The Path of Survivor begins with obtaining titles

Lin Yi gave a chuckle and suggested to Xu Yu Rou, “As long as you hold me in your heart, that’s all that matters. But ‘Yi Yu’ sounds slightly odd, you can consider ‘Yu Yi’. The feather from a bird, the wings from wings, signifying that you have grown wings, you can leave your mentor and soar on your own.”

Yi Yu nodded in agreement, realizing that ‘Yu Yi’ sounded much better. Moreover, he planned to create a magical weapon for his direct disciple before his pseudocide.

He only has two hundred years left to live, while Xu Yu Rou, still in her Golden Core stage, has just over two hundred and fifty years. Once they run out, unless she has formed her Nascent Soul, she’ll only have fifty years left to live.

However, he planned to instruct her and support her as much as possible in forming her Nascent Soul within the remaining two hundred years.

“That’s a lovely name. ‘Yu Yi’, very fitting for our adorable Junior Sister,” Qi Jing Yu approvingly nodded her head.

“I am grateful to my Master. From now on, my title will be Yu Yi,” Xu Yu Rou said, bowing deeply in gratitude.

“Good, Junior Sister Yu Yi, focus on your cultivation. We will hold your Golden Core ceremony a month from now and establish Feather Peak,” Qi Jing Yu spoke cheerily.

The other Golden Core experts greeted one another and then left on their flying swords.

“Master, may I remain at Yun Yi Peak?” Xu Yu Rou asked as soon as they were alone.

Lin Yi considered this and replied, “Are you sure you want to stay at Yun Yi Peak? Establishing your own peak and becoming a master would grant you higher status and more resources.”

In his heart, he of course wanted her to stay. After all, having only 250 years left in her lifespan, establishing a peak was a laborious task, which would consume a lot of her time.

Then he feared she wouldn’t have much time left for her cultivation. Even Senior Brother Zhou Yun Feng with his supreme-grade spiritual roots and accumulation of progress over many years, was only just able to have a shot at forming his Nascent Soul before the end of his lifespan.

Not to mention Xu Yu Rou with her lower-grade spiritual roots. Moreover, when Zhou Yun Feng established Jing Yun Peak, he received plenty of help from the Golden Sword Lineage, which allowed him to slowly progress without it being overly time-consuming.

Although Lin Yi would help if she decided to establish Feather Peak, the aid would not be as substantial as what Golden Sword Peak had received in its early days.

“Those things are meaningless to me, I’d rather stay and assist Master,” Xu Yu Rou firmly affirmed.

Lin Yi nodded gently, “Very well, it’s comforting to know you are so determined. Go back to strengthen your cultivation. I’ll explain this to the other Golden Core experts.”

Since he was now the Deputy Sect Master and Sect Master Zhou Yun Feng was in closed-door cultivation, the task of notifying the other Golden Core experts fell to him. As for Master Golden Sword, he would never bother with such petty matters.

Very soon, news of Xu Yu Rou, a foundation-building cultivator from Yun Yi Lineage with lower-grade spiritual roots, breaking through and achieving the Golden Core, spread throughout the Cultivation World.

This caused quite a shock among the cultivators as it’s hard to believe that someone with lower-grade spiritual roots could achieve the Golden Core.

However, within Liu Yun Sect, there were two cultivators who achieved the Golden Core with lower-grade spiritual roots. One was Yun Yi Zen Ren, and the other was his disciple.

This reminds people of the rumors about Yun Yi Zen Ren’s exceptional ability to stir up one’s potential and awaken talents.

At the time these rumors had spread, Yun Yi Zen Ren had only reached the Foundation Building Realm. Now, years into the Golden Core Realm, along with the presence of two True Lords within Liu Yun Sect, no one would dare to harbor any ill intentions.

Moreover, they felt Yun Yi Zen Ren was extremely unassuming and almost forgettable, with no significant presence at all. In fact, many of them couldn’t even remember what he looked like.

Had it not been for Liu Yun Sect’s invitation for their recent celebration, they likely would have entirely forgotten about Yun Yi Zen Ren, leaving no room for any other thoughts about him.

Certain Loose Cultivators with middle and lower-grade spiritual roots, hearing this news, were filled with yearning for Yun Yi Peak of Liu Yun Sect. If they became disciples of Yun Yi Peak, perhaps they too would get a chance to enter the Golden Core Realm and become esteemed individuals.

A month later, Xu Yu Rou’s Golden Core ceremony was held, with all the invited guests being from righteous sects. Most of those who attended were Golden Core experts, very different from the situation where a Nascent Soul True Monarch led the delegation from the Sun Moon Divine Sect.

Upon hearing this news, Lord Jade Illusion of the Sun Moon Divine Sect sent Qing Su Zen Ren from Medicine God Valley to send their congratulations. After all, the relationship between Liu Yun Sect and Medicine God Valley was a good one.

She couldn’t help but feel a sense of regret. Lin Yi’s disciples had all become Golden Core experts in the blink of an eye. Time truly flew by, which just proved the effectiveness of his teaching abilities and his unique skill to stimulate potential and develop talent.

At the Golden Core ceremony, Liu Yun Sect only carried out the congratulations for the Golden Core. The parts of the ceremony where Array Method Jade Plate was given and a new Golden Core lineage was established, were skipped.

As the Deputy Sect Master, Lin Yi also announced Xu Yu Rou’s decision to remain in the Yun Yi Lineage and not establish a new peak.

This news surprised many cultivators. Not establishing her own Golden Core lineage, this Golden Core expert seemed to be neglecting her responsibility.
