The Old Gods

Chapter 747: One Step to the Peak

The retreat room No. 1 was shrouded in fog.

Lu Ran sat cross-legged quietly in meditation, seemingly like an old monk in trance, but in fact his body was surging with waves.

The fog that was surging between heaven and earth was compressed by him as much as possible and condensed into streams, which flowed into the surging rivers in his body and merged into the vast and boundless ocean.

The violent fluctuations of divine power nourished the magical weapons and instruments around him.

Among them, Xiao Chifeng is the busiest.

It was already full as it could not be, and it pressed against Lu Ran's palm, continuously pouring divine power into Lu Ran's body, freeing up a little space to absorb more divine power, and then continued to pour divine power on its master.
Excited.

"Buzz~" Suddenly, the little Chifeng trembled slightly.

"What's wrong, Chi.Chi Feng?" Lu Ran said stutteringly. Although he knew that he should focus on breaking through, he couldn't help but ask with concern when little Chi Feng had an abnormal reaction.

The gourd with the Fiery Phoenix pattern stopped vibrating immediately.

"What happened?" Lu Ran frowned slightly.

The little red phoenix seldom speaks human words, and even when it does, it only makes pleasant phoenix sounds.

As the master of magical weapons, Lu Ran could usually understand what the other party meant, but this time, he really couldn't understand.

[I want to trap the enemy.] A childish voice imprinted itself in Lu Ran's mind.

The voice was so soft and sticky that Lu Ran's heart almost melted.
[The enemy is trapped in the belly and cannot move.] Little Chifeng whispered.

Lu Ran understood what Xiao Chi Feng meant. Recently, he often put his enemies into the gourd, and had the evil shadow guardian force the prisoners to tear up the contract and control the other party.

So, Xiao Chifeng wants to help?

Do you want the enemy to be controlled and unable to move after entering the gourd?
"You are so good." Lu Ran held the gourd with the Fiery Phoenix pattern in his arms and stroked it gently.

"Li~" The little Chifeng was very happy and kept rubbing in Lu Ran's palm.

To date, it has helped many people advance.

Most of the time, he was just doing his job. For example, when helping Xue Fengchen, Gao Yunyan, Niu Zhengzheng and others, Xiao Chifeng would just stay quietly on the ground.

To very few people, it would express affection appropriately, such as when it helped Jiang Ruyi.

It will nestle carefully in its mother's arms, not daring to move for fear of annoying her.

And here with Lu Ran, little Chi Feng can have fun as much as she wants and let her nature run wild.

It especially likes Lu Ran's palm.

Warm and soft, it feels so comfortable to rub against
"Buzz!" The gourd with the Fiery Phoenix Pattern vibrated a little more, but its small movement was completely covered up by the fluctuations of divine power caused by its owner.

"Huh" Lu Ran suddenly raised his head, and even his sigh was trembling.

The energy surging in his body filled up the container of his body and expanded its limits again and again, even making Lu Ran feel like he was about to explode and die.

That's what it feels like!

The Eight Desolations Sword was slung diagonally across Lu Ran's back, and the sword spirit within it continued to dig deeper into the "illusion" of its master.

Searching hard.

Self-destruct?
Like the evil technique of skull explosion and burial that the master encountered before, and like the master at this moment, the body cannot bear more?

The Eight Desolate Sword Spirit is researching a whole new field of magical weapons, searching for the key to upgrading to the third-tier magical weapons.

"call!!"

Suddenly, a terrifying wave of air spread out from Lu Ran's body.

He held Little Chifeng in one hand and reached down with the other hand to press down the Yunhaichenqing Knife lying flat on his knee.

Xiaguang, Jiye and Bahuang are all magical weapons and will take good care of themselves.

Yes, the Ji Ye Dao had completed its mission long ago and was taken back by Lu Ran.

Ever since Lu Ran activated the statue of the female heroine and signed a contract with the general Wang Longxiong so that they could communicate through voice transmission, he took back the Silent Night Sword.

“Uhhhhhhh~~~”

Lu Ran stretched hard and felt refreshed.

As he moved, there were several crisp bone sounds coming from his body.

Sea realm, fourth stage!

"Hehe~" Lu Ran showed a happy smile on his face, looking a little silly.

From now on, I am also a legendary high-level sea realm master!
One more step and you will reach the peak of the sea realm!

"Ugh." Lu Ran turned into a puddle of mud again and fell backwards. As a result, Ji Ye Dao exerted a little force to support its master and prevented him from lying down.

Lu Ran: “.”

Now it can be seen how much the magic weapon cares about its master.

Xiaguang and Bahuang had always been in telepathic communication with Lu Ran, and when their master wanted to lie down and relax, the two swords didn’t stop him.

Only Jiyedao Xijing, who had been immersed in his own world, was caught off guard by this scene.

Poor Ji Ye, he is still a first-class divine weapon, and has always been suppressed by a certain divine weapon that got there first, preventing him from comprehending the realm of divine weapons.

Lu Ran raised his hand, grasped the hilt above his shoulder, and pulled out the Silent Night Sword.

He finally lay down and whispered, "Where is that guy?"

Ji Ye rarely expresses his thoughts: [It better be very strong. ]

"Yeah." Lu Ran nodded in agreement.

As early as when he was on earth, Ji Yedao had already found the correct path to enlightenment, but he had been blocked ever since.

Lu Ran's strength has been rising rapidly, and now he has reached the fourth stage of Sea Realm!

The longer he delays, the stronger he will become. One day, when Lu Ran really finds the magic sword that has always suppressed the Ji Ye Sword,
The opponent better be really strong!
Otherwise, Lu Ran would crush him to pieces.

Is the master of the magic weapon in heaven? Or is he deep in a demon cave in the human world?
Is the master of the magic weapon a human or a god or demon?
Lu Ran was lost in thought, lying limply on the ground. After a long time he realized that the fog in the retreat room had not completely dissipated.

Is there anyone else in the cliff who has advanced?
[As I recall.] [Congratulations.] Fairy Jiang’s gentle voice immediately came into my mind.

【Who is advancing? 】

[Your Starry Sky Hall Master. ]

[Chang Ying?] Lu Ran's face lit up with joy, [She was at the fourth level of Jiang Realm before?]

[Yes, she has been promoted for two days and may be promoted to the peak of Jiang Realm at any time.] Jiang Ruyi was quite emotional.

Think about the people in Lu Ran's team, Tian Tian, ​​Deng Yutang, and Chang Ying.
The one who joined Ranmen last is the most promising!
If Heaven is going to give a man a great responsibility, will it really require him to suffer in heart and in body first?

[I was thinking a while ago that when Chang Ying is promoted to the Sea Realm and can take charge of things on her own, I will let her lead the team to take back the Starry Sky Valley and work together with the Dragon Valley to take care of each other.] Lu Ran smiled and transmitted the message.

Jiang Ruyi thought for a moment and nodded secretly. If it was Chang Ying, she should be able to take on the important task.

She then asked: [Are you going to stay in the retreat room for a while? Little Yuanxi really wants to see you.]

[I need to get familiar with my new body. When I lay down just now, the ground was smashed into pieces. I need to adjust myself.]

【Then I'll let her wait for you at home. 】

[By the way, what day is it today? ]

【February 19.】

When it was late at night and everyone was asleep, the fog in the Yunhai Cliff finally dissipated, and it seemed that Chang Shengun had got what he wanted.

Lu Ran also sneaked back home.

Jiang Ruyi, who was practicing in the study room, was about to leave when she was stopped by Lu Ran.

"Long time no see, Your Majesty." Lu Ran walked back to the study room with the warm and soft girl in his arms. The weapons automatically returned to their places, and the little Chi Feng also flew back to the desk.

Unfortunately, Little Chifeng still failed to advance and comprehend new effects.

However, as a mature magical weapon, it will work hard to study on its own. Especially after being praised by Lu Ran for being "so good", the little Chi Feng will be even more motivated.

"Hmm." Jiang Ruyi's face showed a little bit of annoyance. The noble phoenix robe on her body really boosted her power.

As a second-level magical weapon, Lu Ran’s black jade tiger talisman will only come into play when necessary.

The Phoenix Robe was the complete opposite. It would not show its power unless Jiang Ruyi specifically ordered it to do so.

In the understanding of this magic weapon, the world is always in order of hierarchy. At the beginning, even if someone dared to look at its owner, it would be classified as an offense to the majesty of heaven.
The phoenix soars into the sky, and all living beings bow their heads.

it's better now.

Jiang Ruyi and Fengpao were both embraced by Lu Ran. Fengpao, like its master, let him do whatever he wanted.

"The money for the afterlife of Nightmare, Evil Shadow, and Shadow One all contains the souls of the dead. Remember to collect them tomorrow."

"Another Angry Sea Flame Dragon?" Lu Ran said with a smile.

Every time someone advances, the invasion of Yunhai Cliff by the Angry Sea Flame Dragon has become a regular feature.

In other words, Lu Ran's Black Carp Team and Sea Shark Team controlled the Black Sea Bay area. Otherwise, the Black Carp and Sea Shark tribes would probably not be few in number.

"There are still a few dead human souls."

"Human?" Lu Ran was a little surprised. When the Ran Clan was first established, there were still a few individuals who showed up, but in the following days, very few humans came rashly to attack.

"I asked Niu Zhengzheng to interrogate the four Yan Qing disciples. These people came from the north."

As the evil demon Soul-Splitting Demon, Niu Zhengzheng of course also has Soul Hell and Soul Fire.

Lu Ran could completely free himself and let Niu Tou be the cruel executioner.

Jiang Ruyi's voice became much colder: "They have not been in the mountains for long, but they know the rules thoroughly."

"Yeah." Lu Ran remembered the time when he first entered the mountains.

Ignorant and fearless.

"You are getting closer and closer to the heavenly realm." Jiang Ruyi no longer bothered about the villain. She rested her head on Lu Ran's shoulder, and her voice softened again.

"Yes, so we have to speed up." Lu Ran said softly.

"Ok?"

"Have a good sleep tonight. Tomorrow morning I will go to the lair of the Jinmie Demon Clan and activate the evil sculpture as soon as possible so that I will no longer be afraid of fire."

Jiang Ruyi was quite satisfied with Lu Ran's decision.

At the same time, Feng Yi's nine-sky robe was lowered, and her long tail was gently lifted up and wrapped around Lu Ran.

"What is this?" Lu Ran was a little confused.

Jiang Ruyi: “.”

Sometimes, telepathic communication is not a good thing.

She may have many thoughts in her mind, but her face is as calm as a lake. However, the magic weapon follows its master, and love for the owner extends to everyone in it, expressing the emotions of both her master and herself.

Lu Ran felt the phoenix robe gently caressing his back, and couldn't help but look strange: "The Empress is quite satisfied?
Is this encouragement? Reward?"

Jiang Ruyi blushed a little and changed the subject, "You have to take Yuan Xi with you when you go out to fight tomorrow? I'll go with you and protect her."

Lu Ran smiled and didn't make things difficult for her: "Okay, bring Guard Xuanshuang with you. It's too hot in Jinmie Ridge, and she can help cool it down. By the way!

Speaking of Xuanshuang, does she always help you bathe and change clothes?"

"Well, Xuan Shuang takes special care of me. Who told you that?"

"Who else could it be?"

Jiang Ruyi was very smart and immediately thought of her best friend who had a bad temper, was narrow-minded, and was extremely jealous.

But Lu Ran changed the subject and whispered, "Well, actually, I also want to take care of you."

Jiang Ruyi's face suddenly turned red, and she spat softly: "Go!"

Foolish king!
