The First Store System

Even though the planet Curiel was a few travel portals away from Huan, he didn't immediately leave for the planet. He had heard only good things about the store, so his impression of it was better than before.

But since what he carried was an immensely valuable treasure, no caution could be more. He decided to travel one world at a time, and only when he became fully confident would he travel to the store.

The caution took a few more months, and Huan finally stepped onto the planet Curiel.

In Thorr City, where the store was established, there was a direct portal connection, but Huan decided to use the portal in the capital instead, so he was in the capital at that moment.

Huan was a Sacred King level cultivator, so he didn't need to be afraid of others harming him. With a wave of his hand, he could destroy the entire planet, let alone its inhabitants.

At the same time, the creature had a solemn expression as it had finally stepped into the same world as the store. It no longer tried to play pranks or insult Huan. If Huan died, it wouldn't have a good fate either.

A few more days passed, and Huan and the creature finally had enough confidence. The two knew that if the store had ulterior motives, they wouldn't be able to do anything, but whenever they tried to forget about the store and ignore the invitation, their intuitions would ring bells.

It didn't mean that they were in danger, but a loss that might be even more valuable than their lives.

Huan stood before the gate of the store while the sun was at his head. The heat did not affect him, and he finally stepped inside the building after taking a deep breath.

The first thing he saw after entering the store was the blue-skinned man that he had heard a lot about. Irrespective of the cultivation, others had been quite respectful of the man.

Huan could see that the store owner's cultivation was only at the True God level, but nonetheless, he didn't dare to underestimate him. Various skills and items could mask the actual cultivation level and show something different.

"The store owner isn't the danger. The all-pervading energy is."

The man nodded and immediately paid the sum using his store card. He then thanked Aakesh and left the store since he had already purchased the cultivation art, the purpose behind his coming to the store.

After the man left, it was finally Huan's turn. He didn't immediately speak but looked at Aakesh with a questioning expression.

"What purpose do you have for inviting me to the store?" Huan asked with a confident expression.

Huan and the creature had decided to act confidently before the store owner to make it seem that they weren't afraid of the store owner and the power behind him. At the same time, the tone couldn't be too strong, but it could also not be weak.

"The store invites some people who had great fates to become customers, and you have met the criteria, so the store invited you," Aakesh expressionlessly responded.

"We are a store, and we sell products. What purpose will we have to invite you for other than that?" Aakesh further added, maintaining his indifferent demeanor.

"But you don't have products for my cultivation," Huan responded, and then thought: 'Don't think I will come to your store without researching about it.'

"It doesn't have today, but it will have in the future."

"The store invited you around a decade ago, but you only came today. What if you had come thousands of years later? The store would have products for your cultivation then."

Huan didn't know what to say in response to that. "Do they really have no purpose behind inviting us? Didn't you say that you are immensely valuable to the powerful cultivators?" He asked the creature in his head. The last question had a hint of sneering.

The creature was also confused after hearing Aakesh but immediately shook its head. It knew its value. It didn't believe that the invitation was for no reason.
