiating from the seven relic beads struck different corners of the iceberg. The light refracted more than ten times through the crystal-clear ice, shifting direction with every reflection.
