The terrifying Fog Dragon Roll descended from the heavens.

A pristine Moon Shadow Heavenly Pool was swiftly covered by thick fog.

"Yuanxi, let's help him protect first," Guan Yiren said softly.

"Alright~"

As Qiao Yuansi's words fell, dense black fog spread from his body.

Guan Yiren immediately sensed something was amiss!

Though the world was filled with thick fog, Guan Yiren could naturally distinguish whether she was shrouded in white fog or black fog.

Guan Yiren questioned doubtfully, "Is this the Evil Technique of the Black Lantern?"

"Uh-huh! Sister Yiren, I have so much to tell you," Qiao Yuansi reluctantly released the woman's arm, "Let's talk in detail when we return to the Sect."

Sect?

Upon hearing this term, Guan Yiren couldn't help but feel a wave of loathing.

In the Holy Spirit Mountain Realm, she had seen many sects, all with strikingly similar styles, though stemming from the modern society, they seemed to regress to the feudal era.

It was precisely because she had seen enough, traveled enough, that she could discover a wonder like the Moon Shadow Heavenly Pool.

And only then did this meeting occur.

"I'll go to the southeast," Guan Yiren said, her feet revealing a long sword.

The main base of the Nether Toad clan was located southeast of the Moon Shadow Heavenly Pool, where the energy was now strong; the Nether Toads were likely to be drawn here.

"Swish~"

Yangyang Sea stepped on the flying sword, moving at an alarming speed!

While flying past Lu Ran, Guan Yiren suddenly realized something.

The sect Qiao Yuansi spoke of must have been founded by Lu Ran himself; how could it possibly be like any of the other sects in the mountain?

Ha.

With a silent laugh, Guan Yiren quickly flew to the edge of the fog.

The Third-rank Divine Weapon upgrading to Fourth Rank indeed brought quite a commotion; the Fog Dragon Roll it attracted was extraordinarily huge!

Guan Yiren turned around, gazing at the fog-shrouded world, gently gripping the sword's hilt with one hand.

This Heavenly Star Sword was named Heaven's Incline.

It was a First-rank Divine Weapon.

Its Divine Weapon Domain collided with another Divine Weapon, and to this day, Guan Yiren hasn't been able to find where the other Divine Weapon is.

The Heaven's Incline Sword seeking to advance to Second-rank Divine Weapon was naturally a distant prospect.

"Buzz~" The Heaven's Incline Sword lightly trembled, seemingly a bit aggrieved.

"If he can return to the human world, we could go back and take a look," Guan Yiren whispered softly, "Perhaps that Divine Weapon is in some predecessor's hand."

This was the best outcome.

With Guan Yiren's prowess realm and unique Sword Cultivator identity, few can withstand her attacks.

But if that Divine Weapon was up in the heavens...

Thinking of this, Guan Yiren's heart stirred; Lu Ran just said he was at the second level of Heavenly Realm.

He must have visited the Heavenly Realm, right?

What was it like there? Why does Lu Ran possess so many skills?

Carrying various doubts, Guan Yiren released 32 Flying Swords from her hand, each sword obediently moved according to her heart's thoughts.

At this moment, Guan Yiren did not realize, from the moment she saw Lu Ran, the immensely powerful Sword One Divine Technique was gradually distancing itself from her...

Divine Weapon upgrading has always been swift.

At the shortest, it took several minutes; at the longest, half an hour.

Under the guard of two Yangyang Sea, Lu Ran was completely focused, always standing motionless mid-air, exploring the brand new domain with the Eight Desolate Blade.

"Converge all energy at the blade's tip."

"Buzz!"

"Pierce through everything, penetrate everything...destroy everything!" Lu Ran held the blade with both hands, forehead tightly pressed against the blade, chanting.

"Buzz!!"

The Eight Desolate Blade's vibration suddenly increased, seemingly unable to suppress, a terrifying energy converged at the blade's tip.

Strangely, this energy was pitifully small, continuously compressing, existing only in a small area at the blade's tip.

Dazzling light radiated!

Multiple layers of energy spread suddenly from the blade's tip, horizontally, spawning web-like cracks.

"Crack!!"

It seemed as if time and space were ripped apart.

This "web" was equally radiant, a sheet of intense white!

It didn't mix with any other attributes, neither fervent nor chilling.

So pure, with no impurities whatsoever.

So pure that at this moment, Lu Ran's mind had no extraneous thoughts at all.

All the gods, demons, human and mountain realms, all dreams and ambitions, old friends and relatives, everything was erased at this moment.

In the world, only one thought remained:

Destruction!

"Heh..." Lu Ran abruptly opened his eyes, gasped, confused by what happened to him.

"Whoosh!!"

A fierce wave of wind spread out in all directions.

At the same time, a colossal force attacked.

Lu Ran's hands were directly jolted open, the Eight Desolate Blade with a terrifying sound of air breaking, shot straight upwards.

[Eight Desolates?]

The Eight Desolate Blade abruptly halted, suspended high in the sky.

Yet Lu Ran, despite being at the second level of the Heavenly Realm, speaking solely on strength attribute, couldn't hold the Fourth Rank·Eight Desolate Blade?

Fourth Rank,

Does it correspond to Divine Grade?

The Eight Desolate Blade slowly descended, its handle voluntarily fell into Lu Ran's palm.

"Yes~!" A joyful cheer from little Yuanxi resounded below.

This was too seamless, wasn't it?

At most, could that have taken eight minutes?

One kilometer away, Guan Yiren, who was patrolling back and forth, noticed the fog rapidly dissipating and immediately looked toward the Moon Shadow Heavenly Pool.

The starry sky reappeared, cool moonlight sprinkled over the snowy mountain peaks.

Also falling on the youth wielding the blade up in the air above the pool.

Guan Yiren's heart lightly trembled within.

Some people are more suited to be admired from afar, silently appreciated.

Unfortunately, the young man didn't give her much time; suddenly he turned around in her sight and beckoned her over.

Guan Yiren abandoned a few Nether Toads below, flew with her sword, and quickly returned.

"Let's go; let's first get away from this place." Lu Ranfei landed by the lakeside, summoning an ancient bronze mirror in his hand.

Qiao Yuansi pouted.

She had been celebrating all along, yet her brother never responded and didn't even introduce the newly upgraded Divine Weapon. The first thing he said was to retreat?

Qiao Yuansi felt dissatisfied in her heart, muttering rapidly, "Master of Ran Sect's strength is so powerful it can slay gods, but he's overly cautious, hiding from even insignificant Mountain Realm mobs."

"Uh?" Lu Ran's face looked awkward.

No wonder you're a Beijing socialite!

This little talker, won't she catch her breath?

What Xiaoyu said wasn't wrong; with Yangyang Sea, one could strut around within Holy Spirit Mountain.

Not to mention the majestic heavens.

However, Lu Ran was used to being cautious; his mindset was hard to change, and his first thought after successfully upgrading with the Divine Weapon was to quickly leave this place.

"You still want to see the Heavenly Pool?" Lu Ran turned to look at his sister.

Qiao Yuansi huffed, "Let's go back, let's go back. Just as well, I have loads to say to Sister Yiren!"

"Alright." The ancient bronze mirror in Lu Ran's hand transformed into a landing mirror.

"Let's go, Sister Yiren~" Qiao Yuansi hugged Guan Yiren's arm and led her towards the mirror.

Lu Ran followed closely behind, and with one step, he was at Heaven's Edge.

"Brother, I'll take Sister Yiren to my place first!"

"Go ahead." Lu Ran naturally didn't want to disturb the reunion of the two girls, so he waved with a smile.

Guan Yiren nodded, gesturing as she was dragged away by Qiao Yuansi.

Lu Ran stepped to the edge of the cliff, sat down, and patted the Eight Desolates Blade: "You just surged up high, where are you planning to go?"

[The Eight Desolates just leveled up, couldn't control the strength well, will adjust to fit the master's power in the future.]

Lu Ran: "..."

You curse so elegantly~

[Request the master for a name for the Divine Weapon Domain!] The Eight Desolates Blade said solemnly.

"I have to think it over; your Divine Weapon Domain is extraordinary." Lu Ran sighed, "When I just leveled up, I felt pure."

"Buzz!" The Eight Desolates Blade trembled heavily.

Indeed so!

Destruction requires the utmost desire for breakdown, requires the purest of thoughts.

Lu Ran pondered for a while before a sudden thought struck him: "Hold up, I'll call in reinforcements."

Then he closed his eyes and connected spiritually with the Dragon Stone Sculpture.

[Mr. Cong Long?]

[What orders does the sect leader have?]

[It's like this...] Lu Ran briefly explained the situation, and Yu Changsheng marveled at what he heard.

In the Sculpture Garden, the Dragon Stone Sculpture held a huge stone fan, gently fanning, swaying its head:

[Lonely blade pierces myriad obstructions, dot shattering the firmament.]

Lu Ran looked troubled: [It's apt, but isn't the domain name a bit too long?]

Yu Changsheng awkwardly twitched his mouth, speaking tenderly: [I didn't name it; it was just a spontaneous feeling.]

[Oh.] Lu Ran scratched his head, [The Eight Desolates Blade's first domain is called Eight Directions Annihilation, the second domain is called Three Calamities Annihilation, please select a name similar in style, sir.]

[Let me think about it...]

Lu Ran no longer disturbed the strategist and played with the Eight Desolates Annihilation Blade in his hand, loving it ever more.

He's about to go slay the Evil God, Angry Sea Flame Flood Dragon, the perfect opportunity to try out this brand new Divine Weapon Domain.

But no, it's better to test it in advance; don't wait until the battlefield to make any mistakes.

Should he invite Fairy Jiang out and stab once to see if she shatters?

What if she does shatter?

Killing one's wife to achieve enlightenment?!

Thinking of his fiancée, Lu Ran immediately connected spiritually with the Evil God: [Ruyi?]

[Hmm.] The indifferent response made Lu Ran shiver.

[Xiaoyu and I just went to Moon Shadow Heavenly Pool, guess who we met?]

Jiang Ruyi suspected it might be Li Rouyin's brother, Hao Tian, but worried it wasn't, making Lu Ran feel melancholic.

She didn't respond, just silently waiting for the answer to be revealed.

[You're so cold; you don't want to guess.] Lu Ran muttered, and then said, [Guan Yiren! Remember? Xiaoyu's comrade.]

Jiang Ruyi was quite surprised yet felt it was reasonable.

Such outstanding individuals, indeed, should be thrown into Holy Spirit Mountain by the gods.

Only, Jiang Ruyi didn't have a good impression of Guan Yiren because she had seen the way Guan Yiren looked at Lu Ran in the Heavenly Pride forum.

[Planning to recruit her into Ran Sect?]

[With Xiaoyu as a connector, it's a given.] Lu Ran gently wiped the Eight Desolate Blade.

Niu Zhengzheng was recruited, so Guan Yiren surely can't be missed!

Regrettably, the Guan Niuwang trio still lacks a disciple from Qiang Xiu, Wang Ling.

Qiang Xiu isn't Sword One; Wang Ling, as Da Xia's genius, should be firmly held in the Human World by the gods.

[Once she becomes a disciple, leave her to me.] Jiang Ruyi said softly.

[Ah?] Lu Ran was a bit taken aback.

[You have four Great Protectors; I'll take four guards as well, Xuan Shuang, Liu Huo, Tian Tian, Yiren.]

[Wow~ You being the sister-in-law competes with Xiaoyu for people?]

[Why? You planning to have Guan Yiren inherit the Soul Hooking Horse and team up with Niu Zhengzheng to make Oxhead and Horseface?] Jiang Ruyi frowned slightly as she communicated.

She felt it was a waste.

Her feeling towards Guan Yiren is a minor concern; Lu Ran and Ran Sect's major undertaking is the real deal.

Guan Yiren, a character of Heavenly Pride level, should have a more fitting stone sculpture to inherit.

[It's not quite that.] Lu Ran's response made Jiang Ruyi nod quietly.

Then Lu Ran muttered: [From Heaven-level first Sword Cultivator falling straight to Sixth-level Evil God, Soul Hooking Horse, it would be a waste of Yiren's fighting prowess.]

Yiren?

Jiang Ruyi puffed up her cheeks; the forever cold Evil God finally showed a rare cute expression on that stern stone face.

Ha,

Certainly call closely.
