Chapter 60 Leaving Home

Chapter 60: Chapter 60 Leaving Home

The road ahead stretched endlessly beneath the clear blue sky.

Behind them was the Lin Clan.

Ahead of them was the vast outside world.

Lin Chen stood calmly on his flying sword.

The wind brushed against his face as he looked toward the distant horizon.

Beside him, Lin Qing flew at the same pace.

Lin Mo and Lin Yu followed behind.

Lin Xin, Lin Wan’er, Lin Shiyu, and Lin Ruyan traveled alongside them.

For the first time—

They were truly outside the Lin Clan.

No Battle Tower.

No training grounds.

No cultivation halls.

No elders supervising them.

Just the open sky.

Lin Xin suddenly spread her arms.

"Ahhhhh!"

Everyone looked at her.

She laughed.

"This feels amazing!"

Lin Wan’er giggled.

"We’ve only been outside for a few hours."

"So?"

Lin Xin turned toward her.

"That’s still a few hours!"

Lin Shiyu nodded seriously.

"I agree with Xin."

Lin Yu shook his head.

"You three are too excited."

Lin Mo laughed.

"Can you blame them?"

Lin Qing smiled.

"After spending so much time inside the clan, traveling freely really does feel different."

Lin Chen nodded.

"That’s why we’re here."

They continued flying.

---

The wilderness stretched beneath them.

They passed over enormous forests.

They crossed several rivers.

They flew above mountain ranges covered in clouds.

Occasionally, they saw groups of cultivators traveling along the roads below.

Some rode horses.

Some traveled in carriages.

Others flew on swords just like them.

Lin Xin occasionally pointed toward something interesting.

"Look!"

"What?"

"That mountain!"

Everyone looked.

"It’s shaped like a turtle!"

Lin Wan’er laughed.

"That’s not a turtle."

"It looks like one!"

Lin Shiyu nodded.

"It really does."

Lin Yu sighed.

"How did this become a discussion?"

Lin Mo laughed.

"Because we’re traveling."

Lin Qing smiled.

Even Lin Chen couldn’t help laughing.

The atmosphere was completely different from their usual training.

They weren’t thinking about cultivation.

They weren’t thinking about missions.

They weren’t thinking about enemies.

They were simply enjoying themselves.

---

After several hours of traveling, the group finally descended near a small town.

The town was called Greenhill Town.

It was a peaceful settlement surrounded by several green mountains.

There were no enormous palaces.

No terrifying formations.

No powerful cultivators.

Just ordinary houses, shops, streets, and cultivators moving about their daily lives.

Lin Xin looked around curiously.

"So this is how ordinary cultivators live?"

Lin Qing nodded.

"It seems much simpler than the clan."

Lin Ruyan smiled.

"I actually like it."

They walked through the town.

They ate at a roadside stall.

They bought some small items from merchants.

They watched ordinary cultivators practice techniques in an open courtyard.

They even listened to several cultivators discussing famous sects and powerful figures.

For the eight young members of the Lin Clan—

Everything was interesting.

Even the simplest things.

At one point, Lin Xin stared at a merchant selling wooden carvings.

She picked up a small dragon.

"How much?"

The merchant smiled.

"Five Copper Coins."

Lin Xin looked at Lin Chen.

"What’s a Copper Coin?"

Everyone became silent.

Lin Yu covered his face.

"We’ve really lived too comfortably."

Lin Mo burst out laughing.

Lin Qing also laughed.

Lin Chen simply took out several Copper Coins and handed them to the merchant.

"Here."

Lin Xin happily took the wooden dragon.

"Thank you!"

The merchant smiled.

"No problem."

They continued walking.

---

By evening, they decided to spend the night in Greenhill Town.

They stayed at a simple inn.

The rooms weren’t luxurious.

The spiritual energy wasn’t particularly dense.

But nobody complained.

They had come here to experience ordinary life.

That night, they sat together downstairs.

Lin Xin was still holding her wooden dragon.

Lin Wan’er looked at it.

"Why did you buy that?"

"It’s cute."

"It’s just a wooden dragon."

"Exactly."

Lin Shiyu nodded.

"I think it’s cute too."

Lin Yu sighed.

"You’re all too easily entertained."

Lin Mo looked at him.

"And yet you’re still sitting here with us."

Lin Yu smiled.

"Because it’s peaceful."

Lin Ruyan quietly drank her tea.

She looked around at everyone.

A small smile appeared on her face.

It was nice.

No pressure.

No expectations.

Just friends and family traveling together.

---

The next morning—

They left Greenhill Town.

Their flying swords rose into the sky once again.

They continued traveling.

After several more hours, they finally arrived at another large road.

A massive stone monument stood beside it.

Several destinations were carved into the stone.

Lin Chen slowed down.

Everyone stopped.

The four names immediately caught their attention.

Azure River City.

Moon River City.

Cloudmist City.

Jadeheart Valley.

Lin Xin looked at the names.

"Where should we go?"

Lin Yu studied the monument.

"Azure River City is the closest."

Lin Mo shook his head.

"We’ve already been there."

Lin Qing nodded.

"Let’s go somewhere we’ve never been."

Lin Shiyu pointed toward the third destination.

"Cloudmist City?"

Lin Wan’er shook her head.

"What about Jadeheart Valley?"

Everyone looked toward her.

Lin Wan’er smiled.

"It sounds beautiful."

Lin Xin immediately nodded.

"I want to go!"

Lin Mo laughed.

"That’s your only reason?"

"Yes."

Lin Yu sighed.

"Again?"

Lin Qing laughed.

Lin Chen looked at everyone.

Nobody objected.

He smiled.

"Then Jadeheart Valley."

The group immediately changed direction.

Their flying swords accelerated.

---

After some time—

The landscape changed.

The mountains became more beautiful.

Flowers covered the hillsides.

A faint fragrance filled the air.

Soon, they saw a massive valley surrounded by green mountains.

At the entrance stood a stone monument.

Jadeheart Valley.

Lin Xin’s eyes brightened.

"Wow."

Lin Wan’er smiled.

"It’s beautiful."

Lin Shiyu nodded.

"I like this place."

The group descended.

They walked into the valley.

The atmosphere was peaceful.

Many cultivators were gathered around the various streets and marketplaces.

There were merchants selling spiritual herbs.

Pill shops.

Alchemy materials.

Small restaurants.

Cultivation stores.

The group wandered around casually.

Then—

They heard several excited voices from nearby.

"Did you hear?"

"The alchemy gathering is about to begin!"

"Already?"

"Yes!"

"I heard several Rank 5 Pill Masters are participating!"

"Even some major sects are sending their disciples!"

Lin Ruyan stopped walking.

Her eyes slowly turned toward the group of cultivators.

Lin Xin noticed.

She immediately smiled.

"Ruyan."

Lin Ruyan looked at her.

"What?"

Lin Wan’er covered her mouth.

"You heard them too."

Lin Shiyu giggled.

Lin Mo looked at Lin Ruyan.

"So..."

Lin Yu smiled.

"Looks like your opportunity found you."

Lin Ruyan shook her head helplessly.

"Don’t look at me like that, guys."

Lin Xin laughed.

"Your time to shine came earlier than ours!"

Lin Wan’er nodded.

"That’s right!"

Lin Shiyu smiled.

"Your time came first."

Lin Ruyan sighed.

"My time to shine came earlier than you guys."

She looked toward the distant street.

"But your times will come too."

Lin Chen smiled.

"Let’s first find out more about the gathering."

They approached one of the cultivators discussing it.

Lin Chen asked:

"Excuse me."

The cultivator turned around.

"Yes?"

"We heard you talking about an alchemy gathering."

The cultivator immediately became enthusiastic.

"Ah, you’re interested?"

Lin Ruyan nodded.

"Where will it be held?"

The cultivator pointed toward the east.

"Not here."

"It’s being held on the Canglan Continent."

The group froze.

Lin Qing asked:

"Another continent?"

"Yes."

The cultivator nodded.

"But don’t worry."

"Jadeheart Valley has a teleportation formation."

Lin Chen’s eyes narrowed slightly.

"Teleportation formation?"

"Exactly."

"You simply pay the required Spirit Stones, and the formation will send you directly to the Canglan Continent."

Lin Ruyan’s eyes brightened.

Lin Xin immediately turned toward her.

"Ruyan..."

Lin Ruyan smiled.

"Don’t say it."

Lin Wan’er laughed.

"Your opportunity is right in front of you."

Lin Shiyu nodded.

"We have to go!"

Lin Yu looked toward Lin Chen.

"Should we?"

Lin Chen glanced at the others.

Everyone was clearly interested.

Lin Ruyan didn’t say anything.

But her eyes were already shining.

Lin Chen smiled.

"Let’s go."

The group thanked the cultivator.

Then they turned toward the direction he had indicated.

---

Far above them—

Four figures remained hidden within the void.

They had followed the group the entire journey.

One of the True Immortal elders looked down.

"They’ve chosen their next destination."

Another nodded.

"The Canglan Continent."

The third elder smiled.

"It seems their journey is becoming interesting."

The fourth elder calmly replied:

"As long as they remain safe, we don’t need to interfere."

The four figures disappeared deeper into the void.

---

Below—

The eight young members of the Lin Clan walked toward the teleportation formation.

Lin Ruyan’s footsteps were slightly faster than everyone else’s.

Lin Xin noticed.

She immediately laughed.

"Ruyan, slow down!"

Lin Ruyan turned around.

"I didn’t do anything!"

"You were walking faster!"

"I wasn’t!"

Everyone laughed.

The teleportation formation gradually came into view.

A massive circular platform stood at the end of the street.

Ancient runes covered its surface.

Several cultivators were waiting nearby.

A formation master stood beside it, collecting Spirit Stones from travelers.

Lin Chen looked at the formation.

Then at the others.

The eight exchanged glances.

Their journey had already taken them farther than they had expected.

And now—

They were about to leave the Azure Cloud Continent.

Lin Chen smiled.

"Ready?"

Lin Qing nodded.

Lin Mo grinned.

Lin Yu adjusted his clothes.

Lin Xin excitedly raised her hand.

"Ready!"

Lin Wan’er and Lin Shiyu laughed.

Lin Ruyan looked toward the glowing formation.

Her eyes were filled with anticipation.

The eight continued walking toward the teleportation formation.

None of them knew what awaited them on the Canglan Continent.

But they were ready to find out.
