Douluo Continent: Dragon's Journey Across the World

Chapter 120 The Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda

Yang Ping pretended to be thinking carefully, took a sip of tea, and spoke after a long time.

"With Sect Master Ning's knowledge, he should understand that the higher the level of a martial soul, the more difficult it is to break through. On the contrary, some relatively low-level or inferior martial souls can undergo transformation through treasures such as soul rings or soul bones."

"Ultimately, this probably has to do with the issue of bloodline inheritance. You must have heard of the six-winged angel spirit inherited by the Spirit Hall. Spirit City is not only home to the Qian family angel lineage, but also to ordinary angel spirits. However, they are relatively low-end, and are only two-winged angels, and can never truly evolve in their lifetime."

"On the contrary, the direct descendants of the Qian family can evolve their martial souls from the initial two-winged angels to six-winged angels when they become Soul Saints. In fact, I think this is ultimately a matter of bloodline inheritance."

Ning Fengzhi nodded: "I also agree with this. Ultimately, the inheritance of martial spirits is all about bloodline inheritance, or rather, the strength of the bloodline."

Yang Pinggang shook his head: "That's precisely why the higher the level of a martial soul, the harder it is to evolve, especially weapon martial souls, which are harder to evolve than beast martial souls because beast martial souls are more compatible with the user's body."

"With Sect Leader Ning's insight, he should know that all our martial spirits are alive and have their own thoughts. If we want martial spirits to truly change, their thoughts must also change."

Ning Fengzhi pondered for a while, then suddenly asked with some surprise, "According to young friend Yang, you want to strengthen the bloodline so that the martial soul can truly evolve?"

Yang Ping'an nodded: "Normally speaking, I've thought of two methods that might allow the martial soul to evolve, but I'm afraid they would be extremely difficult."

Ning Fengzhi became a little excited at this moment: "Young friend Yang, please speak frankly. My Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has some financial resources and can definitely find a way to make it happen."

After saying this, Ning Fengzhi took out a Gold Soul Coin card and placed it on the table, which showed a full one million gold coins.

Ning Fengzhi then spoke again: "This is just a small token of my appreciation. Please share your insightful opinion, young friend Yang. I will reward you handsomely afterwards."

Yang Ping'an did not accept the gold soul coin card. He thought for a moment before speaking: "Sect Master Ning, I have read quite a few books, especially many about herbs. I remember that some books record that certain spiritual herbs with good medicinal effects may be able to change one's bloodline."

"For example, some ten-thousand-year-old spiritual herbs, such as ten-thousand-year-old ginseng kings and ten-thousand-year-old lingzhi mushrooms. In addition, I once found some special spiritual herbs in the books of the Beast Academy. Their effects are so miraculous that they are almost heaven-defying. Two of them are called Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum and Eight-Petaled Immortal Orchid. If Sect Master Ning can find these kinds of rare herbs, it should be able to evolve his martial soul."

The eyes of everyone around widened immediately. These people were all well-informed, and they were quite surprised to hear that the herbs were of the ten-thousand-year level, not to mention the Heavenly Chrysanthemum and the Eight-Petaled Immortal Orchid.

Ning Fengzhi thought for a while before slowly speaking: "Young friend Yang may not know this, but ten-thousand-year-old spiritual herbs are extremely rare. Basically, no ten-thousand-year-old spiritual herbs have been seen on the market for hundreds of years. As for the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum and the Eight-Petaled Immortal Orchid that you mentioned, no one knows if they really exist."

Yang Ping'an shook his head: "I don't know much about other things in the past, but the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum should exist. As we all know, our Soul Masters' Martial Souls are derived from some kind of creature. As far as I know, the Chrysanthemum Douluo senior on our competition committee this time has the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum as his Martial Soul."

"However, one should not be too young to take this type of elixir, and it is best to be a Soul King before that age. Otherwise, either the body will not be able to withstand it, or the body will already be fully formed, limiting the improvement."

Everyone swallowed hard upon hearing this. At this moment, Long Gong suddenly spoke up: "No wonder this Chrysanthemum Pass could cultivate to the level of a Title Douluo. His martial soul is not simple at all; it is actually a ten-thousand-year-old spiritual herb."

Ning Fengzhi asked with some curiosity, "Young friend Yang, how did you learn of such a secret matter?"

Yang Ping'an couldn't help but smile: "When I was at the Beast Academy, I also specifically studied various herbs and basically became familiar with all the herbal knowledge in the academy. I found this knowledge in the academy's library."

Upon hearing this, Long Gong blushed slightly and felt embarrassed, never expecting that such knowledge would be in his own library.

Ning Fengzhi hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Young friend Yang, ten-thousand-year-old spiritual herbs are extremely difficult to find. Is there any other method?"

Yang Ping'an hesitated for a moment before speaking: "My second method may seem a bit complicated. As you should know, when we absorb a soul ring, the energy in our bloodline is also increased to a certain extent."

"Especially when I absorb a spirit ring that is higher level than me, I always feel a surge of excitement, as if something has been activated. So my spirit will change after each spirit ring absorption."

"If all the spirit rings of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda were to absorb spirit rings of the same bloodline, it might cause some kind of mutation in the bloodline."

Ning Fengzhi could only manage a wry smile upon hearing this: "Young friend Yang, you may not know this, but each cycle of absorption by our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda must be of different attributes, mainly based on its function."

At this point, Ning Fengzhi suddenly showed an extremely surprised expression, as if he had thought of some possibility.

Yang Ping'an nodded: "I think with Sect Master Ning's insight, you should understand what I mean. However, this method is quite difficult and takes a very long time."

Ning Fengzhi instantly fell into deep thought, and even a hint of joy appeared on his face, as if he could really witness success.

After a while, Sword Douluo, seeing Ning Fengzhi's state, suddenly spoke up: "Fengzhi, what's the meaning behind you and Yang Ping'an playing these cryptic games?"

Ning Fengzhi chuckled slightly at this point: "Uncle Jian, the method Yang Ping'an mentioned is indeed feasible, and I think the probability of it being possible is very high."

"Our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda does need to absorb seven different types of spirit rings that enhance its amplification properties, but if we absorb all of them, we can truly enhance our bloodline attributes and ultimately achieve the effect of evolution."

The crowd was immediately shocked. After hearing Ning Fengzhi's explanation, it was clear that if all seven soul rings were of dragon bloodline, they could indeed enhance the strength of the bloodline. Moreover, the dragon race was diverse, and could satisfy the amplification of seven different attributes.

Yang Ping'an simply sipped his tea and observed everything calmly, as if nothing concerned him.

The two methods I mentioned seem feasible, but their difficulty is beyond everyone's imagination. Finding dragon-attribute soul rings with the right age is basically impossible. I wandered around the Star Dou Great Forest for so long and hardly ever saw any dragon-attribute soul beasts.
