Chapter 55: Distributing Immortal Treasures

Tian Lin returned to the Seven Treasures Hall with Ning Fengzhi and the others. Now that he was here, he could finally take out some treasures, as only trusted people could enter this place. If they were outside, in a sect as vast as the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, it would be hard to ensure that there weren't spies from other sects or the Spirit Hall lurking around. It was as if Ning Fengzhi had anticipated Tian Lin's thoughts. As soon as they entered the hall, he waved his hand, instructing everyone except Tian Lin, Ning Rongrong, and the three elders to leave. This was because the reward Ning Fengzhi prepared for Tian Lin was incredibly precious, and the fewer people who knew about it, the better. "Tian Lin, what's your current soul power level? Last time, you mentioned in your letter that you successfully obtained your third soul ring with Dugu Bo's help, correct?" Chen Xin asked with concern. "Yes, Master. My third soul ring came from a 5,500-year-old Gale Golden-Winged Eagle. Not only did it grant me an exceptionally powerful soul skill, but it also significantly boosted my soul power. I'm currently at the peak of Rank 32." "Rank 32 at such a young age? Tian Lin, you've truly broken the records of the continent! I doubt there's anyone your age who has reached the level of Soul Elder," Ning Fengzhi said in astonishment and delight. "Well, it has happened before," Tian Lin thought to himself. That innate Rank 20 genius, Qian Renxue, must have also broken past Rank 30 before the age of nine. If it weren't for him, she would have been the true number one prodigy on the continent. Perhaps, purely in terms of talent, even the original protagonist, Tang San, couldn't compare to her. At that moment, Ning Fengzhi took out an ornate treasure box from his spatial soul tool and handed it to Tian Lin. "Tian Lin, this is the reward I've prepared for you. Open it and see if you like it." Tian Lin accepted the box, and upon opening it, he found a soul bone inside. No wonder Ning Fengzhi had sent everyone else away earlier—this item was indeed extraordinarily valuable. "Tian Lin, this is a right leg bone from a 60,000-year-old soul beast, the Swift Wind Demon Wolf. It's named the 'Whistling Gale Teleportation Right Leg Bone.' Since your latest soul ring is also wind-attributed, I'd say this soul bone is perfectly suited for you," Ning Fengzhi explained with a smile. "A 60,000-year soul bone!" Tian Lin exclaimed in shock. "Uncle Ning, isn't this too valuable? I imagine even the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect doesn't have many soul bones of this level in storage, right?" "Indeed, soul bones of this level are rare even for our sect. We only have four in total. The other three are with me, Sword Douluo, and Bone Douluo," Ning Fengzhi admitted. Seeing Tian Lin's hesitation, he reassured him, "Tian Lin, there's no need to feel burdened. While soul bones are precious, their value lies in being used. Only then can they truly shine." Ning Fengzhi truly lived up to his reputation as a bold and generous sect master. He spared no expense in rewarding those who contributed to the sect. Moreover, unlike soul rings, soul bones could be reclaimed. To put it bluntly, when Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo eventually passed away, their soul bones would still return to the sect. For the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, there was no loss at all. "Tian Lin, accept it. Didn't you also prepare some gifts for us? Let's see what they are," Chen Xin interjected, easing the awkward atmosphere. Hearing this, Tian Lin no longer hesitated and accepted Ning Fengzhi's reward. However, his return gifts were even more valuable—so valuable that they surpassed the worth of the soul bone. "Yes, Master. The gifts I've prepared for you are just like those I gave to that old monster, Dugu Bo. However, the ones I brought for you are consumable treasures that can greatly enhance your soul power and innate talent." As he spoke, Tian Lin retrieved several immortal herbs and divine pills from his Hundred Treasures Pouch. When you have good things, of course, you share them with your family first. "Elder Yin, this Nine-Gold Purple Pill is for you," Tian Lin said, handing the pill to Elder Yin. Elder Yin was surprised. "Even I get a gift? Haha, you're so thoughtful, Tian Lin. What does this pill do?" "It stabilizes your foundation, purifies your soul power, and breaks through bottlenecks. Elder Yin, I've heard that you've been stuck at Rank 89 for over a decade with no progress. This pill might help you take that final step," Tian Lin said, shocking everyone present. Elder Yin was utterly stunned. "Are you saying that this tiny pill can help me break through to the Title Douluo realm?" Elder Yin asked, his voice trembling. "Old Eagle, what are you waiting for? I trust Tian Lin wouldn't lie about something like this. Your decades-long obsession can end today. Don't hesitate!" Chen Xin urged. Snapping out of his daze, Elder Yin no longer hesitated. He swallowed the pill in one gulp and began circulating his soul power to absorb its overwhelming medicinal essence. This process would take some time, so Tian Lin turned to Bone Douluo with the next gift. "Elder Bone, this is the Earth Dragon Gold Gourd, an earth-attributed immortal herb. Your martial soul is the Bone Dragon, which is both dragon-type and dual-attribute with darkness and earth. This is perfectly suited for you." Bone Douluo was renowned as a Title Douluo with eerie attacks and formidable defense. These traits stemmed from his dual attributes of darkness and earth. The Earth Dragon Gold Gourd would greatly enhance his earth attribute, making his defense unmatched. He might even become the strongest defensive Title Douluo on the continent. "Thank you, Tian Lin. From now on, don't call me Elder Bone—it sounds too distant. Just call me Grandpa Bone like Rongrong does," Bone Douluo said with a kind smile. Though his withered face made his smile look somewhat unsettling, Tian Lin wasn't frightened in the slightest. "Alright, Grandpa Bone." Pleased with the response, Bone Douluo nodded and stepped aside to consume the herb and absorb its medicinal essence. Tian Lin then continued, addressing Ning Fengzhi, Ning Rongrong, and Chen Xin. "Uncle Ning, Rongrong, and Master, these are the gifts I've prepared for you: Heaven Mending Pills for Uncle Ning and Rongrong, and the Primal Chaos Immortal Grass for Master." "The Heaven Mending Pill is crafted with the Qiluo Tulip as its base. Known as the most luxurious divine pill in existence, it can remedy congenital deficiencies and grant the user a perfect physique. I believe that after taking this, Uncle Ning and Rongrong's Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagodas will evolve into Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagodas." "As for Master's Primal Chaos Immortal Grass, unlike the others, it doesn't purify soul power, strengthen attributes, or evolve martial souls. Its sole function is to maximize soul power. Master, you've told me before that while mastering techniques is important for a soul master, increasing soul power is the foundation. After consuming this, I believe your level won't be below Rank 98!" Tian Lin's words left everyone speechless. Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin were utterly stunned, especially Ning Fengzhi. He had only given Tian Lin a single 60,000-year soul bone, but Tian Lin's return gifts were so overwhelmingly generous. Agreeing to let Tian Lin study medicine and poisons with Dugu Bo had been the right decision. Who would've thought that a single trip would yield treasures of such caliber? Ning Fengzhi even began to consider giving Tian Lin the other 10,000-year soul bone he possessed and asking him, "Do you have any more of these gifts?"
