I become a god in another world

Chapter 707: Borrowing Strength
Chapter 707
"Hahahaha." Paper Man Zhang burst into laughter.

He sat in the center of the blood net, and with this smile, all the paper figures pasted on the backs of Meng Po and the others also strangely split open with gaping mouths.

Everyone silently grinned, revealing smiles that were even uglier than crying.

Meng Po was furious, but she had no choice in the matter.

The people of Wan'an County used their supernatural powers to the fullest extent—but the more powerful these powers were when used against vengeful ghosts, the more they forced Zhao Fusheng to retreat step by step.

Kuai Manzhou invited Zhao Fusheng to walk the 'ghost path', but the ghost flowers stopped her in her tracks;
The laws of the Ghost Flower Garden are deceptive, a mixture of illusion and half-truth, pulling people into a ghostly dream almost instantly.

Having finally escaped the dream, Meng Po was already waiting at one end of the Yellow Springs Blood Pool;
Just as Zhao Fusheng was about to turn around, he was blocked by Liu Yizhen.

……

Crises and traps are everywhere.

Meanwhile, Wu Shaochun's sneak attacks, the ghost mothers of the two Fans, and Ding Datong's hanged ghosts are also interspersed among them.

In addition, she had to guard against being possessed by a ghost child.

Zhao Fusheng placed the ghost child, which Erlang Shen was holding, on his shoulder and kept watch over the surroundings.

But after one round of fighting, she realized that she could not passively resist, but should take the initiative.

If something happens to her, it will not only mean that the group from Wuqing County will suffer a complete defeat, but it will also mean that Paper Man Zhang will bring disaster to everyone in Wan'an County.

The matter was of great importance, and Zhao Fusheng's eyes flickered slightly as a plan came to mind.

"Sharing the curse?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she looked up at the paper figure Zhang.

Paper Man Zhang himself was not idle either.

He was captured by Chang Hao and trapped in a cycle of reincarnation.

However, since the law of vengeful spirits was distributed among the people in the shrine at this time, the law of reincarnation did not cause him much trouble.

A wicked glint flashed in Zhang the Paper Doll's eyes, and then ripples like water appeared in his pupils.

These ripples expanded rapidly in a circular pattern, pulling Zhao Fusheng's consciousness into another bizarre and dangerous illusion.

Zhao Fusheng first closed his eyes, but closing his eyes had no effect.

The swirling, dark patterns were imprinted into her mind and interfered with her consciousness.

Different images involuntarily surfaced in her mind: a child born in infancy, learning to walk unsteadily, struggling to make a living as an adult, eventually getting married or taking a wife, and then spending her life wandering around.

……

Zhao Fusheng was familiar with such illusions.

She was trapped in ghost dreams several times, experiencing different aspects of life. The law of Paper Doll Zhang was similar to the ghost eye of Zang Junji that trapped people. It should be because he absorbed a part of Zang Junji's power and law and made it his own.

"This great dream is enough to keep you in the nightmare."

Paper Man Zhang laughed:
"This dream is one you can't wake up from."

Zhao Fusheng didn't speak, but instead looked up at Chang Hao.

The power of hell unfolded, and her figure flashed, appearing behind Chang Hao.

"There's a ghost!" she shouted.

Chang Hao's ghostly figure didn't move, but a face appeared on the back of his head.

The ghost child's hands and feet had somehow changed direction, and Chang Hao looked at Zhao Fusheng, as if in response to her words:
"There's a ghost."

As soon as the vengeful ghost finished speaking, the laws were activated.

Chang Hao's eyes reflected Zhao Fusheng's figure, and then the ghost's pupils dilated, revealing the faces of the three ghosts.

The Tang and Gao couple, hand in hand, transformed into a pool of blood, trapping Sun Shaoyin within it. Sun Shaoyin's face flashed, and the ghostly eyes reflected Zhao Fusheng's figure.

The law of reincarnation marked Zhao Fusheng once again.

Then, from the branches of the towering ghost tree, the ghost swarm suddenly shouted in unison:

"Zhao Fusheng".

"Zhao Fusheng".

The ghostly apparition called for Zhao Fusheng's soul to be taken, and Zhao Fusheng smiled and loudly agreed.

As soon as she finished speaking, the ghost tree took her agreement as a sacrifice.

Countless shadows slithered across the ground, burrowing into her body. The dark shadows entered from beneath her feet, beginning to devour her 'life story'.

Meanwhile, she was trapped in the ghost dream of Paper Doll Zhang. When the ghost sacrifice was performed, it devoured a large amount of the life stories in these dreams, indirectly relieving Zhao Fusheng's crisis.

Her body acted as a vessel, and both forces invaded it, beginning a fierce battle to gain control over her.

In a short while, the illusory world of the vengeful ghosts that had nearly driven Zhao Fusheng's mind and consciousness to the brink of collapse was swept away by the laws of the Ghost Tree.

……

Dark green markings appeared on the face of the paper figure Zhang.

The Ghost Tree integrated the cycle of reincarnation, and by devouring the 'ghost dream' within Zhao Fusheng's sea of ​​consciousness, it backfired on the Paper Doll Zhang's body.

The pressure on Zhao Fusheng's mind suddenly eased.

The ghost tree wanted to create a shrine for her and pull her into reincarnation, but Zhao Fusheng summoned a ghost stele to suppress it.

As soon as the shadow of the monument appeared, the shrine at the top of the ghost tree turned into smoke again.

But once the connection was established, millions of shadowy figures formed a bond that trapped Zhao Fusheng between herself and the tree—she used the ghost tree as her backup plan.

When Paper Man Zhang used the power of Kuai Manzhou and others to attack her again, Zhao Fusheng had a way to advance or retreat.

Once the Yellow Springs appeared, the vengeful ghosts within could not pull her in—behind her was a large tree, and hundreds of thousands of ghostly companions formed a massive number, preventing the vengeful ghosts in the springs from dragging her away.

Even the ghost flower bushes could no longer trap her.

Before she could be pulled into the flower bushes, Zhao Fusheng put away the ghost tablet.

The ghost monument was hidden, the ghost tree shrine was erected, and her body was hoisted up, naturally separating her from the ghost flower thicket.

Even Liu Yizhen was helpless against this move.

……

Taking advantage of the Ghost Tree, Zhao Fusheng moved with ease between the Temple of All Beings and the Paper Doll Zhang.

She held a malevolent object, which transformed into a knife, a gun, a sword, and a halberd, severing the connection between the Shrine of All Beings and the paper effigy Zhang one by one.

Once the ghostly thread connecting the Temple of All Beings and the Paper Doll Zhang was severed, the paper dolls scattered in all directions, and the Ghost Tree attempted to take over the Temple of All Beings.

A ghost shrine began to be built at the top of the tree, and phantoms of Meng Po and others appeared in it.

Zhao Fusheng remained calm and unhurried, and once again invoked the Human Skin Ghost Mother Law.

The ghost skins draped over the people detached themselves, and behind each of these skins was a paper figure, as red as blood.

These paper figures all have their arms outstretched as if holding hands, and the moment they detach from the human body, they open their mouths and let out a strange "hehe" laugh.

As soon as the laughter rang out, Zhao Fusheng summoned the vengeful ghost that had been giving before taking, and applied the law to the shrine.

The principle of giving before taking, a principle of fierce ghosts, came into play. At this critical moment of life and death, everyone's luck reached its peak: the ghostly figure of the Chang family in Wuqing County rushed to the foot of the shrine, and in the instant the human skin was detached, the ghostly figure in the shade of the tree pierced through the detached human skin along with the blood-red paper figure.

At this very moment, the ghost shrines on all sides of the ghost tree were completed, and the human skin, which was being held by the shadows, along with the paper figures, sat in the ghost shrines.

The paper figure is equivalent to Zhang the Paper Figure's clone. When the paper figure is captured by the ghost tree, it means that Zhang the Paper Figure is also bound by the ghost tree.

He had been plotting for a long time to kill Zhao Fusheng, but Zhao Fusheng was slippery and not only failed to catch him, but also outmaneuvered him, escaping at the last moment and trapping him in the ghost tree.

Paper Man Zhang was unwilling to sit and wait for his death.

Once he was trapped, he immediately tried to escape.

But once everyone had grasped the divine power, how could they possibly let such an opportunity slip by?
"The Six Paths of Reincarnation will pull the paper figure Zhang into them!"

Zhao Fusheng shouted sternly. The crowd, who had long hated Zhang the Paper Doll, cooperated with him upon hearing this.

The shadow of the ghost tree knows nothing of hatred between people; it only knows how to capture its 'prey' and fulfill its own law—to leave the paper figure in the cycle of reincarnation.

Kuai Manzhou's eyes were bloodshot as he drew a ghostly path.

Meng Po set up the boiler.

The group set up their formations to guard the six directions of reincarnation for Zhao Fusheng.

The moment everyone stood up, the ghost tree also divided into six directions.

The laws of Paper Doll Zhang were divided and then introduced into the Cycle of Reincarnation—Zhao Fusheng wanted to use the power of the Cycle of Reincarnation to deplete the power of Paper Doll Zhang.

"Cunning humans! Despicable humans!"

The paper figure Zhang Fa was enraged when it was divided.

A dozen or so paper-figure ghost shrines swayed on the treetops, and the afterimages of the paper figures entered the River of Reincarnation, entering one of the six realms respectively: reincarnating as a 'human' and inheriting the life story of another unknown 'human' from Wuqing County; or entering the realm of demons and gods, transforming into gods and demons.

They may cultivate themselves into ghosts and gods, and be worshipped by the "ghost envoys" of Wuqing County, or they may fall into the evil ghost realm, never to return.

……

The more times the paper figure reincarnates, the weaker it becomes.

His connection with the Ghost Tree was deepening, and if it continued, he would likely never be able to sever ties with it again.

But his paper figures could not escape the cycle of reincarnation.

As the paper figures try to escape the pool of blood and reincarnation, the vengeful spirits within the pool will unwillingly pull them back.

Moreover, the Ghost Tree has gathered the memories and knowledge of everyone in Wuqing County, and has already integrated them into a major law.

When the past of these 'people' was poured into the minds of the paper figures, these 'paper figures' made of human skin also developed a trace of cause and effect that should not belong to them.

Their faces were no longer stiff and indifferent; they began to show hesitation and pain.

These feelings of pain, numbness, and timidity indirectly affected the paper figure Zhang, causing his expression to change rapidly.

He realized this and became extremely angry.

"With the flame of the ghost lantern, burn away all impurities!"

The paper figure Zhang shouted loudly.

As he spoke, a burst of fire suddenly ignited within his body.

The flames emitted a foul stench, attracting a large number of ghostly figures to turn their heads.

The ghost tree trembled violently.

The tree's shade turned into a shadow and rotated towards the paper figure Zhang. Then, he opened his mouth and inhaled all the dark shadows and malevolent energy into his stomach.

As soon as it inhaled the evil energy, the paper figure Zhang's body rapidly expanded, instantly transforming into an enormous human-shaped lantern.

As soon as the lantern appeared, the paper figure Zhang opened its mouth again: 'Pfft!'

He exhaled a large breath, which was mixed with pale ghost fire, forming an extremely powerful sea of ​​fire that swept towards the ghost tree.

Instantly, the canopy of the ghost tree was ignited.

Countless ghostly accomplices lost their consciousness, turning into black ash and falling into the cycle of reincarnation.

The laws of the Six Paths were disrupted.

The figure of Paper Man Zhang soared into the sky.

This person is quite decisive.

Realizing that Zhao Fusheng was difficult to deal with and that he had learned to use Zhao's strength against him, he actually planned to leave this mess behind and run away, just like he always had.

The problem in Wuqing County is not easy to solve.

If he hadn't shown up, it wouldn't have been easy for Zhao Fusheng to deal with the ghost tree.

Unfortunately, he lost his composure and appeared in this chaotic situation, which gave Zhao Fusheng an opportunity to take advantage of him. Now he has been marked by the Ghost Tree and is being attacked by Zhao Fusheng using the tree's laws, while Zhao Fusheng is also using him to attack the Ghost Tree.

If this continues, both sides will be trapped here and die. Paper Man Zhang will face two possible outcomes: either join forces with Zhao Fusheng to eliminate the ghostly calamity, or let the ghost tree go mad and fight Zhao Fusheng to the death.

But the Ghost Tree has no reason; it attacks whichever side is stronger.

If he gained the upper hand, Ghost Tree would beat him; if Zhao Fusheng became too strong, Ghost Tree would mark her again.

When will this end?
With this in mind, Paper Man Zhang decided to take the opportunity to leave first.

If he leaves, Zhao Fusheng will have to face the Ghost Tree alone. Wouldn't it be much easier if she fought Changqing County's Ghost Calamity to a draw first, and then he stepped in to clean up the mess? Why fight to the death at this time?

He had thought it through, but Zhao Fusheng wouldn't let him leave at that moment.

"We cannot allow the paper figure Zhang to escape."

Zhao Fusheng sternly ordered:
"We must keep him here no matter what."

She thought of Zhang Shili, the paper doll, and said:
"At the very least, we should make sure he is completely marked by the Ghost Tree, thus dispersing the power of Elder Chang's laws."

Everyone responded in unison.

The paper figure Zhang was unwilling to surrender.

He spewed flames that scorched the ghost tree, and his body was covered with ghost spots again, with eyeballs appearing one by one.

Wherever the demon's eye shines, all the demons who witness it are marked by him.

The same red spots appeared on the bodies of the ghost accomplices, and the paper figure Zhang's body silently melted away at that moment.

His body split into the power of his eyes, which were hidden among the hundreds of thousands of ghost followers in Wuqing County. After only a moment, these hidden 'human skins' scattered in all directions like butterflies fluttering their wings.

Zhao Fusheng sneered.

She wasn't afraid that Paper Doll Zhang would display extraordinary laws; on the contrary, she was more afraid that he would stop using the power of the vengeful ghost.

Upon seeing that the paper figure Zhang was about to escape, she immediately turned the Ghost and God List and summoned the Yellow Springs Opera Troupe again.

A ghost opera troupe sets up a stage, and a ghostly actress begins her performance.

The moment the Yellow Springs Opera Troupe appeared, the laws were activated.

All the human skin fragments floating in mid-air paused, and the next moment, as if lured by the ghost opera troupe, these human skin fragments slowly flew towards the direction of the opera troupe.

"Cause and effect will always come back to haunt you."

Zhao Fusheng said.

Years ago, Zhang the Paper Doll killed the opera troupe for his own selfish reasons, causing their vengeful spirits to revive. However, he never expected that one day the opera troupe's own rules would keep him here.

"..."

Paper Man Zhang also wanted to curse.

The rules of the opera troupe couldn't kill him, but that brief moment of respite was enough for Ghost Tree to react.

The shadows of serpentine vines swept in from all directions, sticking to the paper figure's body wherever they went, pulling it back into the cycle of reincarnation.

After several rounds, even though Paper Man Zhang possessed supernatural powers, he had also established a very deep bond and relationship with the Ghost Tree, and was bound within the cycle of reincarnation.

Zhao Fusheng breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, everyone is in the same boat. She and the paper figure Zhang are each tied to the ghost tree. Before this ghostly calamity is resolved, no one can escape.

The paper figure Zhang Yi was intercepted, and he was furious.

"If you don't let me leave, I'll kill you all first."

"What arrogance." Fan Bisi snorted coldly, but on the surface he didn't care. In his heart he was very vigilant. The paper puppet Zhang Zhiqiang had already made everyone feel uneasy. They had been trapped without anyone noticing. If it weren't for Zhao Fusheng's rescue, they would have become puppets in his hands long ago.

He hesitated for a moment, then summoned the phantom of the Demon Mother to appear in the world.

A layer of bloody light enveloped him and Fan Wujiu, who stood inside the shrine, each holding a bloody umbilical cord.
