Slaughter the chicken
Command the thunder and cut the sacrifice
This chicken wears a golden crown shining like the sun, with phoenix claws reaching the clouds. Its body is like a golden bell, and it walks like a colorful phoenix. Its crow shakes heaven and earth, echoing and crowing, startling all within ten thousand miles. Under the window of Emperor Song, it crowed high at the sun. In the Hangu Pass, it reported the dawn at the fifth watch. It was formed by holding the creation of heaven and earth, and its nature was nurtured by metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. Borrowing your righteousness, we sacrifice to our generals. Everything is cut off, and we take the blood wine to offer to the Thunder God. With both wings flying, the shed feathers ascend to the Purple Palace. It is not that we cruelly slaughter your living soul, but it is the orthodox tradition of our ancestral masters' lineage. The Dragon Knife cleaves your spirit, the Tiger Sword severs your form. The Thunder Bureau personally enjoys the offering; swiftly manifest your spiritual power.

(The Master recites):
Blood Oath
This blood wine rouses the majestic power of the Heavenly Generals and praises the bravery of the official army. Banners block out the sun, and their strength can move mountains and uproot trees; swords and blades gleam like frost, and their aura can overturn the earth and flip the sky. When capturing monsters, they eliminate all traces; when executing evil demons, they destroy their nests. The Thunder Gods are just, and the Heavenly Generals are selfless. Drinking the jade nectar fully, their faces show the color of peach blossoms. Greatly manifesting their responses, together they forge a name as firm as metal and stone. Thunder Gods, listen attentively to my words. We must read the books of sages and enforce the laws of heaven. To bring life to the common people through spiritual prosperity, grace and duties are divided within the Thunder Bureau. I do not know if they have merits, but who among men can be without faults? I summon and command you, to my left and to my right. As brothers, as arms and legs, as heart and soul, as sworn friends. The mountains shall not move, and the seas shall not dry up. Enduring as long as heaven and earth, shining as bright as the sun and moon. The wind and rain before our eyes are released and gathered at will. The thunder in the palm of the hand is breathed out and in. Flying and soaring, playing music, subduing demon spirits. One thought, one visualization, ten thousand spirits respond ten thousand times. Words spoken are done, and the spirits are excused. Now I offer this blood wine as an oath to you: The first drop swears to Heaven, aligning with the heart of Heaven above. If Heaven betrays me, the sun and moon will lose their light. The second drop swears to Earth, aligning with the peace of Earth below. If Earth betrays me, grass and trees will not grow. The third drop swears to you, Thunder Gods and Heavenly Generals. All align with the generals' hearts. If the generals betray me, the heavenly law will punish them. If I betray the generals, my Daoist magic will lose its power. I am now utterly sincere, and you shall manifest your response. Our two minds support each other, swearing an alliance for all lifetimes. I now act, and you must swiftly obey, promoting good and eliminating harm, with merits recorded in the Heavenly Court. Officers and generals, drink the wine and depart without delay.

Building the Bridge
Respectfully, the dragon returns to the great sea, and the tiger roars on the high mountain. I now perform the opening of the eyes, inviting the gods to receive their forms. With divine transformations and majestic spirits, the skilled craftsman steps his feet on the dragon's head. Passing through the dew of the human realm, humans possess the spirit of all things, newly creating these wondrous forms for the mortal world. Since Pangu separated heaven and earth, Li Laojun taught the orthodox path through classic texts. Confucius taught human ethics to his disciples. The Ancestral Heavenly Master refined elixirs and medicines to save the people, understanding the orthodox path to become a blessing god, able to receive sacrifices from the human realm. Looking at the precious form and offering worship, there will be divine spirits. Without gods, humans are not spiritual; without humans, gods do not respond. Making this image and appearance, revering all matters in prayer. The gods will surely respond, with light shining through the body, reflecting colorful garments. The faithful must provide wealth, sighing at the wondrous hands of the disciple. Achieving the immediate merit, naturally forming the later decorations. The main countenance of the Jade Saint, with majestic and brilliant spirit. Essence and spirit bright and fierce, vast and mighty heroic glory.

A thousand transformations and ten thousand changes, vast divine powers, True Man and Son of Heaven, reaching the Dragon King, from whence they originally came.
Washing the Face

Kind thoughts to all heavens, sharing blessings and honoring the sage's transformation. The two realms are built, the six directions are bright again. Saving the faithful people, expelling the eight disasters, auspicious stars shining high, sharing the Dao with sincerity. Specially for the disciple, opening the spiritual light of the wondrous form, shining upon the layered splendor. Therefore, the sun is sorrowful and the moon dim; the sun and moon are often windy and cannot turn. At this time, golden light shines upon the eyes, and the twin compassionate sun and moon illuminate heaven and earth. Assisting the country and pacifying the state for peace, the thousand-year Fortune Lord's incense is spiritual for ten thousand years. The original face is still there., today newly adorned with colorful radiance.
Decree Brush
Respectfully considering, in the morning judging the realm, in the evening transmitting human ethics. The divine brush is spiritual, opening and bestowing bright light. The divine brush is black, opening and bestowing ears and eyes. The divine brush is azure, opening and bestowing divine light. This brush is no ordinary brush, the Patriarchal Master passed down three brushes: The first was passed to Confucius, teaching three thousand disciples and seventy-two sages. The second brush was passed to Shakyamuni, to relieve suffering, rescue from hardship, and save living souls. The third brush was passed to the Patriarchal Heavenly Master, to subdue demons, protect the Dao, and aid the people of the world. This brush consists of a few hairs, yet when it touches paper it is like a golden blade. Firstly, it writes longevity and wealth; secondly, it writes a hall filled with gold, jade, and fortune; thirdly, it writes prosperity for the family and wealth. This brush is no ordinary brush, passed down by the Patriarchal Master to bestow divine light, writing talismans to aid emergencies and spread across the world. The Patriarchal Heavenly Master passes the brush to the disciple, I now take the brush to open and bestow divine light.
