A meditating Daoist suddenly gathered the stillness around him as his eyes leisurely opened.
His voice was deep and weighty, each word resonating with a slight tremor in the surrounding airflow:

Four Buddha arms and four Dao arms stretched out in interweaving patterns, the majestic divine power sweeping every inch of the Grotto Heaven.
Above his head, the Void Spiritual Light coalesced to form a pure, flawless Jade Ruyi, its patterns interweaving the star trails of the void, auspicious light rolled, vaguely intertwining with the Gold Attribute essence of the heavens and the earth.
