The Old Gods

Chapter 1079 She, the Mountain of Corpses
The same scene played out one after another at Fengyan Sacred Mountain in the Northwest and Nightmare Sacred Mountain in the North.

Large, dark gray waterfalls cascaded down from within the teleportation array, drenching the enormous jade statue from head to toe.

The soldiers of the Burning Gate were greatly encouraged!

While excited, they were also slightly shocked.

What kind of being is the Faceless Jade Venerable?
Her domineering presence and unparalleled charisma, which crushed gods and demons, had already taken deep root in the hearts of the soldiers.

But faced with the raging waterfall, she suddenly began to scream angrily, completely losing her composure.

this.?

Lu Ran was probably the most shocked one.

He had the most contact with the Faceless Jade Venerable. Thinking back to the end of the last war, when he personally executed the last enormous Jade Venerable, what was the other party's reaction?
With a faint smile on her face, she spoke words of despair in a flat tone.

She didn't struggle or resist at all, maintaining a broken yet proud face as Lu Ran set fire to her brow.

To face death with equanimity.

And look at her now, she's almost driven insane just because her skin is polluted!
Is this really the same being?

It wasn't just the Jade Venerable that was submerged by the waterfall! The other enormous Jade Venerables that attacked the sacred mountain were also filled with rage and their eyes were bloodshot.

Just how much do the Jade Venerable Clan hate gods and demons?
To contaminate her into a stone artifact would be an extreme insult to her, something she would rather die than accept.

This insult triggered an unprecedented offensive from the Jade Venerable Clan!
The soldiers' hearts were once again in suspense as they held fast to the sacred mountain, desperately resisting the enemy's suicidal charges.

At the Nightmare Mountain.

Deng Yuxiang's eyes were sharp as he wielded the top-tier divine weapon, the Night-Slaying Greatsword. The broken blade extended into a thousand-meter-long blade as he fiercely slashed at the massive Jade Venerable who was attacking him.

"Ding!!"

The crisp sound resounded throughout the land, shocking the minds of all living beings.

Deng Yuxiang: ?

Has the Jade Emperor gone mad?
Don't dodge!

Resistance?

Beneath the magnificent blade, the enormous jade deity charged forward, carrying the blade. Its sky-covering jade robe was torn apart, and cracks continued to appear on its back beneath the blade.

She ignored everything and rushed straight towards the sacred mountain!

"Then go die!" Deng Yuxiang immediately raised his knife, his ruthlessness rising, his eyes sharp as much as the knife in his hand.

"Yu Xiang, to the north!" Yan Shuangzi exclaimed.

Deng Yuxiang turned her head sharply and saw Yin Yan flying backward rapidly, with countless black mist whips spreading from her body, lashing wildly in front of her to block the enemy's advance.

The enormous jade vessel that attacked from the north completely ignored the whip lashing its body, its giant hand grabbing fiercely forward.

"Ahhh!" Deng Yuxiang changed to holding the sword hilt with both hands and let out a rare battle roar.

The blood jade ring on her finger glowed red, infusing its owner with a violent power. The magnificent blade, gleaming with a cold light, swung out a silver moon in mid-air.

The Shadow Guardian flashed to the scene instantly, and before the blade could strike, he and Yin Tianjiang teleported away.

"Crack!!"

The sound of shattering was earth-shattering.
Phoenix Swallow Sacred Mountain.

The battle situation has been relatively good because the Jade Venerable himself was first discovered here, so the Lord of the Burning Gate is located here.

"Shu~"

Lu Ran's figure flashed, intercepting the path of a huge jade deity flying in the air. His body was burning with flames that could kill beyond his level, and he raised his hand to unleash a sea-piercing flame!

"Boom!"

The pillar of fire struck the massive jade statue with pinpoint accuracy.

Yu Zun has really gone mad!

In previous battles, facing the same situation, she would definitely try to dodge. Her powerful mobility and reaction ability made it difficult for Lu Ran to succeed, so he could only launch a surprise attack.

But at this moment.
"Heh." Lu Ran snorted coldly, his eyes filled with malice.

crazy?

so what?

After killing like this, who the hell isn't going crazy?
Wang Longxiang, Wuya, Hua Qingying, Bai Yanhui, and Niu Zhengzheng all died tragically on the battlefield one after another.

Even if these people can be rescued, it won't stop Lu Ran's heart from bleeding.

And those who can't be saved!
Divine General Jin Que'er, Heavenly General Tu Feng, one god and demon after another
Lord Xianyang!

Who! Can! No! Go crazy?
"Aaaaaah!" The enormous jade statue screamed in anger as it was crushed on the ground by the pillar of fire, sliding backward continuously.

Lu Ran's black and gold imperial robe fluttered in the wind as he used the Sea-Piercing Flame in one hand to crush the Jade Venerable's true form, which was churning in the misty sea on the ground, while wielding a sword in the other hand and slashing forward fiercely.

The wind suddenly rises!

Long, intricate knife marks appeared out of thin air, spreading towards the white jade waves.

"Snap! Snap!"

The equally frenzied henchmen of the Jade Emperor were torn to pieces by the knife marks.

The enormous jade vessel, crushed by the pillar of fire, exploded with a deafening roar.

There were three Jade Venerables who besieged Phoenix Swallow Divine Mountain. One of them was submerged by the Dark Waterfall and eventually turned to ashes, while another died under Lu Ran's palm.

There was also a massive jade deity who, despite the piercing flames of the Mad Immortal Protector and the sandstorms slashed out by the Phoenix and Swallow Generals, forcefully advanced into the sacred mountain.

We are determined to crush the gods to pieces!

"I'll f*** you! Die, you son of a bitch!!" The Mad Immortal was equally insane. With one hand she pushed the pillar of fire, and with the other she fiercely lifted the top-tier divine weapon, the Prison Hammer.

Seeing the enemy's desperate attempt to destroy everything, the Mad Immortal Protector, with bloodshot eyes, suddenly unleashed his fiercely burning celestial chariot!
Come!
Let's confront each other head-on!

Who's afraid of who? Huh?

【Si Xianxian.】A hoarse voice suddenly flooded his mind. The Great Mad Immortal, whose head was filled with qi and blood, felt a chill run down his spine and his whole body instantly turned cold.

The young man in imperial robes appeared in the sky diagonally above the celestial chariot, and also launched a sea-piercing flame, blasting the rampaging Jade Venerable to the ground.

Si Xianxian looked very unwell, and the celestial carriage was turned off.

Her momentum had reached its peak; she wouldn't be able to vent her anger until this hammer struck the enemy's face!
But then someone comes along and disrupts things.

Moreover, this person is the master of the Burning Gate.
Ultimately, her personal nature prevailed over her fear, and she looked at the young man with a mixture of anger and apprehension.

But then she saw that the other person was also looking at her, and their hoarse voice echoed in her ears once more: "I've already lost enough, I can't lose you too."

Si Xianxian's heart skipped a beat, and her eyes widened slightly.

It's hard to imagine that such words came from that eerie and terrifying "tomb".

Si Xianxian pouted and whispered, "I...I understand, don't be angry, I'll do whatever you say."

Lu Ran's expression suddenly changed!
What came to mind was Mr. Long's plea for help, his tone more anxious than ever before.

This was enough to alarm Lu Ran, but what shocked and angered him even more was that Yu Changsheng said he had seen it. He had actually seen it.
"Shu~"

Lu Ran's figure flashed, reaching the summit of Phoenix Swallow Mountain and landing on the shoulder of the Immortal Sheep God Statue (Cheng Xin).

He had brought Cheng Xin with him from Blood Dust Divine Mountain when he came to provide support.

Cheng Xin was well aware that it was time for the Divine Magic Sheep he had been holding onto to finally come into play!
Lu Ran is waiting for the right opportunity!
The massive jade vessel was damaged, but not to the point of being severely damaged or on the verge of breaking.

In that case, Cheng Xin's spellcasting success rate would be higher, and he could keep the opponent in the lamb state for a longer period of time.

It takes time for Lu Ran to extract the memories of living beings.

Now is the time!
Having temporarily averted the crisis at Phoenix Swallow Divine Mountain, Lu Ran now had a relatively stable environment for casting spells. He blasted the last remaining massive jade vessel to the ground and was about to order Cheng Xin to cast a spell.

But plans can't keep up with changes!
With a "whoosh," all beings felt a blur before their eyes, and the celestial sheep statue on the mountaintop vanished without a trace.

Lu Ran left with Old Master Cheng?
"kill!"

"Kill!!" Feng Yan and his companion reacted with lightning speed, roaring loudly.

The Great Mad Immortal quickly regained his senses, unleashing a sea-piercing flame from his hand to finish off the last enormous jade spirit.

Lu Ran was flashing around frantically. He was using the Divine-grade Evil Shadow Flash, which could teleport people instantly, and each teleportation was over a thousand kilometers.

After several flashes, he concealed himself and Cheng Xin, and traveled from the Northwest to the Southeast front line.

The scene before him caused Lu Ran's pupils to contract sharply!

Cheng Xin was utterly dumbfounded!

From the distant horizon, the Jade Emperor's angry words echoed:
"How dare you defile me?"

Back in time.

A few dozen seconds ago.

As they descended from Dragon God Mountain, the gods were greatly encouraged!
The crashing waterfall forcefully "washed away" the enormous jade statue, leaving behind a rich aura of primordial energy that permeated the area.

The Jade Venerable One himself is dead!

Simple and neat!

But the gods' joy was short-lived, as they were met with a frenzied attack from the Jade Venerable clan.

A white jade wave surged forth, and the white jade city wall pressed forward relentlessly.

Even more terrifying, as the walls continued to tear apart, enormous creatures embedded within them suddenly opened their eyes.

One enormous jade deity perished, and three enormous jade deities emerged to fight their way out.

All the gods turned pale!

Yu Changsheng's expression was terribly stiff.

How can this be?

How can there be so many Jade Venerables in person?
Judging from the utter madness of this clan, they probably have no backup plan, and the opponent has most likely revealed their full strength.

In other words, Phoenix Swallow Divine Mountain has 3 Jade Venerables, Nightmare Divine Mountain has 3, and our side has 4.
So, the real breakthrough point was Longshen Mountain?
Wait!
Three, three, four, the enemy has deployed a total of ten Jade Venerables in their true forms?

In the last great battle, nineteen soldiers of the Burning Gate perished, nine of whom were rescued as spirits.

The remaining ten soldiers' souls were devoured by the Faceless Jade Venerable.

Are the quantities the same?
In the last battle, Jade Venerable devoured 10 divine souls, and this time there are 10 Jade Venerables themselves on the expedition.
Is this really a coincidence?

"Release the arrows!" General Luo Shen truly lived up to his reputation as a warrior among warriors.

She was indeed terrified, but her voice remained strong and her will unwavering.

She directed the henchmen all over the mountain to cast spells, while at the same time she drew her bow and aimed at the enormous jade statue that was attacking from the east, and then released the string between her fingers.

"Den!"

The bowstring trembled, and the mosasaur roared.

A giant water arrow shot from her bow, thrusting forward while simultaneously piecing itself together. Two mosasaurs coiled around the arrow, increasing the speed and impact of the magnificent arrow as it pierced the invading enemy!
"Defend against the enemy!" Emperor Fengtian shouted, already activating his ultimate move, the Fighting Golden Monk.

She charged out of the western cliff alone, her golden boots creating ripples as she stepped out, and her golden monk's palm thrust out to meet the enormous jade statue that was charging from the west.

The Great Monk of the Burning Gate, fearless and dignified!

One in the east, one in the west, two generals fought bravely and tenaciously, each more valiant than the other.

However, there was another enormous jade deity on the south side of the sacred mountain. She was furious and completely disregarded the various techniques that were about to hit her. She charged wildly and crashed straight towards the mountainside.

"Whoo~"

In an instant, the henchmen of Qin Yan, who were hidden on the mountainside, unleashed giant spider lilies.

As soon as the opponent enters the range of the illusory flowers, they will gather the flowers and teleport the enemy away.

It is imperative to ensure the stability of the sacred mountain.

"call!"

Suddenly, the enormous jade deity flung its jade robe, and countless jade deity minions crashed down onto the mountainside.

It was incredibly fast and extremely powerful!
The Jade Venerable Clan was capable of flight. The minions, who were used as "white jade bullets," adjusted their direction during the initial blast and smashed them hard against Qin Yan's henchmen.

"Bang! Bang!"

Many of Qin Yan's lackeys held on stubbornly, knowing that the white jade stone bullets posed little threat, and that the Jade Venerable himself was the real culprit.

With that in mind, they were smashed to pieces.

Along with the mountainside halfway up the mountain, it was smashed into a dense array of craters.

"Whoosh!" Many flowers also withered. At this critical moment of life and death, some of Qin Yan's henchmen could only temporarily teleport away with the white jade bullets before they could bloom the other shore flowers again.

But the enormous Jade Emperor has already arrived!

"Ding!!"

The piercing sound echoed across the battlefield.

From Dragon God Mountain, there is also a top-tier combatant, Lu Tiandi!

From the mountaintop to the mountainside, it all happened in an instant.

"Uh." Emperor Lu felt a tremendous force strike him, making his hands numb and almost causing him to lose his grip on the knife.

He was using the Blood Skull Evil Art - Blood Burning Body, causing his attributes to surge and his strength to increase dramatically.

The twin blades ripped open the churning jade robe and slashed fiercely at the massive jade statue. With a crisp "crack," one of the blades broke!

The enormous Jade Venerable was sent flying by the blow, and Emperor Lu was also sent flying back, his massive body crashing into the mountainside.

The surviving henchmen of Qin Yan were pale-faced and shrouded in shadow. But at the critical moment, they saw Lu Tiandi teleport away, dissipate his momentum, and hover steadily a dozen meters away from the mountain.

But neither gods nor demons nor minions had a chance to catch their breath.

"Boom!"

The white jade city wall that stretched across the sky and earth in the south collapsed with a deafening roar.

A colossal shadow, connecting heaven and earth and never before seen by anyone, slowly revealed its outline and appeared on the battlefield of the celestial realm.

Is that a mountain?

A mountain of corpses, made up of countless jade statues, layer upon layer, piled up!
No, that's not right!

These are not the corpses of the Jade Emperor's henchmen.

These remains were indeed made of jade, but their faces were not blurred and each one had a different appearance.

What's even more chilling is that every face is so distorted, as if they had all experienced some kind of extreme pain before they died.

Those pairs of jade eyes were all wide open, staring blankly at something.

Don't rest your eyes!

This scene brought a tremendous visual impact and spiritual shock to the soldiers!
The gods felt a chill run through their bodies, and even their souls trembled slightly.

What... what is this?

What is this?

Amidst this desolate mountain of corpses, a voice descended from the distant sky.

The Faceless Jade Venerable was no longer as composed as before; her voice was icy and piercing, containing a furious rage at having a taboo violated.
"How dare you defile me?"
