The Path of Survivor begins with obtaining titles

When Lin Yi returned to the Golden Sword Peak Cave Mansion, he gauged the spiritual energy within and shook out his head. The level of spiritual energy here could not fulfill the cultivation needs of the Golden Core Realm anymore.

However, he never really used this cultivation cave mansion properly. He had been primarily boosting his cultivation levels by snatching up others’ benefits.

Upon advancing to the Golden Core stage, he would naturally continue to squeeze benefits from his Pill Immortal Master. Still, Lin Yi also needed to practice his cultivation within the Dan God’s Cave Mansion to comprehend the Five Element Spiritual Energy.

No insights could be gleaned from cultivation levels obtained by benefit-snatching, a fact he had previously confirmed.

When he practiced cultivation using the Creation Method, he could gain insights into the mysteries of the Creation Method to some degree. However, the cultivation levels acquired from snatching benefits only increased his strength level but were unable to bring insights.

If he hadn’t held the title “Grain Wisdom from One’s Mistakes,” it would be exceptionally difficult for him to evolve to the Creation Method’s tenth level in the case of benefit-snatching.

Nevertheless, with the title “Grain Wisdom from One’s Mistakes,” he would continue to gain insights into the Creation Method, which would compensate for the inadequacies of benefit-snatching.

After leaving the cultivation cave mansion, Lin Yi found several communication talismans, some lying on the ground and others drifting in the air.

Communication talismans themselves store spiritual power. They float around when blocked outside. If their spiritual power is about to be exhausted, they will fall to the ground. If a cultivator injects spiritual power into it again, they can stimulate the voice stored inside.

He triggered these several communication talismans. Most of them were not critical. The most recent one was sent by his Senior Brother Zhou Yun Feng.

The message inside said that more than seventeen years had passed since the last opening of the Dan God Secret Realm. Some elders from the sect believed that it would undoubtedly open once again in the next two years.

So, gaining this information, they prepared to commence teaching excellent disciples from the sect to secure precious spiritual grass inside the Dan God Secret Realm consistently for the Liu Yun Sect.

However, Zhou Yun Feng added that this was only a transmission sent at the Sect Master’s request, on his own. He should not mind it and could close up and break through with peace of mind.

The sect wouldn’t interrupt a direct disciple’s seclusion for such a small matter.

Hearing the content of this Sound Transmission Talisman, Lin Yi slightly smiled. The higher-ups of the Liu Yun Sect really regarded the Dan God Secret Realm as a stable source of precious spirit grass.

The spirit grass he provided before was just a preemptive move to justify the preparations for the Supreme-grade Resurrection Pill for his senior brother, Zhou Yun Feng.

Naturally, even after resolving the Resurrection pill matter, he would continue to provide precious spirit grass to avoid arousing suspicion.

However, if he were to give, he would mainly consider the Golden Sword Peak. The other peaks, including the various sects, were only used as foil.

As for offering guidance to disciples of various peaks, Lin Yi would do it too. Apart from gaining merit points, it was more important to validate the existence of the title ‘teacher.’

Over the years, he had been working hard to break through to the Golden Core and didn’t have time to give lectures and instruct others. Now that he has achieved the Golden Core, it’s time to see if the title ‘teacher’ indeed exists.

Afterwards, Lin Yi stepped out of the courtyard and looked at the medicine field full of weeds, shaking his head. He had been in seclusion for so many years that these weeds had grown several times over.

After all, these weeds can’t grow for many years without wilting like spirit grass, even if the spiritual energy of the top-grade medicine field is very abundant. These weeds also have the life limit of a plant.

He gently waved his hand, and a burst of powerful Wood Element Spiritual Power surged into these spirit herbs. Nourished by this spiritual power, the weeds grew wildly and then quickly withered, turning into fertilizer and falling into the medicine field.

Seeing this, a smile appeared on Lin Yi’s face. The Seven Attributes Golden Core is indeed powerful; he can use any of the elements at will.

In theory, he could instantly learn seven types of elemental spells, performing strongly even at the beginner level.

Lin Yi felt that with his current wind and thunder ability, if he were to apply both wind and thunder swordsmanship, it would probably be even more potent than his master Golden Sword Zen Ren.

After all, what he possesses is a Creation Golden Pill refined, which can exert powerful capability comparable to the early Nascent Soul Realm.

In other words, if he can reach the Nascent Soul Realm, he will be invincible in the Heng Yuan World, of course assuming no one from the Upper Realm comes down.

Although there is no definite record in the books about whether cultivators from the Upper Realm can come to the Heng Yuan World, he has gotten the answer from Pill Immortal Master.

Cultivators from the Upper Realm can indeed come to the Heng Yuan World, but they need to pay a hefty price, and their cultivation level would be strictly limited to the Nascent Soul Realm.

Generally, unless significant events that might affect the Upper Realm occur in the Heng Yuan World, cultivators from the Upper Realm wouldn’t be willing to pay such a high price just to come down for a stroll.

Just like how cultivators in the Heng Yuan World can go to the mortal world without paying any price, and are treated like gods. Still, not many cultivators are willing to live among mortals.

After cleaning up the weeds, Lin Yi planted high-order spiritual herbs. His alchemy skills have already improved to the Spirit Level; refining high-level pills doesn’t give him any experience points anymore.

Now, he’s only planting for appearance’s sake. His primary focus would still be refining Spirit Level Elixirs so that he can refine the Infant Breaking Pill sooner and elevate his Alchemy title to the fourth stage.
