The pregnancy didn't come easy but he was grateful he had helped before the sudden death of Zhang Long Wei. He remembered when he had gone to the Sunset-Hills village in the northern province to look for a senior alchemist named Huang Fu — an immortal cultivator of the peak stage golden core — in order to buy the Heavens Spring spirit pill. Alchemist Huang Fu had lived for over five million years which was a reasonable years of experience. Not minding that, golden core cultivators had a lifespan of hundred million years.

He had seen all forms of life on planet Lorra and decided there was nothing left for him in the mortal world. So, he had chosen a simple life to work towards his ascension to the heavenly plane. He had been focusing on his alchemy and cultivating in seclusion to gather the necessary items needed during and after his ascension. He had long concocted a transcendence pill that could easily take him to the ascension stage but was taking his time to prepare further.

"Welcome to my humble home, fellow Daoist. I'm Huang Fu but I believe you already knew that."

Said alchemist Huang Fu as he looked jovially at Zhang Li Qiang.

"Greetings Daoist Huang Fu. My name is Zhang Li Qiang. I came from the Skydome city in the southern province, here on Ankhor continent."

"That's a long way from home. What bring you all the way to my place, fellow Daoist Zhang Li Qiang?"

"Thank you alchemist Huang Fu. I have heard about your pills and the wonders they can perform. So, I came to see if I can acquire the Rainbow-Womb spirit pill for my wife. I heard it's especially good for the unborn baby. I will be very grateful if it's available for me to buy."

He had pleadingly sought assurances about the pill's availability from the alchemist. He knew alchemists were not under any pressure to sell their products unless they wanted to. Some alchemist would even send the buyer away without even listening to the buyer's words. Alchemists were at the center of proceedings in the cultivation world. Their position was highly coveted and mostly secured.

"Hm, the Rainbow-Womb spirit pill. Yes, it's really good for a baby in the womb. However, the pill only contained the refined life essence energy from some notable sources. Although I have to admit that the materials were very rare and a little difficult to gather. And once consumed, the essence energy in the pill will combine with the womb nourishments to form the Cloud-Of-Life around the baby. It naturally flows through the meridians of the baby."

Alchemist Huang Fu had stopped for a moment and contemplated before continuing.

"But I need to tell you this, fellow daoist. The effectiveness of the pill will depend on your child. On how much of the essence energy the child can absorb and retain inside the body. While the womb nourishments is left to the mother. So, the outcome is not totally on me."

He had slowly uttered as he stared keenly at the thoughtful face of Zhang Li Qian .

"However, I can tell you that the pill is safe and works accordingly. And yes, I do have one. Only three were ever made according to my memory and two of those were made by my father before his ascension. One was sold but the outcome of it was not that effective. The result and the materials needed made my father to abandon it. When I came across some of the needed materials, I decided to give it a go. I searched for the other materials for hundreds of thousands of years. I also had to use some alternative materials but the effect should be the same. Nonetheless, if you want to buy it, it will cost you fifty thousand high grade spirit stones."

"Uh?"

Zhang Li Qiang had been caught off-guard with the steep price before he quickly gathered his thoughts together. The price was majority of his ancestral inheritance which put him in a difficult situation. However, if the pill worked accordingly as he believed it would, the high price would be justified.

"Okay, I will take it."

It was very costly but he had taken it with a hopeful heart. Now, remembering the effect on his daughter after she had taken the pill and now tgat she was pregnant, was bringing abundant joy to his grateful heart. With a wide smile on his face, he continued his walk to the farm.

Whereas, somewhere in the village market, Zhang Wang Jing saw a road antique merchant and branched to check his products. Not frequently would someone see an antique dealer, so, she might just use this opportunity to find something nice. She was looking for something good but also cheap.

"Greetings, Nu-Shi. Do you want to take a look at my collections? Maybe, you can find something fancy that can catch your eyes? As a matter of fact, I have all existing collections of antiques. Magical, decorative, talismans, seals ... I have them all."

Zhang Wang Jing went through the collections and saw a small white crystal pagoda that caught her eyes. This was something she could give Xiu Ying's child when the would child grow up. It really looked beautiful as a gift for a child.

"I'll like to get this little crystal pagoda. How much does it cost?"

"Oh, you have great eyes, Nu-Shi. This is the gate of the seven realms of fortune. You may see this is empty bragging, but this is the best antique you can find and there's a myth about it too. This pagoda is golden gateway that leads to seven ancient realms with all forms of treasures. You name it, Nu-Shi, and it's there. You see the layers of the pagoda, Nu Shi? They are layers of treasures. Even just having it can bring you good fortunes."

"And why is it not bringing you fortune? I believe you would have kept it for yourself if it has all sort of treasures. Wouldn't you?"

"Ah, it's fate, Nu-Shi. Fate. Me and the pagoda are not fated to be together. But you Nu Shi, you are fated to have it. Destiny is on your side and I can feel it."

"Hehehe, very funny. You merchants have ways with words. How much is it anyway?"

"Nu-Shi, with a heart full of sorrow, I will take five thousand pure grade spirit stones from you."

"Eh? Five thousand high grades? Am I buying a graded treasure? I don't have that amount but I can give you one thousand high grade stones, if you agree."

"Make it two thousand then, Nu Shi, and it will be."

"Hm. Okay, two thousand it is."

Their quiet life in the cave went on without any disturbance. Two months later, Zhang Xiu Ying gave birth to a boy and named him Ju Feng.

Reincarnation completed.
