Chapter 396

With a "thump!"

Gao Shanjun held the woman and knelt toward Lu Ran: "I'm sorry, my lord, we were blind; please spare our lives.

We know some information about this realm!

We are willing to be driven by you, to serve you, please... please spare our lives."

Lu Ran frowned slightly.

He had lived for 19 years; where had he ever heard such words?

The person in front of him was, after all, a River Estuary Realm expert; how could he be so shameless!

Although the other party performed such a great courtesy, the malice in Lu Ran's heart did not decrease in the slightest.

I spare your lives?

When you ambushed me and surrounded me, did you ever think of sparing my life?

Lu Ran asked directly: "What about that old guy?"

Gao Shanjun lowered his head, his face bloodless: "We split up... we split up and ran."

"Which direction?"

"That way." Gao Shanjun hesitated for a moment, pointing to the northeast.

The Nu Sha female disciple looked at Gao Shanjun in disbelief, as if she were re-recognizing the person in front of her, seemingly unable to understand why he would betray his companion.

Lu Ran felt that these two were acting; he said in a low voice: "You want to die."

"Really, I didn't lie to you! Absolutely didn't lie to you!" Gao Shanjun said hurriedly, "I swear in the name of Lord Nu Sha!"

Lu Ran felt disdain.

So, the information this person gave was accurate?

The woman's reaction was also real?

Lu Ran ordered: "Activate Divine Technique · Nu Sha Dance."

"Ah?" Gao Shanjun's expression was stunned, looking up at Lu Ran.

Lu Ran didn't want to waste words: "Either activate it, or die now."

Gao Shanjun's expression changed repeatedly, a layer of cold sweat appearing on his forehead.

"My patience is limited." Lu Ran said coldly.

Gao Shanjun's heart trembled violently, subconsciously casting the spell, a huge Nu Sha afterimage spreading out from his body.

It is worth mentioning that this afterimage would not move along with the caster.

As a technique, the afterimage would only dance in place.

"Kneel here and wait for me to come back."

Lu Ran left an order and flashed away.

In the huge mountain forest, wanting to find a person was naturally as difficult as ascending to heaven.

But the name "Lu Ran the Dog" wasn't called for nothing!

Sniff~

Just as Lu Ran transformed into a police dog, he suddenly heard a huge commotion coming from far behind.

He turned his head to look, his gaze narrowing slightly.

High in the sky, a huge blade appeared!

Was this the Lord Bei Feng faction's River Estuary Realm ultimate move · Lord Bei Feng Divine Blade?

No!

This was the Night Charm clan's River Estuary Realm ultimate move · Night Charm Evil Blade!

Seeing that giant blade, over a hundred meters long, slash down fiercely, the momentum was astonishing, and the earth trembled violently.

The terrifying wind wave almost leveled the surrounding mountain forest.

【Sister, are you okay?】

【Remember to come back and collect the souls.】 The woman's voice imprinted into his mind.

Lu Ran felt settled, continuing to track the old man while dropping a voice transmission to explain a few things.

Deng Yu Xiang did not execute the order immediately but asked in her mind:

【Which direction? I'll help you chase together.】

【No need, I found him!】 Lu Ran licked his lips, looking at the figure fleeing in a panic ahead, his figure flashing again.

"Ah!" The elderly Nu Sha believer's face turned livid, and he stopped abruptly.

Directly in front, that strange youth had appeared after all.

Lu Ran raised both hands, slowly drawing two blades from above his shoulders.

One was Eight Desolations Total Annihilation, the other was Cloud Sea Dust Clearing.

His expression was gloomy, malice churning in his heart: "Nu Sha taught you God-Ghost Entanglement, and you use it to run away?"

Divine Technique · God-Ghost Entanglement, the effect is equivalent to the Mad Dog Evil Technique · Evil Agility.

Because of this technique, the Nu Sha faction is known for its "speed and agility."

On the battlefield, the movement speed and attack speed of Nu Sha believers are a cut above other factions!

"Little friend!" The old man's face was covered in wrinkles, revealing an ugly smile, "This old man was coerced by those Prisoner Demon disciples, which led to this great mistake.

Today I was reckless and offended you, little friend; this old man is here to apologize to you."

Lu Ran snorted coldly in his heart.

Coerced?

You really just say anything; do you even believe it yourself?

Come to think of it, it's true that birds of a feather flock together.

This old guy, his style is very similar to that spineless youth from before, right?

Seeing that Lu Ran didn't attack immediately, the old man hurried to say: "This old man has lived in this realm for decades and can be considered to have some knowledge.

If you don't mind, this old man is willing to tell you everything, and from now on, follow by your side and serve you like a dog or horse.

I implore you to show mercy..."

"Activate Nu Sha Dance." Lu Ran said suddenly.

The old man's face, which had just relaxed, stiffened again.

Once this technique is activated, it won't be long before he becomes a weak lamb, ready to be slaughtered!

It's equivalent to completely handing his life over to the other party!

Lu Ran looked straight at the old man: "Didn't you want to serve me like a dog or horse? Start now."

The old man's smile was very forced: "Little friend, today's matter..."

"3!" Lu Ran interrupted directly.

The old man's breathing stalled slightly!

"2!" Lu Ran's legs bowed slightly.

"Hum~" A figure suddenly appeared beside the old man, identical to him.

Nu Sha Divine Technique · Evil Shadow!

This clone clearly had a physical form.

But seeing the clone move sideways one step, its figure instantly blurred, actually merging with the old man.

Nu Sha Divine Technique · Evil Shadow Follows!

Without waiting for Lu Ran to finish the countdown, the old man had already abandoned his fantasies and prepared to fight!

Quite decisive.

Lu Ran's figure flashed, appearing behind the old man's side.

With a crisp "ding!"

The old man didn't turn around, but the blade Lu Ran slashed down was blocked by the old man's phantom.

The phantom held a pair of illusory blades of evil, energy covering the short blades, trying its best to block Lu Ran's attack.

However, Lu Ran's posture was unusually tough!

The Eight Desolations Total Annihilation blade in his hand continued to press down forcefully, the blade tip forcibly tearing open the old man's water-flow armor.

Competing in strength?

A phantom clearly wasn't qualified.

If the phantom and the old man's true body came together to resist, perhaps they could make Lu Ran pause for a moment.

"Whoosh!!" A terrifying energy suddenly erupted from within the old man.

Immediately after, countless illusory blades of evil flew out from the old man's body.

Lu Ran reacted subconsciously, instantly flashing more than three hundred meters backward.

He stood beside a tree, looking at the terrifying scene in the distance, sighing in his heart.

Using an ultimate move upon meeting?

Clearly, that was the Nu Sha faction's River Estuary Realm ultimate move · Thousand Evil Blades!

"Old thing, truly decisive." Lu Ran curled his lips.

Countless illusory short blades were frantically ravaging everything around.

Trees were pierced full of holes, and the sounds of breaking and falling rang out one after another.

It must be said, the Nu Sha faction shouldn't have teammates.

Look at Divine Technique · Nu Sha Dance, it doesn't distinguish between friend and foe at all!

As long as they are within a certain range, everyone has to dance along with the Nu Sha afterimage.

Look again at the River Estuary Realm ultimate move · Thousand Evil Blades.

Once activated, who cares about the life or death of teammates?

Hmm... this technique is actually very suitable for blowing up the field?

Lu Ran tilted his body, leaning against the large tree beside him, lost in thought.

A single flash, killing straight into the heart of the enemy formation, and then activating such an ultimate move...

A living Yama King, that is.

While Lu Ran was thinking, the old man stopped casting the spell, vigilantly sizing up his surroundings.

Suddenly, there was a faint energy fluctuation behind him.

"Little friend!" The old man was shocked in his heart, hurriedly shouting to stop him, "Show mercy, I know I was wrong!"

Lu Ran could be considered to have opened his eyes.

Old thing!

While wanting to put someone to death, you also beg for mercy?

"You're quite cute!"

Lu Ran appeared directly behind the old man's side and slashed down with a blade.

"Ding!"

The blade edge touched the short blade.

But this time, Lu Ran's blade threw out four black mist lines.

Evil Spear Emperor's Evil Technique · Evil Cloud Entanglement!

This technique is very evil!

Once entangled by the black mist lines, the target will be restricted and unable to move freely.

Even more terrifying is that those black mist lines can penetrate the water-flow armor, soak into the target's body, and interfere with the target's spellcasting!

"You! You this?" The old man immediately felt the changes in his body, his expression extremely ugly.

"Hmph." Lu Ran grinned.

Aren't you agile and fast in attack?

Aren't you known as "God-Ghost Entanglement"?

Come,

let my Evil Cloud entangle you too!

"I am willing to surrender, little friend! I surrender..." The old man begged for mercy in shock, trying his best to resist.

He even had the intention to activate his ultimate move again.

But the black mist lines that had penetrated into his body were like vicious snakes, scurrying everywhere inside him, wreaking havoc frantically.

Stirring up the divine power in his body so it couldn't be at peace, and even making it difficult to mobilize!

"Too late." Lu Ran said indifferently.

"You cannot kill me, I know a lot of intelligence!" The old man was shocked and afraid, shouting loudly, "I know who is fighting in the sky!

I also know bigger secrets! I am more valuable alive!

You cannot kill me!!"

When death was imminent, the other party's voice was so shrill.

Lu Ran remained unmoved, his pair of horizontal pupils extremely cold:

"Do you think the dead cannot speak?"

The old man's pupils contracted violently!

Since the battle began, the strange youth in front of him had used evil techniques repeatedly!

Of course he could possess techniques to imprison and torture human souls!

Lu Ran's light words, heard in the old man's ears, completely shattered his fragile nerves.

"Ding! Ding! Ding!"

The blade edge touched the broken blade one after another.

Lu Ran's offensive was fierce; the old man's face was ashen, his spirit already gone, leaving only a steady retreat.

"Hiss!"

The Eight Desolations blade slashed across, and a head flew high into the air.

Lu Ran raised his hand, offering the Rebirth Coin on his wrist, temporarily collecting the old man's departed soul into the artifact.

"No! No!!"

The old man's soul screamed, terrified to the extreme, but there was nowhere to escape, and he could only fly into the ancient copper coin.

Lu Ran didn't even look at this old thing.

He rotated his wrist, repeatedly sizing up the Eight Desolations Total Annihilation blade.

"Whoosh~"

Lu Ran slashed downward, throwing the blood beads on the blade onto the ground.

"Now, the path of growth is clear."

"The so-called Eight Desolations refers to the distant places in all directions, but I named you Eight Desolations specifically to refer to the world after the Divine Ruins."

"Now, we are in this distant place."

Lu Ran gripped the blade handle tightly, looking at the cold, gleaming blade body: "Next, is Total Annihilation."

The Eight Desolations Total Annihilation blade was silent, with no reaction.

Lu Ran didn't care; he had plenty of patience.

He just fell silent and sighed lightly.

Lord Divine Sheep always said that this realm was extremely dangerous.

He had thought it was some powerful evil demon wreaking havoc, or some natural disaster that destroyed the world, making it difficult for the human race to survive.

As it turned out,

the so-called danger was actually people.

People with no grudges or enmity.

People who were revered by all living beings in the vast rivers.

People who should have fought side by side with Lu Ran to resist foreign enemies.

"Whoosh~"

Suddenly, a mountain wind blew, messing up his short, broken hair.

The corpse by his feet bled incessantly, staining his boot soles and sending a pungent smell of blood.

"Crack!" Lu Ran sheathed his blade and picked up the Blazing Phoenix Pattern Gourd at his waist.

He looked at the sea of clouds that covered the sky and drank deeply.

To the naive and innocent self of the past.

Farewell forever.
