Douluo Dalu: The Frozen Throne

Chapter 191: Leaving and Harvesting, the Thoughts of the Auspicious Beast and the Relics at the Foot of the Dragon Burial Mountain (5k)

Biji looked up at Di Tian's serious and cold face, smiled helplessly, and then said:

"As sons of destiny, it is normal for them to be close to each other. Moreover, the past of the auspicious beast is too monotonous and boring. It has carried too many expectations and pressures. Perhaps, this is not a bad thing for it."

A hint of helplessness appeared on Di Tian's stiff and cold face, and then he turned and walked towards the depths of the cave.

"As long as the auspicious beast is safe, leave it alone. It is too important to the Star Dou Great Forest. Neither I nor the master can tolerate any problems with it."

"Shu Yan... he is a very interesting human being. As you can see, he is growing at an astonishing speed. I even have a feeling that in ten years at most, he will be able to compete with me. But by then, his bone age will not even be more than thirty years old. Brigitte, you can think about it. This is only ten years from now. What if it's another fifty or a hundred years?"

Brigitte was startled, then said softly:

"With his talent and background, he should have become a god by then. Di Tian, ​​I hope that humans and soul beasts can usher in true peace, so I am optimistic about his soul method. Although I don't know what the master said to you, I believe that his plan must be of great importance. No matter what, you are the Beast God, and you should put the overall situation first."

Di Tian was stunned for a moment, then he nodded with his back to Brigitte, and his voice became a little softer.

"Don't worry, I'm measured."

Brigitte shook her head and chuckled, then said in an inexplicable tone:

"What about Ziji? How did you handle the love shown to you by a little dragon that just broke through 200,000 years ago?"

Hearing this, a rare look of helplessness appeared on Di Tian's handsome and serious face. He paused, then said:

"Brigitte, I..."

Seeing his look, Brigitte said with some amusement:

"Beast God, you can't be unable to handle even such a small matter, right? Don't let me look down on you..."

After saying that, Biji chuckled, and then turned into dots of green light and disappeared, leaving Di Tian alone standing in the darkness, somewhat lost in thought...

……

After staying in the most dangerous place in the Star Dou Great Forest for more than ten days, everyone was finally ready to return to Xingluo City. The several awakened ferocious beasts couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. After getting along for a few days, although the relationship between everyone was not very good, it was not the kind of relationship where they would fight as soon as they met.

Because of the soul issue, their attitude towards Shu Yan was the most gentle and friendly. Shu Yan had a final discussion with them and decided that when the time was right, he would start the real experiment. However, Xing Luo was still in the turmoil of clearing out the old and corrupt forces, so there was no time to deal with these things in a short period of time.

Before leaving, Di Tian gave Shu Yan a black dragon reverse scale, but Shu Yan naturally did not choose to wear it, but threw it directly into the storage soul guide. After all, this thing contained a trace of the power of heavenly punishment. Once worn on the body, it was equivalent to cutting off the connection with the divine test and even the divine world.

Di Tian also explained it truthfully, and just asked him to keep it. Once he encountered a crisis that could not be resolved, he could inject a trace of soul power into it. At that time, he would locate the location and travel through space to help. This could be regarded as a gesture of goodwill from Di Tian.

The only one who was unhappy about everyone's departure was the good soul beast Three-eyed Golden Lion. It had been following Shu Yan and his companions these days, and got a rough understanding of the excitement and bustle of the human world from them.

Shu Yan and Xu Jiujiu gradually became proficient in petting the cat, and each time they could make it relax and fall asleep comfortably. The various human food fed to it made it linger. The short time they spent together made its original life become boring. After everyone left, it lay listlessly beside the Lake of Life, staring blankly at the traces left by everyone's camp, as if it had lost its soul.

Brigitte gently stroked its soft fur and said helplessly:

"Lucky beasts, they are human beings. They will eventually return to their own country to live. Don't think too much. Be happy..."

Chi Wang didn't know what to say. When the auspicious beast was unhappy, he was usually the one who suffered. Don't ask why. The transformation from a good girl to a devil only took a moment. After thinking about it, Chi Wang took the lead in comforting himself.

It's just a little bit of wind and frost, it will pass sooner or later...

"Aunt Brigitte..."

The three-eyed golden lion called out softly, with a strange light flashing in his eyes...

……

In mid-air, Shu Yan looked at the piece of green metal full of life in his hand, weighed it with satisfaction, and then kept it properly.

This is the gold of life from the Golden Hawksbill Turtle. Shu Yan found this buddy these days and packed up the gold and the turtle and took them away. The Golden Hawksbill Turtle also agreed to this. Of course, this was not because the two Ice and Snow Emperors threatened him at the same time that if he dared not agree, he would hand it over to Emperor Tian for disposal...

Upon hearing this threat, the Golden Hawksbill Turtle, which had originally refused to surrender, suddenly panicked. As a top-level 100,000-year-old soul beast, its shell was incredibly hard. According to itself, the only soul beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest that could break its defense were Emperor Tian and the Bear King. After all, the Ice and Snow Emperors were both Far North soul beasts and could not be counted among them.

Thinking about Di Tian's dragon claw which was harder than his own, it finally chose to go into the world of the undead and leave with everyone. There was no soul beast in the Star Dou Great Forest that was not afraid of Di Tian. Of course, the auspicious beast was an exception.

The golden hawksbill turtle itself is also a small auspicious beast. Xu Jiujiu plans to raise it in Xingluo City, which must be beneficial to the country's fortune.

……

In the misty clouds, Shu Yan sorted out the gains from this trip. The Star Forest was a big family with a great business, and even Shu Yan couldn't help but agree with it.

Those soul bones were not so bad, some of them were natural treasures that Shu Yan had only seen in books, but in the core circle of the Star Dou Great Forest and the most dangerous places, there were quite a lot of them, and everyone accepted them all. As the saying goes, if you can take it, it will be a waste, and if you don’t take advantage of something, you’re a bastard.

What surprised Shu Yan the most were the two soul bones that the Bear King secretly sent to him. In the face of the continuation of his race, the king of the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear chose to bow his head quietly. These two soul bones came from the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear. One was the right arm bone, which was about 30,000 years old, and the other was the famous Dark Gold Terror Claw external soul bone. After research, Shu Yan determined that this was a palm bone, and the right palm bone was also the most precious and rare type of soul bone with the Dark Gold Terror Claw skill. In other words, the value of this soul bone was no less than a 100,000-year-old soul bone.

In the end, we can only say that Mr. Bear is still a smart bear. He is stupid, but sometimes he is still very smart.

Although the right arm bone was extremely precious, no one in the group was interested in it, so Shu Yan kept it. As for the external soul bone, Xu Jiujiu was the first to say that she didn't need it. Her starry sky martial soul made her a dual-element soul master who was good at long-range attack control.

The soul bones in her arms came from a 90,000-year-old golden tiger shark and a 100,000-year-old starlight unicorn respectively. These two soul bones gave her a physique far superior to that of soul masters of the same level, not to mention that the starlight right arm bone also gave her an extremely rare weapon-type soul skill. The Dark Gold Claw might be useful to her, but it actually didn't have much effect.

Ling Luochen and Su Tong were not very interested in this soul bone either. As for Zhang Lexuan and Han Ruoruo, they waved their hands again and again. With their status, they were not qualified to ask Shu Yan to give them such a precious soul bone.

After leaving the Star Dou Great Forest, the two of them had to return to Shrek Academy. Han Ruoruo had to apply for the graduation assessment and start graduation. As for Zhang Lexuan, it was probably the same for her.

According to common sense, they should have graduated from the inner courtyard long ago at their age, but one of them had nowhere to go except Shrek, and the other wanted to practice with her best friend, so even now they are still staying in the inner courtyard. But now it is different, both of them have goals. Han Ruoruo is determined to join Xingluo, and Zhang Lexuan has decided to stay with them to repay their kindness. This is a decision she made after struggling for a long time, and it can be regarded as her own determination.

……

After leaving the Xingdou Great Forest, Zhang Lexuan and Han Ruoruo flew towards Shrek City, and agreed with everyone to reunite in Xingluo City. After saying goodbye, the girls looked at Shu Yan, waiting for his decision.

Shu Yan looked at the land in the distant sky, thought for a while and then said:

"Jiujiu, Luochen, sister, you guys should go back to Xingluo City first. Sister Xue and I need to take care of some things. We will notify you if there is any need later."

The three of them looked at each other for a long time, and they all remembered the arrangement that Shu Yan had mentioned two nights ago, and then nodded. "A Yan, be careful, Luo Chen and I will wait for you at home."

As he said that, Xu Jiujiu walked up to Shu Yan and hugged him, then left a sweet kiss on Shu Yan's right cheek.

Ling Luochen hesitated for a moment, then leaned gently into Shu Yan's arms and said:
"Be careful..."

Then she suddenly raised her head and kissed Shu Yan on the left cheek. Then she came to Xu Jiujiu, not daring to look up at everyone.

Su Tong also hugged Shu Yan gently, and couldn't help but give him a few words of advice. The three of them watched the backs of Shu Yan and the other two disappear into the sky, and then they turned around and flew towards Xingluo City...

……

On the other side, above the clouds.

Shu Yan and the other two were flying side by side. Bingdi glanced at Shu Yan beside him, pouted, and looked a little unhappy.

Xue Di looked normal. The three of them moved at an extremely fast speed, leaving faint white marks wherever they passed. The direction they were heading was the border between the two countries in the north.

When the three of them passed by this place for the first time, they discovered that there seemed to be something hidden under the main peak of the Dragon Burial Mountain Range. Now that the time is right, the three of them decided to go and find out.

As a mountain shaped like a giant dragon appeared in the eyes of the three people, the surrounding environment had changed drastically. The original farmlands, villages and towns had all disappeared, replaced by endless rugged mountains.

Not far away is the base of the Northern Legion of the Xingluo Empire, and on the other side of the mountain is the jurisdiction of the Southern Legion of Tianhun. Because of the unique location of this mountain range, there are few humans in the nearby forests, and the ecology has basically maintained its original appearance.

The main peak of the Zanglong Mountain Range, Zanglong Mountain, is over one thousand feet high and reaches into the sky. It is quite spectacular when viewed from a distance. The three of them came to the same position as last time and then slowly landed on an exposed rocky area halfway up the mountain.

The surroundings were too quiet. At this location, the naked eye could hardly see any soul beasts. But after they had taken a few steps, a soul beast that looked like a griffin suddenly flew out from a cliff nearby and swooped down towards the three people.

The Ice Emperor glanced at the ignorant thousand-year-old dragon eagle, and then released a breath of air to scare it away.

"The soul beasts living in the Dragon Burial Mountains all have dragon blood. If I remember the records in the book correctly, there have been powerful dragon soul beasts such as the ten thousand year old golden earth dragon king and even the Tyrannosaurus Rex here."

Shu Yan said softly that this main peak was like a sharp sword inserted into the body of a giant dragon, giving people a feeling of solemnity and desolation. His mental power discovered a hint of unusual breath under this mountain. The expression of the Snow Emperor beside him also changed slightly. Only the Ice Emperor, whose mental power was not up to standard, followed behind the two with a depressed look on his face.

After walking for a while, the three of them stopped. Shu Yan looked down and exchanged a glance with Xue Di. Then the two of them determined their location.

The next moment, Snow Empress slapped down with one palm, and a hole with a diameter of about one and a half meters was cut out by the soul power. Countless hard objects were turned into powder by the powerful soul power. After a while, everyone's bodies fell into a strange suspended state.

Xue Di pulled the tense Bing Di and said softly:

"This is the surrounding space twisting and overlapping. Don't be nervous. This degree of twisting and overlapping is more like protecting something, not killing anyone who breaks in. A strong person who is proficient in the power of space can easily get through it."

Shu Yan also said at the right time:

"No wonder we didn't find anything despite our careful exploration. The space around here is constantly changing. Under such circumstances, those who are not proficient in the power of space cannot detect the abnormality here at all. No wonder Sister Xue could feel that breath before. After all, at that time, only Sister Xue controlled the incomplete power of space. But now it is completely different. After the yin and yang complementary dual soul cores are condensed and formed, as long as there is enough time, Sister Xue's understanding of the power of space will progress layer by layer until it reaches the limit."

Bingdi covered his ears and said angrily:

“Alright, alright, I know you two are perverted, okay? Stop talking. If you had the ability to let me encounter any opportunity like today ten thousand years ago, maybe I would have cultivated for five hundred thousand years now. To put it bluntly, it’s all your fault, Shu Yan…”

A huge black question mark suddenly appeared on Shu Yan's forehead. Xue Di smiled softly. Then the power of space surged around her, and a vortex quickly formed in the dark space. Xue Di said softly:

"Hold on to me, once we pass this space passage, we should be able to enter the mysterious space that is included."

Xue Di held Shu Yan's hand on each side, and Bing Di walked into the space passage side by side. Then the three figures disappeared, and the space vortex shrank little by little until it disappeared.

……

Dark space.

The scale of this space is not large, and even by releasing the mental power one can feel the boundaries brought by the space distortion.

The three of them were walking on the gravel-covered ground. The light around them was a little dim. Not far away was a cliff. Under the cliff was a basin-like area. The outlines of some vegetation could be vaguely seen under the black fog.

After the three jumped off the cliff and entered the black fog, they all frowned.

There was a peculiar aura of pressure lingering in the surrounding space. The dragon's might was nothing to them, but this dragon's might inexplicably made the three of them feel a sense of familiarity.

Bingdi hesitated for a moment, then spoke:
"This seems to be... the dragon might of the Black Dragon Clan. It is somewhat similar to the dragon might of Emperor Tian..."

Shu Yan and Xue Di also nodded, with slightly strange expressions.

After entering a forest, Shu Yan subconsciously touched a tree next to him, and then something surprising happened. The ancient tree that was still growing green leaves turned into powder in an instant. Shu Yan was silent for a moment, looking at the powder in his hand, then raised his hand and waved it. A gust of wind swept past, and the forest in front of him turned into powder and dissipated between heaven and earth in an instant, leaving only knee-deep powder to prove that everything just now was not an illusion.

"They have existed for too long. The reason they can maintain their original appearance is because the environment here is too special. Our entry has affected the environment here. As long as there is any movement, the scene maintained on the surface will collapse instantly, revealing its decayed nature."

Xue Di said lightly, and then continued to walk forward.

Shu Yan dusted off his hands, shrugged, and didn't say anything more.

……

The deeper they went, the stronger and more powerful the overwhelming dragon power became. It was hard to imagine that the cultivation level of three people would be affected in this way.

The Snow Emperor and the Ice Emperor relied on their powerful cultivation to resist, while Shu Yan relied on the Black Dragon's Reverse Scales given by Di Tian to disperse the pressure and move forward. The dragon's might here has been accumulated for a long time and has become so strong that it can affect the operation of mental and soul power. The dragon's might emitted so long after death can still have an impact on Super Douluo and Extreme Douluo. The owner of this place must have been extremely powerful before his death.

The three of them had some guesses in their minds, but no one took the initiative to speak until they walked through a black curtain and a dragon corpse as huge as a hill appeared before their eyes. Black air currents were constantly weaving through the snow-white dragon bones like a long snake. Looking up at the dragon corpse, even though it had been fallen for an unknown amount of time, one could still judge from its huge size and the unique aura around it that it was a powerful dragon with the blood of the black dragon.

After the three of them paused for a moment, Xue Di spoke again:
“Although this dragon might is somewhat similar to the dragon might of Di Tian, ​​it seems that the bloodline level of this giant dragon in front of me is not as good as Di Tian’s. When I fought with Di Tian in the Far North, I felt the dragon might he released when he went all out. That aura was extremely pure. However, even though the realm of this giant dragon before death may be higher than Di Tian’s, its aura is not as pure as Di Tian’s.”

Shu Yan was silent for a moment, then said:
"If I'm not mistaken, this should be the corpse of a Dark Holy Dragon. This Dark Holy Dragon was definitely a True God-level existence when he was alive. If he didn't become a god, even if his strength reached the Ultimate Douluo level before his death, he would not be able to fight against time, let alone leave behind such a space."
