The Path of Survivor begins with obtaining titles

After leaving the Liu Yun Sect Outer Sect, Lin Yi became very cautious. He quickly hastened his pace while clenching a stack of talisman templates in his pocket. As soon as he detected an enemy, he wouldn’t hesitate to throw dozens of them and then flee.

These were talisman templates he had assembled after careful consideration, including Raging Fire Talisman, Frost Charm, Smoke Talisman, Binding Charm, etc. Additionally, he had also prepared a poison powder he had developed himself, which could dumbfound the enemy instantly.

After entering the wilderness forest, some animals gathered around. Lin Yi took out monster beast meat from his package and distributed it to them.

These were the same animals he had fed before in order to level up his title of [Junior Dung Cleaner]. Currently, he was only wearing two titles, namely [Petty Survivor] (Second Tier) and [Junior Dung Cleaner] (Second Tier).

These two titles would assist his actions; the former would reduce his presence and Hatred Value, while the latter endowed him with affinity towards animals, ensuring he wouldn’t be attacked by them.

The reason he left one title slot empty was so that he could quickly equip the affiliated title [Burst Out] in a crisis. Once equipped, it would automatically consume Fury, allowing him to enter a berserk state and ignore any restrictions enforced on him by cultivators who were one great realm higher than him.

All along the way, Lin Yi did not attempt to erase the traces he left behind nor did he leave extra ones to deceive his enemies. After all, Zhang Yuan Cheng was naturally suspicious, and anything unusual was likely to arouse his suspicion.

After crossing a forest, he was nearing the peripheral region of the monster beast territory. There were not many monster beasts in this region, and they were all low-level creatures. Nevertheless, it was still a dangerous place filled with swarm attacks of monster beasts.

As Lin Yi continued to move forward, he also became more alert. He wasn’t going to let his guard down just because he was almost at his destination. Suddenly, a woman’s call for help came, “Help! Someone save me, I was collecting spiritual medicine in the mountain and was bitten by a monster beast, I can’t walk…’

“I have spirit stones on me, is there anyone willing to save me…”

The woman’s voice was extremely charming, implying her beauty. However, Lin Yi revealed a serious expression on his face and without any hesitation, turned and walked down a different path.

He was so close to the fringe area of the monster beast territory. It was unlikely for a woman to be here collecting medicine alone. Moreover, she deliberately mentioned that she had spirit stones. It was almost as if she had “Cultivator Jump” written on her face.

He suspected she was a novice robber cultivator. She didn’t even know how to pick a location, for anyone in this fringe area would be extremely cautious.

As he took a different path, two cultivators, one fat and one thin, emitting fluctuation of spiritual power appeared from the forest, surrounded him spot, and revealed a smile, “This gentleman…”

However, the two cultivators had barely spoken two words when suddenly a flash of light appeared before them. Then, a cloud of smoke rose, followed by fireballs, ice blades, and soil spikes attacking them relentlessly. They were disoriented and tried to escape, but the surrounding tree branches stretched out and bound them tightly.

By the time they managed to crawl out from the smoke covered in bruises, Lin Yi was nowhere to be seen. Both of them were extremely infuriated, “Beast! Have some decency, you could have at least let us finish speaking..

“Big Brother, this kid used a Smoke Talisman and even spilled pepper powder. Let’s chase him down and kill him.” One of the thinner cultivators said angrily as he rubbed the swelling on his head caused by the attack.

If they hadn’t activated their amulets in advance and gathered their spiritual power to fend off the attack, the volley of talismans could have inflicted severe wounds on them, as the contained power was much superior to what was typically available in the market.

“Chase what? He’s long gone. This kid casually throws powerful talismans as if they’re nothing. He’s indeed a fat sheep, but a cunning one too. Can’t you size people up properly?” The fat cultivator said grumpily.

The thin cultivator protested innocently, “He seemed so average, never thought he’d be so cunning… Big Brother, there’s something wrong, I… I feel like my whole body is getting hot…” Suddenly, his face turned red.

The fat cultivator’s expression changed dramatically, “This bastard even sprinkled aphrodisiac in the smoke…’

“Big Brother, what’s going on, did that man run away?” The woman who had earlier called for help hurried over at this point.

“Junior Sister, don’t come over here…” Both cultivators hastily warned her. The powder this man had spread seemed to be potent. They scrambled to take out Detoxification Pills from their pockets and started the detoxification process.

After a while, a figure hurried over. Seeing the traces of a fight, he stopped and cautiously scanned the surroundings. Dressed all in black, his face was entirely hidden, “Help! Someone save me! I was collecting medicinal herbs in the mountains, and was ambushed…and severely injured…’

The man in black slowly approached and saw a beautiful woman. However, before she could speak, a flash of sword light was seen, and her head was cut off immediately.

“Little Sister, you’re seeking death…” The two cultivators, on seeing this, were beside themselves with rage. They quickly rushed out and attacked the man in black.

However, the fat cultivator was killed swiftly. Seeing this, the thin cultivator immediately fell to his knees and pleaded for mercy, “Please spare me, sir. Please, spare me.”

“Have you seen this man pass by?” The man in black pulled out a portrait from his sleeve of a young man.

Upon seeing the portrait, the thin cultivator became angry and tried hitting out. But he quickly changed his expression and said, “Sir, may I leave if…l tell you? I-I’ll tell you, I’ll tell you. Yes, I’ve seen him. He’s a brute. Before we could finish speaking, he threw a bunch of talismans at us and then vanished…’

Before he could finish speaking, a sword light flew towards him, instantly killing him. The man in black sneered, “This kid’s really prudently timid. He ran off when faced with a Qi Refining Third Layer and two Qi Refining Second Layer fellows. What a waste.”

At this point, Lin Yi had arrived at the area where he planned to implement his trap and unexpectedly encountered robbery cultivators.

Although his true cultivation level was Qi Refining Fifth Level, and he had ample talismans to kill the two cultivators, he might later have Zhang Yuan

Cheng pursuing him. Naturally, he wouldn’t want to get entangled. So, he just threw out more than ten talismans and two bags of poison powder.

His goal was to obstruct, not kill. Otherwise, his hundreds of Great

Achievement Level talismans would easily squish these two to death.

He now started his preparations. His first move was to use the Cloud Rain Technique to soften the surrounding soil. Besides the wood element entanglement, the Binding Charm also had an earth element feature that could cause the opponents to sink into the ground, temporarily restricting their movements.

After a busy period, Lin Yi hided in the grass among the trees, acting as if he was laying an ambush for a monster beast. He was awaiting Zhang Yuan Cheng to take the bait. He had set some measures in his surroundings and didn’t worry about getting ambushed. Besides, he was under the protection of

Foundation Building Grand Master Li Yuan Qing who was lurking nearby.

Furthermore, knowing Zhang Yuan Cheng’s narrow-minded personality, Lin Yi expected him to arrive, pleading for spirit stones. Now that he was attempting to kill him, he would definitely mock him first. This mock would satisfy his twisted psyche immensely..
