The preparations for the Heaven and Earth Bind were proceeding smoothly.
Milo's previous clearing operations had been rather outstanding. The initial batch of Exchange Beasts sent up the mountain did a remarkable job; each Alchemist's special Marker was placed in its precise position. These Markers served as signal towers for transmitting Spirit Vision. With these Markers dividing Dawn Peak into interconnected regions, each region was controlled by an Alchemist's Exchange Beast.
No one could escape this formation. It was truly the Heaven and Earth Bind.
The Exchange Beasts played a significant role in this array. However, the most critical factor for the success of this Heaven and Earth Bind Alchemy Array was not the strength of the Exchange Beasts but the distance between the special Markers.
