The Immortal's Wine Store Chapter 313
Advertisement
Jiu Shen stepped inside the lotus-shaped building and he felt slightly reluctant to step on the floor when he saw that it was made from pure Sun Moon Divine Wood. If this was used as a material in forging a weapon, the resulting weapon would certainly be amongst the strongest Celestial-rank weapons even in the Primordial God Realm! However, such a precious material was actually used as a mere flooring in this store...
With a bit of reluctance, Jiu Shen walked inside the new store.
The lotus building has three floors in total and Jiu Shen was currently on the first floor. Everything inside the store screamed luxury and it was unknown what kind of commotion it would cause in this demon city once everyone takes notice of it.
Even the Silveria Imperial Family's imperial hall completely pales in comparison to everything in this store. From the crystal-clear glass window, the smooth porcelain wall, the precious wooden floor, none looked mediocre. Just sitting inside this store could make anyone's cultivation soar at unimaginable speed!
The first floor alone could already fit more than a hundred customers and it was still spacious.
"Let me check the wine storage." Jiu Shen muttered to himself as he walked towards the wine storage of the store.
Along the way, Jiu Shen also noticed a few spiritual plants placed in pots, making the store look more aesthetically pleasing. All those spiritual plants were at least at the Nascent-rank, but despite seeing this, Jiu Shen remained calm. After all, these spiritual plants meant nothing compared to the materials used in making the store. Even the fence outside was millions of times more precious than the spiritual plants, so Jiu Shen did not place much thought into it.
Inside the wine storage, Jiu Shen saw rows upon rows filled with glittering wines. From the looks of it, the system had already prepared the store's first batch of wine. With this, Jiu Shen no longer had to brew the wines himself since everything was already prepared.

"What's this? Is this a new wine?" Jiu Shen frowned upon seeing an unfamiliar type of wine. In Beltran City's branch, this wine definitely did not exist, so he was perplexed when he saw it.
Ding!
"Host, this is a unique wine in this branch store, the Blade Divinity Ardent Spirit." The system suddenly answered Jiu Shen's confusion with a cold and mechanical voice.
"I see. This name doesn't sound like a normal wine. What effects does it have?" Jiu Shen asked the system as he observed the bottle of wine filled with scarlet liquid.
Ding!
"The Blade Divinity Ardent Spirit can stimulate the consumer's proficiency in weapon intent. Upon consumption, their weapon intent will experience a breakthrough." The system answered in the same mechanic voice, but its words made Jiu Shen a bit surprised.
"Weapon Intent? Interesting." Jiu Shen muttered to himself upon hearing the system's words.
Weapon Intent is related to a cultivator's proficiency in using their weapons. For instance, a sword expert with great proficiency in swordsmanship would one day gain enlightenment in Sword Intent, making his sword skills even sharper and imposing. A swordsman with Sword Intent was more than a dozen times stronger than those without Sword Intent. So the value of this new wine was immeasurable just with its ability to enhance a cultivator's weapon intent!
"How much is it?" Jiu Shen asked the system. He was curious how much a bottle of wine with such effects would be.
Ding!
"The Blade Divinity Ardent Spirit is worth 500 True Crystals or 500 Blood Stones." The system replied immediately.
Blood Stone is a type of crystal that was unique to the Crimson Fiend Continent. This crystal can be refined to speed up the progress of a body enhancer's cultivation.

"Hm, it's quite cheap for such a precious wine." Jiu Shen said as he returned the wine bottle in place.
Although he wanted to try the wine for himself, he was not in a hurry.
After seeing that there were no more new wines, Jiu Shen stepped out of the wine storage and went to the kitchen.
The kitchen of this store was twice as large as the one in Beltran City. Furthermore, the kitchen tools here were also of better quality and standard. Suddenly, Jiu Shen saw something at the corner of the kitchen and his eyes flashed with curiosity upon seeing it.
"An item with this much space power... It looks like it works similar to a space ring." Jiu Shen said as he glanced at the crystalline rectangular box.
Jiu Shen inspected it closely and he became even more interested in it. "What is this?" He muttered as he pulled the rectangular box open.
"Indeed. This is an item similar to a space ring. Just that, the space inside this item is more stable and firm. It can also hold a living object inside. The time in this space seems to be... it's moving so slowly?" Jiu Shen could see the items inside the rectangular box and there were living creatures inside. However, what made him astonished was because the time inside this space was moving at a snail's pace. No. Even a snail was faster than the movement of time here.
'If I get inside here and cultivate for thousands of years, wouldn't I be invincible?' Jiu Shen thought to himself.
Ding!
"Host, only ingredients can be placed inside here. A living being's soul would immediately dissipate upon entering this space." The system's words made Jiu Shen sigh in disappointment.
"Nevermind."
He closed the rectangular box and went out of the kitchen.
He was satisfied with everything he had seen so far. After looking at every corner of the first floor, Jiu Shen proceeded upstairs.
As Jiu Shen ascended the stairs, he felt that the true essence around him was slowly becoming more concentrated and thick. Although it was not enough to stimulate his true essence, he knew that it would have a more astounding effect on others.
With his one-of-a-kind physique, it would take more than this to stimulate his true essence. However, the same thing could not be said to other cultivators. After all, their physical constitution was not as exaggerated as his body.
"Looks like the things upstairs are also precious." He smiled as he opened the door to the second floor.

Corpse Crawler
Ludwig Lock wakes up in a hospital bed to find a weeping woman at his side. After some crying, more weaping and confusion, Ludwig discovers that that lady was his ten year old sister, and that he's been in a coma for fifteen years. He also learns that the world he had grown to know was no more since heroes, villains, and super powers inhabit the streets, being regarded as a lot of things withing an endless spectrum. Just when he was about to finally get started with his new life, Ludwig faced a streak of bad luck, the last event of this chain setting him up to die so a vigilante can save himself. After suffering the worst beating of his life and experimenting the incompetence of the law, Ludwig decides to use his own hands to achieve justice. He will face difficult challenges, traumatic situations, and probably horrible stuff to get his life rolling. But at least he's got a friend to help him. Not a normal one though. ---- IMPORTANT: I personally identify powers as a fantastical element, which is why I don't find weird the addition of other elements of the same vein if it stays within the logic of the world. New and old chapters get updated with relative frequency, (new chapter every week, though it may be delayed a day or more to problems or some other reason) and the story is in a draft-like state, meaning it will probably stay the same but there will be changes on the prose or writing. Also, I would apreciate if it is known to me (Respectfully) which points should I improve on.

Glitch — Alpha [Swedish] [Svenska]
Otilia jobbar på förskolan när ett barn försvinner rakt framför ögonen på henne. Sekunder efteråt kommer barnet tillbaka, som att inget hänt. Hon tror att hon är överarbetad, men när försvinnanden börjar hända överallt och de som kommer tillbaka inte är sig själva, förstår Otilia att något, någonstans gått riktigt snett. När hon och hennes pojkvän får en idé om vad som kan vara orsaken gör de allt för att informationen ska komma fram till rätt personer. Detta är en skräck/thriller som innehåller ganska mycket blod och våld. Även mot och med barn. Om detta stör dig råder jag att du håller dig borta. Detta är också den första boken jag någonsin skrev (2015, och knappt rörd sedan dess) och var ämnad att bli en trilogi. Eftersom den bara har legat och skräpat i hårddisken under alla dessa år tänkte jag att jag lika gärna kunde släppa den här. Trevlig läsning! ********* For English readers: (Might as well add this information in English to save the lovely souls looking through our works some time) I probably won't translate this work, but I'm working on another translation within YA, if that's something you'd be interested in. This one's horror/thriller, so.. yeah. Maybe sometime in the future. Otilia works at a daycare when a child disappears. Seconds later, the child reappears, like nothing had happened. She thinks she's worked too much, but when disappearences start to happen all around the globe, she and her boyfriend realize that something has gone really, really wrong. When they get an idea about what could be the cause, no matter how unbelievable, they will do everything in their power to get the information to the right people. This was my first-ever-novel and my first gamelit story (though I had no idea that was a thing/genre at the time). This novel contains a lot of violence and blood and can be uncomfortable to read for some people. There is also some violence from, and off-screen violence to, children.
