Cang Lou said with a smile:
"Although Cang Feng was struck by Heaven's Punishment Lightning, he gained some insight from it. After stabilizing his early Mahayana-stage cultivation, he continued his secluded cultivation and has yet to emerge."
"It is a good thing that Cang Feng gained insight. Once one reaches the Mahayana stage, further breakthroughs depend on one's comprehension and use of laws. It will be enough if he can break through to the late Mahayana stage before the regions missing from the Buddha Domain return."
Cang Lou understood the meaning behind Yunxi's words and nodded solemnly.

Only then did she take out the half piece of soul crystal she had sealed.
Cang Lou remained fairly composed. Only after hearing Yunxi's account and watching the Imprint Jade did he speak:
