Chapter 127: God's Descent Ceremony
"Ji Ling, why are you in such a hurry? Where are you going?"
I looked back and saw An Xiaowei walking slowly from the end of the corridor with a slight smile on her lips.
Not to be outdone, I chuckled and replied, "Hey, you're asking this without even knowing the answer?"
An Xiaowei didn't say much, but Weiwei raised her eyebrows and snapped her fingers.
In an instant, countless believers poured in from different doorways and corridors.
This familiar scene...
However, I have made some preparations these days and immediately lifted the suppression of the mental pollution, but there is still some pollution running around in my body.
This is the only way for me to contact the outside world. As long as I create strong abnormal fluctuations in this place, it will definitely attract the attention of the "Eye of Perseverance" in this jurisdiction.
Staring at the huge crowd in front of me, I released a burst of fear projection. Due to the practice during this period, the upper limit of my mental strength has increased a bit. Although the range of the fear projection I released this time is not large, the power is greater than before.
Suddenly, most of the believers had different reactions. Some of those with lower evolution times even showed signs of losing control, but a small number of believers showed more fanatical expressions.
"She is indeed the Holy Son!"
An Xiaowei was no exception. She was slightly stunned, looking at the void with a pious expression, but she quickly recovered and looked at me with some surprise. Then, she snorted coldly and said, "I underestimated you."
As she spoke, An Xiaowei gently raised her hand: "Catch her."
Following An Xiaowei's order, those believers who still had the ability to fight came again.
I used fear projection again, and a small part of me lost control again.
Although I can project fear with even higher intensity and make everyone here lose control, the price I need to pay is also not small.
This is not the best time to use soul manipulation. From my observations over the past few days, I have found that An Xiaowei is a high-ranking member of the Apocalypse Sect, but not the decision-maker.
There is another decision-maker hiding in the dark who has not appeared.
If the decision maker is also in this church, then it will be meaningless even if I control An Xiaowei's soul.
At the moment, I don't have the mental strength to suppress the pollution. To be on the safe side, I'd better choose a more cautious method.
Anyway, all I have to do is let my mental power overflow to delay time.
And although there were a large number of believers, the few who lost control on the spot were enough to make the scene very chaotic.
And obviously, they didn't expect this from me. When I fought against the replica before, I didn't use Fear Projection too much.
Out-of-control believers will attack anyone indiscriminately. I originally thought that they would spend some energy to deal with these out-of-control teammates, but An Xiaowei just frowned, and several tentacles grew out of her body, directly piercing those out-of-control believers.
Damn! I really underestimated her level of madness. She even killed her own teammates.
I didn't care about anything else and turned around and rushed towards the baptism room.
At the same time, he was calculating rapidly in his mind.
Since there is no way to create chaos, we can only activate the second plan.
I nimbly dodged the attacks of several believers and approached the baptismal room directly.
A slight air current brushed against the skin.
This is it! The closest place to the mountain exit in the entire church.
Without hesitation, I directly distorted the space above and forcibly destroyed the church roof!
Space distortion has no negative effects, but can only be used once within a short period of time.
The reason why I haven't used it just now is that I don't want to waste this skill on those believers.
After all, the church is inside the mountain. Even if I kill all the believers, it is not certain that anyone outside will notice anything. But as long as I destroy the church, someone outside will definitely be able to hear anything.
As the power was activated, the roof of the church began to twist and crack, and countless stone slabs collapsed, causing a huge noise.
Some believers were unable to dodge and were directly crushed under the stone slabs.
I dodged the landslides and other believers, keeping some distance from them.
What a great opportunity! All I have to do is get out of here.
I stared at the hole in the roof and jumped with all my might.
However, before I could feel happy, I felt a strong pressure, as if there was some unknown existence outside the church staring at me.
Just in this moment of distraction, a tentacle pulled me down directly, and I subconsciously swung my knife to cut it.
However, under that strong pressure, I was shocked to find that my hand holding the knife was actually shaking slightly.
Under the intense pressure, he cut off a tentacle, but more tentacles attacked him, and at the same time, the believers began to chant with their heads down.
As the chanting continued, my head started to ache and my body felt like it had been drained of all its strength.
The tentacles wrapped around me tightly again, I couldn't move, and the Miao Dao in my hand fell to the ground.
hateful……
"Do you think you can run away?" An Xiaowei couldn't hide the anger between her brows. If it weren't for the fact that she still had to use my body as a vessel for God's descent, I even suspected that she wanted to crush me right now.
There was a sudden pain in my chest, as if the previous wound had opened.
"Don't think you can delay time by making some noise or injuring yourself. The ritual must be carried out today!"
As she spoke, she murmured something in a language I couldn't understand. This ancient voice, combined with the chanting of other believers, actually merged into a hymn with a very sacred melody.
Listening to this inexplicably sacred voice, before I could mobilize my mental strength to resist, my consciousness gradually became blurred.
…
A bucket of cold water woke me up.
When I woke up again, I was tied to the altar.
I figured out my situation almost immediately.
Still got arrested...
Although I was a little disappointed that my plan had failed, I was not too panicked.
At this time, the more panicked you are, the more dangerous it is.
I tried to move, but I don't know what they did, but none of my limbs could move at all, only my head could move.
I turned my head slightly to look to the side and saw that there were already quite a few believers below the altar.
Next to the altar was the broken statue.
There are several small round platforms around the altar, with different things placed on them, and there seem to be some symbols engraved on the round platforms.
Just from the little bit of the exposed corners of the symbols, I guessed that those symbols should be planetary symbols.
The believers were silent, as if waiting for something.
It seems that the ceremony hasn't started yet, so maybe there's something else I can do, I thought quickly in my mind.
I can't move now, and escaping by force is definitely not an option.
But other skills can still be used.
As long as the altar is destroyed, the descent of God will fail again. Let's see what other options they have then.
Thinking of this, I concentrated my mind and directly released a high-intensity projection of fear.
Surprisingly, I couldn't release it.
What the hell?
I tried again several times, but failed every time.
All my skills are useless.
Until now, I finally panicked.
And at this moment, the first bell rang.
Without exception, the faces of the believers below were filled with joy.
A few more bells rang.
“Dang—dang—dang—”
As the bells ended, the candles in the entire church suddenly lit up on their own, illuminating the entire space like daylight.
"The time has come, the ceremony begins!"
Following the priest's announcement, the choir began to sing.
Everyone bowed their heads and began to pray.
Familiar hymns filled the church.
"With the flesh and blood of the Holy Son, inheriting the soul of the God—"
"He will awaken, He will come—"
"When the heretics are buried, the mountain of corpses will become heaven—"
The long-lost mumbling once again invaded the ocean of my consciousness.
And this time it was more intense than any previous one.
My mental strength could no longer suppress the pollution in my body, and I felt as if something was about to break out of my body on my sides and back.
A will that was completely not my own forcibly occupied my mind.
Even my body is becoming less and less like my own.
Don't--
This can’t happen…
How could I allow something like this to take over my body...
We need to think of a way...
In the midst of endless pain, an idea suddenly occurred to me.
A bold and crazy idea came to my mind.
Last time I got a bit of the power of the evil god, so this time, can I do the same?
Without thinking too much, I simply stopped resisting and let those external forces pour in.
In an instant, the intensity of the pain increased exponentially, and it felt like every inch of skin and every cell in the body was about to fall apart.
The hymn continued, and the power that did not belong to him continued to pour in.
I could feel my eyes becoming bloodshot and red liquid dripping down my cheeks.
In fact, warm liquid was constantly oozing out of not only my cheeks, but also my mouth, nose, ears, and even my pores.
Along with it came a smell of blood.
In the endless chaos, I vaguely heard An Xiaowei's voice:
"The container seems to be unable to hold on any longer. Should we continue the divine descent?"
"continue."
A cold voice responded to her.
Is it... the real decision maker who has been hiding in the dark?
Why does it feel like... this voice sounds familiar...
But at this moment I can no longer think deeply.
Crazy mumbling drowned out everything.
And this time, I finally heard all these whispers clearly...
"Want to live? Accept me... Everyone can live..."
"Zhou Tian is approaching..."
"Child...you will not perish just like this...you will be the next Wu..."
And in the midst of this chaos, I couldn't help but ask questions.
"Who are you?"
"My name is Gali..."
Gali?
This was the last name I heard before my consciousness faded into chaos.
…
In the dark ocean, it seemed like centuries had passed...
Until stars appeared around, like the vast universe, or the DNA structure inside the human body.
I can't feel my own existence. I feel like a consciousness that appeared here inexplicably, but without its own carrier.
To be precise, this scene is not what I see with my eyes. It is as if I knew it by nature that these things have existed here from the beginning, without beginning or end, and neither born nor destroyed.
And I am one of them.
But...who am I?
Amidst the empty thoughts, a question emerged.
I don’t know the answer, but I can’t help but want to get to the bottom of it.
Am I a real thing? Or am I something else?
I thought about it for a long time, so long that time seemed to cease to exist, but I still hadn't figured out the problem.
But I am unwilling to give up like this, I always feel that there is something I must remember.
I wander aimlessly in this vast ocean of stars, without any entity, and only this trace of consciousness that I call "I" remains.
After wandering here for a long time, I finally didn't want to trace who I was anymore.
Anyway, I don’t know what I am. I have probably been here since the beginning and will always be here.
Until one day, sound suddenly appeared in the silent world.
I don't know where this sound comes from, I just know that I should call it sound and I can feel it.
The funny thing is that I don’t even have a physical body, but I have these strange thoughts and everything seems so natural.
I listened carefully to the sound that came from nowhere. It was subtle, with orderly lengths. It seemed to be random, but in fact it was a rigorous combination.
As I listened to these long and short sounds, several letters appeared in my consciousness.
"JI LING"
What does this mean? I was a little confused, but subconsciously, the words "Ji Ling" emerged in my mind.
So familiar...
What is this?
Although I couldn't figure it out, these two words were like an anchor, taking root in my heart. Gradually, I could remember more and more things.
There is a cold sister who always wears a high ponytail, a person who talks in an annoying way, a cute blonde girl, a tall and very cheerful person, and many more.
Most importantly, there was a young man and woman.
They smiled at me gently in the ocean of my consciousness, making me want to get closer.
But when I was about to touch those two people, they dissipated into tiny stars.
Then, those light spots combined into a zigzag continuous pattern.
It looks like auspicious clouds and also like lightning.
When I saw the pattern, I was suddenly startled, and then everything exploded at this moment.
“It hasn’t dissipated yet…”
A low voice sounded from this dark time, as if talking to itself, but also as if talking to me.
"Give it back to me." I said lightly, chatting with the voice as if I were chatting casually.
"What?" The voice seemed a little confused.
"I said, give me back my body."
The voice was silent for a few seconds, and then laughed softly as if it had heard something very funny.
"What a fun little thing."
Immediately afterwards, a stronger pressure came from all directions, almost tearing my remaining consciousness apart.
But now I have no carrier, and I don’t even know where I am.
Those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes. I tried my best to fight against the pressure.
This process was very difficult, but I actually felt more from it.
