"Father, do you still remember that ancestor whose Spirit was the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda?"
Ning Fengzhi pondered for a moment, then looked at Ning Bei.
"Are you saying that ancestor ate this Qiluo Tulip?"
"Precisely. There's a very high chance. Father can certainly give it a try."
Ning Fengzhi was silent for another moment before saying, "If this herb truly has such a function, I won't eat it. Let's save it for Rongrong. At my age, my potential is basically exhausted. If it doesn't evolve my Spirit, wouldn't it be a waste of a treasure?"
It must be said that Ning Fengzhi was quite rational, but Ning Bei had another solution.
"Father, have you forgotten the efficacy of the Dan Tower?"
"Hmm? Are you saying…?"
Ning Bei smiled smugly.
"That's right. I've already cultivated the seeds of the Qiluo Tulip within the Dan Tower. I believe another one can grow in the future, and then it can be given to Rongrong."
The few people instantly looked at Ning Bei with pleasant surprise. Two Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagodas would provide immeasurable help to the Sect. One must know that even with the seven-story limit, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda was still known as the number one support Spirit.
"Then I'll be the one to try it." Saying this, Ning Fengzhi happily took the Qiluo Tulip from Ning Bei's hand, staring at it with burning eyes.
"Father, you wouldn't suspect that the transaction I made would result in a loss now, would you?"
Ning Fengzhi smiled knowingly after hearing this.
"You little monkey, you're too clever. How could you ever suffer a loss?"
Saying this, he asked Ning Bei about the method for using the Qiluo Tulip.
Ning Bei waved his hand, stopping Ning Fengzhi's idea of consuming it on the spot.
"Father, I still have two Immortal Herbs here!"
The three suddenly realized. The effect of the Qiluo Tulip was simply too astonishing, attracting all their attention and making them completely forget that Ning Bei had just taken out three herbs. Anything taken out alongside the Qiluo Tulip surely wouldn't be ordinary.
"These two Immortal Herbs are called Nether Ghost Orchid and Hun Yuan Grass. The Nether Ghost Orchid is of great help to dark and evil-type Spirits, perhaps allowing such Spirits to achieve extreme attributes. It's quite suitable for Grandpa Gu's Bone Dragon Spirit."
"And this Hun Yuan Grass has a considerable effect on weapon-type Spirits. I believe it can elevate Grandpa Sword's Seven Kill Sword Qi to a higher level."
Ning Fengzhi nodded in satisfaction after listening. If the cultivation of these two could truly advance another level, then combined with his Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, they would be invincible on the continent.
If Ning Bei knew Ning Fengzhi's thoughts, he would definitely slap him awake. He should learn about the Enshriners in Spirit Hall.
When Sword and Gu saw that Ning Bei had also prepared Immortal Herbs for them, they were instantly moved beyond words, exclaiming that they hadn't doted on him for nothing.
Ning Bei frantically complained inwardly about the two of them, 'You two just need to stop lifting me by the neck in the future.'
The three then asked about the usage methods for their respective Immortal Herbs.
"The Nether Ghost Orchid requires controlling the Spirit to absorb its medicinal properties, while the Hun Yuan Grass and Qiluo Tulip can be consumed directly."
After hearing this, the three didn't bother to talk to Ning Bei anymore. They rushed out of the meeting hall, preparing to go into seclusion to absorb the herbs.
Ning Bei watched the three disappear. He inwardly exclaimed how heartless they were, pouting as he walked towards his residence. Since there was nothing to do for now, he would go and pet Rongrong.
After half a year, Rongrong was already able to crawl. Seeing Ning Bei enter on the carpet, she babbled and crawled to his side. Her mother looked at Ning Bei with a strange expression from the side.
"Today doesn't seem to be a holiday, does it? Why are you back?"
"Ah, I had something important to discuss with Father today, so I came back for a trip and to see Rongrong."
He picked up Ning Rongrong, who had grown a bit bigger, and tossed her into the air. The little girl excitedly cheered.
"Oh, by the way, Mother, here's a Nine-Grade Immortal Ganoderma. It has the effect of strengthening the foundation and nourishing vitality. You should take it."
Ning Mother looked at the ganoderma in front of her with some surprise. She didn't doubt the efficacy of the Nine-Grade Immortal Ganoderma, but then refused Ning Bei's kind offer.
"Give it to your father. As the Sect Master, he needs this herb more."
"No need, Mother. I've prepared other Immortal Herbs for Father."
Ning Mother accepted the Nine-Grade Immortal Ganoderma upon hearing this, looking at Ning Bei with loving eyes.
After an entire day of seclusion, the three had successfully absorbed the Immortal Herbs. Returning to the meeting hall, all three had undisguised joy in their eyes.
"Father, two Grandpas, how was it? Any gains?"
Gu Rong's body exuded an undisguised evil aura. Hearing Ning Bei's question, he burst into laughter.
"My Spirit attribute has indeed grown. Although it hasn't reached the extreme level, the enhancement to my Spirit is immense, and my spirit power has already reached level 95!"
Chen Xin, who was beside him, also spoke excitedly, "My Seven Kill Sword Qi has been greatly enhanced. Although my spirit power level hasn't broken through yet, I'm not far from level 96, and I feel like I can easily defeat my former self."
After speaking, the two looked at Ning Fengzhi along with Ning Bei.
Ning Fengzhi smiled slightly, not answering, but directly revealed his Spirit.
"One, two…eight, nine! Fengzhi, your Spirit has truly transformed into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda!"
Gu Rong looked at Ning Fengzhi with surprise. Chen Xin didn't speak, but the excitement in his eyes couldn't be hidden.
After Ning Fengzhi humbly conversed with the two Douluo for a while, he looked at Ning Bei again.
"Bei'er, don't you have a suitable Immortal Herb for yourself?"
Ning Bei waved his hand.
"Father, two Grandpas, you don't need to worry about me. The Immortal Herbs I need to consume are already prepared. Since there's more than one, I plan to consume them after handing the Spirit Bone to Senior Dugu."
"As long as you have a plan, we won't say anything more."
Immediately, Ning Fengzhi ordered someone to retrieve a 50,000-year Exploding Fire Lizard Right Arm Bone from the warehouse. Having received so many benefits from the other party, it wouldn't be good to casually fool them, even if Dugu Bo didn't know the value of the Immortal Herbs.
"Let's go, let's make this trip together."
Saying this, he took Chen Xin and Ning Bei with him and headed towards the Sunset Forest. Gu Rong, whose spirit power had just broken through, stayed in the Sect to consolidate his cultivation.
Under Sword Douluo's flying speed, the group soon arrived at the small town next to the Sunset Forest and knocked on the door of Dugu Bo's house.
It was Dugu Yan who opened the door, showing pleasant surprise upon seeing Ning Bei.
"Ning Bei, you're here."
"Cough cough… Young lady, I am Ning Bei's father. May I ask you to call out Senior Dugu? Then you can chat with my son."
Ning Fengzhi, who was beside him, interrupted their chatter and also teased Dugu Yan, making Ning Bei inwardly call him disrespectful.
Dugu Yan's pretty face flushed, and she immediately turned and ran into the house.
Soon, Dugu Bo's figure appeared before everyone.
"School Master Ning, Sword Douluo, please come in."
The group entered the house and took their seats. Dugu Yan, with a shy expression, occasionally cast glances at Ning Bei, making Ning Bei quite puzzled.
Ning Fengzhi took out the prepared Spirit Bone and handed it to Dugu Bo.
"This is a 50,000-year Exploding Fire Lizard Right Arm Bone. Please take a look, Senior."
Dugu Bo was excited upon hearing this. He had thought the other party would just casually give him a 10,000-year limb Spirit Bone to get rid of him, after all, he had only given a few unknown herbs. He hadn't expected the other party to be so generous, offering a 50,000-year Spirit Bone right away.
"Then this old man thanks School Master Ning here. If there's anything you need help with in the future, just say the word."
It must be said that the Ning father and son were simply too devious. They clearly took a huge advantage of the other person, yet they made the other person feel grateful and think that the two of them had suffered a loss, even wanting to repay the favor in the future.
