Chapter 1737: Growth

Su Yuanyuan patted the young woman’s shoulder, "A wise person knows when to adapt. No rush."

Xiao Ya nodded. She benefited from the Lower Realm, yet she was forced into it initially, naturally feeling unwilling.

"Don’t worry, we will grow slowly, we have a long time ahead, and we will be with you then.

I won’t talk about the past, but in the future, you have us, remember that?"

"Mmm, Mom, I remember."

"Even if you turn into a demon, we will still support you."

Xiao Ya laughed, this is a mother, a real mother.

Qi Hong’s alchemy was exceptionally smooth, without any transition from Spirit Pill to Immortal Pill, it seemed the way it should be.

In the days that followed, apart from discovering Golden Crystal Rabbits, they also found demon beasts one rank higher. This was just right for them.

"Misjudged, there’s no Demon Beast Record."

"No rush, we’ll replenish everything once we return, and we’ll come back here."

Without any foundation, this place is currently the safest.

A month later, their tasks were long completed, and they were somewhat reluctant to go back.

But as they went deeper in, it should be getting more dangerous, still needing to return to gather some things.

Individual needs vary. Tan Shaoting now wants a talisman pen and talisman paper while Su Yuanyuan needs tools for arrays.

After returning and handing in the tasks, they took on new ones, including collecting Immortal Plants, which would come in handy.

They arrived at Treasure Pavilion, tools for the Four Arts weren’t expensive, they surely bought what they wanted, didn’t purchase anything else, and only bought one Demon Beast Record.

On their next departure towards Xingyun Mountain, they split up. Xiao Ya, Xiao Rue, and Tan Shaoting were responsible for protecting everyone.

Su Yuanyuan’s heart was all about arrays now, she entered Tan Shaoting’s space. This way, the family wasn’t easily separated; they dared not part now. Here, they were akin to newly entering cultivators.

The group had no other thoughts at this point, becoming strong was the priority.

Gu Ersheng, anxious as he was, knew to give them time to grow.

After all, he was in the Eastern Heavenly Emperor’s domain, which was far away. No one knew how many dangers lay ahead.

They didn’t need to worry, as they were all younger generation; and after returning, they might establish the Xuantian Sect.

After a battle, Qi Wen entered meditation during the evening rest.

She did not advance, while Zhu Huai’en and Mu Tian had both upgraded to Profound Immortal.

The two felt pressured. Their disciple’s cultivation exceeded their master’s; can’t adjust, isn’t it bad?

After they advanced, Qi Wen also did.

Qi Hao and Qi Xuan, the two anxious ones. Second Brother’s situation isn’t a problem, only they were left.

Chen Xue Man was also anxious; the more anxious, the less the feeling came.

The main force was now them. A few days had passed and adapting was better.

Xiao Ya sighed internally, the Heavenly Dao was looking after them, giving them a quiet chance to grow amidst the chaos in the Immortal World.

Qi Hong practiced alchemy every morning and night, everyone held many healing medicines, moving next to elixirs for rapid Immortal power recovery during battles.

"Second Brother, I feel this is your Medicine Garden."

"Cherish this opportunity. The Immortal World isn’t as peaceful as you might think or see," Xiao Ya emotionally told Third Brother.

Everyone understood Xiao Ya’s implication, thus working even harder.

A month later, Qi Hao and Qi Xuan became Profound Immortals too.

But advancing further beyond Profound Immortal would be difficult.

However, everyone’s swordsmanship progressed remarkably.

After emerging from the space, Su Yuanyuan successfully recorded a Defensive Array.

Although it’s a low-level array, guarding against gentlemen, not against scoundrels.

This time, Tan Shaoting entered Su Yuanyuan’s space, intending to study talismans.

Su Yuanyuan was delighted with the children’s progress.

At night, she comforted Chen Xue Man. "Don’t be too anxious. Haven’t you understood the importance of mindset?"

"I know, but I’m the last, feeling frustrated."

"What’s there to be frustrated about? Relax."

A month later, they decided to rest and settle in place. One shouldn’t rush recklessly.

With the array, they felt much more at ease. Although a high-level cultivator might destroy it instantly, it would at least require some preparation time.

Tan Shaoting left the space, feeling disheartened. "Yuanyuan, I really can’t do it."

"It’s alright. Creating Immortal Talismans is inherently challenging."

Qi Wen took over her father’s tools, "Let me try."

Qi Wen could manage talisman painting and array, she simply wasn’t inclined.

With Second Brother mastering alchemy, Mother adept in arrays, and Father’s talisman not working, she decided to try herself. Her eldest brother held no interest in these matters.

The two younger brothers were even less reliable. Pondering this, it felt necessary to do it herself.

Mu Tian chuckled, knowing his disciple lacked perseverance.

A month later, Chen Xue Man finally advanced to Profound Immortal.

Now all twelve were Profound Immortals.

Gu Ersheng floated out, "Let’s set off."

No one disagreed.

Gu Ersheng was indeed eager, seeking a body to accompany his young woman.

After spending another two months at Xingyun Mountain, they descended. Upon submitting their task, they inquired with the steward about how to reach the Eastern Realm.

"You wish to go to the Eastern Realm?"

Gu Ersheng cupped his hands, "Our elder once sent word saying he’s in the East. Since we’re here, we must visit."

"Currently, there’s no connection between the North and the East."

Tan Shaoting frowned, "Senior, how can we get there then?"

"If you insist on going, head to the Southern Realm, from there you can reach it."

They had to move forward regardless, hoping not to see Gu Ersheng separated between body and soul.

From here, they pooled half their rewards to buy an authoritative map.

Moreover, flying spaceships to the South were available, each requiring three thousand Immortal Crystals.

Everyone had enough but couldn’t simply spend it here, needing to head to Xingyun Mountain again.

The workshop’s steward had been monitoring them.

They hadn’t been there a year, already advanced to Profound Immortal.

The transition from Earth Immortal to Heavenly Immortal, to Profound Immortal, was easiest; their pace was truly astounding.

Aware they were ascending cultivators from the Lower Realm, inherently talented, yet remarkably so.

They primarily sought Immortal Crystals this time, everyone striving hard; those exchanged directly at the service office turned into Immortal Crystals.

After six months, everyone improved significantly. The collected demon beasts and Immortal Plants should suffice for their tickets, then returning to the service office.

After exchanging for tickets, something remained, swapped for Blank Array Plates. Essentially leaving empty-handed, only holding tickets, departing a month later.
