Douluo Continent: So What If I Reincarnate as Ning Rongrong?

Chapter 231 It's him, it's definitely him!

"But how are we going to get in?"

Dugu Yan expressed doubts about Ning Rongrong's proposal.

The way the soul beasts interact in this area is very strange. There are thousand-year soul beasts in the ten-thousand-year soul beast group, and thousand-year soul beasts of different races can play together. They don't have the bloodthirstiness that I've seen in other races in the far north these days.

It's important to understand that, aside from different species, it's not uncommon for intelligent soul beasts to kill each other, even among their own species.

"Come on, follow me." Ning Rongrong didn't explain, but directly grabbed Dugu Yan's hand and slowly flew down from the mountain pass. The two of them landed gently on the ground.

Even a hundred meters away from the two, two ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts were playing with each other, completely ignoring Ning Rongrong and Dugu Yan.

"How could you...?"

"Shh—" Ning Rongrong put her index finger to her lips and gently shook her head. Without Kurumi's help, she couldn't perform full five-sense operation right now.

Often, it is through clever tricks that one can achieve seemingly unbelievable results.

Now, all she can do is distort the other person's vision and sense of smell.

Since both of them could conceal themselves from being detected, they flew carefully and slowly.

Within this area of ​​over ten square kilometers, there are dozens of ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts. If they were to riot, he and Dugu Yan wouldn't even be enough to fill their teeth.

Ning Rongrong and Dugu Yan arrived at the edge of a huge mountain crevice, and the two looked down.

Dugu Yan looked down at the pitch-black area below and couldn't help but swallow hard.

Out of the corner of her eye, she glanced at the gathering place of soul beasts that dared only stay at a distance and not approach, and her eyelids twitched: "Are we really going down?"

"What if we accidentally commit suicide together... no, I mean, I have a feeling that things will be very dangerous next!" Dugu Yan quickly added.

"Indeed, those soul beasts clearly like this place, but they dare not approach the crack, as if they are filled with fear."

Because it was a bit far from where the soul beasts gathered, and Ning Rongrong deliberately used a barrier to block the sound, she wasn't worried about being noticed, since she had already activated her martial soul.

"Is there a Snow Emperor or Ice Emperor down there?" Dugu Yan's eyes twitched.

You need to have a strong heart to go out with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

Encountering Title Douluo-level beings is commonplace; those below level 95 are embarrassed to even stroll around with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

"I know where the Snow Empress is; she's not here. As for the Ice Empress..."

"Hmm, it seems a bit close, but we're unlikely to run into her. She's usually inseparable from Yuki-tei."

"Uh, you mean those two soul beasts are inseparable?"

"Who knows!" Ning Rongrong shrugged.

Where did Dugu Yan get these strange vocabulary words?

"Should we release the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger?" Dugu Yan said worriedly.

"No." Ning Rongrong shook her head. "I won't release that guy unless it's absolutely necessary. That would just be asking for trouble."

"Last time I was teleported to the far north, if it weren't for the Snow Empress stopping me and the Ice Empress appearing, Kurumi would probably have slaughtered the Ice Jade Scorpion clan, which belonged to the Ice Empress, to use as her energy."

Although it seems that no soul beasts died at that time, who knows what will happen later! And this place is so close to the Ice Emperor's Palace.

If Kurumi were released, Hyotei, with her keen sense of smell, might discover something and come knocking on our door. Then what's the point of searching for the Ten Thousand Year Cold Marrow?

"Sister Yan Yan, hug me from behind," Ning Rongrong said.

"Ha ha?"

"Hurry up!" Ning Rongrong explained, "If you fly like you just now, I might not be able to notice you if something unexpected happens."

"I...I understand." Dugu Yan hugged Ning Rongrong from behind with both hands and tightened her grip.

"Hey! I can't breathe, Sister Yan Yan..." Ning Rongrong said with a dark expression, "As long as the true energy flows and covers your whole body, it will be fine."

Honestly, don't they know they have a lot of curves?

What if I get a herniated disc from being squeezed?

Although, this is unlikely.

"Uh, I understand." Dugu Yan then slightly loosened her grip on Ning Rongrong's hand.

"Let's go..." Dugu Yan and Ning Rongrong were covered in white light.

The two flew deeper into the rift valley.

About ten minutes later, Dugu Yan felt a little frustrated: "It's so dark around here, I can't see anything!"

"I saw it. I didn't expect it to be like this." Ning Rongrong's pupils shone with an unusual light, and even in the pitch black, she could still see her surroundings clearly.

"It's all ancient ice, something feels off."

Ice blocks that can remain stable for tens of thousands of years after certain geological changes and environmental shifts are called ten-thousand-year-old ice.

The Ten-Thousand-Year Cold Marrow is formed from a large amount of ten-thousand-year-old ice, the cold air emitted over countless years, and the cleansing effect of the essence of the sun and moon, creating a stable, special kind of creation.

Its characteristics are that it is more stable than ice, its coldness is more profound, and it is also more medicinal and valuable.

"Found it." Ning Rongrong's pupils contracted slightly.

A bluish-white patch, appearing only as a white dot from a distance, is an ice block etched on the stone wall.

Ning Rongrong accelerated her descent and soon saw the full view of the Ten Thousand Year Cold Marrow.

"Why is it round?" Ning Rongrong frowned.

Previously, in those ancient sect texts, the Ten-Thousand-Year Cold Marrow was mostly described as having an irregular, prismatic structure, but now…

Is that basketball-sized glowing object really the Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Cold Marrow? Faintly, the phantom of a strange animal can be seen emerging from it.

The cold air it releases has a chilling effect that penetrates to the bone.

Something's not right, absolutely not right.

"What happened?" Dugu Yan also felt the bone-chilling coldness emanating from the "basketball" in front of her.

That was something colder than the cold poison she was absorbing from the cold air, and even she couldn't devour this "basketball" in a short time.

"Never mind, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity." Ning Rongrong gritted her teeth and placed her hand directly on the Ten-Thousand-Year Cold Marrow.

"Crack—" A crack appeared in the basketball-sized ancient cold marrow.

A palm-sized chunk of the essence of the ancient cold marrow spurted out and landed in Ning Rongrong's hand.

Ning Rongrong directly put it into the Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda.

"Oh no, I think I've messed up big time." Ning Rongrong frowned slightly.

"Wha...what's wrong?"

"This cold marrow seems to be part of some kind of seal," Ning Rongrong pondered. How could such a thing exist in the far north?

Based on what we just observed, the massive formation is located beneath the far north, and it was originally missing a crucial part.

Logically, there should be more millennia-old cold marrow to serve as the energy for the sealing formation.

But that's it; this basketball was the last line of defense.

If this basketball-sized, eternally frozen marrow were removed, then...

"Oh ho ho ho ho—"

Throughout the valley, sounds resembling birdsong or crowing of chickens emanated. Reflected through the rock walls of the rift valley, the sounds reached the outside world and sounded like a peculiar groan.

"Hahahaha, heaven hasn't forsaken me!"

"The Ice God, born evil, wanted to refine me into an array, but it was ultimately just a mirage, a flower in a mirror, a moon in the water."

"Hahahaha!" The maniacal laughter continued to echo from the shadows.

"From this day forward, I, the ancient ice phoenix, Ji Tai Mei, will return to the world."

The secluded valley was shrouded in a strong chill, and colorful auroras appeared in the sky of the far north.

"What is that?" Qian Renxue and her entourage, who were negotiating terms with the royal family in Hagen, looked out the window at the vast aurora borealis in the sky above the far north, their faces filled with shock.
