Waiting.
A long wait.
Lu Ran stood in the sky two kilometers north of the Divine Mountain, ready to activate the Silent Domain at any moment. Evil Shadow Guardian, Elder Lu Yuan, and the others waited in the high sky southeast of the mountain, poised to strike.
Jade Talisman had already returned to the Divine Mountain twice to recuperate, yet Blood Skull was still slaughtering away. He was simply a battle-crazed devil!
Sometimes, Lu Ran wondered whether the resources Blood Skull had plundered were enough to replenish the energy he consumed in battle.
After an unknown length of time, Yan Shuangzi's eyes narrowed!
Far away on the Eastern Frontline, the enormous Blood Skull Evil Sculpture abruptly vanished, leaving behind a massive blood-colored afterimage where it had stood.
Blood Skull had returned to the mountain!
He appeared atop the mountain in a crouch, a pair of blood blades plunged into the Divine Mountain. Beneath his messy bangs, his eyes were vicious as he looked down at the still-chaotic frontline battlefield.
[All units, attention!]
The words imprinted in her mind made Yan Shuangzi's body tense.
She gripped Tu Peak and He Qifeng by the necks in her left and right hands respectively. These two were among the best close-combat fighters in the Ran Sect.
The Lu Yuan stone idol beside her also focused intently, holding a Chifengwen Gourd in his left hand and a tiny Little Money Pouch in his right.
[Thirty-two, move!]
Lu Ran directly activated the Silent Domain, and Yan Shuangzi fixed her gaze on Blood Skull before flashing toward him.
A phantom of a god or devil immediately drifted out of the Lu Yuan stone idol—Qin Yanzhi!
At the same time, the two artifacts in Lu Yuan's hands spewed out stone idols and evil sculptures in one great rush.
