Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Chapter 1387: Immortal Sword

The two were evenly matched, and Tan Shaoting thought Qiu Ze Yun was a very good opponent.

Neither of them gave way, both possessing the pride and passion of Sword Cultivators.

An hour later, they still had not determined a winner.

Both had used their ultimate moves. In the end, Tan Shaoting narrowly won.

Qiu Ze Yun laughed heartily, "Mr. Tan, that was really exhilarating. We must compete again if we get the chance; I definitely have to win next time."

Tan Shaoting nodded with a smile, "Sure."

The two finished. Qi Hao and Qi Xuan went to the gambling hall to collect the Spirit Stones again. This time, the odds were five to one, which was quite a lot.

The two youngsters smiled so broadly that only their teeth were visible. Su Yuanyuan found their greedy expressions very amusing.

The whole family returned directly to their residence. Su Yuanyuan suddenly remembered there was a Stone Sword in her space; it must be a treasure; otherwise, Xiao Shui wouldn’t act like that.

The family entered the space. "Xiao Shui, take out that sword."

After Su Yuanyuan finished speaking, there was no movement, but it made her smile with anger.

"Don’t make me say it again."

Xiao Shui reluctantly flew over. "Master, this is Xiao Shui’s."

"It’s all mine."

Now Xiao Shui said nothing.

"Explain."

"Master, this is the Divine Punishment Sword from the Upper Realm."

"Divine Punishment Sword?"

"Yeah, I have to admit, its level is higher than mine."

"How to make it recognize a master?"

"Master, it’s the blood recognition process, but it also depends if it’s willing to recognize a master."

"What about the Sword Spirit of the Divine Punishment Sword? Communicate with it and let it come out."

"Master, you won’t abandon me for something better, right?"

"What are you thinking?"

The father and four sons were listening on the side, realizing the Stone Sword before them was actually an Immortal Artifact.

"Master, you can’t get tired of the old and fancy the new, and abandon me." Xiao Shui continued muttering on the side.

"You better stop, I’m asking my husband to bind it."

"Master, you would give it to someone else."

"What do you want me to do? Should I bind it instead?"

"No, no. Master, I can’t wake it up, only when it’s blood bound will it awaken."

Su Yuanyuan smiled at Tan Shaoting, "Why don’t you give it a try? See if you can be acknowledged. If not, I’ll make sure it never sees daylight."

Tan Shaoting laughed because he saw the sword actually tremble.

The blood recognition went very smoothly, watching as the stone layer outside peeled off.

Tan Shaoting gripped the all-black sword. "Yuanyuan, this is the Divine Punishment Sword."

"That’s great, no longer need to worry about not having a handy weapon. But isn’t this appearance too flashy? It will definitely draw attention. Can anyone here tell it’s an Immortal Sword? Perhaps it should hide itself like Xiao Shui."

Tan Shaoting nodded with a smile, extremely excited now, as he had already understood the Divine Punishment Sword. The Artifact Spirit was still weak, but it was capable to transform into an ordinary sword’s appearance.

Su Yuanyuan found the changed appearance of the Divine Punishment Sword much more pleasing.

Tan Shaoting stored it in his Dantian to keep nurturing it continuously.

Qi Yan congratulated his father with a smile, "An Immortal Sword, seeing both parents already possessing one, it’s time for me to work hard too."

Tan Shaoting shared the abilities of the Divine Punishment Sword with the family.

"So it has sword techniques?"

"Yeah, for now, I can only use one move."

Su Yuanyuan nodded, "One move is fine too. You should go into seclusion; we’ll leave you be."

Tan Shaoting shook his head, "I’ll still go back and then close retreat."

"No need. We can stay here a few more days, and then I’ll head back."

The mother and son exited the space.

"Mom, why don’t you stay here a bit longer?"

Su Yuanyuan shook her head, "No, I need to go back into seclusion; see you at the ranking competition."

"Mom, will Qi Wen compete?"

"Such festivities, she’ll definitely participate, Qi Hong will certainly go too; do you also have a preliminary competition here?"

"Yes, there’s no problem here."

"Great, we’ll return and work hard, Qi Hao and Qi Xuan must cultivate diligently with their master too."

Qi Yan hugged his younger brothers’ shoulders, "Must work hard."

"Don’t worry, big brother, we won’t be left behind."

Su Yuanyuan talked to her three sons about the duel with Wang Yicheng.

"That feeling was very peculiar, just like unraveling the opponent’s moves."

"Mom, let’s try, do you still have that feeling? I’ll use Thunder Spirit Sword Technique this time."

Su Yuanyuan nodded, the mother and son went to the yard.

Su Yuanyuan’s cultivation was higher than her son’s, but she could still have that feeling.

"Mom, this really is your strength; better not let others know."

"Why would I? I also don’t know how I acquired this ability." She thought to find out, wanted all her children to have it too, making them even safer.

"Elder, do you know what’s going on?"

"No, I think it’s akin to beast inheritance. Others can’t learn this."

Only then did Su Yuanyuan resign herself to fate. She let them continue working hard, wanting to give them all good things, paving their future roads; that’s the truest thought of a mother.

The next day, she accompanied her three sons to the arena, mainly because the two younger ones wanted to go there.

She thought to leave the following day; Qi Yan also needed to cultivate, having seen her sons, it felt nice, letting her rest assured.

The two young ones were passionately fired up, Qi Yan laughed and asked his brothers, "You aren’t just watching the fun, right? Have you gained anything?"

"Big brother, can we fight on the stage?"

Qi Yan shook his head, "The lowest cultivators here are at Qi Cultivation Fifth Level. Don’t be impatient, watch carefully, absorb their strengths, and avoid their weaknesses."

The two young ones seriously watched the stage, asking their big brother whenever they didn’t understand something.

Qi Yan patiently explained to them. The female cultivators watched Qi Yan’s expression, filled with admiration. Who knew the usually expressionless handsome face could have such a tender moment.

They left by noon, eating at the Spiritual Food Pavilion.

"Qi Yan, we’re leaving. Don’t work too hard."

"Mom, don’t worry, I know what I’m doing."

"Yeah, don’t worry about us, we’re all good."

Returning to the residence, she asked Tan Shaoting’s thoughts, he also came out of the space.

Qi Yan saw his parents out of the workshop, watching them leave before turning back.

Tan Shaoting controlled the Flying Boat, "Yuanyuan, you go cultivate, I can handle it."

"You should go into seclusion, there’s nothing wrong."

"No need, I can’t be at ease with you guys outside."

Su Yuanyuan said nothing more; the family lived on the Flying Boat.

The two young ones learned plenty from the arena, practicing against each other on the deck.

Watching the two youngsters, they indeed made significant progress.

They now analyzed after practice, discussing issues mutually.
