Not too far away, Hui Daynight opened his eyes and rubbed his forehead. Accepting the inheritance had been very tiring, and it was time to rest.
Hui Daynight heard a cry of surprise, and he curiously looked up. His pupils shrank when he saw who it was. Lu Yin?
This was the first time Lu Yin's name had appeared in the Daynight clan's ancestral land, and it had quickly shaken the entire ancestral land and even the entire Daynight clan.
Who would have thought that an outsider would be able to accept the Daynight clan's inheritance and quickly climb to the top of the stone tablet? He was about to reach the top and compete with Nightqueen Yanqing and the others.
This had never happened before in the history of the Daynight clan.
Tiankong Daynight, Rou Daynight, and the rest stared at the top of the stone tablet in a daze, as if they had been struck dumb. They could still remember their confrontation in the Astral Combat Academy, where Lu Yin had single-handedly taken on the entire Daynight clan. It had been a long time since that incident, and they had never thought that they would meet this person again.
In the distance, Nightking Zhenwu's pupils shrank as he stared at Lu Yin's image on the stone tablet. "Impossible! He was hit by the Heart Arrow and didn't die?
Impossible! "
Beside him, Starsibyl's eyes lit up, and her fingers subconsciously trembled. She was divining, heading towards an unknown direction. This person could never be divined.
Nightking Zhenwu's expression suddenly changed, and he tore through the void to appear below the stone tablet and in front of the ancient figures. "Junior Nightking Zhenwu greets the seniors of the ancestral land."
The central figure's eyes were turbid, but they contained a supreme dignity. He calmly looked at Nightking Zhenwu. "Return the inheritance stone."
Nightking Zhenwu's expression changed again, and he bowed deeply. "Zhenwu has sinned and lost the inheritance stone. Please punish me, seniors of the ancestral land."
The figures all looked at Nightking Zhenwu, and the central figure spoke in a heavy tone. "It doesn't matter if you lost the inheritance stone. No one in the universe dares to covet our Daynight clan's possessions, but that was in the past." The figure then looked up at the stone tablet. "That child has appeared, and he has inherited our Daynight clan's battle techniques from an outsider. This is a great crime, and it's his crime as well as yours."
Nightking Zhenwu's eyes were filled with hatred. "This junior understands. Please rest assured, senior. This junior will personally kill this person and use his head to wash away the humiliation of my Daynight clan's inheritance stone.."
"That's a story for later!" The central figure shouted. The starry sky trembled, and even the ancestral land shook.
Nightking Zhenwu's body tensed up, and he bowed deeply. "Please enlighten me, senior."
"No matter what happens in the future, at this moment, my ancestral land's stone tablet will not be allowed to be trampled upon by outsiders. Do you understand?" the figure in the center shouted as he stared at Nightking Zhenwu with a powerful pressure.
Nightking Zhenwu was indeed very important to the Daynight clan, as he was one of the people who had the highest chance of becoming a Progenitor. However, Nightking Zhenwu was still a member of the younger generation, and it would be a long time before he could reach the level that these ancient figures feared. At this moment, Nightking Zhenwu had to endure the pressure from his elders.
"Junior understands, and I definitely won't let such a thing happen. Senior, please rest assured." Nightking Zhenwu bowed deeply.
Frostwave Weave's Zenyu Star, in a secret room in King Zishan's palace. Lu Yin did not know that he had caused trouble for Nightking Zhenwu and had shaken the entire Daynight clan. He did not know that once he entered the inheritance, his image would appear on the stone tablet in the Daynight clan's ancestral grounds.
At this moment, he had already dispersed the Nightking's Body, so he did not need to accept this inheritance. He lifted his foot and continued walking forward.
The murals in the corridor were very lifelike, but Lu Yin could not understand them.
Furthermore, after entering the inheritance, the Ghost Monkey did not make any movements. When he thought about it, it was likely that only his spiritual force would enter while his physical body would remain outside.
Lu Yin raised his finger, but unfortunately, he did not have his cosmic ring. Otherwise, he would have thought of a way to copy the murals in the corridor.
At that moment, a strange force appeared above his finger, attempting to break it.
Lu Yin's eyes trembled; it was another battle technique. The Daynight clan had many battle techniques, and they were indeed terrifying.
This battle technique was called Yinwind Finger, and it was even more powerful than the Nightking's Body. The name did not sound like much, but it was very powerful. It cultivated star energy into a yinwind that corroded the enemy's body and could destroy it from the inside.
Lu Yin did not like this battle technique. With his physical strength, if he still needed to rely on this battle technique to fight, then his chances of winning would be very low.
Up until now, none of the Daynight clan experts that he had encountered had used Yinwind Finger.
At this moment, he was not far from the end of the corridor. The further in he went, the more terrifying the battle technique inheritance became.
After taking a few more steps, Lu Yin's spiritual force trembled, and he subconsciously stopped. The spiritual force suppression here was already putting pressure on him, and it would not be easy to pass through. However, he could still pass through it if he took a break.
Black and white alternated in front of his eyes as the Daynight Fist appeared once more, attempting to blast Lu Yin away. Lu Yin did not care about the Daynight Fist, but in the next moment, all of the battle techniques that he had encountered before began to attack him, trying to push him out of the corridor.
Lu Yin roared and subconsciously used his Nightking's Roar to disperse all of the battle techniques. He then raised his foot and stepped forward once more.
A gust of wind swept past, and Lu Yin saw a figure cultivating in front of him. This person was actually cultivating the Daynight Restoration Technique.
The Daynight Restoration Technique was located near the deepest part of the corridor, and currently, only Zhanlong Daynight had learned it in the entire Daynight clan. It was not that no one had received this inheritance, but only Zhanlong Daynight had been able to successfully cultivate it.
Nightqueen Yanqing had received the Daynight Restoration Technique's inheritance based on her innate gift, but unfortunately, she had not been able to learn it.
Nightking Zhenwu had also received the Daynight Restoration Technique's inheritance, but it was unknown whether he had learned it or not.
Lu Yin was one of the few people in the history of the Daynight clan who had received the Daynight Restoration Technique's inheritance, and he was also confident that he could learn it. This was because the Arcane Art of Life and Death that he had successfully cultivated was able to suppress the Daynight Restoration Technique.
The Daynight Restoration Technique increased a person's recovery ability, and once successfully cultivated, they would possess a recovery ability that far surpassed that of a normal person. However, the Arcane Art of Life and Death suppressed a person's recovery ability and stimulated one's potential at the cost of one's recovery ability. Once successfully cultivated, one's potential would explode, and one's strength would skyrocket.
The Arcane Art of Life and Death was the natural nemesis of the Daynight Restoration Technique.
Lu Yin continued forward. He could not cultivate the Daynight Restoration Technique, as it was like poison to him.
In the Daynight clan's ancestral grounds, Lu Yin's image on the stone tablet surpassed Zhuo Daynight, Nightqueen Yanqing, and the others. He was now second only to Zhanlong Daynight.
Zhuo Daynight opened her eyes and looked at the image on the stone tablet. She was excited. You're not dead!
Nightqueen Yanqing bit her lip. Why?
Why was he everywhere?
She had been defeated in the Astral Combat Academy, she had lost the battle on Planet Pyrolyte, and she had been nothing more than a passerby in the Cosmic Sea Continent War. But this person had shone through the heavens, and even her elder brother had gone out of his way to hunt him down. Now, this person had actually appeared in the Daynight clan's ancestral grounds. Why?
A trace of blood trickled down the corner of Nightqueen Yanqing's mouth, but she did not feel anything.
The battle for the ancestral grounds' stone tablets had attracted countless geniuses from the Daynight clan, but at this moment, all of them could only raise their heads and stare blankly at Lu Yin's image. There were only two people above him: Zhanlong Daynight and Nightking Zhenwu.
Everyone knew that Zhanlong Daynight would be surpassed sooner or later.
Nightking Zhenwu's face was gloomy. He did not believe that Lu Yin could surpass him, but it was also a humiliation for Lu Yin to surpass all the other members of the Daynight clan.
At this moment, Zhanlong Daynight returned. He glanced at the stone tablet and then tossed a drop of blood into the inheritance stone in the sky. He was about to begin accepting the inheritance as well.
Inheritance was different from battle. He admitted that he was far from being Lu Yin's opponent and had been left far behind. However, this was the Daynight clan's inheritance ground, and outsiders had to pay a higher price to receive the inheritance. Zhanlong Daynight, on the other hand, had it much easier than Lu Yin. He did not believe that he would lose to Lu Yin here.
Lu Yin's thoughts were the same as Zhanlong Daynight's. He felt that it was strange, as the Daynight Restoration Technique's spiritual force suppressed even Lu Yin's spiritual force. Zhanlong Daynight had learned this technique long ago, and he might have learned it when he was a Limiteer. No, he might have learned it when he was a Melder.
Lu Yin did not believe it.
The only explanation was that the Daynight clan's inheritance was different from Lu Yin's. Lu Yin had to take one step at a time, while the Daynight clan's situation was different.
Lu Yin's guess was correct. The peak techniques at the end of the corridor were what had attracted the Daynight clan to enter. In fact, if not for this, the Daynight clan would not have needed to enter the corridor at all. The corridor contained many battle techniques, and as long as any Daynight clan member stepped into the corridor, a matching battle technique would appear.
Zhanlong Daynight had comprehended the Daynight Restoration Technique.
If the others had not been able to accept the inheritance at the beginning, they could still walk further in and receive the inheritance once they reached the end of the corridor.
Lu Yin did not accept the Daynight Restoration Technique, so he continued walking deeper. He wanted to see what other techniques there were.
One step, two steps, three steps … He walked seven steps in a row without receiving any techniques, but the spiritual force suppression he was enduring was unparalleled, and he was almost unable to bear it.
The Technocracy was on the brink of death, and the Arcane Art of Life and Death had stimulated his potential. Lu Yin's spiritual force had grown once again, and he was confident that he would not lose out to the Ten Arbiters. Even Nightking Zhenwu had only been able to reach this position when he had become one of the Ten Arbiters!
Back in the Daynight clan's ancestral grounds, Zhanlong Daynight had comprehended the inheritance, which had inspired the confidence of many Daynight clan members. Even though the Nightking clan hated Zhanlong Daynight, they had no choice but to rely on him to defeat Lu Yin.
However, Lu Yin's image had surpassed Zhanlong Daynight's, and he was now on the stone tablet, second only to Nightking Zhenwu.
Nightking Zhenwu's brows rose. Was this unexpected?
It shouldn't be. This person had only cultivated for less than ten years, but he was already strong enough to fight Nightking Zhenwu. Every time they met, Lu Yin's strength would increase by leaps and bounds. During the battle for the General Appointment Platform, Lu Yin had even used the Nightking Heaven-Splitting Technique and the Heart Arrow secret technique. Even the Daynight clan members who were second only to Nightking Zhenwu would not be able to do such a thing, let alone Zhanlong Daynight.
Even Xia Tian, who was ranked first on the Top 100 Rankings, could not force Lu Yin to such an extent. Lu Yin was still alive, and if he made a comeback, his strength would definitely increase. The next time they fought, it would not be easy to use the Heart Arrow secret technique to launch a sneak attack.
It was normal for Zhanlong Daynight to be surpassed, but it was a pity that Lu Yin would never be able to surpass Zhanlong Daynight's position. Lu Yin did not even know where Zhanlong Daynight was, as few people in the history of the Daynight clan had ever reached that position.
When Lu Yin surpassed Zhanlong Daynight, Zhanlong Daynight was no longer able to catch up.
Countless members of the Daynight clan sighed, as they had actually been suppressed by an outsider.
Lu Yin could not advance any further in the corridor. His vision darkened, and everything became blurry. The moment he took a step forward, the spiritual force suppression suddenly underwent a qualitative change, and it even seemed to solidify. He knew that this was a battle technique, and its name was Nightfall.
