Shrouding the Heavens Secret Art - Grass Sword Art! Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda!

"If you want to eat it, you can."

Lin Qiu closed the lid in a leisurely manner, cutting off that enticing fragrance. "But there is no such thing as a free lunch in this world. This item is my treasure, so why should I give it to you?"

As the fragrance vanished, Ning Rongrong became anxious, like a child whose favorite toy had been snatched away.

"You... how much money do you want? I have money! I have plenty of Gold Soul Coins! Ten thousand? A hundred thousand? Or even more?" Ning Rongrong said eagerly.

Lin Qiu let out a scoff, his eyes filled with disdain.

"Gold Soul Coins? Such vulgar things are only valued by mortals like you."

He sat back down on the bed, stretched out his long legs, and said lazily:

"I grew a bit tired from cultivating just now, and my legs are feeling sore."

Ning Rongrong froze.

This hint... no, this was far too blatant!

As the dignified little princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, she had been waited on by others since she was a child. When had it ever been her turn to serve someone else?

"In your dreams! This young lady will absolutely not—"

Lin Qiu didn't waste words; he tapped his fingers lightly against the jade box, producing a crisp "tap-tap" sound.

"Forget it then. I might as well take this thing and feed it to that big yellow dog guarding the gate."

As he spoke, he made a move to put the jade box away.

"Wait! Don't put it away!"

Ning Rongrong's defenses crumbled instantly.

The mere thought of such a precious item being fed to a dog made her heart bleed.

She bit her lip, glancing at the jade box, then at Lin Qiu's excessively handsome face.

A fierce struggle began within her.

It was a battle between dignity and evolution.

Anyway... nobody is watching.

Besides, he is so powerful; he was able to manifest such a terrifying phenomenon, so he must be a peerless expert.

Massaging the legs of an expert shouldn't be considered shameful, right?

And besides, he's so good-looking, I... I'm not losing out.

Ning Rongrong quickly found an excuse for herself in her mind.

The next second.

The little demoness, who had been so arrogant just a moment ago, instantly plastered a sickeningly sweet smile on her face.

"Big Brother~"

That "Big Brother" was delivered with such lingering sweetness that it was off the charts.

Ning Rongrong scurried over to the bedside, crouched down without a care for her image, and placed her two fair, delicate hands gently onto Lin Qiu's calves.

"Big Brother, is this pressure okay?"

"Oh my, Big Brother, your muscles are so firm; one look and I can tell you've trained hard."

"Big Brother, does this spot need a bit more pressure?"

For the sake of that Nine Wonders Ganoderma, Ning Rongrong had completely let go of all inhibitions.

Integrity? What was that? Was it edible?

Lin Qiu enjoyed the service of this future deity, finding it quite amusing.

This girl, though a bit spoiled and willful, was quite likable for knowing how to read the room.

"Hmm, a little to the left."

"Yes, right there."

Lin Qiu directed her like a lord.

After about the time it takes to brew a cup of tea.

Seeing the fine beads of sweat on Ning Rongrong's forehead, Lin Qiu decided to stop teasing her.

With a casual flick, the jade box traced an arc through the air and landed in Ning Rongrong's arms.

"Consider it a reward."

Ning Rongrong clutched the jade box tightly as if it were a priceless treasure, terrified that Lin Qiu might change his mind.

"Thank you, Big Brother! Big Brother, you really are a great person! The best person in the whole world!"

She couldn't wait to open the box, and ignoring all decorum, she grabbed the Nine Wonders Ganoderma and shoved it into her mouth.

It melted the moment it touched her tongue.

A cool yet immense surge of energy flowed down her throat and through her entire body, and immediately after, that energy turned scalding hot, as if a ball of fire were burning within her.

"Mmm..."

Ning Rongrong let out a muffled groan, her body trembling uncontrollably.

She hurriedly sat cross-legged, guiding the surge of energy according to the meditation techniques of her clan.

Boom!

Brilliant light erupted from within her body.

This time, it was no longer a simple seven-colored radiance; amidst those seven colors, two streaks of sacred gold and profound silver had emerged.

Nine-Colored Divine Light!

A crystal-clear miniature pagoda slowly rose from her palm.

The pagoda had originally possessed only seven levels, representing the absolute limit of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.

But at this moment, under the scouring of the Nine Wonders Ganoderma's immense medicinal power, the shackles that had bound the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect for countless years shattered with a bang!

The eighth level slowly condensed and took shape!

Immediately following, the ninth level!

The moment that ninth level of the pagoda body became completely solid, the entire room was enveloped in that dreamlike, nine-colored radiance.

"This... this is..."

Ning Rongrong opened her eyes, staring at the iridescent nine-story pagoda in her hand as tears welled up and spilled over.

"Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda... it really is the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda!"

This was her father's lifelong dream, and the greatest regret of Sword Grandpa and Bone Grandpa.

The curse that had plagued the sect for hundreds of years had actually been broken right here in this humble side hall, all because of a "grass" whose name she didn't even know?

She raised her head, looking at the youth who remained as calm and composed as ever.

At this very moment, the image of Lin Qiu in her eyes was no longer just some "handsome big brother," but a true deity descended to the mortal realm!

"Big Brother!"

Ning Rongrong lunged forward, grabbing Lin Qiu's leg and nearly rubbing her tears onto him.

"From now on, you are my own biological big brother! If you tell me to go east, I will never go west! Whoever dares to say a single bad word about you, I, Ning Rongrong, will be the first to bite them to death!"

Lin Qiu pushed her face away with disdain: "So dirty, stay away."

Ning Rongrong didn't mind at all, climbing up with a silly grin and patting her chest:

"Big Brother, since you've given me such a great fortune, I can't just take it for nothing. My family doesn't have much, but we have plenty of money!

Whatever Soul Tools or rare treasures you want in the future, just tell me, and I'll have my dad buy them for you! I can even buy half the shops in Heaven Dou City and gift them to you!"

Lin Qiu glanced at her, the corners of his mouth curling up: "You are teachable."

Although this girl's strength wasn't much to speak of, this "money-power" was indeed quite good.

"Alright, don't just focus on being happy. Let me see how this evolved Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda performs," Lin Qiu said indifferently.

"You got it!"

Ning Rongrong was brimming with confidence now.

"Nine Treasures turn out the Glazed Tile!"

Following her sharp, delicate cry, the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda in her hand spun and flew out, hovering in mid-air.

"Nine Treasures have names, the first: Power! The second: Speed!"

Two streaks of nine-colored light shot out from the tip of the pagoda, instantly sinking into Lin Qiu's body.

Lin Qiu felt his body lighten, and the power within him seemed to be ignited, increasing by a significant margin out of thin air.

"Oh? A forty percent boost?"

Lin Qiu was somewhat surprised.

One had to know that Ning Rongrong was currently only a Soul Grand Master, yet she could achieve such a terrifying amplification effect; it was truly worthy of being the complete form of the world's number one support Martial Soul.

"Since that's the case, I shall test my hand as well."

Lin Qiu stood up, his hand gripping the empty air.

He did not use any weapons.

Yet, at this moment, he seemed to transform into a blade of grass swaying in the wind.

This seemingly fragile blade of grass contained a supreme sword intent capable of severing the sun, moon, and stars.

Shrouding the Heavens secret technique—Grass Sword Art!

Even though Lin Qiu could currently only display one-billionth of its surface, in this Douluo plane, it was nothing short of a dimensional strike.
