Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Chapter 745: Message 745

”Seventh Rank, huh? Can it already speak human language?” Qi Wen curiously asked.

”I could speak human language at the Fourth Rank.”

”Yes, yes, I know. You’re really capable, but I’m asking about the White Tiger.”

”Yes, it can. To be honest, it’s quite a formidable old lady.”

”Has it transformed into a human shape?”

”It probably has, although I’ve never seen it. Because it’s already in the later stage of the Seventh Rank, it’s close to reaching the Eighth Rank.”

Tan Shaoting listened from the side, feeling that this time was exceptionally challenging.

”Why does the Demon Realm want to break the barrier and come over to the Cultivation World? And also cause trouble in the Mortal World?”

”How would I be qualified to know that?”

More than a hundred were also controlled by Tan Shaoting with an array. This way, the children would be much safer.

The Vajra Rat was always in Qi Wen’s bag and had witnessed its owner’s bravery in killing demon beasts. It was still relieved, thankful it knew when to act wisely.

This time it still took two days and nights. Since the highest rank was the Fourth Rank, Tan Shaoting didn’t make a move.

After putting away the array plate, ”Dad, I think I can handle a Fourth-rank demon beast on my own.”

Qi Yan added Thunder Spiritual Power during the battle, greatly increasing the speed of slaying demon beasts.

Tan Shaoting nodded, ”That’s possible. But any demon beast with Thunder Spiritual Power cannot be submitted.”

Now the three children understood. They could use the sword without any issues. If they integrated Spiritual Power, they would be noticed.

”In that case, forget it. But I think I can fight a Fourth-rank demon beast without Thunder Spiritual Power.”

”You can try it.”

Qi Hong and Qi Wen felt they couldn’t do it currently, so they didn’t request anything.

They had already harvested nearly four hundred. If they encountered another hundred demon beasts, they could complete the task.

This time they weren’t lucky; it was dark, and none appeared.

Tan Shaoting set up an array, and the four of them went inside to meditate and cultivate.

Because of the Vajra Rat and the environment, Qi Wen forcefully put it into the Spirit Beast Bag, allowing the father and sons to enter the space.

When they emerged, they were full of energy again.

Just after they dismantled the array, they received a Sound Transmission Talisman, summoning them to support fellow disciples.

This was news from the Task Hall; they didn’t delay and headed straight for the indicated location.

The Godspeed Talisman’s speed was very fast, and they didn’t speak or ask questions. After all, it was a battle between demon beasts and humans; they just needed to kill the demon beasts.

This time it wasn’t one-on-one or sibling cooperation, but instead a large group of demon beasts.

Although they attacked from behind, the demon beasts were intelligent. Some immediately turned to confront the four of them.

Fortunately, there were more Third-rank ones, mixed with some Fourth-rank ones.

The four of them didn’t have to move; as soon as a demon beast was killed, another would rush to take its place, making it seem never-ending.

Tan Shaoting was constantly watching the children, and when he saw they couldn’t hold on, Qi Yan unleashed the array plate, and he was satisfied this time; there was no reckless bravado. Knowing the right time was the best.

No need to be distracted, and Tan Shaoting’s sword speed became even faster.

There were already many demon beast corpses underfoot, enough to stand on.

Tan Shaoting usually wore a gray sect robe, which now appeared darker due to bloodstains.

After an hour, Qi Yan and the other two came out again.

When they were tired and exhausted of Spiritual Power, they would enter the array. Tan Shaoting joined them when the children entered for the third time.

Honestly, if the father and sons left, the demon beasts would attack the array. But there was no other choice.

Watching the trembling array, Tan Shaoting gathered the three children, allowing them to safely recover in the space.

In and out repeatedly, after two days and nights, both human cultivators and demon beasts were exhausted.

Even with resting time, the father and sons felt tired.

Suddenly, a sharp cry rang out, causing all the demon beasts to scatter. Unfortunately, some were slain, but most of the demon beasts fled.

The human cultivators didn’t receive orders to pursue, so they quickly regrouped to rest and recover.

The four of them entered the array, replenishing Spiritual Power with Spiritual Spring Water and Spirit Stones, which accelerated the process.

The three kids recovered the fastest, and Qi Yan led his siblings out of the array, taking charge of safety.

When seeing the three kids come out, the leader had three cultivators enter, while they took over the patrolling task.

This was the first time the kids were entrusted with a responsibility, the excitement evident.

But during the patrol, they still collected the father and sons’ spoils.

Over these two days and nights, they had harvested over a thousand, even if Third-rank demon beasts made up half of it, but the quantity was impressive.

Two hours later, Tan Shaoting exited the array, smiling at the children.

Was this the satisfaction of being acknowledged?

It wasn’t bad like this; perhaps he was too cautious.

After Tan Shaoting came out, another fellow disciple stepped down.

It was two more hours before all the human cultivators here had recovered.

Tan Shaoting sought the small team leader and explained the situation.

”Uncle Master, we have to go back and deliver the mission.”

”Thank you, Junior Apprentice Nephew.”

”Uncle Master, we’re also disciples of the Shushan Sect; this is our duty.” Of course, saying nice things wasn’t hard.

After they left, some people started talking about them, since Tan Shaoting wasn’t a nobody in the Shushan Sect.

”Who would have thought even the kids have such combat power.”

Why wouldn’t one envy it? Being able to make a move in life-and-death situations, even fellow disciples should be grateful.

”Tan Shaoting is indeed impressive; I noticed it in the last arena fight.”

”Just too arrogant, not joining a team, taking the kids himself,” someone commented sourly.

”Not forming his own group, which team would want three kids?” sensible people countered.

”But looking at it, the kids did have combat abilities.”

”That’s because you saw them. If they were assigned to our group from the start, you’d be the first to object.” Immediately retorted, as some people just can’t stand others doing well.

This quietened them down. What they said made sense too.

They also started cleaning the battlefield, collecting their spoils. With the dwindling Spiritual Energy, cultivation resources were becoming scarcer, making the blood and flesh of spirit beasts that contained Spiritual Energy, along with bones, fur, and blood that could be exchanged for cultivation resources, valuable future resources.

Tan Shaoting and his sons began heading back directly. Along the way, Xiao Huei wouldn’t stop chattering about Lapis Lazuli.

”Shut up. If you keep nagging, I’ll just make you stay in the Spirit Beast Bag and not let you come out.”
