The members of the God-Worshipping Society woke up to find themselves in an unfamiliar place. Standing before them were several people, all with unfriendly expressions. Only one of them was different from the others; his expression was peaceful, and no cultivation could be sensed from him.
However, he occupied a more dominant position among this group of strange cultivators. The black-robed man felt the restraints on his body and tried to break free, but the vines entangling him only tightened further.
The black-robed man suppressed his petty thoughts and silently assessed his surroundings. He stared at Jiang Wen, plotting in his mind that if he had a chance to escape, he would definitely take that mortal with no cultivation as a hostage. It was obvious that this mortal had an extraordinary background; otherwise, he wouldn't be respected by everyone and stand in the center.
However, before the black-robed man's idea could be realized, Jiang Wen's words shattered his fantasy.
"Since it's an interrogation, let's start with this person," Jiang Wen said, glancing at the astonished black-robed man, and stuffed a Truth Pill into his mouth. He didn't care whether the man wanted to swallow it or not, he simply pinched his chin and made him raise his face. He used his magic power to imprison the man's meridians and Qi sea, preventing him from using his magic power to expel the pill's effects.
The black-robed man stared wide-eyed at Jiang Wen, finding it hard to believe that this person with no fluctuations could possess such pure spiritual power. He suddenly felt somewhat fortunate that he hadn't broken free and tried to take him hostage; otherwise, he would probably be the first to die.
While he was lost in thought, Jiang Wen's question reached his ears: "Tell me, what is your purpose in coming to Buzhou Mountain?"
The black-robed man wanted to mock him and then declare that he would rather die than submit, but he found that his body uncontrollably spoke his thoughts. His mouth opened on its own, and he said, "For the God's Descent."
"God's Descent? What is the God's Descent? What will happen after the God's Descent?"
"The God's Descent is to allow the Heavenly Gods to descend into the world! What do you mortals know! Don't you think that everything in this world is too harsh and unfair?! Only the Gods, only the Heavenly Venerables, can save the world from suffering and allow people to live a peaceful and serene life. As long as the Gods descend, everything will be fine. Before that, necessary casualties are inevitable. But the Gods will save these innocent souls, allowing them to be reborn and enjoy wealth and glory."
The black-robed man's expression was extremely fanatical, and his words were like those of a mad believer. His eyes were wide and bulging, and the smile on his face was incredibly foolish.
"You who dare to oppose the Gods will sooner or later be punished by the Gods. You will fall into the Avici Hell and suffer endless torment! Only by converting to the Heavenly Venerable and believing in the name of the Heavenly Venerable can you obtain salvation and liberation."
The black-robed man spoke with great excitement, and then his voice became weaker and weaker. A look of pain appeared on his face, as if he had suffered a backlash. His entire face was bleeding from all seven orifices, and the skin on his face cracked. Soon after, his entire body shattered into earth-like fragments, falling from the vines onto the ground.
"This is a backlash. There should be a restriction placed in his body. Once the truth is spoken, this will be the outcome," Hongluan stepped forward to examine the situation and informed everyone of what she had learned.
Jiang Wen stared at the aftermath of the backlash, gaining a deeper understanding of these evil methods. He never thought that a person could turn into mud and shatter into powder; truly, there were countless strange techniques.
"Let's change to another one," he said, looking at the remaining black-robed men. The disciples and followers of the God-Worshipping Society who had woken up trembled upon hearing this, as the scene of the backlash was too shocking, and no one wanted to die so painfully.
However, in the current situation, they had no chance to resist. Zile waved her hand, and the vines bound another person and brought them forward.
Jiang Wen stuffed the Truth Pill into his mouth, and the man struggled in terror, eventually shouting words of refusal.
โ
However, the people present couldn't sympathize with these members of the God-Worshipping Society. Jiang Wen had experienced several disasters caused by the God-Worshipping Society. As for Hongluan, the righteous and upright girl, from the moment she saw the sea of blood, had already classified the God-Worshipping Society as a demonic and crazy sect, no different from those monsters, and believed that the only thing to do when seeing members of the God-Worshipping Society was to send them to the Yellow Springs.
"Then, I'll ask you. How many people from the God-Worshipping Society have come to Buzhou Mountain?" Jiang Wen asked gently.
"I! I don't know! I only know that Venerable Yin Yang and Venerable็ฉข Pig will be guarding here. I also heard that Venerable Heavenly Dog will also come, so three Venerables from the Thirteen Venerables will come!" The black-robed man said in a trembling voice, his eyes fixed on Jiang Wen, fearing that he would become like the former in the next moment. "I'm willing to tell you everything, please save me, I don't want to die..."
"I can save you, you only need to tell me everything you know about the God-Worshipping Society, and I will guarantee your survival," Jiang Wen said, taking out a spiritual talisman from his bosom. This talisman was inscribed with the Pure Six Harmonies Divine Incantation, which was used to resolve turbidity and transform evil, to pacify the Five Sacred Mountains, and to sweep away filthy and disgusting spirits.
Applying this talisman was enough to protect against all evil and prevent all diseases. It could be considered one of the Eight Great Divine Incantations in the Complete Collection of Talismans.
Seeing this, the man nodded repeatedly, telling everything he knew.
It turned out that the God-Worshipping Society had been plotting Buzhou Mountain for a long time, and the disasters in the three states were not their doing. However, using such disasters to cover up the movements of Buzhou Mountain was also appropriate.
As for what they were plotting in Buzhou Mountain, this person only knew that they wanted to invite the Heavenly Venerable to descend, and he didn't know anything else.
"Truly, people are different," Jiang Wen smiled in relief.
He then looked at the black-robed woman in that corner. She should have been the last to wake up. Jiang Wen had entered her dream and understood everything about her. Saving her in his memory was also due to his intolerance of such suffering, but now that they were enemies, he would not have any pity.
After all, so many years had passed, this girl should have already forgotten him.
"Do you have anything you want to say?" Jiang Wen asked, looking at the girl.
"I, can I ask you something?" the girl under the black robe asked in a trembling voice.
