In the depths of the forest, two trails of Immortal Fog outlined the paths of two Immortal Sheep Believers.

Lu Ran turned his head to look at the swift shadow passing by and praised, "You're adapting quite well, aren't you?"

Deng Yuxiang replied, "I've got a layer of wind beneath my feet."

Lu Ran understood in his heart.

So she used the Night Charm Evil Technique·Night Dance.

No wonder she could navigate the complex mountainous forest so easily.

Lu Ran suddenly showed a mischievous smile, "So? How does it feel to use the Evil Technique of your former arch-enemy?"

Deng Yuxiang's lips curled into a wanton smile, "Feels like it was made for me."

The mischievous smile disappeared from Lu Ran's face, replaced by a look of surprise in his eyes.

The Big Nightmare has really returned?!

Previously, on the day Lu Ran rescued Deng Yuxiang, even when he brought her back to Luoxian Mountain, she acted as if nothing had happened.

However, when Lu Ran bound the Night Charm Evil Sculpture to her, her state and reactions, including when she knelt on one knee towards him...

Lu Ran still felt that something was off.

More than half a month had passed, has she finally come around?

The phrase "feels like it was made for me" revealed an air of unrivaled confidence in every word, that kind of pride bordering on arrogance, made Lu Ran ecstatic!

"I'll go first." Deng Yuxiang gazed at the grand temple gate.

"Me first!" Lu Ran drew the Dawn Blade and Silent Night Blade.

"Whoever's faster goes first." Deng Yuxiang charged ahead.

Although both of their Divine Technique·Immortal Hoof were River Grade, Deng Yuxiang's casting strength surpassed Lu Ran's!

Because she was Jiang Realm·Third Rank, while Lu Ran was Jiang Realm·Second Rank.

In terms of speed alone, Lu Ran was indeed no match for the Big Nightmare.

"Are you forcing me to Instant Teleport?" Lu Ran retorted.

This feeling of not having to keep secrets was simply too delightful!

Deng Yuxiang frowned slightly, her voice cold, "Don't mess around!"

Lu Ran was immediately displeased, "How can you talk to the Evil Demon Lord like this?"

Deng Yuxiang gave Lu Ran a glance, "How can you talk to your sister like this?"

Lu Ran: ???

Hey, what the heck?

"Screech——"

Deng Yuxiang accelerated, the Immortal Fog beneath her feet churned, deliberately darting ahead of Lu Ran.

Lu Ran was speechless!

He was always the one leaving others in the dust!

Before Deng Yuxiang, this "battle sheep," joined the sect, when did Lu Ran ever receive such treatment?

Lu Ran also accelerated, rushing straight towards the palace gate.

"Boom!"

Deng Yuxiang wielded the Night-slaying Broken Blade, slashing heavily forward.

As the gate trembled, a tremendous force emanated from the broken blade, surging into Deng Yuxiang's body.

Shooting forward at high speed, she was like a cannonball, rebounding once more.

"Rumble!"

Lu Ran wielded a pair of Divine Weapons, slashing an "X" shape in front of him.

The gate trembled once more, the immense force struck!

Lu Ran's face suddenly changed!

With a "whoosh," Lu Ran was propelled into the air, internal energy churning.

"Crack!"

Lu Ran smashed through a tree, only coming to a stop when his back collided with the second trunk.

He slid to the ground, struggling to suppress the rampant energy within, feeling a sweetness in his throat.

"Little Lu Ran?" Deng Yuxiang looked shocked, quickly rushing to Lu Ran's side.

Blood was actually flowing from the corner of his mouth?

This?

She too was invaded by the energy, shaken with churning blood, but it shouldn't be to the point of spitting blood?

"I'm fine." Lu Ran said with a grave expression.

On the distant majestic temple gate, there were two traces left by slashes.

Deng Yuxiang half-kneeled beside Lu Ran, inspecting his injuries, calmly analyzing,

"Is it that the higher the attack level, the greater the rebounding damage?"

"Very likely." Lu Ran gripped the two Divine Weapons tightly.

Unfortunately, breaking through the Divine Ruins gate requires close combat.

Lu Ran couldn't perform ranged attacks, nor could he command the Divine Weapons to fly and stab.

In other words, the one being tested has to use their own body to shatter the Divine Ruins gate.

"Hmm?" Lu Ran suddenly sensed something, carefully feeling his internal state, "Sister, did you notice something?"

"What?"

Lu Ran closed his eyes, carefully sensing, "When we struck the Divine Temple gate, the feedback energy was indeed harming us.

But that energy seemed to also be enhancing us?"

"Oh?" Deng Yuxiang was a bit puzzled.

Lu Ran confirmed repeatedly, his expression growing more and more delighted, "It's like this!"

He looked at the woman beside him, "The energy invading us is indeed harming us, and we should suppress it as quickly as possible.

But at the moment this aggressive energy enters us, it's helping us widen our meridians!"

Deng Yuxiang nodded thoughtfully.

Compared to Lu Ran, her previous strike clearly lacked the output level required.

This also resulted in the temple gate's counter, not meeting the expected standard for her.

Therefore, what Deng Yuxiang likely received was pure damage, without the benefit of widening meridians!

"Sister, let's take turns!" Lu Ran immediately formulated a plan for attacking the gate, "We'll both use Dawn Silence Night, I'll slash then you slash!

After all, this Divine Ruins is made for us, it belongs to us.

Unlike the Beifeng Divine Ruins, where it's unclear where the treasure will fall, and the disciples must fight for it."

Deng Yuxiang, "... "

Those favored can indeed be so willful!

Lu Ran got up, "Let's go."

Deng Yuxiang quickly shifted her mindset, adapting to the favored role, and said,

"Then I'll clear the forest a bit, leaving a path for when one of us is blasted back, the other can help offload the force."

Lu Ran immediately nodded, "Alright!"

Moments later, the two Jiang Realm Great Powers prepared thoroughly, with Lu Ran positioned about a hundred meters from the Divine Ruins, poised to strike.

Unfortunately, the Soul-splitting Demon Evil Technique·Soul Splitting Power and Barbaric Female Demon Evil Technique·Wilderness Power cannot stack.
