Having thought it over, Jade Slip Xiao Hua left the space, his mind returned to its proper place, and he opened his eyes.
Seeing that the sky was already bright, Xiao Hua's heart stirred. He made a brief calculation on his fingers, shook his head slightly, and stepped out of the wooden hut.
"Ha ha... True Person Xiao, you truly are formidable!" The moment Xiao Hua emerged from the hut, Zhai Xingzi noticed him. He drifted down from the mountaintop and cupped his hands. "It was merely a hundred days of contemplation, yet you have advanced so greatly. Had this old man not seen it with his own eyes, he would never have dared believe it."
"Not at all, not at all!" Xiao Hua replied with a smile. "Even if this Xiao secluded himself for another hundred days, I fear I still could not catch up to Fellow Daoist's late Nascent Soul stage. I must continue striving!"
"Congratulations, True Person!" Gu Suqiudi also flew over from afar, with Fu Zhiwen following behind her. Surprise filled Gu Suqiudi's face as she called out from a great distance.
"Congratulations on leaving seclusion, Master!" Fu Zhiwen was overjoyed. He landed and bowed deeply.
"Congratulations to us all!" Xiao Hua returned Gu Suqiudi's salute, then looked at Fu Zhiwen with a smile. "Your master accidentally entered seclusion and missed your great occasion! I truly feel ashamed. Come, take out your Heavenly Punishment Prisoner Crystal!"
"Yes, Master!" Though Fu Zhiwen did not understand, he respectfully took out the wooden box. Xiao Hua raised his hand, and the Heavenly Punishment Prisoner Crystal flew from it. Narrowing his eyes, Xiao Hua briefly examined the somewhat familiar Law-Binding Chains. He opened his mouth, and three streams of azure light that looked alike yet were fundamentally different flew out.
