Chapter 289

Lu Ran moved his body slightly, feeling this vibrant body.

This feeling was limited to his intuitive perception.

Lu Ran knew that in places he couldn't see, his blood, flesh, meridians, and bones had all been tempered.

Just thinking about it, Lu Ran felt incredible.

He suddenly thought of something and said weakly: "Master Xianyang?"

The room was quiet, and there was no response in his mind.

Lu Ran asked to himself: "Can I also possess this kind of blessing ability?"

"Oh?" The sound transmission descended again.

It can be seen that Lu Ran's inquiry aroused a bit of the god's interest.

Lu Ran immediately said: "There is a God and Demon Sculpture Garden in my mind, with nearly a hundred gods in it.

As long as I activate one of the god statues, can I also bestow blessings?"

"Difficult."

"Difficult?"

For some reason, Xianyang changed the subject: "If the divine weapon domain of the Silent Night Blade is the same as the domain of other divine weapons, what should you do?"

Lu Ran frowned slightly and spat out a word: "Rob."

In this context, the so-called "robbing" does not distinguish between active and passive; it is more about being unable to help oneself.

Take Deng Yuxiang, for example.

She had no choice but to go to the appointment!

The Zhan Ye Great Blade is Deng Yuxiang's intimate comrade-in-arms, a divine weapon that completely belongs to her and requires her responsibility.

Deng Yuxiang herself is an extremely proud and powerful martial artist.

From any angle, it is impossible for Deng Yuxiang to retreat.

Once the divine weapon domains overlap, she can only compete with her opponent.

The low voice imprinted in his mind: "The ability to bestow blessings can only be possessed by a true god."

"True god?"

Xianyang was unexpectedly patient: "This beam of light I bestowed upon you, including the God Ruins you saw in Lord Bei Feng City before.

These abilities, rather than saying they are possessed by the gods themselves, are better described as symbols of identity."

Lu Ran was very puzzled: "Symbols of identity?"

Xianyang said lightly: "Whoever stands in that position can possess this ability."

Lu Ran nodded thoughtfully: "I see."

Xianyang: "And the gods in your sculpture garden are all false gods.

No matter how well you cultivate the god statues in the garden, they are still not in their positions and can only survive in your spiritual world."

"False gods." Lu Ran thought secretly.

Master Xianyang couldn't have mentioned the divine weapon domain for no reason.

Thinking about it, Lu Ran's heart moved, and he had a guess: "Master Xianyang, I understand!

My false gods, if they want to become true gods, they also have to rob something?

Something similar to the divine weapon domain?"

"A child who can be taught." Xianyang responded with satisfaction.

Lu Ran hurriedly said: "What is that?"

Xianyang: "Let's call it Godhead for now.

It determines how much power you can possess and determines your identity."

"Godhead..."

"Grow steadily, gain my recognition, and you will slowly come into contact with it."

"I understand." Lu Ran lowered his head.

Suddenly coming into contact with these secrets, Lu Ran's brain was a bit messy, and his heart was also a bit disappointed.

Xianyang: "Why this look?"

Lu Ran said embarrassedly: "I was thinking, if possible, in the future, I would also help Jiang Ruyi temper her body.

Let her also be reborn, and her cultivation speed will be faster."

Xianyang was silent for a long time, and the sound transmission fell: "Accepting a god's blessing is more than just faster cultivation speed."

Lu Ran: "Ah?"

In the low voice, there was a hint of playfulness: "The true purpose of rebirth lies in raising the cultivation ceiling."

Lu Ran's mouth opened into an O shape.

Raising the cultivation ceiling?

My god...

It's fundamentally raising a person's aptitude, right?

"Slap!" Lu Ran slapped his forehead.

That's right!

His whole body had been tempered, which was to break away from the mortal body to a certain extent.

The height he could reach was naturally higher, right?

This is simply "defying the heavens and changing fate"!

Take Deng Yutang as an example; under normal circumstances, he only deserves to be selected by the fifth-class god Red Scarf.

If before worshiping the god, Deng Yutang was blessed by a god and his aptitude soared, could he be recruited by a first or second-class god?

Theoretically speaking, it should be like this!

Of course, the actual operation is not feasible.

After all, Master Xianyang clearly stated that if Lu Ran had come earlier, he would have easily been blessed to the point of bleeding from seven orifices and having his body destroyed.

Lu Ran, as a River Realm powerhouse, was disliked by Master Xianyang for his fragile body.

If it were an ordinary person before worshiping a god, they would probably be blessed to the point of being smashed to pieces...

Xianyang's tone still carried a hint of playfulness: "You love her very much."

Lu Ran was shocked!

He never expected that such a sentence would come out of the god's mouth.

Lu Ran organized his language and said: "She is my most loyal partner and my most loyal comrade-in-arms."

After thinking about it, Lu Ran added: "I believe that in the future, she will also be my most devout believer."

"Heh." Xianyang gave a light laugh, as if seeing through Lu Ran's little thoughts.

Lu Ran scratched his head awkwardly.

He had originally thought that if he could activate a god statue and possess the ability to bestow blessings, he would definitely help Jiang Ruyi temper her body.

Now, the dream is shattered.

Lu Ran could only thicken his face and speak well of her to Master Xianyang.

For Jiang Ruyi, Lu Ran didn't mind losing this face.

He knew in his heart who would be the person to accompany him to the end.

Xianyang said lightly: "Jiang Ruyi is not like Chang Ying, let alone Si Xianxian.

The greed of the Spirit Sign will eventually break the believer's heart.

The evil deeds of Lietian will also devour the believer's life bit by bit.

You led the two out of the sea of suffering; they will naturally be grateful to you, and they have no way out, only devoutly worshiping you.

However, why should Jiang Ruyi follow you?"

Lu Ran's expression was stunned.

When human names appeared in the god's mouth, Lu Ran only felt it was extremely unreal!

Xianyang sneered: "Master Yu Fu treats Jiang Ruyi well; why do you think she would quit the Master Yu Fu faction and follow you instead?"

Lu Ran lowered his head silently.

Xianyang: "By your past? By your personality charm?

By the so-called emotions of you humans?"

Lu Ran was silent and did not respond.

Are human emotions really not worth mentioning?

Lu Ran didn't think so.

In this world, there are many ways to bond with each other: family, friendship, conflicts of interest, and so on.

Which way is nobler, and which mode is lower?

Setting aside the emotions that Master Xianyang sneered at, Lu Ran and Jiang Ruyi have the same background.

The two are human, have a common ultimate goal, and are a community of interests.

But at the same time, Lu Ran also realized a serious problem:

Master Yu Fu treats Jiang Ruyi well!

No matter what complex relationship Lu Ran has with Master Yu Fu, on Jiang Ruyi's side, the God Master Yu Fu has never failed her.

Although the essence of worshiping gods is the exchange of interests between humans and gods.

Gods provide humans with cultivation methods to fight against demons.

Every day humans live, they provide faith power to the gods.

After death, they also dedicate their souls to the gods to nourish the god stone statues.

However...

"She will follow you." Suddenly, the low voice came again.

"Ah?" Lu Ran was startled, "What did you say?"

Xianyang seemed not to want Lu Ran to worry anymore, and there was no playfulness in his tone, only seriousness:

"She will eventually follow you."

Lu Ran was a little confused; Xianyang's questioning still lingered in his ears, why did he suddenly change his tune now?

He hurriedly asked: "Why?"

Xianyang said lightly: "One day in the future, she will recognize the essence of this world."

Lu Ran frowned: "Essence?"

Xianyang: "You are walking on the right path; I am waiting for you to tell me this answer.

Similarly, when the day comes for you to uncover everything, you will also tell her."

Lu Ran opened his mouth, hesitated for a few seconds, and finally responded softly: "Yes."

Xianyang: "Jiang Ruyi is not my believer, but she will accompany you and help you fight against this world.

The blessing is not impossible.

It's just that..."

Lu Ran said nothing, listening carefully.

The low voice imprinted in his mind: "Wait until you learn the evil technique Mirror Flower Moon, can deceive the world, and bring her into this room, then we'll talk."

Lu Ran said in a deep voice: "Thank you, Master Xianyang, for your fulfillment!"

This time, there was no response.

Lu Ran waited for a long time, realizing that the god had left, and then he let out a deep sigh of relief.

With complex emotions, he just wanted to get some air.

He knelt and crawled two steps on the bed, pulled open the translucent bed curtains, and looked at the antique bedroom.

The wooden wardrobe had exquisite carvings on the corners.

On the Eight Immortals table placed against the wall, there was a vase with gorgeous flowers inserted in it.

Under the wooden window not far away, there was also a dressing table...

He thought about it, put on his shoes, and walked out.

Walking out of the bedroom, Lu Ran saw a small hall, and the furnishings were also exquisite.

On the other side of the hall, there was another room, perhaps a kitchen or a study?

Lu Ran didn't look, but pushed open the wooden door of the hall and saw the outside world.

The place he stayed in was actually a small courtyard with a private door, the fence wall was more than a meter high, covered with creepers, and flowers dotted it.

Lu Ran walked out of the courtyard gate, the surrounding trees were dense, and there was a small path under his feet, stretching into the mountain forest, not knowing where it led.

He turned his head and looked at the wooden plaque on the courtyard gate, which read three large characters—Lady Luo Xian Residence.

Lu Ran was suddenly shocked!

This mountain is called Lady Luo Xian Mountain.

This temple is called Lady Luo Xian Temple.

And this small house is actually called Lady Luo Xian Residence?

This... is this a place I can live in?

In his astonishment, Lu Ran's gaze swept over the plaque, and he kept looking up, seeing the back of the huge god statue.

It turned out that this small courtyard in the forest was located behind Master Xianyang.

"Little junior... hmm, Heaven's Pride Lu!" A voice came suddenly.

Lu Ran turned his head and saw a young woman.

She had a pair of beautiful eyes, fair skin, and a bun on her head.

This hairstyle, combined with her white robe, gave a feeling of a Taoist priest.

"You're awake." The woman looked happy, carrying a bamboo basket, and pushed open the courtyard gate.

"Who are you?" Lu Ran looked at the woman and smelled the aroma of food in the bamboo basket.

The woman stood still, holding the bamboo basket in front of her with both hands: "My name is Cheng Rou, and I am also a Xianyang believer."

Lu Ran tilted his head slightly, as if feeling something.

A moment later, he said: "Xia Guang said you were the one who sent me here."

Cheng Rou smiled and said: "Your divine weapons are very protective of their master, and their momentum is very strong, not letting others approach.

I also persuaded them for a long time before they let me help you up."

"Oh." Lu Ran also smiled: "No need to change your address, just call me little junior brother."

Cheng Rou's eyes were bright and clear, her smile gentle: "Okay."
