Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Chapter 1562: Chapter 1562: Before Leaving

The contest of the Four Arts quickly ended, with both wins and losses; honestly, everyone just wants to observe the other’s techniques.

Qi Hong had been paying close attention to the alchemy techniques here. Certainly, there are differences, but overall, they’re largely the same.

It’s mainly about checking the elixir recipes here and comparing the efficacy of the elixirs produced.

The group returned to rest, planning to go shopping tomorrow and leave the day after.

The next day, the Wu Family generously offered each disciple a thousand top-grade spiritual stones.

Feng Yan smiled and made small talk, but ultimately declined; do they look like people who need that thousand spirit stones?

Because the target was too large, they decided to form individual groups to go out.

Everyone has their own opportunities; Qi Hao and Qi Xuan, along with their two brothers, also went out, while the remaining three stayed here.

Su Yuanyuan is studying the array techniques here; truthfully, what’s universal is universal, but the array setup methods here are somewhat simpler, similar to her own techniques, without too much complexity.

The mother and daughter leaned together studying. "Let’s visit the Array Sect when we get back if we have time."

"Mom, the Array Sect would surely welcome you very warmly."

"We’ll go have a look, listen to the professional courses there; they should let us attend."

The mother and daughter tried setting up arrays using the techniques here, finding it acceptable; although the methods are simple, there are some less refined aspects, feeling a bit rough.

"Our own methods are still better."

It’s not that they’re conceited; perhaps they’ve drawn on the strengths of both sides.

"Mom, someone is researching our Array Plate outside our array."

Su Yuanyuan had noticed long ago, but it’s nothing significant. If they can figure it out, it’s their skill.

In fact, she felt some technical exchange should be arranged; it could help complement each other’s strengths and weaknesses. Still, they seem unwilling to do so. It’s fine this way, even if they want to guard their secrets jealously.

"Mom, look at their compasses; I’ll get one from the Array Sect when I go back, feels different holding it in hand."

"Are you thinking of those old Taoists in TV movies?"

"Yes, the first image that came to mind was that old Taoist in the zombie movie."

"You’ve really watched quite a lot of those movies."

"Yes, I found them quite interesting at the time."

The mother and daughter whispered and laughed together, while Tan Shaoting cooked for his wife.

The Wu Family Master and Young Master were discussing in a secret room.

"Dad, it’s impossible to get close."

The Wu Family Master nodded, "Forget it, whoever wants to try can go; you stay out of it."

"I understand, with that person’s status and temper, I don’t want to."

The Wu Family Master nodded; the old ancestor had instructed to try to gain Tan Qiweng’s favor, which is indeed a challenging task.

That person’s aura is very aloof; actually, his son is right, looking for someone like that is too stifling.

"My fifth uncle’s three cousins went out together."

The Wu Family Master nodded, "Got it. You go back and cultivate."

"Dad, can I go along with them to see Xuantian Sect?"

"Do you want to go?"

"Yes, I’m not a fool; I can see they weren’t even seriously competing. I want to experience it, see how things are over there, can’t always stay cooped up at home."

"Alright, I’ll try speaking about it, but it’s likely they won’t agree."

The Wu Family Master thought it over and decided to talk to Tian Yan.

He explained the situation, "Senior, we also wish to witness the expansive land and numerous sects over there, where many Great Powers reside. We just want the child to broaden his horizons."

Tian Yan didn’t refuse, nodding. "Alright. But we’re leaving tomorrow. You can also wait for a year and meet us by the seaside then."

"Senior, please let my son lead the way; he knows quite a few places, practically every nook and cranny."

Tian Yan nodded, indifferent.

He had already considered the matter; though bringing someone along like this is indeed inconvenient, nevertheless, it’s hard to refuse such requests. The flying boat can hold a thousand people, carrying a few more poses no issue.

The Wu Family Master didn’t expect it to be so smooth. He was overjoyed.

Immediately went to make arrangements; though his son is at the Golden Core Stage, he is still worried about letting him go out, so he directly approached his third brother, thinking having a Nascent Soul Cultivator accompany him would be much safer.

After all arrangements were in place, five Golden Cores and one Nascent Soul. This way it won’t be too conspicuous, yet much safer.

Only after everything was arranged, did he inform the old ancestor.

"Foolish, it’s dangerous out there."

"Ancestor, it won’t be; Yanhui isn’t a fool, plus going there to broaden his horizons would benefit him."

"What’s good about that side?"

"Cultivators should venture out for experience; this could enhance both their mindset and cultivation."

"It’s your decision; after all, he’s your son."

The Wu Family Master bowed and left, already filled with annoyance towards the old ancestor; truly, there’s nothing to be done, always meddling from behind.

Wu Yanhui was extremely delighted; there was nothing to pack, as all the cultivator’s belongings were in the Storage Ring. Thinking about going to Xuantian Sect, his face was all smiles.

Qi Yan and his brothers went to the Duobao Pavilion. Qi Hao had already stated the Duobao Pavilion did not entertain parents and sister; they were unwilling to give up, so they went anyway.

But it ended the same, no reception from them; seems their family had already become blacklisted by Duobao Pavilion.

Shortly after stepping out, they ran into Feng Yan, just by himself.

"Master Ancestor, where are you coming from?"

"Just went to the Duobao Pavilion; yesterday they didn’t entertain my parents, today we went back, same result, our family must have offended Duobao Pavilion too deeply."

"Master Ancestor, I’ll try to see if the cultivators from Xuantian Sect might receive us?"

They split up; the four brothers went to the Wu Family’s shop, which has quite a comprehensive range of goods.

Qi Hong selected the Spirit Plant Encyclopedia and the Alchemy Technique. After taking a serious look, he bought them all; the elixir recipes here are genuinely expensive. Qi Hong truly isn’t someone lacking spirit stones, purchasing all the elixir recipes here, waiting to find some peace to try opening his furnace.

Qi Yan examined the swordsmanship here; while not exactly anything advanced, it can still be used as a reference.

Qi Hao chose formations, while Qi Xuan opted for talismans.

The Talisman Collection here is the best; even for known talismans, the designs are different.

The four brothers quietly focused on their needs, when three female cultivators came in.

Seeing the Tan brothers relieved them, they huddled closer to them like guardians.

Qi Yan and his brothers didn’t lift their heads, continuing to look at the books in their hands.

Collected their needs and placed them aside, waiting to check out later.

Qi Xuan wanted all talismans to look closely at the patterns for any differences. Since their mother didn’t come yesterday, they’re bringing them back today; they have to test what varies in potency.
