Chapter 207: Said to Kill, and Killed It Was

Lu Ran stepped rapidly beneath his feet and suddenly darted toward the front-left.

"Woof!" The vicious dog leaped and pounced, opening its blood-filled maw wide.

It was evident that the vicious dog clan relied purely on instinct during combat.

When it fought, it had no method whatsoever; when it would use what technique possessed great uncertainty.

If the two sides were swapped, Lu Ran would absolutely not pounce forward to tear and bite the enemy; he would definitely directly fling out the Xie Fa · Evil Fangs.

"Baa~" Lu Ran stepped again beneath his feet, taking the opportunity to retreat diagonally backward.

Very abruptly, the vicious dog vanished without a trace.

"Rumble."

Waves of low growls came from behind Lu Ran, and the distance to his position was extremely close.

Even, Lu Ran felt that dog mouth was pressing against the back of his own head.

Lu Ran's pupils nearly contracted into the shape of needle points!

"Hiss—"

In the split second hanging by a thread, Lu Ran erupted with astonishing desire for survival.

He halted urgently and surged forward urgently; mist churned beneath his feet, and his body leaned toward the front.

The vicious dog's blood-filled maw was merely a few centimeters from Lu Ran's spine and fiercely bit at empty air.

To put it unpleasantly, it was simply that the vicious dog clan had low intelligence.

If this were changed to a Night Phantom possessing such a Shun Yi Ji Fa...

She appearing behind Lu Ran would absolutely not emit the slightest sound; she would only cleanly and decisively slice Lu Ran's throat!

Unlike this vicious dog, which at the moment before tearing and biting its prey, could not suppress emitting a throat sound, just as if reminding Lu Ran:

I am about to bite you~

"Caw!"

"Caw~~~" In the night sky, two circling crows exerted their full strength to cast spells.

The white mist churning beneath Lu Ran's feet resembled ocean waves.

And Lu Ran himself seemed like a small boat tossing amidst towering, terrifying waves.

Rocking back and forth, drifting to and fro.

The direction he dodged and the inclination of his body wished to change three times in one second.

It was purely dancing on the tip of a blade, truly a desperate fugitive!

Seeing such a scene, team leader Zhou Tian felt his heart pound with fear.

For such a miraculous and skillful performance, Zhou Tian and his comrades had no mind to appreciate or praise; in their hearts existed only extreme anxiety.

"Whine~ Whine."

The vicious dog let out a mournful howl; under the attack of invisible sound waves, its dog brain felt as if pierced by ten thousand needles.

It frantically twisted its body, its figure flashing on and off, just like a television with poor signal reception.

The image was especially bizarre.

"Hiss," Lu Ran inhaled a mouthful of cold air, his face contorted.

He too was heavily pricked by the "needles," so much so that even the scene before his eyes became somewhat blurry.

Only the thought of survival reminded Lu Ran to cast spells with all his might and flee in panic.

"Whoosh!"

In the pitch-black night sky, a giant hammer of flame suddenly lit it up!

"Aaaaaah!" In the wilderness, Si Si Xianxian raised one hand high and shouted angrily in a loud voice.

"Boom-boom-boom!!"

The giant hammer hovering in the high sky exploded with booming sounds; flames shot high upward, straight into the clouds.

Lie Tian Shen Fa · Red Earth for a Thousand Li!

In an instant, the temperature between heaven and earth continuously rose.

The water-flow armor covering Jiangjiang Ruyi's body emitted a sizzling sound, as if being roasted.

In fact, every living creature illuminated by the giant hammer's firelight was being scorched.

The difference lay in that the human believers had water-flow armor on their bodies, while the vicious dog clan had no armor to protect them, so their flesh and blood would sustain continuous injury.

"Flap-flap-flap~"

In the night sky, the two crows cried chaotically and were also being scorched.

In the state of having transformed into crows, the Lord Wu Ya Witch believers could not activate water-flow armor.

But at this moment, Si Si Xianxian could not worry about that anymore.

"Lie Huo Tian Kui!" Jiangjiang Ruyi floated diagonally behind Si Si Xianxian and flicked one hand downward.

The Quicksand Talisman fell onto the ground, transforming into a pool of Shahe; endless yellow sand churned open, rising and falling.

Si Si Xianxian's beautiful eyes were sharp and fierce; holding the black obsidian hammer, she used the hammer handle to fiercely strike the ground once.

"Whoosh!!"

In an instant, flames rose up from beneath Si Si Xianxian's feet and dyed her body.

In the blink of an eye, a magnificent statue of a flame goddess stood proudly in the wilderness.

The Shen Fa · Lie Huo Tian Kui, although it is a Pei De Shen Fa for the first segment of the River Realm, its effect is extremely terrifying!

This method also consumes divine power and physical strength extremely heavily, and once activated, it cannot be stopped voluntarily.

Only until the caster's physical strength is drained dry and the last trace of divine power is exhausted will the flames on the body dissipate.

And the efficacy of this method is also quite simple and crude—amplify Shen Fa output!

If you wish to savor the thrill of slaughtering across realms,

If you desire to become a devotee of ultimate explosive damage output,

Then, the Divine Lie Tian will be your only choice!

The Lietianyi Sect was born solely for slaughter!

Slaying enemies,

And slaying oneself!

"Prepare Liehuo Liehuo Tiankui," Jiangjiang Ruyi commanded loudly, raising her voice even higher, "Lu Ran!!"

"Uh," Lu Ran propped up his muddled head, tumbling and crawling until he finally found the right direction.

After both the man and the dog suffered the sonic impact, Lu Ran actually gained a brief moment to catch his breath.

Facts proved that the Evil Dog's Xie Fa, the Evil Consciousness, was indeed of a higher grade, far more severely injured than Lu Ran.

The Evil Dog flickered repeatedly, vanishing to who knows where.

The Rosy Light Blade and the Cool Night Sword, which were pursuing it, lost their target.

"Hiss—"

Lu Ran dared not delay; forcing his spirit awake, he darted toward Jiangjiang Ruyi's direction.

In his line of sight, yellow sand filled the air, and shifting dunes rose and fell.

A supremely beautiful goddess statue of fire stood proudly amidst the shifting sands, wielding a Xiong Xiong burning heavy hammer.

"Ru-Jiang Ruyi?" Si Si Xianxian's voice trembled slightly.

Had it been anyone else, she would not have minded smashing them down with one hammer strike.

But this was Lu Ran!

All along, Si Si Xianxian had no teammates, not even a single friend.

As a Lie Tian devotee, wherever she went, all she felt was overwhelming malice.

It was disdainful gazes, disgusted expressions, and an atmosphere brimming with hostility.

And Lu Ran's appearance was a beam of light in her dark life.

That feeling was something others could never empathize with.

No one would know just how important Lu Ran was in Si Si Xianxian's heart.

But now, Jiangjiang Ruyi had ordered Si Si Xianxian to activate the Divine Art·Lie Huo Tian Kui, massively amplifying their damage output.

Not only that!

Jiangjiang Ruyi had also explicitly ordered her to bring the heavy hammer down in the direction Lu Ran was running toward!

"Jiang Ruyi?" Si Si Xianxian watched Lu Ran drawing closer and called out once more.

Jiangjiang Ruyi was terrifyingly calm, her voice icy cold: "The enemy is a Jiang Jing Evil Dog, possessing the He Xin Xie Fa, Evil Shadow Flash."

Injury, or death.

We have no second choice."

Indeed, compared to the result of death, Lu Ran suffering heavy injuries was naturally more acceptable.

Jiangjiang Ruyi's voice was ice-cold, but that was merely how she appeared on the surface.

Thinking of what was about to happen, her heart was bleeding.

But everyone had to do this; everyone saw clearly how perilous Lu Ran's situation was.

Lu Ran could not be this lucky forever, escaping death time and again.

Death truly happens in an instant.

"Baa!!" From afar, a sheep's bleat suddenly rang out.

Si Si Xianxian's eyes widened abruptly, instantly plunging into an inner struggle.

The pitiful cry of the fragile youngling made her wish to tear Lu Ran apart with her own hands.

Yet their deep foundation of affection made her desperately suppress her sadistic urges.

Si Si Xianxian could hold herself back, but the Evil Dog could not!

The severely injured Evil Dog had already fallen into a state of madness.

It did not even know where it had flickered to; upon hearing the sheep's bleat, the Evil Dog disregarded everything and teleported straight there alone.

"Woof!"

The Evil Dog, mouth agape like a bloody basin, appeared ten meters behind Lu Ran.

"Liehuo Liehuo Tiankui!" Jiangjiang Ruyi shouted in alarm.

"Liehuo Liehuo Tiankui!" Lu Ran roared sharply.

"Ah!!" Si Si Xianxian, wielding the heavy hammer, viciously smashed it forward.

Divine Art·Liehuo Liehuo Tiankui!

"Boom-rumble!!"

The great earth trembled, and raging flames churned.

A Xiong Xiong sea of fire, fierce and tremendous like a tidal wave, surged forward.

"Baa~~~"

Lu Ran let out a shout, mist churning beneath his feet as he charged straight into that towering wave of flames.

High in the sky, the crow stared blankly at Lu Ran, forgetting even to flap its wings.

Time seemed to freeze at this very moment.

The little lamb used itself as bait, charging into the terrifying fire wave unleashed by the Lie Tian devotee.

Behind, the nearly mad Evil Dog, completely dominated by violent qi, opened its mouth to tear and bite.

At this moment, the vicious dog could not possibly retain any sanity.

Yet, just as it lunged forward, it unleashed the Xie Fa: Vicious Teeth!

It's over.

Zhou Tian felt as if the sky itself had collapsed!

Lu Ran, the pride of Rain Alley City, with his momentum of rise, would very likely become the pride of the entire Great Xia in the future.

That was why Zhou Tian had used his life to buy Lu Ran a possible chance to escape.

Yet Lu Ran did not leave; whether out of stubborn pride or returning kindness for kindness.

Not only did Lu Ran not leave, he even attempted to save everyone.

And such a choice of his would completely seal his fate—hmm?

"Whoosh!"

Lu Ran's figure halted abruptly!

Yes, Lu Ran had simply stopped dead in his tracks, without a shred of inertia.

However fierce his forward momentum and how fast his speed had been before, that was exactly how abrupt his stopping appeared now!

In this critical moment between life and death, Lu Ran could not possibly hold anything back.

Ye Mei Xie Fa: Night Dance Toppling the City!

Amidst the thick immortal mist, wind sprang forth beneath Lu Ran's feet, allowing him to forcibly plant his stance firm!

Two rows of vicious teeth instantly materialized before Lu Ran, snapping shut fiercely.

Shock upon shock, peril upon peril!

"Ah!" Zhou Tian cried out in a trembling voice, his mood like riding a rollercoaster.

However, before he could even catch his breath slightly, Lu Ran actually darted forward again?!

Was this tidal wave of fire something that simply had to be breached?

Was this life something that simply had to be crippled here?

"Baa! Baa!! Baa!!!"

Lu Ran shouted wildly, immortal hooves rising again beneath his feet, desperately urging the water-flow armor on his body as he plunged headfirst into the sea of fire.

"Woof! Woof!!"

The vicious dog, completely devoid of reason, was already charging wildly, and now it leaped forward with its whole body!

A crisp "Snap!" rang out.

In the night sky, a Frost Talisman rushed ahead and smashed directly onto Lu Ran's body.

Yu Fu Shen Fa: Frost Talisman, which ought to be a control-type spell, was forcibly made by Jiangjiang Ruyi to produce a defensive effect.

Lu Ran's body was rapidly coated in frost as he charged alone into layer upon layer of flames.

In an instant, Lu Ran's forward momentum plummeted, nearly being flipped away by the fire waves.

"Sizzle~"

The frost covering Lu Ran's body melted instantly, and the water-flow armor draped over him was also vaporized clean in the blink of an eye.

However, what no one could see was—

Amidst the layers of the sea of fire, a night-traveling garment rapidly materialized on Lu Ran's body.

Ye Mei Xie Fa: Night Charm Garment!

"Crack! Crack!"

The River-grade Night Charm Garment truly possessed formidable defensive power.

Alas, it had encountered the ultimate output of the Lietianyi Sect!

The bamboo hat, black gauze, and night-traveling garment were all covered in cracks, bursting apart one after another.

It was precisely at this moment that the churning quicksand below directly dragged Lu Ran into the earth, burying him alive.

"Whine~~"

The vicious dog, completely deprived of intelligence and charging wildly, was blasted away by the tidal wave of flames, its mind going blank.

After all, it lacked immortal hooves and had merely leaped forward with its body, which was why it was blown away so cleanly.

The vicious dog simply possessed no defensive techniques.

In other words, it did not even have half a second of damage exemption.

The churning tidal wave of flames exploded with a boom, not only making the vicious dog's brain dizzy but also filling its mouth and coating its entire body in fire.

From the inside out, everything was scorched and charred.

What was even more terrifying was that Jiangjiang Ruyi's output was incredibly continuous.

The Frost Talisman went first, attaching to Lu Ran, while the Lightning Shackling Talisman followed later, exploding at the edge of the fire wave and expanding into a lightning sphere with a diameter of fully 5 meters.

"Sizzle~"

Tiny lightning snakes crawled all over the vicious dog's body, its form becoming utterly rigid and convulsing uncontrollably.

"Whoosh~"

"Whoosh!!" The Xia Guang Dao and Liang Ye Sword, having chased all the way, drew an X-shape within the lightning sphere.

In the instant the vicious dog was blasted backward, one blade pierced through the dog's head, and one sword penetrated through the dog's body.

Blade light and sword shadows flew, while streams of blood shot forth.

At the same time, beneath the quicksand, within the earth.

Lu Ran, whose consciousness was blurring, received the thoughts transmitted by the Xia Guang Dao.

Heh,

Lu Ran bared his teeth in a grin, only to have his mouth filled again with quicksand.

Jiang Jing?

Said to kill, and so he was killed.
