Can I create a cross object formula when the original field is created from a formula?

I'm trying to create a cross-object formula on a Tour Record to reference a field on a custom object called Contract to reference the  Contract_Sold_Date__c.  I have the formula working using the date function. However the Contract sold date field is also created from a formula on the original record.  Is this allowed?  Should I be using the Text function instead?  When trying to use the insert function on the advanced formula, I noted those fields are not available.

As an alternative, I tried to create both a process builder and a workflow to accomplish this and the secondary field was not available for selection.  Thank you.
