External Soul Bone, Alchemy Fragrance Upgrade

Gu Rong was somewhat disappointed after hearing that. He had thought they could mass-produce people with Innate Full Soul Power. But thinking about it, that made sense. If they really could do that, wouldn't it be heaven-defying? This was only the Second Spirit Ring, after all.

Gu Rong put those thoughts aside and looked at the other Elixirs in Ning Bei's hand.

"What about these? What do they do?"

Ning Bei first took out the purple Elixir in his hand.

"This one is called a Qi Enhancing Pill. It can increase a Soul Master's Soul Power by thirty percent for a short period."

"Thirty percent? Looks like this Soul Skill inherited the support effects of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda. No wonder it mutated from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda."

Ning Bei smiled awkwardly when he heard that. Could he not know whether it had mutated from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda? He simply did not explain it to Gu Rong. This misunderstanding was rather nice, too.

He then pointed to the Milky White Elixir in his hand.

"This one is a Bone Growth Pill. Its effect is also to heal injuries."

"Hm? Isn't that effect overlapping with the Wound Recovery Pill?"

Hearing Gu Rong's question, Ning Bei smiled faintly.

"The recovery effects of these two Elixirs can stack!"

"What?"

Gu Rong's eyes widened again when he heard that. If every Spirit Ring could produce an Elixir that healed injuries in the future, and all their effects could stack, wouldn't that be even more broken than the Nine Heart Begonia?

Ignoring the old man's shock, Ning Bei continued pointing at the pale blue Elixirs in his hand.

"The last two are the Meridian Protecting Pill and the Detoxification Pill. Take the Meridian Protecting Pill before absorbing a Spirit Ring, and it can effectively protect the meridians, reducing the risk of Soul Power damaging them. It can probably increase the number of years of a Spirit Ring one can absorb."

"The Detoxification Pill can remove some common poisons."

Gu Rong no longer knew how many times he had been shocked. He could only smack his lips and look at Ning Bei.

"You really aren't human."

Ning Bei rolled his eyes again. Thank you for the compliment, old man. Then a sly smile flashed across his lips. This would not be the last time he shocked Gu Rong.

"Bone Grandfather, this harvest isn't limited to these things."

"Oh? What else is there? Tell me and let this old man be happy all at once."

Ning Bei immediately closed his eyes and controlled his Soul Power as it flowed toward his back. A pair of small wings emerged behind him.

Under Gu Rong's shocked gaze, Ning Bei slowly rose into the air.

"An External Soul Bone?"

Gu Rong had this much knowledge as a Titled Douluo. Ning Bei's Spirit Bone clearly did not belong to any of the traditional six locations. There was only one explanation: an External Soul Bone.

A growth-type External Soul Bone whose value was second only to a hundred-thousand-year Spirit Ring and Spirit Bone.

Seeing Gu Rong's shocked expression once again, Ning Bei looked extremely pleased with himself.

"Bone Grandfather, let's go back! I can fly now that I have wings."

Hearing that, Gu Rong flew into the air and grabbed Ning Bei by the scruff of his neck from behind once again.

"What are you showing off for? You want to fly back by yourself? Aren't you afraid that people with ulterior motives will kill you and take your bone?"

"Although killing the owner of an External Soul Bone doesn't cause it to drop, that doesn't change the fact that there are too many ignorant people around. What if someone thinks it's just an ordinary Spirit Bone?"

Ning Bei wilted when he heard that, like an eggplant struck by frost. Helpless, he could only let Gu Rong carry him as they flew.

After returning to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Gu Rong took Ning Bei straight to the Council Hall.

Under Ning Fengzhi's shocked gaze, he recounted the matter of Ning Bei's Soul Skill and External Soul Bone.

Seeing Ning Fengzhi's expression, Gu Rong nodded in satisfaction. How could he be the only one who looked like a country bumpkin entering the city? He still had to go shock Old Sword Man later.

"Bei Er, your Second Spirit Skill is extremely important to the Sect. You must never reveal it. The same goes for your External Soul Bone."

After recovering from his shock, Ning Fengzhi solemnly warned Ning Bei.

Ning Bei knew that this was for his own good, so he did not find Ning Fengzhi's reminders annoying.

"I understand, Father."

Ning Fengzhi was very pleased with Ning Bei's attitude and said with a smile, "Then let's discuss how many Elixirs your Second Spirit Skill can produce each day."

As the Sect Master, developing the Sect was also a major matter to him.

After Ning Bei summoned the Pill Pagoda and released his Second Spirit Skill, he sensed his own Soul Power.

After absorbing the Second Spirit Ring, his Soul Power Level had already reached Level 22.

"It's more or less the same as when I had just obtained my First Spirit Ring. I can produce a total of ten Second Grade Pills of various types each day, but I can make nearly fifty First Grade Pills per day."

Ning Fengzhi nodded after listening. He now had an estimate of Ning Bei's Elixir output.

"So that means producing Foundation Establishment Spirit Liquid at full strength every day could help ten children increase their Innate Soul Power?"

Although Foundation Establishment Spirit Liquid had little effect on children whose Innate Soul Power was already above Level 5, such children were ultimately a tiny minority. In the entire Soul Master world, most people had Innate Soul Power below Level 5, accounting for more than ninety percent of all Soul Masters.

After using the Foundation Establishment Spirit Liquid to increase their potential, these children would become the backbone of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

After instructing Ning Bei to continue cultivating his Soul Power and work hard to produce Foundation Establishment Spirit Liquid, Ning Fengzhi began arranging for Sword and Bone, the two Douluo, to capture some Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts over two thousand years old and bring them back. He wanted to test whether the Pill Pagoda's additional effect had grown stronger.

Within a few days, the two Douluo had captured dozens of Soul Beasts of various suitable ages. In his spare time between cultivation, Ning Bei tested them one by one under the two men's protection.

After two weeks of testing, everyone discovered that the Alchemy Fragrance released by the Pill Pagoda could now produce a fatal attraction for Soul Beasts around five thousand years old. Its effect on Soul Beasts above five thousand years gradually weakened, and once they reached seven thousand years, it no longer had much effect.

However, no one was disappointed in the slightest. Confirming that the Alchemy Fragrance released by Ning Bei's Pill Pagoda grew stronger along with his cultivation was enough to excite them.

The Alchemy Fragrance could now help Soul Beasts increase their cultivation by two years each day. This meant that Ning Bei could possess an unlimited number of powerful Battle Pets in the future. Once he reached the Titled Douluo level—or perhaps even merely the Soul Douluo level—he might be able to mass-produce hundred-thousand-year Soul Beasts.

Everyone felt that the thought of such a scene was simply too beautiful.

Ning Bei's importance within the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect rose yet again, and his allowance also increased substantially.

As for the Foundation Establishment Spirit Liquid he produced each day, Ning Bei handed it over to Ning Fengzhi. Ning Fengzhi selected a group of orphans within the territory of Seven Treasure City and let them join the Sect to cultivate.

Over the following six months, Ning Bei focused on nurturing two hundred-year Soul Beasts.

One was the Hurricane Hunting Falcon, which had already reached four hundred and fifty years of cultivation. It could flap its wings to create a large number of Wind Blades, and it was extremely fast. An ordinary Battle Soul Master could not even touch it.

The second was the Golden Armor Battle Bear, which had currently reached eight hundred and sixty years of cultivation. This Soul Beast possessed extremely impressive defensive power. During battle, Ning Bei planned to have it stand in front of him and protect him.

These two Soul Beasts had spent some time with Ning Bei already. Nourished by the Alchemy Fragrance, they had formed a very deep friendship with him. Ning Bei could now command them in battle as easily as moving his own arms.

As for why he did not choose thousand-year Soul Beasts, Ning Bei had his own considerations. It was time to start planning for the Immortal Herbs at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
