Chapter 147 The Shock of the Seven Treasures
Chapter 148 Shippo's Shock
"Dad! Grandpa Jian!"
When Ning Rongrong saw her family return, she immediately wanted to rush up and hug them, but after taking only half a step, she remembered that she was still angry and turned back.
With her arms crossed and looking all puffed up in a huff, she was incredibly cute.
"Haha, silly girl, how can you look at Daddy from behind when he's back? Daddy brought you a gift."
Ning Fengzhi said gently, "There's no way around it, daughters are meant to be pampered." Ning Fengzhi had many wives and sons in his life, but he only had one daughter, Rongrong. Why wouldn't he pamper her?
"A gift?! Daddy, can I see my dear daddy?"
Upon hearing about the gift, Ning Rongrong immediately lost her composure and gave in.
Ning Fengzhi was indeed skilled at coaxing his daughter, and he had actually succeeded this time. He found a soul bone inside an unremarkable stone, and it was a gem-type soul bone that was extremely suitable for their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda soul masters.
Gemstone-type soul bones are extremely rare because gemstone-type soul beasts are even rarer than those with golden bloodlines. The chances of obtaining a gemstone-type soul bone are even lower.
Another way to obtain gem-type soul bones is through ores. Some mineral veins produce gem-type soul bones, but this is extremely rare, even rarer than gem-type soul beasts.
Soul Masters possess extremely strong treasure appraisal abilities. Ning Fengzhi originally intended to go to the Heaven Dou Auction House with Sword Douluo, but then discovered this stone in a general store.
The stone looked quite ugly, but it was extremely hard. The shopkeeper thought it was a relatively good piece of stone, so he kept it for auction.
Ning Fengzhi bought the stone because he sensed that it was different from others. He gave the stone to Sword Douluo to examine. Because Sword Douluo was a Super Douluo with strong spiritual power, he discovered that there was a soul bone inside the stone.
Afterwards, Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo went to one of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's properties to cut stones. In the end, they cut open a piece of left leg bone, which Ning Fengzhi found regrettable.
Gemstone-type soul bones are a good match for Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda soul masters, but the head soul bone is the most suitable. Other parts are not very useful. However, this soul bone has a high age, reaching the level of 40,000 years.
Unfortunately, Ning Fengzhi already had a left leg bone, so he thought it best to give this soul bone to his daughter, believing it could increase her speed.
Anyway, Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo will agree, and gem-type soul bones are of little use to them. If they are given them, they will secretly fawn over Rongrong.
"Rongrong, look, Daddy has prepared a soul bone for you."
Ning Fengzhi took out a pale blue-white left leg bone. This soul bone was very complete, and its soul power fluctuations were extremely strong. The moment it was taken out, Ning Rongrong felt that this soul bone had a very strong attraction to her.
"Dad, how did you get such a good soul bone? I can feel that this soul bone is very strong, and I think its skills are also very strong."
Looking at this soul bone, Ning Rongrong not only felt a strong urge to absorb it, but she also sensed that this soul bone was extraordinary.
"Hmm? Rongrong, you can sense that this soul bone is very strong?"
Ning Fengzhi raised a question. He could sense that this soul bone had great energy and was a gem-type soul bone, but he couldn't sense the soul bone's abilities.
"Yes, I sense that this soul bone is very powerful. If I absorb it, I should gain a very strong skill. Oh, by the way, let's not talk about that. Dad, let me show you the surprise I've prepared!"
Ning Rongrong suddenly remembered that she had a surprise for her father this time, so she immediately released her martial spirit.
"Nine-story, nine-colored, nine-jeweled glazed pagoda."
A nine-story glazed pagoda appeared in Ning Rongrong's hand, and Ning Fengzhi instantly felt his Seven Treasure Glazed Pagoda submit to him.
"One, two, three... eight, nine!... nine!!! The Nine-Treasured Glazed Pagoda!!"
Ning Fengzhi's years of self-cultivation and composure were shattered. He saw the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, the highest achievement of their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. He saw it with his daughter, after so many years.
Sword Bone Douluo were very surprised, not only because Ning Rongrong's martial soul had evolved into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, but also because her soul power had increased to level 38. Their little princess had only been away for a year and had increased her level by 12.
The Sword Bone Douluo exchanged a glance and nodded. The two Super Douluo appeared beside Ning Rongrong at the same time, placing a hand on Ning Rongrong's shoulder and using their soul power to probe her body.
They were afraid that Ning Rongrong might have consumed something that depleted her potential and damaged her talent, but they found that Ning Rongrong's body was fine, and she was exceptionally healthy, with a physical fitness level of at least a level 45 Soul Master.
Moreover, his soul power was abundant, showing no signs of depletion or potential loss, which finally put the two old men at ease.
"Grandpa Sword, Grandpa Bone, what are you doing? Why are you putting your hands on Rongrong's shoulders?"
Ning Rongrong looked puzzled, wondering why her two grandfathers looked so serious. "We just wanted to check on our little princess's cultivation progress, to see if she's harmed her body. So far, it seems to be going well. Rongrong, how did you improve so quickly? You've advanced twelve levels in a year?"
Sword Douluo chuckled, though he had voiced his question. Ning Fengzhi was also shocked; his daughter had reached level twelve in a year? Was that really possible?
"Is that so? This is what I told you. When Rongrong first arrived at Shrek Academy, she found that it was indeed a monster academy. In terms of strength, I was the weakest."
There is a senior student in the food department who is only two years older than me and has reached the Soul Master level in terms of soul power. Moreover, he has the strength of a Battle Soul Master.
Anyway, all the senior students are very strong, especially Director Li, who is the youngest genius soul master, Li Luochen. He came to teach us cultivation.
He gave me a ten-thousand-year-old whale gelatin, which not only increased my soul power by more than one level but also improved my physical fitness. My third soul ring had been absorbed for about two thousand years.
After that, he took me to Shrek City to cultivate. In Shrek City, I cultivated to level thirty-two. Then he gave me a golden pill called Qiluo Pill, which was made from a plant called Qiluo Tulip.
After consuming it, my soul power reached level 38, and my martial soul also evolved. Moreover, Director Li's teaching was very rigorous. He gave us a month's leave, and then we spent the rest of the time preparing for the Advanced Soul Master Competition.
He believed we could win the championship, so he started training us right after the holiday.
Ning Rongrong told them everything she knew, from the uses of whale glue to the celestial herb called Qiluo Tulip, which shocked the three of them.
"Oh, right, Dad, Director Li gave me a letter, saying it was for you."
Ning Rongrong took out a letter from her storage soul tool. This letter was indeed given to Ning Rongrong by Li Luochen, who said it was only for her father to see. Ning Rongrong had of course read it; most of it contained the contents of a transaction.
Ning Fengzhi opened the letter and read:
"Respectfully presented by the Ningzong Master."
The junior, Li Luochen, once obtained a Qiluo Tulip in a wondrous place and asked Senior Dugu to refine it into a pill. This Qiluo Tulip is a celestial herb that absorbs sunlight, moonlight, and starlight. It is elegant and luxurious, and extremely suitable for the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda.
I originally intended to raise Rongrong's soul power level and strengthen her foundation, but I didn't expect that the noble lady could evolve her martial soul. After that, I had the idea of making a deal with Sect Master Ning.
Let me be clear: I still have one Qiluo Pill. Sect Leader Ning has probably been stuck at level 79 for a long time, so you should be willing to pay a high price to trade for the pill.
However, let me make this clear first: although this is a transaction, it won't make things difficult for your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. It's just a matter of mutual benefit. I need soul bones, specifically ten-thousand-year-level soul bones. We can discuss the exact number in person.
There's one more thing. I know that the direct disciples of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School lack offensive methods. I've been tinkering with some things lately that might impress Sect Master Ning.
This is an offensive soul tool, and Rongrong happens to have one. You can ask Rongrong about it; she'll demonstrate it for you. As I said before, I'd like to make a deal with Sect Master Ning—a mutually beneficial exchange. Sect Master Ning probably wouldn't want to kill someone to steal it, would he?
Respectfully presented by Li Luochen, Shrek Academy.
Ning Fengzhi looked at the letter with a conflicted expression. When he saw that the Qiluo Pill was still there, he breathed a sigh of relief. His first thought was to kill and steal the treasure.
But is Li Luochen so easy to kill? The Poison Douluo behind him has already reached level 97, stronger than the Sword Douluo, and he alone can destroy the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
Ning Fengzhi immediately rejected the idea, thinking it wasn't worth it. However, Li Luochen wanted to trade soul bones, and even more so, ten-thousand-year soul bones, which made Ning Fengzhi very reluctant to part with them. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School had many soul bones.
Most of them are from a thousand years ago, and some are from ten thousand years ago. Most of them were bought at auctions. There's no way around it; the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is not short of money. The soul bones in the Heaven Dou Auction House and other major auction houses are basically all acquired by the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
However, the age of the soul bones is not very high, with most being only 10,000 to 20,000 years, some being 30,000 years, and those over 50,000 years are found on Sword Bone Douluo and him. There is only one top-grade soul bone in the sect.
He did have some soul bones that were less than 30,000 years old, but it pained him to trade them away. These were the accumulated wealth of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School since its founding, and he couldn't bear to part with them.
However, Li Luochen had a way to solve the safety problem of his direct disciples. He had a soul tool that could give his direct disciples offensive capabilities, which made his eyes light up. Ning Fengzhi looked at his daughter and realized that she was hiding things with him.
"Rongrong, let us see the protective soul tool that Director Li gave you. What kind of amazing thing is it?"
Ning Fengzhi said gently.
"Okay, Dad, that was supposed to be the second thing. Let's go outside and try it out."
Ning Rongrong said with a smile, and then a small black gadget suddenly appeared in her hand. The soul guide pistol was one of the things that Li Luochen sold to Ning Rongrong.
To be precise, it's a soul-guided flintlock gun with a range of about several tens of meters. Its power is quite good; it shouldn't be a problem to kill a Soul Master. This is the good stuff that Li Luochen wanted Ning Fengzhi to see.
