The peaks appeared and disappeared, the sea of fog blanketed the battlefield.

A group of three walked westward, against the flow of the fog sea.

Though they were three, Lu Ran always had an illusion, as if he were acting alone.

Deng Yuxiang, serving as the scout, moved like a ghost, observing the surroundings all the way.

This middle-aged man in his forties seemed to have gotten a beloved toy, shuttling back and forth continuously.

Lu Ran could understand Chou Nu's feelings.

This was Instant Teleportation!

Who wouldn't love it?

Heavenly General Bai was also unseen, as she was crawling beside Lu Ran's feet, her whole body submerged in the sea of fog.

She did not possess the ability to see through the mist; such behavior was akin to drawing boundaries and imprisoning oneself.

Yet she was sweetly satisfied.

Seeing nothing instead allowed a more focused sense of someone's presence, quietly following.

Lu Ran found it hard to imagine what she had gone through.

As he stepped onto a stone peak, Bai Rao finally emerged from the thick sea of fog.

[Aunt Bai.]

[Hmm?] Bai Rao looked up curiously.

[You are no longer the disciple of the Jade-faced Snake, no longer poisoned by the Evil God, no longer controlled by it.] Lu Ran lowered his head, gazing into those charming and captivating eyes.

[Is little Lu tired of me?] Bai Rao softly tugged at Lu Ran's pant leg, her voice carrying a hint of grievance.

As if Lu Ran was some heinous villain.

[You are your own god.] Lu Ran patiently guided her.

[Hmm.] Bai Rao's eyes smiled tenderly, her shoulder gently leaning against Lu Ran's calf, [I will stand up, there's no rush.]

[Young Master, the west!] Suddenly, Deng Chou's voice echoed in his mind.

In the Heavenly Realm Battlefield, direction was a non-concept.

It's simply people defining the flow of the fog sea as moving from west to east.

Lu Ran looked up and saw a humanoid figure.

He resembled a male of the Human Clan, dressed in neat blue attire, with flowing short hair.

In terms of looks, he was far more handsome than average human men, though of course, couldn't compare to a demon like Yu Changsheng.

The most striking feature was his blue eyes!

They truly looked like cold stars in the night sky, emitting a peculiar glow, making his handsome face even more mystical.

Evil Demon, Flash-Star Demon!

Third-class God, a nemesis of the Star Official.

"He's in trouble~" Bai Rao laughed with schadenfreude.

Because behind the Evil Demon, Flash-Star Demon, a Faceless Jade Venerable was pursuing, the horizontal floating hem of the jade robe indicating the Venerable's speed was frightening!

"Woosh~ Woosh~"

The Flash-Star Demon was wrapped in two stars, revolving in an "X" pattern, while frantically fleeing and throwing stars behind him.

The Evil Technique of the Flash-Star Demon clan was almost identical to the Divine Technique of the Star Officials.

The difference was, the Star Official Sect summoned stars to descend from the heavens, while the Flash-Star Demon threw stars from his hand.

In comparison, the output method of the Evil Demon was obviously superior to the God.

"Whew~"

The Faceless Jade Venerable displayed terrifying reflexes and agility, dodging left and right, without slowing her forward momentum.

Such a scene revealed much information to Lu Ran.

The Flash-Star Demon's Evil Technique was clearly a significant threat to the enemy!

What kind of existence was the Faceless Jade Venerable?

She faced all outputs with a tough attitude, crushing them outright!

Back then, Lu Ran wielded a Third-tier Divine Weapon, carrying immense momentum, his hands filled with Fierce Heavenly Power, barely managing to carve a few fine cracks on her.

Such a terrifying creature, dodging minor technique outputs from the Flash-Star Demon, was this right?

This... was very right!

Lu Ran immediately recalled the most famous skill of the Star Official Sect/Flash-Star Demon clan—Tian Shu Po Jun Star!

Star Official Sect has a saying:

"One star shatters ten thousand armors, Tian Shu decides life and death!"

In terms of armor-piercing, the Tian Shu Po Jun Star is almost the top existence in the Da Xia God Demon system among all Divine and Evil Techniques!

No matter if you use the Water Flow Armor or any sect's robe war armor...

Take my Tian Shu Po Jun, see if yours shatters and that's it!

The problem is also obvious: this star can uniquely blend into enemy armor, causing it to break, although it only targets defensive armor.

Its impact on the enemy's physical layer is not ideal.

It coincidentally happens that the Faceless Jade Venerable, entirely composed of white jade, seems to be "armor" inside and out?

Star Officials and Flash-Star Demons, when facing foreign enemies...

Professional match?!

"Woosh~ Woosh~"

While Lu Ran was pondering, he saw the Flash-Star Demon fleeing, casting stars backward.

The Faceless Jade Venerable dodged again.

"Bang!"

Due to being so close, this time, the Faceless Jade Venerable didn't entirely evade.

The blazing blue star grazed her flowing jade robe hem.

"Kacha~"

A barely audible sound emerged.

Lu Ran's eyes narrowed as he saw a few cracks crawling up a corner of the jade robe.

Though the patterns were shallow, they couldn't escape Lu Ran's keen eyes.

What a Tian Shu Po Jun Star!

Don't think these are just a few shallow cracks.

Can an ordinary First Level Heavenly Realm Great Power really break the defense of the Faceless Jade Venerable?

Deng Yu is the best example!

She is First Level of Heaven Realm, holding a Second-rank Divine Weapon, with the Divine Weapon Domain open, and powered by the Magic Artifact, Blood Jade Ring, barely managing to chop off a fragment on the Faceless Jade Venerable.

Yet the Flash-Star Demon just used one star to achieve what Deng Yu had exhausted all her resources to accomplish!

But seemingly... that's all it amounted to.

The shallow crackles and complete fracture are two entirely different concepts.

The Faceless Jade Venerable is already infinitely close to the Flash Star Demon!

Her flying speed, agility, strength, reaction... and all other attributes completely crush the Flash Star Demon.

How can one fight this?

On the Flash Star Demon's face, Lu Ran read two words—despair.

"Ah!!" The Flash Star Demon suddenly let out a sharp screech; despite having a male appearance, the scream did not fall short of that of a female Evil Demon.

"Buzz!"

The Flash Star Demon suddenly stopped, the whole body emanating a beautiful starlight, flashing abruptly in place!

In just an instant, the Faceless Jade Venerable pierced through the Flash Star Demon's body and continued to sprint ahead for tens of meters before stabilizing.

Flash Star Demon's Ultimate·Starlight Flashes!

Flash Star Demon and Star Official Sect have almost identical minor techniques, with only a slight difference in output methods.

Another difference between the two lies in their ultimate skills.

Star Officials, as third-class gods, possess the River Realm Ultimate·Yaoguang Star Disc, capable of randomly summoning various stars to crash down on the battlefield, indifferent to friend or foe.

Whereas the Flash Star Demon race has an ultimate skill during the River Realm that allows them to transform into brilliant starlight, flashing in place.

Note, they cannot use instant teleportation!

Just standing there, twinkle twinkle little star...

This technique can be used to dodge and resist enemy attacks, and unexpectedly surprise during close combat, giving Human Clan soldiers a hard time.

"Whoosh!" In the dazzling starlight, a phantom suddenly unfolded.

Divine Minion·Star Official!

When the Flash Star Demon activates its ultimate skill, it cannot move or perform other techniques, so the Star Official minion naturally steps up.

This phantom, also male in appearance, wore a square black gauze cap, draped in a wide blue robe embroidered with exquisite dark patterns.

The wide robe with big sleeves exudes an air of elegant grace.

Anyone who sees it would surely compliment its elegance!

As soon as the Star Official minion appeared, he summoned stars one by one, descending from the sky.

"Whoosh~"

The Faceless Jade Venerable appeared even more impressive!

As soon as she managed to stabilize herself, she immediately flew towards her prey, her wide jade robe fluttering in the wind.

The Star Official minion's face turned unsightly, frantically summoning stars to fall and noting the solitary youth dressed in a straw raincoat standing on a stone peak in the east.

He immediately said something to the Flash Star Demon.

The Flash Star Demon, no longer flickering, turned to flee as soon as it evaded the Faceless Jade Venerable, and upon hearing the Star Official minion's guidance, adjusted its direction again.

Flying straight towards the east!

"Diverting trouble eastward?" Bai Rao's expression was unkind.

"Human Believer, come with me to deal with the foreign enemy!" The Star Official minion shouted loudly, speeding up.

With you?

Lu Ran snorted coldly in his heart, "You've been beaten to the point of fleeing in desperation."

You really have the nerve, huh?

The minion's image, identical to that of the divine original, seemed utterly distressed, truly deteriorating their dignity!

In contrast, was the "graceful dance" of the Faceless Jade Venerable from behind.

Stars fell in succession; the Faceless Jade Venerable twisted and turned nimbly within the stars, without losing momentum in her pursuit.

Her form was graceful, yet her stance was unwavering!

Forming a stark contrast with the frantic escape of the God Demon's minion, like cloud and mud.

"Human Believer!" The Star Official minion barked harshly at the indifferent youth in the straw raincoat!

His eyes rounded in anger, extremely stern.

Lu Ran couldn't help but grin.

Unable to defeat the foreign enemy, yet quite adept at intimidating humans.

Well... makes sense.

Though a minion, its core identity stems from the divine, representing the divine, naturally holding a noble status, superior to the Human Clan.

What does it matter if they boss humans around?

"Young Master, should we help?" Yan Chou flitted beside Lu Ran.

Bai Rao furrowed her brows slightly, looking up at Lu Ran.

"Help?" Lu Ran scoffed.

Beneath his short hair, above the blood crystal mask, his pupils were exceedingly cold—not emitting the icy glint like the Flash Star Demon—but just as chilling as cold stars.

"Ugly Servant."

"Yes."

"Remember! After you follow me..." Lu Ran slowly drew out the Eight Desolate Blade, "Divine, Evil Demon, Faceless Jade Venerable, they are all the same."

Yan Chou's gaze was fervent, responding deeply, "Yes!"

Bai Rao's beautiful eyes sparkled as she couldn't help but extend her long red tongue, licking her lips.

"Tap."

Lu Ran, holding the Eight Desolate Blade, lightly patted her head with the blade hanging by his leg: "Jade Ruyi, Immortal Sky Python."

"Alright~" Bai Rao reached out and grasped a delicate Jade Ruyi.

Watching as the Star Official - Flash Star Demon minion drew ever closer, Bai Rao gently parted her red lips, breathing lightly onto the Jade Ruyi.

"Hiss!!"

The serpent's hiss reverberated through the heavens and earth!

A large white-scaled python roared out, piecing together as it charged fiercely ahead.

"You!" The Star Official minion's expression changed drastically.

The human believer is indiscriminate, attacking allies... attacking those representing the supreme God Demons on their own side?

The Flash Star Demon reacted quickly, instinctively flying to the side.

"Hiss!" The white-scaled python charged directly at the Faceless Jade Venerable, not turning to attack the two.

This scene slightly eased the Star Official minion's expression.

Looks like these lowly humans haven't forgotten their status, haven't defied the divine's order, they're following commands, attacking the Faceless Jade Venerable.

But at that moment, a figure appeared abruptly beside the Flash Star Demon.

Yan Chou, holding a spear pieced together from white clouds, thrust it forward fiercely.

Spear Withering Divine Skill·Cloud Cutting Spear Technique!

Instantly, countless spears made of white clouds converged into a torrent, roaring at the Star Official - Flash Star Demon minion!

The Star Official minion's face stiffened:!!!
