Only after returning home did Zhou Sui finally breathe a sigh of relief.
After all, the outside world was too perilous, fraught with the threat of foreign Cultivators at any time, returning home was safer where few dared to intrude.
Because this house was protected by a first-order Defensive Array, ordinary Cultivators would have difficulty infiltrating without great sacrifice.
"Devour."
As he calmed down, without hesitation, Zhou Sui immediately placed all the materials into the Gu Divine Bowl.
Splash~~~
In an instant, the Gu Divine Bowl thoroughly devoured these materials, merging them together, consuming a vast amount of Spirit Stones, then a chubby dark-gold bug appeared in the bowl, writhing comfortably and lazily.
Then, a wave of information pierced into the deepest part of his Sea of Consciousness.
"Wine Bug, one of the Heavenly Earthly Strange Insects, a peculiar insect found in wine, can miraculously transform decay into spirituality, turning common wine into Spiritual Wine, transforming first grade Spiritual Wine into higher grade wines.
Spiritual Wine refined by this Wine Bug is incredibly useful; it not only enhances the power of a Qi Refiner's True Yuan but also refines their Qi and enhances their physique. It is replete with benefits, driving people into a mad frenzy over it."
Suddenly, a joyful look appeared on Zhou Sui's face; though the Wine Bug lacked any combat power, it was his best means of making money. With Wine Bug, he could refine a large amount of Spiritual Wine.
Undoubtedly, this wasn't just Spiritual Wine, it was a pile of Spirit Stones.
With this realization, he promptly took out a jar of common wine from his body. This was casually purchased when he was buying supplies earlier; he bought nearly twenty jars for the purpose of turning it into Spiritual Wine.
Gurgle gurgle~~
The Wine Bug seemed to have smelled the aroma of the wine and was immediately excited. It instantly plunged into the jar, gulping down the wine just like a drunkard.
In no time, the jar of wine was emptied completely.
Zhou Sui was initially uncertain about how the Wine Bug would transform this common wine, but the next second, the Wine Bug belched and spat out a large amount of wine from its stomach, like a fountain.
Splash~~~
Only a few moments later, a significant amount of Spiritual Wine was produced in the jar, releasing a fragrant aroma, radiating a golden light; it was mysterious and fascinating.
But the volume of the wine was only half of what it was before.
Even so, it was quite astonishing. With only half the wine lost, the common wine was transformed into Spiritual Wine, like turning decay into magic, usurping the wonders of heaven and earth.
"This is incredible."
Zhou Sui gazed upon this jar of Spiritual Wine, the fragrance tantalizing his senses, creating an urge within him, like every cell of his body expressing a parched craving.
It was as if his body was yearning to devour this Spiritual Wine; there were huge benefits to his body from this Spiritual Wine.
Gurgle gurgle~~
Though Zhou Sui wasn't a wine drinker, he was fully enthralled by the intoxicating aroma, and he began to drink it heartily.
In an instant, he felt that once the Spiritual Wine was swallowed, it immediately transformed into a refined energy, flowing into his meridians, bubbling into his limbs and his body.
At that moment, he perceived that every pore of his body exuded a fragrant aroma, while the power of True Yuan within his body visibly increased at a rapid pace.
Thump!
In an instant, Zhou Sui's body shook as he sensed one of his meridians being instantly penetrated by the vast power of True Yuan.
Qi Condensation Third Level!
Under normal cultivation, he should have needed several months to possibly break through to the third level of Qi cultivation, but now, after one drink of Spiritual Wine, his Cultivation soared.
This was equivalent to saving several months of grueling cultivation.
So, his Cultivation had broken through in one fell swoop, becoming a Third Level Cultivator, his body's True Yuan strength had also greatly increased, with an abundant surge of True Yuan circulating within his meridians.
Even the power of his soul had grown to some extent.
The advancement to each state of a Cultivator brings about an all-round evolution.
"No wonder so many cultivators crave Spiritual Wine, the effect of Spiritual Wine is just too good,"
Zhou Sui was in awe.
Although he had heard of the great name of Spiritual Wine before, Spiritual Wine was too expensive, and whenever it appeared, it was immediately bought by others. The average cultivator simply had no chance to buy any.
Because of this, Zhou Sui had never had a chance to taste Spiritual Wine.
Now he understood why Spiritual Wine was so popular. The effect was on par with Pills, yet without any toxicity, hence making it a favourite among cultivators.
If it wasn't for the scarcity of Spiritual Wine, perhaps no one would be willing to take Pills.
Undoubtedly, the Wine Bug was like a god of wealth. With it, making money was only a trivial matter.
The only worry now was that accumulating too many Spiritual Stones might draw the malice of others.
......
Late at night.
Ji Bingyu, Mu Ziyi, and Xia Jingyan, who had been out for a day, finally returned. The three women were travel-worn and obviously had some tough battles outside, their bodies wafted a faint smell of blood.
"Yu'er, you're finally back."
Zhou Sui was relieved when he saw Ji Bingyu and the others return safely.
After all, it was very chaotic outside, and who knew what could happen.
"Don't worry, husband, we were mostly safe along the way. But, you've actually advanced in your cultivation, reaching the Qi Condensation Third Level?!" Ji Bingyu was overjoyed as she noticed the change in Zhou Sui's aura.
She didn't expect that just after being out for one day, her husband had advanced in his cultivation.
Although the initial Qi Cultivation isn't hard to advance, it was only a month after their marriage and her husband had already gone from the first layer of Qi Cultivation to the third level.
Such cultivation efficiency was truly shocking.
"This!"
Xia Jingyan was somewhat bewildered. Could her previous guess be correct? Did this man actually possess a special Spiritual Body that was just activated, resulting in such rapid progression in cultivation?
Honestly, the matter of a special spiritual body wasn't uncommon in the cultivation world, although it did not happen very often.
"Sure enough, the man chosen by elder sister Bingyu is not ordinary."
Mu Ziyi was also a little surprised.
"Well, it's not that my aptitude is amazing, but there are other reasons. In fact, I got a jug of Spiritual Wine, which helped me to advance to the Qi Condensation Third Level,"
Zhou Sui gave a slight smile.
"Spiritual Wine? Did you go somewhere else to buy Spiritual Wine?"
Ji Bingyu asked curiously.
"Of course not, this Spiritual Wine is brewed by myself,"
Zhou Sui explained.
"You know how to brew Spiritual Wine, husband?"
Ji Bingyu was excited. After all, the brewing method for Spiritual Wine was a top secret. Not even some Foundation Establishment clans could find the method. If they really mastered this, it would be like having a small Spiritual Stone mine.
This was a way to make a continuous profit from Spiritual Stone, a secret technique that could make a Cultivation Clan rise to power.
