THIS TAOIST MASTER IS TOO FRIVOLOUS

Chapter 653: Chapter 439: Zhengyi Alliance’s 24-Grade Law Scrolls_2

Yue Niang’s gaze subtly shifted and she asked, “Do you mean… His Majesty may want to use their hands to quell the chaos caused by the netherworld demons among humans?”

Without answering, Xu Yang took out his cellphone and called Ma Long, saying, “Tonight, I’m hosting a banquet at the Guoqiang Food Hall in Wu City for all the immortals… Please, Brother Long, make the announcement.”

Ma Long grumbled, “Is there anything good to eat at Guoqiang Food Hall? The current hand-pulled dough dishes have changed in flavor, and they are ridiculously expensive. In my opinion, the Guofu hand-pulled dough at the south gate is better. Besides, their specialty, the Yellow River perch, is simply unbeatable.”

Xu Yang said, “Alright, alright, we’ll go to Guofu Food Hall then. I’ll reserve a table later.”

He ended the call.

Xu Yang then made a reservation at the restaurant.

Afterwards, he returned to his bedroom and began studying the Daoist talismans.

In Jingming Daoist Sect, what they’re most proficient in is the Daoist flying sword technique. Although Heavenly Master Xu has a civil position in the Heavenly Court, he is in fact a bona fide sword immortal. The story of “Slaying Malevolent Dragons with a Sword” has been circulating among the people for centuries, and it was through swordsmanship that he achieved immortality.

Xu Yang’s swordsmanship wasn’t bad either.

His martial arts primarily focused on “swordsmanship.” After achieving immortality, his swordsmanship was elevated to the “Heavenly Immortal Realm” level and he had already condensed nine sword principles.

But when it came to making talismans…

He fell a bit short.

The most potent talisman recorded in the “Divine Ascension Scripture” is the “Wulei Talisman.”

Speaking of talisman crafting among human Daoist sects, the most powerful would certainly be the “Heavenly Master’s Mansion” at Dragon Tiger Mountain, second to none.

The “Sandong Rule Strip” at Dragon Tiger Mountain, legend has it that Ancestral Master Zhang Daoling received it in a dream from the “Grand Supreme Elderly Lord.” Before achieving Dao, Zhang used a technique known as “talisman water” to heal numerous common people. This talisman technique was extremely profound.

After drawing the “Wulei Talisman” for two hours, Xu Yang took a sack and placed the finished talismans inside. Seeing that it was still early, he transformed into a streak of immortal light and arrived at Dragon Tiger Mountain.

The “Heavenly Master’s Mansion” at Dragon Tiger Mountain had a tradition that spanned more than 2000 years. To this day, it still holds significant influence among global Daoist sects. This is not only because of the reputation of “Zhang Daoling”, but also the countless generations’ effort of the Zhang clan at Dragon Tiger Mountain.

The Zhang family was large and prosperous, with deep resources. Together with the inheritance left by Zhang Daoling and two immortal artifacts, the “Three-Five Evil-slaying Male-Female Sword” and “Yangping Zhidu Gong Seal,” one could say that it would never decline, perhaps lasting another 2000 years… even 20000 years!

Whoosh!

As soon as Xu Yang landed outside the “Heavenly Master’s Mansion,”

The voice of the current Heavenly Master of Dragon Tiger Mountain, Zhang Jiyu, was heard—

“Celestial Master Xu!”

He walked up with large strides and said with a smile, “What brings Celestial Master Xu to our Heavenly Master’s Mansion today? Please come in, come in quickly!”

Xu Yang flipped his hand.

He took out a few bottles of good wine and health products from his storage space and said, “I came in a hurry and brought some small gifts, I hope Celestial Master Zhang won’t take it amiss.”

Today was the third day of the Lunar New Year.

It wouldn’t be appropriate to come empty-handed during the New Year, right?

He entered the Heavenly Master’s Mansion.

Zhang Jiyu ordered someone to prepare drinks and dishes, but Xu Yang stopped him, saying, “No need to trouble yourself, Heavenly Master Zhang, I have already arranged a meal with seventy-two immortals and will be leaving soon… Actually, I came today because I need your help.”

Xu Yang didn’t beat around the bush.

He iterated the situation in the other human regions, saying: “I have been quite busy recently and can’t help in other regions. So, I wanted to make some powerful talismans to help out… But you know, Heavenly Master Zhang, the Jingming Sect isn’t adept at talisman crafting, so I was hoping to have a look at your ‘Sandong Rule Strip.’”

“This…”

Zhang Jiyu hesitated slightly and said, “Given the calamity facing the human world, it’s our duty at Dragon Tiger Mountain to contribute. However, the ‘Sandong Rule Strip’ is our secret technique. Even among the Zhang family disciples from our Heavenly Master’s Mansion, very few can study the ‘Sandong Rule Strip.’ I hope you won’t take offense, Celestial Master Xu, I need to discuss this with our elders.”

He poured a glass of wine for Xu Yang and hurriedly excused himself.

Xu Yang wasn’t surprised or offended.

After all, the ‘Sandong Rule Strip’ was a secret technique of the Heavenly Master’s Mansion at Dragon Tiger Mountain. In ancient times, when family hierarchy was taken seriously, such secret techniques, even if they were from the main lineage of the Zhang family, would only be passed down to men, not women, let alone an outsider like him?

On top of that, he was grateful to Wang Hou.

Over the years, Wang Hou has firmly suppressed the martial arts world, frequently venturing to human clans and families to borrow manuscripts, initiating collaborations, putting all the secret techniques and manuscripts on the official website of the Spirits Management Bureau for sale. This has gradually diminished everyone’s “family pride”.

Of course.

Wang Hou does this for the development of Da Xia’s martial arts.

But let’s think about it from another perspective…

If someone comes to tell you that the treasure your ancestors left you is a “national treasure”, which must be surrendered to benefit the masses, would you be happy?

That’s why it makes sense that the ancestors of these clans and families want to fight Wang Hou as soon as they come into the world.

In the room,

Xu Yang is drinking tea and eating snacks.

Zhang Jiyu, on the other hand, made his way deep into the Celestial Master’s Mansion.

There is a cave-world here. Inside the cave-world, it’s a realm of its own, with villages, cities and vast fields. The spiritual aura is swirling around, even thicker than the outside world.

Back in the day when the earth was “isolated from Heaven”, the cave-world was closed, only able to open once every 60 years at a great cost. Because of this, forces like Dragon Tiger Mountain managed to keep their traditions alive even during the “Heaven-human Barrier”, when spiritual energy was depleted.

On the contrary, those small forces almost disappeared one by one with the “Heaven-human Barrier”.

Now, with the three revitalizations of spiritual aura in the human world, the cave-world no longer needs to be closed. Nevertheless, many people inside Dragon Tiger Mountain’s Celestial Master’s Mansion still cultivate inside the cave-world, and even the fields within the cave-world are constantly being cultivated.

Many old ancestors and masters of the Dragon Tiger Mountain’s Celestial Master’s Mansion usually cultivate in the cave-world.

After all, the cave-world is now connected to the outside world, with no need to worry about being restricted.

Zhang Jiyu entered the cave-world, fell down into the city, and quickly gathered all the elders and old ancestors to discuss the matter.

If it were someone else, these elders and old ancestors would refuse without a thought.

But hearing that it was Xu Yang, everyone started to ponder.

An old man with white hair and beard asked, “Has Xu Yang become an immortal in the human world?”

Zhang Jiyu nodded.

The old man further asked, “If he has become an immortal, why hasn’t he ascended?”

Zhang Jiyu said, “I spoke to Tian Chanzi from Wangwu Mountain last month. He said that on the day Celestial Master Xu became an immortal, the gate of ascension appeared, but it was shattered by some force. At that time, the stars in the sky were shining and heavenly power came down from the heavens, turning into fireworks in the sky above Wangwu Mountain in celebration for Celestial Master Xu.”

The old man’s eyebrows twitched uncontrollably, he couldn’t help but say, “Such large-scale activities… could it be that Xu Yang is the reincarnation of some great power?”

Zhang Jiyu said, “Xu Yang’s identity is unknown for now, but according to the information I have gathered…it is said that Xu Yang comes from the underworld, and it is very likely that he is the progeny left in the human world by the great emperor of the underworld!”

The old man let out a gasp, “What did the Ancestral Master say?”

Zhang Jiyu: “The Ancestral Master did not clarify Xu Yang’s identity, only mentioned that Xu Yang has an extraordinary background. If we encounter any problems related to Xu Yang, we can burn incense and pray for his help.”

The old man opened his eyes wide in anger, “Then why are we still holding a meeting? Hurry and get the portrait of the Ancestral Master!”

Someone brought over a portrait of Zhang Daoling.

Everyone knelt down in front of the portrait and burned incense to pray.

Soon.

A divine sense descended from the Heavenly Court and fell onto the portrait of Zhang Daoling.

Zhang Daoling in the portrait seemed to come to life, moving his mouth and asking, “What’s the matter?”

Zhang Jiyu quickly paid his respects and informed Zhang Daoling of Xu Yang’s request to borrow the Sandong Rule Strip.

In the portrait, Zhang Daoling said, “The Sandong Rule Strip is a secret of my Zhang Clan, how can it be lent out?”

“Um…”

Zhang Jiyu, who was kneeling on the ground, was stunned, as were the other Zhang Clan’s old ancestors and elders. They were surprised that the Ancestral Master actually refused Xu Yang.

However, the next moment, Zhang Daoling in the portrait changed his tone, “Moreover, the Sandong Rule Strip is not much use to Celestial Master Xu now. You go and get the 24-grade Immortal Talisman I left in the human world and give it to Celestial Master Xu… Remember, take the original written by me, not the copied version.”
