Lin Yu and his two companions wasted no time in setting off on their journey back to the Tenglong Continent. After a grueling trek, they finally returned to this land that was both familiar and strange to them. Lin Yu gazed at the mountains and rivers he had once known so well, a wave of profound emotion washing over him. Yet, he had no time to lose himself in memories; the mission to save his mother weighed upon his heart like a massive boulder.
They headed straight for the Danzong Sect. The sect's mountain gates stood lofty, imposing, and solemn. The disciples guarding the gates caught sight of Lin Yu and his group, a flicker of vigilance crossing their eyes. After all, Lin Yu had left the Danzong Sect long ago, and his current strength had grown immensely, exuding an aura that commanded awe and reverence. Lin Yu stated his purpose, explaining that he was a former member of the sect and had returned to trade for alchemy materials in order to elevate his alchemy skills.
The gate-guarding disciples dared not make a decision on their own and hurriedly went to report. Before long, a white-haired yet robust old man strode out quickly. This man was one of the elders of the Danzong Sect, who had once greatly appreciated Lin Yu's talent in alchemy. "Lin Yu, it has been many years, and you have actually grown to this extent." The elder's eyes were filled with gratification.
