Summit of the Old Gods

Chapter 171: 154-day great opportunity?


Lu Ran truly widened his horizons!

Not every divine being is as magnanimous as Lord Beifeng.

After all, creating the Divine Ruins requires an immense amount of Qi.

Not to mention a visitor like Lu Ran, even the North Wind Believers living in the city have to wait for a decade or two to witness the birth of Divine Ruins!

Some devotees to other gods may never see a trace of Divine Ruins in their lifetime,

Like those Devine·Spiritual Sign Believers.

With Devine·Spiritual Sign voraciously hoarding the Power of Faith...

Lu Ran doesn't believe from the bottom of his heart that Spiritual Sign would bestow such a blessing upon his disciples.

"Ha! Ha! Ha!"

"Ha! Ha! Ha!" The uniform shouts were majestic and influential, stirring a fervor within those who heard them!

Lu Ran's eyes narrowed as he gazed toward the Inner City.

Was this cheering?

In the next moment, from among the more than ten North Wind Believers standing in the sky, a young man in pure white cape flew out.

He wielded the Yanyue Blade and charged directly at the entrance to the Divine Ruins!

Such a small being seemed like an ant shaking a large tree, using a similarly small blade to chop at the grand doors of a palace.

"Thud!"

A dull sound, earthshaking!

"Ugh..." The young man was blown back, even spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood.

It seemed he must have been injured by the shock.

The trembling sound of the gate could even cause earache to Lu Ran, who was far in the Outer City!

One could imagine the extent of the blow that the young man had received.

No sooner had the young man been repelled than another young man made his move.

He wielded a Horse-cutting Great Saber and rushed towards the gate with urgency.

"Thud!"

Another violent burst of trembling echoed.

This young man was also shaken and flew back, even losing his grip on the saber.

"Ha! Ha! Ha!"

"Ha! Ha! Ha!" The cheering from inside the city continued, growing more passionate.

More than ten North Wind Believers, arrayed high above, each charged at the gates of the Divine Ruins.

One after another, they were gravely injured, spitting blood, and returned without success.

"Yan..." Lu Ran caught sight of a familiar figure.

It was Yan Shuangzi's turn!

She showed no cowardice, nor the slightest hesitation, holding a Horse-cutting Great Saber identical to Deng Yuxiang's and struck at the gate.

"She's really courting death."

Lu Ran pursed his lips as Yan Shuangzi was also harshly repelled.

What was behind the palace doors?

A Divine Weapon?

A trace of sword intent?

Or perhaps a strand of the pure "Qi" unique to the North Wind Blade?

Whatever it was, Divine·Beifeng had placed the Divine Ruins here, waiting for his disciples to seek it.

Yet, the disciples couldn't even open the gates...

"Thud!"

"Thud!"

Amidst the echoing sounds, Lu Ran watched the North Wind Believers march forth one after the other.

The more he watched, the more apprehensive he became.

His understanding of the divine beings was still too shallow.

Just the descent of a Divine Ruin from Divine·Beifeng had reached such an intensity.

In the future, was he to vie for the right to live against such beings?

"Lu Ran?"

The room door swung open, and Si Xianxian from next door rushed in.

"What's up?" Lu Ran replied distractedly, his eyes glued to the sky.

"This time, we've really hit the jackpot to be able to witness the Divine Ruins!" Si Xianxian said excitedly.

She looked around, located two sabers on the table, swiftly picked them up, and approached Lu Ran.

"What for?" Lu Ran took the two sabers with a puzzled look at Si Xianxian.

Who would have thought, Si Xianxian said, "I don't know either, who knows what you perceived!

This is the Divine Ruins of the Beifeng Sect!

Just hold on to the sabers, who knows if you might understand something?"

Lu Ran was bemused.

Sister Xian'er plays with hammers and knows nothing about this.

And Sister Xian'er is ill, not in the best state of mind.

But Sister Xian'er cares for me!

"Look at the Divine Ruins, not at me!" Si Xianxian reached out and gently patted Lu Ran's cheek, "Look, perceive!"

Lu Ran: "..."

What was there for me to perceive!

How to violently dismantle a door like the North Wind Believers?

What does this have to do with swords!

"Have you perceived it?" Si Xianxian gazed out at the Divine Ruins and couldn't help but ask after a while.

"I have."

"Ah?" Si Xianxian's face brightened, "What did you perceive?"

Lu Ran spoke poignantly: "Tearing down doors and breaking walls, the North Wind Believers really can't handle it.

They should have the Fierce Heavenly believers take hammers to it..."

Si Xianxian: ???

"You!" Si Xianxian almost burst out laughing, "That's what you perceived?"

Lu Ran: "Tell me if it makes sense!"

"Uh..." Si Xianxian scratched her head.

Seems right though!

"Good Lord." Another exclamation from Lu Ran.

In his view, Yan Shuangzi was repelled yet again.

Her snow-white cape was already soaked in blood, and she looked utterly miserable.

She had clearly sustained grave injuries and was barely able to stand.

The winds that swirled at her feet seemed as if they could dissipate at any moment.

"Thud!"

Another earthshaking dull sound.

Finally, one of the North Wind Believers could not take it anymore.

A young man with a large chopping saber, like a kite with its string cut, describing a parabolic arc in the sky, plummeted downwards.

Situations quickly took a dire turn!

One after another, the North Wind Believers were incapacitated with injuries, tumbling to the ground.

In the blink of an eye, only four Believers were left hanging in the sky.

And as their number dwindled, the rotation frequency increased, leaving even less time for the few remaining believers to catch their breath.

"Ugh..."

Once again, Lu Ran witnessed Yan Shuangzi being shaken back.

Her body was bloody, her hair disheveled, and she was in a state of extreme disarray, bearing no resemblance to her former Unrivaled Charm as a Heavenly Pride.

For her, stepping through the air had always been trivially easy.

Yet at that moment, she stumbled, seemingly at risk of falling from the sky, hundreds of meters high, at any moment.
