Ling Han was struck by a sudden realization.
These paths didn't actually exist as a trial for cultivators. Instead, they were here as a means to teach cultivators about formations, from the most foundational stages to more complex stages.
The foot of the mountain allowed cultivators to grasp the foundations of formations. Afterward, the formations would slowly increase in difficulty and teach cultivators how to combine these foundational elements into more complicated and high-level structures. Following this increase in complexity, the formations would naturally become more powerful as well.
A smile appeared on Ling Han's face. Even if he eventually failed to obtain the Chaos Source Rock, this trip would still be worth it.
He had already developed a little understanding of Saint-level formations.
"This isn't the right attitude; you definitely have to find that Chaos Source Rock!" Small Tower exclaimed in discontent.
