Chapter 627
The customers then looked at themselves only to notice that none of them had gotten a golden light surrounding them.
“Store owner, did you add even more virtual portals?” One of the customers suddenly asked as only when the number of virtual portals would increase the golden light process would disappear for some time.
Aakesh, who had just sat on his chair, looked at the customer and expressionlessly nodded.
“Aakesh, how many portals did you add this time?” Evelyn asked Aakesh.
“Let me tell you about the increased time flow rate feature of Panagea,” Aakesh looked at Evelyn, moved his eyes away, ignored her question, and then suddenly stated.
“The increased time flow rate!”
“The increased time flow rate!”
“The increased time flow rate!”
Several exclaims rang in the store as not everyone had a supreme card or a relative with it, so they only knew about this feature of Panagea now.
“Yes, Panagea would have a new feature from today,” Aakesh gestured to everyone to stay silent and then expressionlessly commented.
Aakesh still didn’t give the customers any time to respond as he started sharing the time flow rate with every customer and the charges they needed to pay for their respective services.
“…, If you want to enjoy the time flow rate three times the Primal dimension. You need to pay 50 top Primal stones as the entry cost and 25 top Primal stones per hour stay cost,” Aakesh concluded, sharing the cost.
Many customers couldn’t help but heave a sigh filled with disappointment and regret as they couldn’t even afford the time flow rate 1.5 times the Primal dimension, let alone three times the flow rate.
“Store owner, customers, staying in Panagea for different time flow rates, wouldn’t that mess the timeline in Panagea?” A customer suddenly asked as he couldn’t see how it could make sense. The time wouldn’t increase only for the adventurers, but it would also increase for the area where the adventurer was. If an area saw three times the time flow rate, and the nearest area saw the same time rate, it would mess up the power system of Panagea.
At the same time, there was another question in the minds of several customers. What if a customer who bought three times the time flow rate enters the area where there was already an adventurer but had a lower time flow rate, for whom the system would take precedence.
“The time flow rate would be similar for everybody inside Panagea,” Aakesh expressionlessly answered.
Many customers who understood what it meant couldn’t help but look in surprise at each other. The leaderboard in Panagea was already filled with hundreds of millions of names, and now that would grow even further.
“Store owner, would the Panagea hour’s reward from the leaderboard depend upon Panagea or the Primal dimension?” Maria suddenly asked as she had been leading the leaderboard since the reward system’s inception.
“Primal dimension hours,” Aakesh expressionlessly replied since the reward system had gotten created, keeping the Primal dimension hours in mind.
Maria couldn’t help but have an exciting expression since she still hadn’t used the reward she had gotten for staying at the top for consecutive fifty years.
Time flew by.
The customers then started leaving toward the portal room. Those who had cards went to the portal rooms straight away, while those who didn’t own any of the three cards went to the store owner and paid for their services.
[Host, you need to promote the store products!]
Suddenly a mechanical and emotionless voice rang inside Aakesh’s head. Aakesh couldn’t help but shake his head as he knew what the system was implying. He had willingly not introduced the cultivation arts since it was morning. Aakesh decided to wait for the first group to leave the portal room, and then he would reveal the product to them.
As for why the customers did not notice another open room in the store, Aakesh had closed it before opening the store.
Aakesh’s eyes then fell on the sole person standing inside the store, looking around the store with a mixture of tension and awe in his eyes.
Since the man was a new customer, Aakesh didn’t close his eyes to begin his relaxation session and waited for the man to approach him.

Ben couldn’t stop himself from entering the store, and as soon as he entered, his eyes fell on the endless quantity of Kadamba on the floor. He couldn’t help but feel a pang in his heart as his family, who had several peak Immortals in their ranks, couldn’t even afford Kadamba the size of his height. They only had an armor that used Kadamba in its creation, and that too belonged to the leader of his family.
Meanwhile, Ben was also filled with awe and fear as he pondered the identity of the store owner. Ben could see that the Kadamba used on the floor alone was worth more than what many top organizations could earn in their lives.
As the store hall turned empty and only he and the mysterious blue-skinned store owner remained, Ben felt a tension he had never felt before. Especially when he was at the receiving end of the expressionless stare of the store owner.
‘Maybe the store and the store owner could help me leave this damn cultivation level and have a breakthrough,’ Ben suddenly thought in his heart.
As soon as the thought arose in his heart, he couldn’t stop himself from stepping forward. He gathered his courage and finally reached the store owner.

Aakesh, who had been waiting for the man to come so that he could begin his relaxing session, looked at the man as he stood in front of him with a face filled with tension and nervousness.
“Hello, senior, I am Ben,” The man bowed and respectfully greeted and introduced himself to Aakesh.
“I am Aakesh,” Aakesh expressionlessly replied and told his name to Ben.
“What store products do you sell, store owner?” Ben then asked as standing every moment felt like an eternity to him, and he wanted to stay as far as away from the store owner.
