After being reborn, I took my childhood sweetheart to cultivate immortality.

When the appointed time arrived, fewer than seventy people had returned, and Yu Jinchen decided not to wait any longer.

Although some of these thirty-odd people lost their lives here, there were still a dozen or so who did not want to go back.

As I said before, whether or not they go back is their own business. If anyone is going to have a headache, it's their sect or family. It's not his place to worry about that.

Before setting off, Yu Jinchen asked these people again if they wanted to come back.

"You've been here for fifty years, you must have heard of the Cloud View Mountain Secret Realm, right?"

Upon hearing Yu Jinchen's words, Lei Zhensheng was the first to ask, "Yunjing Mountain Secret Realm? Of course I've heard of it. It's a place that most cultivators want to go to, but unfortunately, you need a token to enter."

"I've also heard about the Cloud View Mountain Secret Realm. According to those who have been inside, it's filled with countless spiritual herbs and various spiritual minerals. It's just a pity that the tokens are all in the hands of those sects and aristocratic families."

"Yes, I've heard about it too. A rogue cultivator I know said that he once offered a thousand high-grade spirit stones to try and get a spot, but he still failed."

Upon hearing about the secret realm of Yunjing Mountain, these people shared what they knew, and each of them wore an expression of deep longing.

Only Lei Zhensheng's brother-in-law, Meng Rufeng, suddenly realized, "Senior Yu, why are you suddenly bringing this up? Could it be that you have a way to get in?"

As soon as he said this, everyone looked at Yu Jinchen.

"Yes, I have tokens. Besides the ones I use myself, I should be able to free up five more spots."

However, the tokens are hard to come by, and I do have some requirements. In addition to requiring that those who enter must have at least the Nascent Soul stage, each spot will cost one thousand high-grade spirit stones.

Why don't you all think it over carefully? There's still almost forty years left, no need to rush.

Although his family had three tokens, besides the ten slots promised to the Xu family guards and disciples, he, his wife, their four children, and Xu Qing and his siblings had twelve slots left.

After giving them five, the couple discussed the remaining six and decided to give them to the Qingxuan Sect.

As for the last one, he planned to leave it alone for the Cloud Mist Sect, where Lei Zhensheng was located.

My family has always maintained a good relationship with the Qingxuan Sect, and we are both located in the Luotian Mountains. With this favor, if my family needs any help in the future, we can ask them for help.

As for Blue Star, the five slots are just right. The three major sects and the Heavenly Mystery Sect each have one, but the remaining slot will most likely be taken by a special department.

This distribution is just right, and it's not easy to offend anyone. Although we're not afraid of offending these people, it's always better to avoid offending them if possible.

As for the extra one given by the Cloud Mist Sect, everyone knew that their family had always been on good terms with the Cloud Mist Sect, so no one could say anything about it.

When it was time to bring the second group of people back to Lingchuan Realm, Yu Jinchen discovered that among the people from the three sects and one special department, there was one person whose cultivation had reached the Nascent Soul stage, which was probably a preparation for entering the Cloud View Mountain Secret Realm in advance.

The special department sent not only a young Nascent Soul cultivator, but also their minister, Meng Yuanzhou.

Fifty years have passed, and Meng Yuanzhou's cultivation has now reached the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm. Although he has not yet reached the minimum requirement of the early stage of the Out-of-Body realm, he has managed to secure a spot here, which suggests that he plans to work harder to improve his cultivation in the Lingchuan realm.

There are still forty years left; with a little effort, it should be achievable.

Moreover, his spiritual root was not bad to begin with. The reason why he has only reached the Nascent Soul stage after so many years is probably because the spiritual energy on Blue Star is relatively thin, and he has been too busy with official business to have much time to cultivate.

Yu Jinchen thought that even if Meng Yuanzhou had not yet advanced to the Nascent Soul stage by then, he might as well relax his requirements for him a little.

Although he couldn't dedicate most of his life to national affairs like Meng Yuanzhou and others, it didn't diminish his admiration for them.

The people from the Cloud Mist Sect who came this time shocked Yu Jinchen even more. In addition to Lei Zhensheng and his wife, whom he expected, even the Old Ancestor Lei Ling was among them.

Fifty years have passed, and the Thunder Spirit Ancestor's cultivation level is still in the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm. He also wants to take this opportunity to go to the Spirit River Realm to improve his cultivation.

Keep in mind that only fifty years have passed, and Lei Zhensheng, who was only at the Nascent Soul stage back then, has already reached the early stage of the Out-of-Body stage. This shows that the spiritual energy of the Lingchuan Continent is indeed better than that of Blue Star.

Although he was able to extend his life by a hundred years thanks to the Heavenly Origin Fruit given to him by Xu Qingman and her husband, he also broke through to the Nascent Soul stage, increasing his remaining lifespan from several decades to more than four hundred years.

But what about four hundred years from now? If they still can't break through by then, and Lei Zhensheng and his son haven't grown to the point where they can support the Cloud Mist Sect, then things will be dire.

Although the Cloud Mist Sect has always been one of the three major sects, everyone knows that the Cloud Mist Sect is far inferior to the other three.

Those three families all have at least one Nascent Soul stage ancestor, while the Cloud Mist Sect's highest cultivation level is only his Nascent Soul stage cultivation. If they don't work harder, the Cloud Mist Sect will have no place in the cultivation world in the future.

Just like last time, most of these hundred people stayed near Dragon Hidden City. After all, the area is backed by the Dragon Hidden Mountain Range, and as long as one is bold and careful enough, there is no shortage of cultivation resources.

Of course, there were also a dozen or so people with decent wealth who followed Lei Zhensheng to Sifang City to develop their careers.

Among them were people from the three major sects and the Heavenly Mystery Sect, as well as Meng Yuanzhou from a special department.

After saying their goodbyes, Yu Jinchen and his two children hurried home. They had been separated for almost a year and were all homesick.

Before even seeing anyone upon entering, Xu Shuyin called out loudly, "Mom, we're back!"

"Shuyin's back? Where are your dad and brother?"

Seeing that only her maternal grandfather was there, Xu Shuyin asked with slight disappointment, "He's in the back, Grandpa. Why are you here all alone? Where's my mother?"

Seeing that this girl was already in her seventies or eighties, yet she still looked for her mother as soon as she entered the door, Xu Jingheng chuckled and replied, "Your mother is drawing talismans in her room; she should be out soon."

"Okay, I'll wait here for a bit."

Just as they sat down, Yu Jinchen and Xu Shuyi returned. After greeting Xu Jingheng, Xu Shuyi began to complain about her younger sister.

"Xu Shuyin, why are you running so fast? You didn't even wait for me and Dad."

"It's none of your business. Can't I miss my mother?"

"Okay, okay, why not? You're such a grown-up, yet you still can't live without your mother."

"Xu Shuyi, what are you talking about? How old am I? Look at my face, everyone will say I'm only seventeen or eighteen."

Yu Jinchen was too lazy to care about the brother and sister. Anyway, they would be fine after arguing for a while, and he didn't need the elders to judge the matter.

Instead, she asked Xu Jingheng, "Dad, what about Manman?"

Xu Jingheng said speechlessly, "The talisman is being drawn; it should be ready soon."

He could tell that this family couldn't do without her daughter; everyone, young and old, would look for her first when they got home.

Sure enough, Xu Qingman came out not long after.

Seeing that the couple only had eyes for each other, Xu Jingheng and the other two stopped being third wheels and left after exchanging a few casual words with her.

Xu Qingman: "Jinchen, did things go smoothly for you this time?"

Yu Jinchen: "It's alright, but Ding Changchun came this time too."

"what?"

Seeing that Xu Qingman seemed very surprised, Yu Jinchen added, "I mean, my biological father, Ding Changchun, is here too."
