Da Shen looked grave. "What's going on now?"
"The formation eye shattered, and the formation collapsed. If I'm right, the formation drawn out by the Four-Nine Exquisite Formation was the Four Symbols Infinite Grand Formation. Only, whoever set it up altered it."
"A normal Four Symbols Infinite Grand Formation only needs to connect the spaces in the four directions. But the person who set this one up drew legs on a snake, insisting on adding something that had no business being there."
At that moment, inspiration struck Da Shen, and he seemed to grasp something. "You mean those rooms with mirrors?"
Su Jiu nodded. "Those rooms were dangerous, but they were also where this formation's eyes lay. As long as the intruders could emerge from the rooms and connect all the paths through space and time, the formation would break on its own."
The other Enforcement Hall disciples finally understood as well. "Doesn't that mean the formation is about to be dispelled?"
Su Jiu said nothing, merely staring at the stone door that had yet to open fully.
Dimly, she seemed to sense Senior Brother Ning's presence, along with those of Yang Guo and the others.
Several breaths later, the space shook even more violently, and the stone door finally opened all the way.
More than a dozen people emerged one after another from the brilliant light. Only at the very end did Su Jiu see Ning Fan.
At the sight of Ning Fan's somewhat pale face, Su Jiu pressed her lips together. There was no doubt about it-her senior brother was injured.
His clothes were dark, so even the blood staining them was not particularly noticeable. The smell on him, however, could not deceive anyone.
Su Jiu's gaze flickered, and she activated her Otherworldly Eyes. He really is injured.
