The Path of Survivor begins with obtaining titles

Chapter 475: Chapter 249: Development of the Spirit Beast Dojo_2

Upon witnessing this scene, Zhang Dao Xuan too sensed the atmosphere of decay and a hint of astonishment crept onto his face. After careful deliberation, he couldn’t help but sincerely inquire, “Could it be that the transformation at the Tenth Level of Golden Core allows the Five Elements to possess some exclusive effect?”

“Master, that judgment is up to you; I unfortunately can’t provide an explanation,” Lin Yi said with a smile. Staring in his master’s direction, he was unable to shake or nod his head or reveal even the slightest piece of information.

The transformation that the Tenth Level of Golden Core brings about is not just the possession of some unique effect but an outright conversion of an element to its opposite.

Zhang Dao Xuan mildly nodded his head and looked at Lin Yi thoughtfully, “Young man, you’ve been so cautious, concealing most of your secrets while demonstrating the Creation Method’s secret to me. Thank you for your trust.”

This young man could have hidden everything behind the excuse of inscrutable destiny. Instead, he chose to demonstrate this secret, and while Zhang Dao Xuan may not have made an accurate guess regarding it, this deed represented the greatest form of trust.

“You, sir, are my master, a teacher for a day, a father for life. Of course, I trust you,” Lin Yi said with a grin.

“Ha-ha-ha, you rascal, are you planning to stick with me forever?” Zhang Dao Xuan said with a somewhat suppressed laugh.

Lin Yi chuckled, “Master, once we reach the Upper Realm, you must continue to guide me.”

“That, will be up to my discretion,” Zhang Dao Xuan said leisurely, then asked again, “What are you planning to do next? Stay in the Secret Realm and continue to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm or return to the Liu Yun Sect?”

“Since I’ve set a plan, I’ll continue practicing in the Secret Realm. I’ll see if I can make a breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Realm in the remaining decade and fulfill my plan.” With his current cultivation level appearing to be at the Golden Core First Layer, Lin Yi naturally wouldn’t choose the second option.

He could return to the Liu Yun Sect and release the stored Golden Core images now, but then he would be perceived as someone who broke through from Perfect Foundation Building to Golden Core in just over twenty years, which would undoubtedly attract even more attention.

If he waited another twenty or thirty years, the attention he’d draw wouldn’t be as intense.

Naturally, the reason for his rapid rise in cultivation was his powerful student title and having found an excellent opportunity to take advantage of a master whose real body was in the Upper Realm and had a wisp of Divine Soul in the Lower Realm.

Otherwise, at over one hundred and thirty years old and with his Cultivation Speed as someone with a Lower-grade Spiritual Root, even with the title that increases his speed, he could at most be on the verge of achieving the Tenth Layer Foundation Building, just about to create the Golden Core.

“Good, you have admirable determination. What are you still waiting around for? Go and cultivate. Do you want me to teleport you to the Cave Mansion?” Zhang Dao Xuan nodded and praised him, then waved his hand, opening a teleportation passage before Lin Yi.

Lin Yi blinked and said helplessly, “Master, please spare me. It’s been a long time since I saw Zhi Ling and the others. I don’t even know if they’ve reached the Golden Core Realm of humans.”

Zhang Dao Xuan couldn’t help but laugh at Lin Yi’s words, waved his hand and said, “All right, you can take a few days off. Off you go.”

“Thank you, Master, for generously giving your disciple a few days.” Lin Yi said through gritted teeth and then, holding the Teleportation Mantra, went to the Spirit Beast Dojo.

After Lin Yi left, Zhang Dao Xuan couldn’t help but start laughing. Then, he began to reminisce about the scene just demonstrated, thinking about what exactly the transformation at the Tenth Level of Golden Core was.

When teleporting away, Lin Yi had already switched to his Overlord Form; even though he could directly teleport into the Dojo, it felt more formal to go through the entrance. This way, he could get a better feel for the current state of the Dojo.

At this moment, he saw two Spirit Beasts at the Qi Refining Realm guarding the main entrance of the Dojo — a tiger and a wild boar with ominous tusks standing to the left and right of the door. The scene looked quite abstract.

Upon seeing Lin Yi, the two Spirit Beasts were visibly startled and immediately dropped to all fours in respect. Without the ability to project Divine Intent due to their Qi Refining Realm state, they each roared in their ways to express their reverence.

Lin Yi nodded and petted both the tiger and the boar’s head before directly entering the Spirit Beast Dojo. His seclusion had lasted for over twenty-seven years, with the first six years spent cultivating to the Complete Ninth Stage of Qi Refining.

Afterward, he took twenty-one more years to evolve and create the Tenth Level of Golden Core. His plan of reaching 150 years now had just over ten years remaining, leaving no time for completion.

If he had not evolved the Tenth Layer, he might have been successful in reaching the Nascent Soul Realm before reaching 150 years. However, that way, he wouldn’t get the transformation.

As for the Tenth Level Golden Core transformation, its effects didn’t seem so evident now. But when his realms get higher and higher, it would exhibit an immensely powerful effect.

With just a wave of his hand, he could cause a vibrant planet to decay and deteriorate.

Compared to before, Spirit Beast Dojo was somewhat busier, with more buildings. He flew into the sky for a look and saw that the area had almost doubled in size.

Perhaps it should not be referred to as a dojo anymore, but rather, it was beginning to take on the form of a sect.

Not long after Lin Yi landed on the ground, a bolt of lightning and a flame flew out from inside. The lightning transformed into Zhi Ling, who perched on his shoulder and continuously rubbed its head against him.

The flame turned into Fire Feather, who tightly clung to his leg with its two wings.

From their auras, they had already reached the Golden Core Realm of human cultivators.

“Zhi Ling, Fire Feather, well done. It seems you have also broken through to the next realm in the years I’ve been in seclusion.” Lin Yi said with a smile as he petted their heads.

Zhi Ling proudly raised its little head, acting as if it wanted more praise.

Fire Feather flapped its wings happily, expressing its gratitude to Lin Yi deep down.

At that moment, a white spirit deer flew over to Lin Yi and bowed, saying, “Greetings, Lord.”

Lin Yi nodded with a smile and glanced at the deer using the Spirit Wood Technique, discovering that this white deer was about to reach the Perfection Realm of the Golden Core. It was soon going to be qualified to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm.

However, although monster beasts could form an inner core within their bodies similar to humans, they were unable to become nascent souls.

After reaching the Golden Core, the next realm for monster beasts was Bone Refining. During this phase, they would have to refine their bones to prepare for their next phase of Crossing Tribulation Transformation.

In this realm, the physique of a common monster beast typically became somewhat enormous, much like White Painting. But after crossing the tribulation, they would gain the ability to freely transform into humans.

“Little White, it seems you’ve stayed hard at work during these years. You’re just one step away from Golden Core Perfection now.” Lin Yi couldn’t help but say.

This white deer seemed to like going into seclusion at any given opportunity. It was probably the only one among the three guardian beasts on the threshold of reaching Golden Core Perfection now.

“I would not have achieved what I am now without your guidance, Lord.” The white deer responded seriously. It wouldn’t be so far in its cultivation without Lin Yi’s bloodline enhancement.

Before, it considered its destiny to reach Bone Refining in its lifetime a fortunate thing. The thought of Transformation was unimaginable, but Lin Yi’s arrival and White Painting’s ascension gave it hope.

Lin Yi patted it on the head, “Keep it up. After you reach the Bone Refining Realm, I’ll try to help you awaken deeper bloodlines to give you a chance to ascend to the Upper Realm.”

“Thank you, Lord.” The white deer kneeled deeply. With Lin Yi’s promise, it was content.

Then, under the guidance of the white deer, he observed the current situation at the Spirit Beast Dojo. Initially, the first batch of disciples was only about fifty-sixty, but now there were over four hundred.

According to the deer’s introduction, to ensure these Spirit Beast Disciples remained pure at heart, Zhang Dao Xuan specifically arranged for an Illusion Formation. All disciples joining were subjected to this illusion test.

Any spirit beasts harboring vile thoughts would unwittingly reveal their true nature in the illusion

In one of the training grounds, Lin Yi saw the Tiger Demon who used to guard the gate, no, it should be called Tiger Gate now, seriously teaching some disciples how to cultivate.

The disciples below were like animals at a meeting, even spiders were included.

While Lin Yi didn’t want to disturb them, Tiger Gate acutely sensed the presence and turned its head. Seeing Lin Yi, it left its disciples and ran over at high speed, bending its tiger paws to bow to Lin Yi, “Tiger Gate pays respects to the Lord.”
