Many people began to have a thought:
Could it be that the Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber truly possess the power to command the world, as the famous saying suggests?
To do this, you must first collect both weapons and then unravel their secrets.
What exactly is that secret?
Thinking of this, many people couldn't help but look at Bai Yutai, holding their breath and feeling extremely nervous.
Su Chen looked helpless.
Heaven and earth hold mysteries, yin and yang are divided into two poles, women are examined by their bone structure, and men by their facial features.
These are the rules set by the system.
But if you asked him to examine the bones of people like Li Hanyi, Wu Zetian, and Zhu Yuyan, he would be quite willing.
Chapter 126 Sudden realization
But if he were to examine Abbess Miejue's bones, that would be truly hard to accept.
But the rules couldn't be broken, so Su Chen had no choice but to bite the bullet and do as he was told.
The system quickly responded:
"Successfully told Abbess Miejue's fortune."
"Congratulations, host, on obtaining the divine skill manual 'Eight Fierce Mystic Fire Formation'."
Eight Fierce Fire Formation?
Upon hearing this name, Su Chen's eyes lit up immediately.
The discomfort he felt from having his bones touched by Abbess Miejue immediately vanished.
This formation is no ordinary formation.
It draws upon the spiritual energy of the underground fire veins to summon the legendary "Crimson Flame Beast," which possesses astonishing power.
It's simply the perfect way to travel and protect your home.
If one cultivates to the extreme, one can even summon the even more powerful "Eight Desolate Fire Dragon".
At least in this world where strength reigns supreme, Su Chen felt that no one could defeat the Eight Desolate Fire Dragon.
Even Haotian wouldn't do it!
Having obtained such a secret manual, he felt that his efforts in examining Abbess Miejue's bones were not in vain.
After seeing off Abbess Miejue, Su Chen composed himself, opened his folding fan, and said loudly:
"The rumors about the Heaven Sword and the Dragon Saber are probably familiar to everyone."
"There's definitely some exaggeration involved."
"But there is indeed a secret hidden in these two weapons, and their value far exceeds their value."
"This secret is hidden in the blades of the Heaven Sword and the Dragon Saber."
"Because their materials are extremely special and very strong, they will only break when they collide with each other, thus allowing the secret manual hidden inside to be retrieved."
0·············
"That's why there's the saying that 'the secret to the Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber is to collect both the Heaven Sword and the Dragon Saber.'"
"As for what secret manual is inside, it's actually quite simple."
"Hidden inside the Dragon-Slaying Saber is a military treatise written by Mu Guiying, the great military genius of the Song Dynasty, which is called 'The Military Treatise of Mu Guiying'."
"This book contains many strategies for military operations. If you can understand it, you will have no problem leading troops into battle."
"That's why there's the saying, 'The supreme martial artist wields the Dragon-Slaying Saber, commands the world, and none dare disobey.'"
"The so-called supreme martial arts master, who commands the world, does not rely on martial arts skills, but on invincible military strategies."
"And hidden within the Heaven Sword are the two ultimate martial arts techniques, the Nine Yin Manual and the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms."
.....................
"Everyone is familiar with the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms. It is the signature martial art of the Beggars' Sect, passed down through generations. It is known as the most powerful and yang palm technique in the world."
"In comparison, the Nine Yin Manual is more profound and is an all-encompassing supreme Taoist classic."
"Friends in the martial arts world of the Song Dynasty should be familiar with the Nine Yin Manual."
"When the Nine Yin Manual appeared twenty years ago, it stirred up almost half of the martial arts world. Masters from all sides fought endlessly for this book."
"Finally, masters from all walks of life gathered at Mount Hua, which led to the famous Mount Hua Sword Tournament."
"Even now, the five people who won the Mount Hua Sword Tournament are still well-known and are known as the Five Greats of the Song Dynasty."
"Although everyone knows that the Nine Yin Manual is a very powerful martial art, few people know its true origin."
"In fact, the Nine Yin Manual was first written by a civil official of the Song Dynasty a hundred years ago."
"This man is named Huang Shang. He was a scholar who passed the imperial examination with top honors and entered the court as an official, rising through the ranks."
"When he was sixty-seven years old, he was ordered by the emperor to copy 5,481 volumes of Taoist books from all over the country, which were collectively known as the 'Wanshou Daozang' (Longevity Taoist Canon)."
Huang Shang was cautious in his work and afraid of making mistakes, so he carefully proofread every word and sentence.
"It took him four years to thoroughly study all the Taoist books and comprehend the profound meaning of martial arts from the principles of Taoism."
"That year, the Daoist Canon of Longevity was completed, and Huang Chang, at the age of seventy-one, sensed the secrets of heaven and broke through to the realm of a terrestrial immortal."
"Later, he compiled these martial arts essentials into a book called 'Nine Yin Manual'."
"To put it bluntly, it's the current first volume of the Nine Yin Manual."
Inside the Ascension Pavilion, everyone's faces showed surprise.
No one could have predicted that the Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber would contain such a significant secret.
This made many people realize the truth.
The phrase "The supreme martial arts weapon, the Dragon-Slaying Saber. Commanding the world, none dare disobey" is utterly baffling.
Even if it's a divine weapon, how much can it increase combat power? How can one person command the entire world?
Now everyone understands that the reason why the Dragon-Slaying Saber could command the world was because the "Martial Arts Manual of Yue Fei" was hidden inside the saber.
Yue Fei, the military genius of the Song Dynasty!
The name "687" is renowned, and he is hailed as the greatest general in the world in military strategy.
Back then, Yue Fei's army was invincible, and neighboring countries were terrified of him.
Many people believe that if Yue Fei had lived another twenty years, the territory of the Song Dynasty could have at least tripled.
"687," but unfortunately the emperor at the time was incompetent and listened to the slander of treacherous officials, which ultimately led to the unjust death of the great military strategist Yue Fei in prison.
If someone truly obtained the "Wumu Legacy," inherited Yue Fei's military strategies, and commanded a million-strong army, it would not be an exaggeration to say that he could command the world.
As for the phrase "Without the Heaven Sword, who can contend?", it is much easier to understand.
The Nine Yin Manual and the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms hidden in the Heaven Sword are both top-tier martial arts of their time.
Acquiring any one of these skills would make one a master, making it incredibly easy to take the head of an enemy general amidst a million-strong army.
If someone obtains both the Heaven Sword and the Dragon Saber at the same time, and the two weapons clash, they will be able to learn all their secret techniques.
Such a person could become a great hero with unparalleled martial arts skills, and many people naturally thought of one person.
That was Bai Qi, the god of war from back then!
Legend has it that Bai Qi possessed extraordinary abilities and his military strategies were unpredictable and divine.
It was this Lord Wu'an of Qin who laid the foundation for the Qin Dynasty.
From this perspective, the value of the Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber is even higher than what is said in the martial arts world.
Not only are they treasures to those in the martial arts world, but even various dynasties wanted to possess them.
What is most surprising are the Jianghu figures of the Song Dynasty.
Yue Fei was undoubtedly the greatest military genius in the history of the Song Dynasty.
Even the Beggars' Sect's "Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms" originated in the Song Dynasty and was later passed down to the martial arts world of the Ming Dynasty.
As for the "Nine Yin Manual," it was created by Huang Shang, a civil official of the Song Dynasty, a hundred years ago, which is absolutely true.
From this perspective, the Dragon-Slaying Saber and the Heaven-Reliant Sword that are now circulating in the martial arts world should originally belong to the Song Dynasty.
Immediately, the people in the hall began to discuss among themselves:
"My God! I never imagined that the Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber contained such secrets."
"So that's how it is! I finally understand why these two weapons are so precious; they truly are peerless divine weapons."
"What? The 'commanding the world' of the Dragon-Slaying Saber refers to the 'Military Manual of Yue Fei'? What use would a martial arts master like me have for a military treatise?"
"Now it seems that for people in the martial arts world, the Heaven-Reliant Sword is the real treasure, and the Dragon-Slaying Saber is completely useless!"
"That's right! The Heaven Sword contains the Nine Yin Manual and the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms. Whoever gets it will immediately rise to prominence!"
Chapter 127 Surprise
"Damn it! Whether it's the 'Martial Arts Manual of Yue Fei,' the 'Nine Yin Manual,' or the 'Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms,' they all belong to our Great Song Dynasty. The Heaven-Slaying Sword and the Dragon-Slaying Saber should rightfully belong to the Great Song Dynasty!"
"Indeed, there are still many secrets in the world that are unknown to others. If the Celestial Immortal had not revealed them, I would not have known that the Great Song Dynasty had produced a terrestrial immortal like Huang Chang a hundred years ago."
"At the age of sixty-seven, he became a terrestrial immortal after only four years of schooling. This Huang Shang is too amazing!"
It's in the third private room on the south side of the fifteenth floor.
Murong Fu exclaimed in shock, "What? The Nine Yin Manual was actually created by a court official?"
The four retainers all showed expressions of surprise.
Although no one in the martial arts world has ever mastered the Nine Yin Manual, this martial art is very famous.
When the Nine Yin Manual was first published, the entire martial arts world of the Song Dynasty was shaken.
But few people know about its origin.
