[The previous chapter was revised at the end, changing the original buff-enhancing [ Fallen Toad Light ] into a pure killing Divine Ability.]
Two Divine Ability brought about by the extraordinary phenomenon of Foundation Establishment.
[ Dew-Drinking Radiance ] and [ Fallen Toad Light ]
One is primarily for healing and recovery, while the other is purely for killing.
The former is a Law Technique that slightly replaces the " Water and Wood Pure Splendor Incantation " that Chen Shuangbai originally practiced, which provides enhancement and empowerment. The appearance of the latter... greatly makes up for Chen Shuangbai's current lack of killing power.
It can be said that [ Fallen Toad Light ] is Chen Shuangbai's trump card.
He carefully contemplated the profound mysteries of the two Divine Ability, and gradually understood how to cultivate Divine Ability.
"[ Dew-Drinking Radiance ] requires frequent contact with mystical herbs and spiritual flowers. The higher the grade of the Spirit Plant, the more it is favored by this Divine Ability, thus allowing for daily, ever-increasing mysteries."
"As for [ Fallen Toad Light ]... it's even easier to understand. To improve this Divine Ability, one needs to nourish it with Toad Jade."
So-called Toad Jade is a special piece of jade formed by a different species of toad absorbing the essence of the moon and cultivating it within its body over a long period of time. It is formed by the combination of the essence of the Grand Yin and the toad's own yin and malice, making it extremely harmful.
The former is easy to say; there are many spiritual flowers and herbs in the mountains, and some of them seem to be of high quality.
But what happens next is hard to say.
Toads are already scarce, and the variant species are even rarer, so Chen Shuangbai had a bit of a headache.
"Well, let's take it one step at a time. When my cultivation is more advanced in the future, I might be able to travel to the twelve kingdoms. At that time, when I seek immortals and visit the Dao, I might even find one or two exotic toads."
Chen Shuangbai dispelled his worries and then released his personal Law Artifact Spirit Artifact.
Perhaps nurtured by the extraordinary phenomena that occurred when he Foundation Establishment, the surfaces of several Law Artifact now glow with a shimmering, mysterious light, as if they had received a great benefit.
The two Law Sword, in particular, emanated a faint magical light, as if they possessed a greater degree of spirituality.
However, Chen Shuangbai still shook his head slightly and said, "It's alright when Qi Refining, especially since the Cold Spring Sword once housed the remnant soul of someone at least Golden Core True Person cultivator. Its inner nature far surpasses that of ordinary magic Law Artifact, making it comparable to a top-grade one."
" The Green Parasol is slightly lacking, and it hasn't been nurtured enough, but this..."
What Chen Shuangbai was most concerned about was the only Spirit Artifact he possessed, the [ Clear Waves Reflecting the Moon Banner ].
This banner is Low-Grade Spirit Artifact, so it is difficult for Chen Shuangbai is in the Qi Refining Stage, to use it. At best, it will consume most of his Law Power; at worst, he may lose control and cause it to backfire on him.
Now that he has Foundation Establishment, the moment he got his hands on this item, he no longer felt any obstruction. It was as easy to use as a finger or an arm. The entire surface of the Spirit Artifact was covered with layers of faint watery light, with a point of moon white in the middle, like the moon in the water, emitting a hazy, clear glow.
"Unexpectedly, nourished by my Foundation Establishment phenomenon, this object's spirituality spontaneously increased by more than half, leaping from Low-Grade Spirit Artifact to Mid-Grade Spirit Artifact?"
Chen Shuangbai's eyes shone with an unusual light, clearly showing that she was overjoyed.
Speaking of that Foundation Establishment phenomenon...
With a thought, two distinct beams of light leaped from his body.
One was a dragon-headed human, holding a green jade tablet; the other had red hair that billowed in the wind, riding a crimson leopard.
It was Lord of the First Month and Lord of the Sixth Month.
First Month is the first month of the lunar calendar, which governs spring and symbolizes growth and development.
Fifth Month is the sixth month, which governs the growth of summer and is characterized by the rising heat.
"Spring and summer..."
Chen Shuangbai muttered something under his breath, looking at the two Moon Lord Divine Manifestation appearing within the cave abode, and couldn't help but sigh softly, saying, "I had no intention of doing this, but it was fate."
With the formation of the two Moon Lord Divine Manifestation, Chen Shuangbai's cultivation will become increasingly effective in the future.
He said no more, and sat down cross-legged on the spot. The two Moon Lord Divine Manifestation returned to the ladder, sank into their Dantian, and landed on the great lake formed by Law Power, one in the east and one in the south, as if guarding it, their bodies glowing faintly with the ripples of the Law Power lake.
Once the Foundation Establishment, one is listed as a direct descendant.
People from the Registration Hall came to the door and personally registered Chen Shuangbai's name, then enshrined her in the True Disciple Hall.
This day.
Beyond the Verdant Hills Stream, the clear cries of crimson cranes and the Cloud Horse accompanied a magnificent palanquin, flanked by Daoist boys carrying various ritual implements and playing celestial music.
The leader was a Daoist priest in a tall hat and wide belt, who looked quite old, with white hair and beard. He dared not approach the Verdant Hills Stream too closely, but instead bowed respectfully in this direction, proclaiming in a loud voice:
"Congratulations to True Disciple Chen achieving Foundation Establishment, your Dao foundation is now complete!"
"I am Qi Xuan, a steward of the Registration Hall. By order of the Sect Leader and the other True Person Immortals, I have registered Elder Chen's name as True Disciple of Jade Spring and presented the sect's congratulatory gifts. I humbly request that True Disciple Chen come to meet me!"
The voice was clear and respectful, carrying far into the Verdant Hills Stream.
Chen Shuangbai had already sensed something, and her heart stirred slightly upon hearing this.
He cast a Clothes-Cleansing Technique, then slowly and steadily rode the blue-white escape light to the outside of the cave abode.
"But I wonder, which senior brother from the Registration Hall has come here?"
Upon seeing Chen Shuangbai appear and speak, the old man immediately stepped forward, bowed again, and smiled broadly.
"I am unworthy to be called a senior brother who True Disciple. I, Qi Xuan, am merely a humble steward within the hall."
Chen Shuangbai looked back and saw the crane stretching its neck and calling out, its posture elegant. The chariot Cloud Horse was quite luxurious, painted with cloud and water patterns, its spiritual light restrained.
The twelve young Daoist disciples attending him were also Lingxiu, holding ritual objects such as jade ruyi, golden whisks, treasure vases, and prayer flags, while the music played by string and wind instruments was clear, melodious, and peaceful.
This perfectly embodies the magnificence of the Immortal Dao rituals.
"Thank you for your hard work, everyone."
Chen Shuangbai was easygoing and would not make things difficult for his fellow disciples. All the cultivators were grateful for his kindness and dared not be presumptuous.
The old Daoist priest became even more respectful.
As a steward of the Registration Hall, he had handled countless disciples' Foundation Establishment and Records Enrollment, but none like Chen Shuangbai, who received such a grand ceremony upon achieving Foundation Establishment, especially one appointed by the sect itself... This shows how highly the higher-ups valued him.
In fact... this person who recently achieved Foundation Establishment was accompanied by extraordinary phenomena, which spread throughout the entire sect.
Now, I wonder how many fellow disciples would like to visit, but due to the sect's rules and regulations, and the fact that Chen Shuangbai has never traveled outside, he has no way to do so.
Those who Foundation Establishment phenomena have a bright future; they are guaranteed to become Golden Core True Person in the future!
Who can ignore this?
The old Daoist bowed again, yielding the precious carriage behind him, and said loudly:
"Please, Elder Chen, ascend the palanquin and proceed to Jade Spring Peak to perform the ceremonies of registering, bestowing ordination, and bestowing gifts."
Chen Shuangbai did not refuse, nodded slightly, and with a sway of her body, she landed safely inside the precious carriage.
The interior space is quite spacious, covered with soft spirit beast fur, and furnished with jade tables and incense burners, making it comfortable and elegant.
Seeing Chen Shuangbai seated, Qi Xuan waved his sleeve and said loudly, "Let's go!"
The sounds of string and wind instruments rose again, the clear cries of cranes cleared the way, cloud Cloud Horse rode on clouds, and the precious carriage rose steadily, slowly flying towards the core of the gate, surrounded by a group of Daoist boys.
Along the way, disciples and stewards from all the inner sect peaks looked up at them, pointing and whispering, their gazes filled with curiosity, amazement, and longing.
