Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 1983 (One Thousand Nine Hundred and Eighty-Three)

He found that suddenly a white smoke rose from the green mountains and flew towards the rectangular transparent jade, as if it was injected into the jade. Then the rectangular transparent jade turned back into white jade, but it became white jade emitting white light.

He flapped his wings and flew down from the green hill to look at the white jade, and the white jade stopped emitting white light. At this time, he saw that the white jade had turned into a piece of white jade that was very similar to the one Yue Xianhe gave him - except that there were no small flowers or plants painted on it.

The piece of white jade rose into the air and flew in the direction from which he had come, as if pulling him.

He then followed Bai Yu and flew in the direction he had come from.

As he flew, he felt the world around him gradually become blurred, and soon he could not see anything.

He seemed to hear a voice telling him that he could open his eyes.

Only then did he feel that he should be in a room performing the ritual according to what Yue Xianhe had said before.

He opened his eyes and saw that the piece of white jade on the table was no longer glowing, and the small flowers and plants painted on it were all gone.

Tie Jinjue thought: Fortunately, everything is normal.

Yue Xianhe told him that when he finished this step, he would see that the small flowers and plants painted on the white jade disappeared, and he could recite another short spell, and the incense and candles would go out by themselves. Then he could take the white jade to another room to proceed to the next step. He did not need to put away the things in this room for the time being. The things that had been used before should be put away after sunset, and no one else could enter the room before that. Yue Xianhe specifically emphasized to Tie Jinjue that he must go to the other room when taking the next step, and that he must close the doors of both rooms.

Tie Jinjue chanted another short spell.

The incense and candles were all extinguished.

Tie Jinjue put the white jade in his pocket, left the room, and quickly locked the door from the outside. The incense, candles and other things he had used before were also placed in the room. Tie Jinjue went to another room and quickly locked the door from the inside.

He sat on a chair and did what Yue Xianhe had told him before.

He placed his left hand on his left knee, palm facing up, with his hand naturally bent, and placed the rectangular white jade in his left hand.

Tie Jinjue moved his left hand towards the middle of his body, to the position facing his dantian, and stopped.

He moved his right hand to the vicinity of his dantian, gently grabbed the white jade, and then pulled it to the right so that the middle of the white jade was almost exactly between his left and right hands.

He clasped the fingers of both hands on the white jade and held it tightly.

After closing his eyes, Tie Jinjue recited a short spell that Yue Xianhe had taught him before.

Then he sat quietly.

After a while, he felt an itch in the palms of his hands, and he knew that all the formal work had been done, and all that was left to do was to continue holding the white jade to consolidate it.

Yue Xianhe did not tell him how much time it would take to consolidate, but he knew that Yue Xianhe had once told him that from the time he chanted the spell in that room to the time he took the white jade to consolidate, the total time would be one hour, and then he would stop consolidating.
