The First Store System

Aakesh walked up to the door and slid it open, beginning a new day for the store. Ransh was the first in line, and Aakesh immediately brought him inside.

He then looked at the endless number of people waiting outside the store while Ransh looked inside. Things slightly changed as a new table and chair were added to the store, and a golden tag with his name was placed on the table.

As everything related to the store was special, the golden tag was no exception. Ransh knew some languages due to his travels over the past years, and the tag said 'Ransh' in all the languages he knew.

He walked to his chair and sat down. The next moment, a feeling of invincibility surrounded him, making him smile widely. At the same time, many details emerged in his mind about the different store products.

Ransh had been regular to the store, so he was already aware of the products but still knew nothing about some pills he didn't have any interest in. But at that moment, he learned about the details of the different grades and their prices. It was the same for every other product. He became an encyclopedia of the items.

After Ransh had become comfortable with his chair, Aakesh turned around and returned to his chair, while the endless crowd rushed inside the store like a raging tide.

Different lights surrounded the people, depending on their entry time. People had started to queue up, but Aakesh suddenly raised his hands, and they stopped.

"Ultimate level beasts, Primordial level training area, God level skills, and cultivation arts can only be purchased from me," Aakesh announced, and the next moment, a new rule appeared on the rule board for everyone to see. Find your next read on empire

He then fell silent, and soon a large queue had formed before Aakesh as well as Ransh.

At first, people were only joining the line for Aakesh, but once it reached a large number, people focused on Ransh. So, those who would have to wait for a few minutes immediately entered Panagea with many.

Ransh wasn't as quick as Aakesh, but with the help of the system, the queue before him became empty a few minutes after Aakesh.

Ransh breathed a sigh of relief and was about to relax when a customer approached him. A smile spread across his face as he immediately returned to business mode. He wasn't Aakesh, who could treat customers indifferently.

It was true that the store protected him from even the strongest of the Sacred Dimension, but he still knew his limits and understood the power gap between those with higher cultivation levels.

At the same time, no customer dared to treat Ransh as a nobody. They would never have treated Ransh with the same respect he deserved without the store, even if they treated him with less respect than Aakesh.

Tira looked with anticipation as she looked at the card in her hands. It was her reward for the contest, and due to that, her life had fully changed in less than a day.

She had never received more respect, and at the same time, many Sacred Monarchs contacted her. Even a few Sacred Creators reached out to her. The reason for that was the card in her hands.

The store owner hadn't prohibited selling the reward, so those powerful cultivators wanted to purchase the territory from her. The price they offered was something she wouldn't even imagine in her dreams.

A Sacred Monarch who was regular to the store offered her three ultimate Sacred stone mines, while one bid five. The highest offer she received was from a Sacred Creator.

She offered to allow her to live inside his inner world, with no restriction on what she could take out from there.

The inner world of a Sacred Creator was only lower than the Sacred Dimension, and the resources it carried were more than enough to give birth to numerous Sacred Monarchs. Those who were extremely talented and lucky could even become Sacred Creators if there were no restrictions on their actions. Tira had the same offer and was ready to sell her territory, but at that time, Maria approached her.

Even though Maria's cultivation was low, no one dared to underestimate her because of her level in Panagea. She had the highest level in Panagea and was one of the most influential customers due to that.

Her organization inside Panagea had several highly-ranked adventurers. They were those who had ascended from the Primal Dimension. In Sacred Dimension, they were nothing, but as soon as Panagea was involved, no one dared to mess with them.

Tira thought Maria had come to meet her with an offer for the territory. She turned out to be partially wrong. Maria had come to meet her with an offer, but it was not for the territory. She instead wanted Tira to join her organization.

Tira's adventurer level was nowhere near even the lowest-ranked member of her organization but with the large territory under her control, she was more valuable to the organization than anybody else. After all, Maria had reached that level with the territory in the first place.

Maria gave Tira an irresistible offer to convince her to join the group. She didn't offer any material reward but a position at the top table of the organization.

Panagea was something that went beyond the Sacred Dimension, so getting the top table at an organization there was no less valuable than reaching the Sacred Creator.

Maria's organization wouldn't even be considered low-tier if it were considered along the lines of the entire world of Panagea. As it was the strongest group led by adventurers, and adventurers were immortal, the group was bound to reach that height in the future.

After discussing the offers with her father and those she deeply trusted, Tira chose to accept Maria's offer and joined the organization.

Immediately after joining, her rank in the organization reached the third tier. The first was Maria, the second was Evelyn and George, and she was third with two more adventurers. There were two more tiers of administration below her, so her rank wasn't low in the organization.

At the same time, Tira only had to allow other members of the organization to get resources from her owned territory. The resources would belong to the organization and Tira would get a large share from its value, making both her and the organization benefit from the territory.

Back to the present,

Tira took a deep breath and then crushed the card in her hand. It immediately exploded into light particles and gathered to form a virtual portal.

Tira couldn't choose any territory as hers, so she had to travel to the land she won. Maria and others were too far from her to meet in Panagea, so she had to travel there alone.

Her expression of anticipation reached its peak, and she walked into the portal. The next moment, she appeared in front of a large villa made of gutruf wood, an expensive wood known for its toughness and auto-repairing ability.

Following that, a blue screen popped out before her, and it was the map of the 10,000 square miles she controlled. There was a golden mark on an area around seventy miles from her.

She immediately understood what it was, so she rushed in that direction. That distance wasn't very far, so she appeared before a cave in only a few seconds.

The cave was open, and nothing but darkness could be seen from the outside. Aakesh didn't specify what the Emperor level resource was, so she couldn't help but imagine different kinds of resources.

Any Emperor level resource area was extremely valuable, but even in that, there were levels of rarity depending on their demand among the people of Panagea or the Sacred Dimension.

The next moment, she took a deep breath and walked inside the cave. Her sword had appeared in her hands in case there was any danger.

As soon as she walked inside, she found herself in a different world. A gigantic water body appeared in her eyes, and she was in the middle of it. The only way for her to leave from there was a simple door from which she had come out.

A stupendous expression appeared on Tira's face, but it couldn't last long.

Pop!

Suddenly a popping sound rang in her ears, and the view before her eyes changed. She was no longer in the middle of an endless ocean.

Tira suddenly jumped up in excitement as her eyes fell on the several pearl-like items embedded deeply in the walls of the cave's inside.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Illusion Bead!"

She exclaimed in shock as Emperor level illusion beads were extremely rare and high in demand due to their extensive use in mental defense related weapons or its use in cultivation for the specific element cultivators.
