5 Chapter 5- Shopping Spree at Heaven's Call
If any normal person walked into Heaven's Call, usually, their jaws would hit the ground. The inside was huge! On the outside, it looked grand and impressive filled with white and gold patterns. But compared to the inside, the outside was dirt!
"Just what is going on?! I can't see the roof of this building!" Wang Wei was clearly shocked.
An assistant noticed his expression and chuckled. She walked over and started to explain, "Heaven's Call is a very special establishment. We use an inter-dimension array to control the size inside our store. That means that if you start causing a ruckus, it is very easy to dispel and banish you. Therefore, everyone is safe, and robberies cannot occur because the items sold here are actually not in this dimension. Of course, they will be given to you after payment. The items that you can see are holograms and everything is the same. You can touch them, gauge their weight, and in special cases use them."
Wang Wei turned around to see where the voice came from and saw the assistant.
She looked very elegant in a white dress, just past her knees, and had a smile on her face.
"An inter-dimension array? Oh, so that is the case. I guess this proves that Heaven's Call is the real deal," Wang Wei laughed. "Thank you for giving me a general background Miss..." He tried to read her name tag, but before he could, she replied "Yin Meixiu at your service." She bowed slightly and said, "I am glad I could be of help. If you should require more assistance, please do not hesitate or call for me. The customer is always our #1 priority." Then, she walked away,
Wang Wei was somewhat surprised at how polite at how she was and was a little suspicious. However, he walked towards one of the selves and started to browse the wares of the most highly rated apothecary store.
"Hm? What is this?" Wang Wei asked looking at a blue orb. He read the description.

Wang Wei took a deep breath. "Well, this shows that Heaven's Call is deserving of its reputation. Useful items, scary price!"
He continued walking around. He originally thought that he would be able to buy a couple good things with the amount of money he had, but then he realized that he was just a frog at the bottom of the well.
Suddenly, he felt a humming in his chest. He then realized that the sword inside him was where it came from! Wang Wei was a little shocked but continued to follow where the humming got stronger.
Eventually, he landed in front of a pill.
-

A pill that strengthens the body
Impurity: 60%

When it comes to concocting pills, not all pills are equal. The pills that have the least amount of impurities are better than those with. The difference is akin to day and night. There are different ranks pills could be categorized: Mortal, Earth, Heaven, and God. God ranked pills are almost non-existent. Most people are lucky if they even see one, let alone be close enough to smell it.
"Such a pill is only uncommon within Horn's Peak and the amount of impurities is way too high. Why would this weapon want me to have it?" Wang Wei was doubtful. Then he remembered the hidden power of the sword. He immediately got out a notepad and wrote down "Body Strengthing Pill- 60%- 5"
He continued to wander for a long time before heading to the counter.
The lady there was writing something, but stopped and looked up at the person before her. "Making a purchase today sir?" she asked politely.
"Yup," Wang Wei said.
"I assume this is your first time, so let me explain the process. In order to shop at Heaven's Call, everyone needs a membership. They are ranked just like profound stones, green then blue, purple, yellow and red. In order to improve your membership, you can shop here and depending on the total price, is the number of points rewarded. The points are like green profound stones. 100 points to upgrade to blue, 10,000 points for purple, etc. Therefore, each first-time shopper needs to sign up with us. Is that okay with you?" she asked.
"A sign-up process? Sure, I don't mind."
"Name,"
"Wang Wei"
"Birth continent"
"Blue Continent"

"Well, all finished! Mr. Wang, you are officially a customer of Heaven's Call," she handed a green card over to Wang Wei. "Please give me your shopping list." Wang Wei did so.
In Heaven's Call, if one wanted an item, they would have to write a list or remember everything themselves. This means that if one is in a rush, they could just write a list of what they needed and the process would be much faster.
"Here you go. Five Body Strengthening Pills, ten Healing Pills, ten Recovery Pills, and five hours in our training room," the lady listed. "Your total is 18 blue profound stones and 75 points will be awarded to you for your purchase."
Wang Wei did the math before coming here, but it still hurt him to spend almost all his money.
"Thank you for shopping with us!" she said after receiving the payment.
Wang Wei headed for the training room. The reason he wanted to train here, is because he knew that he could not protect what he bought, therefore, he wanted to use them and increase his strength before appearing. Who knows what that sneaky Wang Fu could do?
The training room was very basic. Pretty small, but it was inside of an array, and anything broken is immediately fixed. "This place is just what I'm looking for. I must first cultivate, and if I have any extra time, I will practice my One with the Wind," he thought.
Wang Wei sat down and started to train. All of his thoughts vanished, and only the burning passion for strength remained. He looked at one of his Body Strengthing Pills and swallowed it.
