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

Chapter 729 Void Seclusion
It's better to have low morale than to be completely clueless. Intelligence is a crucial element in war; sometimes it can determine the outcome of a battle.

In the Endless Fire Domain, Cai Lin and Zi Yan went directly to Xiao Yan's door.

They abandoned their usual politeness and directly questioned Xiao Yan: "Why are only you two back? Where is Lan Hong? Where did he go?"

"This……"

"Speak! Don't tell me he's dead."

"Alas, in order to buy time for Lin Dong and me, the senior faced the three demons from beyond the realm—the Demon Ancestor, the Evil Ancestor, and the Slaughter Ancestor—all by himself. Their fate is now unknown."

Cai Lin felt a sudden darkness before her eyes, but fortunately Zi Yan caught her.

"Sister Cailin, are you alright? Don't scare me."

"I'm fine, Xiao Yan. Aren't you two good brothers? Why did you abandon him so easily?"

Faced with Cai Lin and Zi Yan, Xiao Yan really didn't know what to say and could only remain silent. Fortunately, Gu Xun'er came to his rescue at this moment.

“Sister Cailin, Sister Ziyan, don’t worry too much. I believe that our senior has his own reasons. He is not the kind of person who would give up his life easily.”

Gu Xun'er's words of comfort did have some effect. Now, they had no other choice but to believe that Lan Hong would return safely.

As luck would have it, the extraterrestrial demons attacked the Endless Fire Domain again at this time.

Cai Lin and Zi Yan vented all their anger on these extraterrestrial demons.

Cai Lin transforms into an ancient celestial serpent, while Zi Yan displays the form of a dragon and phoenix, slaughtering countless demons from beyond the realm.

They quickly drove back all the attacking extraterrestrial demons, but even so, they still felt they hadn't vented their anger enough.

On the other side, in the gap between the vast world and the outer realms, there is neither matter nor energy; it is a pure void.

But at this moment, lying in this void is an enormous black egg.

If you look closely, you'll find that this giant black egg is actually an incredibly compressed form of evil energy.

The giant egg naturally contained Lan Hong. After he fell into the void, carrying with him the evil energy of an entire space, all the evil energy was compressed into a giant egg, enveloping him inside.

Lan Hong is conscious, but completely unable to move. He still holds the Sword of Light in his hand, which gives him some comfort.

Lan Hong could clearly sense that more than 50% of his body was also tainted by evil energy.

In other words, his strong mental and spiritual power, coupled with the righteous energy he himself had gathered, kept his mind clear.

However, he himself was unsure how long he could maintain this clarity of mind.

"Sword of Light, could it be that even you are... at this very moment..."

Before Lan Hong could finish speaking, she felt a slight vibration emanating from the Sword of Light, as if it were expressing dissatisfaction.

It's as if he's saying, "It's your own fault for being bad, don't blame me."

Immediately afterwards, he felt a warm current slowly flowing into his body through the Sword of Light.

This is the Sword of Light transforming evil energy into its power. If the Sword of Light can transform all the evil energy in the entire compressed black giant egg into the energy of the Blue Rainbow.

Quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes, and Lan Hong's strength will surely see another huge improvement.

But this would inevitably take a lot of time, and he was afraid that by the time he came out of this black giant egg, the outside world would have changed drastically.

However, worrying is useless. All he can do now is cooperate with the Sword of Light and absorb the energy converted from it.

During this period, the world did not change much; war continued and had become the norm.

In order to cope with the normalization of war, the major powers in the world have also come up with some corresponding methods.

In short, we must meet force with force and water with earth; it is impossible for the extraterrestrial demons to breach the Great Thousand World in a short time. However, due to the constant warfare, a large number of extraterrestrial demons have died as cannon fodder, and the evil energy remaining in the Great Thousand World has secretly flowed towards the seal of the Heavenly Evil God.

The fact that none of the major powers in the world have discovered this is the most terrifying thing. Once the Heavenly Evil God has accumulated enough evil energy, he may break free of his seal at any time.

On the other hand, human thought and dreams are sometimes very mysterious things.

While resting, Cai Lin saw Lan Hong in her dream. Lan Hong was lying there quietly, holding the Sword of Light.

"As expected, what you think about during the day, you dream about at night? You always make people worry. I wonder where you've run off to. If you're still alive, give me a shout."

"I'm sorry to have worried you all again. Don't worry, I'm fine. I'm currently in seclusion in a void. You must take good care of yourselves before I come out."

Cai Lin looked at Lan Hong in her dream with surprise, but before she could say anything, the dream had already ended.

Once she regained consciousness, Cai Lin recalled the contents of her dream.

"Was it just a dream? No, it was definitely not a simple dream. It must be real. He's still alive, that's good."

Afterwards, Cai Lin went to find Zi Yan, and Zi Yan told Cai Lin that she had the same dream.

This made them even more certain that it wasn't just a simple dream, but rather Lan Hong letting them know she was safe.

Lan Hong didn't actually know how she managed to connect with Cai Lin and Zi Yan's dreams. That was good, it allowed her to let them know she was safe and that they wouldn't have to worry about her too much.

It is now almost certain that Lan Hong is dead, given that the three members of the Demon Ancestor, the Slaughter Ancestor, and the Evil Ancestor are in the lair of the extraterrestrial demons.

After all, Lan Hong could not be found anywhere, whether in the vast world or in the outer realms.

The three of them have now devised a new plan, and their target is the Endless Fire Domain.

The executor of the plan was Lu Zu, who loved killing the most and had been eager to try it out for a long time.

On this day, the Endless Fire Domain was once again attacked by extraterrestrial demons. Originally, it was thought to be an ordinary attack like before.

Unexpectedly, the one launching this attack with endless firepower was the elite of the extraterrestrial demons led by Lu Zu.

In just a short period of time, the Endless Fire Domain suffered heavy losses.

Xiao Yan arrived at the battlefield immediately and noticed Lu Zu at first glance.

"It's you!"

"Hehe, little guy, we meet again. How about the gift I brought you today?"

Lu Zu pointed to the corpses he had slaughtered around him and laughed as he spoke to Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan's face was ashen, and he wished he could kill him immediately, but he knew he couldn't do it.

"What did you do to Senior Lan Hong?"

"Oh, you mean that idiot who bought you time? Of course he's dead."

"I do not believe!"

"It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not, because you're about to die anyway."

As he spoke, Lu Zu attacked Xiao Yan, wielding a God-Slaying Spear, his spear technique being superb.

Xiao Yan, wielding the Eternal Ruler of Strange Flame, fought a deadly battle with the Ancestor Slaughter.
