Hearing Bao Xiaotou's words, Ye Lin was utterly speechless.
Ye Lin then selectively ignored the fellow's words and asked, "I'm trapped in a grand formation right now, and it looks pretty powerful. I can't find the formation's core, and I can't even see a single person. How should I deal with this?"
"What?"
Ye Lin's words left Bao Xiaotou completely dumbfounded.
He considered himself somewhat accomplished in formations, a true prodigy of the formation path, but wasn't Ye Lin's question far too beyond the syllabus?
The grand formation was quite strong, the surroundings were all Void, there was not even a human shadow, and the formation's core was nowhere to be seen.
Couldn't he take a proper look at what kind of information he had just given him?
"Other than that, do you have any useful information?"
After a moment of silence, Bao Xiaotou spoke again.
"Useful information?"
Looking at the three avatars fighting bloodily around him, Ye Lin raised his head toward the pitch-black Starry Sky.
"My vital essence is continuously draining away."
"Your vital essence is draining? They're trying to refine you completely. Hold on, keep enduring for a little longer. Let me think."
After saying that, Bao Xiaotou fell silent.
Ahead, the slaughter among the giant beasts grew even fiercer. One after another, they rushed toward Ye Lin, only to be stopped outside by the three avatars.
Avatars possessed no vital essence, so there was naturally no question of it draining away.
As long as Ye Lin remained standing still, he could greatly slow the rate at which his vital essence was draining away.
But clearly, this could not go on forever.
He had to find a way to break the deadlock.
"I found... found it. For this kind of formation, uh... I don't have a solution."
