Deng Yuxiang's trembling body gradually calmed down.

Inside the Immortal Worship Hall, it was quiet.

Lu Ran took a step back, observing the silent Big Nightmare.

Speaking of which, should the Night Charm Clan consider renaming themselves the Nightmare Clan?

"Phew~"

A sudden energy fluctuation awakened Lu Ran.

Deng Yuxiang opened her palm, and above her palm, a Wind Blade took shape, slowly rotating.

Night Charm Evil Technique·Night Charm Blade!

Seeing this scene, a smile appeared on Lu Ran's face.

It was quite brilliant.

"Whish~ whish~"

One Night Charm Blade after another appeared out of thin air, slowly rotating around Deng Yuxiang.

Lu Ran couldn't help but secretly exclaim: The person who understands you best is indeed your opponent!

Look at Deng Yuxiang!

The way she wielded those blades was truly at her whim.

A total of 16 blades, each could be looked after. They revolved around Deng Yuxiang without a single hitch.

"Phew~"

Another slight energy fluctuation.

Deng Yuxiang donned a black night outfit.

Tight-fitting, the night outfit perfectly outlined her impressive body curves.

"Tsk." Lu Ran clicked his tongue.

Indeed, women's clothing is best worn by women.

How can a man achieve this effect?

A wide bamboo hat and a soft black veil covered Deng Yuxiang's true face.

How is this different from a Night Charm?

Upon closer inspection, there was a difference.

Deng Yuxiang was a few centimeters taller than the Night Charm Clan.

"Buzz!"

Deng Yuxiang's body suddenly trembled, splitting into three.

Lu Ran's eyesight was excellent, and he could immediately tell which two were Night Charms and which one was a Nightmare.

"Why can't I transform?" Deng Yuxiang asked.

"Because those two Night Charm clones are essentially Energy Bodies, while you are a flesh-and-blood body."

"Oh." Deng Yuxiang gently nodded.

Though she thought it was a pity, she was not discouraged.

She cast spells several times consecutively, confirming her suspicion:

She could still achieve a flashing effect at the moment her body "split into three".

Suddenly, a transmission fell and imprinted into Deng Yuxiang's mind: "It will be better later."

Deng Yuxiang abruptly looked up at Lu Ran.

However, the black veil of the bamboo hat obscured her view.

Deng Yuxiang was very certain that Lu Ran's voice did not enter through her ears but was imprinted in her mind!

She lifted the black veil and looked at Lu Ran.

Lu Ran pursed his lips and smiled, also looking at her.

When Deng Yuxiang signed the "Inheritance Contract" with the Night Charm Evil Sculpture in Lu Ran's mind, she effectively became equivalent to the Night Charm Evil Sculpture.

In other words, when Lu Ran and the Night Charm Evil Sculpture were closely connected...

He was spiritually connected with Deng Yuxiang!

Lu Ran sent another transmission: "You will gradually replace the Night Charm Evil Sculpture.

When that day comes, you will be able to freely transform between your main body and the other two clones once you split into three again."

"Oh?" Deng Yuxiang raised an eyebrow, "You're saying that by following you in cultivation, I will gradually become an Energy Body?"

Lu Ran shrugged: "Just like the Human-shaped Demons we encountered on the night of the fifteenth.

Most of them have flesh and blood, but after they die, they turn into mist and dissipate into the world.

In the future, when you completely succeed, you can appear as a flesh-and-blood being.

But in essence, you will be a formidable energy entity."

Lu Ran paused, then continued: "Moreover, the term Energy Body does not adequately describe the heights you will reach in the future."

Deng Yuxiang was intrigued: "Then what should it be called?"

This time, Lu Ran did not speak, but quietly looked at her.

However, his words were clearly imprinted in her mind: "A god."

Deng Yuxiang's eyes narrowed slightly.

That seductive and beautiful face was aggressively beautiful under the Night Charm outfit.

Lu Ran stepped forward and lowered the black veil hanging from the bamboo hat, covering her face:

"You will gradually become a deity."

The process of Deng Yuxiang continuously aligning with the Night Charm Evil Sculpture is the process of becoming an 'Evil God.'

This is also the advantage of being an 'Inheritor.'

Other Human Clan cultivators also ascend step by step on the path to becoming a god.

But everyone grows savagely.

After reaching a certain height, the Human Clan will be barred from the halls of the All Gods, making further progress nearly impossible.

What god would be willing to let a believer under their door replace them?

Ridiculous!

They wouldn't even let you get close to the hall doors!

Once you climb too high, the gods can easily employ some tricks to make human believers fall.

Deng Yuxiang is completely different!

No constraints three feet above her head!

The Night Charm led her directly into the Evil God Hall.

The Fake God·Night Charm in Lu Ran's Sculpture Garden will give everything to support Deng Yuxiang, giving her everything!

Until Deng Yuxiang completes the feat of replacing and surpassing...

Then she can raise the butcher's knife against the Evil Demon True Form·Night Charm Evil Sculpture within the Evil God Hall!

Ultimately replacing it!

"I understand now." Behind the black veil, Deng Yuxiang eagerly licked her lips.

Becoming a god?

She loves a challenge.

And she is more than willing to follow Lu Ran to meet his every expectation for her.

In the end, to help him accomplish that grand goal!

Lu Ran nodded in satisfaction: "You should know better than I do that the Night Charm Clan doesn't have an Evil Technique for Sound Positioning.

The reason this clan is sensitive to wind comes from their racial traits.

Now that you're masked with the black veil, it might be inconvenient during battle.

However, as your compatibility with the Night Charm Evil Sculpture deepens, you'll become increasingly sensitive to the wind."

Speaking, Lu Ran pinched the soft black veil: "You can pay attention to this aspect.

It's also a way to tangibly experience your fusion process with the Night Charm Evil Sculpture."

From behind the black veil, Deng Yuxiang spoke in a light voice: "What should I call you now?"

"Eh?"

"Evil Demon Lord?"

"No need for that between us, it's unnecessary and could easily expose us," Lu Ran declined.

Deng Yuxiang slowly kneeled on one knee, bowing her head respectfully.

Without saying a word, her demeanor resembled that of a Night Charm!

It even made Lu Ran a bit dazed.

No!

No need for titles, let alone formalities!

Well... it's okay, at least she's only kneeling on one knee, not trying to shorten my lifespan.

Lu Ran immediately helped her up: "What's this for?"

Deng Yuxiang said: "Without rules, a square can't be formed."

Lu Ran was a bit numb: "Sis, don't mess with me..."

"Phew~"

Deng Yuxiang's clothes changed, and the bamboo hat and night outfit vanished quietly.

She casually straightened the creases on her collar: "In the future, more and more people will follow you and look up to you.

Little Lu Ran, you're about to embark on a big endeavor, and I hope those under your command..."

Lu Ran interrupted her, his expression becoming serious: "I hope our relationship doesn't change."

Deng Yuxiang paused in her words.

Her gaze softened slightly, and she gently patted his shoulder: "It won't."

Seeing her like this, Lu Ran felt a bit more at ease.

He said, "You should keep practicing here, Ruyi is advancing over there, I'll go accompany her."

"Yes." Deng Yuxiang gently nodded.

Lu Ran: "..."

He hesitated for a moment but ultimately didn't say anything, turning around to leave.

However, just as Lu Ran reached the hall doors, he suddenly sensed something.

Faintly, it seemed like someone was calling out to him?

Lu Ran stopped, his expression puzzled, and turned to look into the depths of the hall.

Deng Yuxiang was looking at him from afar.

Lu Ran asked, "Is it you calling me?"

Upon hearing this, Deng Yuxiang thoughtfully said: "It seems I'm not devout enough to let you hear my voice."

Lu Ran explained: "I must be closely connected with the Night Charm Evil Sculpture in my mind to communicate with you spiritually.

Just now, my attention wasn't even on the Night Charm statue."

Clearly, it's an unequal situation.

Lu Ran can contact Deng Yuxiang anytime, anywhere, clearly transmitting messages into her mind.

Whereas she needs to work very hard and focus intently to possibly catch Lu Ran's attention.

[Now, speak.] Lu Ran activated transmission mode, connecting with the Night Charm Evil Sculpture.

[Tomorrow, I plan to find a Heavenly Star believer and fix the Night-cutting Blade before the fifteenth.] Deng Yuxiang gazed at Lu Ran from afar.

[Tianchen Steel isn't easy to buy, and powerful Heavenly Star believers aren't easy to find. Do you have any leads?]

[I do.] Deng Yuxiang's response was crisp and decisive.

Lu Ran nodded.

Deng Yuxiang is indeed a wealthy heiress, not lacking money.

She was also once a disciple of the North Wind Sect, a sect specializing in weapons, closely connected with the "blacksmiths" of the Heavenly Star Sect. She likely has the resources.

[Don't expose the Night Charm Evil Technique, stay safe, go quickly and return quickly.] Lu Ran pushed open the hall door and walked out.

[Yes!]

Listening to the respectful response in his mind, Lu Ran shook his head helplessly, closed the hall door behind him.

"Phew..."

Lu Ran took a deep breath.

Finally, he had accomplished a major task!

Recalling all that had happened in the past two days, it truly felt like a dream.

Who would have thought the first general under the Ran Sect would be the Big Nightmare!

Should I introduce some prestigious titles in the Ran Sect?

The gods in this world have titles like "One Immortal, One Saint, Two Martial Heroes," "The Four War Heroes," "The Eight Demon Lords," "The Twelve Earthly Fiends."

We can create our own version!

Maybe the Four Protectors, Eight Divine Generals, and Twenty Celestial Lords?

First Protector of the Ran Sect·Nightmare!

Second Protector of the Ran Sect·Mad Immortal!

Tsk tsk~

Sounds pretty good, right?

Lu Ran was in high spirits, dreaming sweetly as he walked to Luoxian Pavilion.

Oh, and soon I will challenge the Divine Ruins!

There's still a bit of preparation to do.

Lu Ran took out his phone, scrolled through his contacts for a while, and dialed a number.

Soon, a surprised voice came from the other end: "Ran... Ran Shen?"

Lu Ran smiled amiably, his voice even more amiable: "Brother Hao!"

Hao Tian, a friend from Qiantang River.

The question is, how did he earn a place in Ran Shen's phone contacts?

Because Hao Tian has a wonderful sister—Wang Quan Believer·Li Rouyin!

"Happy New Year, Ran Shen." Hao Tian was a bit confused, unsure if Lu Ran had called the wrong number.

Ever since they exchanged contacts, not even a message was exchanged.

Hao Tian had been silently following, watching Lu Ran ascend to the pinnacle of Heavenly Pride.

Knowing someone like Lu Ran was a great source of pride for Hao Tian.

He never imagined that one day, he would receive a call from Lu Ran!

Lu Ran showed concern: "Brother Hao, has our sister been eating well lately?"

Hao Tian: "..."

You don't even want to say 'Happy New Year' to me...
