Douluo: Martial Soul Research Diary

Chapter 40 Sunset Forest
"Rongrong, why are you unhappy?"

Bone Douluo quietly walked to Ning Rongrong's side, looking at her forlorn expression, his tone tinged with heartache.

Ning Rongrong's brows were furrowed with an unresolved sorrow, tightly knotted together.

"Let Grandpa Bone guess, is it that brat Han Tao who made the little princess angry?"

A glint flashed in her eyes.

Or perhaps they thought of something and didn't answer.

"Alright then, Grandpa Bone will avenge you and lock Han Tao up for another two months!"

Ning Rongrong remained silent.

"It seems not. Could it be that your anger towards Ning Tian hasn't subsided?"

Ning Rongrong remained silent.

"Grandpa Bone, how about you arrest Ning Tian and lock him up for another two months?"

Ning Rongrong shook her head.

"Why are you causing so much trouble? Why not just lock up Han Tao and Ning Tian together for ten days or half a month?"

Sword Douluo spoke up from the side.

Ning Rongrong nodded almost imperceptibly and whispered, "Okay."

如果
If he's locked in a dark room, does that mean he can't be with Ye Lingling anymore?

At that moment, she admitted that she had been somewhat selfish.

Bone Douluo was very angry because Ning Rongrong hadn't adopted any of his many suggestions.

Sword Douluo only said one sentence, and Rongrong agreed.

So, he went to their door in a fit of rage.

"Ning Tian!"

"Ning Tian, ​​I've finally caught you. Go to the dark room and reflect on your actions for two months."

"Han Tao!"

"You, get out of here and go to the dark room for two months!"

Not a single day less!

Bone Douluo was furious. He locked Han Tao and Ning Tian in a dark room, but then he ran into the sect leader.

"Uncle Bone, come with me!"

Having learned of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, they naturally wouldn't let such an opportunity slip by.

As it happened, they encountered an enraged Bone Douluo on the road, and decided to take him to explore the Sunset Forest.

"what's up?"

"Don't bother me unless it's something important. I need to go back and comfort Rongrong."

Ning Fengzhi stopped him and said:

"It's a serious matter, and a very important one."

"Han Tao provided intelligence that there is a unique spring in the poisonous barrier area in the center of Sunset Forest, which is called the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye."

"Inside are the Qiluo Tulips, a magical herb that can help the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda evolve."

Ning Fengzhi repeated what Han Tao had said to Bone Douluo.

Upon hearing this, Bone Douluo thought for two seconds and then agreed.

After the discussion, Ning Fengzhi took out a map and located the Sunset Forest.

Early morning, sunset over the forest.

The Seven Wonders of Azure Phosphorus Flowers, like stars surrounding the moon, bloom in the center of the forest.

It is surrounded by layers upon layers of poisonous barriers, which cover vast swathes of forest.

"Presumably, the legendary Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire is located within this poisonous barrier."

"No wonder no one has discovered this place for so many years."

Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong arrived at the edge of the poisonous barrier and, upon seeing the scenery, couldn't help but sigh in amazement.

Ning Fengzhi did not directly enter to search, but instead circled around the poisonous barrier, then took out a map of "Douluo Continent - Sunset Forest" and drew a circle on it.

Tear the map apart, peel off the part outside the circle, and crush it.

This map is actually quite expensive, but the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is wealthy and doesn't mind spending that much.

"Alright, let's go in and explore."

He took out a high-grade antidote pill, swallowed it, and then said to Gu Rong.

"There's no need to be so cautious," Gu Rong replied.

I'm a titled Douluo, what's there to be afraid of if I just stroll around a grove?

Ning Fengzhi smiled faintly. As the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, he naturally needed to consider all aspects and could not act impulsively.

As a level 79 Soul Saint, the outer poison barrier posed no threat whatsoever.

However, he was unsure whether the toxins in the center of the forest would increase exponentially, and whether the antidote could reduce these risks.

Whenever Ning Fengzhi explored a nearby area, he would tear off a portion of the map and crush it with his soul power.

Step by step, bit by bit, the map of the entire fog was covered.

"Who's there!" a voice suddenly called out.

This interrupted Ning Fengzhi's exploration.

A surge of energy imbued with soul power dispersed a small portion of the dense fog, revealing a glimmer of green light within the mist.

Approaching against the wind was an elderly man with dark green hair and emerald eyes, who were watching the two of them with a sinister gaze.

"The Jade Phosphorus Snake King is possessing me!"

Dugu Bo summoned his martial spirit, and the powerful and evil Azure Phosphorous Serpent condensed from his right hand.

"Poison Douluo!" Ning Fengzhi recognized his identity.

"Bone Dragon!" "Seven-Treasured Glazed Tile Pagoda!"

Seeing this, Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong dared not underestimate the situation and quickly summoned their martial spirits, which then hovered in the air.

"Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, why did you come to Sunset Forest?"

"Do you know that this is my territory?"

Of the two titled Douluo, Dugu Bo is the weakest.
He couldn't even beat Gu Rong in a one-on-one fight, let alone with Ning Fengzhi's support.

Therefore, his tone was slightly weak.

His domineering words were nothing more than a show of strength.

Ning Fengzhi was puzzled, but his heart skipped a beat.

If the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well were occupied by a Title Douluo, the immortal herbs within would probably have been completely squandered long ago.

"The reason I came here is to find a spring where ice and fire coexist."

Poison Douluo took two steps back, his figure concealed by the poison barrier.

If a battle breaks out, you can escape at any time.

"That is my secluded place. What brings you here?"

Under the cover of poison, Dugu Bo became bolder and questioned.

"Your secluded retreat? There's no name written here, so how can it be considered your secluded retreat?"

Gu Rong took a step forward, and a powerful martial spirit aura swept out, crashing straight into Dugu Bo's body.

Ning Fengzhi reached out his hand and stopped Gu Rong from moving forward.

He spoke in the calmest possible tone:

"Poison Douluo, our goal is simply to obtain a medicinal herb!"

If he could move aside, that would be great.

In this poisonous land, killing a long-term resident Title Douluo is as difficult as ascending to heaven.

However, Dugu Bo's combat power might not be enough when facing a Title Douluo.

But the deterrent effect remains.

If he pushes you too far, he might lose all sense of propriety and target the younger generation within the sect; few forces could withstand that.

"What herbs do you want?"

Seeing Ning Fengzhi back down, Poison Douluo's mind calmed down slightly.

One medicinal herb is acceptable.

"I'm not sure, I need to see the spring."

"No!" Poison Douluo refused.

The poison within his body had become one with his martial spirit, spreading throughout his body and penetrating deep into his bones.

They were able to survive only because of the suppression of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well; otherwise, they would have already perished.

Whether I live or die is not important, but what will happen to Dugu Yan after I die?
"Poison Douluo, it seems you have never taken my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School seriously!" Before Ning Fengzhi could say anything more, Gu Rong erupted on the spot.

Fourth Soul Skill: Void Domain.

As the fourth purple soul ring lit up, soul power spread and diffused in space like a spider web. When it reached its limit, it formed a specific soul power structure.

Ning Fengzhi quickly summoned his martial soul and used a buffing soul skill before the ancient banyan soul skill was generated.

"The Seven Treasures are transformed into Glazed Glass; the Seven Treasures have names: the second is Speed! The third is Soul!"

The speed at which the Void Domain was cast suddenly increased, and the soul power surged and spread in all directions. Under the intense pressure of the aura, the surrounding Jade Phosphorous Seven Absolute Flowers burst open, and the thick poisonous gas merged into the Poison Barrier Pass.

Thus, the field was formed.

Dugu Bo fled in panic, but the domain had already enveloped him.

"Second Soul Skill, Void Spike!"

With a wave of his hand, Gu Rong's robes swayed with the airflow, and spikes imbued with spatial power appeared in the air, locking onto Poison Douluo's body.

"Admit your mistake now, tell me about the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, and I'll choose to let you go!"

Standing high in the sky, looking down indifferently at the Azure Phosphorous Serpent King, it gave him one last chance.

The soul power fluctuations of a peak Douluo pierced through layers of poisonous barriers, crossed mountains and valleys, and arrived at the nearest town.

At that moment, a man looked up.

"Are there Title Douluos fighting nearby?"

Her face was incredibly alluring, and her voice was soft and delicate, like a chrysanthemum about to bloom.
