Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Chapter 1767: Companion

No matter what, we still have to wait for things to be resolved one by one. Being anxious won’t help.

They almost guessed right; now it’s true that Tian Yan is undergoing the baptism of the ascension thunder tribulation at the Xuantian Sect.

Pishi gave him some array plates, and they really worked. Tian Yan thought to himself how embarrassing it was that he, a magic cultivator, knew nothing about the Four Arts.

Looking at the thunder tribulation in the sky, Tian Yan’s eyes were filled with excitement. He was about to ascend.

Now, he had no time for random thoughts; the thunder tribulation was quite formidable.

Yu Huping was watching from the side. He still had some time before his ascension and was content to let the Xuantian Sect have more space for development.

As long as their group of Mahayana cultivators remained in the Xuantian Sect, they would continue to stand as the number one in the Starry Realm.

Now, the sect already had more than ten Divinity Transformation cultivators, which was an immense asset. To be honest, even upon his own ascension, there would definitely be more Mahayana cultivators. This would ensure the enduring strength of the Xuantian Sect.

The Nine-Nine Thunder Tribulation really gave Tian Yan a hard time. This time, the Heart Demon Tribulation was quite simple and didn’t take long at all.

When the phenomenon appeared, all the cultivators of the Xuantian Sect cheered. The sect had gained another Immortal.

Tian Yan’s injuries recovered rapidly. He appeared before everyone, accepting the congratulations of all the disciples.

Pishi was absent; it was a critical moment for him. The two not ascending together was quite disappointing.

He had many concerns about the higher realm. After more than ten years, finding Su Yuanyuan would not be easy. Having a companion would be more reassuring.

Seeing the situation, he decided to take the first step himself.

He talked a lot with Yu Huping and Liu Xiaozhu. Indeed, every person’s insights into ascension were different.

Three months later, Tian Yan ascended; the beautiful fantasies disappeared. It was truly excruciating, with many bumps and shocks. He couldn’t move and felt so constrained.

He wondered if Su Yuanyuan and her companions had experienced the same. It was truly frustrating.

When he regained consciousness, he found himself already on the ground, which was really quite disheartening, wasn’t it?

”Who goes there?”

”Tian Yan of the Xuantian Sect from the Starry Realm.”

It was those four Heavenly Immortals. ”Another one from the Starry Realm? There hadn’t been any ascensions for thousands of years, and now they’re coming one after another.”

Tian Yan heard this as well, ”Respected seniors, do you know the whereabouts of my fellow sect members?”

”Them? They’ve left long ago, headed to the Mortal Transformation Pool.”

In such an unfamiliar place, Tian Yan didn’t have much to ask. However, he knew he needed to cultivate at the Mortal Transformation Pool for a while.

He absolutely believed the Tan Family’s words. So he followed them into the Mortal Transformation Pool.

Thinking that if the Tan Family was so conspicuous, he would definitely be able to find them.

Tian Yan persevered in the Mortal Transformation Pool for a year. In the end, he gained nothing and decided to leave.

The Tan Family left behind a mental method, available for all ascension cultivators. It turned out to be an Immortal Law.

The four Heavenly Immortals in charge there were very envious upon seeing Tian Yan ascend. Not many cultivators could persist in the Mortal Transformation Pool for a year.

Moreover, he directly reached the late-stage Earth Immortal. Could it be that the Starry Realm was truly a place of outstanding talents and rich resources?

They continued to coax Tian Yan. Knowing that the Tan Family had gone mining, he didn’t hesitate and agreed directly.

He wasn’t foolish; he understood that he had no chance of keeping anything for himself here, so he didn’t care at all. After collecting a thousand Immortal Crystals, he treated the remaining ones like Spirit Stones for cultivation, reaching the Heavenly Immortal stage two months shy of two years.

In excitement, Tian Yan hastily collected Immortal Crystals, calculating the whole time. Should he just dig for another two years here before advancing and then leaving?

He then chuckled bitterly. He still didn’t have an Immortal Law suited for himself. How could he cultivate at all? Besides, it was inappropriate for a cultivator to have such thoughts. He gained an additional hundred Immortal Crystals. Once outside, he wouldn’t worry about embarrassment. ”Seniors, didn’t you spare some Immortal Crystals for me? I have to survive after going out, right?”

There was actually a rule here. After completing the task in two years, they received a reward of twenty Immortal Crystals.

If someone asked, they would give them; if not, they kept them.

Reluctantly, they gave Tian Yan twenty Immortal Crystals, cursing inwardly about his beggarly attitude.

With twenty Immortal Crystals in hand, Tian Yan felt more confident.

Following the same procedure, after gaining the Immortal Record and retrieving his Storage Ring, he left quickly, knowing he couldn’t ask much anyway. He went to the workshop obediently to gather information.

”Fellow cultivator ahead, please wait.”

Tian Yan knew it must be him they’re calling, so he stopped to wait.

It was a female immortal who had just been behind him completing a task.

”Fellow cultivator, could we travel together? I truly feel a bit scared on my own.”

Tian Yan nodded, thinking to himself that this was the demeanor a female immortal should have, unlike Su Yuanyuan and her companions.

Neither had a flying device, so they had to travel using their movement techniques. Tian Yan chuckled inwardly, recalling his state back in the Cultivation World before even reaching the third level of Qi Cultivation.

Their movements were swift, speaking in hushed tones. They had already inquired about the nearest workshop, and having a companion on the road was quite nice.

”Why is the Immortal World so vast? And it looks desolate. By the way, I haven’t introduced myself; I ascended from the Guangkuan Realm, my name is Liu Su. And you, fellow cultivator?”

”I am Tian Yan from the Starry Realm.”

”Starry Realm? I’ve never heard of it.”

”We did tasks together, why didn’t I meet you at the Mortal Transformation Pool?”

”I’ll tell you in secret; I had some Immortal Crystals on hand, so I left in less than two years. I really couldn’t stand mining.” Liu Su wanted to partner with Tian Yan mainly because he was an ascension cultivator. Moreover, he was now a Heavenly Immortal, much better than her as an Earth Immortal, making it safer together.

Tian Yan thought to himself what a spendthrift. ”You didn’t ask for Immortal Crystals?”

”You can actually ask for Immortal Crystals?”

”Of course. When I came up, I was penniless. I asked around and got twenty pieces of Immortal Crystal.”

Liu Su showed regret all over her face, ”I didn’t get any. If I go back and ask now, would they give me any?”

”What do you think?” This was indeed a somewhat clueless female immortal.

”Sigh, really suffered a loss. By the way, fellow cultivator, why are you going to the workshop?”

”To find someone.”

”You know someone in the Immortal World?”

”Several decades ago, fellow sect members ascended.”

”Really? Are they waiting for you at the workshop?”

Tian Yan shook his head, ”I don’t know, they probably aren’t.” They had too many things to deal with, at least to let the ancestor merge, and they should also look for Senior Chen Rushi.

”Hmm. So how will you find them?”

”I’ll inquire first. Primarily, I need to find a cultivation technique that suits me.”

”Twenty Immortal Crystals to buy a cultivation technique?”

”Are you still asleep? How is that possible? I’ll go to the workshop to see if there’s a way to earn Immortal Crystals.”

”Fellow cultivator Tian Yan, may I accompany you? I’m truly uneasy being new here, not to mention my cultivation level is too low.”
