Chapter 16: The End, Whale Glue
Chapter 16: The End, Whale Glue
The ancient banyan tree had performed the awakening ceremony countless times in its youth. With a casual wave of its hand, the array was activated, and golden light spots quickly appeared, directly enveloping Ning Rongrong.
"Brother Xuan, what kind of martial soul do you think Rongrong will awaken?"
At some point, Xue Qinghe moved from the opposite side to Gu Xuan's side.
Are you bored?
Gu Xuan glanced at Xue Qinghe speechlessly.
"What could it be but the Seven-Jeweled Glazed Tile Pagoda?"
Gu Xuan replied, somewhat speechless.
Ning Rongrong's special identity makes sense; her older brother and the others might awaken other martial souls, but she will definitely only awaken the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.
That's because her mother's martial soul was also the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.
His parents and ancestors were all Seven Treasure Glazed Pagodas, and his relationship with Ning Fengzhi was even within the fifth degree of kinship.
The people on Douluo Continent are too ruthless. Almost none of the women around Ning Fengzhi have a good ending. They are either assassinated, poisoned, or ambushed during soul hunting.
Anyway, no one knows which force was behind it, but Ning Fengzhi is now a bachelor again.
Don't ask him how he knows; he heard Gu Rong and the others talk about these topics when he was little.
With two Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagodas, what other martial soul could be born from them?
There might be other secrets involved, but Gu Xuan didn't care, since he wasn't the one suffering anyway.
Actually, there's not much of a secret; it's just a continuous process of inbreeding, attempting to obtain a martial soul inheritance that surpasses the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda through the method of bloodline superposition.
If Ning Rongrong fails to awaken a martial soul surpassing the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda this time, she might end up having children like Ning Fengzhi is now.
He didn't know whether this matter was benevolent or not.
He only knew that this incident had hurt Ning Rongrong a lot, which was the main reason why Ning Fengzhi, Jian Gu, and the other two loved her so much.
"Oh, really?"
A glint flashed in Xue Qinghe's eyes before quickly fading into silence.
"It seems Rongrong has quite a bit of talent."
Xue Qinghe, looking at the golden light spots around Ning Rongrong, began to change the subject.
"It's alright, I'd guess I can get around level nine."
Even if Gu Xuan didn't say it, anyone with eyes could see that the golden light was so intense, probably only slightly weaker than when Gu Xuan was awakened.
His innate soul power must be quite high.
Upon hearing Gu Xuan's words, Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin both smiled.
The efforts of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School over so many generations have finally made it possible to realize their dreams today.
Thinking of this, Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin's expressions gradually became serious, and they both stared intently at Ning Rongrong's right hand.
As the golden light was absorbed by Ning Rongrong, a small tower slowly condensed from the void.
"One, two... seven, the Seven-Jeweled Glazed Tile Pagoda!?"
For some reason, Gu Xuan felt a sense of regret when he heard Ning Fengzhi's words.
A hint of regret flashed in Gu Rong's eyes, but it disappeared in an instant. After Ning Rongrong had played with his martial soul enough, he took out a crystal ball and handed it to her.
"Rongrong, let's test your soul power."
"Um!"
After familiarizing herself with it, Ning Rongrong put away her martial spirit and then placed her hand on the crystal ball.
The hazy blue light spread rapidly, almost filling the entire crystal ball.
"Ninth-level innate soul power!"
Upon seeing this scene, Ning Fengzhi immediately stood up, his regret vanishing instantly.
Overjoyed, he walked straight down from the head seat and picked Ning Rongrong up in his arms.
"Hahaha, Rongrong, you're a genius!"
Ning Fengzhi said with undisguised joy.
While Ning Rongrong, who had awakened level nine soul power, felt a pang of envy, she still shared the good news with Ning Fengzhi.
In Douluo Continent, those with innate full soul power are extremely rare. At level nine, one has a chance to be promoted to a title, and at level eight, it's not impossible with a little effort.
Reaching level seven innate soul power is already extremely rare, level eight is also uncommon, and level nine can be considered extremely rare.
Ning Fengzhi had always hoped that someone would break through the limitations of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. Although Ning Rongrong had not yet awakened the Eight Treasure or even Nine Treasure Pagoda, she had innate soul power at level nine.
This shows the potential to break through to the Title Douluo level. It should be noted that the highest innate soul power among the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda martial souls is only level eight. Perhaps in the future, Ning Rongrong may also create a miracle to break through the limitations of the Nine Treasures.
Looking at the entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Ning Rongrong is probably the only one most likely to break through the Seven Treasures restriction.
So why is Ning Fengzhi unhappy?
"Giggle giggle!"
Ning Rongrong didn't know what Ning Fengzhi was happy about, and thought it was because of her talent that Ning Fengzhi was happy, so she laughed along with him.
At the same time, he didn't forget to throw a mocking expression at Gu Xuan's location.
But at this moment, there was no one left at Gu Xuan's location.
Gu Xuan had already left after Ning Rongrong detected his innate soul power.
Gu Xuan appeared here simply to see if his presence would have any impact on the world.
It seems that even Ning Rongrong of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, who is closest to him, has not changed, so it is unlikely that any unknown changes will occur to the other characters in the main storyline.
"Brother Xue, that's enough for today. I need to go back to my cultivation."
Gu Xuan turned to look at Xue Qinghe, who had been following him, and cupped his hands in a gesture of refusal, his refusal quite clear.
"Well, take care, Brother Xuan. I was being presumptuous. How about I host a banquet for you another time?"
Xue Qinghe didn't expect Gu Xuan to be so tactless, but she didn't want to offend Gu Xuan, so she didn't shamelessly follow him anymore, but asked for another chance.
"I'll see when I have time; I'll go if I do."
How could he possibly have time? Wouldn't it be better to use that time to cultivate?
Do you really think everyone is a fool who doesn't improve their cultivation but instead plays tricks?
Watching Gu Xuanxue Qinghe walk away, he felt a pain in his teeth. This bone was hard to chew, but it smelled delicious. What should he do if he couldn't bear to let go?
"Xue Qinghe has already noticed me, so I can't go down the mountain anymore. It's best not to leave the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School unless there's something to do."
Or, for safety's sake, the next spirit ring could directly absorb the horse's power and create the horse talisman first.
A glint of light flashed in Gu Xuan's eyes. For his own safety, he wanted to gather the dog and the horse first.
Then they will truly be immortal.
"It would be best to use some resources that assist in cultivation, even though it might create hidden dangers for the future. But once we get the horse talisman, none of that will be a problem."
Gu Xuan was really working hard to plan for his own life.
"By the way, speaking of cultivation resources, before obtaining the Ox Talisman, we can't miss the whale glue, which is best used to improve the physical body."
He hadn't forgotten about this stuff. In this era, whale glue was mostly used as an aphrodisiac. Although it wasn't cheap, it wasn't outrageously expensive either.
If I remember correctly, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has a considerable collection of whale glue that is extremely old.
However, that stuff is so potent that it's basically only used as an exhibit; it probably wouldn't be too much trouble for him to get it.
Gu Xuan thought for a moment and turned to head straight for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's treasury.
He has the Ancient Banyan Token, which doesn't allow him to go to the core area, but those few pieces of whale glue aren't qualified to be placed in the core area either.
