Douluo Continent: My Days in the Tang Sect

"Search for Xu Tianran?"

"Xu Tianran is still alive?"

"Of course he's alive. He's an escapee, otherwise he wouldn't be wanted."

Inside the conference room, those who were not qualified to sit at the conference table but instead sat in rows of chairs below, whispering amongst themselves.

They are not interested in an empire suddenly changing emperors, or a previous emperor being suddenly deposed.

After all, such things were not uncommon in dynasties and empires throughout history.

It's quite normal for brothers to fight each other for the throne, and for blood relatives to turn against each other with swords.

What about fathers and sons becoming enemies, brothers killing each other, and murdering relatives to seize power?

Once upon a time, an emperor, after personally killing his own blood relative to ascend the throne, uttered a classic line that is etched into the history of the Douluo World.

"Those who aspire to great things are willing to kill even their closest relatives."

These ten bloody words cannot fully express the cruelty of the struggle for the throne.

But the titled Douluos were interested in one thing: Kong Deming personally took action, yet he still couldn't capture Xu Tianran?

Oh, the Evil Eye Tyrant has intervened.

Eh?
The Evil Eye Tyrant has invaded Xu Tianran?!
From collective silence to an uncontrollable murmur of discussion, and finally, gasps of shock rang out.

Kong Deming met Xuan Lao's gaze and, without further beating around the bush, directly revealed the information he possessed.

When they heard that Xu Tianran's mind had indeed been invaded and even controlled by the Evil Eye Tyrant, the powerful figures present all turned solemn.

The powerful cultivators present had heard of the invasion of human beings' spiritual sea and the control of their behavior, and had even witnessed the tragedy of having their brains devoured after failing to capture a spirit beast with spiritual attributes.

This time, the protagonist is Xu Tianran, the cold-blooded emperor who once ruled the Sun Moon Empire, and the mysterious second ferocious beast, the Evil Eye Tyrant.

The group of powerful figures were whispering among themselves, discussing how to capture Xu Tianran and his identity.

But the Shrek members realized the seriousness of the problem.

Cai Meier immediately followed up, "Old Kong, do you mean Xu Tianran's brain has been invaded by the Evil Eye Tyrant Ruler, and he's already under the Evil Eye Tyrant Ruler's control?"

Kong Deming closed his eyes slightly, sighed heavily, and nodded.

Xu Tianran is indeed a very strong person with a strong will, but he does not specialize in mental power. On the other hand, the Evil Eye Tyrant is a ferocious beast that specializes in mental power and has a cultivation level of over 800,000 years.

Kong Deming did not believe that Xu Tianran could still maintain his individuality.

Yan Shaozhe's expression was somewhat grim. He muttered to himself, "If Xu Tianran is controlled by the Evil Eye Tyrant, given the Evil Eye Tyrant's abilities, reading Xu Tianran's memories would be an easy task. A beast wouldn't care about Xu Tianran's life or death."

Although he was speaking to himself, everyone present was a powerful figure who had broken through to the ninth ring and become a Title Douluo, so their hearing was naturally excellent.

Therefore, when Yan Shaozhe expressed his concerns, everyone present changed their expressions.

Especially the several level-nine soul masters from the Sun Moon Empire.

They hold high positions in society and are well-informed about news from the upper echelons and political figures.

As a cold-blooded emperor who once firmly controlled the Sun Moon Empire, Xu Tianran's mind contained all the secrets of the empire!
In other words, in the eyes of the Evil Eye Tyrant, the current Sun Moon Empire is a castle with its gates open!

The defensive forces and combat capabilities of major cities will be exposed to the eyes of the Evil Eye Tyrant!

"Mr. Kong!"

A level nine Soul Master suddenly looked at Kong Deming.

Kong Deming waved his hand slightly, "I have classified the intelligence as top secret and sent it to the palace immediately."

However, even though Kong Deming took remedial measures immediately, he, like these level nine soul masters, was filled with trepidation and unease.

Not to mention covering the entire Sun Moon Empire, the defense map of Mingdu alone was deeply imprinted in Xu Tianran's mind.

No one knows how intelligent the Evil Eye Tyrant is.

If the Evil Eye Tyrant Overlord cracks the Soul Guidance Device, will the Sun Moon Empire's greatest reliance be compromised?

Will the Sun Moon Empire, which was founded on the use of soul tools, face the mad revenge of the Evil Eye Tyrant?

Although Yan Shaozhe is the dean of the Martial Soul Department of Shrek Academy, he has also taken the initiative to learn about soul tools under the influence of Ye Nanxiao over the years and knows their potential, which is also what worries him.

"Probably not?"

A titled Douluo from the Heavenly Soul Empire spoke cautiously.

“A beast is still a beast. Even if it gains intelligence, it cannot imitate human technology.”

This viewpoint garnered the agreement of the powerful figures from both the Heavenly Soul Empire and the Fighting Spirit Empire.

But Xuanji Douluo, representing the Star Luo Empire, remained silent.

The tragedy at Xingluo Palace still lingered in his mind.

Even if beasts don't know how to use technology and disdain to create it, they can still exploit humans as long as they control them.

The Evil Eye Tyrant Overlord doesn't possess soul tools, but the controlled soul masters do. So, wouldn't it be enough to issue a control command to make the puppet move and generate its own electricity?
Elder Xuan tapped the table and looked at Kong Deming, "With your abilities, you can't track down Xu Tianran?"

Kong Deming shook his head. "The Evil Eye Tyrant has sided with the Abyss." During the world-ending impact of the war behemoth's self-destruction, he had considered burning his own essence to track down Xu Tianran and capture him.

However, it seems that the Evil Eye Tyrant has acquired some new ability and applied it to Xu Tianran, causing his tracking methods to fail and making it impossible for him to sense and track Xu Tianran.

After the explosion, he forcibly activated his power to expand his perception range, but he still couldn't find Xu Tianran's whereabouts.

Xu Tianran himself certainly didn't have that ability; it could only have been done by the Evil Eye Tyrant.

"We need to spare some resources to hunt down Xu Tianran, but given Xu Tianran's current abilities, it would be dangerous for anyone below the level of a Super Douluo to go there."

Xuan Lao unconsciously tapped the table with his fingertips.

His way of thinking was gradually assimilated by Ye Nanxiao.

Xu Tianran was originally a level 94 Nine Extremes Soul Master, and after the Evil Eye Tyrant obtained Xu Tianran's body, he was able to continue developing it, while also greatly strengthening his weakness in mental power.

"On the optimistic side, Xu Tianran is able to unleash combat power approaching level 97."

Kong Deming's analysis still took into account that the Evil Eye Tyrant Ruler was not suited to Xu Tianran's special body.

Below the lower abdomen is the Soul-Guided Prosthetic.

Furthermore, that part was not an original component, but rather a borrowed animal limb.

That thing, even after being taught some methods by the Holy Spirit, is still an instinctive influence that is difficult to control.

Kong Deming estimated that even if the Evil Eye Tyrant Sovereign had strong mental power, he would still have to constantly use his power to suppress the effects of the beast limb parts.

This is an opportunity.

He has already sent a message to Xu Tianzhen to seal off the border and tighten controls, allowing only Allied forces carrying three encrypted tokens to enter and exit.

However, when it came to the formation of the team to hunt down Xu Tianran, all three factions fell silent.

Based on the information we have, Xu Tianran's combat power can reach that of a Super Douluo, which means that joining the capture team is useless for anyone below the Super Douluo level.

Combat power above Super Douluo level.

The Douling Empire only has Tianyang Douluo, so he's not good enough to be considered a member of the elite.

The Star Luo Empire had suffered heavy losses, and its super-powerful forces consisted only of Xuanji Douluo and Shattered Star Douluo, which was already the greatest show of sincerity.

Currently, it seems that only the Body Sect and the Heavenly Soul Empire have a relatively large number of super combat forces.

But will these brutes with only muscles in their heads be completely fooled by Xu Tianran?
Kong Deming glanced at the super combat power in his own support force and made some calculations in his mind.

"I'll go instead."

This time, Xu Tianran no longer had the war behemoths or the elite troops of the Sun Moon Empire as bargaining chips to delay him.

He had no help.

All Soul Masters belonging to the Sun Moon Empire must join the construction of the other two blocking bases.

"I object! The Body Sect is equally adept at tracking down this matter!"

Just when everyone thought the matter was settled, Poison Undying suddenly jumped out.

"Let the Body Sect hunt down Xu Tianran, and at the same time, destroy the lair of the Evil Eye Tyrant Ruler!"

"That so-called Demon Forest, right? Let's just blast it clean!"

Upon hearing this, everyone present showed a helpless expression.

The Body Sect is a bunch of muscle-bound idiots.

Kong Deming looked at a level nine soul master from the Sun Moon Empire, who immediately said, "The Demon Forest has been completely ruled by the Evil Eye Tyrant. Any creature in it could be an informant of the Evil Eye Tyrant."

"Even if you force your way in, you will be hit by the unpredictable mental shock and mental plunder."

"In the last recorded confrontation between my Sun Moon Empire and the Evil Eye Tyrant, five level-nine Soul Masters, carrying fixed-position Soul Guidance Cannons, forcibly broke into the Demon Forest, but ultimately three died and two were injured."

As soon as he finished speaking, all the powerful figures present felt that the situation was troublesome.

The ninth-level Soul Masters of the Sun Moon Empire are well-equipped and possess numerous skills.

Moreover, they also possess level nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shells.

The Demon Forest is not large; only about twenty fixed-position soul-guided shells are needed to create a barrage.

"The soul-guided devices used for mental defense are not yet able to keep up with the terrifying mental power of the Evil Eye Tyrant."

"If the fixed-position soul-guided cannon is loaded and fired from the furthest distance, it will be detected by the Evil Eye Tyrant Overlord, who will then block it in advance in any way."

"My research on the Silver Moon Divine Light Shield has reached a point of unity. In terms of mental strength, it should be able to withstand the attack of the Evil Eye Tyrant."

Just as Kong Deming was discussing with the group of powerful figures, Elder Xuan suddenly received a message. He then tapped the table and said, "There's no need to argue anymore. Let Huo Yuhao deal with the Evil Eye Tyrant Ruler."

"Huo Yuhao?"

"You mean the youngest of the Shrek Seven Devils? He hasn't even broken through to the Title Douluo level yet!"

Elder Xuan waved his hand slightly, "It's just a matter of swallowing a treasure to level up; it won't take long." (End of Chapter)
