While the battle was raging outside, Amon, Li Shi, and Yong Baili traveled through the underground maze. Amon didn't remember the cave they were trekking in but remembered the way. Due to the circumstances, he was not blindfolded this time.
When they arrived at the hidden entrance to the Spring of Life, Li Shi said, "The seal is not breached… How can there be an intruder?"
She turned to Yong Baili, who stood a distance away. Amon was between him and her.
"I don't know, but someone is surely inside. Otherwise, who triggered the alarm?" Yong Baili replied.
"Perhaps the intruder entered through a different entrance," Amon speculated.
"Impossible. One can only enter via this entrance. The enchantment inside made sure of that," Li Shi argued.
"Perhaps the power causing the intrusion is more powerful than the words of power powering this enchantment?" Amon said. "Maybe that's why the alarm sounded. Someone or something broke into the inside room by force."
