"The formation was not the only one?" Bi Fan's words made him, Xi Jing, and the other Formation Masters frown deeply.
They were Formation Masters of no small standing, yet none of them had sensed that the escaping fluctuations came from more than one formation. Hearing the boy say so, they couldn't help but be surprised.

Xuan Chen paused, then nodded.
