Branch Construction Blueprint
Branch Store Construction Blueprint.
The name itself tells you what it's for: a branch of the Mysterious Bookstore, about to open!
"But why blueprints? Why not just build a Bookstore in a certain place?" Ma Feifei asked, puzzled.
If it were just blueprints, Ma Feifei felt that building a branch store wouldn't be that simple; there might be some strange requirements, like building a house, cutting down trees, or blacksmithing, making Ma Feifei a carpenter.
Who knows, maybe the system's construction blueprints are really fancy, requiring Ma Feifei to come up with all sorts of weird high-tech stuff like glass and reinforced concrete.
Ma Feifei's thoughts became increasingly distorted...
'Ding ding ding~'
At that moment, a golden light shot out from the projection, Chang Kong was sent out.
Having successfully entered the Spirit Saint realm, Chang Kong's aura was now vastly different from before. Standing there, he seemed to merge with heaven and earth. At first glance, he appeared ordinary, yet he was incredibly captivating.
His surging Spiritual Power, in particular, terrified everyone.
Once a cultivator reaches the Spirit Saint realm, their Spiritual Power perfectly harmonizes with the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy. As the saying goes, as long as the battle continues, the Spiritual Power will never be extinguished; just like a human cannonball, they can unleash any kind of cultivation technique or martial art without worrying about running out of Spiritual Power.
"Truly Transcendent to Saint!" a cultivator exclaimed, staring blankly at the Chang Kong.
"Unbelievable!" exclaimed another cultivator.
All the cultivators looked at the Chang Kong with envy. The Spirit Saint realm! In the entire Azure Dragon Continent, there are very few cultivators who can reach the Spirit Saint realm. It is not an exaggeration to say that only one in ten million people can achieve this.
Those who can enter the Spirit Saint realm at the age of one hundred are even rarer; at least so far, apart from Goddess Yin Yue who Transcendent to Saint at the age of fifty, Chang Kong is the second one to enter the Spirit Saint realm in the shortest time.
Of course, this excludes the red-clad woman who has one foot in the Spirit Saint realm.
Most importantly, Chang Kong's reason for Transcendent to Saint and reaching sainthood is different from others; others reach this realm naturally and effortlessly, but Chang Kong is a bit too awesome—it's because of a book!
To be precise, it was a golden beam of light that shot out from inside the book. Just that one golden beam, and then Chang Kong jumped from the Spirit Emperor Eighth Stage to the Spirit Saint First Stage.
Why does it sound like I'm dreaming?
But that's the truth; Chang Kong's surging Spiritual Power and the unique domain of a Spirit Saint cannot deceive anyone.
He truly became a saint.
"Thank you, teacher!" Chang Kong walked up to Ma Feifei, bowed, and said.
His tone was a mixture of excitement, shock, and respect.
Yes, it's respect—respect for Mysterious Bookstore and respect for its owner, Ma Feifei.
Ma Feifei scratched his head, looked at the Chang Kong, and didn't know what to say for a moment.
The system's rewards are malfunctioning! We've got the Saint, but how do we get him to follow us? Judging from Chang Kong's behavior, he didn't immediately kneel down and beg Ma Feifei to take him in!
The script is wrong!
Ma Feifei remained silent, and Chang Kong dared not move. Although he had now become Spirit Saint, Ma Feifei's status in his heart was now unimaginably high. So, let alone keeping him in this position, even if he were asked to kneel, given their teacher-student relationship, Chang Kong would comply.
Because now, Ma Feifei is qualified enough to be Chang Kong's teacher.
The onlookers who witnessed this scene were all amazed.
"The shop owner is indeed no ordinary person; he doesn't even give face to Spirit Saint."
"Now, which Spirit Saint would dare to put on airs in front of the shopkeeper? The shopkeeper can reach a realm that others cannot attain even in their entire lives with just one book. Such a power to create Saints is unparalleled in the entire Azure Dragon Continent!"
"Exactly, I do hope Chang Kong puts on airs. Maybe if the shop owner gets angry, he'll just pull out a book and make everyone here break through to the Spirit Saint realm, scaring him to death."
"Brother, it's not even dark yet, stop daydreaming."
Ma Feifei hesitated for a moment, and the surrounding cultivators Analytic his attitude a hundred and eighty times.
This really left Ma Feifei speechless.
"Get up first." Ma Feifei was a little unaccustomed to someone who could be his great-grandfather bowing to him, so he waved his hand and said.
Chang Kong then lowered his hands and straightened up.
"You have comprehended three Great Daos?" Ma Feifei asked, looking at the Chang Kong.
Chang Kong nodded and said, "Teacher, I have understood."
The reason Ma Feifei wasn't sure if Chang Kong had grasped the eight principles was because the system didn't show any mission for Chang Kong, so she could only ask him.
"Congratulations!" Ma Feifei sincerely congratulated him. Chang Kong's Transcendent to Saint not only allowed him to complete the Side Quest, but also set a good precedent for unlocking the Epic-grade "The Analects" book launch quest. At least one student has now met the activation requirements.
After Flatter, Chang Kong hurriedly went home, without lingering outside the Bookstore to watch the projection, seemingly without intending to share his joy with anyone.
The background on the projector began to change, but Ma Feifei wasn't really paying attention. Instead, he started figuring out how to do the next task: to subdue Luan Feng and make her the Bookstore's third employee.
To be honest, Ma Feifei didn't know much about Luan Feng, only that she was the God of War of War of Yan State; however, she had now stepped down and become unemployed.
Previously, Ma Feifei had spent a whole month hiding in the Mysterious Bookstore, engrossed in studying "The Art of War," to the point that he completely wore out the book, causing him significant losses.
Whether it was because she felt ashamed to face Ma Feifei, Luan Feng never came to the Mysterious Bookstore to look at books again after that day, as if she had disappeared.
However, because she had promised to help Ma Feifei with something, Luan Feng left her address in Dubian Town so that Ma Feifei could find her there if he needed her.
"How about we sneak into General Luanfeng's mansion tonight?" Ma Feifei stroked his chin, seriously considering the feasibility of this idea.
And then he rejected it...
"Let's find someone to learn about her habits first," Ma Feifei thought.
To attract Luan Feng to your Bookstore, you must first understand what kind of person she is.
If she's greedy, Ma Feifei can kill her with Spirit Crystal.
If she wants martial arts techniques, high-level spiritual weapons, or spirit beasts, that's even easier; just become Bookstore employee and all the books will be free to read.
If she doesn't want either of those two things, then Ma Feifei thinks she can only be lustful.
Thinking of this, Ma Feifei took out a bronze mirror from his spatial bag. The mirror reflected a face as handsome Pan An, which made Ma Feifei swoon!
"He's so handsome!"
