After Being Sacrificed, I Became the World-Destroying Mystic Maiden

Reincarnation and awakening, a powerful female lead, suspense and horror, and a reimagined mythology. Everyone says I am the reincarnation of the Celestial Maiden of the Ninth Heaven. But the closer I get to the truth, the more I hope they are wrong. For three years, Ling Zhao has had the same dream: a bronze altar, a heart cut out as an offering, and people feasting from a bronze cauldron. The dream is false. But the phoenix pattern glowing in her palm is real, as are the black runes crawling up her veins. Her best friend, Chen Le, has become the living anchor of the Heaven's Eye Array. Her family retainer has waited forty-seven years just to call her “Miss.” A spirit beast is imprisoned in a ruined temple, all skin and bones. The moment it opens its mouth, it says, “You're late.” The Fate Bureau wants to capture her, the people in white robes want to use her, and the Heaven's Eye Array is draining her power. And the remnant soul in the mirror says: The seventh anchor is inside your own heart. The stronger you become, the faster the Heaven's Eye opens. Every time you use divine power, you move one step closer to destruction. “I don't believe in fate. So I won't believe that I was born to be a sacrifice.” This novel and its characters are entirely fictional. Any resemblance to actual persons or events is purely coincidental.
