In the wilderness, people often use low-grade, medium-grade, and high-grade to distinguish the levels of magic weapons.
Low-grade and mid-grade magic weapons usually have at least one special effect or attribute, which can improve the practitioner's combat effectiveness to varying degrees.
High-grade magic weapons not only have special effects, but also often possess the true meaning of the Great Dao, which are of great help to monks in their daily practice and enlightenment.
On top of this, there are also "famous instruments".
There are twelve famous weapons in Dahuang.
According to legend, they were all the natal objects left by the ascended immortals in the human world - under the long-term care and tempering of the immortals, they all possess their own spiritual intelligence and powerful power. Each one is extremely powerful and possesses The ability to influence the situation in the wilderness.
For thousands of years, many monks and forces have been flocking to them, and countless overt and covert battles have taken place to compete for them.
The "Tai'a Sword" left by Emperor Taizu of Daqi is one of the twelve famous weapons.
It not only has the power to frighten all living beings, but can also gather the fortune of the whole country for its own use.
The Daqi Dynasty also established a rule for the succession of the throne around this "Tai'a Sword" -
Among the princes and daughters, whoever can be recognized by the "Tai'a Sword" will become the next emperor of the Daqi Dynasty.
It sounds a bit simple and crude.
But it is not difficult to understand.
After all, the "Tai'a Sword" was once the natal possession of Emperor Taizu, and its weapon spirit is equivalent to the incarnation of Emperor Taizu left in the world.
The logic of choosing the owner of "Tai'a Sword" is also very simple and crude.
That is - "Choose the strongest person".
Of course, "powerful" here not only refers to cultivation, but also includes courage, wisdom, military exploits, followers, and many other aspects.
Because of this, in order to become the next owner of the "Tai'a" sword, every prince and princess in the Daqi Dynasty was keen on practicing and killing ghosts.
Only Princess Zhaoning, who had no talent for cultivation, became the current person in charge of the worldly affairs of Da Qi.
…………
The young man called "His Royal Highness" outside the Qingzhou Exorcist Department's office is named Xiao Shangyuan, and his true identity is the eldest son of the emperor of the Daqi Dynasty.
The white-haired old man next to him, known as "Uncle Fan", was worshiped by the Daqi royal family, and his name was Fan Cheng.
They came to Qingzhou Mansion this time to deal with Yishan Snow Girl.
According to the information they received, Yishan Snow Girl's current strength is equivalent to that of a monk at the peak of the sixth realm, and there is still a big gap between her and the level of a saint in the seventh realm.
Fan Cheng is a genuine sixth realm monk.
Although Xiao Shangyuan only has a cultivation level of the fifth realm, because he practices the "Dragon Heart Sutra", an ancestral technique passed down by the royal family, he has the ability to fight across borders and never loses in battles with monks of the sixth realm.
Because of this, they had the courage to break into the Yishan restricted area.
"Uncle Fan, if I can successfully kill the Yishan Snow Girl this time and solve this scourge for the people of Jiaodong, it will be difficult for my younger brothers and sisters to surpass me in merit!" After a moment, Xiao Shangyuan took a deep breath. After taking a breath, he couldn't help but ask Fan Cheng, the old man beside him.
"Maybe," the white-haired old man Fan Cheng thought for a moment and replied, "But... Young Master, please forgive me, the reason why you are ahead of them now is partly because you were born earlier than them. , You have practiced longer than them. Once you relax, they may catch up at any time."
Hearing his words, Xiao Shangyuan smiled slightly and said seriously: "I understand."
He knew that Uncle Fan had always been an outspoken person.
But compared to the group of guys in the palace who flatter themselves all day long and never tell the truth, he would rather communicate with people like Uncle Fan.
Because it takes no brainer, you don’t need to spend a lot of energy to distinguish the implication of each sentence.
At this moment, Xiao Shangyuan suddenly felt a strange fluctuation of true energy around him.
"Is there anyone else around here?"
He immediately narrowed his eyes and looked around.
Then his eyes fell on the waste basket at the gate of the Yamen.
He clearly felt that this waste basket was the source of true energy fluctuations.
"How strange!" He said secretly in his heart.
Thinking of this, he waved slightly towards the wastebasket.
A crumpled yellow paper flew out of the waste basket and landed firmly in his hand.
It was actually a piece of talisman paper that had been used!
But the question is, why can there be such pure and powerful real energy fluctuations on an abandoned talisman?
"Master, what is this?" Fan Cheng asked.
"Let me take a look... this should be a 'Fengxing Talisman' that has been used by someone, but it looks different from the ordinary 'Fengxing Talisman'." Xiao Shangyuan frowned slightly, while speaking, he held the Talisman in his hand. The paper was handed to Fan Cheng.
Fan Cheng took the talisman and observed it carefully.
Although he is not a talisman master, as a monk in the sixth realm, his knowledge is extraordinary. In addition, he has a close relationship with the Daqi Imperial Master, so he also has a certain understanding of the talisman and seal art.
The talisman paper in front of him is indeed a "Wind Talisman", but its rune pattern is more complex than the "Wind Talisman" that Fan Cheng has seen before, and it also contains more powerful power.
Moreover, every stroke and every painting looks smooth and elegant, without the slightest restraint or hesitation.
It can be seen that the talisman master was very confident when he was drawing the talisman - because only with a well-thought-out approach can he draw such strokes that look like flowing clouds and flowing water.
Fan Cheng had seen this kind of ease in the Grand Master of Qi before.
Fan Cheng pondered for a moment and then said: "This is indeed a 'Wind Talisman'. It's just that it has been improved and takes effect longer than before."
"Has it been improved?" Xiao Shangyuan was a little surprised.
In his opinion, improving the talisman and seal script is something that only a talisman master can do.
Could it be that there is a Talisman Master hidden in the Qingzhou Prefecture’s Exorcist Department?
"Are there any monks who are good at Talismans in this Qingzhou government office?" He turned his head and asked Fan Cheng beside him.
"As far as I know, there does seem to be a guest named Tao here who practices Talismanism." Fan Cheng thought for a while and replied, "It's just because he has never been well-known. I don't know what his level of Talismanism is." How high...
"But if this talisman is really drawn by him, it undoubtedly shows that his level of talisman has been underestimated by the outside world before."
"Uncle Fan, we must meet Mr. Tao after we come back from Yishan!" Xiao Shangyuan's voice suddenly became a little excited, "You should understand that a Fu Dao master will be very important to me in my fight for inheritance in the future. What a powerful boost!”
As he spoke, he took back the discarded "Wind Talisman" talisman from Fan Cheng's hand and held it tightly in his hand.
"Master, your idea is very good, but you must also understand that the Da Qi Dynasty treats the Talisman Masters very well. They can draw the Talisman quietly and there is no need to participate in these disputes-"
"——I will try my best to give him satisfactory conditions!" Xiao Shangyuan took a deep breath and said firmly.
…………
At the same time, inside the yamen. "Master Wei, take us to the Lu family's haunted house quickly! We don't want to waste any more time!"
"Go now? Why don't you rest here for a while?"
"That's right, now." Chu Fengge urged in an impatient tone.
Wei Jiusi nodded and was about to agree.
"Wait!" At this moment, Gu Xu suddenly said to Wei Jiusi, "Master Wei, can you tell us the information you know about the Lu family's haunted house?"
