As if there were an invisible but enormous allure, urging one to pick and taste it.

He tried to reach out and touch it, but was blocked by an invisible barrier. It seemed that with his current alchemy skill, he was not yet qualified to collect this Longevity Grass.

He guessed that he was not yet qualified to collect any spirit grass in this entire Giant Spirit Tree Herb Garden.

Since this deep garden corresponded to the Nascent Soul Realm, he possibly needed to take his high-order alchemy skill up another step to have a chance.

Up till now, there has been no news about the Sky Herb that he previously handed over to Master Golden Sword Zen Ren for refining into pills. If Senior Brother Zhou Yun Feng’s foundation was restored, a celebration would take place all over Liu Yun Sect.

After all, Zhou Yun Feng was the Foundation Building cultivator in the sect with the greatest potential to condense a Golden Core.

With his foundation now fully replenished, his chances of successfully condensing a Golden Core might rise significantly.

It was estimated that Master Golden Sword was looking for a Nascent Soul True Monarch to refine a Heaven Pill. However, most Nascent Soul True Monarchs were in seclusion for their cultivation, aiming for the Deification stage. To ask them to leave their retreat to refine pills wouldn’t be easy.

Of course, given Master Golden Sword’s reputation in Liu Yun Sect, the venerable Nascent Soul Ancestor of the sect would not reject his request. It must be that the ancestor was still in seclusion.

The lifespan of a Foundation Building cultivator is two hundred and fifty years.

Allegedly, Zhou Yun Feng suffered a damaged foundation when he entered a secret realm after achieving Foundation Building Great Perfection at the age of over one hundred. To date, this event happened fifty to sixty years ago.

Considering Zhou Yun Feng was once said to be the cultivator with the greatest potential to condense a golden core, it is estimated that his age at the time of achieving Foundation Building Great Perfection was less than one hundred and twenty years. Master Golden Sword had condensed a Golden Core soon after he turned one hundred years old.

From this, it could be inferred that Zhou Yun Feng was less than one hundred and eighty years old and had at least seventy to live before reaching his lifespan limit.

Therefore, there was no rush to refine Heaven Pill. After all, the success rate and quality of pills refined by a Nascent Soul True Monarch would be superior, and the foundation could be restored to the greatest extent possible.

After walking around the garden, Lin Yi noted that although the garden covered a considerable space, it contained a relatively low number of the cultivated spirit grasses. After all, a single plant of precious medicinal herbs like Sky Herb or Longevity Grass could take up a whole field.

Afterwards, he bid farewell to the Green Giant Python and returned to the Golden Sword Peak Cave Mansion with Zhi Ling.

Having completed the trial of the Dan God legacy, he was relieved of a huge burden from within, allowing him to fully relax and prepare for a few days’ rest.

At this time, he found several sound transmission talismans in the courtyard of the cave mansion. He took them all and activated them one by one.

Most of them were messages from his Senior Brother and Sisters. However, one was sent by Xu Zhi Wu of Qing Yun City through Zhang Fu Guang.

The message said Xu Zhi Wu recently heard about something that may relate to him while looking for information on certain evildoers. Apparently, someone used his name to commit some acts in Qing Shi City.

He was still gathering specifics to the information, but he sent a Sound Transmission Talisman to ask whether Lin Yi had ever killed a Flower Thief in Qing Shi City.

On hearing this message via talisman, Lin Yi pondered. He remembered that Qing Shi City was the destination of the first external mission he took after being promoted to the Inner Sect, where he was to kill the Flower Thief.

Because the Divine Shadow Dharma and the Paper Man were obtained from this Flower Thief, he remembered this matter vividly.

If someone was to impersonate him, the only possibilities were the Immortal Master who was stationed there back then or the two cultivators who were invited.

After a while , he sent back a Sound Transmission Talisman confirming that he indeed did kill a cultivator who was a Flower Thief. He asked Xu Zhi Wu to send another message when he found out more information.

In the following days of rest, Lin Yi also planned for his future cultivation. After a good rest, he planned to study swordsmanship with Master Golden Sword.

Others started learning swordsmanship right after they reached the

Foundation Building stage. He, however, had already reached the Foundation Building Fifth Layer and his Sword Control Technique was proficient, yet he had not even started learning swordsmanship.

Later, he would go to the Secret Realm and follow Pill Immortal Master to learn alchemy while asking whether this incarnation is a clone or the divine intent.

If the true form of Dan God Zhang Dao Xuan had ascended to the Upper Realm a thousand years ago, his cultivation level by now would have long surpassed the Deification Realm and reached the Refining Void, or even the Body Fusion Realm.

The stage of Deification Realm is when the Nascent Soul gradually transforms into a Primordial Spirit, which can split into myriad. As long as a shred of Primordial Spirit survives, there’s the chance of rebirth through body possession.

If he could get hold of the true form cultivation level of Pill Immortal Master, that would be the best, for even if at the Deification Realm, he could continue to fleece until reaching the Nascent Soul.

Even a shred of Deification Realm cultivation is probably equivalent to the first or second level of the Foundation Establishment.

The subsequent plan of cultivation is to consider focusing on swordsmanship and alchemy, while for cultivation level advancement, he’d have to continue fleecing.

However, under the circumstance of the Golden Core Real Person not preaching the law, his only option would be the Foundation Building Late Stage. Once his cultivation level breaks through to the late stage, he probably won’t be able to fleece that much, unless the [Student] title further upgrades.

Lin Yi was quite open about this. He’d fleece if he could, but if not, he’d cultivate himself. He was not the kind of person finding it easy from simplicity to luxury, yet finding it difficult to go from luxury to simplicity.

In the next few days, Lin Yi didn’t consider things like cultivation or alchemy at all. He and Zhi Ling lazed under the sun in the courtyard, eating delicious food, feeling quite contented.

He also sensed Zhi Ling’s happiness when he was accompanying her. He had been so busy with cultivation and alchemy, he barely had any time to play with Zhi Ling.

Although in the Secret Realm, the Green Giant Python had always been with Zhi Ling, their relationship was more like that of an elder and a junior, not playmates.

It seemed he really needed to find a friend for Zhi Ling. There were many Monster Beasts in the Dan God Secret Realm, but probably not what Zhi Ling would like.

Lin Yi couldn’t help but think of Fire Feather. In the years since he passed the Dan God heritage test, he hadn’t taken on any spiritual pet caretaking missions. Fire Fierce didn’t contact him either, asking him to take care of spiritual pets.

After some thinking, he decided to visit Senior Brother Huo Lie and try to bring Fire Feather back to his side.

Fire Fierce’s previous moves made him mistakenly think that once Fire Feather was with him, it was destined to be killed. So, he let Fire Feather stay with Fire Fierce.

With that in mind, he let Zhi Ling play by herself, and he headed on his own using the Sword Control Technique to the Raging Fire Peak. When he reached Fire Fierce’s cave mansion, despite shouting from outside the Protective Array, there was no reply.

Upon seeing this, Lin Yi took out Fire Fierce’s Sound Transmission Talisman, initiated it, after which the Talisman flew into the sky and then came back, making its way through the Protective Array into the cave mansion.

He shook his head. The Talisman first flew outward and then back, indicative of one possibility – Fire Fierce’s location had exceeded the range of the Talisman, and thus it flew back to the cave mansion.

At the Ferry Platform of Raging Fire Peak, he asked one disciple and found out that Fire Fierce had gone out for several years. It seemed he had gone somewhere to cultivate the fire elemental cultivation technique, so he temporarily gave up.

Before he returned to the Golden Sword Peak Cave Mansion, Lin Yi noticed a Sound Transmission Talisman flying towards him. After triggering it and listening to the message, his face became stern. It seemed the rumors were indeed true.

He changed direction, heading toward the Outer Sect of the Liu Yun Sect, and swiftly reached the outskirts of Qing Yun City with his sword control skill.

Seeing Lin Yi arriving by sword and wearing the Liu Yun Sect Identity Plaque, a few disciples guarding the city hastily bowed, “Disciple pays respects to Uncle Master.”

Lin Yi nodded slightly and slowly walked into Qing Yun City. He came to the tea house mentioned in the message and met Xu Zhi Wu and Zhang Fu Guang in a private room.

“Greetings, Foundation Building cultivator, it’s been years since we last met, and you’ve already successfully reached the Foundation Establishment stage,” Zhang Fu Guang sensed the strong aura from Lin Yi and quickly bowed in salute. He could hardly believe that Lin Yi had achieved Foundation Establishment in only a few years.

“Greetings, Master Lin,” Xu Zhi Wu also showed surprise on his face and bowed deeply. He was pleased as having a Foundation Building cultivator to support them made their tasks easier.

“Sit, please. This matter, Brother Xu, is it really as you described?” Lin Yi waved his hand and said in a deep voice.

Xu Zhi Wu said categorically, “Master Lin, I’ve personally been to Qing Shi City to investigate, and this matter is indeed true…”
