The Path of Survivor begins with obtaining titles

Chapter 250: Chapter 153: The New Effect of the Alchemy Title 2

Translator: 549690339

If he were to integrate the Pill fire of his title into his Dantian and refine his own Golden Core, he wondered what the scene would be like.

Of course, this was only a thought. The decision to implement it would depend on the subsequent insights from his cultivation. After all, no one had ever attempted this before, and the risk was indeed very high.

There was also a premise — sufficient Pill fire must be accumulated. To refine a Golden Core within the human body, probably a tremendous amount of Pill fire would be needed as support.

Lin Yi collected his thoughts, donned the upgraded title of [Skilled Alchemist], and began to experiment. Firstly, he crafted the basic Gathering Qi Pills. After the successful refining, he looked at his Intermediate Alchemy Skills and the alchemy title again, but there was no increment in experience.

From this, it could be confirmed that only by refining intermediate pills could his skills and title gain experience.

Refining skills, having successfully upgraded to an intermediate entry-level, was a whole Great Realm away from the high entry-level.

Even an extraordinarily gifted Alchemist like Senior Sister Qi Jing Yu took decades to advance from her first encounter with alchemy to her current pinnacle as an intermediate Pill Master.

Transitioning from the intermediate to high level would be even more difficult. Generally, high-level pills can be consumed by Golden Core Real Persons. Although those in the Foundation Building Realm can also refine high-level pills, very few Pill Masters are successful. Only those with extremely high talents in pill refining can succeed.

Just like Dan God Zhang Dao Xuan, he successfully refined the Golden Elixir when he was in the Foundation Building Realm, even before he accessed the Dan God Secret Realm.

His talent in pill refining naturally couldn’t be compared to Zhang Dao Xuan.

However, with the help of his title, he had a great chance of passing this test.

In the following time, Lin Yi still, according to his plan, primarily focused on alchemy and listening to classes on the side, improving his alchemy level and cultivation level at the same time.

After subsequent tests, he confirmed that the method for gaining experience for the Intermediate Alchemy Skills and [Skilled Alchemist] was the same as before.

For Alchemy Skills, you only gain one point of experience when you successfully refine a pill. As for the Alchemy title, you don’t have to succeed; refining three times grants you one point.

Of course, both require the refining of Intermediate Pills to improve, and any type of Intermediate Pill requires almost a day to refine.

As such, he slightly changed his plan. Apart from spending fifteen days refining pills in the Secret Realm, for the remaining fifteen days, he would attend two to three classes after each pill-refining session.

In this way, he wouldn’t attract too much attention. It would have felt too conspicuous if he had spent a few days dedicated to attending classes within a month.

Gradually, four months passed. According to his plan of refining pills for twenty-five days a month, Lin Yi almost refined 100 Intermediate Pills, and his [Skilled Alchemist] title gained over thirty points of experience.

As for the experience of Intermediate Alchemy Skills, he only gained it when he successfully refined a pill. Out of the 100 times he refined pills, he was successful fifty times, earning him fifty points of experience.

The success rate for ordinary entry-level Intermediate Pill Masters in pill refining is abysmally low, less than five percent. If it were not for the success rate increase of 40% from [Skilled Alchemist], he would have just been a bit better than other Pill Masters.

Any entry-level Pill Master at any stage would require countless resources to increase the success rate of pill refining. It’s not something an ordinary cultivator could afford, which also explains why Pill Masters are so precious.

When attending classes, Lin Yi chose Foundation Building Cultivators that he hadn’t listened to within the past two months to lower the risk. For half a month, after every pill refining session, he would attend two to three classes.

During this month, his cultivation could increase by at least thirty points. Over the course of four months, he boosted his cultivation by almost 120 points, leaving him just over eighty points away from reaching the

Foundation Building Third Level.

The upgrade of the [Elite Survivor] title was some way off yet, so there was no need to worry about the title suddenly upgrading and adding another layer of concealment effect. He could not possibly always stay in the last place forever, he had to elevate his apparent cultivation to the ninth complete level.

After sorting out his progress over the past four months, as Lin Yi was preparing to continue refining pills, a voice floated over from outside, “Junior Brother Lin, I am Wu Tian Zhang. You seem to be in secluded cultivation. I have exited my retreat and specifically came to give you my thanks.”

Upon hearing this voice, his expression shifted. It seemed that Elder Brother Wu had finally reached the Foundation Building Realm.

After all, it was two Supreme-grade Foundation Building Pills that increased the success rate of foundation establishment by fifty percent. If he still couldn’t succeed in foundation establishment, it would be better to give up.

Lin Yi quickly cleaned the Pill Refining Spiritual Furnace and stewed a pot of Monster Beast meat in it. He took it to the courtyard and sent a message through the formation, saying, “Elder Brother Wu, I’m not in seclusion, you may come in.”

Then, he went to the front of the courtyard to wait.

Shortly after, Wu Tian Zhang walked over with a beaming face. His condition was greatly different from before, and he exuded an extraordinary aura of the Foundation Building Realm.

“Elder Brother Wu, congratulations on breaking through and becoming a Foundation Building cultivator.” Lin Yi gave a bow with his fist in the other hand, and said with a smile.

Breaking through the foundation signified that one had truly stepped onto the path of cultivation and became the backbone of the sect. One would receive great attention, and the treatment would be completely different from that of the Qi Refinement Realm.

Just like Wu Tian Zhang, who was previously just an ordinary Pill Master in the Pill Hall, but now as a Foundation Building cultivator, he would serve as an elder in the Pill Hall and enjoy better alchemy conditions.

Wu Tian Zhang also walked over quickly, giving Lin Yi a bow, “Junior Brother Lin, fortunately, I did not disgrace your expectations. I owe my success to your supreme-grade Foundation Building Pill.”

“l used one supreme-grade Foundation Building Pill and successfully established my foundation. I cannot express my gratitude enough. If you ever need my help in the future, feel free to ask.”

“Elder Brother Wu, it’s also because you have accumulated enough. The

Foundation Building Pill only acted as a primer.” Lin Yi said with a smile. Although a supreme-grade Foundation Building Pill could increase the success rate by fifty percent, there was still a fifty percent failure rate. Without sufficient accumulation, even with a supreme-grade Foundation Building Pill, it could still fail.

Wu Tian Zhang shook his head, not taking Lin Yi’s modesty seriously, “What I was lacking was indeed a primer. Without this supreme-grade Foundation Building Pill, I might not have been able to establish my foundation in the foreseeable future.’

He repeated, “In the future, if you need me to do anything, just say it.”

“Alright, if I ever need help in the future, I’ll definitely call on Elder Brother Wu. Come on, I’m stewing some Monster Beast meat now. Come eat some with me.” Lin Yi smiled and nodded, pulling Wu Tian Zhang over.

Seeing that Lin Yi was really using the Pill Refining Spiritual Furnace to stew meat, Wu Tian Zhang couldn’t help but chuckle. If it were other Qi Refining Disciples, the Dan Hall Elder would not sell the Spirit Furnace so easily. Yet, this Junior Brother Lin was a direct disciple.

Though he himself had now become a Foundation Building cultivator in the

Dan Hall and would soon serve as an Elder, his relationship within the Dan Hall was not as strong as Lin Yi’s. He doubted if there would even be any need for him to lend a hand.

The master of the Pill Hall, Qi Jing Yu, was Lin Yi’s senior sister and also indebted to Zhou Yun Feng, hence greatly valued by Sister Qi.

However, this Junior Brother Lin was true to his original aspiration and always maintained a low-key style. He didn’t take advantage of the attention from his senior brothers and ask for more than he deserved. This was something Wu Tian Zhang deeply admired about him.

While eating the Monster Beast meat, Wu Tian Zhang spoke, “Junior Brother Lin, you should also strive to reach the nine complete levels as soon as possible, and then break through to Foundation Building. Only then will you be able to learn the true teachings of Master Uncle of the Golden Sword.”

In the Qi Refining Realm, the Gold Sword Zen Ren would not instruct much. Only after reaching the Foundation Building realm and becoming a true cultivator, could one learn his swordsmanship.

“Elder brother, rest assured, I’m always striving. Even with lower-grade spiritual roots, I still hold onto the desire to ascend to the Upper Realm.” Lin Yi said with a smile.

“Hahaha, that’s great. The aspirations of a junior brother are more far-reaching than mine.” Wu Tian Zhang laughed heartily. With his own qualifications, he felt satisfied if he could achieve a Golden Core in his lifetime. He didn’t dare to even think about the Nascent Soul Realm.

After finishing eating the Monster Beast meat, Wu Tian Zhang fist bumped to say goodbye and also returned the other Supreme-grade Foundation Building Pill.

Even though this Supreme-grade Foundation Building Pill could help him make some friends within the Golden Sword lineage, it was given by Lin Yi, and he couldn’t dispose of it privately.

Lin Yi stood in the courtyard, watching as Wu Tian Zhang left on his flying sword. He shook his head and smiled. It seemed that everyone had their flying sword ready before foundation establishment.

However, he wasn’t in a hurry, proceeding at his own pace. The Dan God Secret Realm was of utmost importance. Learning swordsmanship a bit later wouldn’t have much effect. After all, he was not the type to fight with others. Only when his realm overwhelmed others would he make a move..
