Jiangbei, inside a secret chamber deep within a remote mountain forest.
As Lu Yang's summons arrived, Patriarch Tingyou, who had been in seclusion, was instantly roused. His figure drifted over mountains and rivers, crossing a vast distance in an instant.
Though he had awakened, he was still a Banner Spirit.
