The ritual was quite routine for Lu Ban.
After some formalities, Amber, dressed in splendid attire, departed under the guidance of the older shrine maidens and entered the main hall's courtyard, where the Shrine Maiden Pavilion stood.
Lu Ban saw a long ladder being set up, and the shrine maidens took Amber into the Shrine Maiden Pavilion. After a while, the shrine maidens left, leaving the Shrine Maiden Pavilion hanging lonely in mid-air.
In the prolonged silence, Lu Ban felt as if something ethereal was entwining around the pavilion, a fleeting connection forming between the Divine Sakura and the Shrine Maiden Pavilion.
The next moment, the Pure Fire was ignited.
Previously, Lu Ban had thought the Shrine maiden's Pure Fire was dazzling enough, but Amber's Pure Fire surpassed all before it.
For a time, the entire world turned into shades of black and white, with even the midday sun unable to compete with Amber's brilliance.
