Courtyard House: The Cultivation System Takes Me Flying

As the first rays of dawn spread across the sky above Eternal Homeland, the entire Supreme Grotto-heaven ushered in its most perfect moment.

Today marks the ultimate end of Qin Lindong's protection of his home, the final moment when the Eternal Immortal Abode truly reaches eternal peace and eternal return to its true nature. The Jade Steps, the Chaos Spring, the Four Seasons Garden, the Tranquil Lotus Platform, the Immortal Abode, the Starry Night Playground, the Bamboo Study, and the Abode of All Spirits—all the gentleness and tranquility converge at this moment into the ultimate Eternal Path.

Qin Lindong remained seated cross-legged on the central stone platform, his body devoid of any golden light or Daoist rhymes, only exuding a simple and genuine peace. At the peak of the ninth level of the Golden Core realm, with all Daoist principles returning to his heart, his primordial Daoist lineage boundless and eternal, all his power and realm had been integrated into every blade of grass, every tree, every person, and every spirit of this home, becoming indivisible.

He slowly opened his eyes. His eyes did not reflect the brilliance of the Milky Way, nor the roar of the Great Road, but rather the tranquility of his entire homeland—the smiling faces of children, the peace of his family, the gentleness of all living beings, and the ultimate form of the eternal Chang'an.

[Ding! The host has successfully completed 100 chapters of protecting the homeland, and the Eternal Homeland has reached its ultimate state—Eternal Chang'an, Eternal Return to Truth!]

[The ultimate rule has arrived: As long as Heaven and Earth exist, the Immortal Abode exists; even if the Great Dao perishes, the homeland will never perish!]

[Ultimate Ascension of All Members' Dao Bodies: True Eternal Immortal Body, without birth or death, without defilement or purity, living as long as time itself, and existing alongside their home!]

[All Spirits Return to Truth: All spiritual beings have awakened their intelligence, can speak human language, understand human hearts, and will live in eternal harmony with all members of the community, never to be separated!]

[Time Rule Locked: Time within your home is set at your discretion, it can be fast or slow, paused or resumed, always maintaining the most stable state!]

[Ultimate Reward for Host: Upon returning to the Great Dao, I am at peace, I am eternal. No power is needed, no supernatural abilities are required; a single thought brings eternal peace!]

The system's final notification tone fell silent, without vibration, bright light, or any earth-shattering phenomena.

Only the entire home, in silence, completed its final eternal return to its true nature.

The soft light on the jade steps grew ever warmer, never dimming or fading.

The water of the Chaos Spirit Spring grows ever clearer and never dries up;

The flowers in the Four Seasons Garden are ever more beautiful, never blooming or fading;

The lotus fragrance of the tranquil lotus platform becomes increasingly refreshing, never fading or dissipating;

The warmth of the fairy abode grows ever stronger, never too cold or too warm;

The radiance of the Star Spirit Play grows ever gentler, forever undamaged and indestructible;

The literary atmosphere of Lingzhu Study has become increasingly refined and elegant, forever pure and untainted.

The creatures that dwell in the land of all spirits become increasingly docile, never fierce or agitated.

At this moment, everyone in the hospital felt the power of ultimate eternity.

There was no pain, no transformation, no awakening, only an ultimate sense of peace in my heart—knowing that I will never grow old, never be separated, never be hurt, and never lose this home.

Banggeng, Xiaodang, and Huaihua, holding the spirit rabbit and leading the spirit deer, stood in the center of the long jade steps, their small faces radiating the purest happiness. They were now true eternal immortal bodies, possessing immortal life at such a young age, yet they were still just children who longed to play with their friends, be with their families, and be with all living beings every day.

"My Lord! Look! The spirit rabbit can talk to us!" Xiao Dang exclaimed in surprise. The spirit rabbit in his arms nodded gently and let out a soft whimper. It had fully awakened its intelligence, understood human nature and speech, and became a true companion to the children. Spirit deer, spirit sparrow, spirit mouse, spirit rhinoceros, spirit butterfly—all the myriad spirits awakened their intelligence at this moment, communicating with everyone's hearts and minds, and living in harmony.

The locust flower smiled and spoke with the spirit sparrow, which responded with a clear chirp; the stag and the spirit deer stood side by side, their hearts in perfect harmony, needing no words to understand each other's feelings. All spirits and humans had truly achieved a state of unity and eternal peace.

Qin Huairu walked to the children's side, reached out, and gently stroked each of the spirit creatures, her tenderness seemingly overflowing. Now that she had achieved the Great Perfection of the True Eternal Immortal Body and the Perfection of the Mid-Stage Golden Core cultivation, and that the Water Spirit Path and the Great Path of Home were completely unified, she no longer needed to worry about any storms or hardships. She only needed to protect her children and her home, and that would be her eternal happiness.

"It's so good, everything is so good." Qin Huairu murmured softly, her voice full of contentment. In her ordinary life, she never dared to imagine that she could have such a life, without poverty, without bullying, without separation, only eternal warmth and peace.

He Yuzhu stood at the entrance of the Spirit Cuisine Room, looking at the harmonious scene before him, and laughed heartily. He had reached the perfect late-stage Golden Core realm, was protected by the True Eternal Immortal Body, and had reached the pinnacle of the Spirit Cuisine Dao. In the years to come, he could forever cook spiritual meals for his family, forever watch everyone eat happily, and forever be the warmest spiritual chef in this home.

"Immortal Lord! This home of ours is truly the eternal peace!" He Yuzhu exclaimed, his voice filled with pride and gratitude. In his entire life, from a mortal cook to an eternal spirit chef, from struggling to survive to eternal peace, everything he had was given to him by this home.

Yan Bugui and Liu Haizhong stood beside the Lotus Platform of Tranquility. The two old men had reached the initial stage of Golden Core perfection, possessing the true eternal immortal bodies. Their hair and beards were jet black, and their appearances remained forever young, showing no signs of aging. They looked at each other and smiled. The scheming and obsessions of their mortal lives vanished completely before the ultimate eternity.

"So this is what Chang'an, the ancient capital, looks like," Yan Bugui said softly. "No strife, no fighting, no worries, family members always together, and all things in harmony."

Liu Haizhong nodded: "This is the true path to enlightenment, this is the meaning of eternity."

The four members of the Jia family stood at the entrance of the Immortal Abode, their faces adorned with the most serene smiles. The True Eternal Immortal Body had allowed them to completely bid farewell to the hardships and darkness of the mortal world, leaving only peace, contentment, and gratitude. Jia Geng and Bang Geng stood side by side, surrounded by all the spirits. The barriers of the past had long since transformed into the harmony of blood relatives. The family stood quietly, and that alone was eternity.

Madam Jia gently stroked the spirit rabbit beside her, her eyes filled with tenderness: "To be able to live here, to be able to live in such peace forever, is the best life."

All spirits surrounded everyone; the celestial rhinoceros murmured, the celestial bird sang, the celestial rabbit nestled close, the celestial deer guarded, the celestial mouse accompanied, and the celestial butterfly danced. All things have spirits, all things are in harmony, and all things are eternal.

Qin Lindong slowly stood up, walked down from the central stone platform, and stepped onto the long jade staircase.

He didn't unleash any power or display any divine might; he simply walked among his family in the most ordinary and peaceful manner.

At this moment, he is not a supreme being at the ninth level of the Golden Core stage, not the creator of the eternal Chang'an, and not the controller of the Great Dao Returning to Truth.

He is just a part of this community, a family member who protects everyone until eternity.

"From this day forward, Chang'an will forever return to its true nature."

Qin Lindong's voice was calm and gentle, without any majesty or solemnity, only the tenderness of family: "Without beginning or end, without birth or death, without disturbance or surprise, without separation or scattering."

We will always be here.

Enjoying flowers every day, sleeping peacefully every night.

Together year after year, through generations.

There were no vows, no promises, no passionate pronouncements.

Only the simplest truths and the most enduring facts.

Everyone in the ward, along with all the spirits, bowed slightly, without kneeling or showing any deference, only offering a familial greeting.

They knew that from this moment on, no force could separate them, no years could disturb them, and nothing could take away their peace.

The world outside continues its cycle of rise and fall, suffering in conflict and struggling in a dog-eat-dog world.

Countless cultivators pursue immortality, power, and supreme status, yet they never understand that the ultimate goal of immortality is not solitary eternal life, but the companionship of family; the ultimate goal of power is not to sweep across the eight wastelands, but to protect peace and stability; and the ultimate goal of supreme status is not the worship of all immortals, but eternal peace and tranquility.

Qin Lindong, through a hundred chapters of time, with the utmost gentleness and protection, gave the most perfect answer.

At noon, He Yuzhu prepared the ultimate spiritual feast, and all spirits and humans sat together to share this grand banquet of immortality. The spiritual spring was clear and cool, the spiritual food was fragrant, the spiritual music was gentle, the fragrance of flowers filled the air, all the spirits sang softly, and family members laughed. All the most beautiful things gathered in this eternal home.

The children ate, laughed, and played with the spirits;

The adults sat quietly enjoying their meal, their eyes gentle.

The elderly savored their food slowly, enjoying the peaceful passage of time.

Qin Lindong sat in the middle, looking at everything before him, a faint yet extremely sincere smile appearing on his lips.

This is the ultimate destination he attained after exhausting all the great principles.

In the afternoon, time flowed slowly through the Eternal Garden.

Children and spirits frolic on the Starry Sky Playground, their laughter echoing in every corner;

Qin Huairu admired the flowers in the Four Seasons Spirit Garden, accompanied by spirit butterflies and spirit sparrows;

He Yuzhu was fishing by the Linghu Lake, where the fish swam freely and leisurely.

Yan Bugui and Liu Haizhong were reading in Lingzhu Study, their literary atmosphere refreshing their minds.

The four members of the Jia family sat quietly in the fairy-like cottage, surrounded by warmth;

All creatures fulfill their roles, depend on each other, and live in harmony forever.

Qin Lindong lay on the herb couch in the Immortal Abode, closing his eyes for a short rest.

The air is filled with the sounds of nature, the fragrance of flowers fills the air, the presence of family is nearby, and the gentle presence of all spirits accompanies you.

There is no great way, no power, no strife, no attachments.

Only stability, only eternity, only home.

As the sun sets and the stars rise, the light of our eternal home will never be extinguished.

The jade steps still glow softly, the chaotic spring still gushes forth, the flowers in the four seasons garden still bloom, the lotus fragrance on the tranquil lotus platform still lingers, the warmth of the immortal abode remains, the gentle dwelling of all spirits remains, and the peaceful companionship of all remains.

Chang'an throughout history is not just a place, but a period of time.

Eternal return to one's true nature is not a state of being, but a way of life.

Here, there is no killing, no vying for supremacy, no suffering, and no separation.

Here, there is only family, only all spirits, only warmth, only peace.

This is the home where Qin Lindong and his family will live forever.

This is the place we've finally arrived at after a hundred years of trials and tribulations—

Chang'an, eternally restored to its true nature.
