The Path of Survivor begins with obtaining titles

All the disciples of Golden Sword Peak saw this and took a bow, “Greetings to all the Zen Ren…”

Green Jade Zen Ren waved his hand gently, grinning at Gold Sword Zen Ren, “Get up, all of you. Gold Sword, your Golden Sword lineage is really full of joy. A few years ago, Quiet Jade Ana has achieved the Golden Core, and now, you have another disciple about to break through. I wonder which disciple it is.”

“Sect Master, the one in seclusion below is my nineteenth direct disciple, Lin Yi,” Gold Sword Zen Ren calmly stated.

Upon hearing the words of his master, Zhou Yun Feng and Qi Jing Yu couldn’t help showing surprise. When they saw this Cave Mansion belonged to their junior brother, they were unsure whether he had swapped Cave Mansions with someone else.

After confirmation from their master, they became completely sure that their former junior brother had become the third disciple of the Golden Sword lineage to achieve the Golden Core, which was truly astonishing.

Drunken Immortal recalled for a moment, opened his mouth and said, “Lin Yi, I seem to have some impression of him. Isn’t he the one who got precious spiritual grass in the secret realm and helped your great disciple Zhou Yun Feng to complete his foundation? Later, he has been lecturing in the sect for a long time. I didn’t expect him to achieve the Golden Core too.”

Gold Sword Zen Ren nodded, “Exactly, after achieving Foundation Building Great Perfection, he has been in seclusion for more than sixty years. I didn’t expect that he would be able to break through the realm and condense the Golden Core.”

Drunken Immortal showed a hint of surprise, “It really is him. I remember he was only at the Qi Refining Eighth Stage when he entered the secret realm. One of my disciples was at Qi Refining Ninth Layer. Now, he has achieved the Golden Core, while my disciple is still at perfect Foundation Building stage, unable to break through.”

Hearing Lin Yi’s name, Hua Yang and Wan Jun Zen Ren suddenly remembered, and they were greatly shocked. It was this young man who had accidentally obtained seven precious spiritual grasses in the Dan God Secret Realm and they had raised doubts about it.

Unexpectedly, this Qi Refining disciple, who once addressed them as Zen Ren and doubted by them, was soon to achieve the Golden Core and become their junior brother.

Green Jade Zen Ren also remembered some things and showed a look of emotion, “I remember he was an Outer Sect Spirit Farmer with lower-grade spiritual roots. Jing Yun have recruited him into the Inner Sect. Now, he is about to become our junior brother. Jing Yun, you have chosen a good seedling for the sect and made a great contribution.”

Zhou Yun Feng smiled and said, “Sect Master, when I announced the reward and punishment rules in Sinong Palace, Junior Brother Lin Yi entered the Inner Sect by his own farming skills. However, it is true that I have personally recruited him into the Golden Sword Peak. I didn’t expect that I would recruit a future Golden Core cultivator.”

Green Jade Zen Ren nodded slightly, and said to the disciples below, “Yes, this also illustrates that as long as you are determined, spiritual roots are not a complete barrier to the path of cultivation. You disciples with middle-grade, high-grade and supreme-grade spiritual roots, need to work even harder.”

The disciples below all bowed and replied, “We will follow the Sect Master’s teaching.”

Although they said this, many disciples didn’t really believe it. They felt that Lin Yi must have had some opportunities, otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to achieve the Golden Core.

Moreover, Lin Yi had made a great contribution in helping Zhou Yun Feng complete his foundation, which provided him with a lot of resources to cultivate. They simply could not meet this condition.

However, they were all happy about Lin Yi achieving the Golden Core stage. After all, this uncle would give them a lecture once in a while, and each lecture lasted for 24 hours.

During the lectures, they gained a lot, feeling that their minds had become somewhat smarter.

Subsequently, Green Jade Zen Ren gave an order, “Convey my command, Golden Sword Peak is now off-limits, and the full power of the Inner Sect formation is to be activated.”

In the following period, the sky continually condensed spiritual energy, pouring it into the cave mansion below for more than a month. Then, a vast aura surged forth from within the cave mansion, directly dispersing the manifestation of spirit energy that had gathered above.

The surrounding trees too, swayed incessantly. It was exactly the same as when Zhou Yun Feng had achieved his Golden Core.

However, judging from the aura, it seemed much weaker than Zhou Yun Feng’s, which everyone found reasonable. After all, Lin Yi was of lower-grade spiritual roots. Even if he achieved the Golden Core, there was quite a significant difference when compared to the superior and supreme-grade spiritual roots.

Soon, a young man dressed in Golden Sword Peak robes flew out from the cave mansion, radiating the formidable aura of a Golden Core, a smile spreading on his face as he bowed towards the sky, “Disciple greets the Sect Master, greets my Master, greets all my uncles.”

“Ha ha ha, you truly are one of Jing Yun’s disciples, you all talk in the same way. Now that you’ve achieved a Golden Core, you should start addressing us as elder brothers,” the Drunken Immortal laughed loudly, walking over to pat Lin Yi’s shoulder and speak.

“Ahem, thank you for the reminder Elder Brother Drunken Immortal. Lin Yi greets all my elder brothers and sisters, greets Master.” Lin Yi coughed lightly, then offered a bow.

Hearing these words, the Drunken Immortal couldn’t help but smile, “I wasted my breath, you and Jing Yun are truly cut from the same cloth. To you, your master holds a higher status than all of us. I’ve already guessed your next reply, ‘A teacher for a day, a father for life’, am I right? Golden Sword, you have truly taught a good group of disciples.”

Gold Sword Zen Ren also shook his head and laughed, “Lin Yi, I congratulate you on achieving your Golden Core. You have exceeded my expectations and created a miracle, proving that even those with lower-grade spiritual roots can create a Golden Core.”

“The fact I have lower-grade spiritual roots cannot be changed, so I can only change myself. I must furthermore thank Master’s guidance.” Lin Yi once again bowed.

Other true people in attendance began to express their congratulations to Lin Yi. Even Hua Yang and Wan Jun Zen Ren managed to squeeze out a little smile.

Following that, Green Jade Zen Ren opened his mouth and said: “Lin Yi, now that you have accomplished your Golden Core, you should choose a Daoist title for yourself.”

Lin Yi nodded his head, contemplated for a moment before saying, “I cultivated and attained Dao in Liu Yun Sect, so let’s call my Daoist title Yun Yi.”.

Green Jade Zen Ren then expressed a smile of satisfaction on his face, he said, “Very well, Yun Yi. Your Golden Core achievement and vein-breakthrough ceremony will be held in a month, and we will also discuss and decide the location of the Yun Yi lineage after.”

“Thank you, Sect Master.” Lin Yi naturally didn’t refuse. Now that he had exhibited his Golden Core cultivation level in the Liu Yun Sect and shown it off in front of other sects, it was a trivial matter. Moreover, he was only one step away from breaking through the Golden Core stage to reach the Nascent Soul stage.

Once he became a Nascent Soul True Monarch, combined with various title effects and his Golden Core size, he would possess the formidable strength of the Deification Realm. Even if he were to face the Nascent Soul Ancestors of various sects, he would easily manage to cope.

The other Golden Core holders also came over again to congratulate him, addressing him as Junior Brother Yun Yi.

When it was Jade Illusion’s turn, she approached him with a bright smile, “Junior Brother Yun Yi, Sister congratulates you on achieving your Golden Core and is about to open your vein. You had previously refused the invitation to preach at Jade Illusion Peak as your master said you were going into seclusion to cultivate. Now that you’ve achieved the Golden Core, you can’t decline the invitation.”

Lin Yi looked at this beautiful Jade Illusion Zen Ren, and he felt a bit melancholic. The first time he had seen Jade Illusion, her external cultivation level was only at the Qi Refining Eighth Stage and her true cultivation level was only at the Foundation Establishment.

Now, he was her junior brother. He gave a slight nod, “Since Sister persistently extends her cordial invitation, I will find some spare time to give a sermon at Jade Illusion Peak.”

“Then Sister is looking forward to your grand arrival.” Jade Illusion Zen Ren gazed at Lin Yi with her beautiful eyes and said with a laugh.
