The Star Luo Emperor was pacing back and forth in his bedchamber as well, his expression grave.
"If that big eye can fight Beast God Di Tian to that extent in the future, its strength really is beyond comprehension."
"But... luckily, it only ranks sixth."
"It's hard to imagine what kind of monsters rank above it."
At the thought, the Star Luo Emperor couldn't help shivering.
The leaders of the two great empires were shocked, but also felt a little relieved.
"So what if it's powerful? The Evil Demon Forest is in the Sun Moon Empire, overseas."
"Across an endless ocean, it could have all the power in the world and still wouldn't be able to come knocking on our door, would it?"
At the same time, many far-sighted people had already turned their attention to the Nine-Colored Rainbow Dragon on the Sky Screen.
"The Sun Moon Empire has the Evil Eye Tyrant Sovereign to rely on."
"But does our Douluo Continent really have no trump card of its own?"
"If we can find that Rainbow Divine Dragon, the one that sent the Evil Eye Tyrant Sovereign flying like an insect... Even if we can only cling to its massive thigh, we won't have to fear the Sun Moon Empire anymore!"
For a time, whispers about searching for the Rainbow Dragon spread among the great powers.
In the Crown Prince's residence of the Heaven Dou Empire, Qian Renxue, currently posing as Xue Qinghe, was already struggling to stay on her feet.
Her beautiful eyes were wide open, and the scene of the Rainbow Divine Dragon's arrival played over and over in her mind.
"Nine-Colored Divine Dragon... Rainbow..."
"Could this have something to do with that person?"
Qian Renxue thought back to the time she had shared drinks with Long Yun at the Soul Fighting Tavern.
Long Yun had been so relaxed then. During their conversation, he had even mentioned distant lands across the sea and the existence of the Sun Moon Empire.
Back then, she had taken it as nothing more than a story.
But now, the Sky Screen had shown it all to the world, plain as day!
"Everything he said was true."
"He even knew about the Sun Moon Empire long ago."
Qian Renxue's heart pounded. In that moment, her wavering thoughts were overturned.
"Could he... really be one of our ancestors?"
"Or could he be that true god?"
Qian Renxue's expression shifted uncertainly.
When Di Tian's comment confirmed that all of this would happen in the future, her anxiety only deepened.
"If even the Sun Moon Empire will appear in the future, then what will become of our Spirit Hall?"
"Will Spirit Hall even still exist in the future?"
Just as Qian Renxue's thoughts were beginning to tangle into a knot, one of her trusted subordinates appeared silently behind her.
"Reporting to you, Young Master. We've made progress in the matter you asked me to investigate."
"Tell me!"
Qian Renxue turned around urgently.
The subordinate lowered his head respectfully and said in a low voice:
"Our people searched the area outside Heaven Dou City and discovered that the man in the painting seems to have recently appeared at an organization called Rainbow Academy."
"According to our informants, he seems to have an unusual connection to that academy."
"Rainbow Academy?"
Qian Renxue murmured the name, a brilliant light flashing in her eyes.
Rainbow again!
"Long Yun, you really are no ordinary person."
Qian Renxue looked down at herself.
Although she was disguised as a man, beneath her loose robes was a figure with curves that could rival any woman in the world.
Especially her long, straight, snow-white legs, which radiated an irresistible allure beneath the sacred power of her Angel Soul Power.
"No matter who you are, I have to make a trip to Rainbow Academy."
"This time, I'll meet you as my true self."
Qian Renxue took a deep breath, and a trace of anticipation slipped into her previously troubled heart.
"I have to ask you about all of this in person!"
Meanwhile, far away in Spirit City.
Pope Palace.
In the dimly lit hall, Pope Bibi Dong sat quietly upon the throne that symbolized supreme authority.
She wore a magnificent papal robe. The hem of her skirt was slit slightly, revealing her full, shapely legs in delicate black stockings.
Her elegant legs were crossed, radiating a stunning allure in the dim light.
Yet Bibi Dong's expression was dark.
"The future..."
"Has even fate already been written?"
Bibi Dong's jade-like hand gripped the Pope Scepter so tightly that her knuckles had turned slightly white.
The powers shown on the Sky Screen had already surpassed her control.
The eight-hundred-thousand-year-old Evil Eye Tyrant, Beast God Di Tian, whose strength was close to nine hundred thousand years.
And the Rainbow Divine Dragon, which had crushed the Evil Emperor with casual ease.
Every one of them possessed immense power.
"My plans... Did the future of Spirit Hall really end in failure?"
Bibi Dong felt a pain and urgency she couldn't put into words.
She had worked tirelessly on her plans for so many years, enduring the agony of the Rakshasa God Trial to overturn this world.
But now the Sky Screen was telling her that the future held many more terrifying beings beyond her control.
"What will the future become?"
Bibi Dong closed her eyes in pain. Without realizing it, she found herself longing to see the next ranking on the Sky Screen.
Just as the entire continent was swept up in endless commotion and panic over the word "future,"
the rainbow glow on the Sky Screen finally faded.
In its place appeared a dazzling golden light.
The Sky Screen was about to distribute the rewards!
In an instant, everyone fixed their eyes on the sky.
In the Evil Demon Forest, the Evil Eye Tyrant Sovereign, still seething with grievance, raised its enormous eyeball at once.
"It's here! My reward is finally here!"
It cried out in wild joy, tears of excitement almost spilling from its eye.
It had already lost enough face.
If the reward wasn't generous enough this time, then the Evil Emperor would truly become a laughingstock across the universe.
"As long as this Emperor gets a heaven-defying reward, I can not only cross that threshold and defeat Di Tian!"
"Perhaps... I'll even have a chance to surpass that Rainbow Divine Dragon!"
Under the Evil Emperor's near-frenzied gaze,
golden words appeared slowly in the void above the Sky Screen, each one like a divine decree.
[Rank 6 on the Soul Beast Ranking: Evil Eye Tyrant Sovereign.]
[Reward One: Cultivation increased by five hundred thousand years.]
[Reward Two: God-Level Laws Domain—Space-Time Domain.]
[Reward Three: One Space-Time Attribute God-Level Soul Bone, exclusive to Soul Beasts.]
Boom!
As the rewards were announced, the comments on the Sky Screen fell silent for an instant, then exploded in a frenzy.
"My god! Five hundred thousand years of cultivation?!"
"Did I read that right? That's a full five hundred thousand years!"
"King of Ten Thousand Demons only gained three hundred thousand years, but the Evil Eye Tyrant Sovereign got five hundred thousand!"
"It was already a Ferocious Beast with eight hundred thousand years of cultivation. Add another five hundred thousand... Doesn't that mean it'll reach one million three hundred thousand years?!"
"A million-year Soul Beast! Is a true million-year Soul Beast really about to be born in this world?"
