Douluo Continent: Starting from Killing Arou with a Single Sword.

Chapter 22 Recovery

"It's absorbed it so quickly?" Ning Mumu was somewhat surprised. It had only been a few hours; a Title Douluo was indeed extraordinary. She sincerely congratulated Dugu Bo, "Now you don't have to worry about the toxins anymore."

"Thank you, Miss Mu Mu!" Dugu Bo knelt on one knee, his eyes filled with respect and admiration. "Miss Mu Mu, I, Dugu Bo, am willing to join the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and I will never regret it!"

Ning Mumu was a little confused. She hadn't even mentioned this idea yet, and Dugu Bo had already gotten the hang of it. Not bad, not bad.

A satisfied smile unconsciously appeared on Ning Mumu's lips. "Really? I remember you don't seem to join any sects."

"I would never joke about such a thing. I truly admire the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and sincerely thank Miss Mu Mu," Dugu Bo said earnestly. "Without Miss Mu Mu, my poison might have suffocated me until I died."

"Alright then," Ning Mumu took out a token and handed it to Dugu Bo. "I'll make the decision. From now on, you will be an elder of my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. The sect will not treat you unfairly."

Ning Mumu is the young master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, so giving Dugu Bo a token is something she can easily do. Moreover, a Title Douluo is something many sects would kill for, so Ning Mumu giving him a token is a way of leaving a mark to prevent others from coveting it.

Now that Dugu Bo's problem has been solved, his eyes should be able to recover as well.

"Dugu Bo, now that you're a member of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, how about I use this place?" To break the seal, one needs to be in a place like the Ice and Fire Dual Realm. Ning Mumu had subdued Dugu Bo, but she still chose to ask him.

"Of course, Miss Mu Mu can have whatever she wants without having to tell me!" Dugu Bo was a little excited. It was his good fortune that Miss Mu Mu had taken a liking to his small place.

Dugu Bo had always regarded this place as a precious place for healing. He could only touch some of the herbs inside, as the rest were poisonous and could only be looked at, not touched.

"Miss Mu Mu, please be careful. Most of the creatures here are poisonous," Dugu Bo kindly reminded her, taking the opportunity to gain her favor.

"Okay," Ning Mumu nodded, "I understand."

"Dugu Bo, these are some pills to strengthen your body and restore your vitality. You have just finished clearing the toxins and your body is in a state of deficiency. These pills can help you recover."

Ning Mumu then turned to Ning Luoluo, "Luoluo, I'll be doing some things these next few days and won't be by your side. Take this Seven-Skill Myriad Treasures Pill. I'll explain the reason to you later. Remember, if you have any questions, go to Dugu Bo."

Ning Luoluo nodded obediently, her heart overflowing with gratitude. Her sister was so kind, even giving her a pill! ヾ(■_■)ノ

Ning Mumu was satisfied; while she was recovering her eyes, they couldn't just sit idly by. Roll them up, roll them all up!

Opening her divine sense, Ning Mumu sensed the entire treasure land. The rich spiritual energy and the spiritual herbs covering the ground swayed gently in the breeze.

Scorching heat and icy cold intertwine, red and blue alternate—two completely opposite things coexisting in the same pool. A world of fire and ice, is that it? Are your abilities as legendary as the rumors suggest?

Ning Mumu was somewhat anxious, but entering the realm of ice and fire was not something that could be done easily. Ancient texts mentioned that one must find two things in the world that are extremely cold and extremely hot, mutually generating and restraining each other, in order to counteract the threat posed by the realm of ice and fire.

With a quick scan using her divine sense, Ning Mumu discovered the Blazing Apricot Blossom and the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass. These two spiritual herbs appeared ordinary, but were in fact extremely poisonous. Consuming just one of them would be difficult even for a Golden Core cultivator to withstand. However, consuming both simultaneously would allow one to enter a state of extreme heat and cold.

Two spiritual herbs grew opposite each other: the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass was on one side of the Cold Spring, while the Fiery Apricot was on the other side of the Fire Spring.

They found it, but retrieving it was difficult. Ning Mumu remembered that the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass was an extremely cold flower that could instill a chill in the heart and freeze the nerves. Moreover, the cold was biting within ten meters, and if one stayed there for too long, the cold would penetrate to the bone, freezing the whole body, and there was no cure.

Similarly, the fiery apricot blossom has the opposite properties. It is extremely hot; touching it is like being burned by fire, unbearably hot.

To try and pluck them with one's bare hands is clearly a pipe dream. A mortal body would rot at the slightest touch, and Ning Mumu is merely a Soul Emperor with an ordinary physical body. Furthermore, after plucking the two plants, they must be refined or consumed within ten seconds, otherwise they will lose their medicinal properties.

Right, Ning Mumu patted her head and decided to use her spiritual power to capture both plants at the same time!

Without hesitation, Ning Mumu used her milky-white spiritual energy to form a thin rope, effortlessly taking down the two plants. She increased the amount of spiritual energy she channeled until the milky-white energy enveloped the two plants before taking the Fiery Apricot and the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass in her hands and rapidly refining them.

Eating grass directly would be too crude and a complete waste. Not only would the medicinal effects be difficult to fully exert, but it would also cause immense pain during body tempering. Ning Mumu wasn't stupid; she chose to refine it.

The spiritual energy from the dual nature of ice and fire shouldn't be wasted; it should be put to good use. Ning Mumu placed the alchemy furnace at the boundary between ice and fire, relying on natural resources to refine the Blazing Apricot and the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass; the effect would be even better.

As expected, it only took half an hour. Ning Mumu put away the alchemy furnace, looked at the Fiery Apricot and Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass in her hand, which had been completely refined into a bottle of liquid droplets, and smiled.

I don't know who suggested taking it directly; it was a complete waste. Now that it's refined, one drop per person is enough, and this bottle is enough for more than a dozen people!

By the way, let's come up with a name. What should we call it?

Let's call this ultimate collision of ice and fire "Ice and Fire Mirror"!

Ning Mumu, who's terrible at naming things, couldn't think of anything and just made one up. Now, there's only one step left to solve her eye problem—refining the Myriad Bright Eyes Pill!

As its name suggests, the Wanming Chumu Pill is a miraculous elixir for treating eye ailments. Ning Mumu had reserved the spiritual herbs long ago, and now she took out the materials and began refining the pill right next to the Ice and Fire Heaven.

The success rate is similar to that of the Heavenly Wonder Pill, with 38 finished pills, only 10 of which are grade three, and the rest are grade two or above.

A flawless version after careful inspection!

"This is truly a treasure land," Ning Mumu exclaimed. She then swallowed the Myriad Bright Eyes Pill and the Ice-Fire Mirror, leaping directly into the Nine Heavens of Ice and Fire.

The clash of extreme hot and cold—for the first time in Douluo Continent, Ning Mumu felt pain. But the more pain she felt, the more excited she became. She could already feel the changes in her body; with the alternation of hot and cold, the blockages in her meridians were completely cleared, and upon closer inspection, the red and blue colors were slowly merging!

"It truly is a treasure of heaven and earth; its body-tempering effects are maximized." Ning Mumu exclaimed, now completely immune to water and fire.

However, the eyes are still not quite ready, after all, they have been sealed for twelve years, and the repair time will be long.

After Ning Mumu fully adapted to the Nine Heavens of Ice and Fire, her eyes slowly began to move again. At the same time, the effects of the Myriad Bright Eyes Pill gradually became apparent. Ning Mumu had reached the boundary of regaining her sight.

"Thump—"

The white silk ribbon turned to dust and vanished in an instant. Ning Mumu slowly opened her eyes, her icy blue pupils breathtakingly beautiful. She stood still in the mist, her gaze cold, like a goddess in a sacred mountain, incomparably holy.

These were her real eyes. Ning Mumu rolled her eyes, and in a moment, her eyes could perceive color again. Finally, her sight was restored.

Huh, what's this? Ning Mumu accurately detected a wisp of black energy coming from her eyes.

"Heh, interesting. The demonic energy of the cultivation world appearing in Douluo Continent? Ning Mumu doesn't believe it's a coincidence."

Aren't too many coincidences man-made? It seems she's not the only one reborn in Douluo Continent; this is really interesting.

"They even dared to place demonic energy within my body. It seems this demon is quite audacious." Ning Mumu narrowed her eyes, filled with disgust. That demon had better stay put for the rest of his life. If he dared to start a war, Ning Mumu would spare no effort until the demon race was destroyed.
