1063 The Store!
Chapter 1063: The Store!
After achieving what she wanted, Carla decided to ascend. Like other store customers, she succeeded with good records.
After an unknown amount of time, Carla opened her eyes, and she found herself in an unfamiliar area. She felt her strength had grown severalfold, but at the same time, she also sensed just how weak she was here.
Before Carla could focus much on her cultivation, the Store Card, which she bought with her in case she needed to find the store, brightened up and turned hot.
In no time, she felt as if she were holding a sun, so she took it out of her growth-level space ring. The next moment, the card exploded and formed a projection of the store’s front.
At the same time, a message appeared in her head. A wide smile spread across Carla’s face after she found that she would appear in front of the store once she passed the projection.
Carla didn’t waste any time and stepped forward. The next moment, a dreamy light covered her. Before she could understand what was going on, the world around her turned into the same light.
It happened as quickly as it ended, but when the light disappeared, Carla found herself in a new location. In front of her stood an ordinary building, entirely different from the mysterious store in the Primal Dimension. But since she found the familiar feeling from the building, the smile on her face expanded, and she stepped forward.

Tap! Tap! Tap!
Aakesh was relaxing on his chair when he heard the sound of footsteps coming from outside the store. He opened his eyes and turned in that direction. The next moment, a familiar face welcomed his sight.
The smile on Carla’s face continued, and she entered the store. When she found the store owner, her eyes lit up, and a respectful smile appeared on her face.
She respectfully bowed, greeting Aakesh. She then looked around and found the interior to be completely different from the exterior of the building.

“Hello, store owner. It feels great to see you again,” Carla greeted Aakesh.
Aakesh nodded in response to her greetings, and soon, Carla asked about the store’s products.
For Carla, the beasts weren’t new, as they had been there for more than a century in the Primal Dimension. In fact, Carla had also bought one, but the beasts in the Primal Dimension worked differently.
In the Primal Dimension, the store sold products for every cultivation level, so its initial level was fixed at the early sub-level of what cultivation the beast was. What Carla bought was an early Immortal, and it failed to reach the peak Immortal, so it didn’t ascend with her. Carla instead asked it to protect the Empire till she returned.

After Aakesh introduced the difference between all the store’s products in the Sacred and Primal Dimensions, Carla became excited and disappointed at the same time.
It would be great for her to find the store at the lowest level, as her growth would be stable due to store products, but at the same time, she didn’t have the wealth she carried in the Primal Dimension.
Fortunately for her, she could exchange her currency from Panagea, but even then, it was a small amount that could only allow her to enter Panagea for several days at most.
A new challenge and struggle began for Carla after the ascension. She wasn’t distraught by that, but it further motivated her to work hard, as she had come here after achieving whatever she wanted in the Primal Dimension. So in the Sacred Dimension, whatever gain she made would be a bonus.
Since there were no spots left in Panagea, Carla said her goodbyes to Aakesh and decided to return tomorrow morning. The longer she stayed in the store, the more she would want to spend the already meager wealth she had.
After Carla left, Aakesh closed his eyes and returned to his relaxation session.
Time flew by, and soon several hours passed in a flash.
The sun set on Thorr and its nearby cities. The cover of darkness began to spread slowly.
Aakesh closed the door, bringing an end to another fruitful day at the store.
“Let’s go!”
Aakesh announced, and the next moment, a white light covered him and Lily. Soon after, they found themselves in the selection area.
Lily jumped down Aakesh’s head and went to her usual training environment. Aakesh shut all of his senses off, picked up a weapon at random, chose his training area, and then a portal-like space crack quickly sucked him into it.
Aakesh activated his senses, and soon the weapon he had carried for the day presented itself.
It was a glaive. Its elongated blade was made of the bones of a Bulging Parrot, no less sharp and durable than a sword. Its long handle was made of the bones of a Doratic, a creature whose bones were both durable and flexible. On the bones were beautiful, mysterious patterns engraved, while the connected area between the two had different gemstones engraved in them.
After looking at his weapon, Aakesh focused on the blue screen in front of him. He then tapped on to start the battle, and not long after, his opponent for today’s battle appeared in the arena.
His opponent for today’s battle was a member of the Thyrgad race. These were humanoid creatures, ranging from fifteen meters to tens of miles.
Aakesh’s opponent was around twenty meters in size. It had a muscular build and tough, deep-brown, scaly skin. Its hands and legs were long, with three fingers and three toes each.
The most unique feature about them was their head. It had a long, pointed head, resembling a halberd. It had a combination of green sclera and brown vertical pupils.

Aakesh didn’t waste any time and made his move, cutting the Thyrgad into two clean pieces.
The battle ended before it began, and soon it was the one hundred twenty-third battle.
Aakesh was in a tough situation, as his upper body was only an inch away from falling. Aakesh persisted and landed the last strike.
A red light emerged from the glaive and crushed the Thyrgad, ensuring another victory for him.
Aakesh soon returned to the selection area as the opponent won the 124th battle.
