The green poisonous fog at the edge of the Sunset Forest slowly closed behind Lan Tian, drooping down again like a pushed-aside curtain.
He stood on the dirt road outside the forest, turning back for a glance in the direction of the Icefire Basin. Power from the Blue Silver God reached out from his palm, establishing a momentary remote resonance with the core eye of the Void Concealment Formation.
That spatial barrier folded into the dimensional space operated steadily and reliably in his perception, like a sealed container sunk deep into dark water, isolating all external prying eyes and touches.
Yet another layer of perceptual feedback concerned him more.
That layer of spatial barrier could not only conceal the basin, but it could also perceive everything outside like an eye submerged in deep water. When the Blue Silver God Power maintained a connection with the array core, he could clearly sense all movement within dozens of paces around the Icefire Basin—whether anyone was approaching, whether any creature was wandering near the area covered by the array, and whether anyone was trying to find the entrance.
Those pieces of information transmitted into his mind through spatial folding, clear and accurate, as though a part of his own body extended into that space.
He previously had Blue Silver Grass and Blue Silver Vines as sensory extensions spread across the continent; that was his third eye, wide in coverage but limited in precision.
Now the Void Concealment Formation was his fourth eye, specifically used to monitor all movement around the Icefire Basin with extremely high precision that could not be fooled.
After confirming that no abnormal aura was approaching the vicinity of the basin, he completely set his mind at ease, patted Xiao Mei resting on his shoulder, and took steps toward Heaven
