But despite their blurriness, all the characters were distinct; Xiao Mu counted carefully, attempting to discern exactly how many characters there were in total, only to discover that the characters differed amongst each other, with the characters at the beginning being the clearest, becoming increasingly indistinct towards the back.
Xiao Mu's eyes ached from looking, but he could vaguely make out what seemed to be nine characters before it all became too blurry to distinguish not only what the characters were, but even whether there were any characters at all.
"With the enhancement of the level of the Great Decree, a clear authority has finally emerged, a pity that my strength is too weak and the level of the Great Decree is insufficient; if it could be elevated further, perhaps these characters could all be revealed."
After putting away the Great Decree, Xiao Mu reached into the Earth Seal Space and, when his hand emerged, he was already holding the Door God Command.
With the Door God Command in hand, Xiao Mu felt a bit relieved, "At least it wasn't all for nothing; I've acquired the Door God Command."
"Regrettably, the Door God Command belongs to the lower ranks of Divine Spirits within the Yin God, and the Door God's position is not considered powerful."
The Door God Command in his grasp emitted a faint chill; Xiao Mu toyed with it for a moment, then suddenly a thought struck him, stirring his heart.
"From the legacy of the Lord of Bai's Mansion last time, I obtained two Cultivation Methods. The first, 'Three Elements Refining Appearance Technique,' I've already cultivated, and it's indeed very powerful. That leaves 'The King's Enthronement Technique.'"
"I hadn't begun to cultivate it before because the conditions were insufficient, for 'The King's Enthronement Technique' requires the use of another's power. Now, I can try it with this Door God Command."
Thinking this, Xiao Mu immediately sprang into action.
He recalled the cultivation method for 'The King's Enthronement Technique' and released the Seal of the Heavenly Emperor.
The Seal of the Heavenly Emperor spun in the air above Xiao Mu's head, with supreme authority cascading down, immediately creating a layer of golden glow before him.
At that moment, Xiao Mu pointed his finger, and the Door God Command, previously placed to his right, flew up and landed beneath the golden glow of the Seal of the Heavenly Emperor.
Buzz buzz buzz!
The Door God Command trembled; under the Emperor's Might, it faced great suppression, shaking violently under the cover of the golden glow.
Effective!
The changes in the Door God Command pleased Xiao Mu. This was the first step in cultivating 'The King's Enthronement Technique'; next, he needed to infuse the Emperor's Might into the Door God Command, etching his own unique authority symbol within it.
After accomplishing this, a subordinate relationship between the Door God Command and the Seal of the Heavenly Emperor would be established, under the Seal of the Heavenly Emperor.
Its authority partially stemmed from the Seal of the Heavenly Emperor, under the compulsion of the Emperor's Might, but simultaneously, the power of the Emperor's Might would also enhance the Divine Power of the Door God Command.
Xiao Mu followed the principles recorded in 'The King's Enthronement Technique', injecting the Emperor's Might into the Door God Command bit by bit, leaving his own mark within it.
During this process, the Door God Command continued to tremble violently, showing extreme unrest and developing a resistance.
However, as Xiao Mu's infusion of the Emperor's Might persisted, the Door God Command gradually quieted down, and with the final bit of authority infused, it completely submitted.
Buzz buzz buzz!
The Door God Command trembled again, bending toward the Seal of the Heavenly Emperor, akin to bowing in worship. Xiao Mu knew that was the sign of submission.
After accomplishing this step, Xiao Mu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
This meant his first attempt at cultivating 'The King's Enthronement Technique' was successful.
Next, all he needed to do was to gift the Door God Command to another, which would effectively mean gaining another subordinate for Xiao Mu.
Of course, by having one more 'subordinate,' it implied authority, not an increase in Xiao Mu's actual power.
Whether it would enhance Xiao Mu's power depended on the relationship between Xiao Mu and the recipient.
But even with just the authority on his side, it was terrifying enough, meaning that Xiao Mu, possessing the Heavenly Emperor's Might, could not only completely control the other's authority but could also leverage it to enhance his own.
As for how much it could be enhanced, that would depend on the circumstances.
Picking up the Door God Command, Xiao Mu sent a Divine Sense into it, probing the interior of the Door God Command.
In his hand, the Door God Command trembled, much like a servant in the presence of their master.
At this moment, the Door God Command opened up completely before Xiao Mu, without any disguise.
The next second, in the center of the Door God Command, Xiao Mu saw the symbol he had left, which exclusively belonged to him, the same symbol he had imprinted on the Emperor's Seal when casting it:
"Holding fate in hand, supreme over the lands" along with his own name.
This short text was now imprinted within the Door God Command.
"If I were to gift the Door God Command to someone else, would the recipient see it? Would they feel like I'm plotting against them if they see this text?" Xiao Mu looked at the text unique to him, engraved inside the Door God Command, with some worry.
And just at that moment, a strange feeling suddenly arose in his heart, so clear it was as if a brand new knowledge had poured into his brain.
"What I cannot see, others cannot see either."
"In fact, after using 'The King's Enthronement Technique' to establish authority, this Door God Command would be mine even if I gifted it to someone else; it would still belong to me."
"Its relationship with me is like that of the Official Seal to the emperor: the emperor bestows the Official Seal upon an official, allowing them to exercise corresponding authority."
"Objects sealed with 'The King's Enthronement Technique' function similarly, as imperial gifts, and the emperor can reclaim them at will, whenever desired."
