Chapter 412: Ascension?
Chapter 412: Ascension?
"Choose an alias for yourself, sir," Lu Ran said with a cheerful smile.
Poor Xian'er, she's going to be the third guardian!
Lu Ran looked at Yu Changsheng's handsome face, and the more he looked, the happier he felt.
This is a Sea Realm, Fourth Level Dragon Carp Great Physician!
Tsk tsk~
In the future, it will be difficult for me to even die in this Holy Spirit Mountain Realm!
Yu Changsheng asked in confusion, "An alias?"
Lu Ran pointed to the woman in the distance, "When acting within this realm, we don't want to use our real names, so we chose an alias.
My sister's real name is Deng Yuxiang, and she is now the first guardian of the Flame Sect, Nightmare."
Yu Changsheng didn't refuse and casually said, "Just call me Changsheng."
Lu Ran hesitated for a moment, "This alias, it feels like your name?"
Yu Changsheng, who was a year older than Lu Ran, directly addressed him as "Changsheng," which felt a bit impolite.
"Hmm," Yu Changsheng thought for a moment and went along with it, "Then call me Conglong."
"Conglong?" Lu Ran blinked.
Deng Yuxiang suddenly spoke, her eyes showing a hint of appreciation, "Mr. Yu, you have great ambition."
She clearly understood the meaning of this alias.
And she was quite satisfied!
Yu Changsheng looked at the bright and beautiful yet imposing woman, smiled and nodded, "Likewise."
Lu Ran felt a bit embarrassed and said, "No! I do want to accomplish something, but I never thought of ascending the throne!"
Yu Changsheng smiled but didn't speak.
Deng Yuxiang still leaned against the tree, gazing at the clouds covering the sky, a slight smile on her lips, "It's not up to you."
Lu Ran: "."
Yu Changsheng said, "When you're ready to leave, just call me."
He pretended to dive down, and Lu Ran hurriedly said, "Oh, Mr. Yu, I want to ask you about someone."
"Who?"
"Have you heard of Qin Yanzhi? He's a Dust Shadow believer, 24 years old, about 1.8 meters tall."
"I've never heard of him," Yu Changsheng shook his head and added, "I've also never heard of the believers' base in this realm. Dust Shadow believers are probably very rare here."
"Oh," Lu Ran sighed inwardly.
Not even a headquarters?
It seems that finding Miss Li Rouyin's childhood friend will be difficult.
Yu Changsheng: "Do you have a history with him?"
Lu Ran shook his head, "It's a friend's request. I just want to see if he's still alive."
Yu Changsheng nodded and didn't say anything else.
Lu Ran continued, "Mr. Yu, have you heard of Cheng Xin? He's a Celestial Sheep believer, and he came to this realm over thirty years ago.
If he's still alive, he's almost sixty years old now, about 1.7 meters tall."
"Over thirty years?" Yu Changsheng was a bit surprised.
Lu Ran observed Yu Changsheng's reaction and knew that he was going to return empty-handed again.
Yu Changsheng also noticed Lu Ran's disappointment and comforted him, "The Holy Spirit Mountain Realm is vast and boundless. Just because I haven't heard of them doesn't mean they're in trouble."
"Hmm hmm," Lu Ran nodded.
Yu Changsheng hesitated for a moment but still said, "If this senior entered the mountain over thirty years ago..."
Lu Ran: "What?"
Yu Changsheng: "As long as he's still alive, he must be exceptionally powerful! Perhaps, he's up there."
Lu Ran's expression was puzzled, "Up there?"
Yu Changsheng held the folding fan and pointed upwards.
Lu Ran's expression was startled, "Isn't the sky of the Holy Spirit Mountain Realm a forbidden zone? Those who try to fly upwards might be shattered by mysterious energy?"
Yu Changsheng nodded slightly, "You also said it's 'possible' to be shattered. There's never a shortage of people who are eager to try.
Some people don't believe in superstitions and insist on challenging them.
Some people miss the human world and want to go home.
Perhaps some people are simply tired and have had enough of this hopeless life, seeking a quick and painless release."
Lu Ran opened his mouth slightly and turned to look at Deng Yuxiang, their eyes meeting.
Yu Changsheng smiled, a bit bitterly, "Believe me, when you've been in this realm for ten or twenty years and have been tormented beyond recognition, you might also become numb, lose hope, and fly upwards without any regard for the consequences."
Lu Ran asked, "Mr. Yu, have you ever flown upwards?"
Yu Changsheng slowly shook his head, "No."
He looked at Lu Ran, and in his heart, he added two more sentences:
Soon.
If I hadn't met you.
Deng Yuxiang gazed at the sky, her eyes showing a hint of confusion, "Up there, is that the way home?"
Yu Changsheng advised, "Since we have clear goals and can freely grow in this realm, it's best to focus on the present.
Let's discuss the matter of ascension later."
Lu Ran was taken aback, "Ascension?"
Yu Changsheng smiled, "There's no such concept, it was just a joke.
After all, most people who fly upwards end up in pieces, and very few disappear without a trace."
Disappear without a trace?!
Lu Ran looked up at the sky, but unfortunately, it was covered by clouds.
So, those who successfully "ascend" disappear without a trace?
Where do they go?
To the human world?
Or, is there another Holy Spirit Mountain above?
Yu Changsheng watched as the two silently gazed upwards, and he slowly sank towards the bottom of the lake.
After an unknown amount of time, Lu Ran finally snapped out of his thoughts.
Mr. Yu is right!
It's better to focus on improving myself in this realm!
I've only been here for half a month, and I already want to go home?
Is there Holy Spirit Qi at home?
Lu Ran cupped his hands and scooped up the cold lake water, washing his face vigorously. Then he looked at Deng Yuxiang and said, "Sister, do you want to take a bath?
Lu Ran: ". . ."
Lu Ran chuckled, "Come on, Mr. Yu has already reached the fourth level of the Sea Realm, and he's still not daring to fly towards the heavens! We, as small fry in the River Realm, should really not act rashly."
Deng Yuxiang's eyebrows rose, "Did I say I wanted to go home?"
Lu Ran shook his head vigorously, "No, no, you're a steel-hearted woman! You're as hard as stone."
Deng Yuxiang clicked her tongue lightly and strode forward with her long legs, heading straight for Lu Ran.
Seeing the situation turning sour, Lu Ran quickly dove towards the bottom of the lake.
Speaking of which, he had activated so many evil and divine sculptures, but he didn't have any water-based techniques.
After all, Lu Ran had always fought in inland areas.
So, should he go to the sea to look for the Ink Carp Clan?
On the one hand, it would be for Yu Changsheng's preparation, and on the other hand, it would be a precaution.
Just in case, if there's a sea battle one day, he would have the strength to fight.
Lu Ran nodded secretly, this matter could be put on the agenda!
First, go to Night Fiend Lake, then to Heaven Follower Mountain.
If all goes well, the three members of the Flame Sect can head east to see the ocean!
With one goal after another, this little life is really worth looking forward to!
As he thought, Lu Ran felt suffocated and hurried upstream.
"Pffft!" Water splashed everywhere.
Lu Ran wiped his face and happened to see a pair of pitch-black leather boots in front of him.
Deng Yuxiang stood on a layer of wind and waves, stepping on the surface of the lake, looking down at someone:
"I thought you'd hide for a long time, until I calmed down."
Lu Ran quickly admitted his mistake, "Wrong, wrong, Mr. Yu is still below, and he just joined our Flame Sect. Give the Sect Leader some face."
Deng Yuxiang watched Lu Ran pretending to be well-behaved and couldn't help but hum.
But her lips curled up slightly.
Would he miss home?
Maybe a little.
Mom and Dad, Rain Alley City, the familiar bed.
But with him here, the days weren't too hard to bear.
Three days later, in the Snow Forest.
A floor-to-ceiling mirror quietly opened, and the trio from the Flame Sect emerged.
The cold wind howled like ghosts and wolves.
Lu Ran gazed at the white sky and suddenly narrowed his eyes.
He focused his gaze, then reached out to his side and summoned an ancient bronze mirror.
"Swish~"
The ancient bronze mirror transformed into a floor-to-ceiling mirror, and another floor-to-ceiling mirror appeared in the sky.
A strand of Holy Spirit Qi fell into it.
Lu Ran immediately opened his horizontal pupils and sucked in deeply.
Yu Changsheng stood with his hands behind his back, quietly observing Lu Ran's work, while Deng Yuxiang kept watch around them, searching for any possible Night Fiend Clan members.
"Buzz~"
Lu Ran's mind trembled, and in the Divine Demon Sculpture Garden, the Lietyen God Sculpture buzzed.
Finally!
His face lit up, as the Lietyen God Sculpture, which had reached the fifth stage of the Stream Realm, was finally about to advance to the River Realm.
The Transcendent Slaughter Technique·Blazing Heaven Tyrant could now be equipped by Lu Ran!
Speaking of which, when the Lietyen believers used this technique, once activated, they couldn't stop.
The blazing body would consume the last bit of divine energy and strength of the caster.
"Hmm." Lu Ran pursed his lips, his thoughts swirling.
It was undeniable that Lietyen believers needed to follow the rules of divine techniques.
But did he need to as well?
He wasn't a believer, but the master of Lietyen!
After the battle, he could directly command or replace the Lietyen God Sculpture to turn off the divine technique, right?
"Hiss!"
"Hiss!!!" A sudden hiss mixed with the cold wind, sounding particularly eerie.
"Five or six Night Fiends!" Deng Yuxiang listened intently.
"I'll handle it." Yu Changsheng raised his hand.
This was his first battle since joining the Flame Sect, and he wanted to show off his skills and help his teammates get familiar and adapt quickly.
"Pop~"
One by one, pale golden little dragon carps appeared out of thin air, surrounding the handsome man's slender white palm, swimming lightly.
"Can the Sect Leader use Mirror Flower Moon to open another mirror in front of the Night Fiends?" Yu Changsheng suggested.
Huh?
Do you want to use a combo with me?
"Sure!" Lu Ran nodded immediately, reaching out to Yu Changsheng.
"Here they come." Deng Yuxiang suddenly opened her eyes and looked up, and a Night Fiend squad was rushing towards them in mid-air.
A floor-to-ceiling mirror quickly appeared in front of Yu Changsheng, while another floor-to-ceiling mirror appeared in mid-air, standing about ten meters in front of the Night Fiend squad.
"Whoosh~ Whoosh~ Whoosh!"
The leading Night Fiend reacted swiftly, throwing a string of Night Fiend blades directly at the floor-to-ceiling mirror.
Yu Changsheng reached out, and his slender palm appeared through the mirror in mid-air.
"Huff!"
Countless pale golden little dragon carps rushed forward.
Sea-grade Dragon Carp Break!
This wasn't just a few fish, but a shocking, dense swarm of fish!
The terrifying swarm of fish instantly engulfed the rushing Night Fiend squad.
The Snow Forest below wasn't spared either, as it was struck by the overwhelming, chaotic fish.
"Wow!"
Lu Ran was secretly impressed.
Dragon Carp Divine Technique·Dragon Carp Break was the most basic divine technique of the Dragon Carp Sect.
When believers were in the Mist Realm, they could only throw out a small fish.
But in the hands of the Sea Realm Powerhouse, Yu Changsheng, this was incredible!
Lu Ran felt like he wasn't in a snowy landscape but had entered the deep sea.
So many fish~
So many, many fish.
No wonder he was the second guardian of the Flame Sect!
Hehe~
