Chapter 162 Mortal Pilgrimage, Holy Land Endures

The primordial spiritual realm was unsealed, and the Dao Seal of Heaven and Earth was integrated into the eternal Chang'an homeland. All living beings across the three continents felt the eternal and peaceful aura emanating from the sacred land. After experiencing the demonic calamity and purification, the mortal beings, having rebuilt their homes and lived in peace and prosperity, felt even more grateful for the protection of the eternal Chang'an—if it weren't for this eternal pure land leveling the demonic abyss and purging evil spirits, they would have long since perished in the demons' jaws, never to have a peaceful day again.

In just a few months, the land of the three states regained its former vitality. Towns revived, villages sprang up, fertile fields stretched for miles, smoke curled from chimneys, and ordinary people lived in peace and contentment. Children laughed and played, and the elderly lived in leisure—a scene of prosperity and happiness. In the hearts of all the people, Chang'an was no longer a distant fairyland, but a sacred place that protected them, a guardian deity protecting heaven and earth.

On this day, people from all the towns and villages across the three states spontaneously gathered, preparing grains, fresh fruits, brocade, and fine wine, forming a grand pilgrimage procession that came from all directions towards their eternal homeland, Chang'an. Leading the procession were elders and sages from each of the three states, holding incense and candles, their hearts filled with reverence, prostrating themselves with each step as they made their way to the sacred site, a scene of solemnity and piety.

"Thanks to the eternal Chang'an sacred land for its protection, we are able to live and work in peace and contentment!"

"May this sacred place endure forever, and may its guardians enjoy eternal peace and prosperity!"

"Paying homage to the holy site, giving thanks for its protection!"

The voices of millions of people converged, resounding throughout heaven and earth. Their piety soared to the sky, transforming into pure faith that gently drifted towards their eternal homeland of Chang'an.

At this moment, Qin Lintian was enjoying tea with his family in the Qinghuan Pavilion. Wanling lay docilely by the pavilion, the zither playing softly and the wind chimes tinkling gently, creating a scene of tranquility and peace. Sensing the piety and respect of the common people, Qin Lintian smiled slightly, raised his hand, and a warm golden light enveloped the boundary of his home, absorbing all the power of the people's faith and transforming it into a protective force for his home.

"Ordinary people come to pay homage with gratitude in their hearts, and we should respond with goodwill."

"Tan Lintian said softly, and his family members nodded, their eyes full of tenderness," Qin Huairu said gently as she stood up and straightened her clothes. "The people are grateful. We should let them feel the goodwill of the Holy Land and not keep them at arm's length."

He Yuzhu laughed and said, "I'll go to the Spirit Food Pavilion right away to prepare spirit fruits and delicacies, so that the people who come to pay homage can also taste the flavors of our homeland!"

Jia Zhangshi, Jia Dongxu, Yan Bugui, and Liu Haizhong also stood up, ready to greet them with courtesy. The four children looked curiously toward the border, wanting to see what ordinary people looked like.

Qin Lintian raised his hand and gently waved it, causing a layer of soft light to slowly descend from the Worry-Free Spirit Barrier. This light would neither disturb the peace of their home nor obstruct the view of the idyllic scene within. At the same time, he transmitted his voice with the rhythm of the universe, his gentle voice reaching the ears of every resident: "Your peaceful and prosperous lives are the wish of heaven and earth and the blessing of your home. There is no need for further formalities; simply live your lives in peace."

Upon hearing this gentle yet supremely authoritative voice, the people prostrated themselves in even greater reverence, daring not to show the slightest negligence. The elder of the three prefectures stepped forward and respectfully said, "Guardians of the Holy Land, we are deeply blessed by the Holy Land and have no way to repay you. We offer this humble gift to express our heartfelt gratitude. We earnestly request the Holy Land to accept it, and wish for the Holy Land to endure forever, and for our families to be safe and well!"

As they spoke, the people neatly arranged the grains, fresh fruits, brocade, and fine wine they had brought, and kowtowed devoutly. The respect and gratitude of millions of people transformed into the purest power of their wishes, nourishing the very essence of Chang'an throughout the ages.

Seeing this, Qin Lintian no longer refused. With a wave of his hand, the morning dew spirit liquid and spirit fruit wine from his home slowly floated out and fell into the hands of the people. The spirit liquid was sweet and the spirit fruit was delicious. After drinking the spirit liquid and eating the spirit fruit, the people felt refreshed, all their illnesses disappeared, and they were full of energy. They were even more grateful to the holy land.

"Thank you for the blessings of the Holy Land!"

"May the holy land protect you, forever unforgettable!"

Looking at the simple and devout people before him, Qin Lintian said gently, "Heaven and earth give birth to people, and each should live in peace and enjoy their work. I protect our homeland and safeguard the peace of heaven and earth. You only need to have good intentions and live in peace and contentment, which is the best way to repay our homeland. In the years to come, evil will be forever destroyed, heaven and earth will be peaceful, and you can enjoy lasting peace."

As he finished speaking, he raised his hand and waved it lightly. A peaceful golden light shone down upon the three states, dispelling the hidden ailments and weariness of the common people. The fields became more fertile, the rivers clearer, and the fortunes of the mortal world increased several times over. This was a gift from the sacred land, the benevolence of the guardian, and the eternal protection of Chang'an for the mortal world.

The people cheered and kowtowed repeatedly before slowly retreating, their laughter and joy spreading the blessings and goodwill of the sacred land to every corner of the three states. From then on, the legend of Chang'an as a sacred place under heaven and earth, and its guardians as gods for all ages, was passed down through generations in the mortal world, enduring through the ages.

Within the homeland, the pilgrimage ceremony had come to an end, and tranquility returned. The aroma of the spiritual dishes prepared by He Yuzhu filled the air, and everyone sat around the Qinghuan Pavilion, sharing the food and chatting about the mundane pilgrimage, their hearts filled with gentle warmth.

"These people are simple and honest, and they are very grateful. They are truly rare," Yan Bugui said with a smile, stroking his beard.

Liu Haizhong nodded: "Yes, with all evil spirits vanquished, the world at peace, and ordinary people living in harmony and contentment, we can finally enjoy a peaceful and happy life."

Looking at the spiritual fruit in her hand, Madam Jia Zhang smiled and said, "Lin Tian can protect all mortals with a wave of his hand. It's truly remarkable. We are very fortunate to follow Lin Tian."

Qin Huairu smiled gently: "Having good intentions and protecting all living beings is Lin Tian's true nature, and it is also the true nature of our home."

The children ate with relish, chattering about the lives of ordinary people, their innocent laughter echoing throughout the garden.

All spirits, inspired by the power of mortal faith, became increasingly gentle and peaceful. The white jade rhinoceros raised its head and sang softly, a herd of spirit deer strolled along the banks of the spirit stream, spirit birds flew, spirit herbs grew, and the vitality and harmony of their home grew ever stronger.

Qin Lintian sat quietly in the pavilion, sipping his spiritual tea, looking at everything before him, his heart filled with relief. He created the eternal Chang'an to protect his family, but unknowingly, he also blessed the entire world, creating a sacred land where mortals could enjoy eternal peace.

Protecting our families is also ensuring peace for the world.

Family members stay together, and so do all living beings.

This is the significance of Chang'an throughout the ages.

This is the original intention of the Eternal Guardians.

In the mortal world, generations pay homage; in the sacred land, legends are passed down through the ages.

May our eternal home be peaceful every day, filled with the joy of family and happiness year after year.

The carefree spiritual barrier remains warm and gentle, the sea of ​​eternal lamps still shines brightly, the primordial spiritual realm still flows with spiritual energy, and the Dao seal of coexistence with heaven and earth still firmly establishes our home. In the years to come, no matter how the mortal world changes, no matter how heaven and earth turn, Chang'an will forever stand between heaven and earth, eternally undying, forever peaceful.

There is no strife, no evil, no suffering, no separation;

Only warmth, only peace, only gratitude, only eternity.

Qin Lintian remained dressed in white, his gaze gentle as he looked towards the distant, prosperous world, then back at his loved ones. His heart was now undisturbed, filled only with eternal peace and happiness.

While mortals pay homage, the sacred site endures.

One day of imperial favor brings one day of peace; its fame will be celebrated for generations to come.

May our homeland be forever safe and our loved ones by our side; may heaven and earth unite us and may our years be long and prosperous.
