Chapter 800: Chapter 382: The Three Great Treasures of Dragon Tiger Mountain! Corpse-Slaying Sword, One of the Nine Treasures (2)
The Dharma Seal of the Dragon Tiger Zhang Family is the Orthodox lineage of the world’s Dharma lineages, said to consist of thirty-six Great Seals and seventy-two Small Seals, the most formidable being the [Yang God Celestial City Treasure Seal].
In addition, the Three Mountains Talisman, all belonging to Dragon Tiger, is the foundation of the [Supreme Alliance Authority Talisman] and the fundamental flow of the Celestial Master’s Talisman in the world of Talisman Dao.
Three-Five Sword!
Yang God Seal!
Supreme Talisman!
These three treasures are the core artifacts secretly passed down in the Dragon Tiger Zhang Family.
"The Yang God Celestial City Treasure Seal is with the Northern Zhang Lineage?" Meng Qiwu couldn’t help but ask.
"That’s just what I’ve heard, don’t spread it, to avoid trouble..." Zhao Menglang said in a deep voice.
The Dragon Tiger Mountain Zhang Family’s split between north and south is an open secret within the Daoist Sect, not known to everyone.
After the great tribulation of the Daoist Sect in those years, this family became semi-hidden, and the sudden destruction of Nanzhang back then was even more of a mystery that many do not understand deeply.
However, the [Yang God Celestial City Treasure Seal] originally held by the Southern Zhang Lineage appeared with the Northern Zhang Lineage, which explains a lot.
This lineage now has great power in the north, even the White Crane Temple in Shangjing has to yield somewhat.
Zhang Fan heard this, remained silent; the three treasures of Dragon Tiger Mountain were originally with the Southern Zhang, when Nanzhang was destroyed, Beizhang must have reclaimed the three treasures, it’s not surprising the Yang God Seal is with them.
"Are the Three-Five Sword and Supreme Talisman also with the Northern Zhang?" Li Yishan suddenly asked, assisting Zhang Fan in expressing his doubt.
"It seems the Supreme Talisman is not."
Zhao Menglang’s network is extensive, his sources from various societies, although truth and falsity mix, he surely knows more than the youngsters like Zhang Fan and Meng Qiwu.
"I heard...just heard, don’t spread it around..."
"Brother, don’t worry, we keep our mouths shut." Zhang Fan firmly declared, even addressing changed.
"Recently, the Vice Observatory Master Huo Dharma King of the White Crane Temple encountered a formidable enemy in the Jiangnan area, it’s said the [Supreme Talisman] is in that person’s possession."
These words stirred Zhang Fan’s heart, exchanging a glance with Li Yishan.
"The three treasures of Dragon Tiger Mountain have been secretly passed down in the hands of the Zhang Family’s Clan Leader since ancient times..." Zhao Menglang analyzed.
"This person is not from the Northern Zhang, most likely from the Southern Zhang...surely there’s still incense for this lineage, maybe this person is Lord of Nanzhang, otherwise, how could he inherit the Supreme Talisman?"
As the words fell, Zhang Fan had a general idea and looked at Zhao Menglang with a different gaze.
No wonder this person could mingle in the Qin Chuan area so successfully.
"Brother, what about the Three-Five Evil Slayer? Did it also fall into the hands of the Northern Zhang?" Zhang Fan couldn’t help but ask.
That is the world’s number one magic sword, a symbol of the Zhang Family’s orthodoxy.
"I don’t know about that." Zhao Menglang shook his head.
"The world’s number one magic sword, does not appear unless there is a tribulation, even if it fell into someone’s hands, who would easily reveal it?"
"In today’s world, treasures able to rival it are few, with magic swords, perhaps only..."
Zhao Menglang’s words abruptly ceased.
"Only?" Zhang Fan displayed an unusual expression.
"How can there be another magic sword that can rival the number one sword in the world?" Li Yishan couldn’t help but ask.
"You could say so, or maybe not."
"I heard it from a senior in my youth..." Zhao Menglang chuckled lightly.
"That sword is only in legend, can’t count as real, but that senior said, if true, the only sword that could contend with the Three-Five Sword under heaven is it."
"What’s that?" Zhang Fan and Li Yishan asked in unison.
"Have you heard of [Nine Treasures]?" Zhao Menglang replied with a question.
"That!?" Zhang Fan said somewhat surprised.
"Among the Nine Treasures, there is a sword named [Corpse-Slaying Sword], specifically countering the Three Corpses Illuminating Fate!" Zhao Menglang said in a deep voice.
All things born in the world have both their strength and opponent.
The Nine Techniques passed down in the world are supreme, yet the Nine Treasures are hidden to counter them.
Zhang Fan knows a bit, like the True Dragon Horn counters the Five Elements Mistaken King.
The Void Mirror counters the Vacuum Refining Form.
The Celestial Punishment Ruler counters the Heaven and Earth Stealing Fortune.
The Innate Seal counters the Divine Demon Holy Embryo.
The Corpse-Slaying Sword is the nemesis of [Three Corpses Illuminating Fate].
However, the Nine Treasures are legendary, nearly no one has seen them truly.
Even on that day in the Hundred Thousand Mountains, when Chen Dragon obtained the so-called [True Dragon Horn], Zhang Fan never saw the real appearance of this treasure from start to finish.
"Nine Treasures are mere legends, ethereal and elusive..." Meng Qiwu changed the subject.
Such things are never passed in one sect or one person, as if no one can truly possess them.
Nine Techniques naturally exist, treasures hidden in the red dust, one technique arises, surely a treasure appears.
"Uncle Zhao, what’s interesting about this painting, where did it come from?" Meng Qiwu brought the topic back to the ancient painting before them.
Three major Pure Yang treasures all appearing in one painting, indeed extraordinary, seemingly hiding another mystery.
"It’s a long story..." Zhao Menglang just smiled, not elaborating.
"The painting like this seems aged, what’s depicted is..." Zhang Fan whispered.
"Hard to say, it looks like a demon appearing in the mountains, with the Ancestral Master wielding a sword to defend the Dao, some say an exotic treasure appeared, ill-omen upon sight, the three magic swords gathered to suppress the exotic treasure." Zhao Menglang whispered.
"What exotic treasure is worth the simultaneous action of the three major Pure Yang magic swords?" Meng Qiwu smiled.
"Brother, is this painting purely imagined?" Zhang Fan asked.
"This...is unclear, maybe, after all, if really with the three swords emerging together, an event like that would surely leave records."
Zhao Menglang chuckled, "But this painting is of current creation, at least six to seven hundred years old."
According to Zhao Menglang’s estimation, this painting should be from the Song and Yuan period, though not the work of a master, it holds great significance for those in the Daoist Sect.
"Brother, what’s the price of this painting?"
"Brother, interested?" Zhao Menglang heard the tone and showed a regretful expression.
"Brother, you have a good eye, but unfortunately this painting is not for sale, there are personal connections involved."
"Connections?"
"To be honest, this painting was gifted by a senior, I helped him with some goods in early years, he gave me the painting in return..." Zhao Menglang looked at the ancient painting, sighing.
This painting being here indicates the connection remains, with that senior, it’s great fortune if sought in the future.
"Uncle Zhao, which senior?" Meng Qiwu couldn’t help but ask.
Zhao Menglang’s influence in Chang’an, even throughout Qin Chuan, is great; he can directly contact the Sect Leader of Zhongnan Mountain, Zhou Kong Zen, thus an ordinary senior should not be regarded so highly by him.
"I am not unwilling to part, not making up a lie to deceive family brothers." Zhao Menglang smiled bitterly.
"That senior isn’t famous, saying his name you wouldn’t know."
With these words, Zhao Menglang paused slightly, then reluctantly said, "That senior is from the Pure Yang Xu Family, later entered Maoshan to cultivate, his seniority is great, but his personality is quite reclusive, adept in robbery...archaeology!"
"Pity his dragon-seeing-the-head-hiding-the-tail nature, I have not seen him for many years." Zhao Menglang sighed.
He made his fortunes partly by relying on Zhongnan Mountain, partly because of this senior.
He was a remarkable man, able to navigate the large tombs of Qin Chuan Beimang like he’s at home, leaking treasures from his fingers more valuable than the entire market combined.
"Xu!? Good at archaeology? Does Maoshan have such a senior?" Meng Qiwu revealed suspiciousness.
Such a person, she hadn’t even heard of.
"I said it, he doesn’t like publicity, even if told, you wouldn’t know," Zhao Menglang said with a wry smile to Zhang Fan.
"Brother, you don’t believe, do you?"
"That senior’s name is..."
"Xu Xuan Guan!?" Zhang Fan suddenly declared.
"Hm!?" Zhao Menglang heard this, first stunned, then his eyes suddenly brightened.
"Brother, you know him!?"
