Chapter 433: The Fire Virtue True Lord Command Talisman! The Severed Hand!
The area where he and Zhang Wei stood was utterly calm. There were no flames, nor searing waves of heat, yet everything around them had been burned into nothingness by the power of those pseudo-mythical fire artifacts.
Zhang Wei was left awestruck by such overwhelming methods.
This Daoist Master Cao Cao may be strong, he thought, but he’s far too impatient. He should’ve taken time to explore carefully. The evil spirits are already gone, how will he find any hidden treasures if he just burns everything to ash?
Zhang Wei could only shake his head slightly. He prided himself on being a treasure-hunting expert, but this Daoist’s strikes were too decisive and too clean that he hadn’t even had the chance to put his skills to use.
When the sea of fire finally faded, all was spotless and silent again. Li Yanchu withdrew the three divine artifacts, and in the air, a single yellowed Peach Talisman floated quietly.
Seeing this, Zhang Wei was dumbfounded. What the hell?!
Li Yanchu extended his hand, his qi surging as he pulled the talisman toward him. Peachwood, the quintessence of the five woods[1], had been used since ancient times to ward off evil and calamity. This talisman, carved with the image of a three-headed, six-armed deity, radiated a heavy, awe-inspiring aura.
It was the Fire Virtue True Lord Command Talisman! It exuded a primeval and mighty energy that made one’s heart tremble.
As Li Yanchu poured a trace of his divine sense into it, he felt an overbearing flame sealed within, a flame brimming with terrifying divine power.
“Well, looks like we found it,” he said with a faint smile toward Zhang Wei.
At that moment, Li Yanchu’s figure seemed to tower before Zhang Wei, his aura so fierce and commanding it made him seem larger than life.
Was I wrong all along? Zhang Wei wondered. So this is the right way to find treasure?
