The Old Gods

Chapter 918 Insolence?

【Lord Immortal Sheep, are you there?】 Lu Ran lingered for a long time in the hiding place of the god Yue Ling, and finally chose to contact his own god.

A moment later, a deep voice entered my mind: [Where are you running wild?]

"Uh..." Lu Ran scratched his head awkwardly. "This disciple is currently at Star Moon Divine Mountain, planning to wipe out all the gods and demons within."

"Hmm." Fairy Sheep responded faintly.

Noncommittal.

Lu Ran briefly explained the situation, then said: "My divine weapon and magical artifact have just detected that Yue Ling possesses a divine weapon? Or a magical artifact?"

It was a fourth-tier magical artifact, a hook shaped like a crescent moon.

A fourth-tier magical artifact?!
Lu Ran's heart jumped: [What's it for?]

The Immortal Sheep asked, "What is the first divine technique of the Moon Spirit Sect?"

Lu Ran had, of course, done his homework thoroughly, and replied without hesitation: [New Moon - Hooking the Sky! Moon Spirit disciples can throw out a chain pieced together from moonlight, with a crescent moon at the end of the chain, which can hook the enemy.]

Following Jiang Pin's technique, the crescent moon will also coat the hooked target with a layer of silver light, freezing its physical body.

The fairy sheep gave a satisfied "hmm": "[The crescent hook in Yue Ling's hand is similar to this technique, only the target is different.]"

Lu Ran listened attentively, waiting for what would follow.

The voice transmission continued: "[It's targeting other divine weapons and magical artifacts. You can use Silver Radiance to freeze their spirits, temporarily disabling them.]"

Disarmament?

This magical artifact is really effective!

Lu Ran thought to himself, then immediately said, "Thank you for your guidance, Immortal Sheep."

The deity remained silent. After much deliberation, Lu Ran brazenly asked, "[Lord Immortal Sheep, do the Star Officials, Karmic Horses, and other gods and demons possess any divine weapons or magical artifacts?]"

The deity's tone suddenly turned icy: "Can't you investigate yourself?"

"Disciple has searched several times, but hasn't found it." Lu Ran's voice trailed off. "Slaying a god is a major event, and disciple is worried that something might have been overlooked."

Lu Ran was met with a rebuff, and just as he was about to confirm again, a deep voice sounded in his mind, its tone softening slightly:
There are not many treasures that can catch the eye of the gods.

【Oh, yes, disciple understands.】Lu Ran looked completely obedient.

"Ha." The immortal sheep sneered. "These stones, who consider themselves gods above all things, are mostly arrogant and haughty, unlike lowly humans like you."

Lu Ran: "."

Yes, I am indeed weak right now.

But my heart is unyielding, and my soul is noble, okay!
The gods would find the tiger tally you wear an eyesore.

The fairy sheep's tone gradually became teasing: "You're different. You touch everything, you want everything."

Lu Ran pursed his lips.

The black jade tiger tally is indeed of a lower grade, but it is still a priceless treasure!
How come in your mouth I sound like a garbage collector?
Lu Ran really wanted to retort!
But, well, I'm not too sure.

Forget it, let's not stoop to the level of sheep.

[These stones have been stuck high up for too long; they can't come down anymore.] The voice transmitted again, ["Pull them down, crush them, and tread them into the soil."]

Lu Ran gradually opened his eyes wider.

The sinister words echoed in my mind: "Did you hear that?"

[Disciple obeys!]

Lu Ran responded in a deep voice. The god made no further communication. He waited silently for a long time before receiving another message from Jiang Ruyi.

At Madam Ranmen's suggestion, Lu Ran went hundreds of kilometers away from the stone pillar, chose a valley, quickly cleared out the nearby demon minions, and then fell into the valley.

"Whoosh~" One stone sculpture after another appeared rapidly.

Upon closer inspection, they were all members of the third squad of the Burning Gate.

Captain: Huangfu Zhao; DPS: Yan Chou, Leng Tianxing, Wuya; Support: Leng Tianyue; Scout: Yan Shuangzi.

There were a few exceptions: Deng Yuxiang, Yu Changsheng, and Hua Tianjiang inside the gourd.

[How was it arranged?] Seeing the Nightmare's fingertips slightly lift, Lu Ran habitually blinked over.

This scene naturally caught everyone's attention.

No one reacted except for the Shadow Guardian, who pursed his lips and stared intently at his best friend's fingertips.

Deng Yuxiang transmitted her voice: "The third squad will set up an ambush here. The Evil Shadow Protector will capture the God Star Official and bring him here directly."

[Okay, okay.] Lu Ran nodded repeatedly.

Yan Shuangzi's divine evil technique, Shadow Flash, can teleport people instantly!
Lu Ran was worried that Blood Skull would destroy the Burning Sect, and similarly, his Evil Shadow Guardian could also destroy the God and Demon camp.

Did Xingyue Divine Mountain intend to ambush us?
Today I'll show you what a counter-ambush really is!
However, Shuangzi will first make me invisible, hiding behind the lingering shadows of the laurel and silver flowers.

After some conversation, Lu Ran and the Nightmare Shadow Guardians teleported several times before cautiously finding the hiding place of the Star Official.

I have to say, Yan Shuangzi is amazing now.

With one hand on Deng Yuxiang's shoulder, she could not only teleport people but also make them invisible.

[You see that evil shadow?]

"I saw it." Yan Shuangzi responded in her mind, relying on her unparalleled perception skills to see it even more clearly than Lu Ran.

[Record the teleportation location, then I'll take you to Leng Yinhua's place.]

The preparation work was somewhat tedious.

But this is absolutely necessary. With the upcoming team battle, it's never too much for Ranmen to prepare.

[Attention everyone, countdown begins!] A few minutes later, Lu Ran's voice echoed in everyone's minds. [32]

The Nightmare Shadows, the two guardians, stood side by side on a mountain peak.

Yan Shuangzi suddenly felt her palm being squeezed.

Deng Yuxiang seemed oblivious to the sect leader's countdown, and instead gently played with her palm.

Yan Shuangzi: "."

【kill! 】

"Whoosh!!" Suddenly, flames burst forth from Deng Yuxiang's body, and he thrust one hand forward with all his might.

The wind suddenly rises!

A terrifying tornado burst forth from within the distant mountainside.

The mountain collapsed, and rocks flew everywhere.

The hidden souls within were directly drawn into the tornado and torn apart frantically.

"Whoosh~" Without hesitation, Yan Shuangzi teleported directly to the location where Xing Guan was hiding. "Hmm?" Xing Guan noticed the commotion in the distance and was about to take action when his expression suddenly changed, and he abruptly turned around and retreated.

"Boom!"

The mountain shattered with a deafening roar.

The moment the star official flew backward, two dazzling stars appeared around his body, forming an "X" shape and encircling him, granting him the ability to fly.

At the same time, two other huge and dazzling stars fell from the sky.

No matter how fast he reacted or how fast he flew, he couldn't keep up with the enemy's speed.

A loud "bang!"
The invisible Yan Shuangzi gripped Xing Guan's wrist tightly with one hand.

In an instant, the enormous stellar statue vanished without a trace, and the two falling stars crashed heavily to the ground, failing to strike the enemy.

The star official only felt a blur before his eyes!
His expression immediately changed!

Before he could figure out where he was, he sensed terrifying waves of divine power surging from all directions.

The evil god Leng Tianyue stood proudly on the mountainside, and her huge stone hand summoned a total of nine enormous illusory silver toads.

Dark Toad Evil Magic: The Nine Locks of the Silver Toad!

"Cuck!"

"Croak~~~" Nine illusory silver toads surrounded the star official. They opened their mouths and stuck out tongues made of moonlight, which wrapped around the star official.

"Insolence!!" the star official shouted sharply.

A commanding voice can indeed make people lower their heads and kneel down in kowtow.

But here
Who isn't a god?
Leng Tianyue not only did not stop, but instead focused even more intently on controlling the silver toad, using its tongue to capture its prey.

"Bang!!"

The Star God's feet collapsed, and toad tongues appeared in all directions. He had nowhere to escape and could only rush upwards.

However, above the valley, rows of burning stone sculptures formed a circle, completely illuminating the night.

Thick pillars of fire shot diagonally downwards.

The star official's eyes widened suddenly: !!!
If the star official could try to dodge a pillar of fire shooting down from above at an angle, then a pillar of fire shooting down directly above his head gave him absolutely no time to react.

The stone sculpture appeared suddenly.

That stone sculpture is Yan Chou!

"Bang!!"

The thick, sea-piercing flames bombarded the head of the Star God statue from above, forcibly forcing it back.

With a series of cracking sounds, the star official panicked completely!

He tried his best to dodge, but his figure suddenly stumbled downwards, and a toad tongue made of moonlight wrapped tightly around his ankle.

Following closely behind were the second and third toad tongues.
In the blink of an eye, the star official's neck, arms, legs, wrists, and ankles were all bound.

"Presumptuous! Presumptuous!!"

The star official shouted angrily, trying to hide his panic.

He was horrified to discover that he couldn't break free from the toad's tongues with his own strength; in fact, the more he struggled, the tighter they became.

Is this a divine technique?!

Leng Tianyue looked down at the frantically struggling god and suddenly spread his five fingers.

Nine enormous phantom silver toads simultaneously swung their heads backward.

The majestic deity was stretched out, his limbs spread out, and lay flat on the bottom of the valley in a "大" shape.

Streams of flame piercing the sea bombarded the god's body even more recklessly.

"Stop! Stop it, stop!!" The star official was shocked and furious, and a star chart suddenly appeared above his head.

Star Official Sect's Ultimate Skill - Yao Guang Star Chart!
There were simply too many enemies, and the star officer was being bombarded by pillars of fire, obstructing his vision and making it impossible for him to aim at the enemy.

Once the star chart is activated, the falling stars will automatically seek out enemies.

However, this method also has a major flaw:
The light of Yao Guang vanished without a trace, and the stars fell from the sky!
The stars that fall from the sky can be any of the following: Tian Shu Po Jun Star, Tian Xuan Burning Body Star, Tian Ji Cold Marrow Star, Tian Quan Bone-Suppressing Star, and Yu Heng Startling Soul Star.

Apart from the two stars, Tian Shu Po Jun and Tian Xuan Fen Shen, the rest of the stars are mostly support-oriented.

Tianji Star is used to release icy mist that freezes enemies to the bone.

The star Tianquan (天权星) makes the target feel as if they are carrying a heavy weight, slowing down their movements;

The Jade Balance Star is used to shake the enemy's mind and soul, causing them to become confused.
In the valley filled with stone sculptures, there was a tiny, inconspicuous human woman who kept staring at the god who was tightly bound and being bombarded.

Hua Qingying suppressed her excitement, and as soon as she saw the Yao Guang Star Chart, she immediately raised one hand high.

"call!!"

A giant oil-paper umbrella, its shape obscuring the sky, flew rapidly upwards towards the falling stars.

The ultimate move of the Flower-Supporting Sect: Heavenly Net Umbrella!
Stars fell onto the umbrella, shattering one by one.

As it turns out, even divine-grade techniques, unless they are offensive star-type attacks, cannot penetrate heaven-grade defensive ultimate moves.

"Crack!!"

Suddenly, a piercing sound rang out.

The Heavenly Net Umbrella welcomed a star called Tian Shu Po Jun, and the entire star was cleverly integrated into the umbrella, causing the oil-paper umbrella that covered the sky and the moon to explode completely.

"Cuck!!"

A gigantic phantom of a silver toad rose from the ground, opening its enormous maw to devour the stars falling from the sky.

The Netherworld Toad Sect's ultimate move: Toad Devours Three Thousand Realms!

Enveloped in the toad's shadow, Leng Tianyue kept watching the god-star official roaring in pain, his heart churning with astonishing hatred.

presumptuous?

The young master has given the order: kill without mercy!

For nearly thirty years, I have endured all the humiliation, the trampling of my sect, and the enslavement of my siblings.
Let's settle this all at once!
What a pity, Lord Star Official.

My disciple will be even more audacious in the future, but you will never see it.
"Whoosh!!" Another canopy rose into the air.

The silver toad phantom then shut its mouth, digesting the stars it had devoured and transforming them into moonlight power, which it continuously supplied to Leng Tianyue.

"Ah! Stop! Stop! Ahhhhh!!"

Under the baptism of the sea flames, the star official's body shattered into pieces.

The piercing screams drifted far, far away in the night.
