"Dear group members, the seal on the Ghost Cave has loosened. I would like to ask if any of you have any materials that you would like to sell to me?" Qingzhenzi said in the group.
However, others in the group took the opportunity to inflate prices, attempting to sell their materials at high prices.
Fortunately, there were many customers in China, and they managed to gather enough materials in a short time.
Qingzhenzi began to smelt these materials, while Wang Hu assisted him.
As mysterious patterns unfolded, a powerful suppressive force began to subdue the evil spirits.
The moment these evil spirits touched these patterns, they felt as if their bodies were being roasted by fire, and they all howled and retreated.
Through their combined efforts, the seal was finally repaired.
Just as they were about to reinforce the seal, a chilling roar suddenly came from inside the ghost cave.
The roar seemed to come from the depths of hell, filled with endless fear and despair.
The seal, which had already been repaired, began to tremble violently, as if it would break at any moment.
The four dared not be negligent in the slightest and quickly joined forces to reinforce the seal. Yan Chixia, in particular, cried out in terror, "Evil Demon King!"
Seeing the puzzled expressions on the faces of the other three, Yan Chixia quickly explained, "The Evil Ghost King is a ghost king born from the Hell of Evil Ghosts. Its strength is extremely terrifying, far exceeding the limits of the human world."
"Apart from the Black Mountain King, who can suppress it, the other overlords in the underworld are no match for it."
Upon hearing this, the three of them couldn't help but gasp in unison: "Hiss!"
They never imagined that the underworld had collapsed to such an extent, which explains why so many ghosts and monsters appeared in the human world.
If they want to complete the task assigned by the shopkeeper, they will probably have to clash with the underworld sooner or later. If they encounter this evil ghost king, it will be a really troublesome matter.
Fortunately, thanks to the efforts of the four, the seal was finally stabilized, and the Demon King's unwilling voice gradually disappeared.
The four of them collapsed to the ground, utterly exhausted, finally having resolved this enormous problem.
Just then, an astonishing phenomenon appeared in the sky: countless clouds shimmering with golden light seemed to be attracted by some mysterious force and began to rapidly gather together.
In an instant, a dazzling light of merit descended from the sky, like a sacred pillar of light.
The beam of merit instantly split into five beams, the thickest of which fell directly into Qingzhenzi's body, while the slightly weaker beam fell into the Fire Qilin's body.
Finally, the remaining three thinner beams of merit light fell evenly into the bodies of Wang Hu, Zhou Bing, and Yan Chixia.
In that instant, a majestic and solemn voice resounded in their minds simultaneously: "Congratulations on obtaining Heavenly Merit. From now on, you can use this merit to exchange for various precious magical treasures, powerful cultivation techniques, rare spiritual fruits, mysterious bloodlines, and miraculous supernatural abilities..."
At the same time, customers all over the world heard the joyful voice of shop owner Ye Yun: "Congratulations to Qingzhenzi and others for successfully obtaining Heavenly Merit!"
Starting now, our store will undergo a major update. The original treasure box system will be canceled and replaced with an exchange system.
Players can use their accumulated merit points to exchange for desired items. The exact amount of merit points each person possesses can be viewed by clicking on their own attribute panel.
Upon hearing of this massive change, customers around the world were shocked, never expecting that the Ghost Cave incident would trigger such a transformation.
Qingzhenzi opened her panel and carefully looked through the data.
To his surprise, he discovered that he already possessed fifty strands of merit, which made him exclaim, "I didn't realize I had accumulated so much merit!"
Next, he checked the exchange panel. When he saw that the Immortal Pill only required twenty strands of merit, he truly realized the value of those merits.
"So that's how it is. The merit of this act is truly high!" Qingzhenzi murmured to himself.
Looking back on her days on Earth, Qingzhenzi suddenly understood some things.
At that time, although they also had merit, because they lived in an ordinary world, their merit could not be manifested or quantified.
Therefore, according to the current exchange rate, the merit he had accumulated before is probably less than a wisp.
Perhaps only people like Teacher Yuan and Teacher Qian can have a little more.
Meanwhile, the Fire Qilin was already dancing with excitement, eagerly starting to select items.
This time, it gained a considerable amount of merit, as many as forty strands.
After careful selection, it finally chose a Purifying Meridian Pill. This pill could help it purify its bloodline and activate the ancient bloodline hidden within its body. It was a treasure it had always dreamed of.
Meanwhile, Wang Hu, Zhou Bing, and Yan Chixia also began to make their selections, although this time they only received a small portion of the merit.
But this also earned them a full twenty strands of merit, which allowed them to buy far too many things.
Wang Hu's eyes were fixed on a sword technique, drool constantly dripping from the corner of his mouth, his gaze filled with longing. This was a sword technique hailed as the strongest in the mortal realm—One Sword Opens the Heavenly Gate!
The unique feature of this swordsmanship is that it can be infinitely deduced and strengthened, allowing practitioners to make personalized modifications based on their own characteristics and combat needs.
Even more astonishingly, through continuous practice and comprehension, a cultivator may even create their own unique sword path and become a generation of sword god.
Wang Hu couldn't help but lick his lips, his heart already filled with longing. However, when he saw the price of ten strands of merit, he couldn't help but hesitate.
These exchangeable items demonstrate the preciousness and importance of merit. Moreover, the treasure box will no longer appear in the future, making every bit of merit even more valuable.
Therefore, Wang Hu had to carefully consider and weigh the pros and cons to ensure that every use of merit was a wise move.
Zhou Bing and Yan Chixia were dazzled by the sights; they wanted everything.
Such as the Four Great Divine Origins, the Space Cutting Technique, the Legacy of the Sword Immortal Lü Dongbin... there are countless divine weapons and treasures, and various supernatural powers and secret manuals.
Ye Yun smiled and looked down: "See, system? Sometimes we need to make appropriate changes."
"No matter how things change, they may make a profit, but we will definitely not lose money."
"Changing the treasure box mechanism to an exchange mechanism will better motivate them, since they now have a clear goal."
System: "You're the boss, what you say goes."
