Chapter 224 The King of the World and the Claw of the Bone Dragon
Shrek City South City.
The wide and clean streets are crowded with people, and there are vendors selling various specialty products everywhere. Noisy and lively sounds can be heard all the time.
Shrek City is located between the three empires that originally belonged to the Douluo Continent, and its commerce is highly developed.
Every year when the New Year approaches and the next spring begins, it is always the most lively time in Shrek City.
And not just for ordinary people.
The major auction houses in the city will auction various treasures collected during this year.
Similar to elixirs, medicinal materials, customized soul rings, various precious rare metals and soul guides, and even soul bones.
All are excellent products.
Naturally, it also attracted the patronage of those soul masters and soul engineers.
Two young girls with extremely outstanding appearance and temperament were walking through the crowd in a friendly manner. It was Xu Zihuang and Ning Tian who came from Shrek Academy.
Today, Xu Zihuang is wearing a close-fitting purple-gold costume. The costume is mainly vine purple, with exquisite patterns of exotic plants and flowers embroidered with gold threads. There is a gentle smile in his deep purple eyes, but
There is an indescribable nobility.
Ning Tian, who was holding Xu Zihuang's arm, was wearing a white-gold dress with the same color as her hair, which highlighted her tall and graceful figure. There was a faint smile on her pretty face.
The two walked together and looked extremely well-matched.
The dense crowd did not have any impact on the two of them, because once anyone was about to touch them, they would be bounced away by an invisible soft soul power.
Amidst the bustle of people, the place where the two of them were seemed to be a pure land isolated from the world.
Ning Tian rested his head on Xu Zihuang's shoulder, biting his lips gently, his aqua eyes filled with anticipation and happiness.
Since childhood, she has been the only daughter of the leader of the Nine Treasure Glazed Sect.
The Nine Treasure Glazed Sect once encountered a catastrophe ten thousand years ago and was almost completely destroyed. Relying on the foundation accumulated in the past and ten thousand years of development, and relying on the power of the mainland's number one auxiliary weapon Wuhun, it has once again stood firm on the mainland.
, becoming one of the top soul master sects at that time.
But as a direct descendant of the sect master, she is also a girl. From childhood to adulthood, her life has been monotonous and boring. In her life, there is only practice, study, study, practice.
It was in such a boring life, relying on her own talent and hard work, as well as the sect's resources. She broke through to the soul master when she was eleven years old, breaking the fastest breakthrough to the soul master in the Jiubao Glazed Sect.
record. This is something that even the ancestor Ning Rongrong who evolved the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda's martial spirit into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda has never done.
After entering Shrek Academy as a well-deserved daughter of heaven, she originally thought she was the strongest among her peers, but she met the equally talented Dai Huabin, Xie Huanyue, and others who were far above their peers.
Jade Tianhuang.
Among the four new soul masters that year, she was still outstanding. But that was compared to Dai Huabin and Xie Huanyue. Although she was only an auxiliary soul master, she thought she would not be worse than these two.
In fact, this is also true. With the powerful assistance of her Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Spirit, the team she led once defeated Xie Huanyue's team head-on in the semi-finals.
However, in front of Yu Tianhuang, her light was completely obscured. It was like the insurmountable gap between Yinghuo and Haoyue.
Ning Tian still clearly remembers the shock when she witnessed Yu Tianhuang possessing three purple soul rings and defeating Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu's martial soul fusion skill Netherworld White Tiger head-on.
Yu Tianhuang was so outstanding that even she, the sweet girl of heaven, felt depressed.
She suddenly felt that no matter how hard she tried, it was useless and she could never catch up with Yu Tianhuang. At this time, she thought of another possibility, which was also another hope that her family had placed on her.
As the top auxiliary sect in the world, the Nine Treasure Glazed Sect, her family has always had many powerful soul masters join them.
As the only daughter of the contemporary sect master and the most outstanding direct descendant of the younger generation, Ning Tian knew that the most important thing in his life was to find a guardian who could accompany him throughout his life one day.
Whether this person is strong or not is not only related to his status within the sect and whether he can successfully inherit the position of the sect leader, but also to the future of the Nine Treasure Glazed Sect.
While she enjoys various privileges within the sect, she also needs to bear heavier responsibilities.
Driven by interests and pressure, she began to put aside her own reserve, regardless of the girl's shyness, and actively chose to contact Yu Tianhuang.
However, while getting along with Yu Tianhuang, she fell into it unconsciously. Yu Tianhuang was like a dazzling golden sun, deeply attracting her all the time.
Because of the existence of Yu Tianhuang, Ning Tian's originally monotonous life has gained a bit more color. It is no longer just as a tool for cultivating under heavy pressure, but as a person, an ordinary person.
girl.
She has experienced shyness, joy, anxiety, joy and other emotions that she has never experienced before. In less than three years, her life has been more exciting than her previous eleven years.
In the past three years, she has actually forgotten her identity and responsibilities more often. Perhaps her motives for contacting Yu Tianhuang from the beginning were impure, but the relationship was pure and sincere, truly born from the heart.
And today, after they meet the elder in the family, the relationship between them will become stronger.
She also believed that Yu Tianhuang would definitely be recognized by the elder.
"Why are you distracted?" Xu Zihuang stopped and looked sideways and gently at Ning Tian, who was still pulling him forward.
"We've arrived."
"I'm thinking about something." Ning Tian raised his head with a blushing face, met Xu Zihuang's eyes, and replied subconsciously.
In front of the two people, there is a huge building with a height of nearly fifty meters. The building itself covers a large area, has a magnificent appearance, and takes the shape of a nine-story pagoda. The decoration can be described as extremely luxurious.
The Jubao Pavilion that Xu Zihuang and Ning Tian went to was already very luxurious. But compared with the nine-story pagoda in front of them, it was not at the same level.
Moreover, this is the central area of the southern city where Shrek City has the most prosperous business. It is no exaggeration to say that every inch of land is valuable. And the area of this nine-story pagoda-like building is almost five times that of the Treasure Pavilion. It can be seen that
His amazing background and financial resources.
This nine-story pagoda is called Jiubao Pavilion, and the background behind it is the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect. Jiubao Pavilions are located in cities above the main city level of the three major empires in Douluo Continent. Because of the special features of Shrek City,
The Nine Treasure Pavilion set up by the Nine Treasure Glazed Sect in Shrek City and the Nine Treasure Pavilion in the imperial capitals of the three major empires are both the highest-scale existences.
Jiubao Pavilion collects and sells various heavenly and earthly treasures, elixirs, precious materials from soul beasts, rare metals, soul guides, and even soul bones often appear.
It has its own auction house and other trading platforms. The facilities inside are extremely complete, and even include several restaurants and leisure areas.
Jiubao Pavilion's annual revenue is absolutely an astronomical figure.
The foundation of the Nine Treasure Glazed Sect is deeper than imagined.
In the past year and a half, Ning Tian has brought Xu Zihuang to the restaurant in Jiubao Pavilion for dinner several times. Ning Tian's elder will also meet them here.
But today, Jiubao Pavilion is very deserted. The hall on the first floor, which used to be very lively, is empty. Only two girls in white long skirts are guarding the door. When Xu Zihuang and Ning Tian came to the door, they respectfully
He bent down and did not interrupt the conversation between Xu Zihuang and Ning Tian.
It wasn't until the two of them looked this way that the two girls in white skirts stepped forward to salute.
"Miss, Master Yu."
Ning Tian returned to his usual calm demeanor and nodded slightly.
"Take us to see Grandpa."
The person Ning Tian calls his great-grandfather is the elder in Ning Tian's family who wants to meet Xu Zihuang. Along the way, Ning Tian introduces many things about the great-grandfather to Xu Zihuang.
"Yes, miss."
The two girls in white skirts quickly led the way, leading them to the center of the hall on the first floor of Jiubao Pavilion, in front of a huge elevator driven by soul power.
This elevator is arc-shaped, and its exterior is made of crystal yellow crystals and special rare metals. It connects from the lobby on the first floor to every floor of the Jiubao Pavilion. It is full of metallic texture.
But not everyone has permission to enter, especially the top floor, which is never open to outsiders.
One of the girls in the white dress pressed a few times on the crystal yellow crystal, and a rich white light flashed. The crystal yellow arc-shaped crystal that originally seemed to fit tightly, revealed a huge gap between the opening and closing.
Xu Zihuang and Ning Tian walked into the elevator, and another girl in a white dress stretched out her right hand and placed it on the metal pillar next to it to inject soul power.
The elevator immediately rose slowly. It was surrounded by translucent yellow crystals, but it was impossible to see the outside situation. It was obviously specially treated. In the sealed space, there were several soul lamps blooming with bright brilliance.
.The halo of light circulated, reflecting into Ning Tian's shining eyes.
Xu Zihuang took the initiative to hold one of her hands, while Ning Tian smiled sweetly at him, his eyes full of affection.
The crystal door of the elevator opened. The two of them got out of the elevator, and after passing through a short passage on a familiar road, their eyes suddenly opened up.
This is a circular living room that seems to stand in mid-air, with an area of at least two hundred square meters. It is surrounded by amethyst floor-to-ceiling windows, which provides excellent lighting and a wide view. The column wrapping the elevator supports this space.
Various exquisite relief murals are hung. There are also several rare and exotic flowers dotted in the corners. A delicate fragrance lingers in the air.
It's a bit like an enlarged and luxurious version of the VIP room at the original Starlight Auction House, even more luxurious.
And at this moment, Xu Zihuang suddenly noticed something. While protecting Ning Tian behind him, his noble deep purple eyes instantly turned into a dull golden color, three purple, two black, and five soul rings.
It also rises from under your feet.
With a golden light in his eyes, he took a step forward with his left foot, clenched his right hand into a fist and punched forward plainly.
However, at this moment, his right fist turned completely purple-gold. A kind of solid, thick, domineering purple-gold color, and filled with the aura of being alone in the sky and the earth, overlooking all living beings.
As if it had been rehearsed beforehand, when he punched out his right fist, a thin but extremely thick hand protruded from the void and collided with his right fist.
Centered around the place where the two collided, the space seemed to have collapsed. Everything became distorted and unreal.
In the next moment, the skinny broad palm trembled as if it had been electrocuted. Then, enveloped in the thick black airflow, it transformed into a huge dragon claw. It was the same as the ordinary dragon-type martial soul owner's martial soul. This dragon claw is different from the other dragon claws. This dragon claw has no muscles and scales, but is completely composed of pitch black bones. But its aura seems to be no worse than that of a real giant dragon.
An old voice of praise filled with shock also sounded in the void.
"What a King Lin Tianxia, what a Ultimate Thunder. To be able to fuse the two together, no wonder both Mu En and Noumenon Sect's Poison Immortal value you so much."
The rich dark air spread out and gradually formed a strange dark door, giving people a cold and dead feeling. The claws of the bone dragon as black as ink came out of this dark door. Exploded out.
Immediately afterwards, a gray-haired old man walked out. The old man's height was definitely more than two meters. It was not that his muscles were extremely swollen, but his whole body had a large frame. His white hair was combed behind him. He was meticulous and had deep-set eye sockets, but his black eyes were sparkling with light. He lowered his head and glanced at his right hand, which had turned into a claw of a bone dragon, and then his eyes were fixed on Xu Zihuang's body.
As an auxiliary soul master, Ning Tian couldn't see the secret behind the fist-palm exchange just now, but from Grandpa's facial expression, she knew clearly that Yu Tianhuang's performance was definitely approved by Grandpa.
I was even more shocked.
No matter how strong Yu Tianhuang was, he was only a Soul King, but he could actually force Grandpa Tai to use his martial soul. This was simply unbelievable to her. Moreover, Grandpa Grandpa's last words also made him particularly concerned.
The ultimate thunder?
In contrast, Xu Zihuang acted very calmly. He retracted his right fist and bowed to the old man. His previous aura of dominating the world also collapsed.
"Hello, senior, I was fusing my fifth soul ring some time ago, so I didn't come to visit in time. Please forgive me."
"I'm not unreasonable, but I don't have that much airs. Come and sit down." The old man smiled slightly and was even more satisfied with Yu Tianhuang. Unlike his weird martial arts spirit and methods, his temperament was very kind to others. , very similar to Mr. Mu. The look he looked at Ning Tian was full of endearment.
"Tian'er, come here too."
After saying that, he turned around and sat down on the sofa not far away.
"Yes, Grandpa." Ning Tian, who was full of doubts, looked at Xu Zihuang and sat on the sofa opposite the old man.
