Based on Mo Jiang's experience fighting with ghost tamers, these people are no different from ordinary people when it comes to firearms. As long as the gun is fast and accurate enough, killing a ghost tamer is no more difficult than killing an ordinary person.
Long-range sniping with super vision would be the best first-strike method. Of course, we cannot rule out the possibility that the Great Witch Sage has extremely high perception and physical qualities, and may be able to dodge the sniper shot.
But in this case, it's just a change from long-range sniping to head-on confrontation.
With the Nine Yang Divine Skill fully mastered, the Dragon Elephant Prajna Skill at level four, and the Holy Light of the Lord of Ten Thousand Armies, Mo Jiang fears no enemy in battle.
Upon hearing Mo Jiang's words, Granny Tang was taken aback. "Young man, don't say such terrifying things. If you kill someone indiscriminately, the police will come knocking on your door."
……
Zangling Village, Liuzang Bodhisattva Temple.
Zangling Village itself is not considered poor; in fact, it is considered relatively well-off compared to other villages in the surrounding area.
However, because most young people go out to study or work, and some families have moved away after becoming wealthy, the village has become much less populated.
After all, this place is really remote, and it's difficult to meet people's needs in terms of medical care and education.
There are two places where the Great Witch is often seen.
One is the village's ancestral temple, which has been passed down for decades, with the shaman serving as its temple keeper.
The other is a modern three-story building that was built later.
Granny Tang said that the Great Shaman usually stays in the temple, where the Six Burials Bodhisattva is enshrined.
The moment Mo Jiang stepped into the Six Burials Bodhisattva Temple, he heard the Great Shaman's voice, "Who?!"
He's been discovered!
In an instant, endless darkness seemed to come alive, enveloping the entire room. In that darkness, one felt drowsy, as if returning to the time before birth, falling asleep in one's mother's womb to the sound of soft humming.
Mo Jiang immediately summoned holy light in an attempt to dispel the darkness, but this time the holy light failed to illuminate the darkness.
It could only transform into a halo of light to surround him, keeping the surging darkness three meters away.
Mo Jiang squinted at the surrounding darkness; this was the first time he had ever seen a situation where even holy light could not shine.
Even in the shadows, the holy light seemed to be suppressed by the darkness.
This is not a difference in quality; in this respect, Holy Light still has the advantage. However, in terms of quantity, Holy Light is suppressed.
But his methods were not limited to holy light. The Dragon Elephant Might immediately burst forth from his body and manifested behind Mo Jiang.
The strongest on land, the strongest in water, and the combination of the two constitutes the most supreme power.
The roar of a dragon and the cry of an elephant, the power of these two formidable creatures, spread out in ripples within the darkness.
153. Fighting the Great Witch Sage
Mo Jiang intended to use sound waves to probe the environment of this dark area, but he soon discovered that the sound waves he emitted would be corroded and swallowed up by the dark environment.
At the same time, several cold lights flashed through the darkness, tearing and slicing the holy light as if it were an object.
The slash was extremely fast, and the darkness made it impossible for Mo Jiang to keep up. By the time he tried to track the direction of the slash, it had already left the range of the holy light and disappeared into the darkness.
The only thing the eye could catch was a Miao sword disappearing into the darkness.
The damaged parts of the holy light shield were gradually being restored.
The next instant, another terrifying slash came.
Just then, Mo Jiang suddenly bent backward, his upper and lower body forming a ninety-degree angle, dodging the fierce slash.
At the same time, holy light pierced through the darkness in front of him, like a sharp sword thrusting towards the direction from which the attack was coming.
Every nerve and muscle in Mo Jiang was triple-strengthened by the alchemical potion, internal energy, and holy light. In less than a second, he not only instinctively made dodge and counterattack movements, but also completed simple logical thinking.
The surrounding light was insufficient, severely limiting visual perception.
Sound travels very quickly and disappears within about five meters of a person's location.
Losing my sense of direction in the dark, it's hard to guarantee I'm walking in a straight line.
[There are also hidden attack methods inside; so far, the only one shown is the Miao sword slash.]
"You think you can use the terrain to your advantage, and that Miao sword, to defeat me?"
[Dreaming!]
The thought process is completed in an instant, and the reaction begins simultaneously.
Using his left foot as support, he transformed his right foot into a blade and kicked out a blade of light, which was like the blazing sun cutting through the sky.
Mo Jiang braced himself on the ground with both hands, and with a wide arc of his legs, he unleashed countless blade beams in all directions. Each strike dispersed some of the darkness, and after the blade beams were swallowed by the darkness, the gaps created by the dispersal were once again enveloped by darkness.
At the same time, the Miao sword completely disappeared into the darkness, and the Great Witch Sage understood that Mo Jiang wanted to force out the sword and destroy it.
Three seconds, one hundred and eight blades of light.
Such a powerful attack only managed to dispel the darkness two meters away for a few brief moments before it was obscured by darkness again.
But just these few moments are enough.
This temple, which enshrines the Six Burial Bodhisattvas, is not spacious; it is just a small temple.
Comparing the scenes he witnessed in those few moments with the images he remembered when he entered the small temple, Mo Jiang immediately realized that he was simply enveloped in darkness, rather than being transported to some other inexplicable place.
This is very important for Mojiang.
Just then, Mo Jiang suddenly threw three streams of light in three directions, which seemed to hit something and made a sound like metal clashing.
Mo Jiang threw three broken swords, which struck the Miao sword and pinned it to the wall.
After disabling the Great Witch's attack methods, Mo Jiang immediately unleashed his inner strength, and his entire body was enveloped in flames, as if the God of Fire had descended to earth.
With his internal energy pushed to its limit, he brought his thumbs together, instantly concentrating his inner strength into a single point and unleashing an invincible sword aura.
Nine Yang Divine Sword - Startling Sun Breaker!
The Nine Yang Divine Sword is material yet formless, making it more flexible and having a wider attack range than a real sword, leaving enemies defenseless. When the sword is drawn, its energy is as swift as the wind, incredibly powerful. Wherever the sword's energy reaches, it is like an invisible sword. Whether sweeping or pointing, it can injure the enemy, achieving the goal of killing without a trace by using energy to guide the sword. It can be called invincible among swords, and the absence of a sword is better than having a sword.
The two sword energies merged into one, shooting towards the depths of darkness like a blazing sun, and the surrounding temperature instantly rose by more than ten degrees.
In this darkness, Mo Jiang would have no way of finding the Great Witch Sage. Even if he caught a glimpse of him, the Great Witch Sage had legs and could move freely.
Therefore, the direction from which his [Stunning Swan Breaks the Sun] was sent was not elsewhere, but rather the statue of the Six Burial Bodhisattvas inside the temple!
The sword energy, like a blazing sun, tore through the darkness and destroyed the statue of the Six Burials Bodhisattva.
Faced with the overwhelming sword energy, even though there was a strange power around the Six Burials Bodhisattva, it was unable to resist the earth-shattering sword energy that was unleashed with the power of the Nine Yangs.
In an instant, the wooden statue of the Six Burial Bodhisattva began to explode from the inside out, and countless tiny fragments swept in all directions like bullets. Whether it was the pillars supporting the temple or the heavy offering table, they were all pierced by the rain of fragments.
"what!!!"
In the darkness, only a scream of agony from the Great Witch Sage could be heard, followed by his furious voice, "I will extract your soul and offer it to the Burial Venerable!"
The boundless darkness invaded, and at this moment, under the control of the Great Sage, it unleashed its full power.
The void, darkness, and endless chanting sounds are taken from the darkness where life sleeps in the womb at the beginning of its existence. This place is not only an alternate dimension, but also a barrier, and even a millstone used to imprison and grind down enemies.
But at that moment, a muffled groan was heard from the Great Witch, and the darkness receded like a tide.
When the light returned to their eyes, all they saw was a scene of utter devastation.
The statue of the Six Burial Bodhisattva was completely destroyed, and all the things in the temple, big and small, were covered with wooden splinters of different sizes. If you looked closely, you could see that the edges of the splinters had faint reddish light flickering.
Mo Jiang slowly walked to the right side of the Six Burials Bodhisattva statue. The Great Witch was clutching his arm, bleeding profusely from his seven orifices.
"Hey, how does my Nine Yang Internal Force feel?"
A small wooden splinter was stuck in Da Wuxian's left arm, but the damage it caused was insignificant.
The important thing is the Nine Yang Internal Force attached to the wooden spikes. It is extremely strong and yang, extremely domineering and fierce. There isn't much internal force attached to the wooden spikes, but the quality of the internal force is so high that even the body of an athlete in his prime cannot withstand it.
As for the Great Witch, he looked to be in his sixties or seventies, not to mention his weakened body from worshipping the Six Burials Bodhisattva.
While unleashing his killing move with all his might, he was interfered with by the Nine Yang internal force. Due to the backlash of the technique, he was only alive thanks to the protection of the Six Burials Bodhisattva.
Mo Jiang stepped on Da Wuxian's left arm and pressed down hard. Da Wuxian could hear the bones in his left arm cracking. He had no doubt that if he used a little more force, the arm would be broken and fractured.
While stepping on the Great Witch's left arm, he prevented the Nine Yang Internal Force from eroding the wound along the meridians.
If this is not done, the violent internal energy will dry and crack the meridians along the way, and finally burn the person directly with the blood of the Great Sage.
"I ask, you answer; if you lie or answer too slowly, I'll kill you. Where is the heartwood of the Thousand-Child Tree?"
Upon hearing Mo Jiang's purpose, Da Wuxian revealed a chilling smile. "Tree Heart? It was destroyed long ago."
The author says:
Author's note: Thank you to [SEERS] and [Haibin] for the donations.
154. Sufficient current can pry open any tightly closed mouth.
Without hesitation, the foot stomped down with force, and with a loud crack, the Great Witch's arm broke.
The intense pain turned Da Da Wu Xian's face pale, but his smile remained unchanged. "Even if you kill me, you still won't find the tree heart."
The pain of a broken arm is on a completely different level compared to the pain of practicing and making offerings to the Six Burials Bodhisattva.
Mo Jiang even suspected that this guy had a very strong resistance to physical pain.
At the same time, considering that the Great Witch's body is not strong, once the pain exceeds the threshold, he may die directly from the pain.
Forced confessions were ineffective.
Realizing this, Mo Jiang stopped harming Da Yi Ling Qi Ba Si Si Wu Xian's body, found a rope and tied Da Wu Xian to a chair, then took out a syringe from his ever-present bag.
Besides the syringe, there was another device, which was some kind of hand-cranked device.
After picking it up and examining it, Mo Jiang checked the device to make sure there were no errors, muttering to himself:
"Voltage 50-100V, power 2.2W, maximum current 22mA, AC."
However, after looking at the appearance of the Great Witch Sage, and considering the other party's age, he figured that the device in his hand was probably not that dangerous to the large wireless network.
But not wanting to waste the things he had brought, Mo Jiang held up the device in his hand and said, "This is an electric shock device, used to fix it to a certain part of your body, and then continuously use it to extract a confession."
My advice is that you start speaking properly now, otherwise this thing will make both of us look bad.
The only response to Mo Jiang was the Great Witch Sage's spittle: "My faith in the Burial Sovereign cannot be shaken in the slightest, no matter how much I am cut or chopped. Even if I die, the Burial Sovereign will choose a new Great Witch Sage, and he will come for you. He will extract your soul and burn it in a lamp for a hundred years!"
"What a terrifying punishment called 'lighting the sky lantern'! I was so scared I almost shrank back." Mo Jiang's eyelids were half-closed, and his tone was completely flat, showing no sign of being frightened. "Not yielding even at a time like this, what a tough guy. Well then, let's start our show."
With that, Mo Jiang inserted the syringe into Da Wuxian's body.
"Don't worry, it's just some kind of drug that increases nerve sensitivity. It's from the United States and it's very expensive."
He bent down and pulled down Da Wuxian's pants, tied the wires to his testicles on both sides, and then cranked the hand-cranked generator in his hand.
The human body can tolerate 36V AC voltage, but this does not mean that the human body has no feeling of electric current.
Generally speaking, 1mA alternating current can make people feel numbness in their fingers, 5mA will cause tingling, and 10mA will cause muscle spasms.
When the current reaches 20mA, breathing becomes difficult, there is a burning pain, and one cannot break free on their own; it looks as if they are being sucked in by electricity.
When the organ receiving this electric current is a man's vital organ, the pain will be magnified tenfold, a hundredfold, or even a thousandfold.
It has gone beyond the realm of pain and reached the level of torture.
Inside the Six Burials Bodhisattva Temple, the great shaman's screams filled every crevice.
But the screams only echoed inside the temple, without reaching outside.
Amidst the piercing screams, Mo Jiang's voice remained calm and even, "Professor Yang said there's no idea that electric current can't solve; enough current can pry open any tightly shut mouth. And the Russian security minister also told me that as long as you shock a man's genitals long enough, you can get any information you want."
The Great Witch Sage had a very strong faith in the Six Burials Bodhisattva. Even after increasing his nerve sensitivity and administering electric shocks for a full hour, it was only then that the Great Witch Sage's mouth was pried open.
In fact, if Da Wuxian didn't speak up soon, Mo Jiang was going to have to inject him with the "confession agent".
In Chicago, a place rife with gangs, money can buy a lot of drugs, from confession agents to all sorts of things that are illegal to inject.
Injecting a confession agent is an extremely high-risk act. Given the Great Witch's abilities, he may have some resistance to confession agents. Even if the confession agent takes effect, he may not be able to find out the location of the Thousand Tree Heart.
Perhaps the Great Witch's defenses could be broken down by repeatedly injecting the confession agent, but this method can only be performed once.
Because the human brain cannot withstand the effects of that drug, there is a very high probability that the drug's effects will burn the brain and turn the brain into an idiot.
This is a very risky gamble, and the probability of failure is quite high.
