Chapter 475

Three days later, by the sea cliff.

Lu Ran was meditating and practicing with focused attention, the Eight Desolations Annihilation Blade lying flat on his knees, and an exquisite gourd nestled in his arms.

Taking advantage of the Ran Sect's two protectors advancing, Lu Ran and his weapons and artifacts were crazily absorbing the thick energy between heaven and earth.

In such a cultivation environment, it was impossible for the growth speed to be slow!

Suddenly, Lu Ran felt again that someone was calling him in the dark.

It should be Sister Xian.

After all, the Great Da Da Mengyan was still advancing, and Lu Ran had been connected to the Evil Shadow Protector the whole time.

Lu Ran immediately accepted the "voice call," and a sentence was immediately imprinted in his mind:

【Young Master~~~】

The long tone she deliberately dragged out made Lu Ran grin.

Good fellow!

This little voice is truly sweet~

Lu Ran could imagine the sweet smile on Sister Xian's face.

【Did you succeed?】 Lu Ran probed.

【Haha, I'm at the River Estuary Realm again!】 Si Xianxian was very excited, jumping for joy, 【Finally, I don't have to eat fish jerky anymore~】

Lu Ran also revealed a smile and exhorted: 【Congratulations! The Great Da Da Mengyan is still advancing, and the divine power within the cliff is abundant. Don't slack off; take the opportunity to consolidate your own realm well.】

【Mm-hmm, thank you, Young Master, for saving me from fire and water! Even if this little woman has to work like an ox or a horse for you, I will repay your great kindness.】 Si Xianxian transmitted with a smile.

Lu Ran: "..."

Si Xianxian: 【Why is there no sound? Why, don't you believe me?】

Lu Ran curled his lips: 【Hurry up and practice well, you little rookie at the River Estuary Realm, First Stage! And you call yourself a Ran Sect protector; I can't even show you off...】

Si Xianxian's little face immediately fell: 【Do you think I'm embarrassing you?】

Lu Ran hummed: 【When we first met, I was at the Stream Realm and you were at the Jiang Jing; now I'm at the River Estuary Realm, and you've only just left the Jiang Jing.】

Si Xianxian's temper flared up instantly, her beautiful big eyes almost spitting fire: 【Young Master! Have I given you too much face?】

The good mood brought by her advancement instantly vanished without a trace.

Detestable guy!

Every sentence really stabs into one's heart!

Si Xianxian gritted her teeth: 【Come, come, come, tell me where you are! I'll drive the Blazing Fire Heavenly Kui to find you!】

【No time! Not seeing you! Hurry up and practice!】 Lu Ran decisively cut off the connection.

Si Xianxian was indeed only at the early stage of the River Estuary Realm; within the Holy Lingshan territory, she really didn't count for much.

But she was a Lie Tian believer!

More accurately, Si Xianxian was the person who was going to replace Lie Tian's divine position.

The four words "slaughtering across realms" were prepared for her! If this girl went crazy, she could really kill even a Sea Realm expert...

"Whoosh~" Lu Ran exhaled, calming his mood.

Playfulness aside, now that Si Xianxian had successfully advanced, Lu Ran could be considered to have gotten rid of a worry.

This meant that her body had already recovered.

She had a clear and definite goal, and her state of mind had also been stabilized again.

It had to be said that humans were indeed the lowliest existence, and the price of resisting the gods was incomparably tragic!

Si Xianxian's active tearing up of the contract with the god had caused too great a backlash to herself.

Lu Ran also had reason to believe that it was precisely because of his trip to the sea this time, cultivating the Divine Sculpture to advance, which made Si Xianxian continuously merge with the Divine Sculpture and become more and more compatible, that she was completely recovered.

"Good, it's good that she's recovered." Lu Ran murmured.

Si Xianxian had completely said goodbye to her tragic past! For the rest of her life, she would have no more shackles and could stride forward without any worries, ascending step by step!

Eventually, she would transform into that mad immortal.

A smile appeared on Lu Ran's face again; holding the hilt in one hand and the Little Chifeng Pattern Gourd in his arms, he devoted himself to cultivation.

It took Si Xianxian 3 days to break through from the Jiang Jing to the River Estuary Realm.

And for Deng Yuxiang to break through and advance to the Sea Realm, it would take 5 to 10 days.

These five to ten days were the stage where Deng Yuxiang would benefit the most.

Divine power would continuously expand her meridians, nourish every inch of her flesh and blood, and enhance her physical strength.

Therefore, from the moment she broke through the cultivation bottleneck, the longer her advancement took, the more beneficial it would be for her!

The only problem was that this was Holy Lingshan!

The longer your advancement took, the more likely you were to encounter attacks from villains.

On the sixth day of Deng Yuxiang's advancement, something happened!

Lu Ran, who was already on pins and needles, suddenly received a telepathic message from Yan Shuangzi.

【Sect Master!】

【What's wrong?】 Lu Ran's heart skipped a beat; the Evil Shadow Protector had always been very quiet and generally wouldn't speak easily.

Who would have thought that Yan Shuangzi would transmit: 【This subordinate has touched a cultivation bottleneck; I am reporting it to the Sect Master.】

Lu Ran:???

The mist brought by the Great Da Da Mengyan's advancement was quite astonishing in volume; those mist tornadoes were still connecting heaven and earth!

Cultivating in such an environment, the Ran Sect members naturally achieved twice the result with half the effort.

The problem was...

Lu Ran vaguely remembered that Yan Shuangzi had returned to the River Estuary Realm in late March, and now it was late June.

In just three months, she was going to advance again?

This cultivation speed was not inferior even to Lu Ran's!

Wait a minute!

Lu Ran suddenly remembered that Yan Shuangzi had fallen from the River Estuary Realm, Second Stage.

Could it be that because she was rebuilding her Dao heart and re-walking the path of cultivation, she would be more skilled and rapid?

【That's a good thing!】 Lu Ran suppressed his thoughts and responded, 【Hand over your work to Jing Hong, then come to the sea cliff; I'll lend you the little Little Chifeng.】

Yan Shuangzi hesitated: 【The Da Da Mengyan Protector is advancing, should I...】

【It doesn't matter!】 Lu Ran interrupted forcefully, 【Cultivation improvement is the top priority! If you are slow by one step, you are slow by every step!

The only thing that can make you deliberately delay your growth is if you yourself are not ready.】

Yan Shuangzi's fate had already been tragic enough.

Since she followed him so loyally, he was unwilling to let her suffer any more grievances.

Yan Shuangzi pursed her thin lips and responded in a low voice: 【Yes.】

Lu Ran was silent for a moment and transmitted: 【Sister Yuxiang will definitely be very happy to know that you have regrouped and made rapid progress.】

【Yes!】 Yan Shuangzi responded in a deep voice.

"Things are getting better." Lu Ran picked up the Little Chifeng Pattern Gourd and weighed it in his palm.

The advancements were coming in a string.

The overall strength of the Ran Sect was improving at a speed visible to the naked eye.

As the Sect Master, how could Lu Ran not be happy?

Half a minute later, Yan Shuangzi appeared quietly at Lu Ran's side, her head lowered, kneeling on one knee.

Lu Ran handed over the treasure gourd: "Focus on the breakthrough; this is the only thing you should do right now. Providing you with a stable environment is something I should consider."

Yan Shuangzi took the Little Chifeng Pattern Gourd, hid her face in the brim of her bamboo hat, and nodded silently.

"Go, I'll wait for your good news."

"Yes!" Yan Shuangzi disappeared and left.

Lu Ran sat quietly for a moment, slowly stood up, and took a deep breath.

It had been nearly half a year since he arrived in this Holy Lingshan Realm.

Lu Ran had created a foundation; originally he only had Deng Yuxiang by his side, but now many loyal and like-minded people had gathered around him, and everything was on the right track.

When he first arrived and was at his weakest and most helpless, this cruel world could not stop him from gaining a foothold.

And it couldn't suppress his momentum of rising!

From now on...

Lu Ran raised his head, his firm gaze seeming to pierce through layers of mist to see the firmament.

From now on, you definitely won't be able to stop me either!

Lu Ran stood with his hands behind his back, crazily absorbing the energy between heaven and earth.

A Dao heart shone brightly, shining and growing vigorously in a place no one knew.

Time passed bit by bit, and the sky gradually darkened.

"Hiss..."

Suddenly, in the eastern sky, a dragon roar faintly came.

Lu Ran opened his eyes abruptly.

Was this sound the Raging Sea Flame Flood Dragon?

The sea area to the east of Cloud Sea Cliff had already been controlled by Lu Ran's Ink Carp team and Sea Jiaoren team; it was indeed difficult for demons in the sea to break through.

The only ones who could break through were demons like the Raging Sea Flame Flood Dragon.

They liked living on the sea and were entrenched in the sky.

Entrenched in the sky?!

Lu Ran's heart stirred, and he gripped the Eight Desolations Annihilation Blade: "Eight Desolations, is our battle with the Raging Sea Flame Flood Dragon considered aerial combat?"

"Sect Master?" In the mist in the distance, Luo Ying's voice came.

"Divine General Luo, hold your post; I'll go take a look!" Lu Ran shouted, and his figure flickered and disappeared.

After three consecutive teleports, Lu Ran arrived at a position three kilometers away, standing between the sky and the sea.

"Hiss!!"

The dragon roar shook heaven and earth.

In the hazy eastern sky, a giant dragon was flying over.

It was hundreds of meters long, and its scales were all blood-red!

That massive body seemed to want to dye the entire sky blood-red.

Those huge dragon eyes were staring fixedly at the direction of Cloud Sea Cliff; the target of the assault was quite clear!

And the Raging Sea Flame Flood Dragon flew extremely fast, not paying any attention to such an insignificant existence as Lu Ran.

Lu Ran turned his head to look behind him.

Cloud Sea Cliff was shrouded in mist, and there were mist tornadoes connecting heaven and earth; it was indeed very eye-catching, wasn't it?

"Roar!!"

The Raging Sea Flame Flood Dragon opened its bloody mouth, roaring angrily, charging forward recklessly.

Cruel and terrifying, its momentum was monstrous!

Lu Ran suddenly flew upward; he didn't choose to ambush but actively blocked the flight path of the Raging Sea Flame Flood Dragon?

"Hiss!!"

The Raging Sea Flame Flood Dragon finally saw the insignificant human.

But it didn't use any technique and continued to fly forward.

Thinking about it, that mighty and massive body would rumble over, and the tiny human would naturally be crushed to pieces.

"Eight Desolations, wake up."

Lu Ran slowly raised his blade.

Under the rolling thick clouds, the tiny human stood between heaven and sea, pointing his blade at the blood-colored giant dragon from afar.

The Raging Sea Flame Flood Dragon, hundreds of meters long, brought the blood-dyed sky and roared as it killed, as if it wanted to crush all things in heaven and earth.

The battle hadn't started yet.

This picture already had an epic feeling.

"On land, I took you to kill countless demons and slaughter many villains."

"In the deep sea, we also experienced fierce battles, and the blood of demons dyed patches of the sea bright red."

"This battle, Eight Desolations, will be our aerial combat!"

Lu Ran gripped the hilt tight; in his line of sight, the angry giant dragon was getting closer and closer.

The monstrous momentum rushed toward him, accompanied by the fierce sea wind, blowing his coir rain cape until it rustled.

In Lu Ran's eyes, the killing intent rose crazily!

Eight Desolations,

today, we will use this scalding dragon blood to wash your blade body well.

Eight Desolations,

it's time to wake up!
