Douluo Dalu: 9 Treasure Sword

"...and this is what happened" finish mama {without saying anything of the month of no food or sleep}.

"So are you completely fine mama, without any hidden damage?" I asked. "I'm completely fine, have a little trust in your mother. Oh, and watch this" She answer manifesting all her spirit rings, 9 rings being 1 yellow, 2 purple, 5 blacks and 1 red controlling the spirit pressure so it didn't affect us.

"It's over the ideal configuration!" I, my papa and grandpas say at the same time. I look to papa strangely (Didn't they know her configuration?). To my look my papa answer in low voice "I'll explain later".

My mama with a look of pride and puffing his c.h.e.s.t says "Yep! After absorbing the ring my spirit evolved gaining true fire aging the rings that has fire spirit abilities changing their colors and not only this"she does a dramatic pause "I am rank 93. So triple gain!". My sister ask with a beaming voice taking advantage of our shock "What abilities you gained?". "Like any 100.000 years old ring a gain two abilities apart of the evolution of true fire a gain area of effect like domain rising the temperature of the area and generating a lot of fire energy, increasing fire attack power 50% and reducing others elements, neutralizing any not ultimate water element not ultimate, the True Fire Garden. For the second abilities is an attack that concentrates all the fire energy of the area causing a big and potent aoe forward, Hell Ray, a good combination with the Garden" Says mama proudly.

"WOW" We all say at the same time.

"We can stop talking about me and start the most important part" my mother says "How are you Bai? Do you have some damage, some pain, anything?" she asked me rapid and nervous. "I was checked before by grandpa and the healers so there's no problem at all it only a little of stiff muscle for not moving in a lot of time. In reality, I'm better than before I sense more strength in my body and with little practice I know that I can return to optima condition." I say standing up and warming up moving my legs and arms.

"Is he alright, Maya?" Mama ask Maya, that I now perceive her presence (Wow I never sense her is like she is a quotidian object). "Physically condition is perfect, nobody will say that he stayed unconscious 1 month. His body have a great strength being very robust comparable with an attack system spirit grandmaster. I tried to check his spirit power but due to the mutation of his spirit is very difficult to analyze having no experience in this type so the best option it will be that we investigate with a spirit power detector having young master insert his energy" Maya says with a robotic voice devoid of any sentiment (like always!) while giving me a detector orb.

I take the orb and inject my spirit energy to it. The orb starts to shine showing my spirit rank. "15 rank!" My parents and grandpas say. "Hurry show us your spirit Bai" says papa with haste.

I concentrate my spirit power to my right hand and open, showing my NTGTS. Observing closely now has some changed, acquiring a more vivid red color concentrated at the first layer and being dispersed along the way having no change keeping the previous white color at the top. "It's more red, I like it more!" says my sister happily. "It's true that there's some changes, we will need to study what effect that changes produce, for now try to inject spirit power to the sword" say father.

I inject my spirit power at my spirit, I can sense that I can put more than before (maybe my spirit power has a quality growth and now is bigger), suddenly surrounding the sword appear a purple ring. I look awed at the ring asking "How is it even possible? I didn't kill any spirit beast and even less absorbing a ring of it".

"I sense some familiar fire energy from that ring, if I must say something my hypothesis was that the ring absorbing day when you chase forward me some of the spirit energy of my 100.000 years ring was absorbed by your sword, enough for your spirit to materialize a purple ring with it" says mother while having a poise of thinking with her hand turned into a punch under her chin. "How is it possible? A spirit creating his own spirit like some humanized spirit beast" I ask.

My papa interrupts "How do you know about humanized spirit beast?" he think a little and continue saying "Whatever, it's not important" (Buff, it's best not to show any special knowledge, If asked I will say that I find it in a book and that I don't remember it) "There's some case doc.u.mented of some spirits that create their own spirits they're very strange and usually not very powerful because they usually need a lot of time to grow. Usually they are spirit plants that to obtain spirit rings must grow like any other plant absorbing sunlight, nutrients and water. In your case your sword will have some kind of absorb and condensation property that in this case create the lucky chance of your ring manifestation, don't expect it to happen again. And I suppose that I combination of the extreme situation, you're mutated spirit, your previously good constitution even if it will let you absorb a 600 years ring at most and that the energy was from your mother, having you're spirit some kind of resemblance to her there's expect to be some resistance, finally Xie controlling consciously and unconsciously the ring and her spirit to not harm you, let you absorb a ring a lot more aged that your limit".

"So now I can continue absorbing the rings more aged or I must continue with the ideal configuration?" I ask. "According to Maya your constitution is of a spirit grandmaster and having a purple ring will help you to get used to its energy so if you train hard for the time you arrive at the 20 rank you can have your body prepared to absorb a ring like one 40 rank." Papa explain causing me to smile. "Don't be to complacent I'm only talking of the capacity of absorption, your spirit power will be much less than the actual rank provoking a less powerful attack and a more waste of spirit power when using it" My papa reprimand me.

"Ok, I will now try to activate my spirit ability to know what it does"I say. I stand with a typical central guard position and I activate my ring ability noticing how my spirit power is spent "STOP!" my parents and grandpas shout while I continue trying to activate it suddenly I feel a blow to my neck and feeling air headed I see the floor approaching towards me (So falling unconscious again, maybe there's a time where I'm used to it) being my last thoughs.

-3rd POV-

After Bai fell unconscious by Sword hit Fengzhi sigh saying "Good job Xin. How can he be so impulsive? Having waking up today being unconscious for I month and when he had the opportunity he tries to overwork" Fengzhi look around the room examining with spirit energy observing the unconscious Bai, a sleeping Rongrong that five minuts ago couldn't maintain awake and suddenly his expression and aura change being very serious turn to Maya and says"Maya you can withdraw now" Maya bows to all and leave the room without doing any sound.

Then Fengzhi look at Xiangxie, Sword and Bone finally saying with a very profound voice without changing his seriousness seeming having the face sculpted of ice "Having Xie broken through the titled douluo rank we have 3 at the clan with Sword being a super douluo, Xie surely will advance to be another if nothing wrong happen, Bone will need a lucky chance and with me being supporting douluo our clan gained a lot of strength. I think the best option is to hide it as a trump card for people outside the clan. Our spies detected strange movement by Spirit Hall, they're gaining a lot of power. I think that they waiting to the future, preparing for when they're powerfull enough to do an all war. Knowing that the actual supreme pontiff it's a 95 rank douluo with twin spirit I expect that they're waiting for her to arrive at the extreme douluo rank to start it. So If my calculation aren't wrong it will be in 20 years more or less. So in this time we need to prepare. I need to arrive at least at rank 89 and try to find some way to further evolve my spirit to the legendary Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, if I can't find some method we will need some of you to arrive at least to rank 98, with the supports and the location of our clan I think that having a rank 98 will be enough to defend against a rank 99. So I think that the best is to concentrate on the possibility with higher chances so the majority of resources will be for Xie, Xin is gonna to go out to travel trying to find some lucky chance and sorry Rong but you must stay here at the clan to protect it"Says Fengzhi bowing to Bone "even with the relative peace that we have now we cannot let the clan defenseless without any douluo"

"Don't worry to much I know my limits and in my previous break through I learned that will be impossible for me to step at the super douluo rank the best I can get its to rank 95." Says Bone sighing "Now I regret my rapid growth when growing up, only if my foundations will be a little better".

"We must gain strength"says Xiangxie very determinate while stroking his children hair "I don't want my children to fight to death in a war". "We need to train them you know that if we fail at the present they're our future, Bai have a lot of potential even better than you and any doc.u.mented case if I say the truth" My papa says "We will try to make a better world for them but they must grow strong for themselves if they want to survive at what will be coming. I also don't want to depend of them but my intuition says that they're the key even when Rongrong still doesn't awakened her spirit" my papa says smiling "and my intuition was right when I saw you for the first time" he finish with a sorrowful look "It's better to not say anything to them, at least for now, I want for them to be ignorant until its inevitable so the grow happy". "Yeah" says in a low both Xiangxie going to Rongrong's and Bai's room leaving them in their beds while Bai sleeps at least seeming ignorant of what will come at the future.
