Chapter 28 Ceremony
On the hillside.
"Sure enough... Count Felix's head was cut off by himself!?"
Zhong Shenxiu watched this scene with cold eyes, recalling part of the memory of this body.
That was the scene where the headless Earl used his sword to cut off his own head!
"This is also an evil ritual to continue life, and now is the final step."
Zhong Shenxiu said indifferently: "But I can't let you finish it!"
He now knew why he felt attracted to Delia. It turned out to be the head of the headless Earl!
The headless Earl's resentful spirit in his body had already begun to agitate the moment the head appeared, wanting to break through the confinement of Taoism.
Zhong Shenxiu had no doubt that the body of the resentful spirit was eager to obtain its head.
In just a few moments, the headless count might fly over and become one with the head.
And whether it is wisdom or madness that dominates the entire resentful spirit, his end will not be too good.
"It's time to solve everything. I have your memories, and I can also use your magical powers."
Although Zhong Shenxiu's body became more and more terrifying, his abilities were also increasing rapidly.
At this time, he could even feel a strange space in which Feng Xi'er was struggling to hold on.
'If I take action, I can probably release her, but this captain is of no use at this time...'
On the altar.
Delia placed the head on the other end of the infinity symbol, representing the position of the worshiper, bowed and exited the altar, and couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
The breath coming from the opposite side of the flesh and blood door already made her feel suffocated.
She was deeply aware of the horror and horror of the ancient gods, so she lowered her head and did not dare to look directly, knowing that she was not even qualified to receive the gifts from the ancient gods.
If she had to show off her strength, those squirming pieces of meat and monsters would probably be her best end.
Just as she lowered her head, she saw a thick darkness erupting from not far away, surging forward.
"What?"
Before Delia could react, she felt that her hand was empty and the black dagger had disappeared.
The black mist enveloped her and swallowed up several Westerners near the altar in an instant.
Zhong Shenxiu took one step forward and seemed to shrink to an inch, reaching the altar.
This strange ability comes from the Headless Earl.
Since the other party can use his means to throw Feng Xi'er into a void, he can naturally do it too.
"My body?"
At this time, Count Felix on the stage turned his head with difficulty and looked at this scene: "No!"
"According to our Eastern saying, my magical powers have the same origin as yours, and your method of dividing space cannot stop me!"
Zhong Shenxiu came to the altar in one step, ignoring the malice in the head's eyes, and inserted the dagger back into the head.
Click!
It fits as tightly as a key goes into a keyhole.
When the dagger fell, Count Felix's head seemed to be dead, but his blood vessels began to squirm, as if there were black worms one after another.
Zhong Shenxiu lowered his head and looked at his chest.
There, the blood seemed to have solidified, or turned into a form like lead and mercury, and no longer flowed out. It seemed that the transformation into a corpse was irreversible.
'Sealing this head again will only make it unable to control the body...'
'As for that thing inside me, instinct alone can kill me! ’
‘So… not yet! ’
Zhong Shenxiu looked at the bloody door in front of him, and suddenly pushed Count Felix's head forward, placing it together with the blood-red stone, to the position of the sacrifice.
The first rule of mystical rituals is equivalent exchange.
At this time, he even used Felix's head as a sacrifice!
This is the shortest way to solve this head that seems to be going crazy!
‘As for my problem, I can only take a gamble. ’
Zhong Shenxiu opened his mouth and showed a somewhat crazy smile.
The second law of occult science, don’t look directly at God!
He knew that although he understood the ritual, he could not face the existence behind the door.
Otherwise, it will inevitably be affected by it, and it is best to fall into the state of a schizophrenic fanatic.
However, he still has this option.
Zhong Shenxiu started the ceremony, and in an instant, he chose to release the thing in his body.
With his rudimentary Taoist skills at this time, he was unable to control the headless Earl's resentful spirit.
Whenever this headless count is released, his thinking will be in chaos.
Zhong Shenxiu has known this for a long time, so apart from accidentally releasing this thing in the small mountain village, he only slightly borrowed the power of the resentful spirit.
This time, it was the reverse use.
Almost in the blink of an eye, his body was completely corrupted and his head disappeared.
What appeared on the spot was a corpse wearing a gorgeous dress but without a head!
Headless Earl!
It stood quietly, its thinking very chaotic.
After all, the mysterious ritual chosen by the Headless Earl is to seal his consciousness in his head, leaving only instinct and madness in this body.
Even if some memories remain, there is no thinking and consciousness, otherwise Zhong Shenxiu would have been doomed long ago.
At this time, it couldn't find the 'target' for a moment and couldn't help but stagnate for a moment.
The next moment, it was attracted by the aura behind the flesh and blood door.
Boom!
The door of flesh and blood slowly opened a crack, and an inexplicable aura leaked out.
Behind the door, there is a deep invisible darkness, and there seems to be one door after another with different lights, which together form an indescribable shape.
Ordinary people, even if they just glance at it, will fall into the deepest madness, mutate into monsters, or fanatical believers.
Dark light leaked from inside the door, wrapping the sacrifice.
From there, several tentacles that seemed smooth yet full of particles, colorful yet seemingly colorless, grabbed the head and the blood-colored stone and buried it behind the door.
That great being didn't even arrive consciously.
It was just an instinct, or a reaction to natural phenomena, that caused something to be displaced and penetrated into the body of the headless count.
Some kind of terrifying change happened.
…
Zhong Shenxiu's consciousness was in chaos.
His thoughts continued to diverge, and he gradually came up with some ideas of his own.
The last crazy fight before was recalled again.
‘To completely lose control and confront God is equivalent to me driving myself crazy first, so I’m not afraid that you will drive me crazy again? ’
‘Then now, am I a success or a failure? Am I crazy or not? ’
‘But it doesn’t matter. ’
‘Even if my plan fails, there is still one last layer of protection, that funny guy from the Tianxiu system! Haha...A must-have golden finger for time travellers? I control my life myself! Even if something goes wrong, I will accept it. Anyway, after living three lives, I have already made a lot of money! ’
In a daze, he seemed to see the funny system again:
‘Achieve the achievement [even show off the system]! ’
'Earn rewards……'
The system's light suddenly became chaotic.
Zhong Shenxiu's consciousness was completely silent and fell into darkness.
