In the Cavern Abyss Heaven, there is no distinction between day and night.
Chen Shuangbai landed in a relatively intact palace, used her Law Power to clear a clean area, and then pointed her finger, causing a beam of pure white spiritual light to fall, which unfurled in the wind and transformed into a pure blue spiritual banner.
The [ Clear Waves Reflecting the Moon Banner ] immediately moved without wind upon landing, emitting a faint blue light and a clear, shimmering glow that enveloped the entire palace.
Those two kinds of radiance, though seemingly faint, contained a peaceful and serene aura, isolating all the noise and chaos of the outside world. At the same time, they drew in spiritual energy, stirred up moisture, nourished the physical body, and transformed this place into a simple Daoist temple, bestowing blessings upon Chen Shuangbai.
But that's not enough.
Chen Shuangbai took out the small golden stove that he hadn't used for a long time, put a fragrant pill into it, and with a flick of his Law Power, a wisp of watery fragrance permeated it, filling the air inside and out in the blink of an eye.
The fragrance wasn't particularly rich; instead, it had a refreshing and vibrant quality, like the delicate scent of lotus blossoms carried by a summer evening breeze, seeping into Chen Shuangbai's body through his mouth and nose, further aiding in his recovery.
With the help of many, Chen Shuangbai finally calmed down and focused all her efforts on restoring her physical body.
Thus, within the palace, the water shimmered and the moonlight floated, creating a serene atmosphere like the moon reflected in water. A faint fragrance drifted in the air, and it seemed as if four moon deities were seated there, drawing more spiritual energy from the outside world to gather there.
He sat there for an unknown amount of time.
Perhaps it was one day, perhaps three days, before Chen Shuangbai finally slowly opened her eyes.
The weariness in his eyes was gone, replaced by a bright and energetic look.
He exhaled a long breath of stale air, which condensed and did not dissipate, carrying a slight grayish-black hue with a hint of red, before slowly dissipating into the abundant moisture.
This was the last remaining effect of the Demon King Junyu's demonic fire.
"It's finally recovered."
Chen Shuangbai stood up, took out another Jade Spring Robe and put it on, then cast a Clothes-Cleansing Technique on herself to restore her cleanliness before looking at the golden incense burner and the [ Clear Waves Reflecting the Moon Banner ] that she had released.
The golden incense burner is one thing...
This item comes from the Ancient Kingdom; it is best to preserve it in its original state.
But [ the Clear Waves Reflecting the Moon Banner ]...
Chen Shuangbai looked at the spirit banner. Although it was blessed by the fortune of his Golden Core attainment and was made into Supreme-Grade Spirit Artifact by mid-grade Spiritual Qi, it was still somewhat insufficient for him, who had already achieved the Golden Core stage.
"I will find an opportunity to upgrade this item to Law Treasure."
Putting everything else aside, Chen Shuangbai has always been very fond of the wondrous power of this spirit banner.
The refined Daoist stretched, a rare occurrence for him. A series of crackling sounds, like popping beans, came from within his body, and a powerful sense of strength surged from his limbs and bones.
The horrific piercing wound in his abdomen has now healed.
The Golden Core True Person has gradually begun to transcend the realm of mortals. Even if only half of his body remains, as long as Chen Shuangbai's soul is still intact and his physical body is not contaminated by anything else, he can grow back perfectly.
It's just a matter of how long it takes.
But it seems to confirm the old saying that there can be no new without destruction. Chen Shuangbai now feels that his physical body is much stronger than before.
"It can be considered a blessing in disguise."
After calming his mind, he did not leave the simple Daoist temple, but instead began to refine another object.
He wasn't in a hurry. Instead, he raised his hand and pointed, and the [ Clear Waves Reflecting the Moon Banner ] burst forth with even stronger clear light, further reinforcing the simple Daoist temple. However, the Daoist still felt uneasy. With a flick of his left hand, golden and jade-like light bloomed and landed on the banner. Amidst the scattered clear light, dragons formed from golden and jade-like light floated up and swirled around, clearly indicating that it had been enhanced.
After completing all this, Chen Shuangbai finally felt relieved and took out the Spirit Embryo.
This Spirit Embryo resembled a flawless piece of blue jade, its appearance like that of an infant, radiant with light and color, surrounded by a faint blue halo that captivated all who beheld it.
Chen Shuangbai ignored the outward appearance and focused directly on the true nature of the Spirit Embryo.
Its limbs were curled up, maintaining the posture it had taken while gestating in the womb, and there was already a faint, strange fluctuation within it, a sign of the wondrous process of new life being conceived.
This is the Spirit Embryo!
Chen Shuangbai recalled the relevant records he had seen in the cultivation notes of his predecessors and carefully observed the Spirit Embryo.
"The concept of a fetus is governed by the Five Elements, and this Spirit Embryo should belong to the Water element. Its color is a deep blue, like the ocean, and its flowing spiritual energy carries a clear and gentle aura... Hmm, it's most likely the [ Mystic Sea Spirit Embryo ]."
Xuanhai means the extreme of the deep sea, a sign of the boundless blue ocean.
"I just don't know if it was cultivated by the Lord of Cavern Abyss Heaven, or by his disciples or subordinates..."
Thinking about this, Chen Shuangbai couldn't help but sigh slightly.
"Looking at this Cavern Abyss Heaven, the abode of the Water Immortal, it's all deserted... They must have suffered some great calamity and left in a hurry, not even having time to take this Spirit Embryo with them. What a stroke of luck for me."
But it was a sigh of relief, but the seals in Chen Shuangbai's hand did not stop.
"After we get out, we should also give Du Taixuan a proper thank you."
Du Taixuan's external avatar technique, called the " Profound Origin Avatar Method," perfectly solved Chen Shuangbai's immediate problem, but it wasn't very suitable for this [ Mystic Sea Spirit Embryo ].
but...
The Daoist suddenly smiled and chuckled, "What's unsuitable will naturally become suitable once it falls into my hands."
He immediately invoked the Grand Yin, and the [ Great Yin Dao Fruit ] within his sea of consciousness, using this " Profound Origin Avatar Method " as its foundation, synthesized a new method for creating an external incarnation—
" Mystic Sea Jade Embryo Form Refining Method ".
Chen Shuangbai carefully studied this method of creating an external avatar, and after he had almost finished, he began to refine the [ Mystic Sea Spirit Embryo ] using this method.
The Daoist priest raised his hands and formed hand seals, channeling them into the Spirit Embryo while chanting, " The Xuanhai possesses a spirit, the Grand Yin acts as a guide, the jade embryo takes shape, all phenomena return to their true nature..."
A series of profound hand seals, combined with the power of the incantation, transformed into shimmering runes that continuously merged into the Spirit Embryo.
This is an extremely mentally and physically demanding process.
Fortunately, Chen Shuangbai has plenty of time now.
As more and more runes were incorporated into the Spirit Embryo, the Spirit Embryo began to undergo visible changes.
Its body, which was originally sculpted from blue jade, began to grow gradually, as if a piece of raw jade was being carefully carved by an invisible hand, gradually revealing the unparalleled beauty it contained.
Throughout the entire process, Chen Shuangbai could clearly perceive that the hazy consciousness within was accepting her Divine Sense.
He understood that Spirit Embryo, after being nurtured for a long time, would naturally possess a spirit.
However, after being tainted by his own Divine Sense, that hazy spirituality within his consciousness will gradually lean towards Chen Shuangbai himself, eventually turning him into a completely second Chen Shuangbai.
In other words, it can also be called Chen Shuangbai's incarnation.
