Weird Cultivation, I have a five-organ temple

Chapter 80: The Mountain Opener (Please collect and read)
"Is this for me?" Shang Lu was a little surprised.

He felt a mysterious power from this ferocious mask.

Obviously, this is not an ordinary mask worn when performing Nuo opera in the countryside, but a real Nuo mask with supernatural powers.

"It's just for you."

The young witch nodded and said, "As a witch, I should have stayed to eliminate the evil and protect the peace of this place.

But demons and ghosts have gathered in Yunhua Mountain, and the situation there is even more dangerous and weird. I have to go there quickly to see what happened in the mountain and whether my senior brother is dead or alive.

I can only ask you to protect the people in this city.

They are evil, cunning and treacherous, and different from ordinary bandits. You must be careful at all times and not be careless!
If you encounter a demon that you cannot defeat, you can put on this Nuo mask and borrow the power of the mountain-splitting general to help you slay the demon and exorcise the evil spirits!"

So that's how it was. Shang Lu understood and bowed solemnly: "On behalf of the people in the city, I thank the witch officer!"

Then he asked, "I just don't know how to use this Nuo mask? I have never learned any magic, can I use it?"

"It is precisely because I know you don't know how to cast spells that I gave you this Nuo mask."

The young witch officer told Shanglu:

“This is not a formal Nuo mask, and the divine power it can borrow is limited, but the method of using it is relatively simple.

There is no need for complicated rituals or sacrifices day and night. All you need to do is put it on and bite the tip of your tongue, feed the noodles with blood, and silently recite the name of the god of the mountain pioneer, and you will be able to borrow strength."

It turns out that this Nuo mask is called Kaishan Mangjiang?
Shang Lu carefully wrote down the name and the method of using this Nuo mask.

The young witch officer continued to introduce: "The magical power of the Mountain Opener is great strength, which can break all laws with force. It is suitable for warriors like you who have not learned any magic.

There is just one thing you have to remember, this Nuo mask is disposable, once used, it will spontaneously combust into ashes.

You have never learned the art of asking gods for help, and you probably have never worshipped a great warrior before. Therefore, to borrow his power, you have to offer a sacrifice of your own blood and energy.

Therefore, after using this Nuo mask, all the blood and energy in your body will be drained away in an instant.

When the divine power is there, you won't feel anything. Once the divine power is taken away, you will immediately fall into a weak state.

In addition, your internal organs and meridians will be impacted by the divine power and damaged in the process of borrowing divine power.

Don't worry, this kind of damage won't be too serious, and it won't cause you to lose all your cultivation again, but it will still take some time to recuperate before you can recover.

Therefore, do not use this Nuo mask lightly unless it is absolutely necessary!"

The young witch officer spoke the last sentence with particular seriousness.

Shang Lu also understood. He didn't know how powerful the Nuo mask given to him by the young witch was, but the negative effects were indeed significant.

It can only be used as a last trump card when fighting to the death.

Even so, Shang Lu was still very grateful to the young witch officer.

After all, this gave him a powerful killer move.

If you really encounter a powerful monster or ghost, maybe you can rely on this Nuo mask to save your life and kill the ghost!

"No need to thank me, just protect the people in the city."

After leaving these words, the young witch officer wiped his face with his hand, and instantly a Nuo mask with a green face and fangs appeared.

Wisps of green air flowed out from the Nuo mask and wrapped around the waist and feet of the young witch officer, giving people the feeling that he was flying in the clouds.

The young wizard seemed very anxious. Shang Lu originally wanted to ask him how to deal with evil spirits and ghosts, as well as the magic and sorcery they cast.

Before he could even open his mouth, the young witch turned around and flew towards Yunhua Mountain. With the help of the Nuo mask, the young witch moved extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, he was hundreds of meters away, as if he could shrink the earth into an inch and cover a thousand meters with one step.

There were pedestrians and horses on the official road outside the city, but they just felt a gust of wind blowing past them and did not see the witch official speeding past at all.

Even if I wanted to be surprised or scared, I didn't have the chance.

Seeing that the young wizard ran away in an instant with no intention of coming back, Shang Lu could only swallow the question that was on the tip of his tongue.

After carefully collecting the Nuo mask of the mountain-opening general, Shang Lu turned and went to the next city gate to continue looking for the witch.

After searching two city gates, Shang Lu still couldn't find anyone.

Finally, he learned the whereabouts from a checkpoint officer and caught up with the witch at the west gate who had just set up the formation and was about to leave.

"Captain Shang, what do you want from me?"

The white-haired witch stopped and turned to look at Shang Lu after hearing his shout.

"I have met the witch."

Shang Lu walked quickly to the witch, bowed and greeted him first, thanked him for his hard work, and then explained his purpose.

"I'm sorry to ask the witch how to break the evil spells.
Last night, I led people to hunt down evil spirits in the city, and many of my brothers were harmed by magic..."

After hearing Shang Lu's words, the witch shook his head.

"You want to break the spell? Difficult!"

She motioned Shanglu to come with her, and said as they walked:

"Different spells have different ways of breaking them. You can't learn them in just a few words. Just like the skills you practice, how can they become powerful in just one or two days?"

Shang Lu nodded. He also knew that it was not easy to crack the spell.

Seeing that there was no possibility of achieving quick results, he had to settle for the next best thing.

"Is there any way? Even if we can't completely crack the spell, it would be good if we can reduce some of the effects."

Wu Zhu did give some suggestions:
“In the past two days, those who have been causing trouble in the county are mostly demons and evil sorcerers. You can prepare some black dog blood and rooster blood. These are extremely yang substances and can overcome evil magic.

In fact, in the armory of every county government, there are instruments to restrain evil spirits and ghosts. You can take a good look at them when you go back, maybe some of them can come in handy.

If you ask me, you should make use of your own advantages. Don't think about breaking the evil magic, but find a way to get rid of the people who cast the evil magic!

When you encounter a demon with similar strength to yours, you can rush in and fight, or you can use a bow and crossbow to shoot from a distance. You must use force to defeat the evil. As long as you kill the evil, the magic will disappear!

Most of these evil spirits and ghosts do not follow the right path. Although they have mastered some strange techniques, they have not trained themselves enough.

Many even consume their own blood, flesh and spirit to gain strength. Once they get close, their advantages will be greatly reduced..."

Shang Lu nodded repeatedly.

In his mind, he compared what happened last night with the witch's advice at the moment and felt that it was indeed the case.

No matter whether it is the rat demon or the corpse driver, their magic skills are very evil, but they are not as good as them in close combat.

Not even as good as shadow puppets and paper figures.

Suddenly, Shang Lu thought of the Nuo mask given to him by the young witch officer.

That Nuo mask is a sacrifice of blood and energy in exchange for power.

According to the witch, this doesn't seem to be the right way?
