The First Store System

Aakesh’s expressionless face finally had a change as Aakesh could finally see the stair after a long journey of more than nine years.

“BOOM!”

Soon Aakesh’s eyes returned to their expressionless look as he had only come close to his destination, and Aakesh hadn’t reached the end.

One second passed, two seconds passed, three seconds passed,…, six seconds passed, and just like that, seventeen seconds had passed.

Aakesh’s eyes started shining as he was now on the spot he was when he had entered this world.

“BOOM!”

Aakesh didn’t feel any melancholy as he created another Apocalyptic Blast and threw it toward the ground a meter away from him.

While the sound of the explosion hadn’t even subsided, and Aakesh had already reached the first step.

Aakesh didn’t feel nervous or tense as he raised his right foot and stepped on the first step, finally ending his around nine year long journey on the treacherous ground.

The next moment, the view in front of Aakesh changed as he found himself in an unfamiliar place.

“How dare you enter my garden?” Aakesh hadn’t even looked around him when a booming voice rang in the area.

A frown appeared on Aakesh’s face as his eyes turned cold. He then turned around to look at the owner of the voice, who dared to threaten him with killing intent in their voice.

“It seems you have got guts. Threatening me after entering my garden,” The owner of the voice calmed down as he looked at Aakesh. His tone contained an even greater killing intent as he didn’t like the look in Aakesh’s eyes.

Aakesh coldly looked at the being in front of him. It was an Elf, but it wouldn’t be a lie if Aakesh said that the being in front of him was the ugliest thing he had ever seen.

The man in front of Aakesh was much larger than Aakesh in size. To be precise, the belly that fluffed with every action of the man was much bigger than Aakesh’s. The man had deep green scrabs all over his body, waiting for someone to rip it.

Aakesh could identify the man as an Elf even with scrabs all over his body because of his silver hair, silver eyes, and sharp and pointy nose and ears.

Seeing that the intruder wasn’t responding to his words, the Elf’s fat bulged, and his eyes squinted.

The next moment, a murderous aura engulfed the entire area.

Aakesh finally had a change in his expression as the murderous aura released by the Elf had crossed the spiritual limit, and it was now materializing in the form of waves.

Aakesh knew the man was no joke since he couldn’t see through the Elf’s cultivation.

Aakesh had no interest in continuing this situation as he disappeared from his spot and appeared right above the man’s head.

Aakesh hadn’t teleported, but after training his agility in the area to the stair, Aakesh’s agility had grown to an outrageous level.

The Elvish man had a change in his expression after seeing Aakesh suddenly appearing above his head. But the man was no weakling, as the materialized murderous aura around him in the form of waves attacked Aakesh.

A disappointed look passed through Aakesh’s eyes as he had expected a lot from the Elvish man to defend himself but attacking him with a murderous aura. It was nothing more than a joke in Aakesh’s eyes.

Aakesh ignored the upcoming wave toward him and raised his hands in the air.

“BAM!”

The next moment, an explosion-like sound rang in the area as Aakesh’s palm hit the head of the Elvish man.

The Elvish man had a gloating look in his eyes when Aakesh raised his palm, and it stayed that way until the man didn’t even know how he died. As soon as Aakesh’s palm crashed onto the man’s head, he burst open into a blood cloud as if a heavy hammer had hit a watermelon.

Not even a drop of blood or body parts touched Aakesh, as as soon as it reached even an inch near Aakesh, an invisible force would attack and vaporize it.

Aakesh had a dumbfounded expression on his face as he landed comfortably on the ground. He hadn’t even used half his power on his palm. He never expected the Elvish man to die just by that much strength after Aakesh couldn’t see the man’s cultivation level.

Since the Elvish man had died and there was no one to disturb Aakesh, he finally took a look at the surroundings around him.

“Eh!” Aakesh suddenly exclaimed in surprise as he found something familiar a few hundred meters away from him.

There was a tree with not even a single leaf around four hundred meters from Aakesh.

Even though there was not even a single leaf on the tree, and it looked to be at the end of its life, anyone who had even a little bit of perceptive strength could sense that the almost dead tree contained boundless lifeforce.

At the center of the tree, there was a spherical hole the size of a basketball. Inside the hole, something gave a splendor rarely seen.

“What’s a ‘Leafless Fruit’ doing here?” Aakesh mumbled as he snatched the fruit inside the splendor.

The next moment, the tree disintegrated and turned into sand. Not long after, the wind blowing took it somewhere with it.

The tree in question was ‘Leafless Tree’. It was a very rare tree and exclusively seen in the Sacred dimension. The reason for its name was that it had no leaf.

The reason for the rarity of the leafless tree was that it took 108 billion years to grow fully and then a further 108 billion years to give birth to a fruit.

In the lifetime of the tree, it would only give birth to a single fruit, ‘Leafless Fruit’.

The Leafless Fruit was a high-level fruit. It could replace the sun for a planet, and it could also be used as a material in smithing an item.

Aakesh finally understood the reason behind the anger of the already dead Elvish man. Two hundred and sixteen billion years wasn’t a little amount of time.

“Hey, system, do you want this?” Aakesh asked the system since he had no use for the fruit anytime soon.
