Vivian and her older brother Arthur believed in the Goddess of Radiance. They were taught from childhood that worshiping a god was everything.
That was what Arthur did at this time. On one side was the god he worshiped, and on the other was the sister he’d grown up with, but he still subconsciously chose to believe in the god.
He felt that his sister must have been tempted by demons. Otherwise, how could she have fallen?
"Vivian, come back to your senses!"
"No, I'm very awake, Brother,” Vivian said indifferently, her face expressionless. "If what I obtained is the demons’ power, then I would rather fall."
"You…"
"In that case, you can keep the demons company down in Hell," the Goddess of Radiance responded coldly.
The next moment, endless brilliance descended and enveloped Vivian's entire body.
Vivian desperately used all her laws to resist. Her heart had never been filled with as much hatred as it did now. She truly hated the gods, especially the Goddess of Radiance before her.
Vivian, who once held power and authority, could no longer go back to being that pious girl who prayed constantly.
More importantly, she couldn't accept the fact that her god had not protected them in their weakest moment, yet rained down thundering wrath just because she mastered a power unrelated to the gods.
But the past Vivian's understanding of the gods was correct in one aspect—that is, ordinary people are absolutely no match for gods.
Even if the Goddess of Radiance was only a Tier 6 god, she was most certainly not someone the Tier 4 Vivian could oppose.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe moment the radiant divine power descended, all of Vivian's laws were destroyed, and even her body quickly broke down. In the blink of an eye, only a strand of consciousness was left.
"Is this… the power of gods?"
In Vivian's vision, she seemed to see herself vanishing like smoke in thin air while her older brother stared blankly at the spot she disappeared from, then broke down wailing.
Vivian suddenly felt a stab of pain in her heart, because she herself had a similar experience 40 years ago.
"Power… I want power… Enough power to rival the gods…"
Her thoughts gradually turned clear, and she remembered that she should be on a mission issued by the Greater God Dimension. Regardless of whether the brother before her was real or not, she still had one last chance.
"Give me power… If you are the devil, then please take everything from me!"
Vivian's screams slowly echoed through the space, and she felt her vision blur. The surrounding scenes all disappeared, and the world was filled with endless white.
In the paper-white space, Vivian opened her eyes wide and looked around curiously, seeing a small altar in front of her.
There was nothing else on the altar besides a crystal-clear fragment floating on it.
Vivian didn't know what it was, but a voice in her heart kept telling her: “Pick up that fragment, and you will be able to obtain everything you want.“
……
"Subject No. 29’s experiment has entered the final phase," in the laboratory, the man in a lab coat stared closely at Vivian, waiting for the final outcome to appear while reporting the situation to Red Tail, who was next to him.
Vivian was a candidate brought back by Red Tail herself. She ordered her subordinates a long time ago to notify her when Vivian's final fusion process occurs.
"We used illusions to stimulate Vivian's emotions to the extreme in order to strengthen her will to live and increase the success rate of fusing with the Nightmare Godhead,” the man continued.
Even a small fragment of a greater god’s Godhead was not something mortals were qualified to touch.
The previous 28 subjects all died when the Godhead entered their bodies because they could not withstand the terrifying influx of power, causing their bodies to explode from the overwhelming power.
"We can only rely on the subject’s willpower to endure it?" Red Tail frowned slightly.
If this was the only way to handle it, that meant the experiment itself made no progress and that the previous 28 subjects all died for nothing.
Hearing the dissatisfaction in Red Tail’s words, the man wiped his sweat and answered, "We’ve detected that as the attempts continue, the laws inside the Godhead are becoming gentler…"
"Then why not find a group of mortals to sacrifice?" Red Tail asked coldly. They spent a great deal of effort cultivating each subject, so how could they just waste them like this?
The subordinate sweated profusely. "My Lord may not know this, but ordinary mortals who have not been cultivated in the Greater God Dimension have almost no hope of success. Instead, they’ll just exhaust the Godhead’s power for nothing."
After a pause, the man hurriedly continued, "My Lord, please rest assured. As long as one subject succeeds and breaks through the Godhead’s stable structure, subsequent fusions will be much simpler."
Red Tail fell silent for a while, acquiescing to the other party's approach, and turned her attention to Vivian again.
Vivian was trying to fuse with the Godhead. She, who was at the end of her ropes, chose to entrust everything to the fragment in front of her without any hesitation.
The Godhead easily entered her body and merged with her soul. The law of nightmares had been completely erased, leaving only the purest divine power to invade and completely occupy Vivian’s body.
Vivian felt as if her body was about to explode. The overwhelming power tore her soul apart again and again, then restored it quickly thereafter.
The endless pain was almost enough to break her, but at the same time, countless laws were revealed before Vivian.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe had never seen such clear and easy-to-understand laws. Almost the instant she saw these laws, she had already entered Tier 5. Without stopping, her power quickly shot towards Tier 6.
With a greater god’s Godhead acting as the ”guide”, Vivian didn’t even need a Divine Kingdom or the power of faith to advance to a whole new level.
This was a greater god’s absolute suppression of ordinary gods. If an actual god obtained a greater god’s Godhead, they would be able to break through multiple levels in a short period of time.
After a long time passed, Vivian opened her eyes again. The Nightmare Godhead was still floating quietly in front of her.
……
"We succeeded! My Lord, we succeeded!"
The lab was filled with joy. As the person directly in charge of the Blasphemer Project, the man in the lab coat was undoubtedly the most excited one, especially since Red Tail was here in person this time.
Red Tail was also very happy, but she didn’t let it get to her head and quickly ordered, "Hurry, notify the Divine Kingdom right now. The current Vivian is at least Tier 6. None of us can stop her."
The message was transmitted very quickly. Just a minute later, they saw Vivian's body on the screen slacken up and fall onto the white ground while a figure appeared behind Red Tail.
"Between Tiers 6 and 7, not bad," Gu Nan commented with a smile.
"My Lord."
"We greet My Lord!"
Red Tail was the first to salute, and the lab staff—headed by the man in a lab coat—were all so excited that they couldn't contain themselves. This was that legendary figure!
Gu Nan waved his hand. "Send Vivian to the World of Gods. Operation Blasphemy has officially begun. The structure of the Nightmare Godhead has already collapsed, so you can prepare the next subject."
"Yes!"
