Through their explorations over these past days, the four brothers had all discovered the secret of this formation.
"This man is truly too vicious. This formation has only one path of life!" Toad cried weakly. "That is to say, only when there is one brother left among the four of us can this formation be broken!"
"What he said was true. He wants to watch the four of us brothers kill one another and wear away our fortune," the man in black said hoarsely.
Clearly, the grand formation laid by the shadow was meant to erode their fortune and trap these four brothers to death.
From his deductions, he had seen that the four brothers were anything but ordinary.
A centipede might die, yet refuse to stiffen.
At the level the four brothers had reached, with great fortune protecting them, even if they were killed outright—
They might still revive through some twist of fate and make a comeback.
Therefore, the shadow's first priority was to deal with the fortune upon them.
Only after exhausting their fortune and then killing them could he truly be rid of these troubles.
"I can't hold on anymore!"
After saying that, Toad collapsed onto the ground.
His entire body trembled uncontrollably. It was the sign of total exhaustion.
It was not just him. Yi Feng and the other two were the same, all hovering at the brink of collapse.
"Toad, hold on. We'll definitely think of something!" Yi Feng encouraged him.
"Ah..."
Toad lifted his head and let out a soft sigh.
Before his eyes appeared the scene of the brothers' first meeting.
The days when they drank and laughed together surfaced before him.
The battles where they explored secret realms together and faced powerful enemies emerged as well.
Every moment of the past
