The Old Gods

Chapter 821 Battle of the Sacred Mountain
"Where is it?" Lu Ran asked hurriedly.

The Lonely Night Blade Spirit rarely spoke at length: "[The other party seems to be in another world; it's difficult to judge the distance. I don't know how far it is, but I know it's right above us.]"

"Hmm." Lu Ran's expression was solemn.

He certainly hoped that the divine weapon was in the hands of the human race.

There should be human beings in the second heaven area, right?
Regardless, we must prepare for the worst! The weapon domain of the Silent Night Blade may indeed have collided with the weapon domain of some god or demon.

This is difficult to do.

To seize the realm of divine weapons, one must first possess the strength to challenge gods and demons.
Even more terrifying is that the weapon domain of the Silent Night Blade is related to "silence"!
Lu Ran clearly remembered that it was on the night of the fifteenth of the lunar month, when he was fighting against the extremely annoying demonic Golden-Winged Bat clan, that the Silent Night Blade sensed the path ahead.

Furthermore, Ji Ye Dao not only wanted the Golden-Winged Bat to be silent, but also preferred to prevent any divine power fluctuations from appearing within a certain area.

A dead silence!
If one perceives the direction in this way, isn't that the same as prohibiting the casting of spells?
No matter how powerful the myriad techniques possessed by the gods and demons, they cannot escape the level of "soft control".

The path taken by Ji Ye Dao seems to be true strong control!
The opponent was already a god, and on top of that, he had a divine weapon with a silencing effect!

How the hell do you fight this?
Putting aside combat, Lu Ran's invincible status has always been aided by techniques such as stealth and teleportation.

But against the opponent, all these techniques will be ineffective!
There is no way out.

The more Lu Ran thought about it, the heavier his heart became.

I probably can't defeat them all by myself; I need to get some help.
The only saving grace is that the enemy is in the open while we are in the dark.

The Lonely Night Blade should not have been exposed.

Because Lu Ran always activated the Greedy Wolf Divine Art: Wolf Concealment!

This method not only makes him invisible and conceals his aura, but also hides all the divine weapons and magical artifacts he carries.

[A quiet night.]

"Hmm." Ji Ye Dao resumed his aloof demeanor, even his response was a faint murmur.

Lu Ran composed himself and transmitted his thoughts: [The enemy is likely very powerful; we must be fully prepared before we challenge them.]

"Hmm." Lonely Night Blade responded again, his tone devoid of emotion.

Lu Ran drew the Silent Night Blade, running two fingers along the blade as if to soothe it, or perhaps to express his apology.

Such a divine weapon possesses the highest potential and can comprehend the world's most advanced divine weapon realm.

But after following Lu Ran, she remained frustrated and unfulfilled.

Over the years, Ji Ye Dao has watched Lu Ran's divine weapons and magical artifacts grow one by one.

It is the only one that is constantly suppressed and unable to raise its head.

Now that they finally have a clue about the enemy, Lu Ran can't give Ji Ye what it wants, so he can only make it continue to endure.
Among all of Lu Ran's divine weapons and magical artifacts, only the Cloud Sea Blade and the Silent Night Blade share a similar fate, always being suppressed to the level of first-tier divine weapons.

But Yun Haichen Qingdao did it willingly!

Yunhai Blade willingly remained at the foot of the mountain, refusing to climb. He would look up to and even protect Yunhai Sword, allowing her to stand tall atop the mountain peak.

Due to special reasons, the Cloud Sea Blade Spirit even refers to the Cloud Sea Sword Spirit as "Mother".

The Silent Night Blade is different.

He was simply suppressed; his life was truly miserable.
"Sigh," Lu Ran gripped the hilt of the Silent Night Blade, continuing to snatch away the souls of the dead, but his complex emotions were quickly disrupted by the buzzing in his brain.

Lu Ran froze instantly.

Immediately, his mood improved considerably.

Inside the sculpture park, Luo Ying Stone Sculpture is expanding its scale!

it is good!
Lu Ran licked his lips. Stirring up trouble near the sacred mountain was indeed twice as effective with half the effort.

He never stopped for a moment, racing against time to carry out his mission.

The tremor from a mere stone sculpture wouldn't cause Lu Ran to lose his fighting ability; at most, he would only be affected in some way.

Ideally, we should push Emperor Wu to the second level of the Heavenly Realm before Xiao Ruyi advances!
Deng Yuxiang, Yan Chou, Bai Rao, Luo Ying, Wu Xiao.

Three first-class false gods and two second-class false gods, a total of five powerful weapons!
He could easily handle other demonic minions. He could also break through the defenses of the Faceless Jade Venerable clan.

That's enough to be the cornerstone of a squad!

At that time, Elder Lu and Elder Bai will be brought into the team, equipped with teleporters and early warning aircraft, and supplemented by one or two scouts.

The Burning Gate Squad can now venture into the Heavenly Realm Battlefield!
Lu Ran planned to wreak havoc on the outer perimeter of the sacred mountain, using a 20-kilometer radius—the area covered by frost and snow—as the boundary.

Snatch food from the tiger's mouth!

They are competing with the Faceless Jade Venerable for resources.

Perhaps he used too much force, or for some other reason, an accident happened on the fourth day!
At that time, Lu Ran was still robbing on the outskirts. After he had robbed another soul, he was shocked to find that a large group of people had emerged from the vast snowstorm in the distance.

"Huh?" Lu Ran's expression froze.

really!

This sacred mountain, covered in flowers, is not as weak as it appears.

The powerful god hidden in the mountains is actually the henchman of a second-tier god-demon, North Wind Night Demon?!

Or perhaps these guys weren't always hiding in the sacred mountain, but were teleported here to provide support.

Hmm. It's also possible that it was just summoned by the true god or demon.

Lu Ran pondered silently and understood many things.

In any case, a combination of second-tier gods and demons has appeared! No wonder so many faceless jade venerables only wander around the perimeter and refuse to enter the Frost and Snow area.

Once inside, they'll become blind, while the North Wind-Nightmare henchmen can locate objects by sound. Wait!

What are the Night Elves holding in their hands?

Lu Ran narrowed his eyes and saw that some of the Night Demons were holding horns instead of Night Demon Blades.

The Demon Clan - Netherworld Horn?

"hiss!"

A series of hissing or shrill cries startled Lu Ran awake.

The Nightshade Clan is incredibly fast!

They leaped through the air, running wildly, with long black veils hanging from the brims of their conical hats fluttering horizontally behind them.

Damn it!
So many Deng Yuxiangs.
Lu Ran's scalp tingled a little!
Seeing the Nightshade Clan surging towards him like a tide, he immediately teleported away.

To his surprise, the arrogant Faceless Jade Venerable clan was also retreating.

Ah,
It seems that reason can overcome arrogance.

Lu Ran suddenly looked up and saw magnificent wind blades rapidly forming in the sky.

North Wind's Ultimate Skill - North Wind Divine Blade!

The ultimate skills of Beifeng-Yemei are almost identical in appearance. Why is Lu Ran so sure that this is Beifeng Divine Blade?

Because when North Wind-Nightmare uses such a powerful move, she cannot move.

The Nightshade Clan was rushing about, and only the North Wind minions they carried had the conditions to cast spells!

Tsk tsk~
Lu Ran couldn't help but sigh inwardly, what an admirable combination.

Nightshade minions drive!

The North Wind henchmen, meanwhile, sat in their vehicles and fired wildly.
"call!!"

"Whoosh!" One after another, the North Wind Divine Blades, clearly of Heavenly Rank quality, were as large as ten thousand meters!

Even as the Nightshade Clan continued their swift journey through the frost and snow, the blade from the North Wind faction had already taken shape in the sky beyond the frost and snow's reach.

Lu Ran nodded secretly; the Faceless Jade Venerable really had to run away.

No matter how tough they are, they can't withstand this damage, damn it!

Lu Ran slightly widened his eyes.

The North Wind Divine Blade was just used as an opening move. The true destructive power of the North Wind faction came from the ultimate move, North Wind Thousand Blades, which was adapted during the Sea Realm!
Countless wind blades were summoned and flew forward at lightning speed.

Densely packed, covering everything!
At the same time, the magnificent North Wind Divine Blade also fell, joining the battle.

The Faceless Jade Venerable's flight speed was indeed fast, but not as fast as Nightshade's!
The graceful night demons skillfully dodged their own wind blades while frantically chasing after the Faceless Jade Venerable.

The North Wind minions carried by Nightshade are constantly shifting, causing their attack range to rapidly expand forward!

The faceless jade vessel should indeed be evacuated decisively.

Because Lu Ran saw the broken patterns!
Countless wind blades from the ultimate move, "Northern Wind Blades," pierced the same spot on the faceless jade master's skin, quickly creating a cracked pattern.

"Whoosh~ Whoosh~"

"Whoosh!!" A piercing sound of air being torn apart filled the air.

Within a radius of twenty kilometers of the sacred mountain, frost and snow covered everything. Beyond twenty kilometers, countless wind blades replaced the frost and snow, covering the entire area!
Lu Ran fled far away early on, watching this scene from afar, feeling his heart pound with fear.

Since ascending to the Heavenly Realm, the impression that the Faceless Jade Venerable had on him was one of overwhelming power!

Lu Ran even felt that the demons and monsters were no match for him, and were all just lambs to the slaughter.

At this moment, near the sacred mountain, Lu Ran witnessed the defeat of the Faceless Jade Venerable for the first time!
From a second-tier god-demon duo, the North Wind-Night Demon minions
So powerful it's terrifying!

It has high movement speed, high attack speed, and an extremely wide and incredibly precise attack range.

It is irresistible, and even more difficult to escape.

"Gulp." Lu Ran's Adam's apple bobbed, and he retreated further and further.

With a series of "crackling" sounds, one after another, the noble and beautiful faceless jade statues were pierced and shattered, eventually exploding.

"Woo~~~"

A deep, resonant bugle call pierced the sky!
Like a tidal wave, the North Wind-Night Demon Clan, wielding magnificent giant blades and a sky full of wind blades, presented Lu Ran with a slaughter feast.

The resounding melody of the Demonic Netherworld Horn adds an epic feel to this massive war!

The North Wind-Nightmare lacks defensive techniques, and the Faceless Jade Venerable is immune to mental attacks. Therefore, this deep, resonant horn sound is not an offensive skill, but rather...
Netherworld Horn Evil Technique: Soul-Binding Horn!

This race can absorb the souls of the dead and imprison them within the horn. Thereafter, every time the Nether Horn is played, the terrifying sound waves will cruelly torment the souls within.

Imprisonment, torture, and other such methods are in line with the cruel nature of the demon race.

However, Lu Ran absolutely did not believe that the Night Demon Clan deliberately used the Soul-Binding Horn in battle just to torture the enemy.

They must have used this method to capture all the souls of the Faceless Jade Venerable and then offer them to the gods and demons in the heavens.

No!

I want to eat meat too!
At least leave me a sip of soup.
Lu Ran focused intently, aiming at a dying faceless jade spirit in an area with relatively few wind blades.

He gritted his teeth, mustered his courage, and flashed into the arena!
It's the third watch tonight.
