The Immortal's Wine Store

Looking at the sleeping Burlock, Jiu Shen shook his head. "To think that a demon had actually drunk himself to sleep after drinking one bottle of wine. Even those mercenaries in the Profound Dragon Continent weren't as weak-willed as this guy." He muttered in disdain.

Burlock had indeed drunk himself to sleep, but the reason for that was because it was the first time he had drank wine with such effects. It can even induce a slight increase in his physical power! And with the wine's flavorful taste and strong medicinal properties, Burlock who wasn't a drinker was immediately put into sleep.

Blue and the two ladies walked towards Burlock and poked his face a few times, but the demon still had no reactions whatsoever.

"This demon is too funny! Hahaha!" Blue, Xiaoxiao, and Meimei laughed as they made fun of the sleeping Burlock.

"Alright. Knock it off. The store will be opening in an hour. Wake up that fellow before you open the store and make sure to treat our guests well." Jiu Shen said to the three mischievous girls.

Blue and the other two nodded their heads in reply. "Yes, master!"

"I'll leave the store in your care. I'll go out for a moment, but you must behave while I'm away." Jiu Shen said before leaving the store.

He wasn't worried that no one will come to his store. With this branch store's striking appearance and refreshing atmosphere, some curious demons would surely go inside to check the place. They might be speechless about the prices at first, but they will eventually discover its value.

With that in mind, Jiu Shen soared through the skies with a light tap of his foot. He left behind a streak of white light as he flew above the skies.

When Jiu Shen reached a height of two thousand meters above the ground, he stopped his ascent and took a glance at the city down below. He compared the map inside his head to the sight beneath him and discovered that everything was perfect. "Morlon City is almost as large Beltran City. This place isn't even the capital of this demon country, but it is almost as large as Silver Wing Empire's capital city." He muttered to himself.

"According to Burlock, there are five Demon Lords here including him. I might as well check the other four Demon Lords while I'm at it." Jiu Shen swept his spiritual gaze over the entire Morlon City. Countless amounts of information surfaced in his mind as he scanned everyone in the city. Everyone's faces and their cultivation level were seen through by him in just a matter of seconds! However, not one of them was even able to discover his presence.

Until...

Hm?!

An old demon who was cultivating inside a small wooden hut abruptly opened his eyes. Just a second ago, he felt a scrutinizing gaze scanning over him and he even felt that everything about him was seen through.

"Who is it?! Show yourself!" The old demon might be advanced in age, but his stature was still healthy and vigorous. If not for the wrinkles on his face and his graying hair, anyone would have believed that he was a middle-aged man.

The old demon glanced around him suspiciously. He sent out his spiritual power to observe the ten thousand-meter area around him, but he failed to notice the owner of that powerful gaze. This made his body feel a bit cold. There could only be two reasons why he failed to sense the other party. First, the owner of that gaze was significantly stronger than him or that person had a much stronger spiritual power. Whether it was the first or the second reason, the old man would still not dare face against that kind of expert.

He had been cultivating for too long, and this was the first time he had been this anxious after so many years. "Who is that person? Why is an expert at that level here in Morlon City? Is he an enemy or a friend?" The old man muttered to himself with a deep frown on his face.

The old man went out of the small hut and glanced at the bustling city beneath him. His small hut was located on top of a mountain and he was able to observe the entire Morlon City from up there.

"Should I report this to the Demon King?" The old man thought for a moment before shaking his head.

"I should remain here at this moment and observe Morlon City for a while. If nothing happens, I will report my encounter to His Majesty." The old man muttered before going back to the small hut.

Behind the clouds, above the skies, Jiu Shen glanced at the tall mountain with a look of interest. "That brat must be the Demon Ancestor Jun that Burlock talked about. His strength is not ordinary and he is already at the peak stage of the Origin God Realm. Just a step away from breaking through the Void God Realm. It seems like Nuar is not an ordinary world..."

At first, Jiu Shen thought that Nuar was simply an ordinary mortal planet, but after all he had seen, he assumed that there might be more interesting things about it.

In his previous life, it took him billions of years before he reached the Heavenly God Realm. The path of cultivation will start to slow down and become harder after one reaches the Void God Realm. Many geniuses in the Primordial God Realm were stuck at this level and even those with superior physiques were not an exception. Only the most elite of individuals managed to overcome the Void God Realm.

After one becomes a Nascent God Realm expert, their lifespans will reach up to tens of thousands of years and it will further increase as their cultivation level grows higher, but the speed of their cultivation will also start to decline. Jiu Shen was certain that the strongest expert in Nuar was only at the Void God Realm.

"It's a good thing that these demons abided by the agreement made by their ancestors fifty thousand years ago. If not, the inhabitants of the Profound Dragon Continent might already be goners..."
