Chapter Summary: “The Price”

Key Plot Points and Events

• Feng Baiyu initially demands six Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Bones from Ning Fengzhi in exchange for an Immortal Herb capable of evolving the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.
• Ning Fengzhi is shocked and embarrassed, realizing that his earlier promise to pay “whatever the cost” has trapped him in an impossible negotiation.
• Feng Baiyu lowers the price to three Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Bones, presenting it as a serious and more reasonable offer.
• Ning Fengzhi carefully considers the exchange and decides that three Soul Bones are worth sacrificing for the long-term future of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. The Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda could overcome the sect’s thousand-year limitation and allow it to cultivate powerful Titled Douluo.
• Ning Fengzhi accepts the condition and vows to return after obtaining the three Soul Bones. He then leaves with Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo.
• After their departure, Feng Qingluan questions whether the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect can truly gather the required treasures.
• Feng Baiyu explains that obtaining even one Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Bone would be extraordinarily difficult, while acquiring three would likely be impossible without severely damaging the sect’s foundations.
• He predicts that the sect may become trapped by its initial investment: after obtaining one Soul Bone, it may continue hunting for more rather than admit the effort was wasted.
• If the sect abandons the deal, Feng Baiyu expects it to focus on nurturing Ning Rongrong, whose innate Soul Power is expected to be rank nine. He plans to exploit that need later by selling treasures such as Whale Rubber and demanding enormous compensation.
• Feng Baiyu reveals that the Immortal Herb was bait designed to attract powerful factions. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect has taken it, and he expects the Heaven Dou Empire to become his next target.
