I was reborn as a young master in an invincible family of immortals

After many twists and turns, Lin Yun finally returned to the familiar sect. The towering mountain gate appeared even more solemn under the sunlight, as if a kind elder opened his arms to welcome the disciples returning from a long journey.

He slowly entered the sect, each step imbued with a sense of nostalgia and reassurance for this familiar land. Every blade of grass, every brick, every tile exuded a familiar atmosphere. Disciples moved about, practicing or chatting, creating a bustling scene. Lin Yun's fatigue seemed to be swept away by this familiar atmosphere. He simply wanted to return to his residence quickly, rest, and process all the thrilling experiences he had experienced while away.

Lin Yun returned to his residence in a corner of the sect. It was a small but cozy room. The furnishings were simple: a table, a chair, and a bed. Hanging on the walls were several landscape paintings he had painted himself. Though his brushwork was immature, they added a touch of elegance to the room.

He gently placed his sword on the table, then sat down on the edge of his bed, closed his eyes, and began to carefully review his experiences on this trip. From the scorching heat and danger of the Phantom Flame Valley to the unpredictable wonders of the Spiritual Realm, scenes flashed through his mind. The moments fighting alongside his companions, the inner struggles he felt when facing the unknown and the fear, and the gratitude he felt after each escape from danger, all filled him with emotion.

"This trip was really a journey of hardship, but I also gained a lot. Not only has my strength improved, but my understanding of the way of cultivating immortals has also deepened." Lin Yun thought silently in his heart. He knew that these experiences would become valuable assets on his future path of cultivation.

After careful consideration, Lin Yun decided to retreat for a period of time to consolidate his gains and further improve his cultivation. He knew that in this world of immortal cultivation, strength was the foundation of survival. Only by constantly becoming stronger could he cope with the various challenges that might arise in the future.

So, he rose and set about setting up the formations needed for his retreat. He pulled various rare materials from his storage ring, arranged them according to specific orientations, then injected spiritual energy into them and activated the formations. With a faint flicker of light, the retreat formations were complete, and the spiritual energy within the room began to slowly converge, forming a relatively independent and rich spiritual energy cultivation space.

Lin Yun sat in the center of the formation, took a deep breath, calmed his mind, and prepared to devote himself to cultivation. He first slowly circulated the spiritual energy in his body, following the path of the exercises he had learned, allowing the spiritual energy to circulate through his meridians, gradually eliminating some of the impurities left over from the battle and making the spiritual energy more pure.

During his retreat, Lin Yun immersed himself in the world of cultivation. He constantly adjusted the way his spiritual power was circulated, trying to integrate some of the new insights he gained from outside into his cultivation.

As time passed, Lin Yun gained a deeper understanding of the path of cultivation. He discovered that cultivating the immortal realm wasn't just about pursuing greater spiritual power and reaching new realms, but rather a process of understanding and integrating oneself with the natural world. Every time spiritual energy flowed through his meridians, it felt like a silent dialogue with the spiritual forces of heaven and earth. He could sense the rhythm of nature, the aura of mountains and rivers, all glimpsed and tangled in this flow of spiritual energy.

As his cultivation deepened, Lin Yun's cultivation base steadily improved. The spiritual energy within him became increasingly refined, and his meridians became stronger and more resilient under the nourishment of spiritual energy, like a broad and solid river channel, capable of carrying more and stronger spiritual energy.

After months of closed-door training, Lin Yun finally achieved his desired goal and decided to emerge. As he removed the closed-door formation and opened the door, a gust of fresh air hit him, making him feel refreshed.

Lin Yun left his residence, preparing to take a walk in the back mountains to relax his nerves, strained by days of seclusion. On the trail back there, he spotted a familiar figure in the distance. It was a female disciple from the sect, named Su Yao. She was graceful, her white dress whiter than snow, fluttering gently in the breeze, like a fairy from a painting.

Lin Yun's heart suddenly beat faster uncontrollably. He and Su Yao had known each other for a long time, but every time they met in the past, they just said hello in a hurry and had not had much in-depth communication. But for some reason, when he saw her again this time, he felt that Su Yao was more beautiful than ever before. Her bright eyes, white teeth, and sweet smile were deeply imprinted in his mind.

Su Yao seemed to notice someone was looking at her. She turned around and saw Lin Yun. A hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, and then she walked over with a smile. "Brother Lin Yun, you're out of seclusion. I believe you must have gained a lot from this retreat?" Her voice was crisp and pleasant, like a clear spring flowing in the mountains, which made Lin Yun's heart tremble again.

Lin Yun hurriedly gathered his thoughts and replied with a smile, "Well, the harvest is not bad. Junior Sister Su Yao, what are you doing in the back mountain?"

Su Yao smiled gently and said, "I usually like to walk in the back mountain, look at the flowers and trees, and feel the breath of nature. I think this can make my mind more peaceful and it will also help with cultivation."

The two of them walked and chatted. They talked about some interesting things in the sect, their own experience in cultivation, and their aspirations for the future path of cultivation. Lin Yun found that he and Su Yao had many common topics. Every conversation made him feel very happy, as if time had slowed down at this moment.

Before they knew it, they had reached a lake in the back mountains. The water was crystal clear, reflecting the sky and the surrounding mountains like a giant mirror. Willow trees swayed by the lake, their branches swaying in the wind, gently brushing the surface and creating ripples.

Lin Yun and Su Yao stood by the lake, quietly admiring the beautiful scenery. At this moment, the air seemed to be filled with a subtle atmosphere. Neither of them spoke anymore, but the distance between them was unconsciously shortened. Lin Yun could feel his heartbeat getting faster and faster. He secretly glanced at Su Yao, only to find that Su Yao's cheeks were also slightly flushed. That shy look made his heart beat even more.

After a while, Su Yao broke the silence. She raised her head, looked at Lin Yun shyly, and said softly, "Brother Lin Yun, actually...actually, I have always admired you. Every time you go out and complete a mission, you can bring back a lot of interesting stories, and your attitude towards cultivation is also admirable to me."

Lin Yun was overjoyed. He had never expected Su Yao to have such a fondness for him. He mustered up his courage, reached out and gently held Su Yao's hand, and said, "Junior Sister Su Yao, I've always had...different feelings for you, but I never dared to express them before."

Su Yao's face turned even redder. She lowered her head and let Lin Yun hold her hand. She looked shy and sweet. At this moment, the feelings between the two seemed to bloom quietly by the lake in the back mountain, like flowers blooming in spring, exuding an intoxicating fragrance.

Lin Yun and Su Yao stood by the lake for a long time, enjoying this rare sweet moment. Finally, Lin Yun looked at Su Yao with deep affection in his eyes and said, "Junior Sister Su Yao, I will always be with you in the future. Let's practice together in this sect and face the ups and downs of the future together, okay?"

Su Yao raised her head, tears in her eyes, but they were tears of happiness. She nodded and said, "Well, Senior Brother Lin Yun, I do."

From then on, Lin Yun and Su Yao often stayed together within the sect. They cultivated together, exchanged ideas, and shared their joys and sorrows. Throughout their journey to immortality, their relationship, like their cultivation, continued to grow and deepen, becoming a legendary story within the sect.
