Two updates tonight.
The King Divine General flickered back to his original position and stood motionless once more.
Tang Changsheng kept his eyes fixed on the Bright Pearl. It had grown brighter still.
"So that's it, so that's it. Master once said, 'When the Bright Pearl goes dark, our sect will perish.' I was wondering why it kept growing brighter for no reason. I never imagined the Protector King Divine General had already awakened. This pearl..."
No wonder the Bright Pearl had shone upon the Bagua Mirror when Tang Changsheng first crossed over.
His Master's Sect must have arranged all this long ago!
Delighted, Tang Changsheng put away the Three Realms Mirror. If our Guardian Divine General has awakened, what do I have left to fear?
He was a genuine Divine General of the Heavenly Court, one who had received an Imperial Investiture centuries ago!
Even if he could no longer wield the power he had at his peak, a tenth of it would be enough to keep the General's Temple safe in this Age of Declining Dharma!
With that thought, Tang Changsheng strode out of the Quiet Room and headed straight for the hall where the Divine General was worshipped. Da Xiang and his wife had also been alerted and entered through another doorway.
Light filled the room. The deity statue of the Protector King Divine General upon the altar gave off flecks of white light.
At that moment, both Tang Changsheng and Da Xiang knew what it meant. They exchanged a glance, their eyes brimming with joy!
The Protector King Divine General worshipped at the General's Temple had awakened. Neither dared delay; they went forward to offer incense.
Once the Protector King Divine General regained his strength, the General's Temple would have recovered a third of its power
