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

Chapter 586 First Show After Emerging from Seclusion

"M-Master." Tokisaki Kurumi was at a loss for words. Being caught talking badly about someone behind their back was incredibly embarrassing.

"When did you arrive? Why didn't you message me?" Tokisaki Kurumi looked up at Ning Rongrong with a stiff expression.

"If I had told you beforehand, would I still be talking about me behind my back?" Ning Rongrong rolled her eyes. "I don't want to end up like that sect leader, whose strange fetishes are known to everyone."

"That's all your own fault. You're always acting like a loving father and a filial daughter. It's hard for anyone not to know," Kurumi Tokisaki retorted.

"What did you say? I didn't hear you clearly. Please think it over and say it again." Ning Rongrong made a gesture of picking her ear, indicating that she had a bit of "tinnitus".

"N-nothing."

"That makes sense. How could the traditional love between father and daughter possibly exist in the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School?"

Kurumi Tokisaki: "..."

Look at what you're saying.

You just came out of seclusion, are you still not clear-headed?

Of course, Tokisaki Kurumi wouldn't dare say such things aloud; who knows what this cunning pink-haired girl is planning to do to her again.

"Master, how long have you been here?"

Forcefully steer the conversation back on track, Kurumi Tokisaki acts as if nothing happened.

"There was a moment when my strength broke through, which is normal because you didn't notice."

"However, I never expected that there really was an Ice God Palace inside," Ning Rongrong said with a touch of emotion.

In the original work, the legend of the Ice God existed in "Douluo Continent II: The Peerless Tang Sect", but it seems that the whereabouts of the Ice God's remains were not discussed in the subsequent Douluo series.

After *Douluo Continent II: The Peerless Tang Sect*, descriptions of even the far north are scarce. Perhaps it's because it's unrelated to the protagonist...

"By the way, what else did you find down there?" Ning Rongrong pressed.

Upon arriving at the rift in the Snow Valley, they saw three people standing like wooden stakes.

They also heard the three people's account after they returned, but they only heard about the Ice God's ruins; the rest required further inquiry.

After speaking, Ning Rongrong turned her gaze to the two people standing next to Tokisaki Kurumi and said:

"Long time no see, Hyotei and Yukitei."

Hyotei simply nodded, not wanting to speak after arguing with Kurumi Tokisaki. Yuki-tei, however, sized up Ning Rongrong for a moment and smiled, "Hmm, your aura is completely different from when I last saw you."

Ethereal and light, completely unlike ordinary Soul Masters.

Moreover, unlike the slightly awe-inspiring demeanor she had shown before, Ning Rongrong was now more reserved.

As a woman of ice and snow close to nature, she is quite sensitive to aura and temperament, and can clearly detect Ning Rongrong's differences.

"Yes, it's normal for my temperament to change after making some breakthroughs." Ning Rongrong didn't explain much about her situation.

Kurumi Tokisaki then took over the conversation, recounting to Ning Rongrong what had just happened at the seal.

After she finished speaking, Ning Rongrong fell into a long silence.

The dragon roars and the phoenix sings.

A mythical beast emerges from its cage, a cicada sheds its shell?

The Ice God Palace seems to be suppressing some kind of passage?

Ning Rongrong stroked her chin thoughtfully.

Excluding factors outside the Douluo Continent world, what about Dragon Valley...?

No way!

Black Phoenix escaped, leaving behind her body and part of her soul consciousness to use in a scheme to switch the prince with another child in the Ice Palace.

There's also the passage suppressed by the Ice God Palace, if we only consider Douluo Continent and not other worlds.

Abyss passage?

If the Demon Emperor has appeared, it's not impossible that the Abyss Passage exists.

I remember that the ruler inside the abyss passage was apparently a first-level god.

Secondly, there is the Crimson Mother, the mother of the ruler of the Abyss Plane. Her strength is roughly that of a first-level god, and she seems to have broken through to the God King realm in "Ultimate Douluo".

So, the Ice God perished because he suppressed the passage?

Ning Rongrong remained silent, indicating her doubt.

If it truly involves another dimension, then it's not something we can touch upon right now.

Who knows if the Dark Forest theory will actually happen!

To have an equal dialogue, you need the strength to do so.

Whether it's the realm of gods or that abyss plane, without strength, it's all just empty talk.

"Master, master."

"Ning Rongrong, Ning Rongrong!!!"

"I can hear you, don't shout so loudly." Ning Rongrong rolled her eyes at Tokisaki Kurumi. "If that's a sealed passage, try not to touch it!"

"Hmph, do you also want to obtain the Ice God's inheritance?" the Ice Emperor said angrily.

"No, we said we wouldn't, and we mean it." Ning Rongrong shook her head. "When it comes to keeping our word, our Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School still has some integrity."

"Snow Empress, I once asked you how the Ice God fell, and you told me it happened in the far north, right?"

"That's right."

Xue Di nodded, somewhat confused by Ning Rongrong's words.

"Have you ever considered that you perished because of the sealing?"

"This..." Xue Di remained silent.

Ultimately, this carries inherited memories; the Ice God did indeed perish in the far north, but the specific reasons for his fall remain unclear.

"To put it another way, if that black ice phoenix came from that passage, then could there be another, even stronger being?"

"Of course, this is just my speculation."

Since the matter of the Crimson Mother and the Abyss Saint Lord was not confirmed, Ning Rongrong did not mention it to the Snow Empress, the Ice Empress, or even Tokisaki Kurumi.

"So what do you mean?" Xue Di frowned.

"Let's keep it for now!" Ning Rongrong said. "We'll discuss it again after we find the Black Ice Phoenix and fully understand the situation."

"Do you know the whereabouts of the ancient Black Phoenix?" Xue Di asked, puzzled.

"If the location is correct, I think I roughly know it, but I don't know how to get in."

"Let's go inside the seal and take a look. If that ancient black phoenix can break through the seal and leave, there should still be traces left in the space. I also want to see the current state of the ancient black phoenix."

"Let's go, and don't resist."

Ning Rongrong waved her hand, and specks of light covered everyone.

In the blink of an eye, the surrounding scenery changed.

Ning Rongrong had already brought the three of them back into the seal.

"You...you just walked right in like that?" Hyotei's face showed surprise.

"Yes, my strength has improved, and entering the seal is also possible." Ning Rongrong nodded.

"That's not what I meant. There's a level three god inside, aren't you afraid we'll all be wiped out?!"

As Ning Rongrong led everyone deeper into the depths, a look of horror appeared on Bingdi's face.

That's a level three god!

Even a Limit Douluo can run away, but how can a Level 3 God run away?

"Heh heh, the fearless Hyotei is actually scared?" Tokisaki Kurumi spoke up at the right moment. "I thought you little scorpion could face danger without fear, but it turns out you're just a bully who picks on the weak and fears the strong."

"Domestic cat? Don't talk nonsense. I'm brave and resourceful; I don't want to die." After saying this, Hyotei ignored Tokisaki Kurumi and turned to look at Yukitei beside her.

"Snow Emperor..."

"Trust Ning Rongrong! We can't get out anyway."

Upon hearing Xue Di's words, Bing Di's expression froze.

They are indeed trapped inside the seal and cannot get out, at least she and Xue Di cannot get out.

That's the logic, that's correct.

But, but!

Suddenly, a chilling pressure swept over them, getting closer and closer to the sealed ancient black phoenix.

"Sure enough, spacetime here has become disordered to a certain extent."

Ning Rongrong's eyelids twitched slightly as she stepped out of the protective barrier.

The chaotic aura still carried the oppressive feeling of a dragon and had not completely dissipated, meaning that the ancient black phoenix had not been gone for long.

Ning Rongrong opened up her senses.

Reaching the second ultimate realm – the pinnacle of the heart.

Her perception of the subtle details around her became more acute, allowing her to dissect even the most chaotic atmosphere and extract useful information.

Ning Rongrong extended her slender finger and gently touched it.

The light green, rippled soul power condensed into a line and fell into the palm of his hand.

"Found it. It seems my guess was right."

"Master, be careful!"

Suddenly, an extremely bright light appeared ahead.

The purplish-black energy permeated the space, growing larger and larger in Ning Rongrong's pupils.
