During this period, Chu Huaixu developed some personal understanding of the so-called Dao Seal.

He started to feel that the Daoist Ancestor’s Seal was quite mysterious.

In fact, relying on the Medicine Cauldron and the Power of Origin, he was already capable of forging a Power of All Things similar to a Dao Seal.

Yet he still chose not to craft this thing on his own, even though, in doing so, he would have the power of voluntary choice.

He was too curious.

Curious about what kind of two characters the Dao Bell would give him.

And at this moment?

What appeared next to the Dao Bell was his name.

——[Huaixu].

Huaixu, also summer.

He did not believe this was a coincidence.

This body’s identity in the Profound Yellow Realm was Huo Dingyi.

In a certain sense, the name Chu Huaixu was one he gave himself, equivalent to using his real name on Earth.

People in the [organization] only had code names, not real names.

Like Niu Yuanshan, who was Mu Bingjiu, the name Niu Yuanshan was randomly chosen by himself before becoming a mole in the Daoist Sect.

In this world, there was originally no Chu Huaixu!

“I clearly altered the Daoist Ancestor’s Proverbs, whether it’s Big Ice Cube’s destiny or Xiaoxu’s destiny, they both changed because of me.”

“There’s no reason for the Dao Ancestor to have foreseen me.”

“If he had foreseen me, why would the proverbs left behind change because of me?”

“But if he hadn’t foreseen me, why would the Dao Bell grant the seal with the characters Huaixu?”

He already investigated, and long ago asked Jiang Zhi and others; this Dao Bell did not belong to the category of Spiritual Artifacts; it lacked spiritual nature.

Precisely speaking, it was just a container for three thousand Dao Seals.

More importantly, in the poem from Xu Ziqing and Han Shuangjiang, there was also a mention of [One Lamp].

Both fire and Huo Dingyi with these three characters together just happen to form [One Lamp].

Chu Huaixu felt somewhat subtly terrified.

But he also wondered if it was merely his own imagination.

——Was the power and prestige of the Dao Ancestor all just my imagination?

After all, if so, whom does the phrase [A Lamp Hanging in the Eternal Night] in Xu Ziqing’s poem refer to?

In Han Shuangjiang’s poem, whom does [A Lamp in the Long Night] refer to?

It couldn’t actually be me, could it…

And now Chu Huaixu was closing his eyes, absorbing the power within [Dao Seal: Huaixu].

To the extent that he hadn’t noticed the related phrases in the poem involving himself for the time being.

At this very moment, he only felt warm all over.

As if the early summer sunlight was shining upon him.

In fact, his feeling was correct.

Because at this moment, it was precisely the month to which [Huaixu] refers.

Huaixu also refers to the fourth month of the lunar calendar.

Today was supposed to be an overcast day.

Yet a golden light pillar descended from the sky, enveloping Chu Huaixu.

It came from the sun obscured by the clouds.

Xiang Yan and others couldn’t help but look up to the sky, surprised at the phenomenon.

“Could it be that his [Nan Liujing] drew the Power of the Sun?” he couldn’t help but speak.

Jiang Zhi furrowed his eyebrows slightly, remaining silent.

Chu Huaixu was always that unique; every opportunity and encounter he displayed was different from others.

Now, not only was the two-character seal granted by the Dao Ancestor peculiar, being his own name, even the format of the poem line was unlike others.

The light pillar originating from the sun connected heaven and earth, visible even a hundred miles away from the Daoist Sect.

——Heaven and Earth Phenomena!

And in a certain aspect, does this not resemble… a lamp?

Or perhaps it was like a pillar of light.

Chu Huaixu could gradually feel the empowerment brought by this two-character Dao Seal.

Strangely enough, it seemed tailored for him personally.

Firstly, it enhanced the Dao Seal [Nan Liujing].

[Huaixu] represents summer, [Nan Liujing] represents the sun, together they form summer sunlight.

It acted as a support effect, enhancing [Nan Liujing]’s power by thirty percent.

In addition, Chu Huaixu’s Body Refining Divine Technique, [Body Ascension], would show a golden mark on his forehead, with golden flames burning in his eyes, making his blood and vitality within his body surge.

This aspect was also strengthened.

Golden flames began to produce a burning effect, and if he entered the Holy Body State, his flesh would possess the power of burning blood and the power of burning golden flames.

The physical output strength was also increased by about thirty percent.

——Blazing summer, scorching sun!

The fearsome power spread all around, causing the surrounding temperature to rise slightly.

Xiang Yan and others exchanged glances, feeling somewhat marveling.

“How even his Body Refining Divine Techniques conveniently received enhancement?” Zhao Shuqi remarked while using Pupil Technique for observation, marveling.

“Furthermore, its restraining power against Yin Cold Qi is incomparable.”

“If he had possessed this Dao Seal before descending the mountain, then when the Evil Cultivator froze Guanghan Cliff, the Power of the Yin Vein would not have been able to harm him.” Zhao Shuqi analyzed.

But at the mention of this matter, the high-ranking members of the Daoist Sect fell into a brief silence.

Finally, it was Nangong Yue who shifted the topic, focusing her gaze on Han Shuangjiang and Xu Ziqing.

The Dao Seal that Xu Ziqing acquired is named “Emperor’s Chariot,” and the Beidou Seven Stars are given such an elegant name because of their special nature.

These seven stars are respectively named: Dubhe, Merak, Phecda, Megrez, Vega, Kaiyang, Yao Guang.

There is another saying: Tan Lang, Giant Gate, Lu Cun, Wenqu, Lianzhen, Wuqu, Po Jun.

Often, people use the Beidou Seven Stars as a benchmark to determine direction, season, and time.

Therefore, they are regarded as a symbol of order.

“The Beidou Seven Stars, near the Ziwei Palace to the south, in Taiwei to the north. This is called the Emperor’s Chariot, which governs and orders, moves in the center, and commands the four corners, establishes the four seasons, balances the Five Elements, shifts the festivals, and sets all records, all tied to the Beidou.”

Their status and significance among the stars are self-evident!

And, it is clear that the Dao Seal left by the Dao Ancestor carries a bit of his personal will.

Now, with Kunlun Cave Heaven attempting an invasion, and a great catastrophe of heaven and earth approaching, if this truly happens, it will be devastation for living beings, and order will collapse!

Then, what power does the reconstruction of order envisioned by the Dao Ancestor require?

—— It is slaughter!

This is somewhat similar to granting Han Shuangjiang the “Returning True Essence” in the past.

It seems that in the eyes of the venerable Dao Ancestor, the two chosen saviors were somewhat too benevolent.

Zhao Shuqi, using Pupil Technique, sensed something quite special.

“Xu Ziqing also has an additional power of stabilization within him.”

His internal order will not be disrupted by external forces.

“This might help him resist the backlash brought by the ‘Bronze Sword.'”

Previously, they had discussed that because of Chu Huaixu’s appearance, Xu Ziqing’s fate had changed.

Previously, using the Bronze Sword came with a tremendous cost.

Now, though the cost seems to have disappeared, the power he can exert has been reduced and can only unleash about seventy percent of the Bronze Sword’s might.

Nevertheless, Xiang Yan and the others still felt that once the Sword Spirit of the Bronze Sword entered his body, the more it controlled him, it could eventually lead to him losing control over his body.

After all, the Restriction left by the Dao Ancestor mainly serves to detach and seal.

It can strip away the control of the Sword Spirit and then seal it off.

However, if a person loses control over their body repeatedly, over time, they may truly lose control, and their internal order would completely collapse!

“Now, this Dao Seal actually resolves this trouble.”

“The Dao Ancestor, worthy of being the Dao Ancestor, always so thorough in his arrangements.”

“And all of this was his handiwork a thousand years ago.”

“Grass snake hides traces a thousand miles long, awe-inspiring.” Zhao Shuqi sighed.

And the power of “Taiyin” on Han Shuangjiang corresponds to the Power of Summer that Chu Huaixu now possesses.

“The sun is the essence of fire, harboring the true fire of the sun, golden in color, extremely yang and firm, burning all things; the moon is the bloom of water, harboring true water of the Taiyin, silver in color, extremely yin and cold, freezing heaven and earth.”

On Chu Huaixu’s side, the ambient temperature subtly increased.

By his side, Han Shuangjiang made the ambient temperature begin to drop.

Her demeanor was inherently cool, and the techniques she practiced all carried the Power of Frost. Her Spiritual Embryo was also the Profound Yin Spiritual Embryo, making for a perfect match.

If Chu Huaixu knew this point at the moment, he would only think: “The Big Ice Cube really has become a Big Ice Cube!”

Jiang Zhi and others looked at these Daoist Sect prodigies and saw the hope of the future.

“These three youths’ future achievements are likely limitless!” Xiang Yan’s face bore a hint of a smile.

As the Sect Leader, he naturally placed immense importance on the inheritance of the sect.

Now, as long as they are present, there’s no concern of the Daoist Sect declining.

As time ticked away, these high-ranking members of the Daoist Sect continued to meticulously observe the changes in them.

Xu Ziqing, the first to obtain a Dao Seal, was the first to open his eyes.

Then followed Han Shuangjiang.

This allowed both of them to witness the heaven-and-earth phenomenon induced by Chu Huaixu!

The young man and woman couldn’t help but look up at the sun in the sky, gazing at the pillar of light descending from the lofty heavens.

They couldn’t help but feel awe and shock in their hearts!

And when Chu Huaixu opened his eyes, golden flames burnt fiercely in his pupils!

Compared to before, they appeared even more intense.

Besides this, even his rank seemed to have risen.

After a few breaths, it gradually faded away, returning to clarity.

And the earth-shattering pillar of light gradually vanished.

Everyone began to speak to each other, sharing their observations.

Chu Huaixu quickly gained a general understanding of the powers obtained by the Big Ice Cube and Xiaoxu.

Immediately, he asked aloud.

“Master Ancestor, revered masters, when I obtained the Dao Seal, were there any verses appearing beside the words ‘Huaixu’?”

Upon hearing this, Xiang Yan wore an odd expression and said, “Rather than a verse, it’s more like a gatha.”

“What’s more peculiar is that typically, the sentence would contain the two words of the Dao Seal within. However, your sentence doesn’t have the words ‘Huaixu’.”

After saying this, he slowly recited the gatha.

After listening, Chu Huaixu felt a tempest arise in his heart once more.

Xiang Yan said:

“‘With one lamp passing on to myriad lamps, all lamps eventually shine brightly.'”

…

(ps: A new month begins, seeking monthly votes to climb the ranks!)
