The Old Gods

Chapter 866 War of the Gods

The afterimage of the female warrior abruptly stopped, her enormous, illusory eyes fixed on the southeast direction.

Consequently, even the utterly chaotic battlefield came to a slight halt.

"Boom!"

The earth is shaking!

The sudden, loud noise made Lu Ran's expression extremely unpleasant.

He looked up sharply and saw the majestic sacred mountain trembling, and a huge stone sculpture crashing down from the swirling dark clouds.

We stand firmly atop the sacred mountain!

Is that the original stone sculpture of Nüying?

Lu Ran's eyes widened as he saw the afterimage of Nü Ying rapidly fly upwards and merge into the stone sculpture of Nü Ying.

The real-life heroine has actually appeared?

However, if the true form of a deity standing among humans were to come here, would there still be a stone statue of Nüying in the ancient city of the Great Xia Dynasty?

Lu Ran frowned.

The battle between the gods and the external enemies has clearly been going on for a long time.

When Lu Ran lived in the human world, he had never heard of any ancient city's statues of gods suddenly disappearing or leaving.

However, the statue standing atop the sacred mountain is magnificent in size and looks exactly like the actual statue of the deity.
"Bah!"

The statue of the goddess of heroism extends a huge stone hand, grasps the blade, and slashes it horizontally with great force.

Lu Ran was very familiar with this action.

The disciples of Nüying often cut their own palms and soaked the blades with their blood, but the goddess Nüying, being a stone statue, did not have any blood flowing.

However, accompanied by a terrifying surge of energy, the knife in her hand still gleamed with a blood-red light.

"Humph!"

A majestic voice resounded through the sky.

The female warrior sculpture holds a blood-red blade, pointing towards the southeast.

"Gulp." Lu Ran's Adam's apple bobbed.

He suddenly realized that he was about to witness a war between gods!
Female Heroine VS Jade Emperor?

Can it work?
As the Faceless Jade Venerable rapidly approached, Lu Ran clearly realized that Nü Ying and the Faceless Jade Venerable were not even in the same league!

The statue of the goddess Nüying is indeed enormous, probably around 280 or 290 meters tall.

Approaching 300 meters, it can certainly be called a behemoth.

But the imposing, faceless jade statue was much larger than the statue of the goddess Nüying.
"Whoosh~~~"

The jade robe fluttered, turning the entire gloomy sky a translucent white.

The Faceless Jade Venerable's flight momentum did not slow down; on the contrary, it accelerated!
The armor on Nüying's body was now stained black, and the stone ribbon tied behind her head had turned red.

Suddenly, the statue of the goddess of heroism collapsed and leaped forward.

"Boom!"

A single jump caused the earth to shake.

Lu Ran was somewhat worried that the sacred mountain might be trampled to pieces by the statue of the goddess Nüying!
The two sides were almost touching, making the size difference even clearer.

The statue of the goddess Nüying barely reaches the chest of the faceless jade statue; the difference between the two is probably around a hundred meters.

Height does not fully represent the difference between two people; the key is the body type that matches the height!
The faceless jade vessel is completely overwhelming!

Lu Ran never expected that the god who was above all living beings would become the relatively "small" one.

Do you really want to go?
Holy crap!

Lu Ran quickly teleported away, simultaneously deactivating his perception techniques and covering his ears with his hands.

More than 20 kilometers away, the divine sculpture and the jade statue collided twice.

"Boom!!!"

The sky could fall and the earth could split open—this is nothing more than this!
Lu Ran stared blankly at the distant battlefield, his mouth agape, where terrifying energy surged wildly.

Those are... the breath of the Holy Spirit?

That's it!

Lu Ran finally understood!
Back then, when he was on Holy Spirit Mountain, he often heard loud noises coming from the high heavens. It turned out that these noises were caused by the battle between the true god and demon and the faceless jade deity.

After the loud noise, there is always a divine aura descending from the sky.

It matches up!

At the point of impact, terrifying energy exploded, scattering in all directions.

Aren't those all the breath of the Holy Spirit?

They will pass through the ground and fall to the second heaven and the first heaven. After several rounds of collection by the minions of both sides, inevitably a few will slip through the net and fall into the Holy Spirit Mountain Realm.

The human believers who struggled to survive in the mountains were scrambling for those few pitiful wisps of holy energy.

Little by little, they accumulate until death, when their souls return to the embrace of the gods, offering the spirit of the Holy Spirit to them.

Thump! Thump! Thump

A series of loud explosions rang out.

The female hero was overturned!

Her shoulder armor shattered and flew off piece by piece, and the entire statue bounced and slid backward like a stone skipping across a lake in the thick fog.

Knife!

Lu Ran suddenly had a thought.

Her shoulder armor was shattered, and the knife in her hand...
It's not broken.

Lu Ran was filled with disappointment as he saw that the giant sword was intact and still held in Nü Ying's hand.

It seems she cherishes that weapon.

When she collided head-on with the enemy, she did not slash with her knife, but instead bumped into them with her shoulder.

"Thump! Thump"

The female soldier was still flying backwards and bouncing up.

Amid a series of muffled thuds, there was a strange sound of flesh and jade being crushed.

Along her path of flying up and down, there was a short section that happened to be the defensive line!

The deity himself crashed down, instantly crushing all his minions, including the Faceless Jade Venerable's lackeys, into mincemeat and dust.

Damn it!
Lu Ran's heart was pounding wildly.

Is this the intensity of a war between gods?
Compared to the statue of the female warrior who was blown away, the faceless jade statue is in much better condition.

She was also thrown backwards for hundreds of meters. But not a single crack or mark was visible on the faceless jade vessel.

Her jade robe billowed as she steadied herself before plummeting down, her feet landing heavily on the ground.

She bent her legs and leaned forward, sliding backward and gradually slowing her momentum.

Wherever her jade-like feet passed, countless lives were crushed to death.

this.
This scene dealt a heavy blow to Lu Ran's confidence!
Whether they are minions of gods and demons or minions of the Faceless Jade Venerable, they are all genuine beings from the Heavenly Realm.

To die so humbly!

If it were Lu Ran himself, piloting the Heavenly Grade Water Flow Armor, could he withstand the bombardment of a god?
"Oh no, oh no, oh no!"

Lu Ran's face turned pale, and he kept muttering to himself.

Since becoming a believer, he has always paid special attention to the use of divine and evil magic.

However, in the highest heavens, when two top beings clashed, they actually used their bodies and strength to fight head-on.
Do the stone statues of pseudo-gods in the park have such physical strength?
To this day, Lu Ran has not yet invited the pseudo-god Shi Su to come out of the mountains, and he is very unsure of himself.

"Hmm?" Lu Ran's eyes lit up.

As she tumbled backward, Nüying finally managed to brace herself with one hand on the ground, sliding backward in a half-kneeling position.

At the same time, she suddenly swept the blade horizontally.

"call!!"

A crimson blade of light shot out rapidly from the tip of the knife.

Female Heroine Mage - Crimson Blood Blade!
"Good, good, good." Lu Ran watched as the huge blade of light was unleashed and saw the Faceless Jade Venerable decisively dodge, which put his mind at ease.

Just hide!
It's good that you're afraid!

Lu Ran was genuinely worried. The stone bodies of the Faceless Jade Venerable and all the gods and demons were so powerful that they were not afraid of the output of divine and evil magic.

Of course, the crimson blade light unleashed by the female warrior statue was not of the highest quality.

It is a higher level, one that only the true gods and demons are qualified to use.

Hmm, let's just call it "divine" for now!

After thinking this through, Lu Ran became worried again. What if the stone sculpture of the true form of the god and demon was only afraid of divine-grade techniques and not heaven-grade techniques?

He immediately stopped thinking about these things.

Lu Ran was astonished to find that the Faceless Jade Venerable dodged to the side and stepped onto the defensive line.

It was obviously intentional.

The faceless jade deity trampled a large number of minions to death and rapidly absorbed their souls.

At the same time, countless faceless jade deities, like moths to a flame, frantically rushed towards the towering and earth-shaking jade deity's main body, and then turned into endless jade powder, merging into the jade deity's body.

Are we going to fight and harvest resources at the same time?

"Whoosh! Whoosh!!"

A series of blood-red blade beams were unleashed as Nüying charged forward, heading straight for the Faceless Jade Venerable.

Despite having ranged attack skills and facing a significantly stronger opponent, the female warrior remained fixated on close-quarters combat.

Why is this?

Lu Ran pondered the reason behind it, and seeing that the two sides were about to clash again, he immediately opened his Eyes of Death.

So many lost souls!

Especially along the path where the faceless jade vessel slid backward, one after another illusory soul entities overlapped.

It's all double-image.
"Boom!"

Nu Ying and Yu Zun clashed again, their primordial energy bursting forth everywhere.

The female soldier was forced to retreat once again.

The faceless jade vessel slid backwards again.

Lu Ran licked his lips, spotted an area teeming with dead souls, made a snap decision, and teleported directly into the area!

【Sister Si!】

"Ah? Young Master, what...what's wrong?" Si Xianxian was startled.

This stern tone dates back several years.

Since she became Lu Ran's disciple, and he completely controlled her body and mind, he has become very gentle with her and no longer scolds her.

And at this time.
"Eat! Eat up! Hurry up, eat!!" Lu Ran shouted anxiously.

【Oh!】 Si Xianxian was bewildered and hurriedly absorbed the souls of the dead.

Scared me!

If you're going to eat, then eat. Why are you yelling so loudly?
I told you, I haven't been to Madam's bed lately. Wow! Why are there so many ghosts?
Make a fortune, make a fortune!

[Young Master, did you blow up the gods' lair? Did you knock down the sacred mountain?]

[Stop talking nonsense! Eating can't shut you up.] Lu Ran stopped transmitting his voice and his figure flashed.

"Shu~"

Just as Lu Ran left, the Faceless Jade Venerable flew past.

Blocking out the sky!

Like a towering mountain, it crushed over us.

That's fucking exciting!

Lu Ran's heart was in his throat. He turned to look at the battlefield and adjusted his gaze slightly.

Following the direction in which the statue of the goddess of heroines flew backward, Lu Ran saw a stone statue flying rapidly towards him from a greater distance.

First-class god Wu Sheng?

No, it wasn't just a martial arts actor!
On the body of the martial arts deity statue, there is also a blurred figure.

First-class Evil God - Yin Hua Dan!

Good guy!
A pair of gods and demons arrived to provide support?

Lu Ran turned to look at the battlefield. The female god was indeed brave, but she was alone and obviously no match for the faceless jade deity.

Thanks to the Faceless Jade Venerable's preference for reaping resources!
Otherwise, the statues of the Heroine would likely suffer repeated defeats.

It seems that it was precisely because the gods and demons would come to the rescue so quickly that the heroine launched such a fierce attack to delay the enemy, allowing the faceless jade deity to quickly reap the souls of the dead.
No!

You can't have it all.

My crazy fairy is still waiting to advance to the third level of the Heavenly Realm!

Lu Ran opened his dog-like eyes wide, quickly gathering battlefield information, and then suddenly flashed them!
I'd like some monthly votes.
