Bai Qingqing frowned: "Isn't that a bit odd?"
Xiao Hao was taken aback and asked blankly, "What's wrong?"
"Level," Bai Qingqing said, "Why is the Heavenly Origin Technique only at level ninety-nine?"
"Huh?" Xiao Hao was even more stunned.
A jump of sixty-four levels in one go, isn't that enough?
“You said before that I came to this world and spent high-grade spirit stones to repair the spiritual veins of this world.” Bai Qingqing still frowned.
"I said, I said it," Xiao Hao replied tremblingly.
"You also said before that after completing the mission, I would become an unparalleled powerhouse." Bai Qingqing's tone had become somewhat somber.
"I said it, I said it," Xiao Hao's voice was still trembling.
"You said before that the highest level of the Heavenly Origin Technique is 10,000, right?" Bai Qingqing asked seriously.
"I said it, I said it." For some reason, Xiao Hao felt a chill run down his spine.
"If I completed the mission, why did the Heavenly Origin Technique only reach level 99? Shouldn't it be level 10,000?" Bai Qingqing asked matter-of-factly.
"Well, that's because the host didn't complete the mission," Xiao Hao hurriedly explained.
"You just said that the total expenditure has been reached and the world's spiritual vein has been upgraded." Bai Qingqing snorted, "Still trying to fool me?"
"But the total cost of high-grade spirit stones has already been reached, and the world's spiritual veins can't only be upgraded by one level." Xiao Hao's voice grew softer as he spoke.
After all, it was my first time working with the system, so I wasn't very familiar with it.
I hadn't learned to be as tactful as I am now in the past, and some of my words were a bit too blunt.
But the owner has such a good memory.
A troublesome person.
"Oh, there are hidden rules from the client?" Bai Qingqing sneered.
"This is a new rule triggered after the system upgrade." Xiao Hao quickly said, "I didn't know about it before the upgrade."
"When did you level up?" Bai Qingqing asked.
“Just now,” Xiao Hao said. “The world’s spiritual veins have been upgraded, and some of the Heavenly Dao Laws have been completed. With such achievements, the system will naturally be upgraded.”
"There was no notification," Bai Qingqing snorted.
"I was interrupted by the host before I could even give a hint."
"Ding, the Godly Rich System has been upgraded. The basic task has been changed from spending high-grade spirit stones to spending flawless spirit stones and high-grade divine stones."
"The spending rules and refund rules remain unchanged."
"Please keep up the good work, host."
"Are you trying to pierce your ears right before getting on the sedan chair?" Bai Qingqing couldn't help but roll her eyes.
"Please keep up the good work, host," Xiao Hao repeated, risking his life.
"You mentioned flawless spirit stones before, I know. But what are superior-grade divine stones? Are there anything above superior-grade divine stones?" Bai Qingqing asked.
Bai Qingqing felt that she should ask questions before undertaking a new task.
To avoid disputes later.
She's the supplier, so she'll always be the one who suffers in any dispute.
Xiao Hao suddenly realized something and immediately said, "Every time the system upgrades, it unlocks a corresponding task. Before the upgrade, Xiao Hao didn't know either."
"As for superior divine stones, they are stones that are higher than superior spirit stones and flawless spirit stones. There are not a single one in this world at present."
"Absorbing high-grade spirit stones offers a chance to comprehend the laws of heaven, but the chance is very low."
"Absorbing a flawless spirit stone gives you a 50% chance of comprehending the laws of heaven."
"Absorbing a high-grade divine stone guarantees comprehension."
"Refund Rules: For every 100,000 Flawless Spirit Stones spent, you will receive a refund gift pack."
"For every 100,000 high-grade divine stones spent, you will receive three return gift packs."
"Other rules remain unchanged."
Bai Qingqing remained silent for a moment.
Does that mean the system has the final say on interpretation?
It seems I need to be more careful when dealing with systems in the future, or I'm sure I'll suffer losses.
Bai Qingqing took a deep breath and asked, "You just said that the world's spiritual veins have been upgraded, and there are many more spirit stone veins, right?"
"Mmm," Xiao Hao replied cautiously, while simultaneously becoming extremely alert.
"Then I just bought so many spirit treasures with high-grade spirit stones, didn't the seller suffer a loss?" Bai Qingqing asked.
"Huh?" Xiao Hao didn't react.
"Because I completed the task, causing the spiritual vein to upgrade, the original value of high-grade spirit stones plummeted," Bai Qingqing said. "So, it's still those sellers who suffered losses."
"Okay, it seems so." Xiao Hao nodded blankly.
"In business, integrity is paramount. How can we let someone suffer a loss?" Bai Qingqing rubbed her hands together, eager to try. "I've decided to compensate them with flawless spirit stones and high-grade divine stones."
I'm so smart.
In this way, it's not a complete waste of money, and you don't have to worry about bearing any karmic consequences.
Xiao Hao was silent for a moment.
"The host can compensate with flawless spirit stones at a ratio of ten to one."
"As for high-grade divine stones..."
At this point, Xiao Hao paused for a moment, speaking with some difficulty: "The system replenishment is not yet in place, so the host cannot activate the spending function for the time being."
It had just tried to enter its master's storage artifact to retrieve the divine stone, but was unable to do so.
What's going on?
Hasn't Sister Xue already woken up?
Isn't it possible to freely take all the magical treasures inside?
"You just said that spending high-grade divine stones is also my current task?" Bai Qingqing frowned.
Xiao Hao's brain was practically spinning.
Then a thought struck him: "The system has just been upgraded, but the warehouse has not been updated yet, so the host needs to wait a little longer, at the latest twenty-four hours."
Seeing that Bai Qingqing remained silent, Xiao Hao hurriedly added, "Because the system warehouse failed to update in time, we are now issuing a compensation gift pack."
"In addition, the cost for the first five Divine Stone quests can be halved."
"That's more like it." Bai Qingqing nodded.
Xiao Hao breathed a sigh of relief: "The compensation package has been sent. Would you like to open it, host?"
"Open it." Bai Qingqing nodded again.
The next second, a dark seed appeared in the system space.
"What is this?" Bai Qingqing asked.
“The seed of the Tree of Life,” Xiao Hao said hurriedly. “This is the strongest plant that this system has ever seen in its lifetime, without exception.”
Of course, Brother Rong is very strong.
He is second only to Brother Shi.
Among these spirit pets, they are undoubtedly the second best.
"So strong?" Bai Qingqing was very satisfied. "This compensation package is great. We must keep up the good work in the future. Can we plant these seeds in the courtyard?"
“Sure,” Xiao Hao blurted out. “Just plant it next to the peach tree. When the Tree of Life grows up, it will also improve the peach tree’s level.”
By saying this, he could lay a solid foundation for Sister Tao and the others to appear in the future.
They really did a great job.
Xiao Hao was incredibly pleased with himself.
"Such a good thing?" Bai Qingqing was even happier.
If we upgrade the peach tree, will it turn into a peach from the Heavenly Palace?
Then I'll make a fortune.
"The host can now tell everyone about the advancement and increase of the spiritual veins. Although they sensed it, they don't know the specifics."
"This way, the host's existing persona can be more stable."
"It will be easier to complete tasks in the future."
Bai Qingqing smiled helplessly.
Xiao Hao is always particularly persistent in creating a persona for her.
That's true. Without a persona and a system to support her, how could she gather such a large group of people around her?
