Chapter 88: Mission Completed, Soul Power
"The Nine-Treasure Glazed Pagoda? It actually succeeded?" Ning Rongrong was thrilled and somewhat incredulous.
No one in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect had ever awakened the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda spirit before; she was unprecedented and set a precedent.
Ning Rongrong could already imagine how shocked her father would be when he saw her spirit.
"Thanks to Brother Tian!"
"The method of contracting beast spirits that he mentioned should be true. He wouldn't lie to me!" Ning Rongrong thought to herself.
Ning Rongrong felt extremely excited at the thought of breaking through to the Titled Douluo level and being able to form a contract with a guardian beast spirit.
However, she also knew that contracting a spirit beast was not that simple, and she still needed to work hard to cultivate.
Ning Rongrong's residence is located in the core area of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's castle complex.
At this time, three people were already waiting outside her room.
These three were Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, and Gu Rong.
Perhaps it was because the three of them were guarding Ning Rongrong's door that they attracted some direct disciples of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to watch from afar.
"Uncle Jian, can you sense what exactly happened in Rongrong's room?" Ning Fengzhi asked anxiously.
Ning Rongrong has innate level nine soul power, making her the most talented disciple of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. She is also his daughter. How could Ning Fengzhi not care?
"Sect Master, don't worry. The continuous fluctuations in soul power just now seemed to be caused by a breakthrough in soul power. Rongrong should be fine!" Sword Douluo Chen Xin said.
Actually, he didn't know what was going on either, because he had never seen a Soul Master break through several soul power levels in a row.
Gu Rong's face showed a hint of worry. He hesitated to speak, but in the end, he still voiced his guess.
"Sect Master, is it possible that Rongrong took some kind of forbidden drug that would sacrifice her future potential?"
"A few days ago she asked me to take her to the center of Sunset Forest, where there is a valley full of poisonous miasma."
"Rongrong entered that valley alone. I suspect she obtained something there, possibly a forbidden herb!"
Ning Fengzhi's heart tightened: "Uncle Bone, why didn't you say so sooner!"
He was about to open the door and rush in to check on Ning Rongrong, but Sword Douluo Chen Xin stopped him.
"Sect Master, please wait! Rongrong is not the kind of person who doesn't know what's important!" Sword Douluo Chen Xin said.
Over the past six months, Sword Douluo Chen Xin has spent much time with Ning Rongrong, sometimes seeking her advice, sometimes listening respectfully.
Sometimes, he could even gain some insights that were beneficial to him from his conversations with Ning Rongrong.
Sword Douluo Chen Xin noticed Ning Rongrong's change and believed that Ning Rongrong would not sacrifice her future for a temporary improvement.
"Besides, even if Rongrong took the banned drugs, we can't stop her if we go in now; in fact, it will only disturb her cultivation!"
After being persuaded by Sword Douluo Chen Xin, Ning Fengzhi finally gave up on breaking into Ning Rongrong's castle.
But he had no way to relieve his anxiety.
After a long while, the fluctuations of soul power in the room finally subsided, and Ning Fengzhi could no longer hold back.
"Uncle Bone, break down the door!" Ning Fengzhi said.
Gu Rong's spirit is the Bone Dragon, a type of dragon, which possesses great strength and defense.
He has a large frame, and even without using his spirit, his strength is unmatched by ordinary soul masters.
"Okay!" Gu Rong was also anxious, because he was the one who took Ning Rongrong to Sunset Forest.
If Ning Rongrong gets into trouble, he will be held responsible.
With a "bang," Ning Rongrong's room door was broken open, and the group immediately saw Ning Rongrong in the spacious room.
She held a dazzling pagoda in her hands, its gems gleaming brilliantly.
Ning Fengzhi glanced at her and immediately saw that Ning Rongrong's spirit foundation was unaffected.
"Phew~ thank goodness!" He breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment, the three of them noticed that Ning Rongrong's soul power fluctuations had actually reached level 30.
"Dad, Grandpa Sword, Grandpa Bone, what brings you here?"
Qi Tian greeted the three of them in the same tone Ning Rongrong used.
Gu Rong said, "Rongrong, you scared us to death!"
"We kept hearing fluctuations of soul power breakthrough coming from your room; we thought something had happened to you!"
Qi Tian suddenly realized that Ning Rongrong was exceptionally talented and was valued by them, so she lived very close to where they were.
So when they sensed the fluctuations of their breakthrough, they thought something unexpected had happened and rushed over to check.
"I'm fine! I just broke through in soul power!" Qi Tian explained.
But at that moment, Sword Douluo Chen Xin noticed something was wrong.
"Nine layers and nine colors, Rongrong's spirit has transformed into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda?" Sword Douluo Chen Xin asked, deeply moved.
He had previously thought that Ning Rongrong's spirit could not be awakened a second time, but now he saw the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.
Is this what talent is?
"What? The Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda?"
Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong then noticed Ning Rongrong's spirit. They approached and began to examine it.
"Rongrong, how did you do that?"
Even the usually composed Ning Fengzhi was starting to lose control of his excitement.
"Dad, I only ate a rare and precious herb!" Qi Tian said.
"Rare and precious materials? What kind of rare and precious materials are they? What do they look like?" Ning Fengzhi asked anxiously.
If such rare and precious materials can be found again, wouldn't the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect be able to produce a second or third Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda spirit?
His Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect may not have much else, but it is rich in wealth. Ning Fengzhi is willing to devote all the sect's resources to collecting such rare and precious materials.
"This rare and precious plant has demanding growing conditions. It is called the Beautiful Silk Tulip, and there is only one of it on the entire continent. I have already eaten it."
"Look at my spirit, this is the Beautiful Silk Tulip!"
The Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda spirit has its top seven layers still made of the original gemstones, while the bottom two layers are made of tulips.
Qi Tian then described the appearance of the Beautiful Silk Tulip to convince Ning Fengzhi.
Ning Fengzhi wrote down Qi Tian's description and secretly decided that he would use the power of his sect to find this rare and precious treasure.
"Congratulations, Sect Master! Rongrong has awakened the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda! Our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect may henceforth be renamed the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!"
Ning Fengzhi waved his hand and said, "Uncle Jian, Uncle Bone, Rongrong's strength is too low. It's best not to publicize this!"
Gu Rong nodded and said, "Yes, yes, yes, it's about biding our time and concealing our abilities!"
At this moment, Ning Fengzhi turned back to look at the other direct disciples who were watching outside, preparing to shut them up as well.
[Congratulations, host. Your mission to possess Ning Rongrong has ended.]
[Mission Reward: [Divine Descent] has been issued.]
"Is that all?" Qi Tian asked, somewhat surprised and reluctant.
He also wanted to use Ning Rongrong's body to absorb a spirit ring, turning the spirit power gained from the spirit ring breakthrough into a system reward.
In this way, his soul power can be further improved.
Unfortunately, the task is complete, and the stage rewards will expire after today's settlement.
"Well, this time, taking the Beautiful Silk Tulip has already allowed my soul power to break through level forty!" Qi Tian was satisfied.
