The Old Gods

Chapter 1065 Blade's Edge, Burning Heart

Jiang Ruyi decisively abandoned the use of the Divine Weapon Domain and rapidly retreated.

She was somewhat disappointed that the top-tier divine weapon, the Cool Night Sword, had lost its effectiveness so quickly.

Fortunately, this sword helped the Northwest and Northeast war zones kill two Jade Venerables in their true forms, causing them great losses and thus making a great contribution!

At least while Lu Ran was away, the situation at the ignition point was somewhat stabilized.

"Stop!" The spear appeared suddenly in front of the enormous jade statue, its tip stirring up a small vortex as it thrust forward fiercely.

The enormous jade vessel suddenly tilted its head and grabbed the spear shaft with one hand.

You are not only a valiant warrior of the Burning Gate, but also a loyal servant who protects his master.
it is good!
Then you'll die before your master!
In the past, the enormous Jade Emperor would most likely have swung his jade robe and deflected the spear.

Because in the past, gunmen mainly focused on harassment and would never risk their lives to do something, but things are different now.

In response to the change in his opponent, Yu Zun also changed his tactics.

"Get out of the way!" But unexpectedly, a cold voice came from behind.

The enormous jade vessel was about to be obtained, but Qiang Xiu seemed to be a puppet on a string, having no time to think, and simply teleported away.

Yu Zun missed his target, looked up at the phoenix-robed woman flying backwards, and saw pieces of white jade tablets coming towards him.

"Boom! Boom!"

The explosion roared and the blast wave surged, spreading out in a raging inferno.

Jiang Ruyi clearly heard the sound of the jade statue's body crawling out of the cracks, but she felt no joy at all, because the sound of the jade robe fluttering was getting closer and closer.

The enormous jade deity was incredibly powerful and didn't care at all about the damage to his clothes.

She braved the blast wave and sped through the sea of ​​fire, flying forward at a much faster speed than Jiang Ruyi flew backward.

"Whoo~"

Jiang Ruyi pursed her lips tightly and plummeted rapidly downwards, pushing out pieces of gold and jade in her hand.

Defensive Divine Art: Golden Jade Eight Talismans!

She didn't think that a few gold and jade talismans could stop the Faceless Jade Venerable, but in her mind, they could at least slow down his momentum.

However, a series of cracking sounds revealed a cold and cruel reality.

The enormous jade vessel pierced through the gold and jade tablets, its momentum did slow down, but it was still faster than Jiang Ruyi's flight speed!

In just two rounds, the two sides were already incredibly close.

"Madam!" Cheng Xin's exclamation came from the distant sacred mountain.

He held the goat's hoof high, no longer caring about anything else, ready to unleash the divine magic of the goat at any moment.

Cheng Xin was well aware that his technique was crucial to the overall plan of the Burning Sect, but he was even more aware of Jiang Ruyi's position in Lu Ran's heart.

If we don't save him now, Cheng Xin will not be able to bear the responsibility if the future sect leader investigates!

Just then, Jiang Ruyi placed a hand on her waist.

Through a layer of phoenix robe and a layer of exquisite money pouch fabric, she squeezed the tiny toy soldier inside.

"Whoo~"

A small flame flew out from the mouth of the money bag, bursting out of the fluttering phoenix robe, and a figure suddenly appeared.

The enormous Jade Venerable was slightly taken aback, as a giant fiery hand rapidly appeared, precisely blocking her path.

This is the divine magic of the first-class Indian deity, the Fire Goddess.

Jade Venerable didn't have enough distance to stop her charge, and because the fiery palm was extremely large, it was even more difficult for her to dodge, so she simply crashed into it hard.

"Boom!"

A terrifying explosion followed.

Thinking back to early December last year, the Fire Goddess used this move to severely injure and nearly kill Hua Qingying, the Heavenly General of the Burning Gate.

Now, the same technique has been applied to the enormous jade vessel.
"Crack!"

That was the sound of cracks appearing on the jade body; it sounded like the injury was definitely not minor!
The raging flames also engulfed Jiang Ruyi, but she had a top-tier magic artifact, the Jade Ghost Talisman, wrapped around her waist.

I will not use any techniques related to thunder, fire, frost, or sand in this world!
"Whoo~"

Jiang Ruyi was unharmed and flew out of the sea of ​​fire.

Seeing this, Cheng Xin excitedly waved his sheep hoof.

It's hard to imagine that this is the behavior of a deity, and it's equally hard to imagine that this deity is actually an elderly man over sixty, a veteran who has been through many battles.

Well, you can't really blame Cheng Xin.

It's really difficult for him.

If he stands by and does not help, the Lord of the Burning Gate will surely not let him off!
No one knew better than Cheng Xin how terrifying the tomb was.

He faithfully served the tomb of the previous generation for decades, and his reverence for it had reached a level that was difficult for ordinary people to understand. He regarded the emperor as a tiger every day.

But if I were to lend a helping hand.
Lady Ranmen will definitely not let him off the hook. Isn't this treating matters of life and death like a child's game?!
Now, Lady Ranmen has another trump card, but it's a bit special. It's actually the first-class evil god of India, the Fire Evil Monk.

"Hehe." Another figure leaped out from the raging flames, accompanied by laughter.

The gods of the Burning Gate were all somewhat bewildered.

The jade vessel actually laughed?

Clearly, the enormous jade statue ruthlessly smashed the Vulcan's hand and flew out of the raging sea of ​​fire.

Her face had faint wrinkles, while the cracks on her jade robe were deeper, with traces of embers still remaining.

She turned around and saw a small flame fly to Jiang Ruyi's front, then transform into a huge male deity statue.

He had a bald head and a strikingly exotic appearance.

He clasped his hands together, appearing polite, yet he was like an angry Vajra, standing in front of the woman in the phoenix robe, glaring angrily at the Jade Emperor.

The phrase "loyal to one's master" not only applies to Qiang Xiu, but also perfectly describes Huo Xieseng.

"It seems that my decision to destroy you was the right one," the Faceless Jade Venerable said slowly.

Jiang Ruyi stared at the other person expressionlessly, her mind subtly shifting. Through the imprint etched deep within the Fire Evil Monk's soul, she issued commands in the form of instilling his will. The Fire Evil Monk immediately raised his hands!
In an instant, the temperature between heaven and earth soared, and countless flames appeared out of thin air, slowly rotating around the battlefield.

“You are no different from that pile of old stones.” Yu Zun casually brushed the embers off his body.

"Heh." Upon hearing this, a cold smile appeared on Jiang Ruyi's beautiful and charming face.

Yu Zun, however, spoke with facts: "I thought that Qiang Xiu had changed his ways and become a fearless warrior under the influence of you all, until I met him."

The enormous Jade Venerable's gaze swept over the Fiery Evil Monk, then looked at his master behind the servant: "So, it's not that their temperaments have changed drastically, but rather that they cannot disobey your orders."

You somehow controlled Gun Rot, Blood Skull, and Fire Evil Monk, turning them into slaves at your feet.

"Heh, Lu Ran. Nothing special."

The laughter was full of mockery and disdain.

Jiang Ruyi's face was cold. She found it hard not to care when it came to Lu Ran, and she didn't want Lu Ran to be slandered like this.

She said coldly, "What does it have to do with him?"

"I respected him too much and elevated him too high."

Yu Zun murmured, looking around at the dancing flames, his tone suddenly becoming much sharper: "You were once ants, you were once slaves! You know what it's like to be oppressed and enslaved."

Now that you have overthrown the rule of gods and demons, and stand in the same position, you too have begun to enslave all living beings?

Jiang Ruyi retorted, "You can crush them, but we're not allowed to retaliate?"

Yu Zun said coldly, "As a ruler, what difference is there between you and that pile of stones?"

Unexpectedly, Jiang Ruyi said, "There's no difference."

For the first time, Yu Zun frowned as he looked at Ming, the human goddess who had openly and generously acknowledged her.

“But he does.” Jiang Ruyi looked directly into the eyes of the enormous jade statue. “The reason these gods and demons were able to survive is because they could help Lu Ran achieve his goal.”

It can become a knife in his hand.

They were meant to perish, and they shouldn't have had any will of their own.

A knife is neither good nor evil.

The same kitchen knife can become a murder weapon in the hands of a murderer, but in the hands of a cook, it's just for chopping vegetables and smashing garlic.

The nature of the knife

It always depends on the person wielding the knife.

Yu Zun looked at the woman who was protecting Lu Ran and suddenly said, "Including you?"

Jiang Ruyi nodded slightly: "Of course."

She realized a cruel reality early on:

Even if the rule of gods and demons is overthrown and a new group of beings takes charge of the Three Realms, it's just a change in name only.

As long as you cultivate and climb up within the framework of gods and demons, following the system of gods and demons, you will eventually lose your humanity on the path of ascent.

They were gradually assimilated.

There was only one exception—Lu Ran.

He is not within the system of gods and demons, but rather transcends the framework of gods and demons.

Therefore, as long as Lu Ran is there, the gods of the Ranmen will never turn into those gods and demons.

Lu and Jiang had once worried that if they were to win, the soldiers of the Burning Gate might gradually decay and decay over the long years.

As Lu Ran became a young tomb
Ah,
Who would dare disobey his orders?
The worries of the past have become insignificant depending on the perspective.

Since the previous generation of tombs was able to maintain its steadfastness over the long years, Jiang Ruyi firmly believed that Lu Ran could too.

This means that under his rule, the Three Realms can enjoy a bright and clear world.

The only enemy standing in the way of this goal is the Faceless Jade Venerable.

As long as Jade Venerable can be defeated, how could the gods and demons of the other four major war zones possibly cause any trouble?
"You seem quite proud to be a knife in his hand, controlled by others?"

The enormous Jade Venerable looked at Jiang Ruyi, seemingly finding it difficult to understand the human woman's mindset, and asked, "Did he also use some means to restrict you in some way?"

"Hehe." Jiang Ruyi laughed.

laugh.

He returned all of Jade Venerable's previous mockery and disdain to her.

The enormous jade statue nodded slightly, its expression returning to its usual blank look, and uttered four words: "Hopeless."

“Indeed.” A hoarse voice suddenly came from behind and above.

The enormous jade-like figure's expression changed, and he abruptly turned around, waving his robe to block.

However, a thick pillar of fire was already being pushed out from the young man in the imperial robe.

How can one dodge a sneak attack that's so close at hand?

"Crack! Crack!!" The already damaged wide jade robe rapidly cracked and then exploded!

"Boom!"

Under the bombardment of the pillar of fire, the enormous jade spirit crashed heavily to the ground, causing the entire Third Heaven to tremble and vibrate.

Even figures like Qiang Xiu and Huo Xieseng showed expressions of shock.

The young man in the imperial robes, his body ablaze with flames of slaughter beyond his level, flew downwards, glancing back at the woman: "Next time you confess, do it to the person in question."

Jiang Ruyi was initially surprised and delighted, but her expression froze upon hearing this.

She then looked away in slight panic, turning her head to look down.

The terrifying flames that pierced the sea were seen crushing the enormous jade vessel on the ground, causing it to slide forward relentlessly.

Indiscriminate bombing.

It was destroying that proud jade body.
