God?

Divine·Chenghua!

Such a colossal phantom must be the remnant shadow of the Divine Demon.

Compared to the blurred stone sculpture, the remnant shadow of the Divine Demon, though in a phantom state, is much more exquisite.

Lord Chenghua can be described as "Earth-shaking," wearing a long dress full of ancient charm, holding an oil-paper umbrella, as if gazing into the distance.

"Gulp." Lu Ran's Adam's apple moved slightly.

Unexpectedly, the first Divine Demon remnant shadow he saw would be the Third-class God·Chenghua.

No!

Lu Ran suddenly remembered that in Beifeng City, Divine·Beifeng had also descended personally, and its enormous remnant shadow had also stood tall, causing all beings to tremble.

In that case...

The first Divine Demon remnant shadow Lu Ran saw was neither Chenghua nor Beifeng.

Not even Immortal Sheep.

But the Evil God·Yan Paper Man who first extended a hand to him on the God Worship Platform!

Yan Paper...

Thinking of this Evil God, Lu Ran couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

He was never clear why Yan Paper favored him so much.

Additionally: back when Lu Ran was still weak, Lord Immortal Sheep had provided a way, combining the Immortal Sheep Divine Technique·Body of Substitute with the Vermilion Paper Evil Technique·Paper Mache.

When attacked by an enemy, try to achieve the effect of "self unharmed, enemy retaliated against."

But since Lu Ran entered Holy Spirit Mountain, he had little contact with Immortal Sheep and couldn't perform the Divine Technique·Body of Substitute.

The matter of skill combination was set aside.

Now, years have passed, Lu Ran ascended to the Heavenly Realm, but his situation hasn't changed.

He didn't approach the Divine Mountain, and still had weak contact with Divine·Immortal Sheep, unable to summon the scapegoat to his body.

Looking back at his journey, Lu Ran not only didn't have the conditions for casting spells, but as a mouse hiding in dark sewers, he shouldn't have summoned Immortal Sheep's remnant shadow so openly.

Now the situation has changed!

The first target of the Ran Sect, the Evil God·Ghost Talisman Doll stone sculpture, naturally lies in the deepest part of the Human World Da Xia·Demon Cave.

Lu Ran is certain that in the Demon Cave, he can communicate with Lord Immortal Sheep unimpeded, as back in Evil Dog Village during his training and growth, Immortal Sheep had guided him closely.

So before slaying the god, shouldn't he return to the Human World and delve deep into research?

The Heavenly Grade·Divine Technique Evil Technique is already the highest grade skill the Human Clan can perform.

The scapegoat and the Paper Mache Man should be able to combine, right?

Hmm... still need to prepare for the worst.

If still impossible, then he can only seize a Divine Position, qualifying to perform a skill of a higher grade, and then attempt their combination.

No!

Other Ran Sect warriors can seize Divine Positions from the Divine Demons.

It seems Lu Ran's Divine Position is with Lord Immortal Sheep?

This?

Lord Immortal Sheep painstakingly planted a seed early in Lu Ran's heart, giving him a beautiful vision, an almost invincible combined skill...

Urging him to grow quickly, wielding a butcher's knife, to stand before the Immortal Sheep stone sculpture?

Lu Ran slightly widened his eyes.

In his musings, the remnant shadow of the deity in the Highest Heaven suddenly moved.

No one knows what Chenghua saw, as her garments fluttered, abruptly flying away, Lu Ran chased after her silhouette, his view again obscured by the real sky's cloud sea.

The remnant shadow of the deity left, revealing the Divine Mountain connecting the Third Heaven even more clearly in his view.

In the Highest Heaven, the majestic Divine Mountain finally had an end.

There was a peak!

From Lu Ran's position, he could vaguely see the sharp peak at the edge of the mountain, thrusting into a vortex.

A swirling vortex of dark clouds!

Lu Ran could see the constantly flowing dark clouds, with a formidable momentum, yet the content was unknown within.

"Rustle, rustle..."

Drizzling rain.

The cold raindrops immediately woke him up.

To better observe, unknowingly, Lu Ran had been flying forward, entering the rain of the Master of Rain's sect.

"Buzz~" The Silent Night Blade gently vibrated.

In the Divine Mountain region, it sensed the presence of a Divine Weapon from the other side.

[Here it comes.] At the same time, a low and hoarse voice echoed in Lu Ran's mind.

[Lord Immortal Sheep... Please wait! I am in the light rain of the Master of Rain's sect, detectable, the disciple will switch to another Divine Mountain for communications with you.]

[Master of Rain? Hmph.] In Immortal Sheep's sneer, there was full of disdain.

Lu Ran: "..."

The rain of the Master of Rain's sect, the perception effect is indeed beyond words.

It can specifically be equated to the War Horn Divine Skill·Echo Horn.

Whenever Hall Master Jing Hong sounded the horn, everything within the range of the sound waves gave her corresponding feedback, allowing her to construct a map in her mind.

The detection range of the Echo Horn is extensive, yet its flaw is also fatal—vague!

Unless a large army is gathered somewhere, Jing Hong cannot detect anything.

This kind of skill, after upgrading in grade, would only increase the probing range, not deepen the fineness of perception.

The sixth-class god, the War Horn sect's perception is already this poor, let alone the eighth-class god, the Master of Rain's sect...

This rain's greater role should be helping Yan Qing's Sea Merfolk lackeys roam freely in the air.

[Lord Immortal Sheep, is there anything you want to guide the disciple on?] Lu Ran naturally understood Immortal Sheep's meaning, so he stood at the edge of the rain screen and asked via sound transmission.

[How prepared are you?]

[Now, under this disciple's command, there are three warriors of the Heavenly Realm·Third Level, besides Deng Yuxiang and Huangfu Zhao mentioned last time, there's now an addition of Jiang Ruyi.]

Lu Ran paused, then continued: [As you know, she is my fiancée, inheriting the Jade Talisman-Ghost Talisman Doll stone sculpture.]

[Hmm.] Immortal Sheep responded faintly.

[Currently, the disciple is training Si Xianxian, who inherits the Heavenly God Sculpture of Lie Tian, and she will be our strong offensive point for slaying the god!]

[Hmm.] The same one-word response, but the tone carried slightly more weight.

It wasn't difficult to hear that Lord Immortal Sheep somewhat acknowledged Lu Ran's approach.

[After your last suggestion, the disciple changed the primary target, planning to start with the Ghost Talisman Doll before aiming for the Angry Sea Flame Flood Dragon.]

[Oh?]

Upon hearing this, Lu Ran felt quite uneasy.

Majestic Heaven Realm, much like a student waiting for exam results, eagerly awaited the teacher's evaluation.

[Ghost Talisman...Hmm, it's indeed a good entry point.]

Lu Ran breathed a sigh of relief and even showed a slight smile: [Right, right?]

Immortal Sheep shifted the tone: [Have you ever seen the real Ghost Talisman in person?]

[Ah? This disciple has seen the stone sculptures of this clan in the Sculpture Garden, it's a little boy wearing a tiger-skin hat and pasted with Yellow Paper Talisman.]

Immortal Sheep coldly said: [Is that the real Evil God?]

Lu Ran opened his mouth but dared not speak.

The stone sculptures in the garden are all fake gods...

Immortal Sheep snorted coldly: [In the garden, the stone sculpture is a young boy, but why does the Ghost Talisman Clan, which invades on the night of the fifteenth, have both a boy and girl?]

Lu Ran widened his eyes!

What does that mean?

The real Evil God·Ghost Talisman Doll is two stone sculptures?

A boy and girl pair?

Oh crap?!

[Two?] Lu Ran was a bit bewildered.

The sound transmission descended again, the pace slowed somewhat, as if to ensure Lu Ran could understand and remember clearly: [They exist by holding hands, complete through each other, can use each other's skill but also have casting tendencies.

The boy specializes in thunder and blood explosion, the girl prefers quicksand and frost.

The boy is more likely to use Ghost Talisman Formation and Enchantment Formation, the girl habitually uses Cold Ice Flowing Sand Array.]

[Ah.] Lu Ran replied dumbly.

Jade Talisman...really ruthless!

Separating God Demon is not enough, dividing the evil demon into two Evil Sculptures further.

Doing this is to facilitate the control of the evil demon side or prepare in advance, making it easier to break and recover abilities one day?

Lu Ran wasn't sure if his idea was correct.

For all gods, he always speculates with maximum malice.

[Then, do you still want to consider the Ghost Talisman Doll as the first target for elimination?] The voice carried a hint of sarcasm.

Lu Ran pondered for a while, then immediately said: [Still!]

[Oh?]

Lu Ran's expression was serious, stating the fundamental plan: [This clan's mind is shallow, the key is they have a voidification feature, potentially allowing us a huge loophole!

After a big wind passes, everything disappears in smoke.]

Immortal Sheep was silent, waiting for further words.

Lu Ran considered: [The two evil sculptures of the boy and girl are indeed more dangerous, but thinking from another perspective, it's also an excellent opportunity! Giving us the possibility to defeat them individually.]

No matter if Jade Talisman is preparing for the "divide and conquer" day, Lu Ran plans to gladly accept it!

Lu Ran suddenly asked: [You said the boy and girl exist by holding hands, complete through each other, so does that mean they can be separated?]

[A promising student.] The brief four words carried a hint of gratified meaning.

Lu Ran's eyes shone brightly!

He eagerly said: [Separated and incomplete...then they can't use each other's techniques, right?

Or the divine position is incomplete, if they use evil techniques, they will drop to Heavenly Grade?!]

[Hehe.] A cold laugh penetrated the mind, [Go and try it, won't you know then?]

Lu Ran: "..."

He wasn't sure if this counted as some level of confirmation or if Lord Immortal Sheep also didn't know the deeper situation.

Anyway, the concept of "divide and conquer" is approved by Immortal Sheep.

[Cultivate your Lie Tian.] The voice transmission descended further, getting quieter.

[Wait, Lord Immortal Sheep!] Lu Ran quickly asked, [The disciple still doesn't understand one thing, I saw at the mountain peak, it pierced into a dark cloud whirlpool, what's behind it?]

[Go to the next level to collect information yourself.] The voice transmission became cold again.

Lu Ran looked troubled: [This disciple is only at Heaven Realm·Second Level, it will take a long time to cultivate to the Third Level.]

[Foolish.]

[Uh.] Lu Ran shrank his neck.

Just now, they said I was a promising student!

Turning face this quickly.

What a cold and merciless sheep...

Lord Immortal Sheep's voice transmission became even colder: [What's blocking you as you ascend?]

[Sky Cloud Sea...] Lu Ran's voice transmission paused.

Indeed, Cloud Sea!

Within twenty kilometers of Divine Mountain, the Cloud Sea is thin.

Near the mountain body area, there's no Cloud Sea at all!

This means nothing will obstruct Lu Ran from ascending to the Third Heaven, exploring the Upper Realm.

[Then...does the disciple have the qualification to enter the whirlpool for exploration?] Lu Ran cautiously asked.

[Cultivate Lie Tian, then discuss the future.]

[The disciple understands, thank you Lord Immortal Sheep for the guidance.] Lu Ran folded his hands together, expressing gratitude.

In his mind, only the humming of Xian Mo's stone sculpture remained.

No more divine voice transmission.

Lu Ran waited for a moment, confirming Lord Immortal Sheep's departure, and then retreated from the rain curtain.

Immediately, he fixed his gaze.

He saw a woman holding an umbrella flying close to the mountain body towards the Highest Heaven!

It was the gentle woman Lu Ran previously followed, she...what is her true identity?
