The Path of Survivor begins with obtaining titles

Chapter 465: Chapter 244 Late Golden Core Stage_2
After Lin Yi came out, the Golden Ape hadn’t had a chance to speak yet when a tiger’s roar came from not far away, followed by a voice transmitted by divine intent, “Little Tiger pays his respects to the Lord.”

The Golden Ape looked in the direction of the sound and glared at him, “Little Tiger, take good care of your own gate and stop being nosy.”

Then, it took the lead in bowing to Lin Yi, “Greetings, Lord.” Following this was a chorus of animal sounds.

Seeing this scene caused a sense of helplessness to arise in Lin Yi’s heart. He had to hold back his laughter, “Has everyone arrived?”

“My Lord, all the disciples of the dojo have arrived,” the Golden Ape said with some pride. Some beasts wanted to sleep in, but it had to door-knock them out of their slumber.

“Good, today is the first formal class, please take it seriously. Whether or not you can enhance your own bloodline depends on your own luck.” Lin Yi nodded lightly, speaking with a solemn expression.

In the previous period, he had told these spirit beasts that he could help them improve their bloodline capabilities, even awaken their ancestral bloodlines. However, he had kept the specific methods secret.

The numerous spirit beasts nodded gravely, the image of White Painting’s ascension lingering in their minds, making their hearts fill with longing.

“Okay, line up and come one by one.” Lin Yi waved his hand, and a table and chair appeared before him. He sat down directly on the chair, pulling some food out from his storage bag.

Until his Scholar title included more animal species, he wasn’t going to lecture these spirit beasts. Now, his ‘teaching’ consisted of simply feeding food, to see whether this could trigger the effect of the Pet Owner title and offer an opportunity to awaken the bloodline.

Seeing this, the Golden Ape was the first to step forward, reaching out his hand.

Lin Yi handed it a bag of jerky, saying with some annoyance, “I brought you to the dojo to be my assistant, not to freeload. Come and help after you finish eating.”

The Golden Ape scratched its head awkwardly, but its hand took the jerky without hesitation, stuffed it into its mouth, and then began calling other spirit beasts to come and get their food.

Zhi Ling and Fire Feather then moved to Lin Yi’s side, one on the right and one on the left, acting as if they were his protectors. They had originally wanted to help distribute the food, but were refused.

Lin Yi would naturally not let others replace him in feeding the spirit beasts because while the food could be prepared by others, the act of feeding had to be done personally by him to trigger the effect of the title.

The head disciple of the Spirit Beast Dojo, the Bull Demon, walked over briskly. It was full of doubt. Weren’t they supposed to have a lesson? Why were they being fed instead?

After receiving the food, the Bull Demon originally intended to save it for later, but Lin Yi instructed, “As soon as you receive the food, you must eat it right away. You can’t keep it.”

Next was the second disciple, a light golden little mouse. It curiously asked, “My Lord, didn’t you say you would teach us and help us improve our bloodlines? Why are you just feeding us? We can find food on our own.”

“My ability is to enhance your bloodlines through feeding. If you don’t believe it, then I won’t force it,” Lin Yi said with a smile.

Ordinary feeding won’t actually lead to a qualitative improvement in bloodline. But, this is for the sake of future considerations. He can’t wait until he actually needs to enhance a bloodline before he starts feeding them. This would make it seem like this ability is controllable and incredibly powerful.

“Little Mouse, if you don’t want to eat, hurry up and get out of the way for others. The Lord is kind enough to offer you this opportunity, yet you dare to doubt him.” Seeing the little mouse still hesitating, the Golden Ape became impatient.

The light golden mouse, hearing this, looked at the food in Lin Yi’s hand, chose one item, took it, and started eating.

The beasts behind it also took their food one by one. None triggered the effect because only long-term fed animals have a chance to trigger the effect. This is a prerequisite.

Perhaps even if he uses the Minor Blessing State now, he could not meet the conditions to trigger this effect.

Lin Yi had the spirit beasts take turns lining up for food for half of the day, and then announced that he would come to feed them irregularly in the future. For the remainder of the time, they were to cultivate on their own.

In this Spirit Beast Dojo, Zhang Dao Xuan had also changed the landscape with formations in advance, dividing the areas into various cave houses suitable for these spirit beasts to cultivate in. The spirit energy allocated to each cave house differed depending on the cultivation level of the spirit beast allocated to it.

Over the following period, Lin Yi began focusing on his cultivation. He had previously set a goal for himself – to reach the Nascent Soul Realm before the age of 150.

Despite being presently at the Fourth Layer of Golden Core and having entered the mid-stage realm, he still had six cultivation levels to overcome before attaining Nascent Soul. With over sixty years remaining, it seemed he had enough time on his side.

However, each subsequent level was more challenging than the last, and even with the benefits gleaned from his Pill Immortal Master, he couldn’t achieve this in a short amount of time.

Moreover, the creation and evolution required to reach the Tenth Level of Golden Core were dependent on his innate capabilities – no external assistance could be utilized, not to mention breaking into the Nascent Soul Realm.

Originally, evolving to the Foundation Building Tenth Layer took him four years. Even if he could complete the evolution to the Tenth Level of Golden Core in less than ten years, it would still require around eight years.

Afterward, he would need to enhance his cultivation levels by another ten layers, reaching the Perfection Realm before attempting the breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Realm. In this context, sixty to seventy years was a rather optimistic estimate.

Therefore, every moment had to be treasured – the sooner he achieved the Nascent Soul Realm, the more time he would have for the subsequent stages of his progression.

Fortunately, with the aid of his [Scholar]title, he could gain experience corresponding to the knowledge imparted by his Pill Immortal Master.

This meant that when his master taught him about alchemy and formations, he could acquire corresponding experience, facilitating his advancement in these areas without requiring too much time.

Moreover, the experience gained in this manner was genuine and not merely an empty higher rank without real power.

Still, Lin Yi would practice alchemy from time to time. After all, the Alchemy Furnace Talisman needed to be enhanced via alchemy to gain more experience and be elevated into a higher grade Spiritual Treasure.

Once his alchemy skills reached the Spirit Rank, further advancement became more gradual. Under the Golden Core Realm, he couldn’t attain skills of the alchemy rank beyond Spirit Rank.

Consequently, waiting until he reached the Nascent Soul Realm to focus on enhancing his alchemy skills was the most appropriate choice.

Gradually, over thirty years passed. Lin Yi had been in the Golden Core stage for more than forty years and is now over 110 years old.

For an ordinary person, this was an age associated with longevity, yet for Golden Core cultivators, it was less than a quarter of their five hundred years of lifespan.

Even for cultivators with Supreme-grade Spirit Roots, individuals of this age were usually still among the Foundation Building cultivators, while he had already reached the Eighth Level of Golden Core.

Upon entering the late Golden Core stage, his [Scholar]title was also promoted to the full level of the third rank. When being taught by the Pill Immortal Master, he could acquire 4 cultivation points every hour.

However, after reaching the eighth layer, he could only gain 3 points every hour. Given this rate, it was estimated that when he evolved to the Tenth Level of Golden Core, it would reduce to 1 point and would require a thousand hours of instruction to reach the Perfection Realm.

Despite this, it was still much faster than cultivating on his own. One thousand hours might seem like a lot, but converted to days—with twelve hours a day—it’s less than three months.

Of course, he couldn’t possibly expect his Pill Immortal Master to incessantly instruct him for three months. It needed to be spread over several months. After all, one must be gentle and not overexploit a valuable resource.

Besides, he himself needed to fuse various elemental powers within his Golden Core through his cultivation.

In these thirty years, as he continuously comprehended, the seven elements within Lin Yi’s Golden Core had started merging rapidly. With his understanding of the Wind-Thunder Element, he once again combined these two elements into a thunderstorm, accelerating the operation of his Golden Core.

However, this combination into a thunderstorm couldn’t last for an extended period of time. Besides, there was a cooldown period. Regardless, the integration of these elements with the Golden Core sped up considerably.

Nevertheless, this was only the fusion of each element with the Golden Core, and not the fusion of the seven elements with each other. Much like the thunderstorm where the two elements could only temporarily meld, they would separate once the time was up.

However, Lin Yi wasn’t overly anxious. Once the seven elements had fused with the Golden Core, the next step would naturally be their fusion with each other.
