With Tian Qihua, the Titled Douluo, releasing the soul pressure, the journey through the frozen forest was very safe, and there were no blind soul beasts attacking them.
Along the way, Ning Tianchen was always recording the route map with a pencil.
Seeing this, Tian Qihua smiled and said, "My friend, don't take my rebuttal to you that day to heart. This map of the frozen forest is my apology."
"This is too expensive." Ning Tianchen quickly refused.
Just because of a disagreement, he offered such a precious gift of apology. Who would dare to speak in the future?
Tian Guozhen explained: "The frozen forest is not very large. Since humans have tried to develop the Arctic ice sheet, the conditions of this forest have long been understood. Therefore, this detailed forest map is not valuable."
"However, the topographic map of the Arctic Icefield is a secret of the Snow Mountain Sect, so we cannot give it to anyone. But you can draw a route map along the way, and we will not stop you."
"Okay, thank you, Third Elder." Ning Tianchen took the map and quickly put it into the soul guide.
Leaving the forest, there is a vast expanse of white ice in the distance.
From the perspective of the ice sheet, the farthest end seemed to be connected to the sky and earth. From a distance, it seemed as if there was no end.
Before entering the ice field, Ning Rongrong suddenly stopped and asked seriously, "Why did you bring us to the Arctic Ice Field? Even if it was to make amends, you could just make concessions in some aspects when the two major sects started to cooperate. Why did you bring us here?"
The Arctic ice field is a true lawless place. If you kill someone here, not only will the outside world not know about it, but even hundreds of years later, there is no guarantee that anyone will find the body.
There is a Titled Douluo in the Snow Mountain Sect's exploration team this time, so Ning Rongrong has no choice but to be vigilant.
Ning Tianchen gradually realized the seriousness of the problem and that the Snow Mountain Sect had impure motives.
He was extremely sensitive to murderous intent, but he had never sensed any murderous intent from the other party, which made him ignore this problem.
If there is a treasure on the Arctic ice field, which would be difficult for Tian Guozhen and others to move alone, the Snow Mountain Sect could simply send more people, and there would be no need to call them.
After all, no one would think that there are too many natural treasures, and only fools would take the initiative to share them with others.
Tian Guozhen smiled and said, "You are quite alert. It seems that it is time to tell you something."
"Our trip is not entirely for exploring the ice field or training here. Our main purpose is to explore the 18th ancient ruins."
The relics are numbered in the order of their discovery.
Ancient ruins No. 18 is the eighteenth ancient ruins they discovered.
There are many Titled Douluo-level warriors on the continent. Before their lives come to an end, they will go to unknown places to explore.
Once you find the opportunity, you can break through again and your lifespan can be extended.
The mystery of the Arctic ice field has long been ingrained in everyone's hearts, so most people will choose to explore it before the strong die.
But the reality is cruel. There are very few strong people who can find opportunities and break through in the Arctic ice field, and most of them die in it.
Some strong people will build a temporary residence for themselves before their lives come to an end, and wait quietly for death to come in it.
"Tens of thousands of years ago, the soul guide technology on the Douluo Continent had not yet been lost, and the continent used soul guide technology very maturely. Before these strong men died, they would seal their last residence with soul guides and wait for the arrival of the destined person."
Tian Qihua explained: "Generally speaking, these ancient ruins will contain the life-long collection of a Titled Douluo, which is of great help to low-level spirit masters. But this is not absolute. In some ancient ruins that are too old, most of the items in them have become ineffective or turned to ashes. Therefore, before opening the ruins, no one knows what is inside."
"As for our target of this trip, the 18th ancient ruins, the sect elders have explored it many times and found that it was a ruin built about 50,000 years ago. Most of the items in the ruins should not be invalid and have a high exploration value."
"However, this relic is sealed by a powerful soul guide. Only those under the age of thirty and with soul power above level fifty are qualified to enter it."
"We don't know how many dangers there are in the ruins, but in the sect, only Guo Zhen and the other three are capable and qualified to explore the No. 18 ancient ruins. At the sect meeting yesterday, I proposed to let you enter in order to ensure the success of this exploration."
Tian Guozhen said generously, "We in the Snow Mountain Sect don't need many items. The remaining treasures found in the ruins will all belong to you."
Originally, the Snow Mountain Sect had no plans to explore the ancient ruins No. 18, but planned to wait for Tian Ruyang's soul power to break through again and then forcibly open the ruins.
But after so many years, Tian Ruyang still shows no signs of a breakthrough.
It was the arrival of Ning Tianchen and Ning Rongrong that allowed them to restart their exploration of the ancient ruins No. 18.
With a clear goal in mind, Ning Tianchen and Ning Rongrong immediately felt relieved.
"We will follow your instructions on what to do." Ning Tianchen said, "However, we have never explored ancient ruins and have no experience, so we may not be able to do it well."
Tian Chao smiled and said, "Don't worry, with us here, we won't encounter any major problems. You two friends just need to assist us."
The location of the 18th ancient ruins required them to go deep into the Arctic ice field, which was nearly a month's journey away.
But the ensuing snowstorms will greatly slow down their progress, and it will take at least a month and a half to arrive.
There is a reason for choosing to enter the Arctic ice field in winter.
The soul guide that maintains the ruins only allows people to enter in winter. In summer, the only option is to force your way in.
……
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, more than a month has passed.
The letter written by Ning Rongrong was sent to the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect by a courier when it arrived at the snowy town.
After such a long time, the letter finally arrived at the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect.
When Ning Fengzhi saw the signature on the envelope, he knew that this was the letter sent back by Ning Rongrong.
After opening the envelope and seeing the contents of the letter, he suddenly became upset.
"Someone, go to Qibao College and invite Dean Ke to come."
Then, Ning Fengzhi immediately summoned Sword Bone Douluo to go to the meeting hall for discussion.
On the other side, Ke Jie received his call and rushed back to the sect from Qibao Academy.
Yesterday, he just completed the admission procedures for Hong Xinyue, and the cooperation with the Hong family is about to get on track.
Ning Fengzhi rushed him back to the sect, which made him feel that there might be changes in the cooperation plan.
In the meeting hall.
Ning Fengzhi and the other two were discussing the contents of the letter enthusiastically.
Seeing Ke Jie coming, Ning Fengzhi asked, "Uncle Ke, how is the academic exchange competition going?"
Ke Jie replied: "Everything is going well at the moment. I have contacted many old friends and they have all decided to come to the conference. I have decided to hold the academic exchange conference before the next Soul Master Competition."
"By then, a large number of soul masters will flock to Tiandou City, which will greatly enhance the influence of the conference."
Ning Fengzhi nodded and handed him Ning Rongrong's letter.
After checking, Ke Jie was surprised and said, "The Snow Mountain Sect is actually planning to come out and establish cooperation with the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect?"
How did Ning Tianchen and Ning Rongrong make a secluded sect give up the idea of seclusion?
Or did the Snow Mountain Sect already have plans to come out, and this visit just happened to coincide with it?
Ning Fengzhi handed him another page of the letter.
After reading it, Ke Jie suddenly understood.
In the letter, Ning Rongrong explained in detail every word Ning Tianchen said, as well as the reactions of everyone in the Snow Mountain Sect.
It can be said that Ning Tianchen single-handedly facilitated this cooperation and the birth of the Snow Mountain Sect.
"Uncle Ke, have you heard of Tianchen's theory?" Ning Fengzhi asked.
Ke Jie thought for a moment and said, "I study the theory of soul masters. I don't know much about matters related to people's livelihood and miscellaneous subjects. However, the unwritten rule of not marrying close relatives has been in existence on the mainland for a long time, but no one understands the specific reason."
Gu Rong asked, "Tian Chen used the example of martial soul inheritance. Lao Ke, have you done any research?"
Regarding the martial spirit theory, Ke Jie confidently replied: "I have not studied this aspect deliberately, but from the data I have, his theory is correct. The offspring of close relatives marrying have a high probability of causing malignant mutations in their martial spirits."
"Take the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family as an example. Yu Yuanzhen's wife has a certain blood relationship with him, and the result is that she gave birth to several sons. Although the eldest son Yu Xiaotian awakened the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex martial spirit, his innate soul power is only level four, and Yu Xiaogang's martial spirit has even undergone a malignant mutation." "In addition, Yu Luomian's illegitimate daughter Liu Erlong, because she is not a close relative, her fire dragon martial spirit can be said to have inherited the advantages of both parents."
Ke Jie's arguments were well-reasoned and everyone had to believe in the authenticity of the theory proposed by Ning Tianchen.
Chen Xin said calmly: "So, it is precisely because of the intermarriage within the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family that the sect's inheritance has gradually withered?"
Ke Jie thought for a moment and gave an affirmative answer, "This theory will require several generations of observation to be thoroughly verified. But judging from the current examples, there is no doubt that this theory must be correct."
"Yu Tianxin and Yu Tianheng's parents did not marry close relatives, which is why they gave birth to this pair of blue lightning twins. But according to the records of the sect, their talents are at most below average among the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family during its heyday."
The Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex spirit is known as the number one beast spirit in the world, and its status has never been shaken, which is enough to prove the power of their ancestors.
However, in the past hundred years, the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family began to decline inexplicably. Neither their internal nor external forces have been able to discover the real reason, and they only thought it was the natural law that everything that rises must fall.
Now, with Ning Tianchen's theory, it can be said that the rise and fall of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family has been completely explained.
The Seven Treasures Glazed Sect was originally a sect of auxiliary soul masters. In order to increase the strength of the sect, almost all of the sect's disciples intermarried with outsiders, which is why this situation did not occur.
It is also because of this that Ning Fengzhi and others can still sit here and discuss calmly.
"It seems that because of the auxiliary attribute of the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda martial spirit, we have avoided this shortcoming invisibly." Ning Fengzhi felt fortunate.
Unfortunately, the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda could not break through to Soul Douluo due to the limitation of its martial spirit. Otherwise, he even felt that the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda should have had a Titled Douluo-level auxiliary soul master long ago.
Ke Jie asked, "Sect Master, should we inform the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family about this? If we can solve the hidden danger of their sect inheritance, it will be easier for the two major sects to reach an agreement on being of the same blood."
Gu Rong sneered, "What a pity! If they hadn't attacked Tianchen and Rongrong, we would have told them the truth about this important discovery. But since they did that, the possibility of cooperation between the two major sects has been completely lost. As for their life or death, what does it have to do with us? Without the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family, the Snow Mountain Sect just took their place as one of the top three sects."
Although Ning Fengzhi did not express his opinion, he agreed with Gu Rong's proposal in his heart.
The Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family is unwilling to unite with the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, and there is no need for them to put their faces on the cold butt.
What's more, the Snow Mountain Sect is about to start cooperation with them. A powerful sect with four Titled Douluo is more worthy of being won over than the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family.
After a moment of silence, Ning Fengzhi immediately made arrangements: "Uncle Ke, you continue to prepare for the academic exchange conference and make sure it is done well. During this period, Uncle Gu, you have to work harder and keep track of the movements of the Snow Mountain Sect's envoys. Once they arrive near Tiandou City, they must be welcomed into the sect as soon as possible."
Chen Xin needs to be in seclusion for some time, so the task of receiving guests has to fall on Gu Rong.
……
On the Arctic ice field.
Since the beginning of winter, storms on the ice sheet have almost never stopped.
As we go deeper, the daytime becomes shorter and shorter, sometimes even shorter, with sunrise lasting less than an hour each day.
According to Tian Chao, when you go deeper into the ice field, there will be a phenomenon of eternal night, that is, the sun will not rise at all.
After a long journey, Tian Qihua and everyone stopped at the top of an iceberg.
He pointed to the sunken snow in front of him and laughed, "There is an underground cave over there, and the No. 18 ancient ruins are inside it."
Ning Rongrong was exhausted after a long journey. She said weakly, "How about taking a break? I don't have the strength anymore."
Tian Chao nodded and said, "It's indeed a bit far. Let's go down to the leeward slope and rest for a while."
Ning Tianchen couldn't help but interrupt: "It's such a steep slope, why don't you row down?"
He had skied several times in his previous life. The slope of the snowy mountain in front of him was simply an ideal place for skiing enthusiasts.
Tian Guozhen shook his head and explained, "The slope is too long. It's easy to get your clothes wet when you slide down, and it's hard to control your speed. If you can't control it well in the middle, you will be wrapped up like a snowball, and you won't be able to stop at that time."
Ning Tianchen said speechlessly: "Don't you have skis? How much time will it take to walk down?"
"What are snowboards?"
Tian Guozhen and others said in confusion.
Ning Tianchen frowned.
He didn't expect that no one from the Snow Mountain Sect, which had been active on the ice field for a long time, had thought of skis?
He asked Tian Qihua for some sturdy wood, laid it flat and fixed it firmly together, and a simple ski board that looked like a raft was completed.
Ning Tianchen also considered making a double-board sled, after all, it is easier to make.
But for untrained people, it is easy to fall when skiing on a double board, while skiing on a single board is relatively easier to operate.
"Only three?" Tian Guozhen asked in confusion, "Two people squeezed into one, isn't this board too short? We don't lack such a small amount of dry firewood, so it won't matter if we make a few more."
Ning Tianchen glanced at him and smiled faintly: "Why would someone who can fly need to ski?"
As he spoke, the Seven Killing Swords appeared under his feet. He and Ning Rongrong stood on it at the same time and rushed towards the bottom of the snow mountain.
Flying close to the ground with the Seven Killing Sword and rushing down the hillside is so thrilling.
Tian Qihua smiled and said, "I can fly too. You three should not fall behind."
As he spoke, he quickly caught up with Ning Tianchen.
Tian Guozhen and the other two looked at each other.
Using skis, they can avoid rolling down the mountain. Even though the three of them were somewhat reluctant, in order to increase their speed, they all sat on the skis and slid down the slope.
……
Soon after, everyone gathered at the entrance of the underground cave.
It is worth mentioning that Tian Guocheng did not brake the skis in time. When he was about to hit the mountain, he started to brake suddenly.
However, the strength of the simple skis was limited and they fell apart when he braked, and he crashed directly into a rock nearby.
Fortunately, he was physically strong enough not to get injured, but he was inevitably laughed at by everyone.
The entrance to the cave is located on the leeward side. Once you enter it, you will noticeably feel a lot warmer.
Tian Qihua pointed to the depths of the cave and said, "The ruins of No. 18 are at the deepest part of this cave. Everyone, use torches to illuminate the cave and be careful not to step on empty space."
"There is a complex cave system underground. If you are not careful, you will fall into it. If you are stuck in a narrow cave, no one can rescue you."
Ning Tianchen suggested: "Everyone tie ropes around their bodies and stand in a row. If someone falls into the cave, they can be pulled up with the help of the ropes to avoid falling into a deeper cave."
Everyone agreed with his idea.
Ning Tianchen has the ability to fly and walks in front with a torch in his hand.
After that, everyone stood about ten meters apart. Tian Qihua walked at the end of the team, ready to help others at any time.
"Be careful. Such natural caves are very suitable for soul beasts to hibernate. It is possible that there are soul beasts inside." Tian Chao, who was standing behind Ning Tianchen, reminded.
Ning Tianchen smiled and responded, "This cave is not big. Soul beasts over ten thousand years old need to crawl to enter. Except for snake soul beasts, other types of soul beasts don't like to drill into small and cramped caves. And with the temperature of the Arctic ice field, snake soul beasts can't survive here at all, so don't worry."
Soul beasts under ten thousand years old pose no threat to him.
The ten thousand year old soul beasts possess a certain level of intelligence and know that the caves may become the territory of other soul beasts. Why do they insist on squeezing in?
If the body gets stuck, won’t it become food for other soul beasts?
Tian Chao was shocked. "What you said makes sense. Who did you learn these theories from?"
Ning Tianchen responded: "The theories of soul masters on the mainland are constantly updated. If you don't have contact with the outside world, how can you know the latest theories of soul masters?"
Tian Qihua in the back smiled and said, "Indeed. Learning makes people progress. After the sect is born, we will need a long period of systematic learning."
Although the Beast Academy was funded by them, disciples of the Snow Mountain Sect rarely go there to study.
When the Soul Master Competition comes, they will send some disciples to join the academy team.
Without regular study, how can one acquire a solid theoretical foundation just by staying in the team for a few days!
