Dragon-Phoenix Sword (Chinese: 龙凤剑; Pinyin: Lóng Fèng Jiàn) a major weapon featured within the famed ancient Chinese novel Investiture of the Gods.
The Dragon-Phoenix Sword is the legendary blade wielded by King Zi Shou of Zhou. Early on within the novel, King Zhou of Shang would bestow this blade upon both the Chao Twins as the weapon to effectively enforce their king's desires. After the Chao Twins failed to wield this weapon at a proper state, they personally gave it to Huang Feihu as a gift. Thus, Huang would use this blade to supposedly put an end to the Fang Brothers. Following this point, the Dragon-Phoenix Sword would not be mentioned at any specific intervals.
Famous quotes containing the word sword:
“March indefatigably on,
And for the last effect
Still keep thy Sword erect:
Besides the force it has to fright
The Spirits of the shady Night;
The same Arts that did gain
A Pow’r must it maintain.”
—Andrew Marvell (1621–1678)
