Douluo: Rainbow Cat, Blue Cat, Seven Swords and Dragon Rider

Chapter 22 Dugu Yan’s Challenge
The gem that Ning Rongrong wanted was not actually something precious, it was just a piece of amethyst.

Lan Hong played with it in her hand and tried to carve some patterns on it with sword energy. She did not put it in the space soul guide, but she did not expect that Ning Rongrong would take a fancy to it.

"Little girl, I bought this piece of purple crystal for 70 gold soul coins. If you pay 80 gold soul coins, I will sell it to you!"

"I'll give you 100 gold soul coins, give it to me now!"

"it is good!"

Lan Hong gave the amethyst to Ning Rongrong, and Ning Rongrong generously paid 100 gold soul coins.

Watching Ning Rongrong happily leaving with the amethyst, Lan Hong thought to herself, what a rich little woman! You know, one gold soul coin can support a commoner for a long time.

But Lan Hong still has to buy another crystal.

As for Ning Rongrong, she just bought the purple crystal in Lan Hong's hand on a whim because she thought it looked pretty. Ning Rongrong often did this kind of thing, and the people who secretly protected her were used to it.

Lan Hong didn't ask for too much, and they didn't pay too much attention to his existence.

When Ning Rongrong came home after having enough fun, she saw Ning Fengzhi with a stern face.

"Rongrong, you sneaked out again!"

"I'm just going out to have some fun!"

"How dare you talk back! Didn't I tell you to practice well?"

"Practicing is so boring! Dad, you don't accompany me, so I have to go out and play!"

"Feng Zhi, please don't make things difficult for Rong Rong. He's just a kid! It's inevitable that he likes to play!"

"Uncle Jian, you just dote on her too much! Rongrong has great talent, it would be a waste if she doesn't practice well!"

"Grandpa Jian, you see, dad always forces me to practice, but practice is so boring!"

"Okay! Okay! Okay! Grandpa Jian will accompany you to practice in the future. Do you want to practice swordsmanship with Grandpa Jian?"

"No! Practicing sword skills is so tiring! Is there a way to practice that won't make you tired at all?"

"You are such a wishful child!"

"what!"

Sword Douluo Chen Xin picked up the purple crystal that Ning Rongrong placed on her waist.

"Uncle Jian, what's wrong?"

"Rongrong, where did you get this amethyst?"

"I bought it from Tiandou City! Is it a treasure?"

"That's not the case. Can I give it to Grandpa Jian?"

"Of course! I only spent 100 gold soul coins to buy it. Isn't it amazing!"

"Okay, kid, go play!"

Ning Rongrong ran away skipping and jumping, and only then did Ning Fengzhi become serious.

"Uncle Jian!"

"Don't worry! I just sensed a subtle sword intent on this crystal! The scratches on it are the source of the sword intent."

"Ning Lin!"

"I'm here. Where did you buy this crystal, young lady?"

"Master, the young lady bought it from a passerby!"

"What does the passerby look like?"

"I don't care about this. The passerby is very ordinary and has no intention of deceiving the young lady, so..."

"Okay Fengzhi, let's just go with the flow!"

"Hey! Get down!"

"Yes!"

The reason why Ning Fengzhi attached so much importance to it was that he hoped to find a successor for Jian Douluo. Jian Douluo had very high requirements for his disciples and had not found a suitable disciple for many years.

At the same time, Ning Fengzhi also wanted to train the next generation of sect protector Douluo for the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect. After all, Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo are both old.

Lan Hong naturally knew nothing about what happened in the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect. He spent the rest of his time immersed in studying soul guides with Lan Mao. He forgot about time during this study and had not been to the Great Soul Fighting Arena to fight for many days.

This made Dugu Yan, who was waiting to compete with Lan Hong, accumulate a lot of resentment.

In Lan Hong’s dormitory, Lan Hong breathed a long sigh of relief.

"It's done! It's finally done!"

Lan Hong and Lan Mao worked together to create an offensive soul guide, but the attack power was a little weak. But they finally completed the breakthrough from zero to one.

The soul guide in Lan Hong's hand is somewhat similar to Tang San's hidden blade, both of which can shoot arrows.

It’s just that the power of Tang San’s sleeve arrows comes from mechanical expansion, while the power of the soul guide in Lan Hong’s hand comes from soul power.

The most critical part of a soul guide device is the soul guide patterns. These soul guide patterns are just like the circuits on a chip, which are extremely complex.

Even for this simple soul guide device, Lan Hong tried countless times before he finally developed a complete closed-loop soul guide pattern.

“After completing this breakthrough from zero to one, the rest of the things will be much easier.

I can take a break for a while. I am afraid I cannot buy all the materials to make a more advanced soul guide now, and I don’t have enough time.

Right now, the main thing is to improve my soul power level. I want to try to raise my soul power to level 40 within two years."

As for now, Lan Hong is going to Tiandou City to participate in the Soul Fighting. The Soul Fighting is a kind of relaxation for Lan Hong.

Not long after Lan Hong arrived at the Tiandou City Soul Fighting Arena, Dugu Yan came over with Ye Lingling.

Ye Lingling is now a healing soul master hired by the Great Fighting Soul Arena. She has discovered that frequently using soul skills for treatment can improve her control over soul skills.

Although this would be very tiring and consume a lot of soul power every day, she felt it was worth it, and the price offered by the Great Soul Fighting Arena was fair.

"Ms. Ye, Miss Dugu, you are here!"

"Hasn't that person come yet today?"

"No, Master Ziwu has already arrived and is preparing to participate in the spirit fight!"

"Oh! I finally found him! Go and help me inform him. I want to challenge him!"

"Okay, I'll go right away!"

Just as Lan Hong was getting ready, staff from the Fighting Spirit Arena came over.

"What's the matter?"

"Someone has issued a challenge to you. Do you want to accept it?"

"Another Blue Lightning Overlord?"

"No! The other party's code name is Bilin, a level 32 control-type soul master!"

"It's Dugu Yan. Why did she want to challenge me? Is she seeking revenge for Yu Tianheng?"

Lan Hong thought about it for a while and finally decided to accept the challenge.

Standing on the fighting arena, Dugu Yan looked at Lan Hong carefully, but Lan Hong's face was completely covered by the squirrel mask and no real appearance could be seen.

Lan Hong stood with a sword in his hand, and Dugu Yan also completed the possession of martial spirit.

"That guy Yu Tianheng boasted about how powerful you are, but I think he was just making excuses for himself. This time I will let you have a taste of defeat!"

Lan Hong was silent as usual. As the order was given, the fighting began. This time, Lan Hong chose to attack in an unusual way.

Lan Hong's sword brushed past her neck and cut off a piece of her hair.

If it weren't for the snake spirit's natural strong sense of danger, she would probably have been killed instantly at the first sight.

This time she completely gave up the idea of underestimating her opponent and immediately released her soul skills.

"First soul skill, red phosphorus poison! Second soul skill, blue phosphorus poison!"

Both of these are self-amplifying soul skills, one increases speed and strength, the other increases defense and reduces pain, and can also paralyze the opponent.

Just when Dugu Yanyao released his third soul skill, the Green Phosphorus Purple Poison, Lan Hong's Purple Cloud Sword attacked again.
