Chapter 146: Invitation

Although the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect has never obtained the most precious Dragon Pill, they have accumulated no small amount of things like Dragon Bone and Dragon Scale.

If a Dragon Pill were useful, Ning Fengzhi would not mind dispatching Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect disciples to conduct a carpet-search of the entire continent for the places where giant dragons fell, in order to attempt to obtain a Dragon Pill.

If there were news of a True Dragon Spirit Beast, that would be when the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's Dragon Slaying Squad sets out.

As for things like Immortal Herbs, Ning Fengzhi has indeed heard of them; it is said that an ancestor of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect once obtained one, but "Immortal Herb" is a general concept, a collective term for a large pile of precious medicinal herbs.

Even if one is collected, it is not necessarily suitable for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.

It is said that five or six hundred years ago, an ancestor did indeed find a fire-attribute rarity in a gathering area of fire-attribute Spirit Beasts during their training.

Then, they mobilized the sect's power to clear out that Spirit Beast gathering place, and in order to evolve their martial soul, they consumed the Immortal Herb, resulting in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect losing a Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Spirit Master and an Immortal Herb of the fire attribute.

Ning Fengzhi can only say to leave it to fate and collect them as much as possible.

But even if the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is willing to spend money, whether they can buy one depends on luck.

As for an illustrated guide to Immortal Herbs or records of their uses, as long as such things exist on the continent, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect can find information on them.

That is the confidence of those with "money power."

Having gained a rough understanding of the matter, Ning Fengzhi nodded.

At this very moment, the auction outside had long since ended.

The administrator was already knocking on the door of Ning Fengzhi's room, beginning to inquire about the auction items.

Ning Fengzhi gave a slight bow to Zhou Heng to express his gratitude.

"If young friend Zhou Heng does not mind, after things are finished in a moment, would you care to come to my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect for a visit? Just now, young friend Zhou Heng purchased quite a few precious ores."

"And my sect happens to have many rare items of this type."

"If you do not mind, you are very welcome to come to my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect for a look; everything my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect possesses will surely be able to satisfy your needs."

Ning Fengzhi was not bragging; it was indeed the truth. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda is born with the ability to appraise treasures, and it is especially outstanding in finding ores and rare metals.

Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect disciples have developed mining industries all over the continent, and for a thousand years, they have collected countless precious ores for the sect, among which there are even some things that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect itself cannot identify.

It can be said that the metal industry on the continent is a joke to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. Most of the rare ores that flow out onto the continent are actually released by the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect voluntarily, and the small remaining portion is merely the dregs that slipped through the sect's fingers.

Ores that are very precious and rare in the Blacksmith's Association are counted by the ton in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's treasury.

Since Zhou Heng showed an interest in collecting rare ores and for some reason appeared together with Lou Gao.

Then Ning Fengzhi did not mind opening his Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's inventory slightly to give away some ores that were not of much use anyway.

"Many thanks, Uncle Ning. I will certainly pay a visit another day."

After exchanging greetings, Ning Fengzhi took Ning Rongrong and the two Title Douluo of Sword and Bone back to his room, and the spatial rift that had been maintained closed once again, leaving only Zhou Heng and Lou Gao behind.

At this moment, looking at Zhou Heng, who remained calm and composed, Lou Gao felt nothing but profound admiration.

Usually, he could not even see the Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and when meeting the two Title Douluo, he would only have the role of standing to the side and bowing; how could it be like today, being able to sit in a room and converse with such big figures?

As for the matter of a transaction between Zhou Heng and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Lou Gao had not even dared to think about it before.

If his previous admiration for Zhou Heng was only for his understanding of metal casting, then now, Lou Gao's admiration for Zhou Heng came from every aspect.

Not long after, the auction staff knocked on the door of Zhou Heng's room and began to speak about the auction items.

Zhou Heng had bid on three items; the Dragon Blood Stone and Dragon Scale Stone were worth 430,000, and the Earth Vein Flame Product was worth 550,000.

Together, it was 980,000 Gold Soul Coins, which did not even amount to a fraction of the last three auction items.

This amount of money was absolutely no problem for Zhou Heng; he casually tossed out a gold card, and the staff member nodded and bowed before going down to confirm.

Before long, they returned to the room with the three auction items and the remaining Gold Soul Coins.

The Gold Soul Coins existed in the form of a gold coin card, which Zhou Heng glanced at before casually putting it back into his Ruyi Hundred Treasure Pouch.

As for the Dragon Scale Stone, Dragon Blood Stone, and Earth Vein Flame Crystal, they were placed by Zhou Heng on the table in the room.

At this moment, although the auction had ended, the auction house had not yet dispersed.

As the Heaven Dou Royal Auction House, after the auction ends, the auction house provides a banquet for all the guests.

It is both a matter of etiquette and a way to provide a social platform for the nobles and Spirit Masters participating in the auction.

Some people attended the banquet, while others left in a hurry; Zhou Heng simply chose to stay in the room and study his auction items.

"The soul power is abundant, and much of the life force has been lost over the long passage of time, but the remaining portion has deposited inside in another form; the quality is not bad."

After looking at the Dragon Scale Stone and Dragon Blood Stone and discovering that these things were not as magical as he had imagined, Zhou Heng shifted his attention to the Earth Vein Flame Crystal.

At this moment, Lou Gao had long since reached out to carefully stroke every corner of the Earth Vein Flame Crystal, using all his sensory abilities to feel the warmth within the Earth Vein Flame Crystal.

Zhou Heng placed his hand on it, using his spiritual power and his perception of Spirit.

Within that half-person-tall Earth Vein Flame Product, Zhou Heng felt the earth power that had been deposited for tens of thousands of years and the nearly materialized flame power.

Although under the influence of the earth power, this powerful flame energy had become very stable and was constrained into a crystalline form.

But once triggered, the power that would erupt from it would exceed even the Ninth Soul Skill of the vast majority of Title Douluo.

It was equivalent to a natural Level 9 Soul Guidance Cannonball.

Of course, this refers to the situation where the power within the Earth Vein Flame Product is triggered all at once using the correct method.

If the method is incorrect, the power of the Earth Vein Flame Crystal would only be wasted in vain.

It is just that the current Douluo Continent clearly lacks this correct triggering technology; otherwise, the price of this piece of Earth Vein Flame Crystal would have to have at least one more zero added to the end.

If he ever has the opportunity to go to the future Sun Moon Continent, Zhou Heng will certainly go to collect the manufacturing methods for Soul Guidance Devices; unique technology might just be of some help to him in the future.
