Chapter 424: Chapter 424

Trihan and Xotak then stopped talking about the change in Aakesh as they didn’t want to offend Aakesh. They instead decided to enter the portal room, but then Trihan’s eyes fell on the meditating members of the Esh clan, and he stopped in his steps.

Xotak wasn’t aware of the situation, but Trihan was, so he couldn’t help but get disappointed.

“What happened?” Xotak asked, seeing his newly acquired student suddenly stopping.

Trihan didn’t say anything but pointed at the rule board and then the meditating customers.

Xotak followed Trihan’s pointed direction and noticed the rule about meditating customers.

A disappointed expression appeared on his face, understanding the reason behind Trihan’s suddenly stopping. They then looked at each other for a second and activated the supreme card since they had no interest in waiting twelve hours for their turn to arrive and then only staying for three hours inside Panagea.

The next moment, Xotak and Trihan both disappeared from the store and returned to their respective homes.

During all this duration, Aakesh remained in his relaxing mode, ignoring the expressions and conversations of the duo.

After the duo left, another round of silence fell on the store.

Time flew by, and around an hour had passed.

“Store owner, I want three Dharma Palace experience pills,” A peak Dharma Manifestation customer requested.

It was a new customer. The man was wandering the southern part of the Anga continent in the hope of a breakthrough to the Dharma Palace. While traveling in this part of the continent, he came across the store, and after learning about the store’s products, he decided to buy the pills.

“For what Dharma?” Aakesh expressionlessly asked the man. The Palace experience pill was different for every customer, depending on the element and Dharma/Tao/Law they practiced.

“I have three Dharma fruits. Store owner, why don’t you suggest me? Should I go for one pill for each Dharma Palace, or should I buy all three for one?” The man asked as he was confused about what to do.

“What are your Dharmas?” Aakesh expressionlessly asked, as suggesting the best available product was his duty as the store owner.

“Silver Fire, Raging Wind, Gentle Water,” The man responded and told the three Dharma fruits he had.

The silver fire was a pure offensive Dharma fruit and was one of the hottest and destructive types of flame. The raging wind was both offensive and movement, while Gentle water was defensive and healing Dharma fruit.

The man had three Dharma fruits that gave him a good balance of strength, defense, and movement.

Aakesh then took a glance at the man while the man felt himself standing naked in front of the store owner. He subconsciously attempted to reject Aakesh’s senses invading his body, but they were futile as if a shield made of paper standing against an ocean tsunami.

“Your movement is good enough, and you also don’t seem to lack offensive attacks. The only thing you’re lacking is a good defense, so if you want to ask me, I would suggest buying three pills for Gentle water Dharma fruit,” Aakesh expressionlessly told the man in a single breath.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

The man looked shocked and horrified byAakesh’s statement. With only a single glance, the store owner found his weakness.

“Thank you, store owner! Please give me three Dharma Palace experience pills for Gentle Water Dharma fruit,” The man then sincerely thanked Aakesh and decided to go ahead with the store owner’s suggestion.

Aakesh expressionlessly nodded, stood up from his chair, and went up to the counter.

After reaching the counter, he thought of the pills the man wanted, and the next moment, three Gentle Water Dharma Palace experience pills appeared on the fourth row.

Aakesh took the pills out, returned to his chair, and handed it to the man.

“You need to pay 45,000 superior Primal stones,” Aakesh expressionlessly told the man.

The man couldn’t help but get surprised, hearing the price lower than he had expected. He then took out the required amount from his space ring, and soon, a mountain of Primal stones appeared in the store.

Aakesh waved his hands, and the next moment, the mountain of Primal stones disappeared from the store. Soon, an alert of the amount being complete appeared in his head.

The man then thanked Aakesh once more and left the store as he couldn’t wait to experience the pill and hopefully go for a breakthrough.

Another new customer was waiting for Aakesh, so he sat down on his chair and began answering the questions.

Time flew by, and around ten minutes had passed.

Since there was no customer in the store, Aakesh was comfortably relaxing on his chair with closed eyes.

“Clomp!”

“Clomp!”

“Clomp!”

The silence inside the store got broken as the sound of heavy footsteps rang inside the store.

Aakesh opened his eyes as these were unfamiliar steps. He then looked at the source of sound only to find a familiar being entering the store.

It was a figure disguised as humans but was around ten times the size of ordinary humans, almost comparable to a young giant.

Before the breakthrough, Aakesh would’ve failed to see through the disguise and would’ve needed the help of the system, but now Aakesh easily saw through it.

The figure was none other than the Void beast he had met yesterday.

A night earlier,

Somewhere in the Primal dimension, there was a hall, and in it, there were twelve throne-like chairs, each one of them being larger than an upper-tier village.

All the twelve chairs were in a circular pattern, marking none to be superior and equal to each other.

“Why did you call all of us so urgently?” A being curiously asked. It was hard to define from the voice the gender of the speaker.

“Don’t let it be one of your silly jokes like in the past,” Another figure chimed in and smilingly commented.

“Let him speak first,” Another figure chimed in, its voice being emotionless.

“Yeah, let him speak first.” Several of the twelve seated figures commented.

The being in question, who called the meeting, couldn’t help but stupidly look at the figures asking to let him speak but still not shutting up.

The figure was none other than the Void beast who had just returned after accepting the summon and then surrendering to the opponent.

A/N: This would be enough for today. I know four chapters aren’t enough when there is a fourteen-chapter privilege tier, but I didn’t have a stock of chapters for the month due to several circumstances. I also owe you five chapters from the last month, so there is a large debt piled on me.

To clear my debt, I have decided to publish 3-to-4 chapters every day for the next week. So, show your support with GTs and Gifts(Only if you have extra coins). Please wait for the next week!
