Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Chapter 1805: Chapter 1805: Encountering the Ancestor

With that, the two of them felt at ease. They’d already been together for a hundred-odd years, you could say they were at least somewhat familiar with each other.

They both had a good impression of the other, so ending up together was just a natural progression.

The two returned to the small courtyard; inside were only Pishi and Dan Yang, the others were all out.

Tian Yan was anxious. He tried sending a voice transmission to Tan Shaoting and actually got a reply—turns out He wasn’t far from here.

The couple came back and saw Tian Yan in the courtyard.

”What’s wrong?”

”Su Yuanyuan, this is my dao partner Liu Su. The two of us have decided to be together too.”

Su Yuanyuan smiled. ”That’s great. You two have been together for quite a while already.”

”Su Yuanyuan, I want the soul contract that Qi Yan and Chen Xue Man used.”

”No problem, just wait a bit. They’ll be back soon anyway.”

Liu Su was really embarrassed. She tried sending a voice transmission to Senior Sister and quickly got a reply.

Meteor was the fastest to return. Liu Su pulled her straight into the array.

”Senior Sister, Tian Yan and I are going to become dao partners.”

Meteor laughed. ”When did you decide that?”

Liu Su recounted what had just happened. ”I don’t even know why I said something like that at the time.”

”You said it, so you said it. It doesn’t matter who speaks first. From the start you were inclined toward Tian Yan—being together is good.”

”Senior Sister, you don’t know how embarrassed I was back then? Tian Yan even told me He hadn’t heard anything, and later explained that it was so I wouldn’t feel awkward.”

”What’s the point in obsessing over that? You two just live well.”

”He said to use the soul contract Qi Yan and Chen Xue Man used last time. He said it made hearts resonate, and that from now on the first person He’ll protect is me.

I don’t need protection, I can handle myself. I’ll definitely work hard on cultivation in the future.”

Meteor was actually a bit envious of her junior sister. They were already over a thousand years old; being able to meet people walking the same path here was luck.

”Tian Yan says we should go out.”

The two sisters saw that everyone had gathered; even Pishi and Dan Yang came out.

Chen Rushi cheerfully handed Qi Yan a Jade Scroll. ”You two get familiar with this—this is that soul contract. It’s from ancient times, and works quite well.”

Tian Yan memorized it and then passed it to Liu Su beside Him.

Under everyone’s witness, the two formed a soul contract. If either side betrayed it in future, they’d be in serious trouble.

Everyone gave gifts. Tan Shaoting’s was a Dual Cultivation Method; they just didn’t know if it would suit them. Gu Ersheng and Chen Rushi both gave generous gifts—after all, He was still a junior from the sect. Tian Yan really made quite a haul this time.

Dan Yang’s gift was Elixirs, all sorts of different kinds.

They watched the newlywed couple enter their room, while everyone else stayed outside.

”I have so many Great Elixirs on hand; I want to sell them.” Dan Yang said with a broad grin.

”Master, I’ll go with you.”

Master and disciple left together. Everyone knew their Elixirs were sure to be in short supply; selling them would be no problem at all.

Qi Yan and Chen Xue Man hadn’t gotten much of anything, and went back to cultivate.

Qi Wen didn’t want to leave, and sat outside chatting with her mother.

”Mom, I received some good stuff,” Qi Wen presented her treasures to her mother.

”I got Immortal Rice too. I’ve already had the long-armed ape plant it.”

Su Yuanyuan had also collected quite a few Immortal Fruit Trees. They would definitely be useful in the future.

Qi Hong and Dan Yang, master and disciple, headed out.

”Let’s just go to the Treasure Pavilion; selling on our own is too much hassle.”

”Master, if you sell on your own you can trade for what you need.”

”There aren’t any Immortal Plants I particularly need right now; what I lack is Immortal Crystals.”

Since that was the case, going to the Treasure Pavilion was the most suitable.

The place was extremely lively; it took quite a while before someone came to receive them.

”May I ask what you need, Seniors?”

”We’d like to sell Elixirs.”

The attendant froze for a moment. ”Please come with me.”

Once they entered a private room, all the noise outside vanished.

The attendant respectfully invited the two to sit, then sent a voice transmission.

After a short while, a refined-looking cultivator walked in. Dan Yang immediately stood up.

”Ancestor Lun Yao?”

The cultivator who came in paused. ”I’m Lun Yao. And you are?”

Dan Yang and Qi Yan hurriedly saluted. ”Ancestor, I’m Dan Yang, the ninety-ninth generation disciple of the Medicine Sect of the Starry Realm.”

Qi Hong also cupped his hands. ”Ancestor, I’m Tan Qihong, the hundredth generation disciple of the Medicine Sect of the Starry Realm.”

”Ah, I never expected to still run into juniors from the sect in the next life.” Even as he said that, he still handed each of them a Storage Bag.

One doesn’t dare refuse gifts from a senior; the two accepted them respectfully.

”Sit down, tell me how the Starry Realm is doing.

I’ve always been puzzled—why haven’t I heard of any cultivators ascending from the Starry Realm? Dan Yang, how many disciples of the Medicine Sect have ascended?”

”Ancestor, the Ascension Channel was destroyed. The Starry Realm hasn’t had an ascending cultivator for a million years.”

”Is that so? So the fact that you were able to come up means the Ascension Channel has already been restored?”

”Yes. I ascended more or less together with cultivators from Xuantian Sect and Sword Sect.”

”Then that’s good. As long as ascension is possible, it’s fine.”

Qi Hong stood off to the side without saying a word, honestly a bit speechless about this Ancestor. Gu Ersheng had been thinking of ways to restore the Ascension Channel and even took their whole family there, Chen Rushi too; they hadn’t even met the other seniors yet, so he didn’t know what was going on.

This Medicine Sect Ancestor was the first he’d met, and seeing how he treated the destruction of the Ascension Channel as nothing much was...

”Right, you two wanted to sell Elixirs?”

Dan Yang brought out all the Jade Bottles. ”Ancestor, these are all ones I refined myself. There are too many; I originally thought about setting up a street stall, but later I found that too troublesome, so I came here instead.”

Lun Yao picked them up one by one to inspect, quoting prices as he went.

Dan Yang listened from the side. Whatever price the Ancestor gave was fine.

Lun Yao announced the total. ”Your Alchemy level is really quite good. Why don’t you stay at the Treasure Pavilion? It’s stronger than any family.”

Dan Yang shook his head. ”Ancestor, I’m going to the Western Immortal Emperor Realm with the cultivators who came up from the Starry Realm.”

”Things are far too chaotic over there right now.”

”There are some matters that need to be settled.”

”You’re a Dan Cultivator, best not get involved.”

Dan Yang smiled. ”Ancestor, are we still going to establish a Medicine Sect in the Immortal World?”

”Establish a sect? That’s not very feasible. It requires too much manpower and resources, and you need high-level cultivators—the bare minimum would be Immortal Monarch Level.”

Dan Yang smiled. ”Ancestor, then I’ll just follow a cultivator from Xuantian Sect. If the Medicine Sect has disciples ascend in the future, they’ll also join Xuantian Sect.”

”Those are all external matters. Do you want to join the Treasure Pavilion?”

Dan Yang firmly shook his head. ”I don’t like being bound. Things are fine as they are now.”

From ascension up to now, you could say he’d been through a great many things. Having finally ended up together with people he was familiar with, he wasn’t about to form any attachment to this Ancestor he’d only met once.

”All right then. Think it over yourself—you can join the Treasure Pavilion anytime you like.

For these Elixirs, I’ll give you thirty thousand Immortal Crystals. In future, you can hand over any Elixirs you have to any branch of the Treasure Pavilion.”
