Summit of the Old Gods

"Hoo~"

The man in black opened a pair of Purple Lightning Roc Wings, swiftly flying upward and backward.

His face was gloomy as he watched the White-Scaled Giant Python rampantly wreak havoc, swallowing endless birds of lightning, transforming them into divine power, and absorbing them completely.

Heavenly Realm·Jade-faced Snake disciple?

Within the Holy Spirit Mountain Realm, no minions of the evil demons have reached the Heavenly Realm level, so the other party can only be from the Human Clan.

Retreating a step, even if there were a Heavenly Realm Evil Demon·Jade-faced Snake in the Holy Spirit Mountain, it would not help the Human Clan.

The man in black's expression changed repeatedly, and he then canceled his spellcasting.

The Jade-faced Snake clan can devour everything!

From divine techniques to evil techniques, to the flesh of enemies, even the souls of all creatures, it can swallow completely.

If he continued casting, it would only be a waste of divine power.

"Hiss..."

The sound of a snake's hiss pierced through the night, drifting far, far away.

The hoarse sound carried an aura of extreme danger, causing all beings to feel terrified and shiver.

Even the man in black, also at the Heavenly Realm, took steps back and back.

Indeed, he was a second-class believer of the Evil God·Purple Thunder Demon Roc.

But the other was a disciple of a first-class evil demon!

Those inside Tiangang City couldn't see the whole picture, unaware of how terrifying this sky-covering giant python was.

High in the sky, the man in black saw it clearly.

This White-Scaled Immortal Heavenly Python was 3000 meters long!

A mere coil of its body, a flick of its tail, would lead to the obliteration of Tiangang City.

However, the noble Jade-faced Snake clan doesn't engage in battles with physical bodies; all it needs is to spray a breath of immortal qi, and everything within this realm would dissolve completely.

Rivers and seas would leave not even a drop of blood behind.

As a Heavenly Realm warrior, the water flow armor's strength prevented him from being instantly killed.

But fighting against this clan allowed for a very low margin of error!

The Jade-faced Snake clan had "Immortal Scales" as absolute defense, and could crush everything with its gigantic python.

"Hiss!!"

The hissing became piercingly sharp, laden with a sense of warning.

To the man in black, it was a death threat!

"Heh, quite protective of your food." The man in black snorted coldly, turning to fly into the distant night.

If you want to eat, I'll let you have it.

The wings woven from purple currents granted the man in black unparalleled speed, disappearing into the distant night within a blink.

Lu Ran, being self-aware, did not pursue.

Besides, what lay before him was an even bigger trouble!

Having lost a second-class evil demon disciple, a first-class evil demon believer appeared?

But... something doesn't add up!

Lu Ran's face was grave.

He had activated the Jade-faced Snake Evil Sculpture early on, frequently using the clan's evil techniques.

And now, Lu Ran was also at the Sea Realm, yet he couldn't perform the Jade-faced Snake clan's River Realm technique, the White-Scaled Immortal Heavenly Python.

Unable to transform into a hundred or thousand meter-long python.

Lu Ran believed that when he transformed into a pure energy body, he should be able to perform it.

The Jade-faced Snake clan minions, appearing half-human half-snake, were inherently pure energy bodies, thus could transform at will.

But problems arose!

In the divine sequence, gods like Huang Que and the Witch Crow granted their disciples the ability to transform into small Huang Que or black crows.

This indicated that the human's flesh could change forms.

Could this be the difference between divine techniques and evil techniques?

In retrospect, many divine techniques from various divine sects allowed disciples to transform, whereas the numerous evil techniques at Lu Ran's disposal did not.

The greater issue was knowing why this human being could transform into the White-Scaled Immortal Heavenly Python?

Yes! Lu Ran confirmed, this was a fallen human believer of the demon path!

Because, the giant python silently shattered, forming wisps of immortal fog.

Amidst the spreading immortal fog, a white-robed woman gracefully descended, standing before the grand hall's entrance.

Within the city, some were terrified, some despairing, while others knelt, begging and sobbing.

As the giant python shattered and the woman appeared, a deathly silence enveloped the inside and outside of the hall, even the incessant cries were forcibly stifled.

The woman's demeanor was noble, with unrivaled charm.

Her long black hair was coiled high atop, her dignified face expressionless, even causing the Jade-faced Snake clan to feel inferior.

Her captivating eyes passed over them softly, like a divine statue overlooking all existence.

How could the beings dare even lift their eyes?

If possible, the people around the hall probably wished to halt even their breathing and heartbeat, afraid of disturbing the tranquility of the celestial being above.

Her gaze fell on a tall, burly middle-aged man, and her red lips parted gently:

"Tufeng, never expected to meet again in this life."

Tufeng was the real name of Peak Master Tufeng.

Tufeng remained silent, quietly gazing at the woman—Bai Rao.

The last meeting had been many years ago, in the Jade-faced Snake clan's stronghold.

Bai Rao's eyebrows raised faintly, nearly imperceptible, yet extraordinarily lively: "Was it your incompetence that angered the divine, implicating many, causing me to be demoted to the Mountain Realm by Master Jade-faced Snake?"

Tufeng spoke slowly: "How could it be a demotion, you should thank me for getting out of that place."

Bai Rao smiled gently, then asked: "Why not act?"

Tufeng: "And you, why save this group of ants?"

No one would believe that such a celestial-like presence would care about the small beings beneath them.

Bai Rao gave Tufeng a meaningful glance.

Before, one might have called it incompetence.

And now?

Helping Lu Tianjiao defend Tiangang City? If I didn't act, it'd be you fighting against the Purple Thunder Believer.

Oh, Tu Feng, you really have a lot of little schemes.

Not bad.

Kneeling for a lifetime, still daring to think, to try to stand up again.

In the midst of pondering, Bai Rao suddenly turned her eyes.

Liu Huo guard's body trembled slightly, the hand holding the Fiery Phoenix Patterned Gourd suddenly froze in mid-air.

While two Great Powers in the Heavenly Realm were negotiating, Liu Huo guard was still absorbing the citizens of Tiangang City.

That's quite bold.

"Thank you for your assistance." Wu Xiao timely landed in front of the great hall and said in a deep voice.

Bai Rao turned her gaze upon hearing this, feeling the opponent's aura, she somewhat acknowledged him in her heart.

This man, at an age of no more than thirty, had already reached the Sea Realm Peak.

Brave and calm, neither arrogant nor humble, it seemed he only needed an opportunity to advance to the Heavenly Realm.

Indeed, not bad.

But still not enough.

Bai Rao raised her eyes to look into the boundless night, her red lips gently parted: "I saved your Tiangang City, why has Lu Tianjiao sent someone to thank me instead of meeting in person for a talk?"

"Myself?"

Such a form of address is indeed rare.

Especially from the mouth of a high and unreachable "Divine Statue".

The entire great hall, inside and outside, was silent, many minds were active, secretly discerning a few inclinations from the words of the mysterious woman.

Whether it was sincere or bait, that remained unknown.

After all, this woman knew the true owner of Tiangang City, she must have obtained quite a bit of intelligence.

Wanting to slay someone like Lu Ran, who possessed a large number of Divine Techniques and Evil Techniques, was by no means an easy task.

Would Master Lu...take the bait?

Bai Rao spoke softly: "I am aware of quite a bit of your information, if I don't see Lu Tianjiao, I might just let something slip, hmm?"

"Thank you, senior, for rescuing Tiangang City." A deep and powerful young voice immediately sounded.

The beautiful eyes of the white-clad woman narrowed.

The next moment, in front of Wu Xiao, appeared a young man in a straw raincoat.

In an instant, this female Divine Statue became completely vivid!

Her beauty carried with it a terrifying divinity that profoundly instilled fear, yet now it added a hint of seductive allure that was completely at odds with her aura.

Her noble side quietly shattered.

Her eyes shone with a strange luster as she extended a bright red tongue, licking the corner of her lips.

The way she looked at Lu Ran was like seeing a delectable meal.

Lu Ran felt his scalp tingle!

This woman...

Bai Rao stepped towards Lu Ran.

"Halt!" Tu Feng sternly shouted, his entire momentum surging.

Bai Rao halted her steps, turned her head to look at Tu Feng, a playful smile tugging at her lips: "You surely didn't come to be an executioner, what if the Divine Ones found out, do you know the consequences?"

"Tu Feng, what audacity you have!"

Without saying a word, Tu Feng stepped forward, directly blocking Lu Ran, staring expressionlessly at Bai Rao.

"Hehe~" Bai Rao chuckled enchantingly, her eyes twinkling.

Suddenly, she tilted her head slightly, looking at the young man in the straw raincoat behind Tu Feng, speaking in a soft and sweet voice:

"Lu Tianjiao, my own courage is not small either~"

Lu Ran's expression froze.

Tu Feng slightly furrowed his brow, these words undoubtedly made it even clearer that Bai Rao knew a lot of Lu Ran's information!

So what was she planning to do...

Bai Rao suddenly turned around, walking towards the interior of the hall, swaying with grace.

From afar, the woman's words came: "Take your people and withdraw first, I'll wait for you here."

After speaking, she halted her steps, turned her head slightly, casting a sidelong glance back:

"The Pride of Da Xia, surely you should have this bit of courage? Don't let me wait too hard."

Lu Ran opened his mouth slightly, watching her walk into the hall.

Just how much did she know?

She said... her own courage is very big too?

Never mind, withdraw first!

Lu Ran immediately called out to the others: "Everyone, move quickly!"

Qin Yanzhi, who had already rushed over, restrained the shock in his heart and stepped forward: "Master, many people have already been moved a hundred miles away."

Qin Yanzhi, as a Great Power of the Sea Realm, could deploy the Sea Grade·Mirror Flower Moon to reach three thousand kilometers.

But the Evil Mirror squad he brought, all from the River Realm, their Transmission Mirrors could only reach a hundred kilometers at most. Earlier, when the situation was urgent, the Evil Mirror squad cared for little else and transferred many people first.

"Open the mirror, bring everyone back, not a single one can be missed!" Lu Ran immediately commanded.

The appearance of a mysterious woman had sounded a frantic alarm for Lu Ran, every single citizen had to be taken away.

"Yes!"

"Yes!" The crowd answered one after another.

Lu Ran suddenly felt a prickling on his back.

He slightly turned his head, scanning over the massive great hall, seeing the graceful silhouette of the woman on the luxurious throne in the deepest part of the hall.

Elegantly crossing one leg over the other, resting her elbow on the armrest of the throne, her jade hand supporting her cheek.

A pair of slightly seductive eyes gazing at Lu Ran, unwavering.

When Lu Ran looked over, the woman completely unmasked the interest in her heart, extending a bright red tongue again, licking her red lips.

Lu Ran was utterly petrified!

What the hell...

What kind of monster is this exactly!
