Faced with Li Ye's astonishment, the shell only opened slightly, emitting several rays of warm light from a smooth golden pill within.

It was clearly intelligent.

Li Ye just felt that its intelligence was intoxicated and somewhat foolish, exposing its inner core so recklessly.

Like a drunkard unbuttoning his clothes to reveal his round belly.

Uncertain if it was the intoxicating scent of the wine, Li Ye seemed to momentarily see a rather corpulent man exposing his chest and belly...

"..."

He quickly shook his head to dispel the strange image, attempting to communicate with the drunken spirit clam.

Although this guy was a gold core-level spirit beast, it bore no arrogance, answering nearly every question Li Ye posed.

Thanks to its cooperation, Li Ye learned this creature's background.

It turned out that in the depths of the cloud sea in the ninth celestial palace, untouched by most cultivators, was a celestial wine pool from which it had emerged.

In there, beautiful wine was brewed from heavenly cloud essence, and any drunken spirit clam within was gold core-level.

They possessed a special divine technique to transform their favored materials into wine, attracted by the River Jade mushrooms, it specifically awoke.

"So these River Jade mushrooms were formed by the vitality yang qi coerced by River Vine and Mud Water Worm?"

Li Ye looked at those small, smooth, light-blue beads floating in mid-air. With his current divine sense and perception ability, he was actually unable to perceive the yang qi transformation.

Judging by appearance alone or their method of birth, it should be nurtured by water spiritual power or yin qi.

The spirit clam's shell opened and closed, seemingly nodding.

Then suddenly emitted a powerful suction, sweeping almost all the light-blue beads into its shell.

The status bar instantly showed the states of [Drunken] and [Nurturing Wine Beads].

"Burp~"

A very loud burp echoed out.

Before the shell closed, it expelled several deeper blue beads, transmitting an intent.

It then fell into a deep slumber once more.

"Absorbed all the yang qi..."

"Are these my gifts?"

Mumbling, Li Ye put it back in the bag.

Reaching out to grab those few blue beads, holding them alone revealed a unique wine aroma, as if a refreshing river water vapor lingered in the nose.

According to it, these were the "wine beads" it nurtured, considered a special type of wine ferment, able to brew fine wine.

Wine-making certainly counted as a lucrative business, Li Ye had long considered venturing into it, yet each wine had its secret recipe. Even with some decent spiritual materials, crafting wine without the method was challenging.

"The wine ferment requires special microbes to ferment, so the River Jade mushrooms can actually turn into beneficial microbes for winemaking?"

Although never having studied this field seriously, Li Ye had watched some introductory videos, roughly grasping some knowledge.

So the cultivation realm also had the concept of microbial fermentation, perhaps referred differently?

"To brew wine, one needs grains. It's fortunate I have Wheat Spirit here; perhaps I should consider cultivating more wheat."

His first fortune stemmed from Spring Wheat's profits, already planned to resume planting wheat next spring.

Experimenting with wheat and rice across the seasons, hoping for improvements, even slight ones in primary crops, would be an achievement.

"Wait a moment."

Mentioning accomplishments, Li Ye suddenly blessed with a good heart glimpsed the Jianmu within his dantian.

Discovering that what was once a mere seedling of Jianmu had grown another section, its overflowing vitality like a rain of light showering within his dantian.

[+20000.]

First came the increase in vital essence.

Followed by cultivation, directly reaching the Foundation Establishment seventh layer.

Li Ye couldn't help but marvel at how quickly his cultivation improved, nearing the gold core?

"The small world within Jianmu... spans about ten acres now."

"Wait, what is this divine technique..."

He opened his palm, where a tender new sprout slowly grew, the surface bearing some mysterious talisman seals.

At first glance, resembling a Flint Fire Crystal Insect curling up its body.

"Oh?"

"Manifesting the divine techniques from spirit plant and spirit beast gifts into talisman seals?"

This really is an intriguing divine technique, now Li Ye has received numerous gifts of spiritual qi from plants and beasts, converting these spiritual essence gifts into modifications of certain divine techniques.

The current divine technique manifests those remodeled divine techniques into talisman seals, imprinting them onto talismans or scrolls to possess such powers.

An amusing kind of strength.

Besides vital essence, the land within Jianmu, cultivation, manifesting powers as talisman seals, Jianmu also imparted a very special divine technique.

Li Ye looked far beyond, channeling mana throughout his body.

"Swish——"

In an instant, his figure transformed into a streak of light, spanning five hundred acres immediately, reaching the cave mansion's end.

But the cost was blood marks appearing on his skin, originally overflowing mana now like a large hole drained significantly, consuming much divine sense.

"Such terrifying escape technique and divine ability." Li Ye gazed at the path he traversed, such speed crossing five hundred miles in less than a single breath.
