Douluo: Phoenix God Descends, Emperor Flame Burns the Sky

Chapter 216 Fifty Thousand Year Netherworld Sparrow Soul Bone; Fire Storage Pouch
Back to Tiandou City.

Lin Xiao went to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

Sword Douluo shared some of his swordsmanship insights from over the years with Lin Xiao and personally guided Lin Xiao in sword practice. Sword Douluo, who had never taken on a disciple before, thoroughly enjoyed being a teacher.

Lin Xiao's learning speed was so fast that he once thought he was born to be a teacher, so much so that he enthusiastically gave guidance to several other sword spirit masters in the sect.

In the end, he was so angry that he almost "cleaned house".

He then realized:

It turns out that not everyone can grasp things as quickly as Lin Xiao. Just like Lin Xiao's case of comprehending the essence of swordsmanship before even learning how to use it, it was unprecedented.

Teaching Lin Xiao might not be a good thing. At the very least, having gotten used to the delicacies of the gods, he might find himself somewhat disdainful of even the finest foods in the future.

While Lin Xiao was practicing his swordplay, Ning Fengzhi and Bone Douluo watched silently from the side.

Ning Fengzhi clearly had something to discuss with Lin Xiao, but for the dignified Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and a Super Douluo to willingly wait for a mere youth, few would believe it if word got out.

The itchy teeth caused by Ficus acid:
"Sect Master, look at the old swordsman's face. He's never this diligent in teaching Lin Xiao. He mostly lets Lin Xiao figure things out on his own."

"But today he's been watching me closely, clearly knowing I was coming, and he's doing this on purpose in front of me!"

"I really can't stand his attitude!"

Ning Fengzhi said with a smile:
"Thanks to Uncle Jian, with his connection, Lin Xiao's relationship with our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and Rongrong will be even closer..."

Gu Rong: “…”

He suddenly realized that he had confided in the wrong person.

The sect leader is with the old swordsman!

Bone Douluo suddenly felt a profound loneliness, just as people's joys and sorrows are not shared.

He even felt a little resentful towards his own martial spirit.

Why is it a bone dragon and not a bone phoenix?
After Lin Xiao finished practicing his swordsmanship, Ning Fengzhi rushed up to him at the perfect moment, saying, "Nephew Lin Xiao, your Uncle Sword really cares about your disciple!"

Because Lin Xiao has already become a disciple of Ye Qingxian and Dugu Bo.

Although he was not formally accepted as a disciple, and it was more of a formality to appease the outside world, this meant that Lin Xiao was only Sword Douluo's nominal disciple, not his direct disciple.

Sword Douluo was eager to personally teach him, but not knowing Dugu Bo and Ye Qingxian's attitudes, he couldn't push his luck.

The fact that the two of them allowed him to teach Lin Xiao was already a huge concession. Moreover, Sword Douluo knew that his connection with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was too deep, making it unsuitable for him to accept Lin Xiao as his personal disciple.

Lin Xiao sheathed his sword and smiled at Ning Fengzhi:

"Thanks to the teacher's guidance, I have benefited greatly."

With his swordsmanship reaching a state of perfection, even the slightest hints from Sword Douluo could lead to significant progress for Lin Xiao, making the training process incredibly enjoyable.

Ning Fengzhi exchanged a few pleasantries with Lin Xiao, but didn't waste any more time. Instead, he invited Lin Xiao to sit down in the pavilion.

He then announced the good news:
"Nephew, everything you asked me to keep an eye out for has been taken care of."

"The Chamber of Commerce searched far and wide and found traces of three active volcanoes: one in the southern part of the Heaven Dou Empire, one in the territory of the Star Luo Empire, and the third in the far north."

"I've brought a detailed map, I'll give it to you later."

Lin Xiao asked in surprise:
"Are there active volcanoes in the far north?"

After saying this, Lin Xiao realized that he had made a foolish mistake.

The formation of volcanoes and crustal movements are related to underground magma activity, but have nothing to do with climate, especially since this is a fantasy world.
Ning Fengzhi laughed heartily.

"Don't worry, my dear nephew, why would I tell you if it wasn't definite news?"

Since Ning Rongrong's martial soul evolved into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, Ning Fengzhi has started calling Lin Xiao "nephew," implying that he considers Lin Xiao as family.

He repeatedly expressed his desire to matchmake Lin Xiao and Ning Rongrong, but Lin Xiao simply ignored him.

He's too young to be in a hurry to fall in love; besides, it's hard for him to feel any attraction to Ning Rongrong and Lin Xiao.

Why did he adopt the role of a stern father from the very beginning?
Ning Fengzhi took out three scrolls and two boxes from his storage soul guide.

"These three scrolls are detailed maps of the active volcano's location. As for these two boxes, one contains the right leg bone of the Ten Thousand Year Netherworld Sparrow, and the other contains a rather peculiar fire-attribute soul tool."

"This fire-attribute soul tool should be an ancient soul tool, but its specific function is unknown. It is only known that it seems to be able to absorb and release flames, and no other uses have been found yet."

Ning Fengzhi probably also felt that this soul tool was too useless.

He immediately felt somewhat ashamed and said:
"Soul tools are extremely rare, and soul tools with specific attributes are even rarer. Due to time constraints, this is the only one I have been able to find for now."

"As for soul bones... there are some of them that are a thousand or a hundred years old. They might be very precious to ordinary soul masters, but I can't bear to give them to my nephew!"

Lin Xiao knew that Ning Fengzhi had already done a very good job.

If the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School had not been the wealthiest sect on the continent, and if its merchant guild had not spread throughout the continent and even the distant seas, Ning Fengzhi would not have been able to gather anything in such a short time.

Lin Xiao encouraged him:
"Uncle Ning, you're too kind. I'm the one who should feel ashamed."

Ning Fengzhi shook his head, "Nephew, why be so modest?"

"Give me some more time, and I will do my best to help you find cultivation resources. I will also instruct my subordinates to keep an eye out for any suitable treasures for you, my dear nephew."

Lin Xiao did not refuse.

What he wanted was for Ning Fengzhi to get on the right track.

Otherwise, who will play with you?

……

Ye's house.

Lin Xiao took out the Fire Storage Pouch and the Soul Bone of the Netherworld Sparrow's Right Leg.

This fire-storing pouch was a fire-attribute soul tool given to Lin Xiao by Ning Fengzhi. Lin Xiao tried it out and found that it could hold the pitch-black phoenix fire, the ultimate phoenix fire, and the great sun golden flame.

What's useless to others is quite useful to Lin Xiao.

After all, no one else's fire is as domineering as Lin Xiao's, and the fire storage bag has a considerable capacity. If it is used in conjunction with the Flame Burst, it can be used as a missile if it encounters a strong enemy.

As for the Netherworld Sparrow's right leg bone...

This brings us to the Netherworld Sparrow, a soul beast that also possesses the bloodline of the phoenix. Although it is not as powerful as the Crimson Demon Azure Kite or the Weaving Fire Red Phoenix, it is still a formidable force in the world of soul beasts.

The most distinctive feature of the Netherworld Sparrow is its Netherworld Fire, which possesses sticky and devouring properties, much like the Dark Phoenix Fire.

I wonder what kind of soul bone skills it possesses?

Lin Xiao opened the box and discovered that the right leg bone of the Netherworld Sparrow was actually quite old!

With a lifespan of 50,000 years, it would be considered a valuable inheritance even among the top three sects. Ning Fengzhi's investment this time is quite substantial.

And they even keep saying it's a ten-thousand-year-old soul bone...

Wow, they even know how to create little surprises.

"I have to say, if I absorb this soul bone and then cultivate with Bing'er for a while to squeeze out all the Yin energy she has accumulated during this time, I estimate I'll actually reach around level fifty."

Lin Xiao was quite curious about what the skills of the Netherworld Sparrow Soul Bone were.

He immediately sat cross-legged on the ground and began to absorb the nutrients.
