"Since everything is alright and ready to go, we can begin to head out."
The group of four headed out restarting their journey with a hope in their chests for the future.
A month later Yoze and the gang began to see the massive mountain range that looked like massive swords aimed towards the sky.
"The Grand Line. " Drew looked up at the massive mountain range with shock and admiration in his heart.
It was always his greatest dream to travel the world and see the wonders of the beautiful world. Visiting a Grand Line was one of his most important dreams and he was now experiencing it with his son.
Yoze felt amazed looking at the stunning mountains. It was one thing to read these natural structures but another to experience them with your eyes.
"The Charred Sword Mountain Range, we need to cross a passage through it before we can truly begin our journey to New Swampscott City." Jewel explained as she looked at Yoze with surprise as she felt that this man was an abnormality.
Throughout the entire trip, he hadn't once stepped into the carriage to rest and only walked the entire way. Even as he was injured he had steady steps and kept up the carriage.
Jewel also sensed that for some reason he gave her a feeling of being pressured. As if she was looking at an indestructible mountain. She also felt that the pressure was getting stronger every day and felt nervous whenever she had to talk to him.
Luckily, for her it seemed to her that Yoze wasn't much of a talker and merely liked to hang out with his pet goat.
"Do you know why there seems to be a Grand Line surrounding every city?" Yoze asked Jewel.
When Yoze had been preparing for this trip he bought several maps to view all the major cities and towns that they would be passing through and noticed something interesting. Every large city had a massive natural border that separated it from the other large cities.
Take Jade City for example, it was the largest city in the Jade Mountain region and the north and west side of the region was surrounded by the Charred Sword Mountain Range.
To get from Jade City to the closest large city, New Swampscott City, one needed to pass through this Grand Line. If instead one wanted to travel to Lost Lake City, they would be separated by the Grand Line called the Jade Ravine, the main mining area for Jade City and how it got its name.
New Swampscott City was the same, it didn't just have Charred Sword Mountain Range that bordered its south, to its north was Devils Range, to its east was Swamp Sea, and its west was Immortal Cliff.
Whichever direction one went they would encounter a grand line separating cities apart. Yoze found that these natural structures seemed too frequent in their placement as if they were created to separate these cities.
"No one knows when the Grand Lines first appeared but there are rumors that said everything Grand Line was created by the battles of Immortals and Demons."
"Take the Charred Sword Mountain Range, the story goes that the Sword Immortal fought a fire demon to the death. Their fight destroyed the land and created these mountains."
"But in my opinion I think that is just nonsense that people created to pass the time." Jewel explained showing her disdain towards the stories.
"That's interesting, maybe those stories have some grain of truth in them. In this crazy world almost anything is possible." After experiencing the events with Emerald Town, Yoze became more interested in these so-called fairy tales. Since he had gone through one quite recently himself.
Jewel shrugged her shoulders and didn't argue with Yoze and turned her focus on controlling the carriage. The road that they were traveling was becoming rougher as they began to leave the confines of human civilization.
The passage through the Charred Sword Mountain Range was between two mountains that were filled with wild beasts and rumors also said that this was the home of some demons. Due to how dangerous the area surrounding the Mountain Range was there was no town or village close to it and therefore there weren't any nice roads.
"We are coming up to the passage, make sure to keep your goat close to you so the wild animals don't sink their teeth into its flesh."
Hearing Jewel's warning, Leah shivered and walked closer to Yoze's side for his protection. But Yoze wasn't very interested in these wild animals since they weren't much of a threat to him. He was more interested and concerned if they met a demon.
It was said that demons were just as strong as Immortals and even the weakest demon could destroy a city. He had no confidence that he could survive an encounter with a demon but wanted to meet one so he could copy its talents.
Suddenly Yoze felt a rumble coming from his stomach and asked the group to temporarily stop for a lunch break. Walking towards the wagon that they had been carrying during their trip, Yoze took a few pieces of large dried meat and dried vegetables before walking away from the carriage.
"I'm finally going to break through." Yoze's eyes sparkled as he could feel his inner Vigor in turmoil.
He had been stuck at the brink of reaching level 4 of the Big Golem Cultivation method for several days. He had been eating a large amount of food and pressuring his body using Mindless Blood Legs for the past month.
Now that he could feel how much Inner Vigor was in his body he felt as if could crush the ground beneath him.
"The fourth level is said to allow me to send my Inner Vigor to individual parts of my body. This means that instead of having my weight distributed evenly I can make one of my body parts weigh even more than it would normally."
Yoze allowed his inner Vigor to crash around in his body until it slowly settled with a new level of vibrance. He could feel that he had a stronger connection to inner Vigor and could send it anywhere he wanted.
