The Path of Survivor begins with obtaining titles - Chapter 299

Chapter 299: Chapter 175: Dan God Secret Realm Reopens_1

Translator: 549690339

After the Feng Yu Cheng incident, Lin Yi re-entered an endless cycle of cultivation, taking at least forty hours of classes within the Liu Yun Sect every month, which translated into 20 cultivation points.

Additionally, with the occasional guidance from Pill Immortal Master, his cultivation level could almost be raised by thirty to forty points each month. Considering his 500 points of cultivation at the Foundation Building Fifth Layer level, he could break through in just over a year.

Of course, such easy cultivation days won’t last long. Once he reaches the Foundation Building Seventh Level and enters the late stage, the class time he needs to increase a single point of cultivation will undoubtedly multiply:

Besides attending classes, Lin Yi spends his remaining time mainly focusing on practicing swordsmanship and alchemy, with Technique of Transforming Cloud into Wind and Divine Shadow Dharma as auxiliary. He also squeezes in some time to practice intermediate talisman craftmanship.

The Gathering Yuan Pill that he refines, under the 65% increase in Pill Refining Speed from his title, saves a considerable amount of time – about two days – to produce a pill.

According to his plan, he needs to refine at least five furnaces per month, which means spending ten days. With forty hours of class time and waiting time also equivalent to four to five days, this sums up to roughly half of the month.

Attending classes and alchemy alone take up half a month. After factoring in rest and farming time, he only has about ten days left for swordsmanship and other cultivation technique practices, which is still bearable.

The time flies quickly during cultivation, and in the blink of an eye, more than a year passed. Lin Yi’s cultivation at the Foundation Building Fifth Layer has reached perfection. With the enlightenment opportunity offered by [Grain Wisdom from One’s Mistakes], he successfully breaks through to the sixth layer.

Now he has reached the peak of the mid-stage Foundation Building. The next breakthrough will take him to the late stage of Foundation Building.

Over the year, some titles and cultivation techniques have also been upgraded. First is [Elite Survivor], which rose from the first stage to the second tier. He obtained this title after reaching the Foundation Building level. Only after reaching the sixth tier in Foundation Building did he achieve this upgrade.

His Presence and Hatred Value data both increased by 5%, reducing to 25%. His Cultivation Speed increased by 10%, reaching 60%. His Realm Concealment also added a layer, now hiding five realms.

The upgrade of the title “Path of Survivor” happened just before he broke through to the sixth layer of Foundation Building. Consequently, his breakthrough was outright concealed, and his outward cultivation level still appeared to be at the first layer of Foundation Building.

However, the virtual identity still remains +1 and doesn’t level up with the title. Judging from this situation, if the [Elite Survivor] title upgrades to its highest level of the third tier and doesn’t increase, the upgrade can only wait until the next phase.

The corresponding title of “Path of Survivor” – “I’m showing my cards” – has its effects upgraded as well. Now Presence is +25%, with additional damage, +50%, and 5 extra realms revealed.

This means that according to the normal nine-layer realm perfection situation, his real cultivation level is the Foundation Building Sixth Layer. Once he wears this title, his manifest cultivation can reach the Golden Core Second Layer.

Although his actual ability can’t reach the Golden Core Realm, merely revealing a Golden Core aura possesses enough deterrence. Even cultivators at the same Golden Core Realm would not dare to attack casually.

Moreover, apart from his own aura, the power and aura of all the spells he releases have reached the Golden Core Realm. This can be used entirely to intimidate people or act as a senior expert.

Since Lin Yi was unsure if the array in the Cave Mansion could conceal the aura of the Golden Core Realm, he did not attempt to wear the “showing my cards” title.

Furthermore, this place is Golden Sword Peak, and Gold Sword Zen Ren is in closed-door cultivation here. He must be careful and cautious.

Next is [Training Expert] and [Student], both upgraded to the second tier. The title of [Little Spiritual Farmer], which was already upgraded to the third tier, may break through to the next phase by planting top-grade medicinal fields at Golden Sword Peak.

Other than these, other titles did not level up because during the previous six to seven years, he was almost entirely engrossed in alchemy and naturally overlooked the upgrading of other titles.

As for cultivation techniques and spells, both types of swordsmanship have reached proficiency level, and so has Nine Transformations of Liu Yun.

In terms of skills, high-level alchemy has upgraded from beginner to proficient level. Although he refines only 5 furnaces a month and around 60 furnaces throughout the year, thanks to the effects of the [Training Expert] title, he has an increase of 50% in spells and Skills progress.

In other words, every 2 furnaces he refines, he gains 3 points of experience. With 60 furnaces, he could gain 90 points of experience. Naturally, over a year, he could level up.

For cultivators at the Foundation Building Realm, each time they close up for cultivation, it is usually calculated in years. One year is far too short.

For subsequent time, Lin Yi plans to continue cultivating until the next opening of the Dan God Secret Realm, which is twelve years later.

Because once the Cave Mansion opens, the next time the Secret Realm appears, it must be the maximum of twenty years. Now, eight years have passed.

According to the opening time of the two cultivation worlds mentioned by Pill Immortal Master, the next time should still be on the side of the Heng Yuan World. By then, he can fish in troubled waters in there, continuing to kill cultivators of rogue paths in order to acquire Virtue Points and Goodman Value.

The rewards obtained from cultivators of the rogue paths are much higher than those from killing villains in the mundane world. Moreover, there’s no danger in the Secret Realm.
