Eight Treasures, true Eight Treasures.
No one knew how many methods they had tried over the years to evolve their martial souls, the Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda.
This had become an obsession for generations of the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect.
It was truly agonizing to bear the name of the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect while the sect possessed only the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda.
Initially, he had approved of his son's proposed plan, though he had held a tentative attitude.
After all, it was nothing more than spending some money, right?
The Nine Treasures Glazed Sect was certainly not lacking in that.
Never had he imagined that his son would make such a massive commotion.
He, the old father, could barely keep up with it anymore.
But the moment he saw the Eight Treasures Glazed Pagoda, all his worries and troubles vanished completely.
Setting everything else aside, he believed that as long as he displayed the Eight Treasures Glazed Pagoda martial soul before those elders, they would go wild, each more eager than the last to empty their coffers to provide full support.
"Old Dad, you aren't being honest!"
Watching his father's expression change so rapidly, Ning Que's eyes held a hint of disdain.
"Hehe..."
Ning Yunfan just grinned foolishly at the Eight Treasures Glazed Pagoda, not minding his son's disdainful gaze in the slightest.
Once he had seen enough, he convened another meeting.
The content of the meeting was simple: to let them see the Eight Treasures Glazed Pagoda.
The effect was excellent!
Unprecedentedly good!
Some sect elders even burst into tears of joy.
There was no helping it; it had been ten thousand years of persistence. If not for the clear records in the sect, they would have given up long ago.
Now, they had finally seen hope.
How could they not be moved?
With the Eight Treasures Glazed Pagoda, there would eventually be a Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda.
In the future, there might even be two, three, or even more.
For a time, many of the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda martial soul holders who had previously given up on themselves were howling and clamoring to go out and earn money.
Who didn't have a son or grandson?
As long as this path was viable, they had hope, and their future children would have hope.
Some elders even suggested that as soon as Ning Que and Ye Guyi graduated, they should have children to pass down the Eight Treasures Glazed Pagoda as much as possible.
Fortunately, Ning Yunfan stopped them. He knew that what his son wanted was not just the Eight Treasures Glazed Pagoda, but the true Nine-Colored Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda.
Consequently, Ning Que's authority grew even greater.
In terms of military force, he could mobilize both the enshrined experts and the elders; for those he couldn't command by status, he could invite them using personal favors.
As for wealth, he was even less lacking.
Ning Que suspected that if he wanted to stage a coup and kick his father out of the sect master's position right now, more than half of the people would fully support him.
The excitement of the sect elders lasted for several days, and Ning Que had to deal with their enthusiasm one by one.
Fortunately, they also knew that for someone of Ning Que's age, cultivation was the most important thing, so they didn't delay him.
For the next period, Ning Que and Ye Guyi focused entirely on cultivation, sparring with the Title Douluo of the sect.
Only here did Ning Que reveal his true self.
Although his martial soul was of the support type, it did not mean he had no other means besides his Soul Tools.
He was also proficient in Self-Created Soul Skills and sword techniques.
Of course, he knew that what he should focus on most was mental attacks.
Without relying on Soul Tools, with his current strength, he could still handle an ordinary Soul Emperor by relying on his mental power and Self-Created Soul Skills.
Compared to Ning Que, who used various calculations, soul power circulation, and martial soul research to improve his combat strength, Ye Guyi was simple and direct.
She took the path of a physical athlete.
Combat, exhilarating!
Constant combat, constant challenges, crazily attacking the Title Douluo, getting beaten, crawling back up, and then getting beaten again.
She relied on her body's instincts to gain enlightenment.
Once she had grasped enough, she would find A-Que to guide her, and she would be able to take another step forward.
As for the sect, it took less than twenty days to purchase that one-hundred-thousand-year Golden Lion King head soul bone.
Upon receiving this news, Ning Que finally paused his cultivation.
They set off to witness Jin Sheng obtain his soul ring.
Having fused a 190,000-year torso bone and a 100,000-year head soul bone, and now mastering the Beast King Domain, Jin Sheng had undergone a complete transformation.
According to his original plan, he only needed to absorb a ten-thousand-year soul ring for his fourth, but with such grace bestowed by the Young Master, how could he be satisfied with a simple ten-thousand-year ring?
After much searching, they found a 26,000-year Golden Crocodile King for him.
"It happens today!"
Striking the Golden Crocodile King's wound with a single punch and watching the black soul ring manifest, Jin Sheng's eyes were filled with determination.
He then began to absorb the soul ring.
This process was not easy for Jin Sheng; the most critical part was the mental confrontation. Fortunately, possessing the Beast King Domain and a 100,000-year head soul bone, he was able to withstand the shock of the soul beast's lingering soul.
"Roar!"
Accompanied by a bestial roar, Jin Sheng suddenly opened his eyes, and a tyrannical aura erupted from his body.
He had succeeded!
His Martial Soul had successfully evolved, transforming from a Golden Crocodile into a Golden Crocodile King!
"It truly is enviable."
Watching from the side, Red Dragon Douluo sighed with emotion.
She also wanted her granddaughter's Martial Soul to take a step further, transforming from a Red Dragon into a higher-quality dragon-type Martial Soul.
To this end, she had specifically consulted Ning Que.
The final answer was that it was very difficult.
It was second only to the evolution of the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda.
The reason he valued Jin Sheng so highly and believed his Martial Soul could evolve further was, on one hand, that Jin Sheng's Innate Soul Power was infinitely close to full, and on the other, that his own bloodline possessed the necessary foundations.
As for Wu Feng's Red Dragon Martial Soul, the difficulty and resources required to advance it were beyond imagination, with a significant risk of failure.
Even Fire Dragon Douluo had to admit that if she were the Sect Master, she would not make such a decision.
"Golden Crocodile King, it's the Golden Crocodile King..."
Seeing his grandson's Martial Soul advance, Jin Heng wept with joy.
He had never imagined he would live to see the goal of his entire life fulfilled.
The others, seeing Jin Sheng's Martial Soul evolve, were also stirred to action.
They, too, wanted their Martial Souls to evolve; they also wanted to reach the next level.
"Why hasn't Shrek Academy started its term yet!"
"I'm still waiting to poach their talent!"
With the support of Elder Yang, Yang Duo had already possessed five soul bones, all over 50,000 years old, before absorbing his soul ring, which gave him the qualifications to absorb a 100,000-year soul ring as his ninth.
Not only that, but when he obtained the soul ring, he also acquired a 100,000-year torso bone; after fusing it, his soul power rose directly to level 93.
Now, he could not wait to head to Shrek Academy and poach talent from Yan Shaozhe.
He and his old man had no hope of their own Martial Souls evolving, but their descendants did!
Therefore, he was determined to have Cai Mei'er as his daughter-in-law.
"Defense Clan, all you old men come out and help with the smithing! Cooperate with the Young Master's plan to build a large-scale medicinal herb cultivation base. Young people, train hard! We must also progress, we must also evolve our Martial Souls!"
For a time, the entire Nine Treasures Glazed Sect was filled with surging enthusiasm; they had all been stimulated by Jin Sheng's Martial Soul evolution.
If nothing else, everyone present could feel the majesty of Jin Sheng's Golden Crocodile King Martial Soul—this was definitely the pressure possessed only by a Super Martial Soul.
In the future, he had the potential to reach the level of Elder Qingshan, or even higher; it was not impossible for him to advance further and reach the limit.
