Felynn coldly said, “Allow Yi Feng to return to the Outerverse Lockbreaker Society, and the matters between us can be considered settled then. As for those treasures, what you obtained will be considered yours. How about that?”

“Who gave Executive Felynn the confidence to talk to me like that?” Wei Rong teased.

Felynn’s gaze froze. “The foundation that the Lockbreaker Society accumulated over so many years is still present. Do you truly wish to become the entire Lockbreaker Society’s enemy? The Innerverse and Outerverse will reconnect sooner or later, and when we regain the Innerverse Lockbreaker Society’s support, we will crush you like an ant.”

“Perhaps, but that’s only after the Innerverse and Outerverse are reconnected. Now, Executive Felynn, if there’s nothing else, let’s not contact each other again.” Wei Rong then immediately disconnected from the call. He needed the Lockbreakers, but he did not want someone like Felynn. This woman’s ambition was overly large, but she was stupid and easily duped by others. This sort of person was worthless in his eyes, and she could not even compare to the worth of a one star Perceptive Intermediate Lockbreaker.

Yi Feng could draw a large number of Lockbreakers to Armament Weave, and the remaining Lockbreakers could be slowly lured over afterwards. There was no rush, as Wei Rong did not need to achieve instant success.

These Lockbreakers were rather difficult to deal with, so he would just take his time.

Felynn’s face was gloomy as she placed down her gadget, still hovering in the sky above Sourcepeak Planet. Wei Rong’s attitude clearly showed that he wanted to sever all ties with her, and he had no intention of making any compromises. She had not even stated her conditions before he disconnected, and if that was the case, then her only option was to go with Lu Yin’s plan. Even if Wei Rong publicly released the secret that she had cooperated with him, she could use Lu Yin’s influence to refute that claim.

As she thought about it more, Felynn smiled bitterly. When had Lockbreakers turn into others’ tools and become vassals that were subservient to cultivators?

Not long after Felynn’s call with Wei Rong, Xi Qi was busy looking for Lu Yin when she checked her gadget and cried out in surprise. Felynn had released a notification, and with her status as interim president, she was relocating the Outerverse Lockbreaker Society to Frostwave Weave, and just like Yi Feng, Felynn was also offering tempting conditions to all Lockbreakers that followed her.

Quite a few Lockbreakers who had been intending to head to Armament Weave suddenly hesitated.

“Go to Frostwave Weave? I seem to remember that there’s nothing in that weave. There aren’t any sourceboxes, and it’s really out of the way. Why would we relocate there?”

“Executive Felynn’s given reason is that the Outerverse Lockbreaker Society needs the Great Eastern Alliance’s protection. The Great Eastern Alliance is made up of eight large eastern weaves, and it’s rather powerful. Also, its integration of resources is pretty convenient, and with Lu Yin as the Great Yu Empire’s Royal Regent, even Enlighters don’t dare to provoke it.”

“That’s right, our Outerverse Lockbreaker Society no longer has anybody that can deal with Enlighters. It’s better to have someone protecting us.”

“Hmph, since when did we Lockbreakers require someone to protect us? How humiliating.”

…

Discussions broke out everywhere, and some agreed with the relocation while others rejected it. But regardless of their stance, they could not stay on Sourcepeak Planet any longer. With Felynn’s position as the interim president, she shifted the Outerverse Lockbreaker Society’s headquarters to Frostwave Weave, and nobody in the Society had the seniority to reject her.

Many Lockbreakers were rather independent, and they did not typically remain at the Society’s headquarters. Thus, this transfer didn’t really affect them. However, there were also quite a few Lockbreakers who remained at the headquarters all year round, and these people needed Felynn to placate them.

The good thing was that, while Yi Feng had offered appealing conditions that moved many Lockbreakers, Felynn’s offer was even better. With the offers clearly stated, many Lockbreakers started to make their future plans.

They had no choice, either, as they had to either follow Yi Feng or Felynn. In comparison, although Yi Feng’s strength was greater, Felynn’s title of interim president was perfectly justified. On top of that, she also had the society’s protected information, which was much better than what Yi Feng could offer.

As for Armament Weave and the Great Eastern Alliance, the comparison between the two was even more drastic considering the value that they offered.

Many Lockbreakers who had been planning to move to Armament Weave quickly turned around and decided to follow Felynn to Frostwave Weave once the news broke.

“Wei Rong’s gravest mistake was not having Yi Feng stay behind to fight for the seat of president. Otherwise, he could have taken all of these Lockbreakers to Armament Weave with him,” the Ghost Monkey sighed.

Lu Yin commented, “It’s not that he didn’t want to, but rather that he couldn’t. Yi Feng’s roots within the Society are not as deep as Felynn’s. Even if he had stayed behind, there was no possible way for him to win against Felynn. Besides, Armament Weave can’t handle that many Lockbreakers. If not for the Great Eastern Alliance, Frostwave Weave would face the same problem.”

“Then how did the Sourcepeak Weave do it?” the monkey retorted.

Lu Yin replied, “When the society’s headquarters was first established in the Sourcepeak Weave, there definitely weren't so many Lockbreakers in the Outerverse. Things had to develop step by step—where else do you think the Hall of Insight gathered all of its treasures from?”

Lu Yin’s heart was moved when he mentioned the society’s treasures, as he still needed to check and see just exactly what he had obtained. He was especially looking forward to finding out what was inside the box that had been stored inside Geoffrey’s secret room. That Corpse King had been desperate to acquire those two boxes, so there was definitely something extremely valuable inside.

“Brother Lu, are we really heading over to Frostwave Weave?” Xi Qi asked as she walked over to Lu Yin.

Lu Yin nodded. “The society will be coveted by greedy people, and the things that occurred today will definitely happen again. After all, the treasures and knowledge that the society accumulated over countless years are more than enough to make others jealous. When we go to Frostwave Weave, I can have the entire Great Eastern Alliance protect the society as well as support it with the alliance’s integrated resources. These Lockbreakers won’t need to delay their cultivation.”

Xi Qi acknowledged him with a grunt.

“Familiar two-legged beast, Lord Fish sees that you have an amazing skeleton and that you are rather prone to seizing opportunities. Follow Lord Fish! Lord Fish will teach you True Insight,” the fish atop Xi Qi’s head bragged as it swung its tail about.

Lu Yin did not even bother to acknowledge it.

“It’s a pity about those sourceboxes. Those few two-legged beasts have already left, and now, nobody can take them away,” the fish said.

Lu Yin followed the fish’s gaze and looked over at the four large trees. The four sourceboxes had turned back into towering structures, and faint imprints of trees could already be seen on their surfaces. It was all very mysterious.

These four sourceboxes truly made Lu Yin feel rather emotional. He wished that there was a way to take them away, but unfortunately, the fish was right. There was no one who could take these sourceboxes away.

Seeing a sourcebox was like being able to see a hidden treasure but being unable to touch it. There were such sourceboxes present on Shenwu Continent, at every stronghold in Ironblood Weave, and even more on Sourcepeak Planet.

Lu Yin coveted them all. If he had the ability to unlock them, then he might be able to obtain something truly extraordinary.

At that moment, Ku Wei showed up in a rather sorry condition, and he started indignantly blaming Lu Yin for treating him as a scapegoat.

Lu Yin sized him up and down with a strange look. “Your surname makes it easy for me to do so.”

Ku Wei was stumped, and then he laughed loudly. “Surname? What surname? I’m Brother Wei, and my full name is hardly ever seen, hahaha!”

After that, he fled.

Lu Yin’s eyes narrowed. This person was definitely someone from the Seven Courts’ Ku Family.

Every single one of the Three Dark Hands had an unpredictable strength. Even the various great powers of the Innerverse would not consider provoking them, and Lu Yin did not want to confront such a terrifying power either. To date, the Neohuman Alliance had not directly acted against him, and all of his conflicts had actually been a series of chance encounters. If the Neohuman Alliance truly wanted to do something to Lu Yin, he had no confidence of being able to withstand them unless he requested help from Mister Mu.

Lu Yin still remembered what had happened to the members of the Yushan bloodline. The Seven Courts and the Neohuman Alliance were both equally famous, and neither one was known for their kindness.

Lu Yin looked for an empty area where he could peacefully check his harvest.

First, he decided to look through the cosmic rings that he had seized from the fallen cultivators. While grabbing the rings, he had also collected a bit of blood from each person, and he used that bit of blood right now to open the rings one by one.

He had grabbed dozens of cosmic rings, though he found nothing special even after going through several of them. There were even a few that were completely empty. Finally, something good appeared in one ring: a crystal bottle. It was filled with a liquid, and there was an introduction to the liquid written on the bottle.

Gemspring water: a liquid that could help one during a lockbreaking session that was used by dripping it into one’s eyes. Lu Yin was delighted, as this was a lockbreaking tool, which was definitely a good thing. Every lockbreaking tool was valuable.

He checked the amount of gemspring water in the bottle and estimated that there should be around twenty-odd drops, which was pretty decent.

He continued to open cosmic rings and glance through them. Soon enough, he found something else that was decent. This time, it was dozens of memory chips, and when Lu Yin inserted one of them into his gadget, he found that it was a Perceptive Intermediate Lockbreaker’s entire lockbreaking channel that included an introduction of that Lockbreaker’s experience. Lu Yin was delighted, as this was a Lockbreaker’s greatest treasure. Every single one of these chips contained a Lockbreaker’s entire lifetime of lockbreaking experience.

He almost could not suppress his laughter, as this one cosmic ring contained more than thirty chips, which was equivalent to over thirty people’s lifetime lockbreaking experience. This amount of valuable information even made him feel slightly flustered. If this information was exposed, then all those other Lockbreakers would probably want to devour him alive.

These were the most valuable treasures that had been in the Hall of Insight.

Lu Yin looked through the chips one by one and found that they all contained Lockbreaker experiences. He had no time to study these chips right now, so he stored them away before continuing to look through the other cosmic rings.

In the end, the various cosmic rings provided him with two lockbreaking tools, a hundred chips that recorded various Lockbreakers’ experience, more than 100,000 star essence, and also a strange technique.

The two lockbreaking tools were the gemspring water and a piece of pink cloth, obviously meant to be worn by a lady. As for the technique, it was called “Great Sacrifice.” According to its description, it was a technique that allowed one to overdraw their vitality in order to display increased power. Once it was used, the person’s life would be consumed.

Lu Yin recalled how Fiend Li’s rune lines had rapidly spiked right before his death and how the old man had been able to activate the four tree sourceboxes. He had most likely used this Great Sacrifice technique at that time.

The extra harvest was the more than 100,000 star essence, which was a rather considerable sum. Lu Yin’s harvest on this trip to Sourcepeak Planet was almost too much.

There was one final thing, which was the box that had been stored in Geoffrey’s secret room.

He carefully pulled it out and slowly opened it, only to see a strand of golden radiance peek out from the box.

As he looked at it, Lu Yin’s breath turned ragged, and his eyes went wide. Could it really be…? Could it really be that? His luck was just too good!

As he opened the box, what appeared before Lu Yin was five golden pages, all of which looked very familiar. He had seen this same sight not too long ago, as they had appeared when Saul had opened the box containing the prize for the Lockbreakers Competition: True Insight.

Each season’s Lockbreaker Competition’s champion would be rewarded with three pages of True Insight. When the chaotic fighting had first broken out, Deng Pu had taken the three pages that he had won and vanished. Later, Saul had been chased out of the Lockbreaker Society because of his various schemes to obtain those three pages, but now, Lu Yin had just gotten a hold of five pages.

He had never thought that his luck would be good enough to actually obtain five pages of True Insight. This must be what the Corpse King had wanted to steal, and it was no wonder why the Corpse King had risked its life to take the box. Five pages of True Insight was truly invaluable.

He hurriedly closed the box lid and appeared incomparably excited. Then, he laughed uncontrollably.

“Seventh Bro, that’s really True Insight! You’ve really struck it rich!” The Ghost Monkey laughed as well.

Lu Yin was pleased, as his harvest this time had turned out to be much better than Wei Rong’s. Wei Rong had set up all sorts of schemes, but he had ended up paving the way for Lu Yin. If that fellow learned of Lu Yin’s harvests, he would definitely go crazy in anger.

“Geoffrey lives up to his status as the Outerverse Lockbreaker Society President, as he actually had five pages of True Insight. Truly formidable,” the monkey exclaimed.
