The Old Gods

Chapter 1068 The God-Slaying Blade
Located in the southeast of the battlefield, Conglongshen Mountain was originally defended by a fairly strong force.

This mountain is guarded by Yu Changsheng, with He Yingcai as his virtuous wife, and is also protected by Xun Shenjiang and Luo Shenjiang, with the Rain Master and other gods and demons providing assistance.

Furthermore, a group of gods and demons who had retreated from the southeastern front of Yanzhi Divine Mountain joined the ranks of the Dragon Protector to jointly guard the mountain.

However, when Lu Ran arrived here, he saw an extremely tragic scene of war.

The sky-covering dragon-carp celestial ship crashed violently into the white jade city wall, but was engulfed by the white jade waves along the way. The pale golden fish instantly turned into jade and then into dust.

The giant fish fell, with the arrow at its tip.

Luo Ying drew his bow to its fullest extent, unleashing a thousand dragons that finally shattered the white jade city wall. However, enemies from the other three sides continued to advance wave after wave.

The divine techniques used by gods and demons can instantly kill even lowly minions of the Heavenly Realm.

However, when the Jade Venerable clan has enough numbers and charges forward recklessly regardless of life or death, no sacred mountain can withstand them.

The presence of the Jade Venerable himself only exacerbated the already dire situation at Dragon God Mountain.

The Rain Master, an eighth-rank god who held two divine positions, has died.

Fortunately, some of the henchmen of this faction survived, and a light drizzle continued to fall.

Xun Yifei was able to move at high speed through the rain, maximizing its maneuverability.

The endless water whips released from his body could shatter countless Jade Venerable minions with each sweep, seemingly crushing them, yet he still retreated.

The Jade Venerable Clan posed too great a threat to the divine stone body; the gods and demons dared not allow them to touch it in the slightest.

The number of henchmen was too great, seemingly endless.
As the battle continues, the minions left behind by the Rain Master will eventually all perish, at which point Xun Yifei will have no choice but to rely on his divine weapon to fly.

It's no exaggeration to say that the mobility of the Seeker General will drop by two or three levels!
It's like falling into an abyss.

Red Candle, who was under the command of the Paper Man, also died in battle.

In the memories of the Jade Venerable's soul, Lu Ran had personally witnessed this goddess with two divine positions being pulled into the arms of the enormous Jade Venerable, who then brutally crushed her delicate body.

It now appears that the evil god Mud Mountain Boar under the command of the Paper Man is also dead.

Lu Ran saw that at the foot of the mountain, a thick fog shrouded a large number of Mud Mountain Boar minions, but he could not see the souls of the Mud Mountain Boars in the fog.

Only Qing Tu remained loyal and devoted to protecting the family head, and his master...
The paper effigy stood atop the mountain, a faint sadness filling her eyes. In her naturally drooping hand, she held a paper doll tightly.

However, her goal was not greatly affected.

The tyranny of the enormous jade vessel is evident in every aspect; being occasionally disturbed or having its arm slightly bent is of no consequence whatsoever.

The Jade Venerable possessed sufficient power to break free from the control of the invisible hand.

"Ring ring~ Ring~"

A mountain breeze swept by, and the exquisite phoenix crown worn by the paper doll suddenly emitted a clear and melodious sound.

Yan Zhiren's heart skipped a beat, as if she had realized something.

On such a fierce battlefield, tiny, invisible creatures should not be noticed by anyone.

But someone had made a pact with her, and with her phoenix-and-dragon crown.

"Boom! Boom!"

The deafening roar of the bombardment was incessant.

The reason why Dragon God Mountain could still stand firm was because a powerful reinforcement arrived: a golden female warrior monk!
One of the Four Heavenly Emperors of the Burning Gate - the Wind Emperor!
In the drizzling rain, He Qifeng appeared as if he had three heads and six arms, his body gleaming with golden light and exuding a majestic aura.

Every punch she throws can unleash a terrifying golden wave of energy, every palm strike can unleash a golden monk's palm, and every kick can unleash a golden dragon.

The ultimate move of the Shaolin monks—the Fighting Golden Monk!
Feng Tiandi is undoubtedly the one who "saved the collapsing edifice." Her arrival reversed the decline of the divine mountain, and she is now frantically hunting down the Jade Venerable himself.

"Qi Feng, force the enemy to the south." Lu Ran issued the order directly.

He Qifeng's golden eyes suddenly lit up. After a long time, she heard the sect leader's voice again, which greatly excited her.

at last!

You've finally arrived.
Our Burning Gate is really too difficult.

He Qifeng has always been like a firefighter rushing to the rescue, and he has witnessed the tragic state of one sacred mountain after another.

She does indeed possess unparalleled strength, even Jade Venerable herself has to avoid her sharp edge, but Wind Emperor's weaknesses and strengths are equally obvious - lack of mobility!
She doesn't have the same ability as the Martial Emperor to follow her like a shadow; all her attribute points, such as attack speed and movement speed, are allocated to output and defense.

The second-tier magic artifact, the Three Thousand Ripples Shoes, beneath her feet could not help her match Jade Venerable in terms of speed.

Even just now, under her desperate pursuit, the enormous Jade Venerable dodged and crushed the Mud Mountain Boar.
They completely manipulated her.

The Heavenly Emperor of Wind was furious!

Yet they had no choice but to accept the reality of their own incompetence.

At times like these, the deep voice imprinted in her mind was like a dazzling beam of light, even brighter than her own golden skin.

"Roar!" The dragon's roar resounded across the sky.

The Wind Emperor suddenly kicked out, and the golden dragon bared its fangs and claws, rushing straight towards the path of the enormous jade deity.

Yu Zun reacted incredibly quickly, and sure enough, her forward momentum came to an abrupt halt. As the golden monk's palm shot towards her, she decisively flew backward and continued to fall.

Clearly, she intended to dodge beneath the golden monk's palm.

Lu Ran, who was hidden and invisible, looked at the white jade figure that was magnified infinitely in his line of sight and raised one hand.

A sneak attack requires close enough proximity!

We must defeat the enemy with a single blow!
The Jade Emperor's reaction speed and mobility are no joke.

Closer, even closer
"call!!"

A terrifying pillar of fire suddenly erupted.

The enormous jade statue suddenly changed color and dodged to the side, but was still grazed by the edge of the pillar of fire.

"Sect Master?!"

"Is that the sect leader? The sect leader has arrived?"

A chorus of exclamations of surprise and delight echoed from the sacred mountain. The gods witnessed the colossal jade deity, nearly invincible, being blasted and spun around before being completely engulfed by pillars of fire. "Boom!!"

Lu Ran swiftly slashed downwards, his body burning with a killing flame that surpassed his level. The sea-piercing flames continued relentlessly, crushing the enemy to the ground and bombarding them relentlessly.

"Click! Click!!"

The jade body kept shattering, the sound crisp and clear.

In an instant, excited shouts echoed across the battlefield, and even the usually elegant Cai Shen General let out a cathartic roar.

It's hard to imagine how much fear and resentment she had accumulated in her heart over such a long period of time.

Lu Ran could empathize with him.

Because in Yu Zun's memory, he witnessed the fall of the soldiers and clearly realized how fragile the Burning Gate was.

Indeed, he viewed everything from the perspective of the Jade Emperor.

But he would naturally put himself in the role of the soldiers, and once he did, he would...
Lu Ran felt incredibly weak and helpless.

The feeling of being powerless to resist, and only being able to watch helplessly as you are trampled and crushed to death, is so desperate.

Lu Ran pursed his lips tightly, continuing to push the pillar of fire with one hand while grabbing to his side with the other.

With a "whoosh," the Venerable Slayer Blade moved swiftly according to its master's will, its hilt falling into the master's palm.

Under the gazes of the crowd, some excited, some filled with hatred, the pillar of fire that stretched diagonally between heaven and earth continued to shorten, signifying that someone was about to stab down rapidly.

Until the pillar of fire suddenly vanished, an extremely piercing sound resounded throughout the heavens and earth.

"Crack!!"

The tiny human, wielding his blade, pierced the enormous head of the beautiful woman.

His size was so insignificant, even somewhat laughable, compared to the enormous jade statue.

But at this moment, this jade body is covered with cracks, like a beautiful piece of porcelain on the verge of collapse, no longer able to withstand any wind or rain.

This blow was the final straw that broke the camel's back.

Take a break!

The enormous human head exploded with a deafening roar, sending countless jade fragments flying in all directions.

"Om!!"

The Blade of Slaying the Venerable trembled violently.

The owner's mindset perfectly matches its growth path.

A humble and insignificant ant challenges the absolute authority of the world and shatters the high and mighty.
Insubordination!

"Whoo~"

A thick fog tornado descended from the sky, enveloping one side of the sacred mountain.

The gods on the mountain all looked astonished.

Is the sect leader still growing?

He can actually grow stronger?
On this brutal battlefield where life and death intertwine, Lu Ran has advanced again. Well, perhaps he advanced by wielding a divine weapon or magical artifact?

No matter what, we must protect it!

We can give up the entire sacred mountain, but the sect leader must not have any problems.

"General Luo, go immediately to where the sect leader is." Yu Changsheng looked up at the mist tornado descending from the sky and made a decisive decision, "Activate your perception techniques and eliminate any enemies that attempt to approach!"

"Yes!" Luo Ying's foot slammed down, shooting straight down the mountain.

"Cai Shenjiang, go and protect the sect leader, unfold your defensive armor."

Before Yu Changsheng could finish speaking and before He Yingcai could respond, the paper figure had already flown down.

Yu Changsheng frowned, but he couldn't care less about that now. He ordered, "Feng Tiandi, guard the sect leader outside the mist. There must be no mistakes!"

"Pfft~~~"

Just as the mist tornado descended, the shattered jade vessel dispersed a thick fog, completely engulfing the area.

Yu Changsheng kept ordering: "All Wei Yun henchmen, listen to my command! Pay close attention to the situation inside the fog, and report any developments immediately!"

"Mute~"

“Caw~~~” The cawing of crows echoed from all around the sacred mountain.

There aren't many gods and demons who can see through the fog, but Wei Yun happens to be an expert in this. Although he himself isn't here, all of his subordinates have bird eyes that can see through the fog.

One of the invisible black crows saw Madam Rouge fly down quickly and carefully pick up the sect leader.

The mist tornado pierced through her fingers, connecting one of the people with a knife.

The crimson cloak was lifted high, obscuring the sky and blocking the view of the henchmen.

"Om!!"

The Venerable Slayer Blade trembled violently, and a deep voice shouted: "Concentrate!"

"Hmm." Lu Ran responded in a deep voice, having no reason to argue about being reprimanded.

Because he was holding a knife in one hand and a ball of black mist in the other, he had just diverted some of his attention to imprison the Jade Venerable's soul within it.

Lu Ran could directly immobilize the Jade Venerable's soul, but there were too many bodyguards around, and he might be accidentally devoured by them.

After briefly distracting himself to finish all this, he stood in the palm of the paper doll and closed his eyes.

Lu Ran felt a strong desire for power.

This intense desire originated from the spirit of the Slaying Venerable Blade!
powerful,

This gives them the right to defy authority!
