The Old Gods

Chapter 928 Great Fortune
In a mass grave hundreds of kilometers away from the sacred mountain and stone pillar.

Using the Mountain Lord's Divine Technique, Lu Ran's physical body was hidden underground, while his consciousness had already entered the sculpture park.

"That's the situation. What are your thoughts?" Lu Ran stood on Jiang Ruyi's fingertips, looking at the group of soldiers in front of him.

Yu Changsheng spoke first: "Sect Master! There are a large number of gods and demons this time. It may be difficult to deal with them all at once. I think we should adjust our battle strategy."

"Oh?" Lu Ran raised an eyebrow slightly. "Please elaborate, sir."

Yu Changsheng pondered, "We can select a few gods to distract them temporarily, keeping them away from the main battle. Then we can select a few more gods to focus on killing."

"Okay, sure." Lu Ran nodded gently.

Jiang Ruyi said, "The lantern must be dealt with first. Its support capabilities are too strong. As long as it is on the battlefield, the entire God and Demon team will have the most advanced defense system."

"Yes, yes, yes!" Lu Ran nodded repeatedly. "At the very first moment of battle, let the Shadow Guardian teleport away with the lanterns."

"Yes," Yan Shuangzi replied in a deep voice.

Lu Ran added, "The Lantern Sect's ultimate move is quite powerful. Even if we are drawn into the encirclement, our soldiers could still suffer casualties."

Yu Changsheng suggested, "We can have the Evil Shadow Protector participate in the entire battle. Even if the soldiers are shrouded in the light of the lanterns, the Evil Shadow can lead them to escape immediately."

Lu Ran nodded secretly; this was indeed a good method.

Jiang Ruyi offered her decision: "Let the Mad Immortal Protector lie in ambush alone. The Evil Shadow can take care of her the whole time to ensure that nothing goes wrong."

“No problem!” Si Xianxian immediately stepped forward, her face full of excitement. “I guarantee I’ll blast the lantern to pieces and blast out its soul, and give it to Xiao Yuanxi as a divine gift.”

"Okay!" Lu Ran was also stirred by Sister Xian'er's rude words.

Yu Changsheng then said, "The two protectors can hurry up and kill their way back to the main battlefield to provide support as soon as possible."

"Absolutely!" Sister Xian'er's accent was very distinctive.

“Yes,” the shadowy figure replied in a deep voice.

"What about Bihe? She's a rather troublesome deity." Lu Ran didn't waste any time and continued to advance the meeting.

Everyone knows how threatening those thin lotus root fibers are.

Yu Changsheng suggested, "Bihe is well-balanced in offense and defense and does not rely on mental attacks. I think we can temporarily list Bihe as a distraction target and have the soldiers take her away from the battle."

As soon as the strategist finished speaking, Wu Xiao stepped out.

In an instant, everyone looked over and saw that Emperor Wu Tian stopped and knelt down in a gesture of respect towards the sect leader and his wife.

Although he didn't speak, he was undoubtedly asking for battle!
The martial arts school is indeed not afraid of lotus root silk. In fact, most techniques in the world are completely unrelated to the clothing of a great martial arts performer.

As soon as Wu Xiao volunteered, four more people stepped forward and offered their services.

Huangfu Zhao, Yan Chou, Yin Yan, Tu Feng!
The former can move at high speed, while the latter three can move instantly. Yin Yan and Tu Feng can also become invisible because they worship the true god, Evil Shadow.

These four individuals possess exceptional survival skills and are not afraid of even the thinnest lotus root threads.

Clearly, the players are adapting to the situation quickly.

In previous battles against gods and demons, it was always the higher-ups of the Burning Gate who discussed battle plans and issued orders to the commanders.

However, this time the situation was special, and the battlefield situation had changed, so Lu Ran went directly into the park to discuss it with everyone.

Lu Ran pondered for a moment and said, "Martial Emperor, Yin Tianjiang, and Tu Tianjiang, the three of you go and distract Bihe, keeping her as far away from the battle as possible."

Jiang Ruyi added, "Do not be greedy for quick success and act rashly. Focus on harassment and wait for the main force to arrive as reinforcements."

The trio readily agreed.

Lu Ran was completely focused and said directly, "Xiao Qiang is also very mobile, so it won't be easy to kill him, Chou Nu."

"Little Lord!"

Lu Ran ordered, "You fake gun wretch, go distract little gun wretch and use the Piercing Sea Flame to blast him aside, so he doesn't get in the way."

"Yes!" Yan Chou replied loudly.

Lu Ran nodded in satisfaction: "The Cloud Mace is powerful and extremely threatening, yet quite clumsy. It can be considered a key target for elimination, everyone."

As Lu Ran spoke, the Leng siblings stepped forward.

Leng Tianxing bowed respectfully: "Young Master, Yun Jian's Cloud Mist Armor has quite impressive defensive capabilities. Leave the armor-piercing and enemy-slaying to me."

Leng Tianyue: "Young Master, my brother and I will quickly kill this god and return to provide support as soon as possible."

Lu Ran nodded: "Lord Immortal Sheep specifically reminded you that the double maces in Yun Jian's hands are a pair of fourth-tier divine weapons. You should pay special attention and make good use of the magic weapon, Crescent Hook."

"Yes!"

Back then, Leng Tianyue gifted Lu Ran the third-tier magic artifact, the Misty Cloud Silk.

After the last battle, Lu Ran gifted Leng Tianyue the fourth-tier magic weapon, the Crescent Hook, which he had captured.

Leng Tianyue was overjoyed, but felt that this magical artifact was too valuable and was hesitant to accept it.

The difference between the third and fourth tiers may seem to be only one level, but in reality, they are worlds apart!
The Leng family has already received too many favors from Lu Ran, inheriting the stone sculpture and becoming a god. Leng Tianyue really can't accept anything more.

However, Lu Ran persisted!

The Moon Spirit Sect's divine technique, "New Moon Hooking the Sky," is almost identical in appearance to the Crescent Moon Hook. In Leng Tianyue's hands, this magical artifact is naturally extremely deceptive.

Lu Ran continued, "The Demon Prisoner's offense and defense should not be underestimated. He also has a fourth-tier magic weapon, the Demon Prisoner Lock, which is specifically designed to bind gods and demons!"

Before the battle between the Leng siblings ends, the soldiers involved in the Demon Prisoner's affair must be extremely careful.

Behind him, a cold voice came: "The Demon Prisoner has no defensive techniques, you can kill it directly."

"Ok?"

Jiang Ruyi said calmly, "Let Huangfu Tian take your evil god servants to control the imprisoned demon. I, Xuan Shuang, and Nightmare will launch a strong attack."

Lu Ran pondered for a long time, then nodded: "Okay, what's missing again?"

The main targets are the Lantern, the Demon Prisoner, and the Cloud Mace.

The harassment implicated Bihe and Xiaoqiang.

There are five in total. But I remember there were six gods and demons.

Yu Changsheng laughed: "Sect Master, you've forgotten the bait the gods and demons threw out." Oh, right!
Lu Ran patted his forehead: "There's still the black lantern left, I'll take care of it. Okay~"

Suddenly, Lady Xianmo flicked her fingertips, causing Lu Ran to rise and fall in waves.

Jiang Ruyi commanded: "Elder Lu, take Cai Shenjiang and Bai Tianjiang to support the sect leader. Defeat them quickly and come to their aid as soon as possible!"
Remember to activate the purification spell; the Black Lantern Clan is quite well-controlled.

"Yes."

Lu Ran: "."

Do you underestimate me?

It's just a square lantern, and the key thing is that it's not very intelligent. I can't even handle it?

A few minutes later, inside the eerie black cemetery.

The invisible figure and sculpture stealthily made their way to the north of the sacred mountain stone pillar, three kilometers away.

"Are you ready, Shadow?" Lu Ran asked telepathically.

【Hmm.】 The evil shadow knelt on the ground, leaning forward, and stretched out its long arm, the huge stone hand getting infinitely close to Lord Lantern.

That's incredibly skillful and daring!

Just a little further forward, Yan Shuangzi's fingers touched the back of the lantern!

Poor Lord Lantern, still guarding the inescapable net he laid, thinking of burying the enemy in the Black Graveyard.

Little did they know, the sinister hand had already reached out.
[Do it!] Lu Ran gave the order in his mind.

There was a crisp sound of "pop"!
The evil shadow grabbed the lantern by the back of its neck and carried it away like a kitten or puppy, disappearing in a flash.

The lantern trembled!
I was almost blinded by the light.

Si Xianxian, who had been waiting for a long time, burst into flames the moment she heard the sect leader's command, illuminating a patch of sky.

Sure enough, the evil shadow has arrived!
What else is there to say?
Just do it!

Si Xianxian pushed forward with one hand, unleashing a fierce sea-piercing flame that slammed straight into Hua Deng's face.

"Stop!" Flower Lantern was both shocked and furious. Instantly, an eight-sided lantern appeared in her hand, its dazzling golden-red light enveloping her.

"Crack!"

With a single strike, the golden-red defensive shield was shattered.

The Mad Immortal Guardian's offensive techniques are no ordinary divine items!

Her body burns with the flames of slaughter that transcends her level.

It might take some time to bombard the divine and evil forms, but it's effective against divine defensive techniques.
It breaks at the slightest touch!
"You bastard! I won't~ I won't!" Si Xianxian cursed, pushing a pillar of fire forward with her right hand and swinging her hammer wildly with her left.

Yan Shuangzi's eyes were sharp, and her hands were like sharp wolf claws. Her right hand gripped the lantern's neck tightly, as if she wanted to crush it, while her left hand grabbed the lantern's back and delivered a "black tiger plucks the heart" move.

"Crack!"

The extremely sharp claws tore streaks across the back of the lantern.

The lantern is under attack from all sides!

Her front body was already mangled, so she couldn't worry about the scoundrels causing trouble from behind.

"call!!"

Suddenly, countless lanterns scattered forward.

Each of the eight lanterns emits beams of golden-red energy in all directions, connecting them to one another.

In an instant, hundreds and thousands of lanterns wove together a defensive net, attempting to withstand the impact of the pillar of fire.

Lantern Magic Technique: Fire Cage Formation!

"Crack!!"

The flames pierced the sea with unstoppable force, shattering the lanterns' proud defensive net.

"Ah!!" the lantern screamed, completely losing its usual dignified elegance.

As she struggled desperately, she suddenly raised one hand.

In an instant, a giant eight-sided lantern appeared, its dazzling light enveloping Si Xianxian.

"Hmm?" Si Xianxian looked up and casually flicked several hammer shadows.

Strangely, as the burning hammer shadow entered the beam's range, it rapidly shrank.

"Oh dear!" Si Xianxian hurriedly dodged, even bringing out her celestial chariot.

The Mad Immortal moved at high speed, but the light shone even faster, already enveloping her body.

With each astonishing suction force, Si Xianxian shrank continuously, unable to escape.

"Evil Shadow? Evil. Hmm." Before Si Xianxian could finish speaking, she was grabbed by the back of the neck by the Evil Shadow Protector and teleported behind the lantern.

At this moment, both gods were stunned.

Hua Deng's beautiful eyes widened suddenly as she sensed the terrifying aura behind her!

Mad Immortal had just recovered from being controlled and returned to his original size, still shaken.

"Mad Immortal?" Yan Shuangzi frowned slightly, clearly displeased.

"Oh!" Si Xianxian quickly reacted and slammed into the back of the lantern.

"Boom!"

Flames exploded, and shockwaves spread outwards.

"Ah!!" Si Xianxian shouted angrily, driving her fiercely burning fairy chariot, crushing the lanterns into the ground.

damn thing!
You dare turn me into a toy car?
Today I'll show you what real luck is!
