The formation diagram unfolded.
Using his Divine Sense technique as his eyes and his extraordinary comprehension as his mind, Lu Changfeng directly "observed" and "calculated" the true pathways beneath the chaotic primal energy of this place!
Within his closed-eyed perception, the currents of the stone forest, once fraught with hidden killing intent, began to reveal discernible patterns.
Countless lines of energy crisscrossed, shifting between life and death. At last, an exceedingly obscure "passage," like a faint trail of starlight in the dark of night, gradually emerged within his sea of consciousness!
"Please wait here a moment."
Lu Changfeng's eyes snapped open, a flash of black and white radiance vanishing from their depths.
Without hesitation, he stepped into the forest of grotesque, menacing rocks.
Li Longji, Xue Chongjian, and the others felt their hearts tighten, their eyes fixed on his movements.
They knew how dangerous this formation was-the Eight Formations Stone Forest was no ordinary formation. It had already fused with the primal energy of the earth veins inside Hu Pass's mountain, sustaining itself endlessly. Within it stood twenty-eight small stone peaks, secretly corresponding to the Twenty-Eight Mansions of the heavens, while its overall arrangement followed the principles of the nine palaces and eight trigrams. The complexity of its transformations was unparalleled.
The moment a living creature entered and disturbed its energy, the formation would activate. Driven by the earth veins, stones would shift and peaks would turn, sealing off all eight directions. At best, the intruder would be swallowed by clouds and mist, lost forever; at worst, its killing mechanisms would awaken, and the stone peaks would grind them into pulp!
Yet at that moment, the formation was unusually quiet.
The terrifying spectacle they had expected-roaring winds, gloomy mists, shifting stones, and moving peaks-never appeared!
Li Longji exchanged a glance
