As he touched the bark, Lu Yin suddenly felt that its texture was similar to that of the Splitting Heaven Array. He took out the Splitting Heaven Array and touched it. He was surprised to find that the texture was the same.
Could it be that the Splitting Heaven Array was made from this bark?
The Splitting Heaven Array could contain the Splitting Heaven battle technique and release it perfectly. It also complemented the sourcebox array.
The sourcebox array was important, but it might not be the most important. It also needed materials that could withstand the Splitting Heaven Array.
Lu Yin suddenly realized that this bark couldn't be the bark of the mother tree, could it?
The mother tree could store astral fluid, so it could naturally store the power of Splitting Heaven Array. Right, why hadn't he thought of this earlier? Although it might not be correct, it was still a possibility.
"Alliance Master Lu, there's nothing left here. Let's go out," Bai Shui reminded him.
Lu Yin put away the Splitting Heaven Array and the mother tree bark and then looked at Bai Shui. "Let me ask you something."
Bai Shui was at a loss.
Lu Yin asked, "If you're the only one here and the Second Nightking returns, what will you do?"
Bai Shui's expression changed, and she lowered her head. "What about the things here?" "Don't tell me that the things here can protect you. I know how powerful they are, and you should be able to guess how strong the Second Nightking is. The things here won't be able to save you."
Bai Shui's eyes flickered. "There's another exit here."
"Where?" Lu Yin asked.
Bai Shui clenched her fists and looked around.
Lu Yin just looked at her.
Beads of sweat dripped from Bai Shui's forehead, and her mind raced as she pondered over something.
Lu Yin was in no hurry.
After a while, Bai Shui sighed. "Alliance Master Lu, what are you trying to say?"
"I've already said what I wanted to say. Don't tell me that you're willing to die to obtain the ancestor's inheritance. If the Second Nightking is outside, then everything here will belong to him. What makes you think that you can take these things out?"
Bai Shui pursed her lips and looked up at Lu Yin with pleading eyes. "Alliance Master Lu, this is a secret between the Bai family and the Daynight clan. Can you let me keep this secret?"
Lu Yin's eyes narrowed. "The Daynight clan no longer exists. The Great Eastern Alliance has suppressed the Daynight clan. From now on, this secret belongs to the Bai family and the Great Eastern Alliance."
Bai Shui's fingers trembled as she struggled and struggled.
The more she acted this way, the more he wanted to get his hands on the secret. There was nothing else here, which meant that the woman had taken away the most valuable thing in the entire vault.
Fortunately, he was not stupid. Otherwise, he would have really entered a treasure mountain and returned empty-handed.
"Alliance Master Lu, have you heard of the Caged Technique?" Bai Shui asked in a low voice.
Lu Yin's eyes went wide, "The Nightking bloodline's ability to control the Dayking bloodline?"
Bai Shui sneered. "More accurately, it's the Bai family's Cage Technique that controls the Daynight clan. The Daynight clan used to be the Bai family's slaves."
Lu Yin was shocked. "The Daynight clan is the Bai family's slave?"
Bai Shui nodded. "During ancient times, the Daosource Sect still existed, and the Frigid Immortal Sect stood tall in the Innerverse. The Bai family controlled the Frigid Immortal Sect, and the Daynight clan was nothing more than the Bai family's watchdogs and slaves. In order to better tame the Daynight clan, the Bai family's Half-Ancestor elder created the Caged Cage Technique in order to suppress the Daynight clan."
"However, after the Frigid Immortal Sect left, the Daynight clan began to rebel, especially after the birth of the First Nightking and the Dayking. They slaughtered all of the elders left behind by the Bai family on the Fifth Mainland, and only a few managed to escape.
The Caged Technique was lost after that. The First Nightking's innate talent was extraordinary, and he modified the foundation of the Bai family's Caged Technique to become the Nightking bloodline's Caged Technique that controls the Dayking bloodline. "
"This is the Caged Technique." She then took out a jade stone.
Lu Yin had never thought that there would be such a secret. The Caged Technique had been created by a Half-Ancestor specifically to enslave the Daynight clan, but it had been used by the Nightking bloodline to enslave the Dayking bloodline.
He took the jade stone and asked, "Is this what you took when you came in?"
Bai Shui nodded. "The Daynight clan killed my ancestors, so I want to learn the Caged Technique to take revenge."
Lu Yin looked at her. "If you learn the Caged Technique, you'll be able to control the Second Nightking?"
Bai Shui answered, "The Caged Technique originates from the bloodline, and it cannot be defied. The First Nightking modified the Caged Technique to make it easier for them to control the Dayking bloodline, but in reality, the Caged Technique still exists in their bodies. According to the records of our ancestors, when the Daynight clan was enslaved, even a child from the Bai family could control the life and death of an Enlighter. I'm confident that I can control the Second Nightking."
Lu Yin sucked in a breath of cold air. This was too domineering! Even a child could control the life and death of an Enlighter. It was no wonder why the Daynight clan had resisted; anyone would have done the same.
No one wanted to be enslaved, and they could only blame the Bai family's remaining members for being too useless. They had all been killed by the First Nightking. Otherwise, the Daynight Flowzone would still be called the Frigid Immortal Flowzone, and the Daynight clan would never have been able to rise to prominence.
Lu Yin looked at the jade stone in his hand with a burning gaze. "If I learn the Caged Technique, does that mean that I can control the Daynight clan?"
Bai Shui hesitated for a moment, but then she nodded. "That's right. Anyone who learns the Caged Technique can control the Daynight clan. Furthermore, the Caged Technique isn't difficult to learn, and even those who are innately gifted can learn it, even if they've just started cultivating."
This was the reason why she had mentioned that even a child could control the life and death of an Enlighter from the Daynight clan. If even a child could learn it, then Lu Yin would naturally be able to do so as well.
At this moment, Lu Yin's heart ached. If he had known about this earlier, then he would never have allowed Nightking Di Jiang to die, nor would he have allowed the Second Nightking to be thrown into Earth's Swamp. These were all powerful bodyguards.
What a pity, what a pity. If he had known that he would be able to obtain this, then all of the Daynight clan's experts would have been his. The Great Eastern Alliance's strength would have soared, and it would have been able to quickly dominate the Innerverse.
Lu Yin's expression turned ugly. How could he not have known about this earlier?
Bai Shui was apprehensive, as she did not know what Lu Yin was thinking. She felt even more pity for the Caged Technique, as she had wanted to learn it and use it to control the Daynight clan. However, just as Lu Yin had said, the Daynight clan had already been suppressed by the Great Eastern Alliance, so it would be useless for her to control them.
That would be equivalent to making an enemy out of the Great Eastern Alliance, and it would be tantamount to courting death.
Lu Yin sighed and put the jade stone away. There was nothing he could do about it, as this was the truth, and he could not change it.
"Let's go out," Lu Yin said.
Bai Shui nodded.
One needed to be a direct descendant of the Bai family to enter the secret vault, but leaving was very simple. They just had to go straight to the bronze door and pass through it.
Lu Yin stepped out of the secret vault and was met with the head referee's shadow. He almost collided with him.
Bai Shui walked out from the side and bowed deeply when she saw the head referee.
The head referee did not ask what Lu Yin had obtained from the vault. Instead, he asked, "Descendant of the Bai family, what's sealed underground?"
Lu Yin looked at Bai Shui curiously. There's a seal underground?
Bai Shui was confused. "Seal?
What seal? "
The head referee's voice was cold. "You don't know?"
Bai Shui shook her head and bowed again. "I ask for the head referee's judgment. This little girl does not know what seal it is."
The head referee headed in another direction.
Lu Yin and Whitewater looked at each other and then followed closely behind.
Not long after, the two of them clearly felt an oppressive aura, but they did not know where it was coming from.
Lu Yin also tried to search for rune lines, but he could not find anything.
The head referee suddenly stopped, and Lu Yin and Bai Shui stepped forward to look into the distance.
Dust drifted across the ground, and then the ground split apart to reveal a symbol: a tree root.
Lu Yin's eyes narrowed, and he blurted out, "The symbol of Progenitor Hui?"
"That's right. It's Progenitor Hui's symbol."
Bai Shui's jaw dropped. Progenitor Hui was a legend to her. Legend had it that there had been invincible existences like Progenitor Chen, Progenitor Hui, and Progenitor Chen in the universe. However, those had only been recorded in history, and no one had ever seen them. Even as a descendant of the Bai family, her knowledge was similar to that of the cultivators in this universe. Progenitor was a distant word that she had never even imagined.
However, at this moment, she had actually seen the symbol of Progenitor Hui.
Lu Yin stared at the symbol with a solemn expression. "Head Referee, you're saying that there's a seal underground? Did Progenitor Hui seal it?"
"If Progenitor Hui was the one who placed the symbol, then he must have sealed it."
Lu Yin thought of the Royal Frost Continent. The entire continent was a giant seal, and no one knew what was sealed there. The one who had sealed it was also Progenitor Hui.
It seemed that Progenitor Hui had sealed more than one or two things, and he had even left behind a seal in the Frigid Immortal Sect. What exactly had he sealed?
If the Frigid Immortal Sect had an ancestor, why would they allow Progenitor Hui to place a seal here?
Had the Frigid Immortal Sect set this seal when it was still in the Fifth Mainland? Or had it been set after the Frigid Immortal Sect left?
"Head Referee, do you know what's sealed here?" Lu Yin asked.
The Head Referee did not answer.
Lu Yin recalled that he had asked Bai Shui about the seal, and it seemed that she did not know anything about it either.
No matter how strong the Head Referee was, Lu Yin did not believe that he would be able to see through Progenitor Hui's seal.
Even if the Sixth Mainland's Three Progenitors were here, Lu Yin did not believe that they would be able to see through Progenitor Hui's seal.
Progenitor Hui was a terrifying figure who had plotted against the Sixth Mainland and the Eternals. Even though no one knew how strong he was, just the fact that he had schemed against the Sixth Mainland and the Everlasting Race was enough to make anyone wary.
Martial power and wisdom. If Ancestor Chen represented martial power, then Ancestor Hui represented wisdom.
"You really don't know about the seal here?" Lu Yin asked Bai Shui.
Bai Shui solemnly replied, "I swear that I definitely don't know."
Lu Yin looked away, as he trusted Bai Shui. How could she possibly know about Progenitor Hui's seal? Even the Progenitor who had left her those external items might not have known about it. The Frigid Immortal Sect only had one Progenitor, and only that Progenitor had the qualifications to know about it. How could a Progenitor leave such things behind for Bai Shui and the others?
"Let's go. This place can't be exposed," the Head Referee said coldly.
Lu Yin agreed. If Progenitor Hui had sealed this place, then it was necessary to seal it. This place could not be exposed, and the Everlasting Race could not discover it.
It didn't take long for the three of them to reach the bottom of the Frigid Immortal Pond. Lu Yin tossed the water over and smiled at the head judge. "Senior Brother, I brought you something good from the hidden trove." He then took out a bottle of starsource elixir.
