Chen Ping'an had written a few incorrect characters on the Lock Slashing Talisman. If he had written the correct characters, then perhaps a bright moon would have risen from the sea the instant that the Wind and Snow Awl made contact with the talisman paper again.
With the incorrect characters, however, it was as if a red sun were rising from the sea. It was as large as the mouth of a well, yet it didn't radiate a scorching heat. Instead, it gave off a feeling of warmth and gentleness.
After Chen Ping'an uttered the words "The sages once said, dragons in the abyss," the red sun seemed to break free from the guidance of the True Qi.
