The First Store System



Chapter 1294: Elia's Struggles(12)

"Store owner, tell me about the store products," Elia asked Aakesh.

"The store currently sells six products…" Aakesh introduced the products and their basic details to the woman in no time.

Elia's cultivation was peak True God, so every product sold in the store was available for her. The only issue was money, and her coming from an extinct race didn't help the case either.

It had been several centuries since that war, and Elia had not only sustained herself but had also traveled an immense distance to come to the store. When the invasion happened, the store wasn't open in the Primal Dimension, let alone the Sacred Dimension.

Even after the restoration, she began her journey to the planet Curiele and Thorr City. What made it possible was an item in her hands.

Elia had no idea what happened after the explosion since she had fallen unconscious. When she returned to her planet and lost whatever little hope she had of her family's survival, she was ready to kill herself.

At that time, Elia couldn't even think in her dreams that she would be able to take revenge against the Supreme God intruder. She was only a late True God level cultivator, and her talent wasn't even close to that of her father, who stopped growing after reaching the intermediate Lesser God level. There was no way for her even to become a Lesser God, let alone achieve enough strength to take revenge.

That kind of hopelessness further pushed her to the brink, and she was ready to kill. It seemed the world didn't want Elia to die at that moment, so when she was about to crush her own heart using her hands, a space storm happened and devoured her.

When she opened her eyes, Elia found herself in an unfamiliar environment.

At that moment, she was standing in the center of a room with seven chairs surrounding her. Each chair was ten times her size and had an inhabitant sitting over it.

The seven beings sitting on the chair looked at her with surprised gazes, while Elia was terrified. But soon that terrified feeling turned into relief.

She had already made up her mind to leave the world, so what did it matter whether she did the deed herself or if someone else killed her? In fact, Elia found someone else killing her to be better than self-killing.

Seven chairs were arranged in a circle, with seven beings of different races sitting on them. Elia could see vibrant lifeforce emanating from every figure, but that was far from the truth.

Each figure had rotted with time as if they had been sitting here for countless years, with their levels being the same at Sacred Creators.

It was only the energy signatures left by their bodies that still had enough life force to be considered living beings.

Each of the seven energy signatures looked at each other after they scrutinized Elia. They were Sacred Creators when they were alive, so their sights were better than many.

Elia had no talent to speak of that could allow her to be summoned here. The room was a ruin left by a powerful Sacred Creator that existed countless years ago, and the seven beings sitting on the chairs were that figure's subordinates.

The inhabitants of the Sacred Dimension were immortal and had endless lives, but that wasn't the case for the seven subordinates.

Their loyalty to their master was such that they used their life force to sustain this ruin. It also showed just how old the ruin was.

Elia received a coin from that ruin, and that changed her destiny forever. That wasn't any random coin but an Ultimate level artifact.

Since Elia was only a True God level cultivator, she was unable to activate the artifact. The seven beings also knew that, so they decided to help her. They put enough energy in the coin, so that Elia had three coin flips, and each time she flipped, she would only have to part with one sub-level of her cultivation as the price.

The coin could save her life, as it was related to luck and could help her steer clear of some dangerous situations. The coin didn't only answer yes or no, but it also explained slight things after every flip, as extra information would appear in the owner's mind . The explanation only depended on the wording of the owner.

Elia used her first free flip to determine if she would be successful in exacting her vengeance. When the answer came back positive, she was elated and finally lost her will to kill herself. But at that time, she was suggested by the energy signatures to mind the wording of her questions, and that helped her during the second flip since it was there that she got the coordinates of the store.

The third flip helped her come here since it designed the best route for her to travel to the coordinates. The three flips also brought her cultivation to peak Divine Lord. Even though it was the best route, it was no easy feat because of her low cultivation. She came across many life-threatening situations, and the numerous scars spread across her face showed her struggle.

That coin was the solution to all her money problems. Elia knew how important and valuable that coin was since only because of it, she was here and had hopes of revenge. But at the same time, she also knew that ultimate items could only be controlled by Sacred Creators, and she had already used the three flips she had gotten by the grace of the seven beings in that ruin.

The coin was useless for her until she reached the Sacred Creator level, and she hadn't become that arrogant to believe that she would reach that level. So the better option for her was to sell the coin to the store owner and use the money from it to accelerate her growth.

"Store owner, will you buy this coin?" Elia asked after the introduction was over and took out the coin she had received from the ruin.
