NABC Chapter 34: Ning Fengzhi's Crazy Speculation
Chapter 34: Ning Fengzhi's Crazy Speculation
After a brief chat, the four moved to the dining table to eat and talk.
"Uncle Gu, what exactly is Xiao Xuan's situation? He's only been four months old."
Ning Fengzhi glanced at Gu Xuan, who was munching on a ground worm tendon with his head down, and then turned to look at Gu Rong.
Gu Xuan's cultivation level improved too quickly, so quickly that they felt it was abnormal and were afraid that Gu Rong had used some means to waste Gu Xuan's potential.
Gu Xuan was too lazy to argue with them. He wanted to see how much Gu Rong had improved this time, as it would affect his future attitude towards Gu Rong.
"Don't worry, it's alright. You've all forgotten about the Soul-Gathering Necklace I gave Xuan'er before. Plus, Xuan'er cultivates diligently, and in just four months, he increased his soul power by four levels, reaching level sixteen. Then, refining a 60,000-year-old soul bone to break through to level four soul power won't be a piece of cake, right?"
Gu Rong sat with an air of grandeur, his hands moving swiftly, displaying a bold and unrestrained spirit.
"But, but this isn't right either, is it?"
Even if Xuan'er broke through by absorbing a soul bone and then absorbed a soul ring, she shouldn't have her current strength, right?
Chen Xin stared straight at Gu Xuan.
With his title of Douluo's perspective, Gu Xuan's cultivation level was completely without any secrets from him.
Even if Gu Xuan absorbed both the soul bone and the soul ring, he shouldn't have level 26 soul power, right?
Did it take off like a rocket?
Or did he cheat?
Or perhaps it wasn't turned off at all?
"Um?
"Uncle Jian, is there a problem with Xuan'er's cultivation level?"
Ning Fengzhi was somewhat fooled by Gu Rong's explanation. After all, Gu Xuan's reputation as a cultivation maniac was well-known within the sect, which even improved the cultivation environment in the sect.
In addition, Gu Rong mentioned the Soul-Condensing Necklace, which made Ning Fengzhi somewhat believe in Gu Xuan's cultivation level.
Judging from Chen Xin's words, Gu Xuan's cultivation level still has problems!
"Xiao Xuan is currently level 26. Do you think that's a problem?"
After Chen Xin finished speaking, he looked at the ancient banyan tree.
"Old man, although Xiao Xuan's talent is indeed impressive, you should know how to accumulate experience before unleashing it. How can you start wasting his talent and potential at such a young age?"
Chen Xin believed that Gu Rong had used evil magic to enhance his soul power by consuming Gu Xuan's resources.
Otherwise, there is no real way to explain the abnormal surge in Gu Xuan's cultivation level.
"Level 26!"
Upon hearing this, Ning Fengzhi couldn't help but stand up, frowning as he looked at Gu Rong, wanting an answer.
Although Gu Xuan was Gu Rong's grandson, he was also a member of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and he would not allow Gu Xuan's talent to be wasted in this way.
"What's with those expressions?"
Gu Rong, with an air of superiority, glanced at the two of them arrogantly and said, "Xuan'er, show them."
Gu Rong was acting just like a husky that was pushing its luck, but Gu Xuan didn't disappoint him. The moment everyone's attention turned to him, Gu Xuan summoned his martial soul and soul ring.
The moment the two spirit rings, one yellow and one purple, appeared, Gu Xuan could easily see the shock in their eyes.
At this moment, no matter how well they cultivated their inner strength, it would all be completely destroyed.
"The second ring of the millennium!?"
The elusive thought that Chen Xin had been trying to grasp was instantly caught by him.
At the same time, he also understood why Gu Xuan's spirit ring was purple.
What had always been common sense had finally formed into a systematic body of knowledge in his mind.
The lifespan of a spirit ring varies with physical strength, while a spirit bone can greatly improve physical attributes.
Therefore, absorbing a soul bone is equivalent to strengthening the body and increasing the lifespan of absorbing soul rings.
Chen Xin felt a sudden enlightenment, and his whole being became clear.
Ning Fengzhi was no fool. In order to study the evolution method of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, Ning Fengzhi read almost all the classic texts of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
Their knowledge reserves are comparable to those of Gu Xuan.
Instantly, just like Chen Xin, he associated soul rings and soul bones together.
"A leaf can block your view, a leaf can block your vision!"
Ning Fengzhi sat down again, a smile appearing on his face.
Although Gu Xuan's method cannot be widely adopted, it can be used to cultivate core strength.
It doesn't need to be used on too many people; even if only one person is produced in a generation, it would still be an absolute guarantee for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
Imagine if they allowed a child with extraordinary talent to absorb six soul bones, then at the very least, they could allow that child to absorb soul rings that would last for at least a thousand years.
The higher the quality of the spirit ring, the more it can enhance the potential of the martial spirit, especially in the early stages.
In this way, even an ordinary martial soul can have the opportunity to transform into a stronger martial soul with the support of countless high-quality spirit rings.
Soul bones are precious, but what do they amount to compared to the chance to defy fate?
Ning Fengzhi now has a crazy idea: to have Ning Rongrong absorb six high-quality soul bones and use their power to improve her physique and mental strength.
Then, starting with the second spirit ring, Ning Rongrong was allowed to absorb spirit rings beyond her age limit.
The reason why the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda cannot evolve may be because the quality of the soul rings it absorbs is too low.
Throughout history, it seems that no Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda martial soul master has ever absorbed a soul ring beyond the initial absorption period.
In the world of spirit beasts, there is a saying that it takes 100,000 years to become an emperor.
And it seems that none of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Soul Masters have ever had more than 100,000 years of experience, even if all their Soul Rings are added together.
Even if you add up the ages of all his spirit rings, it's only 80,000 years.
If, to give an example, if the total age of the spirit rings could really be increased to 100,000 years, would the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda really evolve?
Ning Fengzhi's eyes gleamed brightly.
This is a path that no Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Soul Master has ever walked before.
He wasn't afraid of the road being difficult; what he truly feared was having no road to take.
Now that he suddenly has a direction, he wants to try it no matter what.
Ning Fengzhi immediately shared his thoughts with Chen Xin and Gu Rong.
Gu Xuan, who was gnawing on a big bone nearby, was also stunned by what he heard.
The total age of the spirit rings reaches 100,000 years?
This sounds a lot like the total years it takes for a 100,000-year-old transformed soul beast to condense its soul ring.
Although it seems a bit far-fetched, it actually does seem to be a viable path.
Support-type Soul Masters are always physically fragile. Not to mention them, even ordinary offensive-type Soul Masters are not confident that the total age of their Soul Rings will reach 100,000 years when they become Soul Saints.
One hundred thousand years is indeed a watershed moment, and it's not an exaggeration to say that it's possible.
Gu Xuan looked at Ning Fengzhi with a surprised expression and gave him a thumbs up for his ingenious idea.
To be able to deduce so much just from glancing at his second spirit ring, one must at least possess a similar level of knowledge.
We really shouldn't underestimate these so-called natives.
"It's certainly worth a try, but even our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School would have a hard time assembling a set of soul bones of decent quality."
Chen Xin nodded in agreement, feeling that Ning Fengzhi's idea this time was quite reliable.
"It's alright. As long as we're willing to spend the money, we can always gather them. Aren't there a few decent soul bones in the treasure vault? We'll trade for them back, even if it means exchanging them."
Ning Fengzhi kept thinking about which family had a suitable soul bone to exchange with.
In Douyi, you can't exchange soul bones for gold soul coins.
Aside from forceful acquisition, the only other way to obtain them is through mutual exchange.
Seeing Ning Fengzhi's flushed face, Gu Rong opened her mouth but ultimately said nothing.
Chen Xin was also pondering which family was suitable and did not notice Gu Rong's unusual behavior, but Gu Xuan saw it clearly.
