The First Store System

Chapter 1473: Huo Jinglin(16)

Huo Jinglin found himself back in the store, looking at the square device. His face showed a calm expression, but his eyes betrayed him, filled with the joy of winning over the beast.

The last scene of the battle would be forever etched into Huo Jinglin's mind since it was death that allowed him to become the victor.

In the last moments of the battle, Huo Jinglin was struck by the attack, but at the same time, the Bestial Cormorant also froze, and then it turned to ashes since the ice flame was still a flame despite having the freezing effect.

Huo Jinglin was able to win because after the attack enveloped him, the state was over, and the pattern dimmed entirely, but his body still retained some consciousness.

It was only a flicker of fire before the end, but he was still alive, making him the last survivor of the battle and winning the taming contest.

Hiss!

Huo Jinglin immediately hissed in pain as the prickly pain hit him. But since it disappeared immediately after its appearance, leaving no sequelae, Huo Jinglin no longer felt it.

He then looked at the screen on the device, which had lit up. With only a glance, the entire content on the screen was engraved into his mind.

Since the beast was of ultimate quality, Huo Jinglin needed to pay personally to complete the purchase. He didn't waste even a moment and immediately exited the queue and then the beasts' room.

When he walked out of the room, he saw a small line of a few customers in front of Aakesh, but since he had no choice but to meet the store owner to complete the last step, he joined the queue and waited for his turn.

While waiting for his turn, Huo Jinglin glanced at the beast card in his hand from time to time.

Since it took a self-destruction ability to win against the Bestial Cormorant in the taming battle, Huo Jinglin couldn't defeat it in reality, making the beast the stronger of the two.

Huo Jinglin didn't worry about the pushback from the beast since the store owner had told him that the beast would be completely loyal to the customer after the taming battle.

While he was thinking, time passed, and soon it was his turn.

"Store owner, I want to complete the purchase," Huo Jinglin respectfully stated, handing the beast card to him.

Aakesh took the card from his hands and returned it after taking a glance at it.

Since Huo Jinglin had taken many rounds of summoning before he got the Bestial Cormorant, the summoning cost was also high. But since it was a small amount for him, who was a direct descendant of a Sacred Creator, he didn't worry much about it.

After paying the required sum from his Ultimate Store Card, Huo Jinglin requested Aakesh to enter the Primordial level difficulty in the training area.

Aakesh had suggested that he first buy the beast, then the training area, and then the skills, so Huo Jinglin followed that.

After paying one supreme Sacred stones, Huo Jinglin walked toward the weapons room, while Aakesh was bombarded with mechanical alerts.

Since there was still one customer left, Aakesh focused on that while Huo Jinglin entered the room.

The numerous murals on the wall greeted his sight, and as he looked at one of the paintings related to the sword, he suddenly felt the world around him blurring.

Huo Jinglin looked astonished as he found himself still in the store and there was an intense attraction toward that mural, but for some reason, that blurry feeling never returned. He tried staring at the painting, but it was only once event.

Huo Jinglin felt like his heart was empty as if he had missed something significant, but unfortunately for him, he could do nothing about it.

Huo Jinglin's talent in swords was top notch so much so that he caused a sensation in the mural, but he was unable to breach that and feel the mural, lacking only a little bit.

Unaware of what he had lost, Huo Jinglin took repeated deep breaths to calm himself down and focused on another mural.

The sensation never returned for any mural, so Huo Jinglin gave up and proceeded toward the inner circle of pillars.

Once he reached the pillar, he completed the process as told by Aakesh. He couldn't help but hiss again after the prickling pain. It wasn't as intense as the last time, but it was still unbearable.

***

The customer only wanted to complete the purchase of cultivation art, so it didn't take long, and Aakesh was finally alone.

[Ding!]

[Host, congratulations on completing the "Mission Objective: Sell Beasts" successfully! The sale commission has been transferred to you.]

[The "Mission Reward: One pillar upgrade" will be given after the store's closing!]

[Please see the following screen for your fourth beast's quest!]

The next moment, a blue window containing the details of the fourth beast's quest appeared before him.

After Aakesh requested the system, several mechanical alerts bombarded his head.

The day was different since it was the second successful quest alert after the weapon's mission. Aakesh immediately focused on the screen in front of him.

As the series went on, the selling requirement had grown by ten thousand times, while the deadline had increased by a hundred times. As expected, the reward for the fourth beast's quest was the availability of the third Beast Summoning Pillar.
