634: Chapter 437 634: Chapter 437 The North City Immortal Sect’s old ancestor, having obtained two Supreme Elixirs, was annoyed to find that Jiang Tang not only did not tell him his name but also locked him in here.
Watching Jiang Tang walk out, with the room’s walls sealed again, the North City Immortal Sect’s old ancestor wanted to scream in madness, yet in the end, he was captivated by the Pills in his hand.
He opened a bottle and felt his soul become much clearer, this was the Nourishing Soul Pill that everyone desired.
It’s not to say that a mighty figure like him did not need it; it was precisely the lack of such resources that had made him seclude himself for hundreds of years without progress.
If he had had such items before his last seclusion, why would he have wasted hundreds of years, vainly squandering his youth like that?
In pursuit of the path to Longevity, to become an Immortal, no matter how arduous the road ahead, he harbored no regret or resentment!
Having toyed with the North City Immortal Sect’s old ancestor, Jiang Tang felt a kind of loneliness that nobody could defy, akin to a martial arts master who, rising from obscurity, became the top fighter and then had no equal to challenge, thus feeling very lonely.
Jiang Tang now had such a feeling, as the North City Immortal Sect’s old ancestor was already one of the powerful individuals in the Cultivation World, and in a one-on-one the opponent could not resist.
Being bullied by him into fighting, he wondered if he would be at a disadvantage if over a dozen adults ganged up on him.
Jiang Tang thought it would be interesting to try and exchange blows with those old geezers.
However, his two bases were not yet built, and he was not about to start brawling just yet.
Brawling is something a bored person would do, and he was not bored yet.
Jiang Tang emerged from the Magical Treasure and got busy with his next task, designing a Formation for this new base.
First and foremost was the mountain gate Formation, and he had to lay down jade stones around the entire base as Formation nodes.
This time, Jiang Tang did not use golden Energy Stones but silver Moonlight Stones instead.
Both types of Energy Stones served different purposes but functioned in the same way.
Jiang Tang flew around the entire base—not using a Flying Artifact but simply flying—and his speed was in no way slower than that of a Flying Artifact.
Those subordinates…
when can we ever reach such heights?
Those ordinary people…
that’s what true Immortals are!
The Marquis, along with his family, was busy building houses, sourcing materials from the local environment—wood and stone from the mountains, and tiles for the roofs, which they could make by setting up tile kilns and incidentally use to fire bricks for house construction.
The Marquis realized that among his family there were experts in these tasks; formerly slaves, they had experience in building houses, firing kilns, and various other tasks.
There were also craftsmen with the skill to build houses, as well as sculptors who could carve into the structures.
So, all the craftsmen pooled together, everyone doing their work, with those unskilled doing odd jobs, chopping wood on the mountains and carrying it down.
As for the pretty girls, they found some hemp on the mountain, which could be used for weaving, helping to make clothes for the men and women here.
The others, who didn’t have such skills or were idle, cooked meals, did laundry, and took care of household chores.
The Marquis saw that they were diligent and looked forward to a better life, their eyes no longer dull and lifeless.
He couldn’t wait to bring the rest of the people from the stockade over to this carefree and improved living condition.
The Marquis was also aware that the people over there were not going to easily give up the stockade.
If they came here and found no houses to live in, they would surely complain.
Unlike these people who had no houses or homes to begin with, they could only wait until the houses here were built before relocating the people from the stockade.
Yan Weiwei and her family, as well as Cai Xiangxiang and Ye Tian, arrived at the new place and set about building their own homes.
With Ye Tian, the Cultivator, there, the construction of a house went very quickly with the help of Yan Weiwei and Cai Xiangxiang.
First, they chopped wood on the mountain.
Wasn’t chopping wood much faster with Spells?
Not only did they chop, but they also pruned the branches and used their Spells to dry the trees.
Compared to those ordinary people who had to physically transport timber down the mountain, they were much faster, using their Spells to move it.
The large stones from the mountain were also transported down by Spells, then shaped into bricks for building the house with their Spells.
Other tools were even easier to manage; Ye Tian, who could refine items, quickly turned some clay into tiles using his Spells—much faster than firing them in a kiln.
Considering that the big family needed to live together, they required sons and a courtyard.
Then, Yan Weiwei and Cai Xiangxiang built another courtyard, alongside others for children and workers, while Ye Tian also constructed his own courtyard here.
Since the land was wide and the fields were suitable for cultivation, they could also be used for homesteads.
As they could use Spells, leveling a mountain was nothing to them when it came to building houses.
Ye Tian had previously lived in a cave dwelling at the North City Immortal Sect, but now he chose to stay in Yan Weiwei’s house to get closer to her.
He no longer heeded the urgent summonses from the King, desiring to spend more days with Yan Weiwei—after all, the country was not facing any more critical situations at the moment.
Ye Tian thought so partly because he had seen those terrifying terrorists and their islands, with their warships either sunk or burned.
He was also aware of the troublemakers in the Imperial City, although they weren’t causing enough upheaval.
With his family and Tang Feiyang there, these issues were not a concern.
Tang Feiyang, busy in the Imperial City, monitored those women who constantly gathered—lasses and ladies alike.
