Chapter 529: Almost Reach the Central Area
Aldrian then landed in front of the statue of a man. This man had dragon horns on his forehead, indicating that he was a human form of a dragon. What made Aldrian stop and land in front of this statue was the symbol on the man’s robe—it was the symbol of the Silver Lightning Dragon Clan.
"Long Tianlei, the third patriarch of the Silver Lightning Dragon Clan," Aldrian thought after reading the statue’s information using his Eyes of the Heaven.
He looked at the statue again, observed it for a moment, and touched it before trying to inject his energy into it. However, he did not trigger anything like the awakening of a will. Instead, he felt a kind of stored divine energy inside the statue.
He raised his eyebrows as he sensed that the energy seemed to be connected somewhere through the ground. He tried to follow it, but stopped, as he realized the energy was actually connected to other statues, forming some kind of network.
He couldn’t trace the full extent of the network, as it stretched all the way to the horizon where many more statues stood. The energy was also connected to the deeper part of the central area, where it seemed to link with something located in that place.
As he thought earlier, these statues were not arranged carelessly. They had been placed in designated positions to create some kind of formation. What kind of formation? He did not know, but it was truly complex—so much so that it amazed him.
He sighed, slightly disappointed. He had hoped he might be able to awaken some wills in this place so he could speak with them and ask for information. But it seemed these statues did not contain any will, and only served as foundations for the formation.
The divine energy connecting each statue was proof of that.
After concluding there was nothing more he needed to check, he released his hand from the statue and looked up at it. He wanted to know what had happened to the Silver Lightning Dragon Clan, but it seemed he would have to set that aside for now. He then flew off in another direction to observe the other statues.

After more than four hours of observing the statues, Aldrian returned to the rest of the group. They also seemed to be examining the statues, hoping to find something of value in this place, but they had found nothing.
