One day later, Shang Rong arrived. He had created a white sun in an attempt to break through the flow diversion diagram, but it had been scattered by the diagram and bombarded the entire space of the Nine Cauldrons. It had affected some people and injured quite a few. Not long after, the Junior Arrow Saint arrived. His aura was much weaker than Fan Shun's. He had been lucky to have survived the Sovereign Tournament, and his strength was not much stronger than Hong Ying's.
The Junior Arrow Saint had not come to steal Lu Yin's destiny, but rather to see Lu Yin's. He knew that the Imprinter would arrive soon, and Lu Yin would not be a match for them no matter what.
Xiaoqing had also arrived, and she seemed to be very interested.
Although Lu Yin was anxious, he did not panic. He had expected this to happen before entering the Daosource Sect's ruins, and he had already prepared a backup plan. Now, it was just a matter of who the Imprinter would be. There should not be too many powerhouses entering at first, but as long as one Imprinter failed, Lu Yin would not have much time left. Once those old freaks with power levels in the hundreds of thousands were lured over, Lu Yin would not be able to defend himself without any external defensive items.
Half a day later, the first Imprinter arrived.
Although there were many Emissaries in the Sixth Mainland, their statuses were extremely high, and it was difficult for the juniors to come into contact with them. Emissaries also needed to cultivate, so it was not easy to disturb them.
The first Imprinter had arrived by chance, and it was an old woman.
"It's Senior Ling."
"Senior Ling from the Di family. She left the Di family after Ancestor Di died."
…
The old woman ignored the youths' discussions and looked at the third cauldron. "Fifth Mainland's junior, I'll give you a chance. Come out."
Everyone looked at the third cauldron. Now that the Imprinter had arrived, they felt that Lu Yin would not be able to escape.
There was no response, so Lu Yin continued to absorb the cauldron aura.
"Junior, don't make me attack and damage our relationship with the Fifth Mainland." The old woman's tone became more severe.
Fan Shun respectfully replied, "Senior Ling, please act as soon as possible. Lu Yin's time in the Daosource Sect's ruins is almost up. Once his time is up, he can leave immediately."
The old woman's gaze was sinister as she stepped forward and pressed down with a single hand. The void shattered, and the attack disappeared before everyone's eyes.
At that moment, Lu Yin looked up and remained unmoved. He watched as the old woman's attack emerged from the Astral Source Universe and landed on the diagram. The power of the attack then transformed into lines that bombarded the diagram in all directions.
.. She could not break through it?
How could this be?
It wasn't just her; Fan Shun and the others were also stunned. That was an Imprinter, and beating them up should have been child's play for him. Why couldn't he break through Lu Yin's sourcebox array?
The space within the nine cauldrons was unstable to begin with. Now that the old woman had interfered with it, the void was filled with cracks. One of the careless cultivators was swallowed up by the cracks, leaving behind only a miserable scream and a trail of blood. It was a horrifying sight.
Everyone's faces paled as they slowly retreated.
The old woman gritted her teeth, and strange changes appeared on her body. She had activated her bloodline, a cultivation method unique to the Blood Ancestor Realm. She struck the diagram again, but she still couldn't break it.
Lu Yin's gaze turned cold. The greatest advantage that the Sixth Mainland's cultivators had over the Fifth Mainland's cultivators was their natural suppression. In addition, they also had the special cultivation methods and imprints that the Three Progenitor Region had given them, which made them seem stronger than the Fifth Mainland's cultivators. But in reality, without these advantages, the Sixth Mainland's cultivators would be at a disadvantage when fighting against the Fifth Mainland's cultivators.
The cultivation method of the imprint not only limited their future, but also made them dependent on it. How could this old woman break through his Energy Channeling Diagram without relying on the imprint? Even without the help of external items, he could still fight against an Emissary with a combat power of 600,000.
He was referring to an Emissary from the Astral Tree.
The old woman descended and said, "External items. This kid must have used some external item."
In the distance, Fan Shun and the rest had ugly expressions. They had also guessed that Lu Yin must have used some external item. Otherwise, how could an Enlighter at most block an Emissary's attack?
How long had it been since the Sovereign Competition?
They did not believe that Lu Yin had improved so much.
"Senior Ling, if we work together, we'll definitely be able to break through," Shang Rong said.
The old woman frowned. "If I can't break through, then what's the point of you juniors attacking?"
Shang Rong clenched his fists, but he did not dare to retort.
"Fine, let's just wait. Let's wait for another Imprinter to come, and then we'll definitely be able to break through," the old woman said.
"I'm just afraid that Lu Yin's time is up," Shang Rong said anxiously.
The old woman stared at Shang Rong. "Can't we find him outside of the Daosource Sect's ruins?"
Shang Rong did not say anything else, as there were some things that only they knew. How could the Sixth Mainland be willing to live in the Outerverse of the Fifth Mainland? As long as they knew that Lu Yin was here, things would be much easier.
Lu Yin heard this, and his eyes flickered. These people from the Sixth Mainland had not given up on seizing control of the Fifth Mainland, but they had hidden their intentions.
If there was one Qingtan, then there would be ten or even a hundred Qingtans. How interesting. Then, let's see who's stronger.
Another day passed, and more and more people gathered within the Nine Cauldrons. Fan Shun, Shang Rong, and the rest watched anxiously as the second Imprinter finally arrived.
Fan Shun was delighted to see Senior Chao, and he hurried forward to explain the situation. Senior Chao was from the Fan Realm and was an expert from the Azure Realm.
Senior Chao looked at the third cauldron. "Even an Imprinter can't break through?"
He looked at Senior Ling. "Why didn't you use your imprint?"
The old woman answered, "Not at the moment."
After the Di Ancestor's death, some of the Di family's experts had died, while others had left. Only a few had remained behind. The old woman had left the Di family in search of other powerhouses, but she had yet to join them.
Senior Chao said in a low voice, "Let's work together and break it." After he finished speaking, an imprint appeared behind him. It was a slovenly old man dressed in a long green robe and holding a wooden staff. This person was the Imprint powerhouse of the Green Transformation Realm, Esteemed Qing Hua.
Guru Qing Hua and Senior Chao's strength, which had been lower than the old woman's, instantly rose to surpass her. They attacked the diagram under her envious gaze, and the old woman struck out with a palm at the same time.
Within the third cauldron, Lu Yin sighed. It was too late; these Imprinters had arrived faster than he had expected. The third cauldron had absorbed a portion of the Imprinters, and the rest could only wait until the next cauldron.
There was a loud boom as the diagram shattered. Fan Shun and the rest were delighted.
Senior Chao and the old woman looked towards the third cauldron, wanting to grab Lu Yin. However, all they saw were Jian Ru and the others who had fainted. Lu Yin was nowhere to be seen.
The two landed in the third cauldron. Where was he?
"Seal the exit!" Senior Chao seemed to have thought of something and immediately shouted, but it was too late. Lu Yin swept past everyone and left the Nine Cauldrons' space.
The moment the diagram shattered, Lu Yin used the Plan Secret Art to leave. Even the two Imprinters had not been able to see him clearly.
Fan Shun and the rest hurriedly sealed the exit, but Lu Yin had already left.
After absorbing two complete cauldrons, he still had a third cauldron's qi, which meant that he could use the three suns.
After leaving the Nine Cauldrons' space, Lu Yin calculated that he still had more than half the time, so he headed towards Heaven's Pit.
The Nine Cauldrons
This space would definitely attract even more of the Sixth Mainland's older generation powerhouses, and it might even attract old freaks like the Celestial Imprinters. Lu Yin did not plan on going any closer.
After Lu Yin left the Nine Cauldrons' space, there were naturally people heading there as well, but not a single person was able to detect his presence.
Lu Yin entered the space where Heaven's Pit was located through a pillar of light.
When he looked up, he saw that it was not Heaven's Pit above him, but rather spatial cracks that flowed like water. The first time he had come here, he had been shocked. This space had been specially cut out, and if there was a problem with the space, everything here would disappear.
The dense, water-like cracks in the void above his head made him panic.
Heaven's Pit was a palm print that was rumored to be Progenitor Chen's. It could be used to pry into Progenitor Chen's secret technique, but to this day, there was no clear evidence that anyone had succeeded.
Lu Yin walked to the side of Heaven's Pit. In front of him, five stone pillars soared into the sky and pressed down on the palm print's fingertips. Only by standing on the pillars could one see the palm print clearly.
At this moment, there were people on the stone pillars. Aside from the time when the Sixth Mainland had invaded the Fifth Mainland, the stone pillars had always been occupied.
There was also a familiar face among them: Di Luo, who had replaced Di Fa as a Realmling.
The Sixth Mainland's talent had also withered. Even Progenitor Di had died, but Di Luo had still been able to become a Realmling. He had truly suppressed the younger generation of the Bloodburn Realm.
Lu Yin quietly snatched a stone pillar and studied the palm print.
He leisurely studied Progenitor Chen's palm print in Heaven's Pit, and the Nine Cauldrons' space grew more and more lively. Powerhouses arrived one after another, and even the old woman and Senior Chao had to bow. More than ten days later, a ninth stage blacksmith from the forging family arrived. He was a World Imprinter, and everyone bowed to him.
"Lu Yin?
That kid actually returned. He's been missing for two years, and the first cauldron shattered before he went missing. That means that he obtained the opportunity to learn the Nine Cauldrons' battle techniques when the first cauldron shattered, "the ninth stage blacksmith said in a low voice.
Someone else chimed in, "That's right. This kid's opportunities are truly heaven-defying. During the final battle of the Sovereign Tournament, the ancestor guessed that he might have obtained the legendary Death God's inheritance and become invincible among his peers."
Everyone fell silent. Lu Yin was like a mountain that not only weighed down on his peers, but even they felt pressured.
In particular, the image of the Death God during the final battle of the Sovereign Tournament represented invincibility. This kid would be invincible no matter what realm he reached.
"There's no need to think too much about it. Seniors, breaking through to become an Imprinter is fair. The stronger Lu Yin is, the stronger his Origin Tribulation will be. He might not even be able to survive his tribulation," Xiaoqing said in a crisp voice.
The Junior Arrow Saint gloomily said, "If he can survive his Origin Tribulation, then he'll become the strongest Imprinter in history."
Xiaoqing rolled her eyes. "That's so exaggerated. Are you scared?"
The Junior Arrow Saint gritted his teeth, but he did not retort.
The ninth stage blacksmith's eyes flashed with a gloomy light, and he exchanged glances with the other Imprinters. He then waved his hand. "Disperse. From now on, this place is sealed, and we will take turns guarding it. The space within the Nine Cauldrons is now sealed."
When they heard this, the youths were unwilling to give up. If Lu Yin could obtain an opportunity, then they wanted to stay here even more. Who knew, they might be able to comprehend something as well?
The ruins of the Daosource Sect had existed for countless years, and even its history had been forgotten. The number of opportunities that could be obtained was extremely small, such as Heaven's Pit, the Scripture Pavilion, and the Primordial Enlightenment Platform. It was rumored that there were great opportunities within those places, but no one had ever obtained them. Now, it was confirmed that an inheritance had appeared within the Nine Cauldrons, so they were naturally unwilling to leave.
