Top-level Qi Luck: Leading My Clan to Cultivate

Chapter 283: Chapter 190: Convergence_2

The two busied themselves for a good quarter of an hour, classifying and recording all the treasures. After completing these tasks, they began to close their eyes to conserve energy, waiting for the secret realm to close and teleport them out.

Less than half an hour later, a series of rumbling sounds came, and the earth began to shake violently.

Lin Tianming and his companion opened their eyes and could clearly feel that the spiritual light that had submerged into their Sky Spirit Covers when they entered the secret realm was stirring.

Lin Shilu exclaimed with a look of surprise and excitement, “Tianming, the secret realm is about to close, let’s get out immediately!”

Upon hearing this, Lin Tianming’s face lit up with excitement. They had waited two days for this moment. Both nodded to each other and immediately dashed out of the natural cavern.

Soon, the ground stopped shaking, and a dazzling light flashed across the clear blue sky.

As the light in the sky grew stronger, the two experienced a sharp pain in their divine sense, followed by a bout of dizziness in their minds, and their bodies uncontrollably swept toward the void as if yanked by some force.

When the two regained their normal senses, they found themselves in an unfamiliar valley.

Fortunately, there were no other people around, and they both heaved a sigh of relief.

Lin Shilu extended his divine sense to search the surroundings of the two of them, detecting no abnormalities.

Regaining his composure, he spoke in an even tone, “Tianming, we are still unable to determine our location, but according to the records, when a secret realm closes, cultivators inside are most likely to be teleported near the entrance.”

Hearing Lin Shilu’s words, Lin Tianming nodded, his tense nerves relaxing a bit.

He had been genuinely worried that they would be separated upon exiting the secret realm, as was the case when they entered. At such a critical moment, it was certain that some cultivators with impure motives would be out to kill and rob.

After all, those cultivators with impure motives could not enter the secret realm, but by killing just one person, they could opportunistically seize the fortune obtained from within the realm.

With these thoughts in mind, Lin Tianming said to Lin Shilu, “Fifteenth Grandfather, the crisis is not yet over. Let us have the Purple Gold Eagle fly us north immediately. Once we determine our location, we’ll head straight back to the family!”

Lin Shilu nodded. They carried treasures that were immensely important to the family, and there was no time for consideration; they needed to return to the family as quickly as possible.

Understanding this, Lin Tianming swiftly released the Purple Gold Eagle from the Spirit Beast Bag.

After feeding the Purple Gold Eagle a segment of the Green-Spotted Poison Python’s body, the two mounted its back, and the eagle swiftly ascended into the clouds, heading north.

Sitting on the broad back of the Purple Gold Eagle, Lin Shilu kept his divine sense fully extended, ever vigilant of their surroundings.

The Purple Gold Eagle carried the two for nearly a hundred miles. Using the features of the surrounding mountain ranges to guide them, they quickly determined their precise location—within the Whirlwind Mountain Range of Huangyang Kingdom.

However, their position was somewhat deeper in the mountains than the entrance to the secret realm. The journey home would take them across a vast expanse of the Whirlwind Mountain Range, possibly encountering other cultivators.

Fortunately, as they traveled together, and as long as they did not come across cultivators above the eighth level of Foundation Establishment, they should have nothing to fear with their strength.

Moreover, within these vast mountains, who would know whether they were of any particular identity or if they had entered the secret realm.

With this in mind, as long as they remained cautious, they would be able to enter the territory of Wei Kingdom after traveling more than eight hundred miles. Once within Wei Kingdom, they would not be far from the Luoyun Mountain Range. Should they successfully rendezvous with Lin Xingrong, they would be completely safe.

Resolving to do this, the two decided to fly in a straight line and return to their clan’s territory at top speed.

Having made up their minds, Lin Tianming signaled to the Purple Gold Eagle, which, understanding his intention, picked up speed and continued flying north.

…

In the Whirlwind Mountain Range, near a valley on the side closer to Wei Kingdom.@@novelbin@@

This place was only a couple hundred miles from the edge of the Purple Sun Mountain Range, still at the border between the two countries.

In the beautiful valley, where vegetation was lush, occasional common wild beasts scurried, unaware of two figures lurking atop a large tree.

One of them, looking toward the depths of the Whirlwind Mountain Range, mumbled, “Third Uncle, Tianming and his companion should pass by here, shouldn’t they?”

Upon hearing this, Lin Xingrong maintained a calm demeanor. Lin Xingrong had already asked this question three times, and each time he had answered, yet he was being asked again.

A Foundation Establishment Cultivator who can’t remember things?

Clearly, Lin Xingrong was excessively worried; after all, entering the Secret Realm was too dangerous, and with the large number of Late Foundation Establishment Cultivators entering, even if the two of them joined forces, they couldn’t guarantee their safety.

Being fully aware of this, Lin Shikang did not get angry, and instead spoke to reassure him,

“Xingrong, I had an agreement with Tianming before they left, that as soon as they come out of the Whirlwind Mountain Range, they will definitely meet up here. Don’t worry!”

Upon hearing Lin Shikang’s response, Lin Xingrong finally felt somewhat relieved.

The family had temporarily summoned him back from Golden Horn Mountain to facilitate their return, and with Lin Tianming and Lin Shilu entering the Secret Realm, the overall strength of the family was now higher with just the two of them.

With their departure from the family land, the entire family now relied on Lin Shigong and Lin Shihua to oversee the premises, significantly reducing the security of Green Bamboo Mountain.

However, this was a necessary move. Although the family had many Foundation Establishment Cultivators, they had broken through too recently, so their cultivation was not high. Additionally, they were spread too thin, with Lin Xingyuan presiding over Luoyun Market and Lin Xingping in Qianchuan Market, so he could only be temporarily reassigned.

However, the family had made considerable progress over these past ten-plus years, with those advancing from the Qi Refinement Realm to the Foundation Establishment Stage experiencing a qualitative leap in overall strength.

What the family lacked now was time, since ten-plus years were still very brief for Foundation Establishing Families. Given another fifty years, the Lin Family’s Foundation Establishment Cultivators would definitely be able to enter the mid to late phase of the stage.

By then, the family would no longer face restrictions as they did now.

“Fifteenth Grandfather, nearly two days have passed since the Secret Realm closed. If they are still in the area of the Whirlwind Mountain Range, they should have arrived by now!” Lin Xingrong said.

Upon hearing these words, Lin Shikang’s normally unflappable face briefly revealed a hint of concern, but he quickly regained his composure.

He had always had great confidence in Lin Tianming and the others, especially Tianming. As the most talented member of the family since its foundation, Tianming had been through many battles and his strength far surpassed cultivators at the same level. His quirky, unfettered ideas often led to unexpected advancements.

Besides these, with the experienced Lin Shilu accompanying him, it was unlikely there would be any mishaps.

With these thoughts in mind, Lin Shikang’s expression brightened. Seeing the faint worry on Lin Xingrong’s face, he said,

“Xingrong, extend your reach a bit more toward the depths of the Whirlwind Mountain Range, but don’t go too far. If any unforeseen incident occurs, I won’t be able to support you in time!”

Hearing Lin Shikang’s instruction, Lin Xingrong nodded and then swept toward the deeper parts of the mountain range.

Just as he was turning to leave, Lin Shikang’s expression suddenly turned ecstatic, and he immediately shot off at an unbelievably fast speed.

Seeing this, Lin Xingrong guessed the reason and immediately followed.

An hour later, atop a mountain, Lin Shikang stood with his hands behind his back, watching as a black shadow in the sky grew larger, his face brimming with excitement.

The pursuing Lin Xingrong, seeing the shadow in the sky, took a long breath of relief.

Soon, the shadow grew larger, and finally, it landed in front of Lin Shikang. The two people who approached were indeed Lin Tianming and another.

After two days of continuous travel, they had managed to journey without rest, and thankfully, with their not insignificant cultivation levels and having disguised their appearances, they had a relatively smooth journey, even though they encountered several Foundation Establishment Cultivators. After some probing attacks, realizing the strength of the two, the blocking cultivators had no choice but to watch them leave.

Having travelled for two days, they finally crossed the Whirlwind Mountain Range safely and without mishap, meeting up with Lin Shikang, whose cultivation was at the Foundation Establishment Ninth Level, thus eliminating their immediate danger.

At this moment, they could finally relax their constantly tense expressions.

When they reached Lin Shikang, Lin Tianming immediately greeted with a fist and palm salute.

“Tianming pays respects to Third Grandfather, and to Father!”

Before the words fell, Lin Shikang stepped forward, taking their hands and asking eagerly, “Was your journey smooth? Have you been injured?”

Seeing Lin Shikang’s concerned manner, which did not mention any gains at all, Lin Tianming felt deeply gratified.

Lin Shilu felt the same, but he was well aware of Lin Shikang’s nature. He chuckled, then said,

“Third Brother, we are both unharmed. It’s not safe to linger here, so let’s return to the family land first. As for the expedition to the Secret Realm, we can talk on the way!”

“Alright then!”

“Although we have successfully gathered, we must not be complacent. Let’s set out immediately and head back to the family first!”

Following Lin Shikang’s words, the group of four hopped onto the back of a Purple Gold Eagle, ready to travel through the night back to Green Bamboo Mountain.
