The Path of Survivor begins with obtaining titles

Chapter 571: Chapter 293: Rosy Clouds of the Sun Moon Divine Sect_2
He had far surpassed the instruction of other disciples when it came to his direct disciple, Xu Yu Rou. With over seventy more years to continue this process, even if one were to achieve the Golden Core with lower-grade spiritual roots, there would still be no problem.

Upon hearing Lin Yi’s words, Xu Yu Rou couldn’t help but bow her fist, “Master, I will retreat and close up after this Secret Realm ends.”

“Good, in the next few years, I will not be closed up, if you have any doubts in your cultivation, you can come to me.” Lin Yi agreed. Although he had no skills in combat and only relied on strength, his comprehension in cultivation could still make him a competent master.

Though some breakthroughs were made with the help of the Minor Blessing State, those effects all turned into additional insights for him.

“Yes, master. Your disciple will take leave now.” Xu Yu Rou bid farewell and left the Yun Yi Palace with a bow.

Then, Lin Yi left the palace and arrived at the plaza of the Yun Yi peak. The disciples who were cultivating or sparring at the top of the mountain, upon seeing him, immediately bowed to him, “Greetings, Ancestor.”

He nodded slightly, and just as he was about to continue with his inspection, he suddenly heard the summons from Master Golden Sword. “Lin Yi, come to my cave mansion.”

Lin Yi smiled. It seemed that his master had waited for him to come out of closed-door cultivation before summoning him.

So, he rode his sword towards the Golden Sword Ancestor Peak. After becoming the Nascent Soul True Monarch, Master Golden Sword moved to a mountain near Liu Yun Peak. The concentration of spiritual energy there even surpassed that of the Liu Yun Main Peak.

This was a place especially prepared for cultivating for the True Monarchs of the Nascent Soul stage. After moving in, the mountain would be renamed, using their Taoist name plus the character for ‘Ancestor’, such as the peak where True Lord Xuan Qing resided which is called the Xuan Qing Ancestor Peak.

However, this Golden Core Real Person had closed himself up to focus on his cultivation, hoping to recover his Nascent Soul stage as soon as possible.

The result seen through his Eye of Emptiness indicated that it would not be difficult to recover his Nascent Soul stage, but there was no longer any chance to reach the late Nascent Soul stage, let alone a chance for the Divinity Transformation.

The injury to the Nascent Soul was not something that could be healed by ordinary pills. Even in the Dan God Secret Realm, there are only pills that could alleviate the injury but not heal it.

On his way to Golden Sword Ancestor Peak, Lin Yi saw Zhou Yun Feng, Qi Jing Yu, and Li Yuan Qing. He had summoned these Golden Core disciples just after he left closed-door cultivation.

He had a hunch that this summoning was likely related to himself and these three seniors were probably only a cover.

This possibility was the only one.

“Senior brothers and sister,” Lin Yi greeted them with a calm face.

Li Yuan Qing shook his head, “Brother Lin, now you are my senior brother. Don’t get it wrong.”

As the saying goes, those who achieve first are the seniors – Lin Yi achieved the Golden Core a few decades earlier than him, so he is unquestionably the senior.

“Not a big deal, it’s just a title. We are brothers among ourselves, there’s no need to worry about it,” Lin Yi waved and said.

“The junior brother is right, we’re all in the same sect. There’s no need to be so particular. Didn’t you also call him senior when you were in the outer sect, yet he didn’t care.” Zhou Yun Feng nodded and agreed.

“Hahaha, indeed, speaking of that, I must thank Senior Brother Li for the monster beast meat, which helped me get through the early stages of cultivation.” Lin Yi laughed out loud. Although his Body Refinement by Martial Arts was soon replaced by the Technique of Transforming Cloud into Wind, it still improved his physical strength somewhat.

“If I had known you would become my Uncle Master in the future, I would have given you a bigger discount,” Li Yuan Qing joked.

Ever since the previous guidance from Lin Yi, he had successfully broken through to the Golden Core. He no longer tried to change his character or that sharp imposing aura, but gradually became able to control it, almost at will.

Amidst their jokes, they arrived at the Golden Sword Ancestor Peak next to Liu Yun Peak and met their master who had already become the Nascent Soul True Monarch.

Indeed, just as Lin Yi had anticipated, this summon was just to give them some simple instructions. After letting Zhou Yun Feng and the rest leave early, he was the only one left behind.

“Master, I presume there is something important since you summoned me here,” said Lin Yi with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Gold Sword True Monarch knew Lin Yi had guessed correctly. He smiled and said, “I knew I couldn’t keep it from you.”

Instead of activating the mountain’s formation, he simply hid himself with a Nascent Soul aura. Then, he continued, “Recently, a Foundation Establishment elder secretly examined the records of the Creation Method transmission in the Scripture Grand Hall.”

“But, I’ve already deleted all the records of your Creation Method. He naturally wouldn’t be able to find it. Also, the Foundation Establishment elders who transmitted the ability to you have mostly perished by reaching the end of their lifespan, making it unlikely to be exposed. That’s the reason I summoned you, just to give you a heads up.”

“Thank you, Master. There’s no need to worry. He’s probably just casting his line for fishing,” Lin Yi quickly understood the key issue.

Perhaps before this, organizations against the Creation Method had already investigated. With no results, they had resorted to this blatant fishing.

If anything strange happened to this Foundation Establishment elder, it could be basically confirmed that the person who killed the Master of Bi Hai was indeed within the Liu Yun Sect.

“You sure are a cautious lad. I was thinking the same. All is well then, you may leave,” said Gold Sword True Monarch, chuckling slightly before dismissing Lin Yi with a wave of his hand.

“Thank you, Master. I take my leave.” Lin Yi bowed respectfully before leaving the hall.

Watching Lin Yi’s receding figure, Gold Sword True Monarch shook his head and laughed to himself. While he was curious about what was unusual about the Creation Method, he did not pry into the details. All that mattered to him was that Lin Yi was his disciple.

Stepping out of the main hall, Lin Yi found Zhou Yun Feng and the others waiting for him outside. He left with them, each returning to their own mountains.

Back at the Yun Yi Peak Cave House, Lin Yi didn’t dwell on the matter or attempt to tail the Foundation Establishment elder to find out who was behind it. There was no meaning in doing so, killing one wave would just bring another.

He had already decided that when he reached five hundred years old and presumably attained the Deification Realm, he would simply feign death in a dangerous location and escape. He could then specifically appear as Invincible East.

If he attained the Nascent Soul True Monarch within the Liu Yun Sect, that would be too conspicuous. And, if he wanted to ascend, it would be quite troublesome as a Nascent Soul True Monarch.

In the ensuing period, Lin Yi began shuttling back and forth between the Liu Yun Sect and the Sun Moon Divine Sect, cultivating and lecturing his disciples at the same time.

As for the spirit beasts in the Secret Realm, he didn’t instruct them too much. Having the Golden Core Spirit Beasts was already enough. He only fed them and looked for opportunities to awaken the bloodlines of the outstanding spirit beast disciples.

Six years later, a ray of rosy clouds appeared above a mountain peak within the boundary of the Sun Moon Divine Sect. Lin Yi naturally knew that the Secret Realm was choosing its opening location, but he did not interfere. Instead, he returned to the Sun Moon Divine Sect to see which Sect would be chosen this time.

After sensing this rosy cloud, a hint of surprise showed on his face. He didn’t expect the location to be within the Sun Moon Divine Sect, which meant that they would have ten places without the need for any contention.

Last time, the Realm had opened in a Righteous Sect. The Sun Moon Divine Sect had also participated in the battle and secured the third place. The first and the second places were taken by Liu Yun Sect and the Sky Sword Sect, respectively.

Lin Yi didn’t care about that because the Sun Moon Divine Sect had already acquired the resources of the Canghua Sect and the Xuan Yin Sect. Furthermore, they had very few disciples, which was more than sufficient.

The rosy cloud was descended from the sky; hence even the cultivators from afar could see it. Concealing it was impossible.

Soon, all the major sects received the news, and all the Golden Core Real Persons were somewhat nervous because this time, the Secret Realm opened within the Sun Moon Divine Sect.

Although the Eastern Sect Master seemed positive, they still felt immense pressure, uncertain if the Eastern Sect Master would monopolize all the places in the Secret Realm this time.
