No Need to Panic During Famine, I Have an Immortal Mountain Secret Realm

Alchemy genius Sang Jin was forced to her death by various sects after her master ascended. She was reborn on another unfamiliar continent.

During a year of disaster and famine, she became th...

Chapter 17: One World

"Elder Xu, you are joking. I just want to buy one to take back for research. I suggest that you all give this pill to me. I will refine more foundation-building pills next time." Elder Tong smiled kindly.

Only in a small town like Yansha, a third-grade foundation-building pill could be considered a treasure. The president of the Alchemist Association was an eighth-level alchemist. He was his master's master. If he hadn't been injured and his progress hadn't been halted, how could he have ended up here?

Even Mr. Tong has come out to bid, who else dares to challenge him openly?

"One million and one hundred and ten thousand." The bidder was Feng Changqing, the dean of Fire Phoenix Academy and a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage.

"One million and a half."

"Two million."

"..." Old Tong and Feng Changqing were arguing with each other. This was what Sang Jin was most happy to see.

Finally, the first anti-aging pill was bought by the wealthy Mr. Tong for 3.5 million spirit stones.

The second one was bought by Feng Changqing for two million spirit stones.

Sang Jin suddenly earned millions. Oh my god, she couldn't even imagine it. In the past, earning a hundred spirit stones at once was considered a sudden fortune. This Southern Wilderness Continent, with its abundant spiritual energy, was truly rich.

"After deducting the two treasures Miss Sang won at Huabaolou and the five-point handling fee, the total proceeds are 3.11 million low-grade spirit stones." Butler Hua handed Sang Jin a space ring.

"Yes. Thank you, Butler Hua." Sang Jin put the space ring that Butler Hua gave her into her crescent ring.

Although space rings are precious, they are not so rare that they are impossible to find. A smaller space ring like this, which is about the size of an acre of land, can be afforded by any wealthy family.

What is precious is the crescent ring like the one Master Sang Jin gave her. It is not only beautiful in appearance, but also has a large space inside, which can easily hold a small mountain.

The Hua family also often uses this kind of smaller space ring to give to VIPs in the building. Transactions like Sang Jin's cost millions of spirit stones.

Over three million low-grade spirit stones could be exchanged for over three hundred thousand mid-grade spirit stones, or over thirty thousand high-grade spirit stones. Traveling in this Southern Wilderness Continent, this amount of spirit stones wasn't much. At best, she could be considered a wealthy lady. Sang Jin's worth suddenly skyrocketed.

Sang Jin was in high spirits after leaving Huabao Tower. She gave Li Jingyu one million low-grade spirit stones as a token of gratitude for bringing her into the city. She simply didn't like owing favors to others. Giving him so many spirit stones made future favors seem like a matter of course.

Li Jingyu didn't bother to be polite with her and took the spirit stone. He knew that if he didn't take it, Sang Jin would not let him help again.

Then Sang Jin dragged Li Jingyu to the bank to exchange silver. Since they often traveled in the mortal world, it was more convenient to exchange more silver and banknotes.

"Sang Jin." A young girl's voice came from behind. It was strange that she didn't know anyone here. How could a female cultivator know her name?

"You are..." At this moment, Sang Jin and Li Jingyu were waiting at the bank for the money from the shopkeeper. She exchanged three hundred taels of silver for change, and then received ninety-seven hundred taels of silver notes. It only cost a hundred low-grade spirit stones.

"My name is Hua Li, and I'm sixteen years old. Can we be friends?" Hua Li briefly introduced herself.

"Are you from the Hua family? I'm only five years old. Do you think we can have something to talk about?" Sang Jin didn't want to play with such a brat. She was over a hundred years old. What good was there to talk about with a teenager?

"I love you walking alone in the dark alley." Huali suddenly hummed a strange song.

"I love the way you never come back." Sang Jin added boredly.

"Ah—this song. I...we're from the same place. Sister Sang Jin, can we talk somewhere else?" Hua Li practically jumped for joy. This song was a popular song from the world before she traveled here.

Sang Jin looked at Li Jingyu, then at Hua Li. Her cultivation wasn't high, only at the fifth level of Qi Refining, so she shouldn't pose much of a threat. She was still wearing her robes.

"Wait for me here," said Sang Jin.

"What's the big deal? I'll set up a formation for you, and you can withdraw in an incense stick of time. Is that enough?" Li Jingyu said.

"It will take two incense sticks of time. We sisters have some private matters to discuss." Hua Li said.

Li Jingxu raised his hand and set up an enhanced centrifugal formation for the two of them, adding white smoke into it.

"Sure, this is the modern version of a movable soundproof wall. And it's so hidden." Hua Li joked.

"Okay, now you can tell me. How come you also know that song?" Sang Jin couldn't wait to know the reason.

"We all come from the same place, insects fly, insects fly..." Huali sang again.

"Are you from the Eastern Wasteland Continent?" Sang Jin thought the woman before her was strange. She was singing this strange song again. She was talking to her master in the same strange way.

"Eastern Desolate Continent? I traveled here from the 21st century. It's just a time-space mess." Hua Li traveled here ten years ago and was reborn as Hua Li, the daughter of the Hua family. Before traveling here, she was a top salesperson at a food company.

"The 21st century? What kind of place is that? The spiritual energy of the Eastern Desolate Continent is thin. I was forced to death and was reborn here." Sang Jin could sense the girl's lack of murderous intent. From her description, she seemed to be in a similar situation, having come to the Southern Desolate Continent from another continent. So she told him everything, except for the secret realm.

"Aren't you from the same place as me? Then how do you know that song?" Hua Li felt a little disappointed. The little girl before her didn't come from the same world as her. But it was good, she knew that this little girl was also a reborn person like her. And she seemed to be quite impressive.

"That song you're talking about? My master used to sing it often, and I learned it by listening to it." Sang Jin said in confusion. Hua Li was very fond of this song.

"Your master? Where is your master now? Your master must be from the same world as me. The numbers you know are called Arabic numerals, which are unique to our world." Hua Li said excitedly.

"My master ascended long ago, and I don't know where he is." When the master was teaching her numbers, he had indeed mentioned that they were called Arabic numerals. He said they were invented by a country called Arabia. The woman wasn't lying.

She is from my master's hometown, so it's not impossible to make friends with her.

"I see, you've all ascended. That's impressive. I wonder if I'll ever achieve something like that. I was originally 26 years old, but I was only six when I traveled through time. It looks like you've just traveled through time. Let's play a game. I'll tell you a truth, and you'll tell me one, too."
