Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Chapter 681: 681 on the road

The three children sorted out all the Spirit Stones and put them into a Storage Bag.

There were also many talismans, which they divided among themselves because they would need them on their journey. After all, they didn’t want to become burdens to their father.

The rest, which could be sold again, were also put into a Storage Bag. As for their Magic Artifacts, they were just packed into a Storage Bag to be discarded directly.

The three children could now organize and collect the Storage Bags they obtained.

Tan Shaoting watched with a smile on the side. The children had really grown up, and there was nothing to worry about anymore.

He felt very proud in his heart. These were his excellent children.

”Dad, we’ve given you all the Spirit Stones. We still have a lot in our hands.”

Tan Shaoting nodded with a smile. ”Alright, I’ll buy whatever you need at the auction.”

”Dad, can you buy a Thunder Spirit Pearl?” Qi Wen asked.

”Yeah, both my sister and I have Spiritual Pearls, but our brother doesn’t have one yet.”

”I’m not sure. Usually, after the auction, there will be one or two trade sessions.

This auction didn’t feature a Thunder Spirit Pearl. Let’s try our luck at the trade session.”

After breakfast, the four of them tidied up a bit and prepared to leave.

Tan Shaoting didn’t realize that their delay had perfectly caused them to miss two Foundation Establishment cultivators chasing them.

Two more days passed uneventfully, and then suddenly, the Flying Boat they were on shook violently, having been attacked.

Tan Shaoting controlled the Flying Boat and carefully brought it down.

The father and the three children were very cautious, putting away the Flying Boat but deploying an Array.

This time, there were five Qi Cultivation Great Perfection cultivators, but they didn’t seem to be from the same group as the previous ones.

”Dad, if we can still lure them into the Array, let us try.”

The opponents were at Qi Cultivation Great Perfection, while the two boys were at Qi Cultivation Fifth Level, and Qi Wen was at Sixth Level.

Although their cultivation was there, they had very little real combat experience and wanted to temper themselves.

Tan Shaoting nodded, ”Alright, I’ll go out and try to lure them into the Array.”

He watched from the side, and it was good that the three kids were teaming up against one person. It was a suitable arrangement.

Being siblings, they were very attuned to each other, making it feasible to let them try.

Five Qi Cultivation Great Perfection cultivators surrounded them. They saw where they had cast the Array earlier, and although it was hidden now, they still knew where they were.

”Dad, could you throw out another Array? We could deal with them from inside?” Qi Hong asked.

It seemed possible. One Array within another would work better since outsiders wouldn’t see the children attacking.

”I’ll try.”

Tan Shaoting seized an opportunity and threw out another Array Plate, enveloping the five attackers directly.

This Array Plate also had hallucinatory functions, making it possible to defeat them one by one.

The three children drew their swords, and after coming out of the Array, they attacked directly.

Even though they had been apart for more than six months, their cooperation remained seamless.

However, the gap was large. Despite their surprise attack and cooperation, their Spiritual Power reserves were insufficient.

Seeing this, Tan Shaoting watched as they returned to the Array when their Spiritual Power was nearly depleted.

This was good, very good. They were being rational and not being reckless.

Tan Shaoting ended one of the attackers with a single sword strike from the shadows.

The three returned to the Array, each drinking a cup of Spiritual Spring Water, then sat down to meditate. After about an hour, they came out again.

Repeating the same operation, their progress was truly rapid, and this time they even injured a Qi Cultivation Great Perfection cultivator.

They retreated again, and of course, Tan Shaoting finished off the cultivator.

All five were handled in this manner, taking six hours in total.

Tan Shaoting was fine with accompanying the kids in their training. Seeing their step-by-step progress and how their cooperation was nearly flawless meant they now had the strength to contend with someone at Qi Cultivation Great Perfection.

Tan Shaoting put away the Storage Bags, cleaned up the battlefield, and then cultivated together with the children.

Two hours later, they had all reached their peak state.

”Let’s go. We need to move on and find a resting place.” It was almost dark, and they had to hurry.

All four sat in the Flying Boat again. This Flying Artifact was quite sturdy, although their cultivation was low, but even so, it caused the Flying Boat to shake.

Late at night, the father and the three children finally found a mountain cave.

The three children woke up from meditation once again.

”Dad, are we awesome or what?”

”Absolutely awesome, you should be this way. I’m really proud.”

Qi Wen smiled with pursed lips, very pleased with their father’s praise.

The four of them followed the same routine as yesterday: eating and sleeping. Despite cultivating, for rest, they needed actual sleep.

In the morning, they organized the Storage Bags again.

Tan Shaoting watched from the side, feeling genuinely reassured by how the children had matured. Once they returned, their tasks would be complete, and they could accept outside missions to hunt demon beasts.

They still threw the five Storage Bags to sort through again.

”Dad, their Spirit Stones are much more than yesterday’s.”

”That’s for our auction.”

”Dad, they are from the Xuantian Sect.”

”Dad, isn’t the Xuantian Sect a Major Sect? Why would they do such dishonorable things too?”

”It’s very normal. They might suspect I’ve been to the tenth floor, looking to gain powerful cultivation techniques or Cultivation Resources from me.”

”Pack their Identity Jade Tokens and Magic Artifacts together. We can discard them later.”

Now, the three children all had genuine smiles on their faces.

As before, all talismans were divided among the three kids.

If they couldn’t use an Array next time, they’d throw talismans, which would be pretty fun too.

”Dad, will there be more people attacking us?”

”There will be.”

”Dad, it’s because of us that you’re in trouble,” Qi Yan said a bit regretfully.

”I am your father; whatever happens, I will support you.”

The three children nodded with a smile.

They set off again, enjoying five days of peace without anyone attacking them.

”We’ll reach Four-direction City in another five days.”

”Dad, won’t it be more dangerous in the coming days?” Qi Hong asked.

”It probably will be. The ones tracking us aren’t just those two groups. We just need to be careful.”
