The Path of Survivor begins with obtaining titles

Chapter 91: Chapter 76: Title [I Am Number One]_l

As they returned from the Sinong Palace, they ran into many Spirit Farmers giving their congratulations. Presumably, they had all seen the notice posted in the various planting zones.

In front of the Sinong Palace, there was a total leaderboard, and in each zone, apart from the top hundred rankings of the entire sect, there was also a leaderboard for the top ten in that specific zone.

What confused Lin Yi was that even though an endless stream of Spirit Farmers visited his Spiritual Field before, given that the total number of Spirit Farmers was in the tens of thousands, they constituted only a small proportion.

However, most of the unfamiliar Spirit Farmers that he met on the road could recognize him.

Unable to help himself, he grabbed a congratulatory Spirit Farmer and asked, “Thank you for your congratulations, fellow Taoist, but you look somewhat unfamiliar to me. How can you recognize that I am Lin Yi?”

This Spirit Farmer glanced at Huang De Sheng beside him, spoke as he walked:

“Brother Lin, though I don’t know you personally, rumor has it among the

Outer Sect that you are always spotted with an old lewd fellow.”

Having said that, he activated gale step and darted off swiftly.

Old Huang was immediately displeased, “Hey, stop right there, clarify to me, what do you mean by a ‘lewd old fellow’…”

“Old Huang, don’t stoop to their level, you are not lewd at all, you are just a bit unkempt at most.” Lin Yi chuckled and then applied the Wind Law, disappearing in an instant.

“Little Lin, you stop right there…” Old Huang furiously chased after him.

Upon returning to the ‘Bing’ planting zone, all Spirit Farmers spontaneously gathered at the entrance. Led by Spiritual Field Manager Meng Le Min, they saluted Lin Yi, “Brother Lin, congratulations on entering the Inner Sect.”

Even though Meng Le Min served as the Spiritual Field Manager, he was still an Outer Sect Disciple. But this time, he also had a chance to ride on Lin Yi’s coattails and receive some promotion.

“Thank you all, fellow Taoist. I’ve lived here for a year and I am grateful for everyone’s care,” Lin Yi returned the salute politely and said several polite remarks.

All the Spirit Farmers smiles bitterly. Some of them had been Spirit Farmers for twenty or thirty years, but Lin Yi has been a Spirit Farmer for only a year, yet he straight away rocketed into the sky advancing to the Inner Sect. Indeed, it was a comparison they could not win.

After a brief friendly chat, Lin Yi returned to his house. Zhi Ling, seeing his return, abruptly stopped her circling around the small stove and jumped towards him.

Wintertime in the Cultivation World was extremely cold, but for cultivators, it didn’t really matter. The reason for the small stove was to give the house a sense of warmth.

Lin Yi responded by catching Zhi Ling, patting her fur gently and also patting

Big Black’s head, “Zhi Ling, Big Black, we are moving to a bigger house.”

Upon hearing this, Zhi Ling’s eyes rolled excitedly. She made a few gestures with her paws and started to chirp happily.

Though Big Black didn’t quite understand, he joined in the enthusiastic barking.

Afterwards, Lin Yi sat by the stove, watching Zhi Ling continue her playful rounds. He fell into contemplation; entering the Inner Sect, he didn’t want to continue farming.

Even if the Spirit Rice from the upper grade Spiritual Fields was of a higher grade, it would not significantly contribute to his cultivation journey.

Hence, he decided to plant Spirit Grass and Spirit Medicine. The effects of his [Little Farmer] title were applicable to plants, so Spirit Grass and Spirit Medicine should fall within the effect range.

More importantly, this would be beneficial for him to learn Alchemy. The four arts of cultivation, regardless of whether it was Pill Equipment Formation, required enormous resources in the early stage, albeit Talismans demanded fewer resources.

As for Alchemy, it requires multiple failures to gain experience. If he could grow Spirit Grass and Spirit Medicine, he could basically sustain himself and save many Spirit Stones.

Lin Yi looked around his house; there was nothing noteworthy to take with him. Only Zhi Ling, Big Black, and some chickens that were raised outside needed to be relocated. Conveniently, for the New Year, he could slaughter a couple of chickens for cooking.

Initially, he thought of using these chickens to catch insects. But it turned out their efficiency was rather low and sometimes they even ate the Spirit Rice. For now, he just kept them for their eggs.

As for the awakening of the bloodline related to the [Junior Dung Cleaner] title, it might be of even less hope. Even Zhi Ling, who is confirmed to be a descendant of a monster beast, hasn’t awakened yet, let alone these ordinary chickens.

The title has now reached the third level. The effects of all other attributes have doubled. However, the chance of bloodline awakening has only increased by 2% with each progressive level. The current chance of awakening is 7%.

All he could hope for was that, after breaking through the foundation establishment stage in the future, the title upgrade to the next stage for the [Junior Dung Cleaner] could bring about even greater effects.

After lunch, Lin Yi went out alone, heading to the Outer Sect Affairs Hall. As expected, Old Huang did not follow him this time. The number of spirit farmers who greeted him along the way was indeed less. After all, he was still wearing the [Little Fantasizer] title, which reduced his presence by 15%.

When he arrived, he found quite a few people at the Affairs Hall. Some temporary spirit farmers who had cultivated their land well had already received the reward of qualifying to be an Outer Sect Spirit Farmer. They must have come here to exchange their identity plaques and become official Outer Sect Disciples.

Lin Yi silently stood at the back of the queue. However, before long, some Spirit Farmers who had gone to Sinong Palace to see the ranking list in the morning recognized him and made way for him. He repeatedly waved his hand, declining their polite gesture, ” No need to be so polite. I am fine with waiting here in the queue. After all, it’s just a bit of time.”

At this moment, a steward from the Affairs Hall saw Lin Yi and quickly spoke up, “Brother Lin, please come forward. The Inner Sect Disciple nameplates are different from theirs and are given out separately.”

Lin Yi walked slowly towards the front, feeling a bit reflective. From being an Outer Sect Spirit Farmer to becoming an Inner Sect Disciple, the change in status seemed to fill the world with goodwill. “Thank you, brother.”

“No need for formalities. Just call me junior brother. I will report to the hall leader now. Please wait a moment.” The Outer Sect Affairs Hall steward quickly waved his hand in response.

He took out a sound transmission talisman, activated it, and threw it out.

After a while, a middle-aged man approached from outside. Seeing Lin Yi, he showed a faint smile, “Junior Brother Lin, I am Gao Peng Yuan, the leader of the Outer Sect Affairs Hall. Congratulations on becoming an Inner Sect Disciple.”

He looked at the Spirit Farmer who had been promoted to the Inner Sect with disdain. After all, in the Cultivation World, strength is everything. A farmer entering the Inner Sect, it was simply ludicrous.

In his mind, Lin Yi was simply a lucky charm chosen by Zhou Yun Feng to manage the Sinong Palace. It was all for the sake of winning people over.

He thought that once Lin Yi entered the Inner Sect, other than farming, he would not find any other occupation to earn resources. Chances were, he might not even be able to complete sect missions.

Lin Yi felt a great perfection of Qi refining emanating from the man. At the same time, he also noticed the look of contempt in his eyes. However, Lin Yi just smiled it off and responded, “Thank you, Senior Brother Gao, for making the trip here for such a trivial matter.”

Gao Peng Yuan laughed loudly, “Hahaha, Junior Brother Lin, you are the first, and the only one, out of the Outer Sect Spirit Farmers to directly enter the Inner Sect. It’s worth making a trip.”

While speaking, he particularly emphasized the words ‘Outer Sect Spirit Farmer’. Apart from the lower-grade spirit fields, he heard that even the one who ranked first in the harvest of the middle-grade spirit fields did not get such a reward.

Of course, it was also because the increase in harvest and improvement in quality that the others gained were far inferior when compared to Lin Yi. Their increases were trivial in comparison.

Afterwards, he took out a blue jade plaque from his pocket and handed it over, “This is the identity plaque freshly made by the Inner Sect Affairs Hall. Please keep it safe. You can enter the Inner Sect by showing this plaque. Please return your Outer Sect Disciple identity plaque, Brother Lin.”

“Thanks, Senior Brother Gao.” Lin Yi took the jade plaque with both hands and then handed over his Outer Sect Disciple identity plaque. The two plaques clearly felt different. Although the Outer Sect Disciple’s was also a jade plaque, the material used was very inferior.

But this Inner Sect identity plaque emitted a spiritual light, and even had runes on it, as if it contained some kind of formation.

“Brother Lin, the Inner Sect identity plaque has a defensive array inside it which can be activated by igniting spiritual power. It can defend against one full-strength attack from a cultivator at the Foundation Establishment stage.” Gao Peng Yuan, seemingly realizing Lin Yi’s doubt, laughed and explained.

Afterwards, he left on some pretext, seemingly not wanting to spend an extra moment after completing his task.

Lin Yi couldn’t help but smile. He also left the Outer Sect Affairs Hall immediately. The moment he stepped out, a popup window suddenly appeared before his eyes.

“The Host has been hard at work in farming, ranking first in Spirit Rice harvest in the entire sect. You have been promoted from an Outer Sect Spirit Farmer to an Inner Sect Disciple. Truly a meteoric rise. You have gained the title [I Am Number One]..”
