The Path of Survivor Begins With Obtaining Titles

 

Since this was the first time he had seen a forum-type communication platform in the Cultivation World, he browsed through a lot of information on it. There were inquiries about personal cultivation problems, requests to purchase Pills and Spiritual Artifacts, and materials, as well as postings seeking Daoist companions. It was all very authentic.

Among the posts, there were quite a few about Dongfang Bubai passing the three-level challenge of Tai Xuan Tower at the first level of Huashen, which sparked a lot of responses from Dao Palace disciples.

Most Dao Palace disciples expressed their amazement, and if it hadn’t been for the many who had seen it with their own eyes, they would have definitely doubted the authenticity of this news.

Some others commented that Dongfang Bubai was personally brought into the Dao Palace by Lord Xu of the Ascension Hall, suggesting that his identity might be that of an Ascender.

Immediately, this sparked a heated debate among Ascenders, discussing which Cultivation World Dongfang Bubai ascended from, as he seemed so formidable.

Some Dao Palace disciples also said that there were rumors Dongfang Bubai was peerlessly beautiful and alluring, wondering if it could be true.

Seeing these messages, Lin Yi couldn’t help but shake his head and smile. On his first day in the Dao Palace, he had already managed to create a buzz on this Cultivation forum. He skimmed past these posts and continued looking.

Suddenly, he noticed an inconspicuous post. A Cultivator with Five-Level Authority mentioned that a friend of his, who was practicing the Creation Method, had discovered some discrepancies. It seemed that after the ninth level, one could continue to improve instead of breaking through to a new realm. This was causing considerable distress, and he sought contact with Cultivators who encountered the same issue.

This message made Lin Yi both want to laugh and cry; this must be someone fishing with a blatant hook, the tactic was really too low-level.

On the Tai Xuan Mirror, this feature that allowed Dao Palace disciples to communicate with each other was called the Dao Discussion Pavilion, a fitting name indeed. Other users could reply to posted information at will.

Beneath this message, most of the comments were teasing. For example, one suggested that the friend of this Daoist had discovered a great secret and should quickly delete the message and focus on his own cultivation.

Others laughed, saying the Daoist had stumbled upon treasure, as he had forged an extra small Cultivation realm compared to other Cultivators. But reaching a higher realm? That would be impossible.

Lin Yi shook his head again. These replies also confirmed his previous deductions were correct; knowing that the Creation Method had ten levels, many Cultivators would not opt to practice it.

Needlessly having to cultivate an extra realm over other Cultivators — how could that be justified? It meant that while others were breaking into a new realm, you were still lingering in the lower one.

Everyone has the same lifespan; with one more realm to cultivate, you would have to spend more of your life on it.

Lin Yi had a deep understanding of the difficulty of the Creation Method. Without his title’s help, even if he realized the wonders of the Creation Method, he wouldn’t have chosen to cultivate it.

After a while, Lin Yi put away the Tai Xuan Mirror, went down to the Cultivation cave mansion, and began cultivating with Zhi Ling.

His success in passing the three-level challenge of Tai Xuan Tower at the initial stage of Huashen gradually spread. The Dao Palace did not stop the news from covering the possibility that the Demon Tribe might come to assassinate him, of course; they had considered it. It was nothing more than fishing, waiting to see if the news could bait a big fish from the Demon Tribe. However, it was unknown whether they would dare to come to Tai Xuan Divine City.

Before telling the surrounding Cultivators about his success in the Tai Xuan Tower, Lin Yi had already considered such potential dangers but didn’t take them too seriously.

As he wouldn’t leave Tai Xuan Divine City until he reached the Refining Void Realm, and once there, he would be able to unleash the formidable power of the Body Fusion Realm.

The next day, Lin Yi left Zhi Ling in the cultivation cave mansion to practice on her own, instructing her not to leave the mansion. He then flew on his sword towards the Hall of Preaching to welcome the first teaching session since his entry into the Dao Palace.

The session was conducted by a Cultivator of the Refining Void Realm and was focused on Formations, aimed at Divinity Disciples with a certain foundation in Formations.

Within the Tai Xuan Dao Palace, there were also a number of disciples below the realm of Divinity, mostly those with the talent of Spiritual Roots who Cultivated or the Spirit City Guards who had accrued enough merits to exchange for the opportunity to study at the Dao Palace.

However, on the whole, the disciples of the Dao Palace were mainly at the Huashen level. After all, Ascenders from various realms brought a considerable number of disciples at the Huashen level to the Dao Palace.

Most of the teaching and transmission of the Dao took place below the summit of Transmission Peak, and the Tai Xuan Mirror provided guidance on their locations.

Lin Yi, riding his sword, arrived at a hall halfway up the mountain. At the entrance, he saw some cultivators queuing to enter. They were using their Identity Jades to emit a glow, projecting their names into the Tai Xuan Mirror above the hall.

In the Tai Xuan Mirror, he had also checked related information. All cultivators who registered for a guidance class had to sign in, and those who were absent without cause would be recorded. After a certain number of absences, they would be expelled from the Dao Palace.

When it was his turn at the hall’s entrance, he took out his Identity Jade, stimulated a stream of Spiritual Power, and projected it into the Tai Xuan Mirror above. Instantly, the characters for “Invincible East” appeared.

Upon seeing the name “Invincible East,” some of the waiting cultivators showed a hint of surprise on their faces.

Many Dao Palace disciples would open the Tai Xuan Mirror during their breaks to view the latest news, and they were no exception.

Especially since the news of Invincible East passing the three layers of Tai Xuan Tower had spread throughout the entire Dao Palace within a day, many cultivators knew more or less some details.

Moreover, quite a few Ascenders wanted to meet this powerful Eastern Daoist friend to exchange experiences.

However, when the characters “Invincible East” appeared before their eyes, the whole scene suddenly fell silent.

Lin Yi paid no attention to the silence and leisurely walked into the hall.

The cultivators behind him quickly took out their Identity Jades, signed in on the Tai Xuan Mirror, and then hurriedly entered the hall.

Soon after, a voice came from behind Lin Yi, “Daoist friend, may I ask if you are the Invincible East who passed the third layer of the Tai Xuan Tower yesterday?”

Upon hearing this voice, the cultivators who had already taken their seats inside the hall were startled and looked over.

Lin Yi turned around and saw a Huashen cultivator with clasped fists. He nodded lightly and returned the salute, “Yes, I am that Invincible East.”

The Huashen cultivator saluted again, “I’ve seen Eastern Daoist friend. Passing the three layers of Tai Xuan Tower with just the first level of Huashen is indeed earth-shattering. I am also an Ascender. I joined the Dao Palace decades ago and attempted the Tai Xuan Tower once but didn’t even pass the first layer.”

“Ah, me too. I truly admire you, Eastern Daoist friend. Do you have any secret method?” The other Ascenders gathered around, curiously inquiring.

“There are no shortcuts in cultivation. Please keep striving,” Lin Yi said indifferently, then found a seat near the front and sat down.

The surrounding cultivators dispersed to find their own seats. They weren’t the least bit annoyed by Lin Yi’s dismissive attitude, after all, he had the credentials to back it up and was an incredibly enchanting female cultivator.

Just from the name “Invincible East,” one could tell how domineering her personality was.

The cultivators took seats around the hall, but the spots close to Lin Yi remained conspicuously empty.

Lin Yi didn’t mind at all. His only concern was how much he could gain from this class, as it was his first time to take advantage of such an opportunity since ascending to the upper realm.

Based on the increase in cultivation levels from this class, he could infer whether the Dan Immortal’s cultivation was at the Fusion stage or just at the Refining Void stage.

Soon, the time for the class to start arrived. Lin Yi looked around and saw that the hall, which could accommodate more than five hundred people, was almost full, which showed the allure of formations to cultivators.

Many cultivators, striving to break through to the Deification Realm, cultivated day and night. Being able to achieve success in just one of the Four Arts of Cultivation was already quite impressive.

Most cultivators focused their research on pills and talismans, while formations and artifact refining required certain resources.

Just like Lin Yi, who had only mastered pill concoction and formations to a high degree. As for artifact refining, he only had a superficial mastery. The Supreme Talisman Wind-Thunder Wings, which he refined and left to Xu Yu Rou, was completed only under the guidance of the Dan Immortal Master.
