After Yan Shuangzi returned to the team, Lu Ran immediately went back to Holy Spirit Mountain.
Inside Tianya Residence, Lu Ran summoned the Shadow Guard Team. After giving a few instructions, he opened a landing mirror for them.
He had no idea where the Wang family uncle and nephew had been transmitted by the gods, nor did he know when they would arrive at the agreed location, so Lu Ran could only send people to wait at Qianhua Ridge.
After finishing all this, Lu Ran linked his spirit with the generals in the Sculpture Garden:
[Is everyone ready? The day after tomorrow is the fifteenth, we should present our dear gods and demons with a generous gift.]
He Yingcai felt slightly excited, knowing that this time it was her turn!
Sure enough, the Sect Leader's sound transmission came again: [Have you developed a combat strategy against Tangled Silk Shadow?]
Lu Ran's transmission was one-to-many, so the generals were naturally aware and did not respond.
Only Jiang Ruyi's faint voice sounded in Lu Ran's mind: [It's not that complicated, just step over it.]
Lu Ran: "..."
As expected of the Ran Sect's Lady, she effortlessly decided the fate of an Evil God.
Since becoming a Believer, Jiang Ruyi had undergone two major transformations.
The first time was stepping into the Becoming a God path and advancing to River Realm. Under the rules of the Divine Demon System, the gentle girl who treated the world kindly completely disappeared.
She became indifferent, becoming unreachable.
But that was her stance toward the world, when it came to Lu Ran, she remained unchanged.
The second major transformation was when she truly became a god.
She felt much more assertive, even her soft-spoken words sounded like commands.
At the very least, they were instructions.
Perhaps her tone hadn't changed, and it was all due to the influence of the Divine Position.
But regardless, her attitude toward Lu Ran hadn't changed, she once stubbornly asked him at Heaven's Edge when he would adapt.
Only this time, Lu Ran found it difficult to overcome the towering mountain that lay before him.
Sigh...
Lu Ran shook his head and sighed.
He really didn't know when he could sit with her in the small courtyard again, chatting and gazing at the stars.
If not, perhaps next time when having a date with little Ruyi, should he invite Deng Shao?
Let Deng Yutang shout the Battle Roar from afar, continuously boosting the fighting spirit?
Thinking of this, Lu Ran's expression became somewhat strange.
After all, his ears were sharp; he could hear Deng Shao's roar from a great distance, while Jiang Ruyi, not having a dog's ears, couldn't hear faraway sounds...
[Now that we have Mad Immortal, the situation is different.] Jiang Ruyi lightly said when Lu Ran had remained silent for a while.
[Oh.] Lu Ran shook his head, discarded the messy thoughts, and transmitted: [Still need to match with Purification Skill; Tangled Silk Shadow can't be underestimated, it's fully soaked with poison.]
[Yes, I'll be teamed with Xuan Shuang, Mad Immortal - Bai Heavenly General - Elder Lu will form one group, Martial Emperor with Yan Heavenly General as a single group, it's more than sufficient.]
[Four groups, is it enough?] Lu Ran hesitated a little.
[At present, our output is adequate, quality over quantity for the troops.] Jiang Ruyi explained, [Tangled Silk Shadow excels in area attacks, its range is wide with meticulous assaults.
If we have too many people, we might instead be penetrated by countless silk threads.
This is the agreed upon combat strategy jointly discussed with Nightmare, Cong Long, and Huangfu.]
[Alright.] Lu Ran no longer hesitated, energy surged in his hands, and he summoned a landing mirror.
One step forward, he entered the First Layer of Heaven.
He had already inquired from Huangfu Zhao about the position of the Divine Mountain where Tangled Silk Shadow was located, and immediately headed to the southeastern area.
In the dim light of day, Lu Ran concealed his form, each blink covering several dozen kilometers.
Soon, he reached the destination, and from afar saw a Bamboo Sea.
A long-lost feeling of freshness brushed over him, totally out of place with the brutal battlefield environment, making Lu Ran click his tongue in amazement.
The bamboo towered towering and thick, certainly not of mundane origin.
The bamboo forest from the Nine Bamboo Sect considerably limited the reckless assaults of the Faceless Jade Venerable.
Throughout the forest, bamboo leaf hats and bamboo leaf cloaks clad Bamboo Wood Demons could be seen. Compared to the foolish Bamboo Wood Demons, the female shadows emanating from them appeared much more intelligent.
Seventh-class Divine Demon, Nine Bamboo - Bamboo Wood Demon!
As is well known, the ground of the Heavenly Realm Battlefield is composed of pure energy, so how do bamboos stand firm?
The answer is that the bamboo forest grows on a swampy mud area.
From a distance, the Divine Mountain appeared refreshing and elegant, but viewed up close, it was incredibly filthy.
Thick mud covered the several kilometers surrounding the Divine Mountain.
Within the swamp, one could see slender figures hopping around, moving as if they were on solid ground.
Evil Demon · Mud Swamp Doll!
Fourth-class God · Mud Venerate's dual embodiment.
In the Da Xia Evil Demon Camp, there are four types of dolls.
Until now, Lu Ran had personally seen three types.
If the eyeless, pale-faced Ghost Talisman Doll is the most sinister, and the Sand River Doll, which can fill corpses with sand and control them, is infamous.
Then it must be said that the Mud Swamp Doll frolicking and rolling in the swamp is the most filthy.
Each small mud figure resembled a four-to-five-year-old child, lacking facial features, showing only the contour of a face.
They wore no clothes... well, they were covered in mud so didn't need them.
The dolls frolicked through the swamp like fish in water, occasionally throwing huge mud bombs, causing violent explosions.
"Boom..."
Suddenly, the ground trembled.
A surge of Mud Flow River rolled tumultuously, swaths of bamboo forests toppled, swept and shattered by the mud flow.
Yet, the Mud Swamp Dolls within were unscathed as they swam swiftly, all rushing up together, catching a Faceless Jade Venerable with relentless bombardments!
One mud bomb after another blasted the Faceless Jade Venerable deep into the mud as if trying to bury her alive, drown her in the Mud Flow River.
For a moment, Lu Ran even pitied the Faceless Jade Venerable.
This clan is pure white, untouched by dust, exuding the word "noble" all over.
But here at Bamboo Forest Divine Mountain, they are covered in mud, in a sorry state, sullied beyond recognition...
Lu Ran couldn't help but grimace.
Can't the Faceless Jade Venerable turn the terrain into jade?
Why did her ability fail in the Mud Flow River? Was it because the river was too turbulent?
"Puff!!"
The mud exploded!
Lu Ran looked over and saw a large Faceless Jade Venerable suddenly flying out of the river, grabbing four or five Mud Bog Dolls with both hands and crushing them fiercely!
As the giant hand clenched into a fist, endless mud splattered out from the seams between the fingers.
"Oh my!" Lu Ran felt his scalp tingle.
Although the dolls were crushed, the scene wasn't bloody, as there was no blood at all, just mud...
But this is too brutal!
Lu Ran was secretly grumbling, when suddenly a chain lashed down hard.
Chains are clearly meant for imprisoning people.
But the chain whipped onto the body of the Faceless Jade Venerable carried such a stunning destructive power, it left a crack on her form.
Lu Ran squinted slightly, and saw a hefty bald man with eight arms, gripping a large bamboo wood like a monkey.
Prison Sky Demon?!
His four left arms held the thick bamboo wood, while the four right arms fiercely swung chains, whipping the Faceless Jade Venerable.
Behind him, many other Prison Sky Demons wielded chains, swinging around in the forest.
Just like gorillas!
Today, Lu Ran was truly amazed.
Besides the Prison Sky Demon, there were also many enchanting women in sexy red dresses.
They stepped on green lotus leaves, flying through the forest, continually releasing thin red threads from their fingertips, attempting to control the Faceless Jade Venerable.
Even though the Jade Venerable clan had incredibly robust bodies, once touched by the red threads, their bodies would cease to obey!
The Prison Sky Demon relied on the formidable control abilities of the Tangled Silk Shadow clan, only through which they could fight the Faceless Jade Venerable back and forth.
"Whoosh~" Lu Ran gradually flew upwards into the sky.
Breaking through the thick Cloud Sea, he arrived at the Second Heaven, where the battles in the distant Divine Mountain area were even fiercer.
Alas...
Poor Tangled Silk Shadow.
Forced themselves to become an all-rounder, didn't they?
What kind of teammates have they been matched with?
Only the third-class God Demon Prisoner Demon - Prison Sky Demon seemed a bit decent!
But the fourth-class God Demon Mud Venerate - Mud Bog Doll, seventh-class God Demon Nine Bamboo - Bamboo Wood Demon... what even are these?
Why don't we just surrender!
Being this strong and enduring such humiliation?
Come to my Sculpture Garden, let's start a new round...
Lu Ran swiftly flew forward, through a gap in the sky's Cloud Sea, gazing toward the Third Heaven and quickly flashing there.
Suddenly, everything in the world went silent.
Lu Ran watched the sky above the Divine Mountain, where there were no fewer than 8 whirlwinds in the dark clouds, patiently waiting.
After seven or eight minutes, he pinpointed a whirlwind in the dark clouds and quickly flashed into it.
The already dim sky turned even darker.
Under the dim starry night, lush forests were everywhere, with alluring women in revealing red dresses everywhere to be seen.
All seductively charming, with partially exposed bosoms.
"Uh." Lu Ran diverted his gaze, mindful not to look at what wasn't proper.
Aware that Tangled Silk Shadow is an Evil Demon, yet aside from those eyes that glowed deep crimson, there was truly little difference from the women of the Human Clan.
However, in this land, Lu Ran's diverting gaze was of no use.
No matter where he looked, there was an abundance of benefits![br />]
What is it called a Demon Cave?
Ever since Lu Ran became a Believer, he's trained in many Demon Caves.
Today, he's finally seen the genuine article!
Lu Ran scratched his head, looking up along a stone pillar, swiftly flying upwards.
"A young monk goes down the mountain for alms, while the old monk has some advice~"
Lu Ran hummed a tune in his mind, diving into the upper Demon Cave, seasoned and skilled, wielding the Divine Weapon Blade, flying upside down afar.
In the field of vision, that enormous Evil God sculpture had a blurred face, yet its body lines were alluring and enticing.
With a mysterious veil and waterfall-like long hair.
And that revealing long dress made of tattered cloth fragments and interwoven threads, constantly gripping tighter the Eight Desolate Blade in Lu Ran's hand.
Clearly a stone sculpture, but Lu Ran imagined all the exquisite scenes, having just viewed plenty of benefits.
Hmm... it will be fine later.
After this battle, there are no longer attractive enchantresses in the world, only the elegant and beautiful Sister He!
Speaking of which, once the Divine General seizes the Evil God's position, equipped with the Divine Silk Thread, Mr. Cong Long wouldn't escape her grasp, would he?
Wish you luck, my dear strategist.
[Attention all combat personnel, prepare for countdown!] Lu Ran connected spiritually with multiple stone sculptures.
[3...2... kill!!]
