The Old Gods

Chapter 848 The Surprising Appearance of Humans
In the mist, Lu Ran moved stealthily, slaughtering all the invading enemies.

Whenever an enemy ventures into the mist and is not yet within Loying's perception range, they are instantly killed by a sudden sword strike.

Lu Ran alone is worth a thousand troops!

He is nothing less than a vast army!

The eyes of the Luan Clan, the swift teleportation and stealth of the wolfhounds.

The power and fire of the Fierce Sky Sect, and the long wind trails of the North Wind Night Demon.

Since Lu Ran ascended to the Heavenly Realm, he has participated in countless battles, but this time, he has been the most ferocious in killing.

Whether it was a few individual demonic minions who came to investigate, or the swarming Faceless Jade Venerables.
Kill them all without mercy!

"Crack!"

Another piercing shattering sound rang out, and a pair of swords left long trails of wind, drawing an "X" shape on the upper body of the Faceless Jade Venerable.

The once arrogant, faceless jade vessel was shattered into four pieces amidst the crisscrossing wind marks.

Lu Ran absorbed the energy between heaven and earth with all his might, then turned his head to look down behind him.

Deng Yuxiang still held the blade in both hands, his head bowed, immersed in his own world.

She's been holding that position for about fifteen minutes now, hasn't she?

Although the Night-Slaying Greatsword could be upgraded at any time, Lu Ran was prepared to fight for another quarter of an hour.

Half an hour is a critical point.

If it's still not successful by then, it means that the Night-Slaying Blade and the Second Divine Weapon Domain are destined to be apart, and perhaps the user will never be able to advance to the third tier for the rest of their life.

Lu Ran raised his eyes slightly and looked into the distance, where he saw several faceless jade statues rushing towards him from the south.

"We can't kill them all."

Lu Ran frowned.

The advancement of the second-tier divine weapon triggered an extremely large-scale phenomenon, which the Faceless Jade Venerable could sense from a great distance.

In comparison, the demons and monsters came very, very rarely.

Lu Ran then realized that the ghost general and the black fire horse he had killed at the beginning were exceptions.

The demon minions clearly understood that the advancement of the human warriors would invite a frenzied attack from the Faceless Jade Venerable.

Coming here means facing off against a large number of faceless jade statues!
Before the rise of the Cloud Sea Sect, perhaps some lackeys would have actually come to help.

but now?
The human race has a very special position in the celestial realm.

The gods and demons have a very conflicted mentality. They want human believers to help kill foreign enemies, but they are also wary of the growth potential of human believers, fearing that they might threaten their own position.

This has led to the unique structure of the celestial realm today.

The gods and demons want humanity to remain forever at the first level of the Heavenly Realm, forever controlled and forced to serve like slaves. If you find an opportunity to break through...
Then go to hell!

The second level of the Heavenly Realm is not enough to threaten the high and mighty gods and demons.

But the fact that you made it through is serious enough!
This means that the gods and demons you worship can no longer control you! It also means that you have unparalleled talent for growth.

Who will die if you don’t die?
Honestly, if the Faceless Jade Venerable weren't so stubborn and could be a little more flexible and temporarily cease hostilities, I reckon even the demonic minions would join the battle to besiege the man in the mist.

"Whoo~"

The flames of the Blazing Heaven Sect reignited on Lu Ran's body, and his figure flashed.

Come!
war!
Your hands are beautiful, cut them off and give them to me.

Her legs are nice too, I want one too.
Both Lu Ran and the Faceless Jade Venerable have their reasons for going crazy.

He was protecting his own Great Nightmare, while the Faceless Jade Venerable wanted to seize the opportunity to annihilate the human race.

Otherwise, they themselves will be the ones killed in the future.

The advantage is that with the arrival of a large number of faceless jade deities, the demonic minions have almost disappeared, which reduces the possibility of the Burning Gate Second Team being exposed.

After all, within the Great Xia God and Demon System, there are a few sects that can see through the fog.

The downside is...
There are too many faceless jade statues!
Where did they come from?

Lu Ran cursed inwardly.

According to Huangfu Zhao, the Faceless Jade Venerable clan has no base on the sacred mountain; they come from all directions and constantly join the battle.

No one knows exactly where it came from.

"chatter"

"Hmm?" In the very center of the battlefield, Luo Ying suddenly turned her head to look southwest. The dense, floating water droplets told her that a huge greyhound had appeared there.

Lu Ran smashed a faceless jade vessel to pieces, his expression equally astonished as he turned to look.

Since the fighting began, very few demons or monsters have come to this dangerous place.

First, they lack the capacity to enter the market.

Secondly, the demons and monsters aren't too stupid; they won't seek their own demise.

But then, a guy who was both capable and incredibly stupid appeared!
Vicious dog?

Lu Ran was shocked.

"Woof! Woof woof~ woof!" The vicious dog sniffed around, clearly having caught a whiff of something, and wagged its tail excitedly, barking wildly in Deng Yuxiang's direction.

The evil magic and the raucous barking are quite annoying, causing people to feel disturbed and confused.

Fortunately, Luo Ying's Mosasaurus Sea not only has a perception effect, but can also purify the abnormal states of all living beings within the area.

This is the only way to ensure that Deng Yuxiang can continue to advance with his divine weapon.

Lu Ran couldn't let the dog run rampant, so he immediately commanded in his mind: [Adjust the Mosasaurus Sea area to Sea grade!]

【Yes.】 Luo Ying obeyed orders without question, and the Tianpin·Canglong Sea Area, with a radius of 500 meters, rapidly shrank to a radius of 100 meters.

All purification methods have the ability to purify beyond a certain level.

The area of ​​the Mosuolong Sea shrank dramatically, ensuring the protection of Deng Yuxiang while also keeping the vicious dogs away from the purification zone.

Lu Ran's figure flashed simultaneously, and the instant his blade struck down, he uttered a cry of despair:
"Mea~"

"Whoosh!" The speed at which the vicious dogs reacted was simply outrageous!

The moment Lu Ran appeared, the vicious dog almost simultaneously vanished, and the Eight Desolations Blade missed its target.

However, just as Lu Ran's blade touched the ground, a violent surge of divine power erupted before him. "Whoosh!"

The vicious dog suddenly reappeared.

Because Lu Ran appeared with a "baa" sound, the vicious dog did run away, but it was attacked and its eyes turned bloodshot, with saliva dripping from its mouth, and it came back to kill!
"Drink!" Lu Ran shouted immediately, his voice like thunder.

The vicious dog was momentarily stunned and frozen in place.

Eastern Thunder Divine Art - Thunderous Roar!
Why didn't Lu Ran use such a technique to control the vicious dog just now?

He was afraid the vicious dog would flash too fast, so he stayed outside!

Why is it being used again now?
At this moment, Lu Ran's hatred was at its peak, and the vicious dog was there to bite this little lamb to death!
"Bah!"

A flash of light, and the dog's head fell to the ground.

Lu Ran had no time to rest. He flashed again and rushed towards a faceless jade deity that had flown into the mist.

In the course of this back and forth, two faceless jade deities had already stormed in, searching for enemies.

Lu Ran arrived quickly, wiping away the knife mark as he went.

The low growl of the vicious dog clan startled Lu Ran once again.

Why are there dogs here?

Two tigers cannot share one mountain, nor can two dogs share one fog!

In this world, one fiery dog ​​like me is enough. You
"chatter!"

"Woof! Woof woof~" Several barks rang out in succession.

The vicious dogs were extremely excited, opening their blood-red mouths wide.

Luo Ying's breath hitched, and without even bothering to draw her bow and shoot an arrow, she wrapped one arm around Deng Yuxiang's waist and quickly pulled her to the side.

"Crack!"

"Crack." A row of huge, jagged canine teeth appeared out of nowhere in the spot where Deng Yuxiang had been standing, and snapped shut.

"Eeeeeee~~~"

From within the thick fog came the distinctive operatic singing of a martial arts performer, which made the vicious dog tremble with fear.

The three vicious dogs immediately shifted their target, unleashing their canines at Wu Xiao based on their approximate location.

Wu Xiao quickly retreated.

With a series of "crunching" sounds, several vicious dogs teleported away simultaneously.

Because of their similar base color, their choices are surprisingly consistent, and they tend to prefer melee combat, using their real dog mouths to tear apart humans.

"call!"

A torrent of spears rushed over.

The environment imposed too many restrictions on Yan Chou.

He can also teleport, but because he lacks perception techniques, he is extremely passive and can only rely on the magic weapon, the Black Cloud Pattern Gourd, to lock onto the enemy's location.

There is a fundamental difference between your own perception and hearing others report your location.

Especially on a battlefield where life and death can happen in an instant.

"Shu~"

The three vicious dogs teleported again.

Dogs may be silly, but they can also be incredibly strong!

Back then, the only stone sculpture that Immortal Sheep forced Lu Ran to activate was the Evil Dog Sculpture!
With the combination of evil perception, evil sensitivity, and evil shadow flash, who can truly hurt a dog?

The torrent of spears swept past, only to miss its target entirely.

The next moment, a figure suddenly appeared and said in a cold voice, "Who are you?"

In an instant, the expressions of everyone in the Burning Gate changed.

Human race?

And it was a human who appeared by teleportation?
Luo Ying's expression turned grim, as if he realized who the visitor was.

Previously, when there was only one small team in the Burning Gate, Grandpa Bai Yanhui would often give advance warnings and lead everyone to escape.

Everyone deduced that a mysterious group was constantly investigating and pursuing the Burning Gate Squad.

Now that they've encountered the vicious dog squad, everything makes sense.

No wonder everyone couldn't shake him off!

Only the vicious dog squad, with its keen sense of smell and top-notch mobility, kept its tail around the Burning Gate members and wouldn't let go.

Luo Ying had thought of these things, and so had Lu Ran.

He also realized that this matter could not be covered up!

After all, on the battlefield in the heavens, the human race and the minions of gods and demons are on the same side, so why would they attack right away?

During their relentless pursuit, these vicious dogs must have deduced something from the smallest clues.

Whether observing from afar or sniffing with their noses, the team had already determined that the Burning Gate team was utterly rebellious, even killing the minions of gods and demons!

"Disciples of Asha?" The mysterious woman dropped a hand into the floating water droplets, her voice growing even colder. "Where are the others? What gods and demons do you worship?"

"Ding!" A crisp sound suddenly rang out.

Lu Ran used his two swords to block the jade robe that was swirling towards him, and the power he had poured into his hands was enough to prevent the divine weapon from slipping from his grasp.

His face was grim, for he naturally knew that being distracted on the battlefield was a major taboo in warfare.

But given the current situation, how could he not think about it?
"Colleague!" Lu Ran shouted, "Is there some misunderstanding? Don't let the vicious dogs attack us!"
We are both human, quickly help us fight against the Faceless Jade Lord!

The woman's figure flashed, truly demonstrating her skill and daring, as she appeared from below and behind Lu Ran.

Her voice was icy cold and threatening: "Can't you understand human language? I'm asking you! What kind of believers are you all!"
"If you don't speak up, I'll kill the one who's currently advancing!"

Lu Ran desperately dodged the jade robe, his face terribly gloomy.

A deep red glint flashed across those cold, piercing eyes.
