The yellow wisp of light soon arrived before him and communicated with him through telepathy.

"I greet the librarian."

Liu Wei smiled and nodded.

"Greetings."

The yellow wisp of light said, "Do you want me to fetch a specific book that you want to read? It will take some time, depending on how high the shelves are where the book you want is located."

Liu Wei shook his head and replied, "I'm good."

The yellow wisp of light replied, "Alright. Have a nice day, Librarian! Just call me or any one of us if you are interested in reading some books."

Liu Wei nodded. "Thank you."

The yellow wisp of light floated away from him.

Liu Wei observed their flight path.

It appeared they would not fly higher to reach the shelves, seemingly remaining near the floor.

Liu Wei smiled.

They are simply waiting for the customers. They are not that different from a salesman.

He was then distracted by the System as her voice echoed in his mind.

[Your librarian desk will now change to Knowledge Scrying Desk. There is a magic crystal atop your desk, where you can place your hand to quickly find where certain knowledge is stored.]

Liu Wei's eyebrows raised.

He was surprised.

If that's the case, then I don't have to personally go to the library shelves and search for the specific books.

As though the System was able to read his thoughts, she said:

[That's right. In fact, the yellow wisp of light would often go towards you in case they are not aware of where the books, a visitor is looking for, are located. Hence, the Knowledge Scrying Desk will help reduce the time to locate a very specific book.]

Liu Wei nodded.

The System continued.

[As you have noticed earlier, there are resting spots around the Grand Index hall. They are wooden benches and simple tables tucked into corners. Spirit-lamps flicker softly, offering a quiet space for reading. At the moment, there are only five. We can't expect more than that at the same time.]

Liu Wei saw the resting spots and instantly desired to try them.

He walked towards the near resting spots and sat at one of the wooden benches.

The wooden bench was not hard to sit on at all. In fact, it seemed there was a cushion property that was strangely mixed within.

He glanced at the spirit lamp, which floated around the wooden benches and he was surprised.

After all, they seemed to swallow every noise before it reached the ear of those who sat.

He smiled.

I don't even have to be strict on the noisiness of my customers or visitors. This is good.

As he was relaxing on the bench, the System continued to echo in his mind.

[Lastly, the Living Room Nook has been upgraded. There is a one wooden table with a tea set, a couple of stone benches softened by spirit-cloth cushions. A place where visitors may sit and discuss learnings with you.

Do note that it's not a table for eating, but whatever suits you.]

Liu Wei smiled and nodded.

He thought.

This is already mystifying. What's more if this evolves into an intermediate level?

He said to the System, "Upgrade all the rooms into intermediate level."

[You have spent 100 System Points on the Agricultural Domain.

At the intermediate level, the Farming plots become multi-tiered terraces, with each layer tuned to an element.

The weather arrays can be controlled—lightning rain for thunder herbs, lunar glow for yin herbs, scorching sun for fire crops.

The Spirit Livestock Pasture is finally available. Creatures available are the Spirit Chickens, Cloud Sheep, and Qi Fish Ponds…]

Before the System continued, Liu Wei frowned and complained.

"There are no red meats?"

The System did not reply and continued.

[Puppet Farmers will appear with specialized roles—Herb Caretakers, Weather Weavers, and Livestock Wardens.]

Liu Wei was intrigued about the Puppet Farmers.

As much as he wanted to ask the System, interrupting her would not stop her from continuing.

In the end, he kept the curiosity to himself, waiting for the System to continue.

[Lastly, the Crop Affinity System is available.

The herbs resonate with your Dao, slightly amplifying Dao Comprehension during harvest.]

Liu Wei's mouth twitched.

He shrugged and thought.

That is if I still have time to harvest.

Suddenly, his eyes widened.

There are no Puppet Farmers specialized in harvesting!

He sighed.

I guess I have to manage my time more efficiently.

Liu Wei simply disliked managing his time.

For he was fed up of being forced to alter his time due to unexpected variables.

The System continued.

[You have spent 100 System Points on the Beast Breeding Ground.

At the intermediate level, the terrain expands into mountains, rivers, forests, caves — diverse habitats.

Contract Array Circles will be available, allowing safe beast taming.

A Mystical Hatchery incubates spirit eggs—the ranks depend on the lucky chance.

Beast Feeding Gardens will be available, growing food aligned to beast elements.

Simple Caretaker Puppets will be present, feeding the beasts, clean dens, and maintain ponds. However, they lack presence, so beasts don't bond with them deeply — they just reduce workload.

Affinity Bonding effects: feeding a beast yourself slightly aligns its bloodline with your Dao.]

Liu Wei nodded and engraved what the System had said in his mind.

He waited for the System to continue.

[You have spent 100 System Points on the Alchemy Domain.

At the intermediate stage, the pill furnace will be upgraded as a main pill furnace, while adding pill furnaces on the side, in case a visitor wants to concoct pills in the Alchemy Domain.

Auto-refill herb cabinets will be upgraded, containing up to Heaven-Grade herbs, but they are rare.

Puppet Assistants handle prep, grinding, and sorting.

Simulation Mode: test pill recipes without wasting ingredients.

Flame Resonance Arrays allow the alchemist to try flame Dao harmonization.

At this stage, you will be able to concoct pills with other alchemists at the same time to mass produce pills or even dare obtain higher grade pills!]

Hearing the enthusiastic tone from the System made Liu Wei's heart pound with excitement…
