Nightmare Light

Chapter 148 Gift from God

The paper girl's antics created a strange and awkward atmosphere at the scene.

A few seconds later, Ji Shuying suddenly became agitated and struggled violently.

But these paper strips summoned by the Paper Girl are extraordinary creations after all, how could they be broken so easily?

In just a few seconds, many glaring red marks were left on Ji Shuying's wrists by the paper tape.

"Ah! Let me go! Let me go!" The girl was emotionally excited and struggled violently.

She suddenly looked furious, lowered her head and bit the paper strips with her teeth. Like a vicious wolf cub, she shook her head left and right, tearing the paper strips madly.

Snapped!
There was a crisp sound.

She bit off the paper strips in one bite, and her hands swung up due to inertia.

With this huge swinging movement, the azure crystal bracelet on her wrist was about to break. The azure crystal beads emitted a faint light blue fluorescence in the room, and then scattered all over the floor with a crackling sound.

The girl seemed to be completely unprepared for this accident. She was stunned for a moment as she looked at the crystal beads scattered on the ground.

At the moment she was stunned, something strange happened in the sealed room!

Buzz! Ding!
The two voices appeared almost simultaneously, and the entire sealed room trembled instantly.

Each of the four stone pillars in the room emitted two rays of light, one of which fell on Ji Shuying, while the other shone into the pool.

In the pool, the mercury began to boil.

As the water shadow rolled, Ji Shuying's body began to emit a faint light. At this time, the shadow behind her became brighter and gradually became dazzling.

When the shadow was at its brightest, its brightness was even close to Lin Wang's!
"Ah!" The girl screamed in pain, "Dad! What happened to me?"

"Shu Ying...you are resonating with the gift from God! Are you the chosen one? So you are the one chosen by God!"

Ji Xuance laughed heartily, his snake-like head and face swirling rapidly in the air. "It's God's will! God's will! My daughter is the one chosen by the gods!"

His expression then changed, and he looked at the blue crystal beads: "That bracelet?... So that's what it is, bitch!"

Ji Xuance roared, broke away from Lin Wang, and shouted at his daughter, "Good girl! What are you waiting for? Jump in!"

"Jump in! Accept the gift from God! Become God's spokesperson in the secular world and enjoy supreme glory!"

"Let everyone! Let everyone in the entire Chu Federation! All kneel down! Prostrate themselves at your feet!"

"You will enjoy a supreme coronation! Under the gaze of the masses, you will become the first empress of the new dynasty! You will bring Lushan back to its peak of glory!"

Ji Xuance looked excited and crazy, dancing with his hands and feet, his long and narrow neck circling in the air.

"Father... Can I?" The girl hesitated and timidly asked, "How could the gods choose me?"

"Stupid...silly child!" Ji Xuance shouted, "No need to guess at the gods' intentions! Just accept it!"

The girl understood what her father meant, hesitated for a moment, and walked towards the pool step by step. As she walked, she took off her clothes. Finally, she walked into the mercury pool naked.

Mercury began to spread towards her.

"Ah!" The girl frowned and cried out in pain again.

Lin Wang took a step forward, instinctively wanting to stop all this.

But at this moment, Ji Xuance's head suddenly swam in front of him and stared at him fiercely: "What are you going to do? Are you going to stop Lushan people from having this golden opportunity?"

Lin Wang was stunned and subconsciously prepared to take action, but then he changed his mind and felt that something was wrong - since the divine power in this pool came from a righteous god, then what right did he have to stop it?

Whether it is a federation or a dynasty, it is essentially a change within civilization.

Since it’s not a divine disaster...what does it have to do with me?

During this moment of hesitation, the girl was completely enveloped by mercury.

In the sealed room, an unprecedented huge aura began to vibrate.

The mercury, in the midst of this immense aura, squirmed and twisted. Some of the mercury-colored liquid flowed through the girl's body, piercing through her mouth, nose, ears, eyes... even every pore. Fresh blood gushed out of her body.

She soon became a bloody person.

Blood flowed out, mercury squeezed in, the girl screamed in pain, and her body became brighter and brighter.

"Daddy, Daddy! It hurts!"

"It hurts! Daddy! Help me! Help me!"

Ji Xuance walked to the front of the pool in a winding manner and stared at his daughter.

"Good boy, hold on... hold on a little longer! You're almost there!"

"Dad has read the ancient texts and remembers it clearly! Once the blood exchange ceremony begins, as much of this mercury-colored...divine blood as possible must be transferred into the body to replace the mortal blood!"

"The more thorough your change, the greater your achievement!"

"It is said that if you can replace all the divine blood in your body, your future strength will surpass even the most powerful archbishop! You can be called a god on earth!"

"Hold on, dear boy, hold on a little longer!"

The cries of pain lasted for about seven or eight minutes!

The alternation of mercury and human blood lasted about the same amount of time.

By the time the ceremony was completely over, less than 30% of the mercury remained in the pool in the middle.

The rest all turned into a shocking bloody red.

The girl fell into the pool, gasping weakly.

"Father... I, I did it?"

"My dear child, what do you feel?" Ji Xuance opened his eyes wide, his voice trembling and his tone excited.

"I..." The girl's voice was a little confused, but the next second, her eyes gradually widened, revealing a look of surprise, "Power... Very strong power! I feel it."

Then, she changed the subject: "No, it's not just power... it's knowledge too! A lot of knowledge! Dad, I understand why those emperors in history were so... ah!"

She covered her head and cried out in pain: "Too much knowledge! My head hurts!"

"Child, don't worry about that knowledge! Tell me, how strong is that power!"

"That power..." The girl raised her head and tried to raise her hand, wanting to use that power.

At this moment, her face suddenly changed, her eyes were filled with horror, and she looked towards the side of the pool.

At some point, the snake-tooth knife, as if it had a mind of its own, swam out from the pile of clothes by the pool and swam towards the girl.

Now, it was less than two inches away from her.

"Dad! That knife! That knife is coming towards me!"

Her voice gradually became pleading in fear: "Dad! Please control that knife! Only you can control it!"

At this time, her eyes fell on Ji Xuance's body still on the shore.

The short body held a snake-tooth knife tightly, and maintained a seal posture with his hands.

The other knife had already swam in front of her, winding like a snake and swimming towards her chest.

Ji Xuance's head slowly wrapped around his daughter's body, strangling her tightly.

"Bear with it, kid, it won't hurt."

His voice was gentle but firm.

"I...will posthumously confer the title upon you."
