Summit of the Old Gods

Chapter 182: 163 eight-sword style?


The tiny Human Clan appeared like swallows returning to their nests, plunging headfirst into the embrace of the Prison Sky Demon.

Along with the plunge, a sharp Silent Night Blade followed!

"Zi!"

The slender and long blade of the knife, following the holes in the chains, pierced the chest of the Prison Sky Demon.

"Sss..."

The Prison Sky Demon didn't seem to cry in pain, but rather let out a roar of anger.

He was truly dumbfounded!

In the visual scope of the Prison Sky Demon, that insignificant human, who was clearly still on the charge, was at least twenty or thirty meters away from him.

So why was his heart hurting so much?

And where did that sharp blade come from?

"Ah!!"

The muscles on both arms of the Prison Sky Demon bulged, as if they were about to burst.

He no longer cared whether anyone was in front of him or not, embracing with both arms fiercely.

The Immortal Fog surged, and the shadow quickly retreated.

Before the giant arms embraced, Lu Ran had already withdrawn his blade and left.

And not just that!

Under the Divine Technique·Immortal Hoof, the rapidly retreating Lu Ran only took three or four meters back before stomping heavily on the ground and steadying his footing.

The huge inertia, the momentum of retreating, seemed like it didn't exist at all.

Lu Ran lunged forward again, his eyes cold and horizontal, flickering with a faint glow.

Evil Technique·Evil Sense helped him find the precise hole in the "chain clothing" amidst the intricate tangle.

Evil Technique·Evil Agility made his lunging blade exceedingly fast and even more precise.

Evil Technique·Night Dance... No!

Night Dance,

aided him to dance gracefully amidst this cold moonlit snowy field as if he were a creature of the night!

"Zi!"

The blade entered the flesh, and the Dawn Blade stabbed in from the rib area of the Prison Sky Demon.

"Ah, ah, ah!" The Prison Sky Demon raged in anger.

He hadn't reacted yet when his arms were already moving, flinging the chains in his hands violently!

"Pa!"

Lu Ran misted Immortal Fog under his feet and quickly retreated, hearing the heavy smack of the chains on the ground.

Those several autonomously moving arms were indeed troublesome.

Long ago, Lu Ran had already noticed this problem.

Though he had successfully attracted the attention of the Prison Sky Demon, Evil Technique·Heavenly Prison Hand actively slapped away spirit tokens and grabbed the flying sword.

"Be careful with the Lotus Flying Sword, halt it, stop the flying sword!" Prisoner Demon believers shouted loudly.

Lu Ran's speed was just too fast, dodging left and right, and the Moon Gazers were afraid the flying sword would impale Lu Ran.

Prison Demon Disciples kept summoning Blood Chains, trying to bind the Prison Sky Demon's six huge hands.

It was clear, with Lu Ran being this strong, the Moon Gazers decisively adjusted their tactics and began to assist.

Although Lu Ran was just a student, although he was an Immortal Sheep Believer... well, it didn't matter!

What mattered was, this boy was really damn fierce!

Hard on the frontal attack, yet with ease to spare.

"Roar!!"

Under the pull of the Blood-colored Chains, the massive body of the Prison Sky Demon suddenly arched backward.

"Crack! Crack..."

The six arms tore fiercely, and the Blood Chains continuously cracked.

"Zi—"

Immortal Fog carried a shadow fluttering through them.

The swallow returned to the nest once more as the blade stabbed again into the heart of the Prison Sky Demon.

"Crack!!"

Under the severe pain, the Prison Sky Demon tore apart the Blood Chains fiercely!

Because of his excessive force, all six arms bent and faced forward.

"Roar!!" The Prison Sky Demon completely lost it.

He hadn't made eye contact with Lu Ran for several seconds; the effects of the illusion were fading, and his brain was a mess.

At this moment, he didn't care what he saw either.

Those eight arms holding the chains went crazy, flailing everywhere, a picture of madness.

The swiftly retreating Lu Ran had his eyes sharpen.

An opportunity!

His sliding figure stopped suddenly; Lu Ran rapidly circled to the back, and then...

"Don't! Don't go!"

"You're looking for... you're crazy!!"

"Lu Ran!?"

At this time, the Prison Sky Demon was attacking indiscriminately, the chains thrashing everything around.

Even if Lu Ran attacked from behind, the output of the Prison Sky was just too chaotic.

Those six arms that just bent backward occasionally also struck backward.

But amidst the astonished eyes of the crowd and the voices of restraint...

With a grim face, Lu Ran just plunged into the chain formation!

The "Bloody Purgatory" constructed by the Prisoner Demon believers, I've broken through.

Is your black purgatory any harder, Prison Sky?

"Zi—"

At that moment, Lu Ran was like an incarnation of Night Charm.

Immortal Hoof full throttle!

Lu Ran charged alone into the chain formation, his feet stomping and darting left and right.

"Sss..." It wasn't a roar but the Moon Gazers gasping.

"Fuck!"

"Damn, really freaking evil!"

The Moon Gazers even felt as if they had seen a strong North Wind Believer!

Not just quick but also agile and swift.

Lu Ran seemed to hear the whispers of the wind, dodging every chain that whipped past.

Incredible!

At that moment, everyone finally understood how Lu Ran had slain the Barbaric Woman on the fifteenth of October.

However, the October Lu Ran certainly didn't possess the strength he had now.

It seemed like he was stepping on the ground, changing directions time after time.

But in the thick Immortal Fog, Lu Ran's feet were surrounded by gales, arbitrarily changing his direction of travel.

Why did he dare to break in here?

Because the Prison Sky Demon had gone mad.

If the Prison Sky Demon had let the six arms act on their own as before, Lu Ran would have been truly cautious.

But now, the Prison Sky Demon had obviously taken back control of the six arms.

All eight arms, eight chains, lashed out at random, without any method to the madness!

"Die."

Lu Ran's voice was soft, yet his strike was heavy.

He seized the opportunity, his feet stomping hard, and found a big gap in the chain formation that wasn't finely knit!

His right hand holding the Silent Night Blade directly stabbed into the back of the Prison Sky Demon's head!

"Zi!"

The dark blade emerged from the Prison Sky Demon's brow, stained with crimson blood.

In an instant, the ferocious Prison Sky Demon finally came to a stop!

Lu Ran was almost crouching on the robust back of the Prison Sky Demon and, with the huge impact, took the Prison Sky Demon forward.

The Prison Sky Demon raised a Gale, and frost danced in its path.

Lu Ran stomped hard on the back of the Evil Demon, with Immortal Fog rolling under his feet, Immortal Hoof revived!

Man and demon, from then on, parted ways.

One demon rushed towards the school gate, crashing heavily into the snow, piling into a mound of snow.

One person retreated towards the academic building, sliding backward in the snow, trying to slow down the momentum.

"Heh..."

Lu Ran let out a deep breath of relief.

You wretched thing,

You were damn hard to kill!

When I first slew the Barbaric Woman, I didn't have the Night Charm Evil Technique to help me.

It's not to say that the Prison Sky Demon was stronger than the Barbaric Woman.

But because the Prison Sky Demon really restrained my type of close combat.

Such Evil Demons not only have many arms and chains but also those arms can act autonomously.

Truly, it's an outrage!

Just a pity about those six arms.

If the Prison Sky Demon hadn't canceled the "trust," those six hands might have protected their master for a while longer.

Hmm... kind of interesting, huh~

Lu Ran couldn't help but contemplate deeply.

If I activated the Evil Sculpture of the Prison Sky Demon clan, I could also grow six arms.

Could these hands automatically protect me too?

When the time comes, could I hold eight swords?

After all, I don't need to worry about limited attention, since those six hands can be entrusted.

Good gracious~

Eight-sword style?

"Hu~~"

Lu Ran faintly heard the sound of the gale approaching.

He tensed up and immediately looked up at the night sky.

But he saw a woman wearing a woolen coat, holding a slim and long Night-slaying Great Saber, stabbing down rapidly.

As she got closer, the anxious color on her face gradually faded.

"Deng, Miss Deng."

"Miss Deng." A group of Moon Gazers immediately greeted her.

Deng Yuxiang slowed down abruptly, gliding to the ground, her gaze sweeping over the whole scene.

She saw her younger brother in the distance, and several students gawking both inside and outside the academic building doors.

She then scanned over Moon Gazers, their faces a mix of shock and disbelief as if they had yet to return to their senses.

Lastly, Deng Yuxiang saw the massive body lying in the snow at the school gate.

"Did you request reinforcements?" Deng Yuxiang gently landed, "Did they say here was a River Realm Rank 3~4 Prison Sky Demon?"

"Lu... Lu Ran has already resolved it," a Moon Gazer said.

The corner of Deng Yuxiang's mouth lifted slightly, her smile enchanting under the moonlight.

Unlike others, she knew well Lu Ran's strength and didn't doubt it for a moment.

Deng Yuxiang took two steps forward, extending a cool palm, tidying up Lu Ran's disheveled clothes:

"You've been showing off again?"

The content of these words was supposedly blameful.

But there was a touch of pride in the woman's tone, no matter how one listened.

Lu Ran shook his head: "Not at all, the Moon Gazers were backing me up."

That single comment made everyone blush with shame!

Some secretly felt guilty, while others believed that Lu Ran's words were quite offensive...

Actually, Lu Ran meant it from the bottom of his heart.

Just now, when the Prisoner Demon believers displayed their Divine Technique, binding the Prison Sky Demon's arms with chains, it was truly crucial!

Of course, if there had been no others on the battlefield, Lu Ran would have killed even quicker.

After all, most of his Evil Techniques must absolutely not be revealed to others.

He couldn't possibly slay a Prison Sky Demon in public, transform into Night Charm, and wield 8 Night Charm Blades...

If so, the Prison Sky Demon might have died cleanly, but so would have Lu Ran.

"Pfft~"

In the distance, the giant skeleton disintegrated into wisps of blue smoke.

Deng Yuxiang: "Looking at you, this battle was rather dangerous?"

Lu Ran, having found someone to confide in, couldn't stop himself: "He had too many hands!

The chains flailed about, crackling and snapping! Who could withstand that..."

Deng Yuxiang's eyebrows rose slightly: "But didn't you withstand it?"

Lu Ran pursed his lips.

Well, that's also true~

"Next time, you could wait for the patrol team to come to your aid; don't be so stubborn," Deng Yuxiang softly spoke.

"Oh, got it... By the way, where's your camera?" Lu Ran curiously asked, looking at the Big Nightmare's collar.

Deng Yuxiang smiled: "I'm now in the River Realm, I have more important responsibilities and can't participate in 'Heavenly Pride' anymore."

Lu Ran: "..."

So, no more believer points, no rewards, and all Divine Weapons and Magic Artifacts gone?

Deng Yuxiang suddenly said: "But they're very interested in you, 'Heavenly Pride.'

Remember? They specifically asked me to bring you along to join the battle."

Lu Ran: "Hmm..."

Deng Yuxiang turned her head, looking towards where the Prison Sky Demon's skeleton vanished: "Now you are also in the River Realm.

With your combat power, you are worthy of the 'Heavenly Pride' title."

Lu Ran clenched his twin sabers, his heart pounding!

"Carry out your missions well; after the fifteenth this time, I'll ask for you," Deng Yuxiang said and slowly rose into the air.

Lu Ran looked up at the woman, cautioning: "Be careful on your way."

Deng Yuxiang grinned, glaring at Lu Ran: "Are you telling me?

Next time something like this happens, wait for my support."

Lu Ran: "Oh."

...

Three updates completed, holy moly! Wrote from morning to evening, sat in front of the computer all day, my body feels numb~

Could use some monthly ticket support!
