"You're right."
After receiving Xuan Yuanjun's answer, Huang Xiao's face filled with delight. "Then can we use this formation?"
"Yes."
Seeing Huang Xiao's overwhelming delight, Xuan Yuanjun continued, "There's no hurry. We'll probably have to stay here for a while."
Huang Xiao took a deep breath and calmed himself.
Qingfeng and the other two did not quite understand, but they could tell from Huang Xiao's expression that this formation was extraordinary.
Once Huang Xiao briefly explained it to them, all three were astonished.
To think such an astonishing formation existed in this world. It was truly inconceivable.
"I never imagined he would leave a formation like this here. He certainly put quite some thought into it," Ji Xuanying said.
"It can only be used for one year every thousand years." Xuan Yuanjun smiled. "The price he paid actually wasn't all that great."
"Senior, what do you mean?" Huang Xiao's heart gave a jolt.
"It takes a thousand years of accumulation to activate the formation once, and it lasts for one year," Xuan Yuanjun said. "It's somewhat simplified compared to my formation."
"And it happens to be ready for use now? What a coincidence." Huang Xiao had not expected such a coincidence.
It took a thousand years of accumulation to activate it once, and he had happened upon that very opportunity.
"The last activation should have been over eight hundred years ago," Xuan Yuanjun said.
"Ah?" Huang Xiao's eyes widened as he exclaimed, "Senior, doesn't that mean a thousand years haven't passed yet? Why did you say this formation could be used?"
"Huang Xiao, Senior Xuanyuan created this formation. Who could understand it better than he does?" Ji Shidao smiled. "Over eight hundred years isn't all that far from a thousand. I'm sure Senior has a way to resolve the shortfall."
