Chapter 557 - Lifting The Dark Bloom Cavern's Interference Field
The Twin Lights Liger King couldn't help but think the worst upon seeing the change.
He didn't know what Lin Wu had just done and wondered if the seal was broken or something. The Twin Lights Liger King thought that he was foolish that he even let Lin Wu try something like this.
Now he could only regret this and hope that things weren't as he had just thought they were.
"Relax, the seal is fine. I can guess what you're thinking." Lin Wu casually said, upon hearing the Twin Lights Liger King.
"Huh?" The Twin Lights Liger King looked at the barriers and saw that they were indeed the same as before.
"Then… what happened?" The Twin Lights Liger King questioned.
"Something good… something helpful…" Lin Wu said as he looked at the woodwind in front of him.
~DING~

Seeing the few notifications in front of him, Lin Wu felt pleased. He knew that there was just a little thing standing in between him and this place and now even that was gone. He was restrained by the interference field and it just took a little touch and work from the system to take care of it.
"Alright, system… time for a total scan of this place." Lin Wu ordered.
~DING~

~SHUA~
In just a minute, the entire view of the Dark Bloom Caverns changed for Lin Wu and he could see everything that was hidden within this place. He could see all the formation links and networks that spread in the caverns.
He could even see the spots where it was damaged and its link with the Taiji Celestial's tomb's formation array was broken.
'That's a lot of damage… doesn't seem like it can be fixed directly or quickly for that matter…' Lin Wu thought to himself.
He then looked at the other places on the map and could see all the routes and caves there were in the Dark Bloom Cavern. He now had the right path that he could follow and leave from the other caves if the need so arose.
"Hmm… I can probably dig a new tunnel that takes me directly to the Taiji celestial's tomb if the need so arises. A straight path will be the fastest one…" Lin Wu muttered to himself.
He checked the map for other markers and discovered that there wasn't really much in the Dark Bloom caverns other than the big seal and a few plants and insects. There were no treasures in here either like the rumors said.
The seal was another thing that was shocking to Lin Wu. Even after the system got access to it completely, the seal still turned up like a blind spot on the map.
"Why's this part still hidden system?" Lin Wu questioned.
~DING~
——
ANSWER: The encryption on the seal is additionally strengthened and the system cannot decrypt it right away.
——
"And what about the power source? Can we use the main power source now?" Lin Wu questioned.
~DING~
——
ANSWER: According to what the system had been able to decrypt till now, the being in the seal is the power source itself. But due to the original link being broken, the sealing formation's security features were activated and it heavily encrypted the access.
Now, if the main power source is to be used, the system will need to fully decrypt it and then make a new access point for the power source.

~Sigh~
Hearing the answer of the system, Lin Wu couldn't help but sigh. In fact, the moment he had seen the being, the pair of black eyes, he knew that he would be running into some sort of a problem.
The being was beyond his understanding and was likely to pose a problem. And after he heard from the Twin Lights Liger King that the Sky Bright Daoist was the one who sealed it, Lin Wu knew that the being was more than something he can handle at his level.
'If it has been able to last this long, it should be very strong. But this was a tomb, wasn't it supposed to be dead all along?' Lin Wu wondered.
~DING~

NOTIFICATION: The system has found some data nodes related to this. Would the host like to view them? Y/N

"Right one time, show me." Lin Wu ordered.
Lin Wu felt a surge of information in his mind and several windows also appeared in front of him.
'If it was directly injected into my mind, that means it was already prepared in that format. Hmm… interesting…' Lin Wu thought and started to go through the information.
In it, he saw how the entire situation with the Dark Bloom Caverns had originally started.
A long time ago the Millennium forest did not exist and this was just barren land. But what did exist here was an ancient tomb that had existed for an unknown amount of time. There was a being buried here that was waiting to be revived.
There was no mention of whether it was a human, a beast, a demon or some other creature. The only thing that was told was that it was a very strong being that could end the world in mere minutes of being given the opportunity to do so.
The tomb was desolate for a long time and the being inside it stayed dead all that time. But after a certain time passed, it was gaining life again and the being inside it was going to be revived.
It was at that time that the Sky Bright Daoist arrived and sealed the entire tomb. Raising the great earth, he fully hid the tomb deep underground. He then put more seals on top of it, before making the Taiji Celestial's tomb on top.
Then, to make the seal stronger and weaken the being inside, the Sky Bright Daoist turned it into a power source and kept on draining its spirit Qi.
