The Path of Survivor begins with obtaining titles

After understanding his high enlightenment towards swordsmanship through the previous Wind Thunder Sword Technique, he decided to pass it on.

Lin Yi naturally understood that Master Golden Sword did not pass this sword technique to him because of his enlightenment. Instead, he was worried that Lin Yi, who was about to accomplish Perfect Foundation Building and had a minimal chance of forming his Golden Core, would face some mishaps from idleness in the next hundred years. Therefore, he passed this sword technique to him so that he could research it further in his spare time.

The golden element is the hardest one to comprehend among the five elements. Cultivators with a spiritual root dominated by gold are relatively rare compared to those with other elements. This makes it the ideal spiritual root for sword training.

Most of the disciples in the Sky Sword Sect, one of the Ten Major Sects, have spiritual roots dominated by gold, most of which are of lower- and medium-grade. However, high-grade and supreme-grade gold spiritual roots are exceedingly rare.

While it is difficult for others to comprehend the golden element, for Lin Yi, this sword technique seemed tailor-made for him. After all, the Golden Core within him has already fused with the golden element.

After accepting the divine sense transfer from Master Golden Sword, a pop-up appeared before Lin Yi’s eyes. The Golden Sword Technique has appeared on his title panel, although it is currently in an inactive state.

Upon reflection, Lin Yi understood that despite having the golden element within him, he needs to construct a golden sword within his body to truly begin the technique. This is the biggest hurdle. Once accomplished, it signifies the entrance into the Golden Sword, and he can then nourish and comprehend the golden element even more.

As he has just received the transfer of the sword technique and has not yet been able to construct the golden sword, it is naturally in an inactive state at present.

“Thank you, Master, for passing on the sword technique. I will try my best to comprehend it,” Lin Yi thanked his Master sincerely after accepting the transfer.

Gold Sword Zen Ren waved his hand gently, “You proceed with your comprehension. If you have any doubts, you can ask me anytime.”

Then he added solemnly, “In recent days, a serious evil spirit incident has occurred in an immortal city of the Canghua Sect, which is suspected to be the work of the Xuan Yin Sect. If possible, try not to leave Liu Yun Sect.”

“Yes, Master,” Lin Yi’s expression changed slightly as he responded. He had not heard about this incident yet. It must have just occurred and had not spread widely but already reached the higher echelons of the sect.

If a Golden Core Real Person could describe it as severe, it was probably similar to the evil spirit incident in Qing Yun City last time.

The Xuan Yin Sect really is evil. All they do is cause trouble and turn people into evil spirits, which is even worse than killing. Once turned into an evil spirit, they cannot be reborn and are controlled by them for life.

Lin Yi didn’t take this matter too seriously. Although the Xuan Yin Sect borders the Liu Yun Sect, they have not dared to provoke them since the last war.

Moreover, he would not casually leave the Liu Yun Sect. Even if he really encounters them, only then, the Xuan Yin Sect will be regarded as unlucky.

With his powerful strength in the late Golden Core stage and his understanding of thunder and lightning, even if the Nascent Soul True Monarch of the Xuan Yin Sect comes, he will have a great chance of winning.

After returning to the Golden Sword Peak Cave Mansion, Lin Yi did not immediately teleport into the secret realm. Instead, he contemplated in his mind on how to practice the Golden Sword Technique. Looking at the information about this sword technique, his admiration for Pill Immortal Master once again increased.

He also perceived his own shortcomings. Other people at the Golden Core Realm can already create such an extraordinary sword technique. However, he, who is currently in the late Golden Core Realm, is still dabbling.

The path of cultivation should not only be about training, but also about creating and comprehending one’s own divine skills. Otherwise, if you only have the realm but no divine skills suitable for yourself, it’s a kind of regret.

Lin Yi decided that after reaching the Nascent Soul Realm, he would set aside some time to try to comprehend and create the most suitable spell or swordsmanship divine skills for himself.

After spending some time in the Golden Sword Peak Cave Mansion, he teleported to the Dan God Secret Realm. This place was filled with rich gold elements, which was helpful in constructing the Golden Sword.

Upon arriving in the Secret Realm, he first went to the Spirit Beast Dojo. Over the span of more than thirty years, this dojo had been on the right track, and some scattered monsters in the secret realm also regarded it as a holy place, wanting to join and become disciples of the dojo.

Here, not only was there rich Spiritual Energy for cultivation, but it was also very safe. They wouldn’t be attacked by other Monster Beasts, and they could obtain Pills. Even the White Python who ascended to the upper realm received help here.

However, Lin Yi didn’t accept all Monster Beasts. The conditions for accepting Spirit Beast Disciples were much stricter than in the Golden Sword Lineage.

Moreover, what he showed to the outside Monster Beasts was his Overlord Form, not his true self. Even if a Monster Beast spread such a message to disciples who entered the Secret Realm, no one would suspect him.

Over these years, he used the Minor Blessing State and spent some Virtue Points to help those Spirit Beasts who cultivated the hardest and often completed tasks to enhance their bloodlines. The one with the highest Cultivation Level among them was the Bull Demon.

All these Spirit Beasts felt the enhancement of their Bloodlines and were overjoyed. This also gave hope to other Spirit Beast Disciples. Even the pale golden rat, who watched this scene, was driven crazy and secretly determined to cultivate well to gain the qualification next time.

After arriving at the dojo, the tiger demon guarding the gate quickly got up and paid respects to Lin Yi, “Little Tiger greets the master.”

Lin Yi nodded slightly. Over the past thirty years, this tiger demon had guarded the gate tirelessly and without complaint, proving to be a model in the security world. The savage aura in its eyes was completely gone, replaced by the composure of an old gatekeeper. It even adopted a name, Tiger Gate.

This reminded him of a character named Chu Men, who was also trapped in a world constructed by others.

Looking at Tiger Gate, he asked, “Little Tiger, how do you feel after watching the gate for more than thirty years here?”

A kind smile appeared on Tiger Gate’s face, and it sent a Divine Intent, “Master, I realized how na?ve I used to be. I used to believe that brute force represents everything, but revealing a savage aura clearly alerts others. It’s completely different from hiding a knife behind a smile or pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger. The master’s realm is undoubtedly much more profound.”

“Not bad. Keep going. You have already achieved three-tenths of my strength.” Lin Yi patted its head in satisfaction. He didn’t expect that this fellow would comprehend the essence of the Path of Survivor while just guarding the gate. It was indeed a promising talent.

“Hehe, thank you, master. Little Tiger will continue to work hard.” Tiger Gate said cheerfully, his eyes squinted in joy.

Lin Yi smiled, “Alright, you can say the main point now. You should feel more than just these.”

Tiger Gate hesitated a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, “Master, I am not satisfied with just seeing the gate. I want to become an official disciple of the dojo.”

“Fine, you can go to Assistant Monkey for the token of the official disciple tomorrow.” Lin Yi immediately agreed. After serving diligently for more than thirty years, the temperament of this Tiger Gate was almost honed.

Tiger Gate was stunned, and he touched his ears in disbelief, “Master, what, what did you say, can I become an official disciple?”

“Yes, go now.” Lin Yi smiled mildly.

“That’s great, thank, thank you, master. Little Tiger is going, but… There’s no one watching the gate…” With excitement, Tiger Gate cheered and thanked again, then quickly walked towards the dojo. However, after only a few steps, he suddenly returned, worriedly pointing at the gate.

Lin Yi waved his hand, “There is a formation here, it won’t allow outsiders to enter.”

“Thank you, master.” Tiger Gate quickly bowed in gratitude, then hopped and skipped joyfully towards the dojo, cheering all the while, which drew the attention of some Spirit Beast Disciples in the dojo.

Even with the mature mentality of an old gatekeeper, he was unable to resist the weight of the words ‘official disciple’.
