"Arcane Compendium": Explosive Flame Flying Sword

Spell name: Explosive Flame Flying Sword

Basic attributes: Intermediate fire spell

Spell category: Offensive spell; the Celestial Master Order's Orthodox Unity Heavenly Gang Talisman Art

Affiliation: The Celestial Master Order of Mount Heming

Brief description: A fire-based talisman attack; a fire talisman was affixed to a sword, uniting sword and talisman as one. Talisman and sword flew together, scattering flames wherever they struck and burning jade and stone alike.

Spell weakness: Casting caused a considerable commotion. Though this gave it the imposing force of seizing the initiative with sound, it also gave those with quick reactions some advance warning, allowing them to decide whether to defend or flee.

Recorded appearance: In Chapter 3 of Volume Six, "Clouds Flew and Swords Danced, Their Might Spanning a Thousand Miles," at the request of Bao Chuxiong, Commandant of Nanhai Commandery, Celestial Master Order disciple Lin Xu demonstrated this spell for the Commandery Soldiers. Talisman and sword flew together with the force of racing thunder, blasting a fragment of a millstone into fine powder amid a thunderous rumble!
