Light suddenly flared out from beneath John's feet, catching his attention. He gazed at the ground around him, which was now littered with glowing daggers. The daggers formed a complex formation diagram, something that John had not noticed as he was too busy trying to lock onto the youth's location. Each dagger was also carved with intricate formation runes, which also began to glow.
The daggers lit up in unison, linking up and forming a formation diagram, which flared with gray light, barely noticeable within the darkness. John felt a pressure press down on his body, while ropes of gray light shot out from within the diagram, instantly locking onto his arms and legs. The ropes of light dragged him onto his knees, its power shockingly high.
