The Path of Survivor begins with obtaining titles - Chapter 434:

Chapter 434: Chapter 229: Heading to Xuan Tian Realm_1

Time flew by quickly, and a year passed. It had been over two years since Lin Yi had achieved Golden Core. The Pill Immortal Master had guided him several times in the formation and alchemy dao.

Not only did he gain many insights, but also, through the [Scholar]title, he ‘sheared’ quite a bit of cultivation levels from the master.

Now, his realm had reached Golden Core Second Layer, and he was very close to breaking through to the third layer.

After achieving Golden Core, his title of the Path of Survivor was upgraded to the third stage, [Trend of Great Conservation], and the realm concealment increased by one layer, becoming seven layers.

The increased layer of concealment didn’t take effect at that time. It could only activate once his realm increased.

And now, when his realm was elevated to the Golden Core Second Layer, this layer of concealment was activated, keeping his current realm still at Foundation Establishment Fifth Layer, avoiding unnecessary troubles caused by advancing too quickly.

The [Scholar] title doesn’t only allow him to gain cultivation levels from the mentor through learning, it also enables him to acquire related course experience.

Therefore, while learning the formation and alchemy dao from the Pill Immortal Master, he was also acquiring experience in these two skills.

The difficulty of enhancing spirit-level alchemy art, compared to high-level alchemy, increased again.

Although, by refining Gathering Mysterious Pills which increased the cultivation levels of Nascent Soul Realm, his alchemy skills had promoted from high-level to spirit-level, he was unable to obtain the fourth stage spirit-level alchemy title.

To upgrade the title, he had to refine the Infant Breaking Pill, which was only slightly less complicated than Longevity Pill and Heaven Pill.

The normal refining time for the Gathering Mysterious Pill is about thirteen days. The [Expert Alchemist] title he holds now only corresponds to high-level elixir.

So, the effect it produces isn’t significant, and can only shorten one or two days of time.

Even if calculated by eleven days, he could not refine the Gathering Mysterious Pill three times a month, meaning he could only gain at most twenty or thirty points of alchemy experience a year.

Under normal circumstances, if he refines once a month, even with the skill-upgrade bonus of the leveling-up title, it still takes him more than five years to elevate the spirit-level alchemy art from beginner to proficient level, and this is based on the prerequisite that every refining attempt is successful.

However, with the [Scholar]title, it was different. Each time he received guidance about the elixir, he could gain some experience from it.

As of now, the spirit-level alchemy art had been promoted from beginner to proficient.

As for the formation, it had been promoted from the initial stage to the intermediate stage.

The previous learning title could only enhance cultivation levels. Now besides cultivation levels, it can also enhance various skills, including spell experience.

In this year, Lin Yi also found some villains within the Liu Yun Sect based on the information provided by Zhang Fu Guang. He killed these evil persons, who had caused resentment from those they murdered, and gained rewards of mercy value.

From this, it could be confirmed that the acquisition of mercy value had no identity restrictions. As long as a revenge was carried out from a grudge, he could gain mercy value, even if both parties were ordinary people.

Of course, the revenge refers to innocent people being harmed, not evil people harming each other. That would be what they deserved.

Unfortunately, the mercy value would not be awarded based on the number of victims. It seemed to be based on the degree of resentment.

Back in the Paper Shadow Sect, he had in total gained fifteen points of mercy value. He gained six points for the bone resentment outside the secret chamber.

The resentment formed by those who were tortured in the secret chamber gave him a total of nine points.

Those who were imprisoned in the secret chamber were tortured endlessly, filled with suffering. The resentment formed after their death was very intense.

The resentment of those who had long been dead, plus the pressure from the formation, naturally caused their resentment to gradually dissipate.

Later, in the village of the Canghua Sect, where Shen Bao Hua killed people, he only gained three points of mercy value. The time was a little too long ago.

Ordinary people have no cultivation levels, so the resentment they create is naturally weak. But if it’s cultivators, it would be different.

It’s just that, it’s more difficult to find evil people with cultivator identities.

Not to mention, his fellow disciple Master of Bi Hai, has been keeping an eye on him. It’s not excluded that other people also target him. Therefore, he must be careful in the Heng Yuan World.

However, there are too many restrictions in the Heng Yuan World. The Xuan Tian Realm is different. He can completely adopt the identity of Pedestrian A and start some plans in that Cultivation World.

When he found out about Xuan Tian Realm before, Lin Yi had not yet achieved Golden Core and had just accepted Zhang Dao Xuan as his master. His strength was insufficient, so naturally, he didn’t have the qualifications to go to the Xuan Tian Realm.

At that time, the Pill Immortal Master proposed a requirement, that only with his achievement in alchemy dao could he have a chance.

And now, he has achieved Golden Core, and his alchemy skills have reached spirit level. It’s time to take a tour of another Cultivation World.

Lin Yi took some of the elixirs he had refined himself, mainly Foundation Building Pills and Golden Elixirs.

Although he now has the backing of the Dan God Secret Realm, he still has to use spirit stones to buy alchemy materials, and the materials for spirit level elixirs are very expensive.

He can’t rely entirely on the [Scholar]title to ‘shear’ the Pill Immortal Master’s alchemy skills and cultivation. He must also refine pills himself.

Although the experience brought by the learning title can fully turn into his abilities, he feels that there must be some defects in it. Therefore, his alchemy plan is indispensable.
