The Old Gods

Chapter 920 Doomsday
In pain, Yema frantically shook his head left and right, trying to shake off the tiny human who was haunting his face.

"Oh!" Lu Ran exclaimed in surprise, trying his best to stabilize his body with the help of Yanxia Ling.

Despite swaying back and forth, he didn't delay casting his spell. Streams of terrifying energy flowed from the Eight Desolations Blade into the horse's head, preparing for the subsequent explosion.

"Behave yourself!" Yan Shuangzi gripped the horse's head tightly with both hands, her sharp knuckles causing the skin on the horse's head to crack repeatedly.

Her sinister voice contained the ferocity of a greedy wolf and the brutality of a vicious dog.

Lu Ran was completely numb!

He wasn't intimidated by the frantically struggling Yema; instead, he was terrified out of his wits by his own evil shadow.

"Hissing sound~~~"

The horse neighed mournfully, its body engulfed in ever-growing flames of karma.

However, this dark red flame does not possess much destructive power. It is an extremely special auxiliary technique with effects rarely seen in the world!

For all living beings tainted by the fire of karma, the wounds will not heal as long as the flames remain burning.

Even the most powerful healing techniques cannot heal the wounds inflicted by karmic fire.

So in a sense, Yema is also "poisonous". When fighting this kind of guy, you absolutely cannot get injured, otherwise you will continuously "lose blood".

Of course, there is also a solution: purification.

Yan Shuangzi always carried Yu Changsheng with her, because what she wanted was purification.

However, Yu Changsheng's existence was not aimed at the karmic fire, but at the ear-piercing sound of chains.

"Clatter, clatter~" Fire crackled beneath the hooves of the horse, and iron chains wrapped around its calves.

Such a form is undoubtedly the result of the fusion of gods and demons in stone sculpture.

"Uh." Yan Shuangzi let out a strange guttural sound, her stone eyes widening suddenly.

The sound of iron chains rubbing together was the death-snatching sound of the Soul-Hooking Horse clan, which terrified her.

At the same time, Yu Changsheng flew over rapidly, and the pale golden fish flew into the night sky, bringing down a fine golden rain with purifying effects.

"Gala la~"

Suddenly, five enormous iron chains appeared out of thin air!
There was no casting animation at all, and the moment it appeared, it wrapped around Yan Shuangzi's neck, wrists, and ankles.

Soul-Snatching Evil Spell: Five Soul-Snatching Chains!

Yema's mournful whimpers suddenly turned into a furious roar.

Five thick chains were stretched out in five directions.

Yan Shuangzi's face was sinister, and her huge body was stretched into a "大" (big) shape, creating a terrifying and spectacular scene.

"Shu~"

Yan Shuangzi's figure flashed!
She remained seated on horseback, but the five iron chains that had been meant to dismember her were now empty, flying off in five different directions.

"Die!" Now free, Yan Shuangzi slammed her hands, like wolf claws, down on the horse's head!
Two crisp snapping sounds rang out, overlapping each other.

Attention, Ma!
It has to be said that, no matter what, a slap is still effective.
The horse's neighing abruptly stopped, and the horse froze in mid-air, its face shattered on both sides.

Yan Shuangzi squeezed hard as if she wanted to crush a horse's head, and numerous cracks spread outward from under her fingers.

At the same time, Lu Ran's eyes shone brightly, and he also squeezed out a single word through gritted teeth:

"broken!!"

First Divine Weapon Domain: Annihilation of All Directions!

Terrifying energy burst forth from the cracks in the horse's head, spreading outwards in concentric circles.

Yan Shuangzi changed her movements, grabbing the horse's mane with one hand again, and reaching into her waist with the other to draw the divine weapon, the Evil Crescent Blade, and slashing it fiercely at the horse's head.

"Crack!!"

The horse's head shattered with a crash.

The headless horse carcass plummeted straight down, its heavy body crashing into the mountain below with a deafening roar.

Yan Shuangzi stood in mid-air, bathed in golden rain, her heart churning with intense resentment as she looked down at the fallen god.

Lu Ran turned his head and looked into the distance.

On the battlefield of the Burning Gate team, a thick fog swirled around. Through the fog, Lu Ran saw the Mad Immortal Protector crawl out from underground and push aside a large number of rocks.

She was also clutching a moonlight chain in her hand, with a crescent-shaped silver hook at the end.

Fourth-tier magical artifact!

It looks like it has quite a few cracks; it'll take some repairs now.

"Leave that place, lest you accidentally swallow Yue Ling's soul!" Lu Ran immediately gave the order.

"Ugh! I know, I know!" Si Xianxian grumbled, dissatisfied. "After I ran over Yue Ling, I quickly climbed out!"

Lu Ran breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at the battlefield on the other side of the second team.

In his mind, he heard the Mad Immortal Protector's muttered words again: "[Hehe~ The Flood Dragon Flame Chariot is really useful, it's so satisfying!]"

Young master, your sister Xian'er is putting her words out there today!

If any shameless person ever dares to make you bow your head and admit your mistakes again, I'll fucking run them over!

Lu Ran: "."

[Did you hear that? With Sister Fairy here, you'll be protected from any injustice! Hahahaha!] It's clear that the Mad Immortal Protector really had a good time killing people today.

Lu Ran suddenly transmitted his voice: 【Ruyi always scolds me.】

Crazy Fairy's laughter stopped abruptly.

Thankfully, it has a stone face; if it were made of flesh and blood, its face would probably turn bright red.
Lu Ran's mind cleared up instantly. He saw that on the second battlefield, the Evil God Flash Star Demon had also shattered.

He died a very unjust death.

A mighty evil god, without even a proper resistance, was directly controlled to death by the Burning Gate Second Team.

"Shadow, follow me to the Third Battle Group." With that command, Lu Ran vanished in an instant.

The two arrived at the top of a valley hundreds of kilometers away. Looking down, they saw a thick fog swirling at the bottom of the valley, within which the Cold Star Stone sculpture was still humming and trembling. Lu Ran felt much more at ease!

The battle here is over, and Leng Tianxing has already absorbed the Star Official's soul.

good good!
No wonder they are Mother's old subordinates from Yunhai.

stable!
"Go, Shadow, take the Leng siblings to that battlefield and send them to absorb the souls of Moon Spirit and Flash Star Demon." After giving the order, Lu Ran immediately told the Leng siblings to stand still.

The evil shadows, one in each hand, carried the brother and sister away.

【Burning Gate Team Three, immediately absorb the energy at the bottom of the valley, and be quick!】Lu Ran left these words and his figure disappeared.

He returned to the high altitude where he had fought Yema, and looking down, he saw that thick fog was also billowing out from the collapsed mountain.

The headless horse met its end!
Lu Ran immediately took out the Evil Sculpture: Soul-Hooking Horse from the sculpture garden and sent it downwards.

swallow!
Swallow it all up and stride confidently onto the altar!

Lu Ran guided his stone sculpture to absorb divine souls, feeling extremely happy.

He stood high in the sky, his gaze sweeping across the battlefield, looking at the group of outstanding and imposing soldiers.

Along the way, he has indeed built a great empire and has many elite soldiers and generals under his command.

It is precisely because the sect is powerful that the Burning Sect is qualified for a group battle and has enough manpower to sever the connection between gods and demons and divide and conquer them.

"That felt great," Lu Ran murmured, when he suddenly sensed a sense of oppression coming from behind him.

He instantly went into battle mode, and when he turned his head, he saw the evil shadow protector.

"Go down there and absorb the Holy Spirit energy!" Lu Ran immediately gestured to the area beneath his feet. The dense fog covered a wide area, and the area he indicated would not interfere with the Soul-Hooking Horse's devouring of divine souls.

Yan Shuangzi pursed her lips, but ultimately said nothing.

She teleported away and stepped into the collapsed mountain peak, where she was enveloped in thick fog and completely lost her sight.

A dog's eyes are not like a bird's pupils; they cannot see through the fog.

Perhaps that's why she became a little bolder.

Suddenly, Yan Shuangzi raised her hand, the back of her hand facing up, her index finger slightly raised.

Lu Ran: ? ? ?
No! You two protectors.
Are you using your fingertips as a trap to ignite the flames?
Do you think I have to come over just because you raise a finger? Don't I have any dignity?

Yan Shuangzi remained silent and motionless, each second seeming like torture.

With each passing second, the atmosphere in the world grew more oppressive.

Suddenly, her fingertips trembled.

In the thick fog, a tiny figure landed on her fingernail.

Yan Shuangzi pursed her lips, remaining silent.

However, as she finally closed her eyes and absorbed the primordial energy, the intense resentment in her heart gradually faded away.
"Uh." Lu Ran was immersed in the holy energy, which nourished and strengthened his physical body.

Really comfortable.

This kind of immersion can even alleviate the pressure from the gods to some extent.

Unfortunately, the enjoyment won't last long.

The thought of absorbing the three stone sculptures of Leng Tianxing, Leng Tianyue, and Gouhunma into his pupils made Lu Ran's head start to ache.

Hmm. We'll have to keep Elder Lu here for a while.

If my computer crashes and I fall flat on my face, that would be a real disaster.

Lu Ran lay on his back on the fingernails of the deity, silently enjoying the comfortable moment before the storm, while in the human world of Great Xia, everything was in complete chaos!

Heavy snow area, within Sunlight City.

Inside and outside the solemn and majestic Moon Spirit Ancient City, countless people stared in disbelief as they witnessed the skin of the god Moon Spirit crack and the stones peel away inch by inch.

"no no!!"

After a brief silence, a heart-wrenching scream pierced the sky.

This scream seemed to awaken the entire world, and the ancient city was filled with cries of despair.

Some people were ashen-faced, muttering in disbelief; some jumped up and down in anger, cursing the evil spirits; and some knelt on the ground, sobbing uncontrollably.

"Did Lady Moon Spirit also die in battle?"

"A few days ago, Lord Tanlang..."

"Shut up! You fucking shut up! How could Lady Yueling possibly disappear? No, it can't be! It's not like that!"

"Lord Yueling, please don't go, please, please don't... sob sob sob." A girl covered her face with her hands, collapsed to the ground in despair, and crystal tears kept sliding down her fingers.

Next June, she will ascend the altar.

I'm about to become a human believer and be able to protect my family.

Having devoutly worshipped the Moon Spirit for over ten years, perhaps the Moon Spirit would take pity on her and accept her into the sect, but now...
The goddess Moon Spirit has fallen in battle!
Like the Greedy Wolf, it perished in the battle to annihilate the demons.

The Moon Spirit faction no longer exists in this world. Without the beautiful moonlight, who will protect this place? How can we resist the invasion of evil spirits?
"Star Lord! Lord Star Lord is dead too!"

"what?"

"What did you say? Say it again?!"

"And Lord Yema." A young man stared blankly at his phone, intending to post about the situation, but when he opened the social media app, a photo of the shattered statue of Lord Yema immediately caught his eye.

Caught off guard, he was dumbfounded.

"You're talking nonsense!" A man, his face flushed red, cursed loudly. He seemed unable to bear the information and unwilling to believe it. In his anger, he attacked his fellow countrymen.

"Stop hitting! Calm down!"

Is our world about to be destroyed?

"It's over, it's all over, they're all dead."

"It's better if it's destroyed. The world is too painful. I really hope there's no afterlife."
