On the fifteenth day of the winter month, within the Sculpture Garden.
Lu Ran floated before the Faceless Stone Sovereign and pressed the final wisp of the Jade Sovereign divine soul's remnant onto her face.
His palm then settled on her brow as he carefully sensed something.
"Not enough. Still just a little short," Lu Ran murmured, slowly opening his eyes.
Over the past ten days or so, he had torn all five captured Jade Sovereign divine souls into remnant fragments and affixed them strand by strand onto the Faceless Stone Sovereign.
Carefully forging Ran Sect's hope.
Judging by appearances alone, the Faceless Stone Sovereign had already taken shape.
Other than being a dim stone construct, she was identical to the Faceless Jade Sovereign in every other respect!
But in the end, she was still lacking by the slightest bit.
Creating a stone statue really was difficult!
This time, Lu Ran had brought back five Jade Sovereign divine souls. Together with the one he had captured at Nuying God Mountain months ago, he had accumulated six divine souls' worth of raw materials.
One had to know, these were divine souls! Even such a considerable stockpile of resources still had not been enough to complete the Faceless Stone Sovereign.
Mm... no matter!
Since it was just a little short, then they would head to the borderlands and kill some Jade Sovereign Lackeys.
Besides, the Zhanzun Knife had been holding itself back these past few days.
As for the Divine Weapon Domain, neither weapon nor master could really be blamed.
Power was, of course, the capital for offending the superior.
And the Zhanzun Knife's thirst for power had manifested in boosting its master's attributes across the board. There was nothing wrong with that.
If Lu Ran were not the Gods and Devils
