Chapter 574 The Vast Ocean
The God and Demon Sculpture Park looks like a chess board.

There is a wide river running through the east and west, like the boundary between Chu and Han.

To the north and south of the river, the camp of gods and the camp of demons stood proudly facing each other.

There should be no such thing as direction in the spiritual world, but this is Lu Ran's territory, so he directly defined the pseudo-god stone statue as facing north and south, and naturally divided it into east and west.

At this time, Lu Ran was in the north of the river, in the camp of gods.

In front of him stood an extremely huge statue of a god, Dong Ting!

This scale.
"Good boy~" Lu Ran raised his head as high as he could, his face full of surprise.

Because the fog in the garden was too thick, he could only see the calf of the false god Dong Ting.

A glimpse of the whole picture!
Just by looking at this part of the calf, Lu Ran could guess how magnificent this stone sculpture was.

So. Heavenly realm?

"Lu Xiao, Lu Xiao, it's worth it that you have ruled a region for more than ten years. You are really able to gain the energy of the Holy Spirit!" Lu Ran was full of emotion.

Recalling the battle at Misty Rain Lake, Lu Ran swallowed the souls of many Dong Ting disciples.

Just the powerful people in the sea realm can make a list:

Ling Feng, Huxu, Hulian, Xueying, Xueyue, Tiehua and other Sea Realm Hall Masters, Lv Xiao Sect Master, Mrs. Lv Da, Mrs. Lv San
There are also many members of Jiangjing Hall.

There are two other Jiangjing Dongting disciples whose identities are very special.

Those two men were the bodyguards of Luo Tiantu from Tiantu Mountain. In the past six months, every time Luo Tiantu went out to collect the Holy Spirit Energy, he would let the two bodyguards enjoy it first.

Presumably, the two of them also carry a lot of holy spirit in their souls.

"Yeah." Lu Ran nodded secretly.

Come to think of it, Luo Tiantu, Madam Kong and a group of Yu Fu disciples were able to make Lu Ran's pseudo-god Yu Fu stone sculpture reach the third stage of the Sea Realm.

And it is approaching the fourth stage of sea realm!
Jingting Mountain is so huge, how could it be possible that the Holy Spirit Energy collected by Master Lu and his wives and subordinates is small?

Lu Ran even felt that his Dong Ting stone sculpture should not remain at the initial stage of the Heavenly Realm.

and many more!

After the heavenly realm, are there still one, two, and three stages?

Lu Ran frowned, connecting with the spirit of the Dong Ting stone statue.

Always feel something is different?

Over such a long time, all the stone sculptures cultivated by Lu Ran, whether they were in the Mist Realm, Stream Realm, River Realm, River Realm, or Sea Realm, were divided into five small levels within each major realm.

Lu Ran was unable to grasp the specific values ​​precisely.

He didn't know how much Holy Spirit Energy was needed to upgrade within a small level.

But in the general direction, Lu Ran could roughly sense and confirm that there were five small levels in total.

It's like five steps!
Every time you climb a step, you will experience a small transformation, until you reach the last step, which will bring you a qualitative leap and enable you to enter the next great realm.

But this stone statue of heaven in front of me doesn’t seem to have five steps?

In the heavenly realm, there are only three transformation nodes!

If I reach the top of the heavenly realm and go one step further,
Can you be on par with the gods?

At least I can get infinitely close to the gods and demons, right? !
It was hard for Lu Ran not to think so!
After all, there have always been five transformation nodes in the Sea Realm and below, but when it comes to the Heaven Realm, it suddenly becomes three.

There must be a reason for this sudden change.

I guess there must be some important information in it!
"Master Xianyang"

Lu Ran looked around, but there was only thick fog and no trace of his old friend.

He couldn't hide the disappointment in his eyes, and murmured: "It would be better if you were here."

After saying this, Lu Ran really wanted to hear the domineering Mr. Yang’s sneer.

Even if it's just a joke.

However... no.

Nothing at all.

The hands of the gods cannot reach into the Holy Spirit Mountain Realm, not even the mysterious Immortal Sheep.

"Alright." Lu Ran murmured in a low voice.

I was full of doubts, but I could only keep them in my heart.

I also don’t know whether the growth path of Shisu can match the advancement path of the human race.

Well, you can go ask the leader of Qianzhou Alliance.

Yun Qianzhou has already reached the heavenly realm, so he should have a certain understanding of his current realm. Maybe he can even glimpse some of the mysteries within it?

Lu Ran thought secretly and left the God and Demon Sculpture Park.

When his attention is no longer focused on the spiritual world, everything around him naturally comes into his perception.

Lu Ran heard the sound of soft breathing.

Long and rhythmic.

Right beside my ears.

Lu Ran quietly opened his eyes and turned his head slightly, and a delicate and cold face came into view.

Lu Ran was shocked by how beautiful it was!
He also realized that there was another hand resting in his palm, slender and tender.

She squeezed it in her palm and it felt very good.

"Hmm?" Jiang Ruyi opened her eyes.

Those cold eyes were icy cold, and the room felt like an icy cave.

In a twinkle, the ice and snow melted.

When she saw the person in front of her clearly, she no longer had any hostility towards the pressure from the powerful Sea Realm, and instead endured it silently.

Her beautiful eyes softened, and her voice was gentle: "Did I wake you up?"

Fairy Jiang was still willful for once and did not leave. Instead, she stayed carefully beside him, lying quietly on her side.

But she smelled that familiar scent and fell asleep unknowingly.

"No, I. You advanced?"

"Yes, you have reached the peak of Jiang realm." Jiang Ruyi smiled, leaned forward slightly, and rested her forehead on his arm.

She closed her eyes again and sniffed his scent gently.

Very reassuring.

"How long have I been lying there?" Lu Ran was a little confused. "What day is it today?"

"Not long, you are too tired, sleep a little longer." Jiang Ruyi advised quietly. Memories gradually emerged.

Lu Ran vaguely remembered that she had once borrowed Little Chifeng from him.

At that time, he was in a daze, his mind was not very smart, and he seemed to have said some lewd words.

You said to let Xiao Chifeng go find her mother?

"Uh." Lu Ran rubbed his head.

One careless move exposed the true thoughts~
"Don't want to sleep anymore?"

Lu Ran reached out and hugged her, apologetically saying: "You advanced this time, I..."

Jiang Ruyi interrupted softly: "You have worked hard for so long and built this foundation. You have elite soldiers and generals under you. You don't have to do everything yourself."

"Uh." Lu Ran was stuck again.

It's embarrassing to be praised.

Hehe ~
[Does activating the stone sculpture have a big impact on you?] Jiang Ruyi changed it to voice transmission.

[Not bad, by the way, Dong Ting Shensu has been promoted to the Heaven Realm! ] Lu Ran responded.

[Oh?] Jiang Ruyi raised her eyes slightly and looked at Lu Ran's profile.

[There is a slight change in Shisu's growth path.] Lu Ran told Jiang Ruyi about his discovery.

Jiang Ruyi pondered: [If there are only three nodes, Dongting Shenzhu only needs to cross two nodes and reach the third stage of the Heavenly Realm, which is equivalent to reaching the peak of the Heavenly Realm? ]

[Yes! Reach the top of the heavenly realm, then take another step forward and cross the last node.]

【God?】 Fairy Jiang’s eyes were bright.

[I don't know.] Lu Ran looked at this charming face and couldn't help but kiss her soft lips. [It's a beautiful vision.]

"Hmm" Jiang Ruyi closed her eyes subconsciously.

Lu Ran sent another voice transmission: [When does Fairy Jiang plan to advance to the Sea Realm? The Heaven Realm is waiting for us. ]

Jiang Ruyi: “.”

You speak as if you have reached the pinnacle of the sea realm.

Aren’t you just one section?

There is still a long way to go.
Lu Ran showed mercy and temporarily let Fairy Jiang go. He said seriously, "After you reach the sea realm, we will set out again and travel all over this Holy Spirit Mountain."

"Travel all over?" Jiang Ruyi buried her head in Lu Ran's arms, hiding her pretty red face, and her voice was muffled.

"Yes!" Lu Ran's response was crisp and clear.

In the Holy Spirit Mountain, the powerful people in the Sea Realm are the kings who dominate the life and death of others.

As for Lu Ran, who is at the sea level, the situation is even more special!

His true combat power is absolutely beyond the reach of ordinary sea realm masters!
Lu Ran no longer has to be as timid as before, he has enough strength to get through this dirty mountain.

Whether it is to rectify the atmosphere or to rescue the suffering slaves.

Recruit heroes from all over the world, recruit believers from all directions, and seize magical weapons
In short, the upcoming trip to the Holy Spirit Mountain will be a stage of rapid rise for Lu Ran and his Ran Sect!
While thinking about it, Lu Ran told Jiang Ruyi about his ambitions.

"You advised me before to keep my mind and be cautious." Lu Ran changed the subject and said with a smile, "So you have to travel with me and remind me not to be too reckless."

"Yeah." Jiang Ruyi still buried her head in Lu Ran's arms, her mind churning.

Lu Ran rubbed his fiancée's long black hair and gently twisted it around his fingertips: "You know, Mr. Conglong may not be able to persuade me.

The guardians like Nightmare Shadow are even more obedient than the others, and they do whatever I say."

Jiang Ruyi was both angry and amused. She raised her head and glared at Lu Ran.

Lu Ran smiled and blinked: "Also, I plan to return to Wanren Mountain and use the unique terrain there to take a glimpse of the heaven."

Jiang Ruyi's expression changed slightly and his brows furrowed slightly.

"Don't worry! I won't put myself in danger. I plan to use the evil magic of the evil mirror, the Mirror of Destiny."

After listening to Lu Ran's explanation, Fairy Jiang's brows gradually relaxed.

Of course, you can explore the situation in heaven as long as your life is safe.

Just hope,

It's closer to the human world.

Not another purgatory, not another dirtier mountain.

Jiang Ruyi has always been pessimistic about the world above the sea of ​​clouds.

When she recognized the true face of gods and demons, she really didn't think that they would let go of any human who might change the situation in the world.

As for those who have come to the Holy Spirit Mountain and returned to the human world
Jiang Ruyi didn't mind speculating on the purpose and meaning of their existence with the greatest malice.

Should those extreme cases really be called lucky ones?
What did they have to pay to return to Daxia safely? Have these people become running dogs of gods and demons and traitors?

Or maybe, they have been stripped of everything by the gods and demons and turned into puppets.
Who knows.

Jiang Ruyi gently grasped Lu Ran's sleeve.

The road ahead is long and dangerous.

What will be waiting for us at the end?

"So, you have to advance to the Sea Realm quickly so that we can enter the next stage, okay?" Lu Ran was imagining the future when he suddenly sensed waves of energy surging.

He lowered his eyes in astonishment and looked at the beauty in his arms.

But Jiang Ruyi was also looking back at him, with a pair of bright eyes, gentle and firm.

"call!!"

A violent energy wave rippled out from Jiang Ruyi's body.

Lu Ran was surprised and happy, but he didn't dare to move rashly. Even the fingertips that were entangled in her hair were frozen in place.

Yes,

Fairy Jiang doesn't need to go into a retreat room to meditate.

The concept of Tao Heart is a concrete figure for her personally.

Always by her side.

Right before her eyes.
