It was a boring afternoon when the system's voice suddenly rang out in Lin Fan's head.

"Congratulations host, you have opened three branch stores with the same level of popularity as the main store and have completed the first main quest."

​​

"Host please receive the following rewards: Special Talisman, one chance to draw the God Tier Cultivation Technique Lucky Wheel, and one packet of God's Blood."

"Host, please accept your second main quest."

Lin Fan wasn't able to react right away, but then he was filled with excitement.

It had finally happened, he had finally finished the main quest!

Before he did anything else, Lin Fan immediately handed the shop over to Song Shu and Angela before running into a private room in the back. He made sure that no one would be able to disturb him by blocking the door and then he opened up the system interface to check the notifications he received.

He didn't even check the rewards that he had received before checking the second main quest.

He knew that he wouldn't be able to remain in this realm forever, so he was hoping that the second main quest would be related to the upper realm, but he was disappointed when he saw it. Rather, he wasn't just disappointed, he was completely confused by the description of the quest.

There was only a single line for the description and it was very simple.

"Reach the Soul Realm."

There was no time limit, there was no reward, there was no warning, it was just a single simple line.

It was almost as if the system was calling Lin Fan weak and wanted him to improve himself as soon as possible.

But that also did motivate Lin Fan since he had to admit that this was true.

Since that was the case, he had to prepare to break through and before that, there was one thing he needed to take care of. He would have to take care of it because it was a matter that weighed on his heart and prevented him from breaking through.

Lin Fan put this matter in the back of his head for now and turned to the rewards that he had received.

The first item was one that he didn't understand, but the other two were straightforward enough.

The God Tier Cultivation Technique Lucky Draw chance was indeed quite a special reward. So far, Lin Fan had only ever had a single God Tier Cultivation Technique which had allowed him to become unparalleled in his realm.

Lin Fan was only in the first realm of the Nine True Sun Body Art, but his body had been strong enough to match those in the Legendary Realm. Even if Lin Fan hadn't noticed this at first, how could he have not noticed it after fighting Legendary Realm Experts?

If just a single God Tier Cultivation Technique, not to mention one that was only a body developing technique was already this strong, what would happen if Lin Fan received a second one?

Lin Fan had never been able to use this draw because it had just cost too many points. It was like most of the other functions of the store, he was never able to use them since he was just a poor man.

As for the packet of God's Blood, Lin Fan was confused at first what it was, but after seeing the description, he knew that this was a real treasure.

The reason why beasts mutated was to obtain God's Blood and come closer to their origin, which would allow them to evolve their bloodline and become closer to divine beasts.

This was where the packet of God's Blood came in.

If it was used on a normal beast, it would allow that beast to become a single mutation beast. If it was used one a single mutation beast, it would allow that beast to become a second mutation best. So on and so on.

Lin Fan didn't hesitate to call out Brainy after reading this description.

Brainy had been the beast that had stuck with Lin Fan through thick and thin and was the first beast that he had caught himself. Not to mention that Brainy was the most useful beast out of all the beasts that he had since all the other beasts that he had were power type beasts. Brainy was the only pet that had supreme intelligence.

If Brainy could evolve and become a second mutated beast, there would be no doubt that this would give it even more special abilities that would be helpful. Since that was the case, Lin Fan had no reason to hesitate.

Once Brainy knew what this packet was, it immediately swallowed the liquid inside the vial. Once it had drunk all the liquid, it suddenly trembled before slumping down in Lin Fan's hand.

Lin Fan hadn't been worried when he watched it drink the liquid since he had never doubted the system before, but when he saw Brainy slump down, he couldn't help feeling a little worried.

Brainy's exhausted voice suddenly rang in his mind, "Master, it's fine. I need to go into hibernation to process this and once I'm finished, I'll be able to evolve."

Lin Fan relaxed when he heard this, but then he thought of another problem as he asked, "What about the puppets that you have, will they be able to break free of your seeds?"

Brainy said, "Master, it's fine, I've left a seed of spiritual sense in the pet storage space. As long as that doesn't shatter, it will control all the seeds until I wake up."

Lin Fan nodded at this before sending Brainy into the pet storage space. Before sending it in, he said, "Sleep well."

Brainy was too tired to reply as it directly entered the pet storage space. All that met Lin Fan's words was silence.

Lin Fan didn't mind that and turned his attention to the final item, the Special Talisman.

The description of the system said: "An unknown talisman, it has a special function."

Lin Fan couldn't make sense of this and even after pulling it out of the system's storage space, he couldn't seem to find anything special about it. The only thing he knew was that the moment he sent his spiritual sense into the Special Talisman, it would be immediately cut off. It was almost as if there was a special world inside the talisman where nothing could escape at all.

Lin Fan couldn't make heads or tails of it, so he threw it back into his system storage space for now.

Next, it was time for the one thing that Lin Fan had been putting off for the longest time. It was finally time for Lin Fan to level up his store.

Lin Fan had been putting it off for the longest time because each time he did, the system would suddenly spring another special quest on him or something similar, but he had to admit that the first level up did give up quite a few good things.

The basic store only allowed him to sell pet food and train pets, but once he upgraded the store, it had given him the cultivation farming realms and the pet incubation chambers. It had allowed him to solve two critical parts of his store, the supply line and the lack of problems.

He was hoping that by leveling up the store this time, it would give him something else to sell in his store since he did need points as soon as possible.

He was limited by the number of things that he could sell in his store and without being able to sell more things, he was unable to get more points.

Even with four stores, up to this point, after spending all his points last time, he had finally saved up another ten million points.

Those ten million points were everything that he had and he couldn't just give the store more money for more points even if he was raking in the money.

Those ten million points were only enough for a single Fragmented Soul Realm Artifact from the system's store and if he were to head to the upper realm, he definitely needed more than that.

So, Lin Fan finally decided to steel himself and level up the store.

"Host, do you confirm that you wish to level up the store?"

Lin Fan hesitated a bit before saying, "Yes."

"The shop has been upgraded to level 2."

"The pet accessory function has been unlocked."

"The facilities will now be built."

This second level had cost Lin Fan 10000 points, ten times what it had cost him the first time, but that was still a small amount for Lin Fan. After all, Lin Fan was now a millionaire when it came to points.

There was a sudden rumble in the store before it quickly ended.

The people in the store felt the rumble, but then all of them went back to what they were doing since things like this were natural in a cultivation world.

The only person who had a different expression was Angela since she could feel the spatial laws that came from the store. It seemed like the master of the store was changing things up.

Lin Fan didn't bother checking the new facilities just yet, he went back up to the main floor to sit back down behind the counter.

His quest had been completed and he had now upgraded his store, there was only one thing left for him to do now.

It was time for him to go home.
