"Of course, I mean it."
Dark Northern Underworld slowly stood up and gestured for the two of them to follow him. "Please come with me, gentlemen."
Upon hearing this, the two exchanged a glance, quickly made a decision, and then Ning Fengzhi stood up and followed the other person.
"Gentlemen, this is the Soul Tool of our Northern Underworld Empire."
With one hand behind his back, Dark Northern Underworld introduced the newly added equipment in the fortress to them.
"This is the Attack Soul Cannon. This single shot is the full-force attack of a Soul Douluo, and this is just our standard equipment."
"And this, the Soul Power Shield. As long as there is energy, it can release a powerful shield that even Titled Douluo cannot break."
"And these too, the Surveillance Soul Tool, capable of detecting various situations in the surrounding area in real time. I already received information when you were dealing with the fortress."
Looking at the various Soul Tool, Ning Fengzhi was truly dazzled. In his mind, Soul Tool were just dispensable everyday items.
Only Storage Soul Tool are practical, but they are very rare, and the loss of the method of making Soul Tool has also led to their low popularity.
"Northern Underworld, what is the meaning of bringing us here to see all this?"
Chen Xin, who was standing to the side, withdrew her gaze from the Soul Tool and asked, "Is there any necessary connection between this and what you just said?"
Of course.
Dark Northern Underworld looked at the two of them. "Can you make these Soul Tool?"
"This..."
Ning Fengzhi hesitated for a moment. "There's really no research on Soul Tool on the Douluo Continent, and besides, we're focused on Martial Soul, so..."
That means there isn't one.
Dark Northern Underworld interrupted him, "As you've all seen, Soul Tool are already the core of Northern Underworld. If you don't know how to make Soul Tool, how will you integrate into the continent?"
"Using money? The currency of the Northern Underworld Continent is completely different from the Gold Soul Coin of the Douluo Continent. You can only exchange Gold Soul Coin for resources, and then convert them back and forth, which results in considerable losses."
"Relying on your Martial Soul? Although your Martial Soul is strong, it's not without alternatives. Soul Tool can easily replace you in this kind of work, so you must find a backer first."
"Backing?"
Since the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect entered the Upper Three Sects, this was the first time Ning Fengzhi had heard anyone say that they needed to find a backer.
After all, in the Douluo Continent, they themselves are one of the biggest backers.
"That's right. You need to find a family or sect you can cooperate with or join, and work together to gain a foothold."
"Without any special talent, this is very difficult to do."
"Any special skills?"
Ning Fengzhi was immediately troubled. "If you ask what my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is good at, it's nothing more than assisting Soul Master and finding treasures, but this..."
"Wait, you said, searching for treasure?"
Dark Northern Underworld interrupted Ning Fengzhi's soliloquy.
"Exactly."
Ning Fengzhi nodded. "The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda has the property of finding treasures. Rare minerals and Exotic Treasure can all be identified as long as they are in front of us."
That's how we've achieved our current success, step by step.
"Finding rare minerals will make things much easier."
Dark Northern Underworld suddenly laughed, "Since you have such capabilities, then you can go to Xi Zhao's place."
"Xi Zhao? That young man in white armor?"
The scene of Xi Zhao wearing the Snow Mastiff Armor and defeating Chrysanthemum Ghost Douluo in one blow flashed through Ning Fengzhi's mind.
"A young man? He's tens of thousands of years old."
Dark Northern Underworld turned to look at the two of them and snapped his fingers lightly, "Xi Zhao's family is in the western part of the Northern Underworld Continent, where minerals and gems are abundant, but the terrain is complex, and even Soul Tool cannot identify all the treasures."
If you join under the guise of cooperation, creating a win-win situation for both parties, it should be a good start.
"Real!"
Ning Fengzhi's eyes lit up immediately. "Please introduce me to them."
"No problem."
Seeing that the other party was already impatient, Dark Northern Underworld narrowed his eyes and a smile appeared on his lips.
"Seven days from now, help me repel the invading enemies from the Douluo Continent, and then bring your granddaughter here. I will naturally introduce you to Xi Zhao."
Upon hearing that Dark Northern Underworld was going to deal with the Spirit Hall group, Ning Fengzhi hurriedly reminded him, "Your Excellency, I heard that Pope Bibi Dong of the Spirit Hall will be coming in person tomorrow. Please be careful."
"Bibi Dong? Then let her come."
Dark Northern Underworld sneered, gently placing the sphere back in its place, and whispered, "I'll just have a taste of her flavor; I'm sure it won't disappoint me."
"What?"
Ning Fengzhi seemed not to have heard Dark Northern Underworld's words clearly.
"Nothing, please leave. Oh, right, and this too."
Dark Northern Underworld handed Ning Fengzhi something that looked like a cell phone, and seeing the other's curious expression, he immediately began to explain.
"This item is called Life-Link Soul Tool. It allows for communication across distances. Let me tell you how to use it."
After roughly understanding how to use it, Ning Fengzhi put his phone away and returned to the Douluo Continent camp with Chen Xin late at night.
"Ning Fengzhi, don't let me down."
Dark Northern Underworld smiled slightly. In fact, he agreed to let Ning Fengzhi enter the Northern Underworld Empire for half the reason because the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda was indeed useful for treasure hunting.
The other 50% is because of Ning Rongrong, whom he mentioned.
"Woman, you've successfully caught my attention."
Dark Northern Underworld licked his lips, seemingly impatient.
Meanwhile, Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin had successfully returned to their camp without being discovered by anyone.
"Phew~"
After everything settled down, Ning Fengzhi finally breathed a sigh of relief; it had been incredibly exciting.
It's important to understand that exchanging information with the enemy leader overnight is extremely dangerous. If they're not careful, their sect could become the common enemy of the Douluo Continent, which would definitely mean certain death.
"Sect Master, do you really think that guy can defeat Bibi Dong?"
Chen Xin, who was standing to the side, finally couldn't help but ask, "Judging from Bibi Dong's performance during the Martial Soul Competition, she was at least Titled Douluo of level 97 or above."
The extent of Dark Northern Underworld Kunpeng avatars is still uncertain.
"In any case, we have no way out now."
Ning Fengzhi let out a long sigh, closed his eyes, and leaned back in his chair. "You've seen those Soul Tool that record images. We already have leverage over Northern Underworld. Returning now would be a dead end."
Trust him. Besides, we're cooperating with the Northern Underworld Empire, so it doesn't matter if he dies.
"That's true."
"Oh, right Uncle Jian, I'll need your help to go back and bring Rongrong over."
Ning Fengzhi recalled that Dark Northern Underworld had said he would bring Ning Rongrong along. Although he was a little puzzled, he simply assumed that the other party wanted to see Ning Rongrong's talent.
Leave it to me.
