Other sects’ spirits: They guard the mountain with formations that subdue demons and ancient divine artifacts that keep everyone safe.
The spirits of my Qingyun Sect: Busy turning everyday life into a joke
The stone lion spirit squats in the latrine collecting “spiritual energy tolls,” while the ants block the door if they don’t pay up in grain;
The medicine cauldron spirit refines pills entirely through gossip. It spread a rumor that Third Senior Brother was “in love with his bed,” and he chased me down three streets with his sword;
The rusty iron sword always crashes into the chicken coop when it takes off, yet insists, “The chicken coop is a better place to comprehend the Dao than the sect leader’s pill furnace”;
Even the laundry platform has become a cleanliness freak, washing the sect leader’s robe into a bellyband and saying, “It’s cooler for sword practice this way.”
Li Goudan (rubbing his forehead): The day I dripped blood to bind them to me, I thought I’d found a group of guardians. Turns out I’d taken in a pile of demanding ancestors.
Now the whole sect’s spirits are waiting for me to clean up after them
“Goudan! The stone lion is fighting the door-panel spirit for the right to guard the latrine again!”
“Goudan! The medicine cauldron handed out reverse-speech pills like candy!”
“Goudan! The rusty iron sword eloped to the chicken coop with the Qingxuan sword!”
Me: ...Maybe I should quit this cultivation business?
The spirits (all bristling): No way! You haven’t shared your osmanthus cakes with us yet!
