Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda

The morning after Mo An arrived at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, he was practicing his punches beneath the rising sun when Ning Fengzhi came to his courtyard with Sword Douluo and Ning Rongrong.

Ning Fengzhi smiled as he entered. "Mo An, did you sleep well? Are you settling in here at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?"

Sword Douluo was a man of few words and showed no intention of greeting Mo An. Ning Rongrong lay across his back, looking as though she wanted to sleep a while longer.

"Everything's been great."

The lodging, clothes, and food the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect had provided Mo An were all among the finest on the Douluo Continent. If that wasn't good, nothing was.

"I'm glad you're settling in. I was worried that coming here so suddenly from North Sea City might take some getting used to."

"Not really. It doesn't feel that different."

After a few more pleasantries, Ning Fengzhi took out a belt, a set of clothes, and a token, and placed them before Mo An.

"This belt is a Storage Soul Tool. Infuse it with Soul Power, and it will open a special space. I've put quite a few things you'll find useful inside, including several pieces of older Whale Rubber. You can look through them at your leisure."

"These are the clothes worn by our sect's core disciples. They're made from a special material that repels dust, regulates temperature, and withstands attacks. You only need to wear them on important occasions."

"This token represents me. With it, you can go anywhere in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and call upon the sect's resources."

Ning Fengzhi pressed all three items into Mo An's hands and explained what they did. They were the tokens of sincerity he had spent the whole night racking his brains to come up with.

"This is far too precious."

Looking at the token in his hand, the one that represented Ning Fengzhi himself, Mo An had to admit he was moved. Even knowing why Ning Fengzhi had done it, he still felt something stir inside him. He had only just joined the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, yet Ning Fengzhi already trusted him this much. That trust was the most precious gift of all.

"Hahaha! You're a genius with Innate Full Soul Power, and you shared the opportunity presented by Whale Rubber with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. Compared with that, these little things are all I can offer. I'm almost embarrassed."

Ning Fengzhi waved the matter aside and promptly changed the subject.

"Mo An, you've only just joined the sect, so you don't know your way around yet. Let Rongrong show you around."

"Sorry for the trouble, Miss Rongrong."

Once Mo An agreed, Ning Fengzhi, who still had matters to attend to, exchanged a few more polite words with him and left with Sword Douluo.

As soon as her father and Grandpa Sword were out of sight, the well-behaved look vanished from Ning Rongrong's face. Recalling what her father had told her yesterday, she sized Mo An up. "Where do you want to go?"

"I heard there are many precious books in that tower. Could you take me to see them?"

Mo An meant the tower at the heart of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. Ning Fengzhi had told him yesterday that it housed a library and a treasury, and he wanted to see the sect's collection of books.

"Precious books? Are there really any in there?"

Truthfully, this was the first Ning Rongrong had heard of precious books in that tower. She had only gone inside once in her life. When she found nothing fun there, she had never gone back.

"Your father said so."

Explaining the matter would have been too complicated, so Mo An ended the debate with a single sentence.

"Fine."

Ning Rongrong did not want to go into the tower, but her task today was to show Mo An around the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

She looked up at the boring tower and gave a soft sigh before leading the way. Along the way, she tried several times to tempt Mo An with promises of something fun to do instead, but he turned her down every time.

At the entrance to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, Mo An showed the token Ning Fengzhi had given him, and the two children entered the tower that held all the treasures of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

Since Ning Rongrong knew nothing about the tower, Mo An asked the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect Soul Masters who guarded and maintained it for details.

The building was shaped like a Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda and had seven floors. The bottom three held books, while the upper four held all manner of rare treasures. The higher an item was kept, the more precious it was.

The sect's collection had so few categories mainly because the development of this world itself was strangely simple.

Once he understood the tower's layout, Mo An made a rough circuit of the bottom three floors, then picked up a book about the various Martial Souls of the Douluo Continent.

As the saying went, know yourself and know your enemy, and you could win a hundred battles. He was bound to face all kinds of opponents in the future. Learning about their Martial Souls in advance could only help.

Seeing that Mo An had finally settled down after wandering from place to place, Ning Rongrong dropped into a chair. Its comfort soon lulled her to sleep.

Mo An noticed Ning Rongrong sleeping soundly during a pause in his reading. He did not wake her and turned his attention back to the book.

For one thing, he barely knew Ning Rongrong, so they had little to talk about.

For another, he would rather be killed outright than take the initiative to build a bond with a little girl.

It was better to let things take their natural course.

With that thought, Mo An devoted all his attention to the book on Martial Souls.

Spirit Hall's inherited Martial Soul: the top-tier Six-Winged Angel. Most who possessed this Martial Soul had Innate Full Soul Power. Upon reaching a certain stage of development, they could awaken a domain on their own. This domain possessed formidable purifying power, allowing them to directly purify an opponent's Soul Power, weaken their opponent, and strengthen themselves.

Below the entry on the Angel Martial Soul were detailed records of battles, including one involving Sword Douluo's father and Qian Daoliu, the pope two generations before the last. Its Soul Skills were described as well.

The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's inherited Martial Soul: the top-tier Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon. It possessed the thunder attribute and was the Douluo Continent's foremost Beast Martial Soul. Its Dragon Transformation trait allowed its wielder to complete the transformation at level seventy and unleash terrifying destructive power.

Thanks to Dragon Transformation, those who possessed the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul were regarded as the most fearsome Power Attack System Soul Masters of their level.

Note: The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul was particularly prone to mutation. Its chance of Martial Soul Mutation was several times that of other Martial Souls.

The note was followed by numerous examples of Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul mutations.

The Clear Sky Sect's inherited Martial Soul: the strength-type Clear Sky Hammer. It possessed immense strength and explosive power, and held an advantage over the vast majority of Tool Martial Souls. Combined with the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer and Great Sumeru Hammer, it could unleash terrifying destructive force, firmly claiming the throne as the world's foremost Tool Martial Soul.

Note: The secret to the Clear Sky Sect's strength lay not in its Martial Soul, but in the sect's Self-Created Soul Skills.
