Inside his room, Jiu Shen was sitting cross-legged as he tried to cultivate his own cultivation technique. His eyes were shut tight as he absorbed the energy from the pile of God Crystals around him. Because of his Seamless Deity Physique, there was almost no need for Jiu Shen to train a cultivation technique since he only needed to absorb energy from pills and natural resources. However, Jiu Shen still wanted to try cultivating the technique that he had made after breaking through to the Heavenly God Realm during his past life. It was his most prized possession in his peak and it was only after a moment of enlightenment that he was able to make it.

"According to the system, I would not need any cultivation technique to further my cultivation, but it would be a pity if I couldn't use that technique. Maybe I should try it out..." Jiu Shen silently recalled the method he had written and followed the steps thoroughly. He guided the true essence from the God Crystals towards the acupoints in his body. The true essence inside his body followed the route that Jiu Shen had guided them into, slowly strengthening his physical body, soul power, and his dantian.

​​

When Jiu Shen discovered that the effect of his training in his cultivation method was slightly better compared to refining and absorbing pills, his indifferent eyes suddenly lit up. "It seems like my Seamless Deity Physique works well with my Boundless Celestial Heart Wave Method. This is much better. At least I don't have to gather pills or resources to advance my cultivation. As long as I gather sufficient true essence, breaking through is no longer a problem."

The God Crystals around Jiu Shen turned dim and lost their luster before turning into dust. He then opened his eyes and abruptly stood up. He gathered his true essence and was slightly disappointed by the small increase in his strength.

"I reached the peak stage of the Nascent God Realm after absorbing the energy of all my resources. Too bad. Just a little bit more and I would have reached the Origin God Realm..." He sighed as he shook his head.

"I think it's about time to find the core item for my own wine recipe. I scoured the entire Divine Beast Continent, but the system was unsatisfied with the spiritual plants that I've gathered. Perhaps that thing would be approved by the system." Jiu Shen muttered as he thought of a spiritual plant located somewhere in the Crimson Fiend Continent. To make matters simple, this spiritual plant was near Morlon City.

With that in mind, Jiu Shen went out of his room and walked upstairs. When he came to the first floor where the dining area was located, he saw Burlock sitting solemnly on a chair. The latter's thoughts seemed to be occupied that he failed to notice Jiu Shen's arrival.

"Master!" Xiaoxiao and Meimei greeted Jiu Shen when they saw him.

"Greetings, master!" Blue also greeted Jiu Shen.

When Burlock heard the three women, he raised his head and saw Jiu Shen looking at him with an indifferent look. The demon's heart chilled when he saw Jiu Shen's expression and he thought that the human was angry for failing to notice him. He hurriedly stood up and put on an apologetic smile as he greeted. "Greetings, Wine Master Jiu Shen!"

Jiu Shen waved his hand indifferently at their greeting. He then turned his gaze to Blue and asked. "How's business?"

Blue smiled at him and replied humbly. "Master, four guests came here earlier and they ordered a couple of Sword Divinity Ardent Spirit. They also wanted to order takeouts, but we rejected them politely."

"Just four?" Jiu Shen already expected that business would be slow since it was still the first day of opening, but he did not think that it would be this slow.

"Master, those four people are the Demon Lords of Morlon City. They brought their subordinates with them, but they did not let their subordinates come inside the store. They might have been wary of our store since they have no prior information about us. However, I am certain that they would bring more people with them the next time they visit us." Blue said with confidence. Meimei and Xiaoxiao who stood behind her nodded their heads in agreement. They were confident in their master's wine.

Burlock who was silent gathered his courage and spoke. "Wine Master Jiu Shen, those four are my peers. They might have been polite and humble earlier, but that was only because they were wary of Wine Master Jiu's power. They also don't have any information about your level of cultivation and they don't even know your identity as a human. However, once they find out about this, they would certainly inform Demon Ancestor Jun. When that time comes, Wine Master Jiu Shen's store might face the wrath of the whole Morlon City."

Burlock's expression turned graver after saying those words. He was worried that something would to Jiu Shen and the wine store. Of course, he was also worried that he would be implicated because of his current identity as Jiu Shen's subordinate. Initially, the thought of escaping came into his mind, but as prideful as he was, he hurriedly discarded those cowardly thoughts.

Contrary to his expectations, Burlock did not even see an ounce of change in Jiu Shen's expression. His eyes remained tranquil and calm as if nothing in the world could make him waver. At that moment, Burlock felt that the human would not even blink if the sky collapses. He could only sigh in admiration to Jiu Shen for being able to stay composed under such circumstances. If it was him, he might have already flown into a state of panic.

"I'll go out for a while to get something. As for your worry, don't think too much about it. If they really want to come to my store with unkind intentions, then let them go here." Jiu Shen said expressionlessly. His words made the burly demon's mouth turn agape in shock. If he did not know Jiu Shen's personality, he would have believed that this guy had gone crazy.
