Translator: 549690339
Senior Brother Zhou Yun Feng of the Golden Sword Lineage slowly stepped forward, looking at the Sky Herb held in the hands of his two juniors, full of beauty and radiating a spirit-filled glow. He couldn’t help but reach out and touch it.
What he sensed was a powerful vitality, as if it could allow the damaged foundation to regrow and fully recover.
In the eyes of others, his injured foundation meant he could no longer form the Golden Core and his Cultivation journey was to be interrupted, yet he seemed to carry himself with a manner of calm indifference.
What these people did not know was that enduring such a condition required a level of acceptance. Could daily self-deprecation and regret repair his foundation?
However, now, before these two Sky Herbs, his previously calm demeanor seemed to be shattered as tears welled up in his eyes while touching the Sky Herb.
Zhou Yun Feng walked up to Lin Yi, looking at this Spirit Farmer whom he had personally promoted to an Inner Sect Disciple. Before, he hadn’t expected Lin Yi to obtain precious Spirit Grass in the Secret Realm, assuming that if he could merely protect himself, that would have been good enough.
But now, on this person he had no hope for, he found a chance at rebirth. He bowed deeply with his fist over his heart, “Lin Yi, thank you for risking danger to obtain this Sky Herb that can assist in my rebirth in the Secret Realm.
Please accept my gratitude. I, Zhou Yun Feng, will repay this grace that you’ve bestowed.’
Li Yuan Qing, Qi Jing Yu, and the others also bowed towards Lin Yi again. They had witnessed their senior brother’s calm demeanor and knew that, during the unnoticed periods, this senior brother certainly suffered in silence.
After all, it was unbearable for everyone to see the most promising candidate to break through to the Golden Core in Liu Yun Sect suddenly become semi-disabled, incapable of forming the Golden Core due to his damaged foundation. If this happened to someone with inferior mental fortitude, they would have surely gone mad.
Lin Yi returned the bow, smiling, “Uncle Master Zhou, you give me too much credit. I was very cautious and did not encounter much danger in the Secret Realm. This Sky Herb is the result of an unexpected opportunity. Using it to aid you in mending your foundation, and thereby enhancing the power of Golden Sword Peak, I believe I haven’t wasted this precious quota to the Secret Realm.”
At this point, Gold Sword Zen Ren, wearing a faint smile, said, “It seems the title of ‘uncle master’ is going to change. Lin Yi, I’m considering taking you as my direct disciple. Do you accept?”
Although he anticipated this, hearing these words from Gold Sword Zen Ren,
Lin Yi couldn’t help but feel somewhat thrilled. He didn’t hesitate and bowed with his hand clenched, “Master, please accept my bow.”
Although he was given the title “Golden Finger”, reaching the Golden Core is only a matter of time; it will not encounter any insurmountable bottlenecks.
However, having a Golden Core Real Person providing instruction can expedite his cultivation.
Moreover, becoming a direct disciple allows access to more resources, and the possibility to learn from the swordsmanship of the Liu Yun Sect’s most powerful Golden Core Real Person. This is an irresistible temptation for any Qi Refinement or Foundation Building Cultivator.
Zhou Yun Fengs face broke into a broad smile, ‘IA few years back, I was joking about waiting for the day you would call me and your Junior Brother Yuan Qing ‘senior brother’. I didn’t expect it to happen so soon. Little junior brother, remember to correct your address in the future.”
Seven years ago, he was promoted from an Outer Sect Spirit Farmer to an Inner Sect member. And now, seven years later, this Lin Yi has become a direct disciple of a Golden Core Real Person.
“Junior brother greets the senior brothers and sisters.” Lin Yi also quickly fist-greeted back.
“Hello, little junior brother.” Li Yuan Qing and the others also greeted back. Even the usually serious Li Yuan Qing wearing a smile on his face.
Gold Sword Zen Ren spoke calmly, “Three days from now, I will hold an official discipleship ceremony for you at the Golden Sword Hall and introduce you to your other senior brothers and sisters. Leave these two stalks of Sky Herb here. You can take the Longevity Grass with you.”
“In these few days, ponder over what reward you want. As long as it’s within my ability, I will grant it.”
“Master, keeping the Longevity Grass is useless for me, it’s better that you handle it. As for the reward, disciple would like a Flying Sword to prepare for the Foundation Establishment.” Lin Yi clenched his fists and said.
With his current alchemy level, he couldn’t refine the Longevity Pill. Keeping it would be a waste. Moreover, he is now at the Foundation Building Realm, and as his cultivation level improves, his lifespan can reach 250 years. There is no immediate need to increase his lifespan.
Now that the Dan God Secret Realm has concluded, he needed to devote some time to cultivation and naturally needed a life-bound Flying Sword. Gold Sword Zen Ren, famed for his mastery in swordsmanship, would have many insights into Flying Swords.
After all, some flying sword materials are not available for purchase even if he has Spirit Stones. However, a Golden Core Real Person would be able to obtain some precious flying sword materials.
Upon hearing Lin Yi’s words, Gold Sword Zen Ren jokingly said, “It seems your little junior brother is confident in the success of his Foundation
Establishment. Okay, I will prepare a suitable Flying Sword for you.”
“Thank you, Master. This disciple will take his leave now.” Lin Yi clenched his fist and said. After spending a month in the Secret Realm, he still wasn’t sure about Zhi Ling’s situation.
“Okay, you can go.” Gold Sword Zen Ren casually waved his hand.
After Lin Yi had left, Gold Sword Zen Ren slowly collected the three herb stalks. Seeing the concerned looks on his disciples’ faces, he said, “Although we now have the Sky Herb, refining it into a pill is extremely difficult. And we only have two Sky Herbs, two chances. Even the Dan Hall Master, Qing Mu Zen Ren, might not be confident in successfully refining the pill..”
