The First Store System

After leaving the beast’s room, Zomor walked to the skill’s room. He had numerous skills of his own but wanted to see if he could find something outrageous from the store.

When he walked into the room, the several counters greeted his sight and the large number of people around them. The counters referring to the Sacred Emperor and Sacred Monarch levels were empty, while the one selling skills at the Sacred King level had three customers checking their respective skills.

Zomor’s eyes then fell on the numerous murals painted across the wall. He suddenly raised his eyes in surprise as one of the scenes was extremely familiar to him.

It was extremely familiar because Zomor had just seen it in the taming battle. The mural detailed the Golden Lamprey using that skill.

‘Did I underestimate the skill because it was basic?’

He couldn’t help but think upon seeing that. He was still disappointed that the beast defeated him with a basic skill, but looking at the murals, it seemed things were different.

Zomor then returned his focus to the purpose he had for coming to the room and walked toward the last counter representing the skills for Sacred Monarch level cultivators.

Since skills for the Sacred Creators weren’t available, that was the highest Zomor could go in the store.

Upon reaching the counter, he immediately reached into the last shelf in the bottom row and pulled out a card.

Zomor was born with the control of the element of light. Even though he looked like an evil creature due to his dark physique, he and his race were quite strong at manipulating the element of light.

He immediately focused on the details on the card and was surprised to find out that he had the skill himself, but as he read the details, he found that the one in the store was way better than the one he had.

His anticipation for the skills grew to new heights as he returned the card and pulled out a new one.

Even though the one sold in the store was the better variant, it wasn’t a skill Zomor wanted to exhaust his limit, so he decided to return it.

The first three skills he pulled out were the ones he already had, and only on the fourth turn did he find one he didn’t have. Unfortunately, the skill wasn’t that great, so he returned it and pulled out a new card for the fifth time.

His eyes immediately widened in surprise when he read the details of the skill. It was a powerful skill related to the element of light he had always had an interest in but was unable to find it.

…

This is a skill of inconceivable power, but it comes at an equally unimaginable expense. Activating it requires an enormous amount of energy and may consume the user’s soul as fuel. The destruction unleashed by the attack is uncontrollable and indiscriminate. Once activated, it will continue until either everything within its reach is destroyed or the user forcibly shuts it down, which might result in their permanent destruction if they do not have the required mental and physical strength to do so.

Price: 6,000,000,000 ultimate Sacred stones.]

The opposite of [Radiant Singularity] was [Infinite Radiance]. It was the skill he used in the taming battle.

The irregular crystal spires on his scales had the ability to devour light, which he used to swallow the light and then attacked with the devoured light in the form of an energy beam.

[Radiant Singularity] was a perfect skill for him, as his crystal spires would devour light, which he would then put to better use with the skill. It might even become his ultimate ability due to its destructive capability.

Zomor immediately fell in love with the skill, and he chose it as the first skill he would purchase from the store. As for the price of 6 billion ultimate Sacred stones, it was nothing to him.

[Name: Radiant Path

Type: Movement

Level: God

Element: Light

Cultivation Level: Early to peak Sacred Monarch

Effect: The user transforms into an elemental being of pure light, transcending physical boundaries and traversing universes at incomprehensible speeds, guided by the radiant flow of celestial energy.

Description: This is a skill of unimaginable movement capability, allowing the user to control the potential of the light element to travel. The user merges into the essence of light, abandoning all physical limitations and combining with the radiant streams that bind reality.

…

This is a skill of inconceivable power, but it comes at an equally unimaginable expense. Activating it requires an enormous amount of energy and the user to channel the essence of their spiritual and elemental power. Overuse can weaken the user’s soul and will lead to temporary disconnection from the physical plane. It also requires the user to possess an unshakable will and mastery over the light element, as even the slightest hesitation can scatter their essence across the dimension.

Price: 9,000,000,000 ultimate Sacred stones.]

Zomor read the details on the twenty-seventh card he had pulled out from the third row. It was another skill he already had but upon reading the details, he immediately fell in love with it.

[Radiant Path] had endless potential when it came to its uses, and Zomor already liked the version he had, so he couldn’t reject the upgraded version from the store. He then moved on to the row above.
