"We're close, we're about to walk out of the formation."
Chen Yang turned back to Shangguan Yun with a smile and continued walking forward.
He looked ahead, where, just around a corner, lay the life gate of the Nine Palaces Illusionary Formation.
Following the path they had taken before, once they reached the life gate, the formation would break, and all the illusions would dissipate into nothing.
As Chen Yang stepped onto the life gate, the scene before his eyes suddenly shifted.
The beautiful Peach Blossom Forest disappeared, leaving behind only a belt of knee-high shrubs, uneven and mostly withered, without a trace of the former beauty of the Peach Blossom Forest.
Within the thicket stood sixteen three-meter-tall stones, each with a different shape and seemingly without any pattern.
However, the stones were arranged very neatly in four rows and columns, with a ten-meter gap between every two adjacent stones.
