Ning Shu browsed through the secret manuals. There was a lot related to soul power. Some were expensive, some were cheap. The cheap ones only required a couple hundred points, the expensive ones cost over 2000 merit points and several thousand faith points.

  The frick? This was an outright robbery.

  However, things exchanged for with merit or faith points won’t be taken back by the system. So if she was going to exchange for something, she planned to do so with merit or faith points.

  After all, what if she encountered some special task and the system took away her secret manual? Then she wouldn’t be able to cultivate at all.

  Seriously, the system marketplace was capable of doing anything to get its money.

  Only things purchased with merit or faith points truly belong to you. Things that were exchanged with experience points could easily be taken away or forcefully destroyed.

  What a heartless world.

  She had looked through all of them several times but still couldn’t decide. She had pretty much read the descriptions of each of them word by word.

  There was a ‘ding.’ It was a notification from the chat system. Ning Shu opened the chat system and saw that Mei Ziqing had sent a message and asked her to meet up with her in the fabricated space.

  Ning Shu considered it. Maybe Mei Ziqing needed to tell her something.

  She had decided on a soul secret manual that could turn soul power into various kinds of attacks. She liked this one, but it required 3000 faith points.

  The moment she saw this price, her heart convulsed with pain. If she kept spending like this, how long would it take for her to save up enough faith and merit points?

  Oww. Ning Shu hammered at her heart.

  Forget it, forget it. She should go see Mei Ziqing first.

  Ning Shu stood at the entrance to the fabricated space. After a moment of dizziness, she was already standing on the quaint bluestone street. She headed towards the restaurant and stood at the entrance to wait for Mei Ziqing.

  Mei Ziqing soon arrived. When she saw Ning Shu, she smiled.

  Ning Shu was taken aback when she saw Mei Ziqing. Mei Ziqing’s soul had suddenly become much stronger and she looked like she had an actual flesh and blood body. Her skin was beautifully fair and blood vessels were even faintly visible.

  The two entered the restaurant, then Ning Shu asked Mei Ziqing, “Was there something urgent?”


  “Were you looking for world origin powers in order to construct a world?” asked Mei Ziqing.

  “World origin powers are very rare. Ordinary task-takers have no use for them and only task-takers above the ultra level would look for them.” Mei Ziqing looked at Ning Shu. “Are you planning to construct a world now?”


  Ning Shu suddenly didn’t know how to answer. They were friends, but Mei Ziqing was asking so directly that she felt a bit awkward.

  Was constructing a world the type of thing that they were supposed to keep to themselves? Ning Shu decided to be safe and said, “I’m not the one constructing a world. I’m looking for the ingredients for someone else.”


  Mei Ziqing scrutinized Ning Shu. “Could it be that you’re helping your boyfriend?”


  Ning Shu: …


  What bouifriend!!?

  Ning Shu’s mouth twitched. She was speechless.

  “It’s for a person, but I can’t say much more.” Ning Shu took a sip of tea.

  Mei Ziqing rubbed her forehead and sighed. “I really have no clue regarding how to construct a world.”
