Liang Qu picked one up and tapped it lightly.
Instantly.
The Magic Conch emitted waves of chanting, somewhat ethereal yet very clear, drawing the crowd's attention.
"It's said that King Huai's territory is famous for cloth shadow, but cloth shadow requires vocalization to vividly convey sound. The Sound-absorbing Conch can record sound, capturing approximately three two-hours and repeating in a cycle.
To use it, just tap it, vibrating the inner cavity. To stop, you need to pour water inside to fill and then clear out the cavity. If you pour in clear oil for around two quarters of an hour, you can re-record."
Master Dixian added: "The Sound-absorbing Conch is used by our Buddhist Sect to record masters' teachings. Many times, when masters teach, they use Buddhist texts, which others might record incorrectly, leading to incomplete capture of the Buddhist sound. Hence, this device is made. The Prayer Beads were borrowed by King Huai; these Magic Conches are gifted to him."
