Summit of the Old Gods

Chapter 938: Valkyrie


This is a breathtaking scene.

The towering Valkyrie, her long hair fluttering with red silk, exudes a majestic aura.

The giant blade connecting heaven and earth glows with a crimson light, like a blazing flame shot from a high divine altar, burning toward the battlefield about to be trampled and conquered by the Valkyrie.

The highlight of the entire painting, however, is not a single god or blade.

It is the small human standing beneath the tip of the blade.

His soul trembles.

Yet his body stands tall.

He looks directly into the eyes of the divine being without a hint of evasion.

Nu Ying, expressionless, looks down at the unyielding creature beneath her feet, then suddenly reaches out her hand to the side.

"Whoosh~"

Divine blood splatters.

Although Nu Ying is a mere illusory remnant, she uses divine power to summon giant, scorching drops of blood.

Silence pervades the world.

In this quiet, it seems an agreement is reached between the human and the god.

"Tap~"

The first drop of divine blood hits the ground, and both sides move instantly.

Lu Ran swiftly moves to the side, raising one hand towards Nu Ying.

North Wind Divine Skill · North Wind Roar!

Lord God, you are too arrogant; taste the intimidation from the Human Clan... huh?

Lu Ran's expression changes!

There should have been a fierce gale, a rapidly spinning tornado, enveloping the remnant of Nu Ying.

But Lu Ran failed to cast the spell.

Not only that!

He is astonished to find that the Water Flow Armor covering him also shattered and dissipated the moment the divine blood touched the ground.

The fundamental cause of all this is the vast divine power within Lu Ran falling into silence.

Is this... the Divine Weapon Domain?

When did it activate?

It's truly astonishing how such a divine weapon can deploy its domain so silently!

This so-called spell prohibition fundamentally means the confinement of divine power.

The orderly flow of divine power within Lu Ran has come to a halt and cannot be mobilized.

"Boom!"

The Chi Ji Blade strikes heavily, causing the earth to tremble.

The thick sea of fog rises like a tide, surging to the sides.

Without the ability to cast spells, Lu Ran loses the Simurgh Eyes and can no longer see through the fog.

He cannot move at high speed, nor can he blink away to escape!

In the fog-filled world, Lu Ran is utterly blind, like a lamb to the slaughter.

"Whoosh~" Lu Ran's foot launches him sideways once more.

In an instant, the Chi Ji Blade slashes down again, exactly where the small human stood before.

The god's voice comes from the sky: "Human Clan, do you know that the First-class and Second-class Gods you revere have all begged humbly under my blade?"

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

With Nu Ying's voice, the Chi Ji Blade strikes three more times in succession.

Lu Ran scrambles to dodge, not daring to let the Smoke and Mist Silk carry him into the sky.

Since possessing countless skills, whether soaring to the heavens or diving into the sea, he always has a foothold.

But now it is different; he has been reverted to his original form!

Even the Smoke and Mist Silk can no longer exhibit any magical artifact functionality; it is merely a conscious, flying ribbon. Lu Ran does not believe the Smoke and Mist Silk is faster than Nu Ying, so he dares not fly skyward.

Another blade descends!

Nu Ying's sonorous voice fills the world: "Without divine techniques, the gods you revere seem to have lost their spirit."

The gigantic crimson blade repeatedly cleaves through the thick sea of mist.

Stirring up tidal waves of mist.

The ant struggling in the fog truly is on the brink of death, but at some point, he closes his eyes.

Even without Evil Sense, Lu Ran still possesses his own perception, honed in countless life-and-death battles, a warrior's instinct.

Even without sight, he still has ears for sound positioning.

No Evil Sensitivity, no Immortal Hoof, no Instant Teleportation...

No matter!

"They panic, they fear, they reveal their true form, peeling back their strong stone exterior, exposing a timid heart..." Nu Ying speaks gradually, though her hand raises and lowers swiftly.

She continuously compresses the survival space of the ant beneath her.

One slash after another, faster and faster.

But to her surprise, the speed of the human under her blade also increases, movements growing steadier.

"Whoosh!!"

Suddenly, Nu Ying's descending red blade doesn't rise but instead sweeps horizontally.

In proportion, the Chi Ji Blade belongs to the slender type, akin to the Tang Cross Blade of human society.

But in specific measurements, the Chi Ji Blade is nearly 200 meters long, with a blade width of more than ten meters!

Making it seem as if a row of three or four-story buildings in the dense fog is sweeping towards Lu Ran.

Lu Ran's heart skips a beat, and he launches upwards with a powerful surge.

The strength of the Heavenly Realm body grants him unparalleled strength and jumping ability, coupled with the frantic pull of the Smoke and Mist Silk, and in a flash, the blade's back skims his shoe soles.

"Whoosh!"

The terrifying gale nearly topples him.

The Smoke and Mist Silk strives to stabilize its master, but in the next instant, the sweeping "buildings" come crashing back.

Lu Ran listens intently, suddenly wielding his blade to block in front.

The Smoke and Mist Silk expands first, its soft flying ribbon firmly bracing against the Chi Ji Blade, wrapping around Lu Ran's waist and abdomen, pulling its master back.

"Whoosh!!"

Nu Ying vigorously swings, pressing the blade against the Smoke and Mist Silk, continuing towards Lu Ran.

The Dawn Blade and Eight Desolate Blade in Lu Ran's hands tap simultaneously on the Chi Ji Blade.

A tremendous force surges, sending Lu Ran flying diagonally towards the sea of fog below.

Nu Ying's gaze shifts, observing the human youth rapidly flying backward, noting his closed eyes.

Evidently, they weren't shut out of fear.

Amid the youth's brows, she saw not a trace of terror.

It was more like the Human Clan, swallowed by the Misty Sea after the battle began, kept his eyes closed, demonstrating the keen sense of smell he had honed amidst the flames of war.

Nu Ying's eyes narrowed.

Because Lu Ran, who was flying backward, suddenly opened his eyes.

The gaze of man and god intertwined, the icy eyes from the Human Clan met the scorching sight of the god.

For a moment, Nu Ying seemed to see a true warrior.

He was without his life-reliant Divine Technique, and the world-destroying Divine Weapons and Magic Artifacts had lost all their skills, leaving only the most basic survival ability.

All the glamorous exterior of the Human Clan youth was stripped away by the Valkyrie.

What was exposed,

was an indomitable spirit.

"Huff!"

Lu Ran landed heavily, his legs bent, upper body leaning forward, sliding backward continuously.

Alone, he transformed into a blade, slicing through layers of the Misty Sea.

Suddenly, as Lu Ran was still sliding backward, his body trembled, and being far enough from the previous battlefield, the Divine Power within him began to flow again.

In an instant, Lu Ran opened a pair of Simurgh Eyes, and through the roiling fog, he saw the approaching Nu Ying.

His gaze was locked on the advancing god, and he swiftly raised his hand.

Almost at the same time, the Divine Power within Lu Ran was sealed again.

However, the gale had already been unleashed!

"Huff!!"

A gale arose swiftly!

The forward-moving figure of Nu Ying halted abruptly, her pupils slightly contracted.

Behind her at an angle, a terrifying tornado rose out of nowhere, stirring the Misty Sea into a Fog Dragon Roll connecting heaven and earth.

Nu Ying's long hair drifted horizontally, the red long silk billowing wildly.

She did not believe that the Human Clan youth had made a mistake.

The recent exchanges had already demonstrated that he was a competent warrior.

Therefore, the tornado was deliberately initiated behind him at an angle.

Nu Ying hovered in place, allowing the storm behind her to rampage, saying from afar, "I was not holding back earlier."

Her words were straightforward and dignified.

Indeed, she was scrutinizing the Human Clan youth earlier, which is why there was a momentary pause.

And that slight delay gave him the opportunity he needed.

In the Misty Sea, the Smoke and Mist Silk, along with the Human Clan youth, slowly floated upward.

He gazed at Nu Ying's shadow beside the storm, saying arrogantly, "Then you should think I was holding back."

"Alright." Nu Ying suddenly laughed, amused to the point of laughter, "What a North Wind believer."

Lu Ran, with a pained expression, pointed his blade at the god, "If we're going to fight, let's fight for real. Don't curse at me!"

Nu Ying: ?

Lu Ran was genuinely insulted, muttering, "You're the North Wind believer, your whole family is!"

For a moment, Nu Ying's expression was quite priceless.

She never expected that a presence at his level of the Human Clan, on a battlefield of this caliber, would retort childishly like a child.

Nu Ying was silent for a moment, her tone returned to its usual calmness, her majesty undiminished, "Where did your North Wind Divine Skill come from?"

Lu Ran did not respond, instead, he said, "Next time, you'll be ripped to pieces."

Without a response, Nu Ying nodded gently to herself, "Being able to slay gods and demons, naturally, must have some extraordinary aspects."

As the words fell, a surge of energy rolled in her hand, and a body of flesh descended from the sky, as a massive shadow madly surged into the flesh.

During this process, the crimson giant blade in the shadow's hand transformed into a Pure Energy Body.

"Thud!"

The tall and graceful Nu Ying, holding a slender red blade, stood firmly on the ground, sending a wave of mist.

Heavenly Realm Third Level body, God Realm soul.

Lu Ran couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

Was Nu Ying wary of the storm, so she created a god minion?

Impossible.

The God and Demon Residue indeed could not survive in the storm, but Nu Ying was different from other gods and demons, she had absolutely powerful means to forbid Lu Ran from casting spells.

If Nu Ying maintained her godly shadow form, all the skills she exhibited would be of Divine Grade.

Even the slightest touch on Lu Ran would cause him to die miserably on the spot.

And since the battle began, Nu Ying hasn't even used the Divine Technique. Whether she chooses not to use it or her Divine Power is also sealed by her own Divine Weapon is another matter.

Overall, if Nu Ying maintained her shadow form, her win rate would definitely skyrocket.

"What, Lord God intends to fight me fairly?"

This time, it was Lu Ran who was flying in the sky, looking down at Nu Ying.

Nu Ying's white, slender fingers slowly brushed over the slender red blade, "You can't cast, I am illusory and invincible, how can we talk about fighting."

"Really?" Lu Ran tilted his head slightly, looking towards Nu Ying's back at an angle.

The tornado had only just stopped there, the mist was stirred into chaos.

Nu Ying naturally knew what Lu Ran was looking at and what he was implying.

She slightly squinted her eyes, her gaze was sharp, her lips gently curled, looking at Lu Ran with a faint smile.

If possible, Lu Ran really wanted to capture this moment.

Who knows if Lady Nu Ying has ever shown such an expression to others since her creation.

However, Lu Ran didn't have a phone.

Moreover, he was busy countering, smiling gently.

Unfortunately, the Blood Crystal Mask was in the way, this classic expression couldn't be sent to the Valkyrie in front of him.

Man and god met eyes once more.

A surge of astounding battle intent churned in both chests, like invisible ocean waves, crashing towards each other.

"Remember, Human Clan! Your mercy, I will repay threefold."

Nu Ying spoke slowly, pointing her blade at Lu Ran, "This is the first time."

Lord God lowered herself from a godly shadow to a Heavenly Realm·Third Level flesh body.

She voluntarily lowered her realm, skill grade, physical strength, and so on to a level similar to Lu Ran's.

It truly counted as one.

"The next two times, this battle won't be enough..." Lu Ran twirled the blade in his hands, his body tense, suddenly flickered away, "Put it on my tab!"

The sudden Instant Teleportation did not frighten Nu Ying.

Instead, her eyes suddenly brightened, she swiftly turned around and raised her blade to block.

"Ding!!"
