Kapitel 70: Qing-Yun’s Five Signature Techniques

As Fang Xing recited after the elder, he could sense that the Three Rules and Twelve Admonitions were like an oath of some sort. With every word he spoke, something within his body was being taken away, and the copper lantern beneath the portrait of Yun Youzi began to grow gradually brighter. This was also the moment when he realized that in order to join the Qing-Yun Sect, a simple fabrication alone would not be enough, as one had to also leave behind their Soul Lantern.

The Soul Lantern functioned as its name implied. If one day Fang Xing were to be dispatched elsewhere for a mission or decide on his own will to go on a journey and somehow met the end of his fate, this lantern would then extinguish on its own. It was also possible for the sect to find traces of the cause of death by examining the lantern.
