Special Forces Company: Daoist Arts Amid the Flames of War
Amid the flames of the War of Resistance Against Japan, an old Daoist from a mountain temple descends from the mountains, armed with a lifetime of extraordinary skills.
He forms a special unit that takes on only the most dangerous missions: blowing up ammunition depots, assassinating enemy commanders, and cutting off supply lines.
A talisman of yellow paper and cinnabar can summon wind and thunder or conceal their tracks. A long-lost ancient formation can trap a thousand soldiers and throw yin and yang into chaos.
The Japanese headquarters offers a huge bounty for the head of the “ghost Daoist,” yet they cannot even touch the hem of his robe.
Then, with the Special Forces Company trapped behind enemy lines and facing certain death, the old Daoist ventures alone into the grand formation of a hundred ghosts laid by an onmyoji.
As he sweeps his horsetail whisk, the ghosts wail. He smiles at his disciples and says, “Today, I pass on to you the Daoist art of protecting the nation.”
