Summit of the Old Gods

Chapter 423: 388 Cultivation... Divine Sculpture?


"Little Lu Ran?"

Suddenly, a shadow covered the blood-red setting sun.

She stumbled and fell next to Lu Ran, her hands stained with blood, trembling as she helped Lu Ran's shoulders up.

"It's okay, I'm fine." Lu Ran softly reassured her.

Both were severely harmed by the Divine Ruins, with serious internal injuries, feeling as if their organs were displaced.

"Mm." Deng Yuxiang breathed a sigh of relief, supporting Lu Ran as he leaned against her chest.

Unintentionally, blood overflowed from the corner of her mouth again.

The crimson blood flowed past her chin, dripping onto Lu Ran's head.

Lu Ran noticed and looked up at the woman.

Her miserable appearance and deeply concerned eyes made Lu Ran feel uneasy.

Clearly unable to protect herself, yet still worried about...

"Boom!"

Suddenly, a violent tremor interrupted Lu Ran's thoughts.

The earth quaked, and the mountains shook!

The whole world seemed to be trembling.

Both of them turned pale, looking up at the source of the sound.

At this moment, they were in no state to fight!

The sky was clear, yet there was nothing?

Lu Ran was filled with dread as he pushed the Evil Technique·Evil Recognition to its limits, yet saw nothing.

Deng Yuxiang frowned deeply, searching meticulously for a long time but found nothing either.

She cautiously glanced around.

They found themselves on a cliffside of a mountain peak.

The western view was wide open, revealing the undulating mountains, while the eastern forest was dense, its dangers unknown.

"Huff~"

Lu Ran struggled to lift his hand, and with a surge of energy, an ancient bronze mirror appeared out of thin air.

Evil Mirror Demon Technique·Connection Mirror!

Lu Ran concentrated, and the images in the mirror constantly changed, searching the surroundings.

Deng Yuxiang remained silent, but the images in the mirror filled her with a quiet terror.

Blood-red sunset, cliffside end.

The afterglow of the sunset illuminated the shadows of two figures leaning on each other.

Tragic, yet beautiful.

As if predicting an outcome...

Deng Yuxiang wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth; she was not satisfied with this outcome.

She looked at the unfamiliar environment and tried to muster her spirits.

From this moment on, everything from before was cut off.

Family, friends, the familiar society, past life...

All had moved away from her.

Even as Deng Yuxiang looked around, she couldn't find the way back.

Could they still return?

She didn't know.

How far is this place from home?

Unclear.

After the mysterious Divine Ruins, Lu Ran and she only had each other.

What kind of ending, should be written together by both.

"Cage Fire." Deng Yuxiang whispered softly.

Lu Ran looked at the ancient bronze mirror, seeing himself once again.

He softly said, "Within five hundred meters, there's no one."

Lu Ran concentrated again, and the oval ancient bronze mirror gradually enlarged, transforming into a full-length mirror.

A few hundred meters away, in the forest, a full-length mirror quietly appeared.

Lu Ran continued, "Let's go into the forest."

Being cautious is always good.

Not knowing what might exist above, the two of them standing on the cliffside were too conspicuous.

"Okay." Deng Yuxiang was already kneeling beside Lu Ran, she supported Lu Ran's back with one hand, and with the other, she slipped under his knees, directly lifting him up in her arms horizontally.

Lu Ran: ???

No!

Does the Evil Demon Lord not care about face?

Lu Ran hurried to struggle, but he was too weak.

His injuries were indeed much more severe than Deng Yuxiang's.

After all, when attacking the Divine Ruins earlier, Lu Ran's output far exceeded hers.

"Don't move, no one else is watching." Deng Yuxiang staggered a bit, sternly admonishing.

Lu Ran: "..."

In the setting sun, Deng Yuxiang's steps wavered, leaving droplets of blood in her wake.

She held him and turned sideways into the full-length mirror, suddenly her foot slipped, and they tumbled down before a large tree.

Lu Ran bore the weight crashing upon him, grimacing in pain.

Big Nightmare, why not just bring me swift relief?

Mental attack first, then physical torture.

The whole package of torment...

"Cage Fire." Deng Yuxiang struggled to roll off Lu Ran.

She leaned back against the tree, her chest heaving violently as she gasped for breath.

"Huff~"

In Lu Ran's hand, black flames ignited.

Black Lamp Evil Technique·Cage Fire Bath!

In just a few seconds, the black fire had enveloped Lu Ran's whole body.

"Come closer." Lu Ran whispered.

"Mm." Deng Yuxiang leaned slightly, her shoulder resting against Lu Ran's.

The black flames spread from his shoulder to her body.

The gentle black fire healed their severely wounded and weakened bodies.

The tense nerves gradually relaxed, and a wave of drowsiness came over them.

The trials of the Divine Ruins tested people in all aspects, including the spiritual plane.

Lu Ran softly said, "Take a nap, I'll let the Divine Weapon keep watch."

As he spoke, the Dawn Blade and Silent Night Blade were unsheathed, revolving around them, gradually expanding their perimeter.

"Mm." Deng Yuxiang did not refuse; in her current physical state, if danger were to arise, she wouldn't be able to help much.

The top priority was to recover as quickly as possible.

The sunset slowly fell in the sky.

She rested against Lu Ran's shoulder, feeling the nourishing warmth of the black fire as her eyes gradually closed...

"Huff~"

The mountain wind blew, bringing with it the pungent scent of blood.

And a faint aroma of camellia.

Lu Ran forced himself to stay alert, continuing to cast his spells.

He could indeed summon the Evil Demon·Black Lantern.

But he could only summon the River Realm Black Lantern, which could only use the River Grade·Cage Fire Bath, providing a vastly inferior healing effect.

And such item-type evil demons were not very intelligent, making them troublesome to instruct.

"Lord Immortal Sheep?" Lu Ran called in his heart.

Just right, he could consult the Lord Deity to understand the situation better and avoid falling asleep himself.
