The Sun reached the zenith in the sky. It meant the time for opening the array had come. Commander Qian and the Array Master arrived in the sky above the gates.
The Array Master began to unlock the array and create a small entrance in the curtain of energy. While his colleague worked, Commander Qian issued a word of caution.
"Everyone should note that the Spatial Isolation Array will remain open only for three hours. If you fail to exit the Rift before the array closes, you will be stuck inside the array for another month."
Commander Qian's warning alarmed many but deterred none. Quite a few of them had prepared sufficient rations and they were confident of getting out in time.
A few breaths later, the Path Finder working on the array succeeded in making the entrance. He nodded to Commander Qian and two more Path Finders joined him to guard the entrance of the array.
