Soul Contract and the Eight Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda
The air is very fresh, exuding a strong sense of Life, and the energy concentration is higher than outside. Elements are also easier to perceive here. Otherwise, it is no different from a normal forest.
Seeing him looking around, Gu Yue didn't care; to her, it was just a place to stay.
Where's the promised "Gold of Life"? Give me a piece.
Han Li didn't find anything, but he wasn't exactly disappointed. He just wanted to see, and it didn't matter if he didn't find anything.
This thing is no longer of much use to him, and he doesn't need it to nourish his body and Spiritual Power.
Looking at Gu Yue walking ahead, Han Li didn't ask any questions. Even if there were any, they would probably have already been absorbed by this big spender.
"Just ahead is a Three-Headed Red Demon Hound, about 90,000 years old. Due to too many battles in its early years, its Life was severely depleted, and even Bi Ji could not maintain it indefinitely, so it also agreed."
Gu Yue slowed her pace slightly, her expression remaining unchanged, as she described to Han Li the information she had obtained from Di Tian and the others.
The impending death of Soul Beast under normal circumstances would not shake her resolve.
"Um."
Han Li nodded. "A member of the Scarlet King's clan?"
His left wristband lit up, and Ning Fengzhi was released.
"Your Holy Son Your Highness, this is..."
As soon as Ning Fengzhi was released, he looked at Han Li and was about to ask him a question when he saw Gu Yue standing to the side.
Just one glance from her made him feel breathless, and he stopped talking before he could finish.
Han Li patted him on the shoulder. "Keep up, don't ask any questions. Just do whatever I tell you to do. The Martial Soul and Soul Ring will be taken care of."
Ning Fengzhi nodded, not daring to look in Gu Yue's direction again. The other party was putting a lot of pressure on him, and in short, he could tell that she wasn't very friendly.
At the same time, he was wondering about Gu Yue's identity. Was she a hidden hand of the Spirit Hall? Or someone else? Judging from her demeanor, she was definitely someone of high status, but he had never heard of her before.
Han Li ignored Ning Fengzhi's thoughts and speculations. He had already sworn an oath with his Martial Soul, so he was like meat on a chopping board. Even if Ning Fengzhi knew, it wouldn't matter, but there was no need to explain further.
In silence, the three walked about 500 meters and emerged from the woods.
In an open space, a Three-Headed Red Demon Hound was seen lying down. Its Soul Power fluctuations were very strong, but its Life force was very weak. Its eyes were almost closed, and it was clear that it would not live much longer.
Upon seeing Gu Yue, it struggled to get up, but couldn't even manage that.
Gu Yue shook its head slightly and fell silent again.
"Let me see your idea."
Gu Yue turned her head to look at Han Li and Ning Fengzhi beside him.
"Good."
Han Li didn't refuse and turned to Ning Fengzhi: "Three-Headed Red Demon Hound's 90,000 years old, as your Eighth Soul Ring, is that alright?"
Ning Fengzhi opened his mouth, clenched his fists, and nodded rapidly. Although the situation was quite different from what he had expected, and it was not the usual gem-type Soul Beast.
But this is a 90,000-year Soul Ring, which is comparable to or even higher than Sword Uncle's ninth Soul Ring. What more could he possibly want?
Anyway, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda has always been without Soul Ring. If he succeeds, it will be recorded in history, no doubt about it.
"Okay, that's good. Come with me."
Han Li led him a few steps forward to the Three-Headed Red Demon Hound hound. He activated the Mental Sharing feature, enveloping everyone present in it.
"I've already told you, haven't I? You did it voluntarily, right?"
Han Li chuckled and asked the Three-Headed Red Demon Hound a question.
"Woof."
Perhaps because Gu Yue was present, even in the Spiritual Space, the Three-Headed Red Demon Hound only barked once to show its attitude, and then remained silent.
"Do not offer any resistance."
Han Li's voice rang out, and a formation constructed from mental energy appeared between Ning Fengzhi and the Three-Headed Red Demon Hound.
"Using my words as a medium, I will draw upon the array of Soul Spirit to establish a contract."
Within their mental worlds, Han Li's voice became incredibly powerful, drawing their combined Spiritual Power into the formation.
As his voice ended, the entire magic circle shone brightly, enveloping them.
The light of the magic array drilled into their bodies, and Ning Fengzhi's Martial Soul automatically emerged. Meanwhile, the Soul Power of the Three-Headed Red Demon Hound was automatically activated, and a black Soul Ring flew towards the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, where its soul phantom manifested.
A massive amount of Soul Power flowed through the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, pouring into Ning Fengzhi and preventing him from being distracted, allowing him to focus entirely on his cultivation.
Outside, Gu Yue turned her gaze away from him and looked at Han Li.
"The magic array is just a facade; in essence, it's your response. It looks good, but it can't be implemented in the short term, nor is it suitable for large-scale implementation, and it doesn't completely solve the problem."
With these methods, there is no longer any doubt about Han Li's identity Plane Master. Although she is stronger than him, she cannot do this.
Moreover, from her perspective, the method was not bad, but it was only a temporary solution.
"There's not enough time, so this is the best we can do. Isn't it good to try more things before I succeed?"
Han Li smiled dismissively, shrugged, and said, "It's not good to take something that increases trust too seriously."
Gu Yue nodded, her eyes flickering slightly, her confidence growing stronger. Putting everything else aside, Han Li had indeed been showing goodwill all along.
The two watched Ning Fengzhi absorb the Soul Ring in silence, without exchanging any further words, waiting for the outcome.
The two individuals had different focuses regarding this sacrificial-like act.
Gu Yue was more concerned with the state of the Soul Spirit after success, to verify the feasibility, while Han Li, knowing that success was possible, was more concerned with what form the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda would take after completing the advancement in this way.
The example of Ning Rongrong in the original work is not relevant. Her Martial Soul evolved with Immortal Herb, and her Soul Skill were tailor-made for her. He was more interested in seeing what Ning Fengzhi would be like.
After more than half an hour, the fluctuations of Soul Power on Ning Fengzhi's body completely disappeared. He opened his eyes, a hint of joy flashing across his face.
He finally succeeded!
He broke the curse of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda and accomplished what his ancestors had never been able to do.
He was level 80, no, he went straight to level 86. Feeling his Soul Power grow much stronger, his eyes welled up with tears.
"Congratulations, Sovereign Ning."
Seeing his reaction, Han Li smiled and offered his congratulations.
"I am deeply grateful and cannot express my thanks."
Ning Fengzhi bowed deeply, which was of utmost importance to him, and he didn't say anything more about being at someone's beck and call.
Han Li did not dodge. He was worthy of this bow, and this time, he felt the Faith Power from Ning Fengzhi. Hmm, it was very pure.
Regardless of the future, at least in this moment, he was quite sincere.
As for what happened afterward, he didn't care. The Martial Soul Oath wasn't made for nothing.
"Alright, Sovereign Ning, stop focusing on the Soul Ring and take a look at your Martial Soul instead."
Han Li pointed to the Martial Soul he had overlooked, his face full of smiles.
"Martial Soul?"
Ning Fengzhi looked down at the Martial Soul in his hand, then blinked rapidly, his left hand trembling as he counted the layers one by one.
"Fifth floor, sixth floor, seventh floor, eighth floor..."
His finger stopped on the very top floor, the crystal-clear glass tower, which now had an eighth floor, and on the newly appeared eighth floor, there was a faint red tinge.
"Eight Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda".
After a long, stunned silence, Ning Fengzhi finally suppressed his excitement and uttered the name of his new Martial Soul.
Then, he prepared to bow to Han Li again.
"Wait, tell me about your Soul Skill first, then release your Soul Spirit to see."
Han Li used his Soul Power to hold him back and gave him a look, indicating that Gu Yue was still there. Only then did Ning Fengzhi finally calm down.
He closed his eyes, and after a moment, his Eighth Soul Ring lit up slightly, and a Three-Headed Red Demon Hound formed from Soul Power appeared in front of him.
The Three-Headed Red Demon Hound seemed quite surprised by this. As soon as it was released, it tried jumping around in place and even looked back at the body that originally belonged to it.
"Woof woof woof".
It ran a few steps happily, then crawled down towards Gu Yue.
Ning Fengzhi, who had made a contract with him, looked at Han Li as the translator and said, "It says it has come back to life."
Han Li's lips twitched. "You actually started translating? You don't think I'm really that curious, do you?" "You two should get along well in the future. Its combat strength should be quite good. By the way, what's your eighth Soul Skill?"
That's what Han Li really wanted to ask: who cares what a dog is saying anyway?
Ning Fengzhi finally calmed down a bit. He also noticed Han Li's emotions and smiled awkwardly.
These changes were so amazing that it was inevitable that he would get excited, and he lost his usual composure.
"Attribute Bestowal is different from amplifying the opponent's Martial Soul attribute before. My eighth Soul Skill can directly bestow fire attribute upon the amplified person. The strength is based on the fire strength of the Three-Headed Red Demon Hound. It is very strong, but there are also more restrictions."
When Ning Fengzhi talked about Soul Skill, his emotions didn't fluctuate as much as before.
Although it's still pretty good, and the other Soul Skill also enjoy a 10% boost, the eighth Soul Skill is clearly different from the previous ones, as it depends on the strength of the Soul Spirit.
Of course, it is very strong, after all, it is Three-Headed Red Demon Hound that is 90,000 years old. But compared to breakthrough, Martial Soul Evolution and the fact that it also has combat power, the effect of the Soul Skill is much easier to accept.
"Hmm, not bad."
After listening to his description, Han Li nodded. The Attribute Bestowal, and the skill matched his prediction.
"Alright, put it away. You just broke through, so take some time to adjust your condition. I'll send you back in a bit."
Han Li looked at Ning Fengzhi.
Ning Fengzhi skillfully put away his Martial Soul, letting the Soul Spirit enter his body, and walked towards him, letting Han Li put it into his wristband.
He understood! As for Gu Yue's identity, he had some guesses based on the Three-Headed Red Demon Hound's behavior and attitude, but he wouldn't tell anyone, including Ning Rongrong and the other two.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect will follow only the Holy Son Your Highness's lead!
