What is Hundred Demon Island?
Its predecessor was Seven Star Island, Fourteen Star Island, Eighteen Star Island...
As the Evil Sculpture·Evil Mirror Demon in the garden ascended to the Heavenly Realm, Lu Ran summoned a hundred River Realm·Evil Mirror Demon minions.
As early as two months ago, he occupied a hundred islands in the eastern, southeastern, and southern seas far from the mainland of the Holy Spirit Mountain to collect resources falling from the sky for him.
This time, heading to Hundred Demon Island, Lu Ran gave all the collected Holy Spirit Energy to the Divine Sculpture·Dust Shadow Flower in the garden.
Lu Ran intended to have Old Master Lu be back online and rejoin the battle ranks.
Activating the Dust Shadow Flower Divine Sculpture could also bring great convenience to Lu Ran!
The Evil Mirror Magic could only reach a particular place, but the Dust Shadow Divine Technique's teleportation destination could be a place or a person!
Lu Ran only needed to leave his unique space marking on someone.
Exceedingly convenient.
And incredibly cool!
Lu Ran could hardly resist wanting to experiment with it thoroughly...
When he returned to Tianya Residence again, it was already late at night, and the three Heavenly Realm Great Powers in the hall had long since left.
Lu Ran ignored that and went to the bedroom, collapsing onto the soft bed, and while the Martial Emperor was still advancing, Lu Ran activated all the Dust Shadow Stone Sculptures and Ghost Talisman Doll Evil Sculptures in the garden.
Rock it.
I will inevitably end up being a fool.
Owing more is not a worry~
He canceled all the skills, immersed in thick fog, and his eyes gradually became unfocused...
Days and nights passed, alternating.
When Lu Ran's mind cleared, the bedroom was pitch dark, indicating it was nighttime.
"Hmm?" Lu Ran suddenly turned his head to look beside him.
This time, he didn't arrogantly ignore the other party, for the strength of the person beside him was something he could not disregard!
"Ruyi?" Lu Ran finally reacted, the room was only dark, but the swirling fog had dispersed.
"Long time no see." In the darkness, a cool voice was heard.
Lu Ran had just activated the Evil Technique·Evil Recognition to take a look at her, but she lowered her hand to cover his eyes.
"Ruyi...umm." Lu Ran's words were cut off as his lips were kissed.
Lu Ran: ???
No!
This...this this...
Are you sure you're the real Ruyi? Since when has my noble and aloof Immortal Jiang ever been so proactive?
Of course, despite the confusion, Lu Ran didn't remain stunned.
He responded decisively...
After a long while, Jiang Ruyi finally moved her face away, breathing lightly, but the hand covering his eyes still didn't move away.
Lu Ran also adjusted his breathing and softly said, "Ruyi?"
"Hmm." Immortal Jiang buried her face in his neck and softly said, "Long time no see."
This was the second time she had said such words.
Lu Ran was a bit puzzled: "Counting exactly, we've only been apart for a month, right?"
In the past, during closed-door cultivation and various battles, not seeing each other for two or three months was common.
But this is...
Lu Ran suddenly realized.
Dao Heart!
For a Human Clan cultivator to break through during the peak period, this is what is needed.
For enlightenment, the cultivator needs to repeat and consolidate deeply over and over again!
To some extent, at the moment Lu Ran just ascended to the Heavenly Realm, it was also a moment when he deeply resented the God Demons in his heart!
The room was silent.
After Lu Ran asked, she did not speak again.
The emotions of the Heavenly Realm Great Power naturally affected the surrounding environment, and Lu Ran also sensed her slight grievance.
Lu Ran couldn't help but curse himself inwardly!
He reached out to wrap her body, softly saying, "Little Ruyi, did you miss me?"
The person in his arms remained silent.
"Oh~ don't cry!" Lu Ran hurriedly said.
Jiang Ruyi: ???
Who is crying?
"Quick, wipe your tears." Lu Ran took the opportunity to pull down her hand covering his eyes.
"Ha." Jiang Ruyi was simultaneously angry and amused.
How are you so skilled at speaking nonsense and falsely accusing people?
"Oh? Are you smiling!" Lu Ran flipped over, propping himself on both sides of her head, looking down at his girlfriend who was amused to anger, "I saw it, oh!"
Jiang Ruyi rolled her eyes and turned her head to look aside.
This scene felt somewhat familiar.
The difference was, a month ago, under the strict hierarchy of the God Demon system, she was overwhelmed by someone's terrifying pressure, her body and mind gently trembling.
Now, she was no longer a weakling struggling to breathe.
She could have her emotions, no longer a small boat swaying in the storm, rising and falling with his moods.
This feeling...
It doesn't seem as good as imagined?
"Congratulations on ascending to the Heavenly Realm." Lu Ran said softly.
In the pitch-black room, Jiang Ruyi couldn't see anything, which made the young man's gentle words even clearer to her ears.
She turned her head back, looking upward: "Yes, finally."
Lu Ran smiled: "You've passed the last hurdle. From now on, you'll advance faster than me."
Jiang Ruyi remained silent.
She knew that Lu Ran was different from everyone else. Despite being the God Demons' master, he couldn't merge with any Stone Sculpture.
Because the Inheritance Contract binding Lu Ran was with the Divine·Immortal Goat.
To this day, Lord Immortal Goat hadn't mentioned anything about merging.
Lu Ran tacitly kept silent as well.
"It won't be long before I can cultivate you to the Second Level of the Heavenly Realm!" This isn't just empty talk; Lu Ran is quite confident.
Three grand words: Tong Tian Dai!
Four grand words: Records to Check!
Just that arrogant~
Lu Ran joked with a smile, "By then, you mustn't bully me."
Jiang Ruyi also laughed, just like a month ago, she slowly raised her hand, her fingertips gently brushing across Lu Ran's brow, "That's not certain."
Lu Ran: "Ah?"
Jiang Ruyi, with a gentle smile, softly said, "Afraid now?"
"Not necessarily." Lu Ran's expression was peculiar, "If you misbehave, I'll lock you up in the Sculpture Garden forever."
Jiang Ruyi: "..."
"There, it'd be like a small dark room, not knowing what's happening outside," Lu Ran's face slowly leaned in, threatening, "You'll stay lonely inside, for an eternity."
Jiang Ruyi also had a peculiar look: "Then... I'll jump around inside, making your head buzz endlessly?"
Lu Ran was bewildered.
Thought he was vicious enough, yet there was someone more skilled?
Indeed!
The closest people know exactly how to hurt you most!
"Hehe~" Jiang Ruyi chuckled lightly, but before she could say anything more, someone's lips had already descended.
Where you suffer a loss, naturally, you'll reclaim it there...
A night without further words.
Around the Tianya Residence, the immortal jasmine trees mingled with a faint fragrance.
The branches and leaves swayed in the wind, occasionally making pleasant rustling sounds.
The next morning.
Lu Ran seemed to still be asleep, but he had actually entered the spiritual world, checking his Sculpture Garden.
Now, Luoshen's stone sculpture and Martial Emperor's stone sculpture were both ready.
The divine sculpture of Dust Shadow and the evil sculpture of Ghost Talisman Doll had also reached the First Level of the Heavenly Realm, waiting to be devoured by their future masters.
Lu Ran was filled with a sense of accomplishment!
Think back to the Mountain Realm, how difficult was it to nurture a sea realm stone sculpture?
A thousand strands of pure Holy Spirit Energy were required to promote a sea realm stone sculpture by a small rank.
Now that Lu Ran had ascended to the Heavenly Realm, having finally reached the Heavenly Realm, a thousand strands of Holy Spirit Energy were nothing!
Earlier, Lord Immortal Goat had repeatedly stated the Heavenly Realm battlefield was rich in resources...
Lu Ran had truly been taught a lesson!
Filled with emotions, he agreed with the Martial Emperor and Luoshen that after building bodies for the two, he would exit the park.
Lu Ran opened his sleepy eyes, cautiously turned to look, and found that the Immortal Lord was still asleep.
Not daring to make a move, he began to ponder in secret.
About the composition of the Ran Sect team, a five-member group led by Deng Yuxiang should have enough firepower.
As long as they don't encounter large-scale troop assaults, there shouldn't be many surprises.
To avoid surprises, a prophet is indispensable!
Now comes the question, should he call on Old Man Bai Yanhui or Chang Shengen?
Though both were of the Sea Realm, they weren't required to fight, and under the team's protection, there shouldn't be any big issues.
"Hmm..." Lu Ran mused for a moment and finally decided to let Elder Bai go.
At the very least, Bai Yanhui could turn invisible!
"Hmm?" Jiang Ruyi opened her sleepy eyes, her gaze still a bit confused.
Lu Ran snapped back to reality, apologetically saying, "Did I wake you?"
"Hmm~" Jiang Ruyi clearly hadn't fully awoken, her voice soft and waxy, quite amusing.
Lu Ran couldn't help but laugh.
Jiang Ruyi obviously heard it, her cheeks slightly blushing, softly saying, "What were you thinking about, so absorbed?"
"The team..." Lu Ran briefly explained, then continued, "What do you think, how should we choose the scout for the team?"
Yan Shuangzi is the true form of the Evil Dog, with extremely strong senses, but hasn't yet learned the invisibility skill from the Greedy Wolf.
Golden Sparrow is the true form of the Nine Nether Sparrow, able to turn invisible, but those sharp bird-like eyes belong to Huang Que there...
The top choices for scouts faced the same dilemma.
When Gods and Demons split, evidently, they took what they wanted for themselves.
They left nothing for the other side...
Unlike other Gods and Demons, whose similar skills both possessed.
"Among the Ran Sect disciples, there are quite a few Sea Realm powers," Jiang Ruyi analyzed, "Should we choose someone with solid qualities to inherit the Divine Sculpture of the Witch Crow?"
Yes, the Witch Crow Sect!
Despite the Witch Crow being just a seventh-class god, its skills were complete, sharing nothing with the opposing Evil Demon·Golden Winged Bat.
The Witch Crow Sect could turn invisible and had sharp bird-like eyes.
Indeed, there was a Witch Crow disciple·Wu Huan in the Ran Sect, but he was only of the River Realm, and more importantly, his overall quality wasn't high.
Lu Ran thought for a moment and asked, "Lady of the Flame Gate, do you have any suitable candidates?"
Jiang Ruyi replied without hesitation, "Shangguan Hongfu from Cloud Sea Cliff, Wei Yun from the Pear Garden Sect, the gourmet master from the Forbidden City, Zhu Haining from Jingxian Mountain, Tianya Mingyue Twin Island Masters from the Thousand Boat Alliance...
They are all Sea Realm powers, among them are warriors selected one in ten thousand, with exceptionally high overall quality."
Each name instantly dragged Lu Ran back to the days of battle in the Mountain Realm.
Jiang Ruyi clearly knew the subordinates like the back of her hand.
Lu Ran was one who conquered lands, expanding territory, while Jiang Ruyi behind him was the one who protected and managed the sect for him.
"If you could relax the conditions a bit..."
Jiang Ruyi pondered for a moment and continued, "Yue Yi under Wang Longxiang of Longxiang Valley, Hou Yun under He Qifeng of the Forbidden City, these two have excellent overall quality.
Hou Yun is even one of Da Xia's geniuses, only their talents were insufficient, and they could not advance to the Sea Realm."
Lu Ran nodded slightly, recalling the advice of Yu Changsheng.
Keep something up your sleeve!
Naturally trustworthy and loyal to the Ran Sect, these are the preferred choices.
So,
Who should receive this heaven-defying opportunity to become a god?
