The System: "A Level Four Shop Upgrade Reward? Is There One?"

"Fugui and honor."

Upon returning, Lu Changzhi was surprised to find that Jin Fugui was still waiting for him in the same spot.

"Master."

Jin Fugui quickly responded.

Lu Changzhi nodded and handed over a storage ring.

"Now that you have become a true disciple, as your master, I must give you something."

Jin Fugui hesitated for a moment, then said:

"Master has already given Fugui a great deal."

Lu Changzhi smiled:

"This is different."

Upon hearing this, Jin Fugui said nothing more, accepted the storage ring, bowed, and said:

"Thank you, Master."

"Come with me."

Lu Changzhi spoke up, and then led Jin Fugui toward the secret realm.

After finding a suitable spot, Lu Changzhi stopped.

With a thought, a long, cyan box appeared in front of the two of them.

Its surface is engraved with mysterious traces in blue patterns; if you probe it with your mind, you can clearly feel the rich vitality within.

"As expected, it can be improved indefinitely."

Lu Changzhi thought to himself.

Compared to the previous two, this one looks much more upscale.

"Go inside and lie down; your master will bestow upon you a great fortune."

Lu Changzhi turned to look at Jin Fugui.

"Yes, Master."

Jin Fugui responded and then got up and walked towards the long box.

At the same time, Lu Changzhi thought to himself:

"System, use talent enhancement on Jin Fugui."

As the voice faded, the system voice sounded:

"In use..."

At this moment, Jin Fugui also arrived in front of the long box.

Brush.

The lid of the long box opens from the middle and then spreads to both sides.

It's not a hinged lid, nor a sliding lid; it's actually a double-door design.

Jin Fugui turned to look at Lu Changzhi, who nodded, and then he got up and lay down inside.

The lid slowly closed, and the patterns on its surface gradually lit up.

A mysterious aura emanated from the long box, mysteriously connecting heaven and earth.

The long box slowly fell to the ground.

Lu Changzhi had no intention of leaving.

Currently, this ruin space is not particularly stable.

Besides, I don't have anything else to do.

Let's wait until things are settled on Fugui's side.

A moment later, the system voice sounded:

"Talent enhancement successfully used. View now?"

"Yes."

As soon as the voice faded, a message popped up:

[Name]: Jin Fugui (accomplice)

[Realm]: Dao Platform Realm Third Level

[Qualification]: Low-Grade Spirit Rank

[Physical Constitution]: Ordinary human body

[Talent]: Fortune Star Shines Brightly (lv.8)

"Blessing Others gone?"

Lu Changzhi immediately saw the key point.

However, judging from the corresponding enhancement levels...

It should be upgraded from "[Blessing Others]" to "[Fortune Star Shines Brightly]".

With a thought, relevant information appeared.

As expected.

[Fortune Star Shines Brightly]: A special talent. Upgraded from "Blessing Others." After upgrading, the blessing effect on those around you is further enhanced, and you yourself will also receive the same blessing boost, with a wider range and stronger effect.

After reading the introduction, Lu Changzhi felt a slight stirring in his heart.

It must be said that the effect of this upgrade is far more significant than that of simply enhancing the character.

The changes are quite obvious. The breadth and depth of the impact have increased, and it is no longer like before, where it only brings good fortune to others while one cannot enjoy it oneself.

It can be described as identifying gaps, filling in deficiencies, and adding value.

"This is all Fortune Star Shines Brightly, plus my Benefit a Region, so..."

Lu Changzhi's eyes flickered slightly.

He had initially planned to imprint the talent of Fugui and nobility on other people.

However, due to its special talent, it cannot be copied.

The plan was thus abandoned.

But now...

It seems to have been achieved!

May blessings abound, bringing immense good fortune!

"Jin Fugui Fugui, Longevity Physique, Fortune Star Shines Brightly, and blessings."

Lu Changzhi pondered for a moment, then smiled as if he had thought of something:

"The legends of the Three Immortals of Fortune, Prosperity, and Longevity from a past life have almost all come true in Fugui alone."

To be honest, Jin Fugui's transformation was far more dramatic than the previous ones.

"If only there were another system..."

Lu Changzhi's expression shifted slightly.

If he remembered correctly, the system had previously stated that upgrading to a level four shop would unlock the Disciple Trial, and passing the trial would grant him access to the system.

The matter of taking on apprentices is now complete.

At that moment, Lu Changzhi spoke up, saying:

"System, upgrade the store to level four."

As the voice faded, the system voice sounded:

Upgrading to a Level 4 shop requires 20,000 experience points. Please confirm whether you wish to upgrade.

"Twenty thousand?"

Lu Changzhi raised an eyebrow.

The price has been increasing each time.

However, coincidentally, the apprenticeship task I just completed gave me 20,000 experience points.

"Lift!"

A sound fell.

With a flash of light, the system voice sounded:

Upgrade successful.

"The current store level is four. You can enjoy a 30% discount on items purchased from the store."

"The item level cap in the shop has been increased. Current cap: Saint Rank Peak Grade."

New items added to the shop: [Talent Blind Box] and [Fortuitous Opportunity Peeking]

New features added to the shop: [Pull Up the Seedlings to Grow Together], [Disciple Trial]

Lu Changzhi was not in a hurry to look at these specific details.

Instead, he asked aloud:

"System, what are the rewards for upgrading to a Level 4 shop?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the system voice sounded:

"Huh? Is that so?"

"Um?"

Lu Changzhi raised an eyebrow:

No?

This time, it's not Earthly Dao.

The system said nothing more.

Lu Changzhi was silent for a moment, then said:

"Then I'll ask you again."

What are the rewards for upgrading to a Level 4 store?

This time, the system responded quite quickly:

"Yes, Master, it is a seed."

"Seed?"

Lu Changzhi's expression shifted slightly:

What kind of seeds?

"The owner needs to wait for a certain amount of time; obtaining the seed also takes a certain amount of time."

Lu Changzhi gently shook his head.

Although it seemed like he was keeping things a secret, he had a vague feeling about it.

It's possible that the system itself wasn't well thought out either.

Ignoring all that, Lu Changzhi focused his attention on the new items and functions added to the system.

I have to say, that's a lot more.

[Talent Blind Box]: Refreshes every seven days. Randomly obtains one talent other than a special talent; good or bad are both possible. After obtaining a talent, it will remain for a maximum of seven days. If not used within seven days, it will be automatically recycled as experience points. Price: 1 experience point.

"Only one experience point?"

He spoke softly, Lu Changzhi's expression shifted slightly:

"It's a pretty good blind box, but the refresh cycle is a bit long."

"Buy."

At that moment, Lu Changzhi chose to buy it.

Try it out first and see how it goes.

Brush.

With a flash of light, a small box appeared before Lu Changzhi's eyes.

He manually turned it on, and then Lu Changzhi saw a light appear, accompanied by a system notification:

"Congratulations, host! You have opened the Talent Blind Box and obtained the talent 'Guaranteed Success in Every Entry Must Hit' *1."

"Every Entry Must Hit?"

Lu Changzhi's eyes lit up.

Guaranteed to win—that sounds pretty good.

At that moment, I glanced at the detailed introduction:

[Every Entry Must Hit]: Those who possess this talent, unless they sever all ties with the mortal world, will inevitably have many children. They possess extraordinary luck in the matter of human reproduction; every time they cultivate the land, they will surely reap a reward. There is no escaping it; they can only welcome it with joy...
