Chapter 1084: A New Day for the Store(1)

[Host, the sun is about to rise on Thorr City!]

Aakesh was meditating inside the store when the system's voice rang in his ears.

Aakesh ignored the alert and continued to meditate. The system didn't alert again as it knew why Aakesh was extending the session.

It had been a year since Aakesh ascended to the Sacred Dimension with the store, and for that entire year, he had been stuck at early Divine Transformation cultivation.

Today seemed to be different as Aakesh was on the border of crossing to the next sub-level.

Time flew by, and after several minutes, the purer lesser Sacred stone in his hands turned into ashes while a new one took its place. Aakesh continued his posture as if nothing mattered to him.

A cover of wind started to form around Aakesh, and its intensity grew with every passing second. After a minute, it reached the limit.

At that moment, if someone knowledgeable were to be inside and see the scene, they would be shell-shocked. The reaction generated from the elements by Aakesh didn't match his cultivation level at all. Many would be surprised if even Divine Lord cultivators warranted such a phenomenon.

Boom!

Suddenly, a loud sound rang inside the store. The blocking array stopped the sound from traveling outside to the people standing outside the door with surprised faces.

It was the second day since the arrival of the store that the store didn't open its door after sunrise. The first time, it was the event, but there was no such situation planned today.

While inside the store, Aakesh was stepping beyond the early sub-level. A blue light covered his body. It disappeared as quickly as it arrived, and not long after, Aakesh opened his eyes.

Anyone looking into his eyes at that time would feel their souls getting devoured.

Aakesh had an indifferent expression as he looked to his right. As expected, the screen welcomed his sight, informing him about his improved absorption rate.

"Status!" Aakesh called out.

The next moment, a dark blue opaque screen appeared in front of Aakesh. Golden fonts then started appearing on it.

Personal Status:

Aakesh looked at the screen in front of him. His level had changed from initial Level 8 to intermediate Level 8, while his strength and agility had grown by more than ten Sacred units.

It was only a sub-level growth, and yet, he gained more than what the majority of the cultivators gained in two sub-level breakthroughs.

[Host, the customers are waiting outside for the store to open!]

The system's voice rang in Aakesh's ears, waking him up from his thought process. Aakesh nodded and stood up from the mat.

The next moment, the mat disappeared from the store while Aakesh went to his room. Not long after, he came out of the room and stepped down the stairs.

***

As expected, a large crowd of customers was waiting outside the store when Aakesh opened the door. Today, the crowd was larger than ever.

It wasn't due to more new faces, but due to the store getting late in opening the door.

Aakesh didn't let the customers wait anymore and turned around, returning to his chair. The customers entered the store like a tide as the competition for the virtual portals was extremely intense.

The next moment, all the customers stood in awe inside the store as they could see the changes with their own eyes. The space inside the store had grown to accommodate more than twenty thousand people.

Such expansion in the store's hall had to do with Panagea. Since there were more than three thousand portals, there were bound to be more than nine thousand people waiting at once at one point in the future, so the system didn't wait for Aakesh to complain about it.

The customers also noticed the larger pill counter. Finally, they noticed that none of them were covered in golden lights, increasing their excitement.

Not being covered in golden light only meant one thing: the number of virtual portals was higher than the number of customers.

The customers who owned cards were going toward the portal room when Aakesh raised his hands, bringing them to halt.

From today on, Panagea would begin to have a faster time flow rate than the Sacred Dimension, so Aakesh needed to introduce it to the customers and the new costs associated with it.

"The time flow rate inside Panagea had grown to three times the flow rate of the Sacred Dimension.

Keeping it in mind, the Panagea hours for the customers and their prices have changed.

For those customers who want to continue with the same six-hour routine, they would only be out for two hours in the Sacred Dimension while the prices would remain the same.

For the customers, who want to enjoy a longer stay; for the 1.5x time stay, the customers will be able to stay in Panagea for nine hours, and three Sacred hours. The costs for it are 10 lesser Sacred stones entry cost; 25 lesser Sacred stones per hour stay cost.

For the 3x times stay, the maximum Sacred hours are six, and the costs are 75 lesser Sacred stones entry cost; 100 lesser Sacred stones per hour stay cost."

Aakesh introduced the new prices to the store customers. The customers from the Primal Dimension weren't surprised since they were already used to it.

Many in the crowd felt disgruntled by the fact that the time flow rate had changed. They would stay inside for the same six hours, but the exit duration for them would grow, increasing the difficulty of the quests or the situations around them.

They were complaining, but none of them dared to voice it out to Aakesh.

Aakesh also understood the things going through the customer's head, but manipulating the time flow rate individually for each adventurer was an arduous task and not worth the cost of the system. The ideology the store followed was to make a profit; Aakesh was not here to impress the customers. Respect or other feelings was only the by-product.

"Store owner, tell me about the new pills," Alric requested Aakesh, forgetting about Panagea.

He entered Panagea to learn more knowledge about pill making as well as the vast resources available there to practice. But when several types of new pills stood in front of him, he decided to forget about Panagea and focus on the pills.

"There are ten new types of pills available in the store;

(1.) First-grade lesser Blood Cleansing Pill: This pill is used to cleanse the blood of impurities and improve circulation. It costs fifty lesser Sacred stones.

First-grade higher Blood Replenishing Pill: It works for late and peak True God cultivators. It cost one hundred ordinary Sacred stones.

These are the new pills available in the store," Aakesh introduced the pills to Alric.

Instead of responding to Aakesh, Alric entered the space inside his space ring through the divine sense. The next moment, his total wealth appeared in front of him.

Alric couldn't help but grow disappointed when he found out that buying three of each category would cost him almost all of his wealth.

"Store owner, give me three of first-grade lesser blood cleansing pills, first-grade lesser body cleansing pills… pill," Alric requested after a long pause.

Aakesh nodded and soon brought thirty-nine pills out from the pill counter. Thirty of them were lesser grade, three each, while ten of them were higher grade, each third-grade higher pill. Alric didn't buy the eternal youth pill as even a third-grade version of it cost five hundred ordinary Sacred stones.

***

"You need to pay three hundred ordinary and two thousand one hundred twenty-five lesser Sacred stones," Aakesh stated the total price.

Alric's expression was disappointed as he failed to get the eternal youth pill due to his weak financial capability, but since he was getting so many new pills to research, he soon calmed down and immediately paid.

Since Alric didn't have the store card, he needed to pay the exact sum. Fortunately, he had the correct currency, so he paid.

"The pills are yours," Aakesh announced after getting an alert of the amount being correct from the system.

After the pill's purchase, Alric paid for Panagea and proceeded toward the room. Alric chose the 1.5x time option and paid one hundred lesser Sacred stones.

A/N: Sorry, only one chapter, and for getting it so late. The office work overwhelmed me and since I didn't want to miss any day this month, I could only write one.

I have also made some changes in the Panagea section in Chapter 1082, so be sure to read it again.
