nThe faint moonlight came through the only window in the storeroom.

nLin Sheng stood alone in the dark, chanting in a strange rhythm smoothly and naturally as if he was singing a special musical piece in an unknown language.

nThe Initiator needs to be repeated over and over again, and in the standard ritual, it needs to be repeated nine times.

nWhen Lin Sheng finished chanting, he didn’t find anything unusual, so he started to do it the second time, then the third time, and the fourth time…

nHe had practiced alone before, but nothing unusual happened. But now, as he stood in front of the circle, watching the three dark red masses gradually solidifying, he felt a vague and sleepy feeling welled up in his heart. His consciousness seemed a little confused.

n

n

nHis brain drifted into a state of half asleep and half awake, and his eyes, as the ritual required, remained fixed in the blank spaces in the middle of the circle. The blank spaces were now slowly twisting and turning.

nSoon, in the center of the plastic sheet, a basin sized whirlpool was formed.

nHe suspected he was hallucinating, but the ceremony was halfway through and could not be stopped. Lin Sheng was still chanting the strange and mysterious Initiator.

nIn the inexplicable melody, the whirlpool in the middle of the circle gradually stabilized.

nHe managed to lift the bowl in his hand and pour the mixture of the three materials into the whirlpool in the middle of the circle.

nThe great mass of thick liquid seemed to fall to the water with a splash and disappeared in the middle of the circle.

n*Shhh…*

n

n

nSuddenly a faint sound came out of the whirlpool.

nLin Sheng stared at the whirlpool as a blurred human face slowly emerging from the surface of the whirlpool.

nThe face was like being covered by cloth, getting more and more clear and protruding. It seemed to want to break free from the whirlpool, open its mouth and shout.

nAt this moment, Lin Sheng struggled with all his strength and grabbed the redwood block and threw it into the whirlpool.

nThe block hit the face.

n*Boom!!!*

nIn an instant, Lin Sheng was stunned by the sudden roar.

n

n

nUnable to support his limp body, he dropped to his knees, hands touching the greasy floor.

nVaguely, he seemed to feel a myriad of noises echoing in his ear. The voices, like hallucinations, interwove and mingled until they become whispers.

nThe soft, seductive whisper kept whispering in Lin Sheng’s ear as if telling him some evil knowledge.

nAfter a while…

nIn the moonlight, Lin Sheng shook his head vigorously. He felt cold all over, and his face was wet.

nHe wiped it away and looked at it in the moonlight.

n“Blood… ?!” Lin Sheng was startled.

n

n

nHe got up slowly and quickly examined his face.

nThere were blood clots in his ears, nostrils, mouth, and eyes.

nLin Sheng quickly peeled off the blood clots and rubbed off the residual blood.

n“So… I did it?”

nHe recalled the process, and it was so nightmarish that he could not recall what had been whispered in his ear.

nAll he knew was that he was cold. And there seemed to be some subtle change going on in his body.

nThere seemed to be a chill in the space between his chest and stomach. It was like an ice cube, releasing a constant stream of chillness into the depths of the internal organs.

nStrangely, the chill did not pierce to the bone. It was not too hard to endure.

n

n

nIn a moment, the chill was gone. It felt like it all went into his body.

n“That’s it?”

nLin Sheng stretched out his hand and looked at it. His body seemed to be the same as before. Just a little lighter. His muscles trembled as he tried to clench his fists.

n“The Sacred Blood… Burning…” Suddenly, some words came out of his mouth unexpectedly.

nDeep in the skin, it felt like something was slowly burning.

nAn inexplicable huge force seemed to be born out of nothing, spreading rapidly from Lin sheng’s heart.

nPower, an endless stream of power, gushed into Lin Sheng’s body.

nIn the moonlight, spots of blood began to appear all over his skin.

nLin Sheng covered his heart. Suddenly he tore open his collar.

nIn the middle of his bare chest, a mass of dark purple veins clearly protruded from the skin like a spider’s web crawling across his chest.

n“This!?”

nLin Sheng gnashes his teeth and reached out to touch the dark purple veins.

nIt was like a second heart growing on the surface of his skin. The icy cold veins were still pulsing.

n“Damn it! What have I done?”

nLin Sheng loosened his collar and punched the wall.

n*Bam!!!*

nThe entire storeroom was shaking as if it had been smashed by some heavy object.

nHe looked at the wall in the moonlight. A fist-sized hole was visible on the wall.

n“My strength has grown so much! ?” Lin Sheng raised his hands in disbelief and examined them carefully.

nHe knew from the fragments of Annie’s memory that the ritual was extremely evil. The stronger the spiritual will of the host, the stronger the power he would gain.

nAnd the ritual, for some reason, could only be used once.

nBut he did not expect that the ritual was successful, and he also acquired such strong power!

nLin Sheng just wanted to try it to see if the knowledge gained in the dream work in the real world.

nBut now…

n“It works!”

nHe looked at the plastic sheet on the floor. The moonlight on his face reflected his ferocious face, especially the protruding dark purple muscle between his eyebrows.

nThere was a big round hole in the middle of the plastic sheet on the ground. The blood mixture had disappeared, and the only remaining one was the celadon round bowl.

n“The redwood is gone?”

nLin Sheng squatted down and rolled up the plastic sheet.

nHe could feel that his strength and explosive power were far beyond his normal state.

nAnd not just power. His mind was calmer and clearer than usual. It felt like he would not be affected by any emotion in this state.

nWith this form in place, Lin Sheng wanted to see how long the ability will last. He did not believe that this power could last forever.

nAccording to the person who taught Annie the ritual, in the successful ritual, the spiritual will of the host would attract some unknown evil spirit.

nThe evil spirit would then exchange and transmit a special ability to the host according to the materials and sacrifices prepared by the host and part of the mental power of the host.

nAs for what abilities one would acquire, it’s random.

nAfter all, Different people summoned different evil spirits. And the ability that evil spirits were willing to transmit was not the same.
