The First Store System

The door of the room opened with a bang, and the new product flooded the eyes of Aakesh and Lily.

Aakesh took the first step and entered the room while Lily followed him.

The room had similar aesthetics as the weapons room but with no one hundred and eight pillars.

There were countless murals painted on the room walls with one thing in common between them.

Aakesh ignored the murals for now and focused on his primary purpose for entering the room.

Aakesh’s eyes then fell on the shelves lying in the middle of the room.

There were five shelves placed there with a distance of one meter between each of them.

The five shelves represented the five types of cultivation arts in the Primal dimension.

After Lily rotated the roulette, the pointer had stopped at cultivation arts, so Aakesh’s store would also sell them from now on.

The five types of cultivation arts were: Mortal, Rare, Legendary, Mythical, and Immortal, with the Mortal grade being the lowest and the Immortal-grade was the highest level.

Aakesh first went to the shelf representing the Mortal grade. The material used in the making of the shelf was now extinct in the Multiverse.

The material was Aruval. It was a material that only existed at the beginning of the Multiverse. If not for the quest, Aakesh would have failed to recognize it as it had been countless Epochs since it went extinct.

The reason for it getting extinct was its minuscule quantity, as well as the Yaksha race’s unprecedented interest in it.

Aruval was not only the most durable material to exist up to this point(In the first three dimensions), but it also had the property of absorbing energy and transferring it.

Aakesh would have gotten shocked at first, considering how the system got this when it had gone extinct and could only be found in the treasury of the Yaksha race. The Yaksha race loves it so much that they wouldn’t think for a moment before starting a war if they found out about it. But after Aakesh had seen the creation of the Multiverse, he didn’t feel that anything was beyond the system, except for harming the Devas.

Aakesh understood the reason behind the system choosing this material for the shelves since Aruval helped in absorbing the energy released by the cultivation arts since it contains the aura of strong. The reason the system didn’t choose Kadambi was its energy negating property.

Here Aruval not only absorbed the excessive energy released by the language but also transferred it back, not taking away its extraordinariness. Kadambi, on the other hand, would have negated all this energy, resulting in its value diminishing.

If Aakesh were to activate Energy Overseer now, he would see the absorption and transfer of countless light dots in the Legendary, Mythical, and Immortal grade shelves.

A pattern of a man reading a book was imprinted on the shelf.

Aakesh then took out a random cultivation art from the mortal shelf.

[Name- The Mountain and Sea Art,

Grade- Mortal grade,

Type: Qi-cultivation system,

Details: In the Mountain and Sea Art, the cultivator uses Qi to have the strength of a Mountain in their fist while the agility of crossing the sea in a single jump.

Users: Qi condensation, Houtian, Xiantian.

Price: 50 ordinary Primal stones.]

Aakesh nodded as he read the details of the cultivation art that had appeared right after he took the book out.

As Aakesh was the store owner, he could open the book and read all the content written in it. The same wasn’t the case for others. They could only learn about the art from the screen popping next to it, and only after buying could they read the art.

“Hey, system, I have a suggestion,” Aakesh suddenly told the system.

[Host, go ahead!]

The system’s mechanical and emotionless voice rang inside Aakesh’s head as it always waited for Aakesh to give his suggestions since it was here for him.

“Why don’t the store charge some money and allow the customer to read the content written in the art. If they purchased it, they would only pay the remaining sum, but if they didn’t purchase it, the money would be ours while the customers would forget what they have read from the cultivation art,” In a single breath, Aakesh stated the suggestion.

Aakesh thought of this as it could help both the customers and the store. After paying a fixed amount of money, the customer would be able to read the contents of the cultivation art and wouldn’t have to buy one just depending on the blue screen popping next to it. While the store would also earn some money if the customer bought another cultivation art.

[Yes, Host! The system accepts your suggestion.]

[Since you were the one who suggested it, the store wouldn’t charge anything on the price earned by this feature, and it would all be yours.]

[Host, now decide the price!]

The next moment, consecutive mechanical alerts rang inside Aakesh’s head, taking him by surprise. When he had given the suggestion, he had never expected the system to give him complete ownership of that money as well as the option of choosing the price for the endeavor.

Aakesh then nodded and told the system to wait for him. He would decide the price after checking a few more cultivation arts of each grade.

Time flew by.

[Name- The Mountain and Sea Art,

Grade- Immortal grade,

Type: Qi-cultivation system,

Details: In the Mountain and Sea Art, the cultivator uses Qi to have the strength of a Mountain in their fist while the agility of crossing the sea in a single jump.

Users: Early, intermediate, late, peak Heavenly Monarch.

Price: 50 billion supreme Primal stones.]

(Warning: Only people above late Tao Palace are permitted to hold the art or study it.)

Aakesh nodded as he read all the five grades of the Mountain and Sea Art.

Aakesh then put the art back into its respective shelf.

After reading all the five grades of the same cultivation art, Aakesh could say that the store had gotten another product that would bring a lot of business to the store.

It was now time for Aakesh to make his decision about the pricing for viewing the Cultivation Art before buying it.
