The Path of Survivor begins with obtaining titles

Chapter 288 - 169: Teaching Swordsmanship_2

As a Golden Core member of the Xuan Yin Sect, he could have several dark red evil spirits, and the thought filled him with anticipation.

But, he was self-aware, with his current strength at the Foundation Building Level Five, it was utterly impossible to exorcise these spirits from the hand of the Golden Core Real Person of Xuan Yin Sect. Had it not been for Master Golden Sword Zen Ren this time, he wouldn’t have had an opportunity.

Soon, the second pop-up emerged before Lin Yi. With the “Little Compassion Little Mercy” title, he gained 200 experience points. His previous third-level title already had more than 200 experience points, and now it was directly upgraded to the fourth level, with an additional 100 experience points.

This made his face more excited, my goodness, previously gaining twenty or thirty experience points at a time was enough to make him happy. This single evil spirit gave him 200 points instantly.

If he exorcises the second dark red evil spirit and gains another 200 points, it will be more than 300 points in total, not far from upgrading to the fifth level.

“Look at the happy look on our junior brother’s face, he really does good deeds wholeheartedly, accumulating merit.” Seeing Lin Yi’s excitement, Zhou Yun Feng couldn’t help but laugh.

Li Yuan Qing couldn’t help but add: “In the future, whenever I go out to slay evil spirits or villains, I’ll take the junior brother with me and let him do some good and exorcise them.”

“Third senior brother, it still depends on the junior brother’s willingness. Just like this time, you encountered the Golden Core Real Person from Xuan Yin Sect, it could be very dangerous. You can’t just drag him into it forcibly.” Zhou Yun Feng reminded him.

Golden Sword Zen Ren also said, “Let Lin Yi cultivate himself well within the sect for the time being. The news about valuable spirit grass in the Dan God Secret Realm has been spread, and many sects will be watching him.”

In the Dan God Secret Realm, precious spiritual grasses like Longevity Grass and Sky Herb are desired by many sects and cultivators. Even Golden Core Real Persons and Nascent Soul True Monarchs may reach the end of their lifespan and still can’t break through.

At this time, having a lifespan extended by a few decades may seem not that much, but for cultivators nearing the end of their lifespan, it’s like a lifesaver.

Being able to live for a few more decades, even if there is still no hope of breaking through, can at least bring some comfort, and naturally, no one would choose to die early.

Up to now, only the Dan God Secret Realm produces Longevity Grass among all the dangerous secret places. For a thousand years, no one has been able to get it from the Giant Spirit Tree Herb Garden. Now that an exception has appeared, it will naturally be targeted by many cultivators.

Li Yuan Qing nodded, Lin Yi’s possession of the valuable spirit grass had given the elder brother a new hope for further cultivation, but at a cost with his freedom.

The pity is, he’s still in the Foundation Building Realm and entirely powerless against a Golden Core Real Person. The previous words of “whoever bullies you can come to me” has turned into a joke.

He felt that he had to cultivate even harder, reaching Golden Core as early as possible so he can better help his junior brother out of the predicament.

“Many thanks to Master and senior brothers for assisting me to exorcise the evil spirit.” After Lin Yi came back to his senses, he heard their conversation and thanked them gratefully.

He couldn’t wait to cultivate well in the sect because it was dangerous outside. He could imagine that if he had been captured by the Golden Core Real Person of the Xuan Yin Sect this time, what would have happened to him.

Even if they learned the secret of the Dan God Secret Realm from him, they wouldn’t let him go. He could be made into an evil puppet.

Of course, although he has some secrets, like the Berserk State of the Title, which ignores any inner restriction effects higher than his own realm, or he could directly enter the Dan God Secret Realm.

However, escape may work for a while but not forever. He would reveal his trump card, making others more eager to get his secrets.

“No need to be polite, this is also your compensation, continue to exorcise the next one.” Golden Sword Zen Ren waved his hand with a faint smile.

Lin Yi took out another dark red evil spirit from the bottle and beat it until it was only left with a breath, before exorcising it with the Rebirth Charm.

The previous spirit was in the form of a middle-aged man, but this one, after exorcism, revealed a transparent figure of a woman.

She looked around, showing a sense of being out of touch with the world, thanked Lin Yi with a deep bow in the end.

Then, staring vigorously at Lin Yi, as if he wanted to etch his face into his memory, he finally left a beaming smile and dissolved into starlight.

Lin Yi shook his head and sighed. Given the choice, no one would want to become an evil spirit. Even on the verge of death or complete annihilation, no cultivator would be willing to turn into such a monster.

Not a single evil spirit harnessed by the Xuan Yin Sect was obtained normally. They have all been acquired through utterly ruthless tactics.

After the exorcism, a pop-up window appeared once again before his eyes, almost identical to the one he had previously encountered with the same reward.

“Thank you, master, thank you to both of my senior brothers. Today I have truly exorcised two such powerful evil spirits, a thought I couldn’t dare to entertain before.” Lin Yi gratefully bowed. Normally he would have had to wait until he attained the Golden Core before he got the chance to exorcise an evil spirit this powerful.

“Junior brother, don’t be like this, if you hadn’t asked the master to intervene, we wouldn’t have known what would happen in Jade Peak City.” Zhou Yun Feng laughed and waved his hand.

At that moment, Gold Sword Zen Ren calmly added, “Lin Yi, I have some business to attend to. Before I go, I need to teach you the two sword arts of Wind and Thunder. Practice these yourself and if there’s anything you don’t understand, ask your elder brother. I’ll guide you further when I get back.”

Then, in a flash, he appeared before Lin Yi, gently touching his forehead.

Suddenly, the knowledge of the two sword techniques rushed into his mind like madness, even including the cultivation experience of Gold Sword Zen Ren.

However, the knowledge of these two sword arts was so vast that just a light tap from Gold Sword Zen Ren brought a torrent of information. He had no choice but to sit cross-legged in the hall and carefully absorb and comprehend it all.

“Yun Feng, stay with Yi. I’ll be back soon, Yuan Qing, come with me.” Seeing Lin Yi earnestly comprehending his sword art, Gold Sword Zen Ren instructed Zhou Yun Feng.

“Take care, Master,” Zhou Yun Feng knew what his master was about to do, so he fist saluted and saw him off.

A faint smile appeared on Gold Sword Zen Ren’s face. “Relax, I’ll be back soon,” he said, before mounting the Golden Sword with Li Yuan Qing and departing from Golden Sword Peak.

Lin Yi spent almost an entire day in Golden Sword Hall, gradually gaining profound insight into the two arts. They were absolutely exquisite. However, to attain the power Gold Sword Zen Ren displayed with them, he was still far off.

At this point, he slowly opened his eyes, and a prompt box immediately appeared, “[Thunder Condemnation Sword Art] Experience +1, [Wind Element Sword Art] Experience +1.”

A surprised delight appeared on his face. He hurriedly opened the panel of achievements. As expected, both sword techniques were now listed, albeit at the entry level.

The teaching of the master was indeed different. After understanding, he was directly able to advance to beginner level in the sword arts.

As the saying goes, “Master leads you to the door, the rest is up to you.” With the master’s guidance, it made it instantly easier for him to enter the doorway of these techniques.

Otherwise, he might have had to, like with the Divine Shadow Dharma or Technique of Transforming Cloud into Wind, slowly comprehend it himself.

Lin Yi stood up, looked around, and saw Zhou Yun Feng, who had been accompanying him. He bowed in gratitude, “Thank you for the protection, elder brother.”

“It was nothing, junior brother. How fares your sword art comprehension?” Zhou Yun Feng waved his hand lightly and then smiled and asked.

“The cultivation experience given by master is incredibly helpful. I already have some insight.” Lin Yi summoned his Wind Thunder Sword from his Dantian, forming a simple sword gesture.

Suddenly, a hint of purple lightning flashed on the sword body, it darted around the Golden Sword Hall at the speed of lightning.

“Good, junior brother, attack me.” Seeing this, Zhou Yun Feng’s eyes lit up, he assumed a defensive posture, and said to Lin Yi.

Lin Yi nodded lightly, used the sword technique to control the Flying Sword, and swiftly attacked Zhou Yun Feng. The Flying Sword carried the power of thunder and lightning, striking heavily on the protective light shield and immediately lightning flashed in all directions.
