"Whooosh~~~"

Wisps of Immortal Fog suddenly appeared around the Jade-faced Snake.

Evil Technique·Immortal Realm!

The Jade-faced Snake, while still cautious of Yan Zhi, readied her defenses and immediately activated the Purification Skill.

At that moment, the paper figurines in Yan Zhi's hands could no longer interfere with the Jade-faced Snake.

A hint of irritation in Lu Ran's heart had turned into secret joy.

The Jade-faced Snake, though seemingly aloof and looking down on all, had clear thoughts and acted cautiously.

A phrase surfaced in Lu Ran's mind:

"Contempt for the enemy strategically, respect for the enemy tactically!"

Good!

Worthy of being the arch-nemesis of a First-class God!

Worthy of being a being that could match the Evil Spear Emperor in terms of wits!

Such an Evil Demon, if under his command, would be fit to lead the Servant Squad.

"Swoosh~"

Lu Ran's figure quietly vanished, Eight Desolate Annihilation in hand, as he appeared abruptly behind the Jade-faced Snake.

A crisp "ding" sound.

Lu Ran had been fast enough, yet his curved sword still stabbed into the snake's tail!

"Oh?" Lu Ran's eyebrows slightly rose.

Truly a River Realm Demon Monarch!

The Ran Sect Blade Technique Third Form·Shuo Star actually blocked?

Always before, the body of the Jade-faced Snake, with her tail in a spiral, wrapped around her upper half.

And just as Lu Ran vanished, the coiled snake tail suddenly tightened, causing him to return without success.

Swoosh~

Lu Ran's figure disappeared again.

The next moment, a thick snake tail swept across with incredible force!

"Smack! Smack! Smack!"

At least sixteen thick, white-scaled snake tails went crazy.

A large number of trees were broken off, and the ground buzzed and trembled.

The Jade-faced Snake's crawling speed was also not to be underestimated.

Temporarily unable to find Lu Ran, she went straight for the annoying Yan Zhi.

"Errr..."

Yan Zhi let out a low moan, eyes filled with indignation.

But there was a difference in realm after all.

Even though Yan Zhi's aura was not inferior, she was but River Realm·Fifth Rank, how could she contend with a River Realm Demon Monarch?

Another point made Yan Zhi restrained.

Over the past half month, Lu Ran had trained her not to fly high, lest her identity be exposed.

Therefore, Yan Zhi could only flee backwards through the woods, dodging the Jade-faced Snake's pursuit.

"Hiss."

The hissing of the Jade-faced Snake was also shallow, seemingly indifferent, but her movements were not slow!

She crawled forward at high speed, several snake tails clearing the path, leveling the mountains and forests in front of her.

Several other tails whipped viciously at Yan Zhi.

Yan Zhi fled backward quickly, dodging left and right with exceptional agility.

But the white-scaled snake tails were even more agile!

"Smack!" A tail brushed past the expensive phoenix crown, shattering a nearby tree trunk.

Yan Zhi was both shocked and furious!

Seeing another snake tail attacking and having no way to avoid it, Yan Zhi flung her robe forward.

Vermilion Paper Evil Technique·Red Wedding Dress!

"Crack!!"

The tip of the snake tail swept the hem of the robe, emitting a harsh shattering sound.

Yan Zhi still wore the Big Red Robe, but from the level of Evil Techniques, the defensive garment had already shattered!

Yan Zhi's expression changed drastically!

In her view, a thick snake tail attacked like a giant spear.

At the same time, in the nearby woods.

Lu Ran reached out toward the side, a small ancient bronze mirror hovering in front of his palm.

The next moment, the oval-shaped mirror transformed into a large, standing mirror.

Evil Technique·Mirror Flower Moon!

Simultaneously, another standing mirror appeared in the woods, hanging on the path of Yan Zhi's backward flight.

"Whoosh!"

Yan Zhi flew backward into the mirror and also emerged from the standing mirror beside Lu Ran.

The Big Red Robe flattered in the wind.

Yan Zhi's floral beauty faded.

The scene was somewhat tragic, yet Lu Ran had no time to appreciate it.

Because in the mirror, the thick snake tail also followed through!

The standing mirror wasn't particularly large, barely three to two meters in length and width.

How could it possibly allow the passage of a bulky snake tail?

The fact... proved it could!

The standing mirror was forcibly expanded!

The thick white-scaled snake tail managed to squeeze through, transforming the rectangular mirror into a large round one...

How to describe that scene?

Well... um, must be sliced!

"Zzzzt!"

A sweep of rosy clouds passed by, and Lu Ran finally wielded the Divine Weapon, cutting off a snake tail in an instant.

"Hiss!!"

A shrill scream came from afar as the Jade-faced Snake cried out.

At this strike, the snake tail became docile,

Quickly retracting back,

Leaving only a neatly severed section of snake body on the ground, which then disintegrated into mist.

The gap between the Divine Weapon and ordinary blades was glaringly obvious.

Before, the Eight Desolate Blade couldn't penetrate the scales,

But the Dawn Blade directly severed the snake body!

"Hmm..."

Ten or so meters away, Yan Zhi's backward momentum slowed.

Having escaped from the brink of death, she looked towards the young emperor holding the Dawn Blade.

For a moment, Yan Zhi's eyes were full of emotion, tender as water.

Even her paper-white complexion blushed slightly.

Lu Ran paid no attention to Yan Zhi, his focus was all on the Jade-faced Snake.

He dispersed the standing mirror, looking interessingly at the Jade-faced Snake from afar.

The once lofty White Snake Immortal had finally changed color.

Her pair of eyes was no longer cold and indifferent but filled with indignation as she stared at Lu Ran from a distance.

"Heh."

Lu Ran grinned, weighing the Dawn Blade in his hand.

Ancient ancestors slew snakes,

Today, as a descendant, I shall emulate my predecessors!

It's only right for someone wearing this Black Gold Emperor Robe.

Lu Ran, brandishing the Dawn Blade, rode a black cloud straight towards the Jade-faced Snake!

He seemed to have no regard for the wildly flailing hefty snake tails.

"Hiss!!"

The Jade-faced Snake's voice was sharp, spitting serpentine sounds.

The white-scaled tail whipped fiercely.

The Dawn Blade immediately cleaved down!

The thick snake tail fell to the ground, its cross-section smooth, blood gushing forth and then breaking into mist.

Lu Ran's pupils were cold as he continued to soar!

Multiple snake tails flailed about, seemingly fierce and imposing.

Yet, wherever Lu Ran passed with the Dawn Blade, section after section of snake tails were cleanly severed.

"Hiss..."

The Jade-faced Snake was in excruciating pain, its normally icy visage twisting somewhat.

Lu Ran's black gold Emperor Robe fluttered as he advanced with sword in hand.

He looked at the Jade-faced Snake's frightened eyes, whispering softly,

"I still prefer you when you're high and mighty."

"Hiss!!"

A piercing luster suddenly burst from the Jade-faced Snake.

"Hm?" Lu Ran's body leaned back as the black cloud beneath his feet came to a sudden halt.

Is the Jade-faced Snake... about to evolve?

In Lu Ran's mind, even the background music of Digimon was playing!

He covered his face with one hand, squinting through his fingers, and through the brilliant light, he saw a humongous python soaring out!

This was the Jade-faced Snake clan's ultimate move!

Jiang Grade Evil Technique·White-Scaled Immortal Heavenly Python!

The Jade-faced Snake finally revealed its true form, no longer possessing the upper half of a human body, its entire being transformed into a massive python.

It was incredibly impressive in stature, spanning over a hundred meters in length!

"Well played~"

Lu Ran's mouth hung open slightly as he looked up at the White-Scaled Immortal Heavenly Python coiling through the sky.

Its eyes burned crimson as its robust serpent body was covered in minute white scales.

Every scale shone like polished white jade, exuding a beautiful luster.

If one were to capture this as a mount...

Wouldn't it be a splendid way to die?

"Hiss!!!"

The White-Scaled Immortal Heavenly Python hovered high above, opening its huge jaws to spray a stream of Immortal Breath below.

Evil Technique·Immortal Breath!

Suddenly, a red robe swept over, covering the sky above Lu Ran.

Yan Zhi swiftly flew over, her big red robe fluttering, attempting to protect Lu Ran.

"River Grade won't do," Lu Ran remarked offhandedly as he changed outfits with the push of a button.

His black gold Emperor Robe abruptly transformed into a big red robe.

Although it was not the attire of a bridegroom,

Lu Ran's and Yan Zhi's outfits could now be considered a matching couple set...

Lu Ran raised his right hand, and the ornately patterned sleeve suddenly expanded.

Evil Technique·Yan Paper Sleeve!

"Stop casting," Lu Ran ordered.

Yan Zhi stood beside Lu Ran and promptly withdrew the trailing end of her robe.

The Immortal Breath that was being sprayed from above was all drawn into the sleeve by Lu Ran's hand.

Yan Zhi watched for a moment, then she too raised her right hand, her sleeve expanding in size.

In her movements, she stole a glance at Lu Ran and slightly curled her lips.

Lu Ran: "..."

No!

Me! You... sigh...

Who could have imagined that the horrifying Yan Zhi in the eyes of the world was actually lovestruck?

No, a new servant was required.

Well... never mind.

It was already the seventh of November, with only two days left until the end of the trial, so let it be for now.

"Ouch!" Yan Zhi suddenly cried out in pain.

Lu Ran decisively pressed down her arm, "You have the River Grade Yan Paper Sleeve; you can't withstand it."

Yan Zhi bowed submissively, placing her hands together over her abdomen.

Like a docile little wife.

If anyone were to see this, their eyeballs might pop out!

A few meters around Lu Ran was considered a safe area.

But this entire mountain forest had been thoroughly devastated.

Wherever the Immortal Breath passed, flowers and grass were shredded, trees rapidly withered.

Even the ground itself was being dissolved along with everything else.

"Are we not done yet?" Lu Ran didn't look too pleased.

The Jade-faced Snake had been attacking without success yet didn't change tactics.

It just hovered in the sky, blowing Immortal Breath at Lu Ran.

It seemed the Jade-faced Snake was quite wary of Lu Ran and did not wish to come down.

"Fine, then just stay up there."

Lu Ran raised his right hand high, holding the expanded Yan Paper Sleeve.

With his left hand to the side, he clenched his fist and the Dawn Blade swiftly flew over, the hilt landing in its master's palm.

"Hum!"

The Dawn Blade quivered slightly.

Strands of rosy light emerged like ribbons of Chaos Sky Silk, dancing softly from the tip of the blade.

They meandered outside the absorbing range of the Yan Paper Sleeve, then spiraled up to the sky.

"Hiss!"

The White-Scaled Immortal Heavenly Python hissed angrily, increasing the intensity of its breath as if to extinguish the rosy light.

But it miscalculated.

As soon as the Immortal Breath touched the rosy light, it was completely consumed by the flames!

The White-Scaled Immortal Heavenly Python's eyes shifted, its body thrashing restlessly as its pupils nearly reduced to a vertical slit!

The "Chaos Sky Silk" had already struck, entwining around the python's body.

"Hiss! Hiss..."

The White Jade Immortal Heavenly Python, heedless of its noble stature, turned its head to flee, but it could not outspeed the rosy light!

In an instant, there were piercing screams that echoed through the sky.

The incredibly hard scales were being burned away, inch by inch.

The enormous python contorted its body in agony, crying out in pain, its body wrapped in brilliantly shining brocade, plunging headlong into the forest.

"Boom!"

The earth trembled, trees toppled.

Lu Ran lowered his raised right hand as an Ancient Bronze Mirror emerged once more.

With a thought, the image within the mirror shifted rapidly, locking onto the target area.

The Connection Mirror quietly expanded, transforming into a freestanding mirror.

Lu Ran stepped into it, the dust and dirt swirling in the air, obscuring vision.

He closed his eyes and listened intently.

"Hiss..."

The Jade-faced Snake lay limply on the ground, her eyes vacant, spitting out fresh blood.

By now, she was no longer the grandiose heavenly python of great stature.

By shrinking back to her half-human, half-snake form, she managed to break free from the entanglement.

But her body still bore the scorched scars, charred and bloody.

"Hiss!" The Jade-faced Snake suddenly widened her eyes in shock.

That human youth in the black gold Emperor Robe, unbeknownst to her, was now standing in front of her.

He did not move.

But a sharp Tang sword plunged down swiftly, nailing into her skull.

The Jade-faced Snake's head went blank, and by the time she came to her senses, she had turned into a Dead Soul, floating away from the body.

However,

That insignificant and lowly human still wouldn't let her go.

"Hiss! Hiss!!"

The Jade-faced Snake was livid with rage, reaching for Lu Ran's neck with one hand.

Lu Ran still did not move but silently watched her.

The soul of the River Realm Demon Monarch was continuously drawn in, merging into his cold, horizontal pupils.

Compared to the Evil Spear Emperor,

You, still lack a bit of finesse.

Lu Ran casually lifted his hand, the Silent Night Blade that had pierced through the enemy's head automatically took flight, slowly returning to its sheath.

"Hum!!"

Lu Ran's mind buzzed.

Inside the God Demon Sculpture Garden, the Jade-faced Snake Evil Sculpture absorbed the monarch's Lost Soul and then began to quiver!
