The First Store System

Chapter 446: Result(2)

Only the outer skin was left before Hartol could complete his eleventh reformation and pass the third stage.

“Boom!”

Suddenly, a loud explosion rang in the sky as Hartol exploded into pieces.

Everyone looked shocked on the ground, including Aakesh. Even though he had stopped watching it a while ago, he still believed that Hartol would pass this stage.

“What just happened?” Votayl asked with a shocked look on his face as he couldn’t believe that Hartol had blasted into pieces.

Just a moment earlier, Hartol was only a step away from passing, and now, it had all come to naught.

After the blast, the heart also exploded into pieces, resulting in failure, but then suddenly, something unimaginable happened.

The body pieces that had flown after the sudden blast started coming closer as if there was some attraction force pulling them toward themselves.

A surprised expression appeared on Aakesh’s face as even he couldn’t see through the force pulling the body pieces together. He was only sure of one thing: it wasn’t Hartol but some higher-level energy.

“Hey, system, why isn’t the Multiverse acting against this interference?” Aakesh asked the system in his mind since an unfamiliar attraction force acting to reform Hartol’s body was surely an interference in the Primal tribulation.

[Host, the system #

“Eh!” Aakesh couldn’t help but exclaim in shock as the system’s words started jumbling, resulting in an incomprehensible sentence.

Even he, who had learned so many languages, couldn’t comprehend what the system wanted to say.

[Host, outside interference detected!]

While Aakesh had a surprised expression, another system alert rang inside his head and informed him of a sudden outside interference in the store.

Aakesh wanted to ask another question, but suddenly the scene in the sky grabbed all his attention.

The purple thunder that had been staying silent suddenly started razing around.

They then began striking Hartol, even when the body was still approaching to get attached. It looked to be the end of the Primal tribulation as everyone, excluding Aakesh, who knew about the tribulation, thought that the Multiverse was angry. ɴ(O)ᴠᴇʟ

But then another miraculous scene occurred in front of everybody.

The purple thunder that struck Hartol’s body pieces started helping them to attach, instead of destroying them.

Time flew by.

The rate of reformation suddenly grew severalfold due to the purple thunder, so only after six seconds, the reformed body presented itself to the public.

When the higher-level cultivators in the crowd looked toward the sky, they could feel that something was wrong with Hartol.

His eyes were lifeless, despite there being life present in Hartol.

“Rumble!”

The sky rumbled once more, and the remaining purple thunder in the sky gathered to form into a single bolt. It then struck Hartol.

Instead of causing any destruction, the thunder melted into Hartol’s body, giving him a sturdier feature. 

The next moment, Hartol’s energy level started having changes, as it began increasing at an unimaginable rate.

“Did you do this?” Aakesh, who was unaware of what was going on around him for the first time, heard a question.

He turned his head around and found a familiar figure. It was none other than Oxen.

Oxen weren’t alone this time, but all the eleven void beasts were present that time.

They all carried grave faces as they looked toward the sky, seeing the effects of the purple bolt.

Even for them, the sudden turnaround in tribulation was new.

Oxen thought the mighty figure behind the store was also behind the sudden situation in the Primal tribulation, so he asked Aakesh.

“No,” Aakesh replied and moved his eyes back toward the sky.

***

The sky started clearing out as the Primal tribulation in the sky came to an end. Due to Aakesh, there was not even a hint of damage on the land, so everything looked the same as before.

Hartol, on the other hand, still floated in the sky with the same lifeless eyes.

Votayl had an ugly face as he couldn’t understand what was going on at that point.

One second passed, two seconds passed,…, sixteen seconds passed, and just like that, three minutes had passed.

No change happened to Hartol during these past three minutes. The sky had cleared, and the environment had also returned to the situation before the Primal tribulation.

Since there was still a few hours left before the sunset, the sun was still at the top.

Finally, a change happened in Hartol as colors returned to his eyes.

If previously his eyes had brown pupils with a white sclera, they had now turned into golden pupils with black sclera, giving Hartol a strange yet terrifying appearance after his body had gotten even bulkier.

Votayl looked shocked, seeing the color change in Hartol’s eyes as it was unheard of. Hartol wasn’t the first Honaer to pass the Primal tribulation, there had been many like him, but none had such mutations in the history of the Honaer race.

After colors returned to Hartol’s eyes, he had a confused expression on his face. The last thing Hartol remembered was that he lost his consciousness midway when he was only a step away from passing the tribulation, but now he was here perfectly well and stronger than ever before.

He looked down at himself, and his jaw almost dropped to the ground, seeing what he saw.

The pocket space he had created after reaching Immortal had turned into a full-fledged world. It was nothing to feel surprised about since every cultivator who attained divinity would have a world of their own.t

What made Hartol this surprised was the life thriving inside it.

The time difference between the real world and Hartol’s world had reached a whopping 1:1,000,000, meaning when one second passed in the real world, a million seconds would have occurred.

Hartol could see a mosquito dying of old age, and then another taking birth.

‘How can my inner world be this stable when I have just reached this level?’ The question suddenly rose in his mind as creation warranted a stable world, and it took years for low-level Gods to do it.

While he was thinking, his eyes fell to the ground. He noticed the citizens looking at him with myriads of expressions on their faces.

His eyes then fell on the store owner. It was like something clicked at that moment inside his head as he wanted to rush at him.
