The Iridescent Bustard was a mesmerizing sight to look at. With a regal and proud stance, it stood tall and majestic, reaching a height of several thousand feet. Its body was adorned with radiant plumage that shimmered and changed color in the light, reflecting shades of fiery orange, iridescent blue, and vibrant green. The red feathers at the crest of its head stood honorably, resembling a crown of flames. Its wings, spanning an enormous width, were a blend of blues and greens, reminiscent of the surface of a crystal-clear lake in a forest.
Magnus's hands shook from shock as he held the card and read the effects of the characteristics on it.
The Iridescent Bustard was a legendary creature descending directly from the Primordial Garuda, one of the strongest beings in the Multiverse after Devas.
It was also the first child of Garuda, making the beast even more special. Since it was a direct descendant of Garuda, it should have been a top creature in the Primordial Dimension, but something happened that forced the only three Iridescent Bustards to descend into the Sacred Dimension.
The race then proliferated in the Sacred Dimension, and with time they became not only the overlord of the Beast group but also the Sacred Dimension.
But countless years ago, the Iridescent Bustards suddenly disappeared from the Sacred Dimension, never to be seen again. None knew where they went. And such was the legend made by them that even someone like Magnus, who lived in a closed society with not much knowledge of the outside world, still knew about them.
After calming down, Magnus returned his focus to the skills. The skills weren't that special, like the characteristics. They were only basic skills related to the elements.
He then came down to the price section, and his eyes almost popped out of their sockets. He didn't believe the cost at first, so he then looked at it again.
"Seventy-five thousand ultimate Sacred stones! I will have several peak Supreme Gods in my control if I pay them one Ultimate Sacred Stone," Magnus mumbled in shock.
Ultimate Sacred stone was a rare currency with incalculable value. It might be equal to one million supreme Sacred stones in conversion rates, but no one would exchange at that amount even if a few hundred thousand supreme stones were added.
Magnus didn't know that he was fortunate that the skills on the cards weren't that rare and powerful. More than 90 percent of the cost was due to the characteristics.
Magnus wasn't confident that he had even that kind of wealth, so he immediately went into the space inside the store card. Soon, Magnus was left disappointed.
The amount he had brought with him was several thousand short of the price. With his eyes brimming with disappointment, Magnus took a deep, helpless sigh and then placed the card in the card compartment.
Magnus didn't try to summon another beast any longer since he had already made up his mind to purchase the Iridescent Bustard. He then turned around and left the room. The summoning cost getting deducted from the card.
Magnus had come here after getting an epiphany and he was now certain that the Iridescent Bustard was the cause behind it.
The only issue was that it cost an extremely high number of stones, and Magnus had fallen short of that amount by a large margin.
Magnus didn't know whether he would stay awake for long or not since he had awoken earlier than intended. It was extremely tough for him to gather that amount.
Considering that, Magnus was only left with one choice. After leaving the beast's room, Magnus activated the store card.
The next moment, a white light covered him. It disappeared as quickly as it had arrived, and with it, Magnus had also vanished.
The next moment, Magnus found himself back in his cocoon. Since every Gorkin would fall into a deep sleep, there were custom cocoons made for everyone. They were immensely secure, as those were the creations of the Sacred Creators.
Not even one-billionth of a second had passed when a heavy pressure suddenly descended on Magnus. He wasn't surprised by it since he had expected it to happen the moment he activated the teleportation function of the store card.
The pressure wasn't kind to Magnus at all, as it knocked him to the ground. His face hit the surface directly. His cultivation as a late Supreme God seemed to mean nothing at that moment, as his face had no defense.
His nose was crushed, his jaws had cracked open, and half of his teeth had fallen out.
Magnus knew it was his punishment for attempting something like it. Not even a whole second had passed since Magnus returned to his cocoon, and Magnus was already severely injured.
The next moment, the world around Magnus turned dark. When the light returned to his eyes, he found himself in an enormous space with only one person present.
Magnus immediately knelt down with his head touching the ground since the man was none other than the only awake Sacred Creator in the race.
"Why did you break the rule?" The man asked.
Magnus tried to raise his head up to answer, but a heavy pressure descended and stopped him from doing it.
"Father, I have a great piece of information," Magnus responded.
Every Sacred Creator in the Gorkins was called father by the Gorkins who hadn't touched that level.
