The First Store System

“Lub! Dub!”

“Lub! Dub!”

A few seconds later, the blue light started giving birth to a new heart, and not long after, the sound of heartbeats returned.

It felt as if a beautiful rhythm was getting played in the store. The heartbeat was neither louder than it should be nor was it faster. It was in ideal condition.

The painful screams also stopped at that moment. The heart started pumping blue blood out despite not having a body.

If someone were to look closely, they would’ve noticed the color of the blood had turned darker than the previous situation.

The blue blood then began condensing into the spot where once Aakesh’s brain was, and not long after, the outline of the brain appeared.

Time flew by.

In the same way, in which Aakesh’s body had dissolved, it was returning. After the brain, it was the time of the complete skeletal structure.

The newly generated bones of Aakesh were severalfold tougher than the previous ones. If Aakesh wanted, he could use his bones to kill an Immortal in a single shot; such was the hardness.

“Argh!”

The scream returned as strange patterns started appearing on the bones all across.

The patterns consisted of different forms. Engraved on one of Aakesh’s right-hand fingers of Aakesh was an impression of burning fire, while on the next finger, there was an impression of thunder.

All across his bones, imprints of different elements had started getting engraved.

The engraving process finally ended, and with it, the painful screams also came to a stop.

Time flew by.

After the regeneration of bones, it was time for the generation of internal body parts. Similar to the bones, patterns belonging to different elements were engraved on them.

The blue light surrounding Aakesh had contracted to such an extent that any stranger could think of it as Aakesh’s skin.

One second passed, two seconds passed,…, fifteen seconds passed,…, three minutes passed, and just like that, around an hour had passed.

The process of skin generation took the longest out of all.

The breakthrough process finally came to a stop as the blue light surrounding Aakesh melted entirely into him.

Like a baby in a womb, Aakesh was still floating in the air. A silence then fell on the store.

His black hair that previously came to his waist was now almost double the size as it flew into the air. If Aakesh were to stand, his hair would now touch the floor. The color of his hair had also turned darker, giving it a terrifying and beautiful look. Their tensile strength had also increased. Only by using a whisp of his hair, Aakesh could now pick weights equivalent to a planet with ease.

His skin tone had also turned darker, while his body grew proportionately. He was now a meter taller than him before the breakthrough. Similarly, his muscles had turned sturdier, giving him a bulky yet ideal shape.

“Breath!”

The next moment, the terrifying silence inside the store got broken as breathing sounds began ringing.

The sound then continued growing quicker and louder, and finally, after a few seconds, it came to a standstill as another round of silence entered the store.

The silence didn’t continue for long as Aakesh’s unconscious body began moving. His bones began cracking as his fingers moved.

He was still unconscious and floating in the store, but he was now standing straight while his terrifyingly large hairs flew despite there not being wind, creating a terrifying scene for if someone were here to witness it.

Time flew by.

“Thud!”

A few seconds later, a landing sound echoed in the store as Aakesh landed after regaining his consciousness.

His previous black eyes had now turned even darker.

The entire store had turned darker for a moment when Aakesh opened his eyes. If not for the system acting straight away, the store still would’ve been dark.

If someone were to look at Aakesh’s eyes right now, they would automatically fall into an illusion, never to come out without Aakesh’s intervention, irrespective of the cultivation and mental strength of the being.

After the breakthrough, Aakesh had reached the top of the Primal dimension with no opponent other than the Void beast being able directly to contend with him.

After regaining consciousness, Aakesh checked himself as the system provided him with a mirror. He had an expressionless face, but at the end, he had a smile on his face, seeing the level of physical growth he had gotten with the breakthrough.

[Host, congratulations on your breakthrough!]

[With this breakthrough, you have reached the peak cultivation level of the Primal dimension. The system hereby restricts your energy level from growing any further until the day you ascend to the Sacred dimension.]

The next moment, the system congratulated Aakesh in its usual mechanical and emotionless voice. It then also told Aakesh a new piece of information.

Since he had now reached the peak cultivation level of the Primal dimension, his cultivation wouldn’t grow at all unless he ascended to the Sacred dimension.

The system primarily focused on energy, so it meant that there was still room for Aakesh’s physical growth. He could still grow stronger.

Soon, Aakesh felt an invisible chain appearing on him and tying him down. It felt very uncomfortable, but the feeling didn’t continue for long, and the unease disappeared. If Aakesh were to forget about the chain, he wouldn’t even know that his cultivation had gotten restricted.

Aakesh then took a step forward, bent down, and picked up the red dhoti peacefully placed on the ground. He then wore it. His eyes then fell on his hair, touching the floor. It didn’t look good, so he tied it into a large bun on the center of his head.

He then took a feel of the top of the bun and couldn’t help but smile. Lily loved to sit on his head, and now she had a throne made up of hair on Aakesh’s head to sit on.

The gain of one level wasn’t the only reward Aakesh had gotten. He had also received his first offensive skill from the system. To check it, he needed to check his personal status.

‘Status!’ Aakesh thought in his mind, and the next moment, a new blue screen containing all the details appeared in front of him.
