Mausoleum Of The Celestial Master Of Maoshan

The secret arts of Maoshan are unparalleled in the world, a blessed land of caves and paradises, and the authentic Daoist lineage! During the Northern Song Dynasty, Emperor Zhezong bestowed the Eight Treasures of Maoshan to guard the region, eliminate evil, uphold the Dao, and benefit the people. However, the internal strife within the Maoshan sect has persisted for centuries, and the story will unfold through the supernatural events occurring around me. Divining the heavens, observing taboos in all directions, drawing talismans to exorcise spirits, and employing secret arts to break the mysteries of the universe—are the tales of ghosts and monsters circulating in the folk true or false? Why are the esteemed figures of the Daoist sect slandered and ostracized? Does the realm of yin and yang truly exist? As a descendant of the authentic Maoshan Daoist lineage, I will unveil the mysterious veil of the world of Daoist magic for you! In the deep autumn of 1957, on this night, I walked among the desolate weeds, knife in hand, more than ten miles north of Hongtong County, Shanxi.

The bone-cutting knife is a treasured possession that my grandfather relied on to make a living for decades, as he was a renowned craftsman in the surrounding areas. He was not a butcher or a carpenter, but rather a fearsome skinner. However, while passing by a graveyard, he encountered a pair of eerie blue ghostly eyes. Upon returning home, my grandfather found a female fox that had just reached maturity but had died. That night, I had a beautiful dream in which I married a lovely maiden, but soon after, calamity struck one after another. Could it be that the one who married me in my dream was actually the spirit of that fox? Fortunately, a passing Taoist priest encountered me, revealed the truth, rescued me, and took me on a bizarre and mysterious journey filled with wonders.
