On the Ice Snow Plateau, Stone Ghost revealed the array to Elder Baoyuan of the Myriad Treasures Pavilion.

Yun Daoyi discovered that the Spirit Rhinoceros Mirror could access the Yun Clan’s inheritance and provide powerful deductions, with ancestors in the Incense God Domain acting as helpers through it.
