Chapter 86: No Need (Please provide your first subscription!)

Very quickly, Ning Feiliu parted ways with Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan.

Next, Dugu Bo was going to take Dugu Yan back to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to absorb the ten-thousand-year Nether Demon Wolf right leg bone they had just won at auction.

After cautiously finding an empty corner, taking off his mask and putting it back into his Soul Guidance Device, and even changing his outer garment.

Only then did Ning Feiliu dare to reappear on the main street.

Recalling the topic from just now, why did he not reveal his current talent to Ning Fengzhi, even after successfully recasting his martial soul?

It was likely because he did not trust Ning Fengzhi, and was also somewhat disappointed in Ning Fengzhi.

In Ning Feiliu's heart, Ning Fengzhi's current performance was merely passable.

But being merely passable, in the end, still did not make Ning Feiliu completely satisfied.

During the last conflict between Ning Feiliu and Ning Rongrong, Ning Fengzhi did not completely favor Ning Rongrong; he did impose a certain punishment on Ning Rongrong.

In certain matters, Ning Fengzhi acted correctly, enough to make Ning Feiliu or everyone in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect feel satisfied.

But as a father, he was completely unqualified.

But this was not because Ning Rongrong was more well-behaved, but because she had more talent, and more...

For example, Ning Feiliu's mother in his previous life favored him slightly while she was alive because he was younger than his sister.

Let Ning Fengzhi continue to think he is an incompetent and mediocre son.

But because his father preferred girls, he favored his sister more.

He did not want any more help from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, nor did he want to owe any more unnecessary "favors."

So there was no need to reveal anything about himself to make Ning Fengzhi change his opinion.

So he "cherished" her more.

He did not value the few brothers with poorer talent, including Ning Feiliu; one could even say he ignored them.

Ning Feiliu returned to the medical clinic and began his daily, calm work as Doctor Ning.

"Value."

But did Ning Feiliu really need this kind of "cherishing" from Ning Fengzhi?

It was just like how Ning Fengzhi was a merchant, and the six of them children were all commodities with marked prices; Ning Rongrong was more expensive because her talent was higher.

It is very normal for parents to have some bias toward children with different talents and personalities.

If Ning Feiliu were to reveal his identity and his talent now.

Then Ning Fengzhi would "cherish" Ning Feiliu a bit more.

Is there really any need for this kind of "cherishing" that treats people like commodities and is full of self-interest?

Ning Feiliu is not a child; he does not need this kind of "cherishing" full of self-interest.

But one cannot be too biased; Ning Feiliu's parents in his previous life would not be too biased, and could basically achieve general fairness.

The current him does not need "cherishing," nor does he need the power of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect; he can eventually become the strongest in this world all on his own.

But Ning Fengzhi is not like that; his heart is always too biased.

This kind of difference and favoritism is human nature; people are all like this, and you will unconsciously cherish the one you like more.

The next day, after a night and early morning of cultivation, Ning Feiliu felt he had gotten much closer to level 34 soul power.

The Moonlight Breathing Method, combined with the Sunlight Breathing Method—which, after absorbing the Blazing Apricot Delicate, allowed him to ignore the pain of the sun's fire burning his body—caused his cultivation speed to show a dual, rapid increase.

It's just that...

The mass of solar Destructive Power gathered by the Sunlight Breathing Method was accumulating and growing ever stronger within his body.

His body could not absorb this power filled with destruction the way it absorbed the gentle healing power of moonlight.

If this continues to accumulate, it will sooner or later spiral out of control.

"I have to find a way to use it up," Ning Feiliu said, feeling that things were not looking good.

According to his previous assumptions, there were only two ways to use up this Destructive Power.

One was to use it directly as a means of attack when fighting others.

But this Destructive Power gave Ning Feiliu a faint feeling of being difficult to control; it was fine when it first started accumulating in his body.

Now, the more he cultivated and the more Destructive Power accumulated, the more terrifying its power felt.

It was as if, if it landed on someone else, it would blast a giant hole right through them.

After all, it was the purest Destructive Power refined from the sun; it was hard to say if it could actually kill someone.

But Ning Feiliu was just participating in an ordinary Spirit Fighting Battle; it really hadn't reached the point of killing anyone.

Of course, he could specifically go participate in a Spirit Fighting Battle that decided both victory and life-or-death, or release it into an empty space.

But that would be too wasteful.

Adhering to a style of thrift and not wasting, Ning Feiliu was more inclined toward the second method of use.

The second method, naturally, was to use it to make a Soul Guidance Device.

And this purest solar Destructive Power could be used to try and forge treasures like 【Bami's Cinder】 or 【Burning Gem】 from the legacy craftsmanship bestowed by Ornn.

"Let's try a regular Soul Guidance Device first; when I find rare metals suitable for carrying fire-attribute energy in the future, I'll try this master-craftsman technique from Ornn of the other world," Ning Feiliu said, shaking his head.

His cheat was good in every way, except for this one point.

That was that 99% of the knowledge of things from the Valoran World was different from the things native to the Douluo Continent.

The knowledge and experience he obtained could not be used like Tang San's; Tang San's knowledge from his previous life was perfectly applicable in this one.

Whereas Ning Feiliu needed to repeatedly experiment to confirm that a medicinal herb had such-and-such a component before it could be used to make the corresponding Alchemy Potion.

Because of this, he highly suspected that Tang San's previous life was one of the countless planes under the Douluo God Realm, which was why Tang San's previous life could "actually be so similar" to the Douluo Continent world.

And whether Tang San's transmigration was really planned by that old geezer, the Asura God, with the goal of passing on his God Position and then running off.

Ning Feiliu shook his head; these were not things he could think about right now.

Moreover, even if Tang San's transmigration was truly orchestrated by that old bastard, the Asura God, he would not necessarily fear Tang San.

After all, his path might not necessarily intersect with Tang San's, even if Tang San were to back Ning Rongrong in the future.

But Ning Feiliu had absolutely no intention of vying for Ning Rongrong's position.

"It is time to go to the Soul Fighting Arena to continue grinding tasks," Ning Feiliu thought to himself.

So, he prepared to set off for the Soul Fighting Arena.

But just at this moment...

"Little Feiliu~"

It was Dugu Yan.

Dugu Yan's aura seemed to have grown stronger by another fraction, and she stood before Ning Feiliu with a radiant smile.

"Sister Yan, have you finished absorbing the soul bone?" Ning Feiliu said with a smile.

"Indeed," Dugu Yan said joyfully, "After I absorbed that ten-thousand-year Nether Demon Wolf Right Leg Spirit Bone, my speed and the strength of my right leg were both significantly enhanced, and it also granted me a decent soul bone skill—Nether Slash, which allows me to condense a soul power strike using my right leg."

Although a soul bone skill will strengthen or weaken accordingly depending on the Spirit Master who absorbs the soul bone.

For example, in the original plot, although Tang San absorbed Xiao Wu's soul bone, the soul bone skill he used as a mere Soul Emperor still could not contend with a Title Douluo.

Therefore, by the same logic, although Dugu Yan absorbed a ten-thousand-year Nether Demon Wolf Right Leg Spirit Bone, the soul bone skill should not reach the power of a ten-thousand-year skill.

However, it should still be stronger than the power of an average thousand-year soul skill.

"Congratulations, Sister Yan," Ning Feiliu said with a smile, "You absorbed a soul bone and even gained a powerful soul bone skill."

In fact, the greatest function of this soul bone for Dugu Yan was to force the toxins within her body into the soul bone, thereby ensuring her life remained secure.

However, after the toxins are forced into the soul bone, her cultivation will definitely rise to a higher level.
