Return to the Sect

Xu Yang only felt as if his whole body had gone dizzy, like he had taken a ride on an insanely fast roller coaster. The entire way, all he had felt was a wild wind rushing into his face, even pouring into his mouth, while his head had been shaken numb.

"Next time, I'm never letting you carry me again, Uncle Ning!"

This was practically faster than being flown around by Dugu Bo.

Of course, this was not to say Dugu Bo was slower than Ning Haiyan. It was only because Dugu Bo had taken his body's endurance into account while flying, so his speed had been relatively gentle, within what Xu Yang could bear. As for Ning Haiyan, he had probably heard that Xu Yang had an extremely urgent matter, so he had ignored Xu Yang's feelings and rushed too quickly.

"Ugh!"

After supporting himself against the wall and dry-heaving a few times, Xu Yang finally felt a little better, and his mind temporarily regained clarity.

"Young master, are you all right?" Ning Haiyan scratched his head, looking a little embarrassed as he watched Xu Yang nearly throw up.

"I'm fine!" Xu Yang shook his head, then took a nine-petaled purple ganoderma from the Wishful Treasure Sack and stuffed it into Ning Haiyan's arms. It was precisely the Ninth Grade Purple Ganoderma.

"Uncle Ning, when you go back to your room in a bit, eat it! Maybe you can use it to reach the level of Soul Douluo, or even become a Titled Douluo in the future."

After saying that, Xu Yang did not look back. He staggered off to find Ning Fengzhi.

Ning Haiyan looked at the Ninth Grade Purple Ganoderma in his hands and, for a moment, did not know what to say. With his aptitude, becoming a Soul Douluo was no problem, but he had no confidence at all about becoming a Titled Douluo. It should be said that Soul Douluo was already what he considered his own limit.

"Can this purple ganoderma really let me reach Titled Douluo?!"

Ning Haiyan was doubtful about this. To the people of Douluo Continent, whether it was Soul Tools or pills, external forces were the least desirable, because they believed that only Soul Power cultivated by oneself truly belonged to oneself and was the most reliable.

Moreover, cultivating with the help of medicinal power would only lock one's upper limit, leaving them unable to advance even an inch for the rest of their life.

On this point, Xu Yang was completely different from people like them. Humans had become the rulers of the entire continent precisely because they knew how to learn to borrow external forces. When it was time to borrow them, they still had to be borrowed. As long as it did not affect one's foundation, eating a few medicinal herbs was not a big deal.

In the main hall of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, inside Seven Treasure Pavilion!

Ning Fengzhi sat in the main seat with a grave expression, waiting for Xu Yang's arrival.

As early as when Xu Yang entered Seven Treasure City, he had already received the news. Seeing him so anxious, he knew that something major might have happened!

"Don't worry! Hasn't Yang Er come back safely?" At the side, Madam Ning, who was holding Ning Rongrong, saw this and comforted him.

"It's precisely because of that that I feel this matter may be somewhat serious. With Yang Er's personality, he would find a way to resolve small matters himself. Only when he encountered a major matter he couldn't solve would he be this anxious. Did something happen in Heaven Dou City?! Or the imperial family?! But why haven't I received any news at all?!" Ning Fengzhi's brows furrowed.

"I'm not sure. We'll know once Yang Er comes in!" Madam Ning said in a low voice.

"That's all we can do!" Ning Fengzhi nodded.

Before long, Xu Yang came rushing in like a gust of wind and fire. As soon as he looked up, he saw Ning Fengzhi and Madam Ning. When Ning Rongrong, in Madam Ning's arms, saw Xu Yang, she immediately started struggling and shouted loudly, "Brother, up!"

Madam Ning had no choice but to put Ning Rongrong on the ground and let her run toward Xu Yang.

Xu Yang picked Ning Rongrong up in one motion and gently pinched her chubby little face.

"Yang Er, did something happen?! You rushed back here so anxiously!" Ning Fengzhi asked, somewhat puzzled.

This was completely different from what he had imagined. Returning in such a hurry, even making Haiyan erupt with such terrifying Soul Power, should have meant some major incident had occurred. Yet Xu Yang's face was relaxed, not looking at all like something big had happened.

With a wave of his hand, Xu Yang took out five immortal herbs, including the Aromatic Silk Beauty, Black Jade Divine Bamboo, Daffodil Jade Flesh Bone, Eight Petal Immortal Orchid, and Land Dragon Golden Melon, and sent them flying in front of Ning Fengzhi.

"Teacher, these are all immortal herbs I exchanged from Senior Dugu Bo based on information about immortal herbs. Among them, the Aromatic Silk Beauty and Eight Petal Immortal Orchid can let the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul evolve into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda. I prepared them for you and Rongrong, Teacher.

"The Black Jade Divine Bamboo is for Sword Grandfather, the Land Dragon Golden Melon is for Bone Grandfather, and the Daffodil Jade Flesh Bone is for Master's Wife!

"Their specific effects are all recorded in this notebook!"

As he spoke, Xu Yang took out his own notebook again and handed it to Ning Fengzhi.

"What did you say?!" Ning Fengzhi did not take the notebook. Instead, he stood up directly and looked at Xu Yang in disbelief.

The evolution of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda was the lifelong pursuit of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. Yet after so many years, no one had succeeded. Even in the historical records of their predecessors, only the Eight Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda had appeared. The Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda existed only in legend.

And now, just two medicinal herbs could make the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda evolve into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.

"The Aromatic Silk Beauty and Eight Petal Immortal Orchid can let the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda evolve into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda!"

Xu Yang repeated it. In the Original Work, the Aromatic Silk Beauty had let Ning Rongrong's Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda evolve into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda. As the Mandarin Duck Immortal Herb that complemented the Aromatic Silk Beauty, the Eight Petal Immortal Orchid definitely had the same effect too, though it might be slightly inferior to the Aromatic Silk Beauty.

Hearing this, Ning Fengzhi hurriedly took the notebook from Xu Yang's hands and began flipping through it.

"Aromatic Silk Beauty, absorbs the essence of heaven and earth and the radiance of the sun and moon, can distinguish the characteristics of all spiritual objects of heaven and earth, commands spiritual objects of heaven and earth... Eight Petal Immortal Orchid, an immortal herb that can complement the Aromatic Silk Beauty, with gentle and mellow medicinal properties, easy to absorb, but requires a very long time..."

Looking at the contents of the notebook, Ning Fengzhi grew even more astonished, especially at the Aromatic Silk Beauty. If its effects were truly as the notebook said, then it was a perfect match for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda. Nothing was more suitable for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda than it.

"Yang Er, is everything written in this notebook true?!" Ning Fengzhi still found it somewhat hard to believe.

"Of course. Senior Dugu Bo has already verified the effects of the Land Dragon Golden Melon. His Martial Soul has already evolved from the Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor into the Jade Phosphor Horned Dragon, which is already a Sub-Dragon Species and a top-tier Martial Soul no inferior to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon!" Xu Yang nodded and replied with a smile.

Then his tone shifted, and he stated Dugu Bo's request. "However, I promised Senior Dugu that I wouldn't reveal it. Teacher, you can't reveal it either. For this, I even swore on my Martial Soul."

"I understand. I won't say anything. Later, I'll personally go find Lord Dugu to discuss it!" Ning Fengzhi nodded solemnly, then continued reading the notebook's contents. He had to finish reading all the effects related to the immortal herbs.

Only after reading it did he realize just how suitable the immortal herbs Xu Yang had chosen were. Once these immortal herbs were absorbed, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's overall strength would absolutely rise to another level. Perhaps it could even reach the level of strength the Clear Sky Sect had back then.
