The Path of Survivor Begins With Obtaining Titles

 

Upon hearing this, Elder Peng was somewhat astonished and couldn’t help but ask, “Oh, what is so precious about this token?”

“I seem to feel that there is a fierce spirit full of malevolent energy sealed within it,” Lin Yi answered truthfully.

Yuan Qingquan and Elder Wei standing nearby were both somewhat surprised. The token was personally refined by Elder Peng, and others could only sense the aura of slaughter from it, unable to detect the fierce spirit within.

Elder Peng laughed heartily, satisfied as he spoke, “Hahaha, that just proves I haven’t given the token to the wrong person. If you couldn’t sense it, then what I gave you would just be an ordinary token.”

“Now that you have sensed it, keep it. You may use it for a hundred years, after which someone will collect it back. Consider it a reward for Qinglian City’s twenty years of peace. If you probe with your Divine Sense, you’ll find out how to use it.”

Afterwards, he flicked a strand of Spiritual Power from his fingertip onto the token. The token emitted a glow, a part of which entered Lin Yi’s body.

Lin Yi suddenly felt a certain connection between himself and the token.

Yuan Qingquan also smiled, “Eastern Daoist Friend, keep it. Elder Peng is one of the few Integration Cultivators with the strongest combat power among our human race. He was previously stationed in Demon-Slaying City for thousands of years, and the number of Integration Demons that met their end at his hands is five or six. He has turned a portion of their Primordial Spirits into several tokens.”

“When you encounter a crisis, you can release the Tiger Demon Spirit inside it to repel enemies. However, it consumes a large amount of Spiritual Power, and with your Divinity Cultivation, you won’t be able to last very long.”

“Ah, it’s a pity that our human race also has Integration Cultivators falling. It is not something glorious. It’s only by stepping on the corpses of our comrades that we can kill these beings,” Elder Peng sighed deeply.

Lin Yi responded with solemn respect, bowing deeply to Elder Peng, “Thank you, Elder Peng, for your generous gift. I will not misuse this token.”

“When it’s time to use it, just use it. Don’t be so sentimental. You are a person Elder Peng Tianwu admires. Whoever dares to provoke you is making an enemy of me,” Elder Peng glared as he spoke with a voice like a great bell.

“Yes, Elder,” Lin Yi nodded. Fortunately, it wasn’t in his actual body that he ascended; otherwise, based on the Law of Survival, he simply wouldn’t have used the Power of Decay from before and wouldn’t have received this gift from Elder Peng.

With this token, he could avoid many troubles. Although the usage period was only a hundred years, by that time, he should have established a firm foothold in Tai Xuan Divine City.

“With the token, you may depart for Tai Xuan Divine City at any time. You don’t need to report to us afterwards. Inside Tai Xuan Divine City, you don’t need to be too cautious. If someone provokes you, just fight back. This is a world where strength is revered,” Yuan Qingquan advised at last.

“Right, just release the tiger if you can’t beat them,” Elder Peng added.

The fair-skinned Cultivator also stated unwillingly, “If you feel uncomfortable in Tai Xuan City, just return to Qinglian City. Cultivating with me would be the same.” ℝÅℕοВÈ𝓢

“Thank you, City Lord, and thank you Elder Peng, Elder Wei. I will keep your advice in mind,” Lin Yi nodded, bowed deeply with clasped fists, and then slowly left the hall.

The two Hall Masters of Flying Spirit Hall waiting at the door approached as they saw Lin Yi coming out, “Eastern Daoist Friend, how did it go with the City Lord?”

Lin Yi smiled and didn’t conceal anything as he spoke, “The City Lord has reported my military achievements to Tai Xuan Spirit Palace and also permitted me to head to Tai Xuan Divine City on my own. Hall Masters, I’ll trouble you to inform the Spirit City Guards that there’s no need to come to Qinglian Spirit City.”

This matter couldn’t be concealed, so it was better to say it now. He would depart today to catch them off-guard. Even if Zhao Yingchang tipped them off, it would take time for the information to reach the Spirit City Guards.

Moreover, considering the distribution of the Teleportation Arrays, there are several routes to Tai Xuan Divine City. Even if someone wanted to ambush him halfway, it would be quite difficult.

Zhao Yingchang’s expression changed slightly as he said with puzzlement, “Why would they suddenly allow you to go to Tai Xuan Divine City on your own? The Spirit City Guards will arrive here in at most a month. Eastern Daoist Friend, you might as well wait a little longer; there’s no need to hurry.”

Just then, the hall doors slowly closed. Seeing this, the two Hall Masters quickly stepped forward to inquire, “Why has the hall door closed? We haven’t seen the City Lord yet.”

“After the City Lord and the Elders met with Eastern Daoist Friend, they have all left. You may return,” the guard at the door said, expressionless.

“Alas, let’s head back,” Li Qinglin sighed, realizing how difficult it truly was for Divinity Cultivators like themselves to get an audience with the City Lord.

After returning to the Flying Spirit Hall, Zhao Yingchang continued, “Eastern Daoist Friend, traveling on your own to Tai Xuan Divine City will pose many troubles. It would be safer to wait for the Spirit City Guards and leave with them than to go alone.”

Lin Yi thought to himself that accompanying the Spirit City Guards would be the real danger, “Hall Master Zhao need not worry, I possess the token bestowed upon me by the City Lord and the two Elders.”

As he spoke, he produced the token given to him by Elder Peng.

Upon seeing the token, Li Qinglin and the other’s expressions changed, sensing the intense aura of slaughter emanating from it. They were filled with shock and even disbelief.

They had heard rumors that Elder Peng had collected parts of the Primordial Spirits of the demons he had slain and forged them into tokens, but having never seen one, they had thought it to be mere hearsay.

Li Qinglin’s face showed shock as he said, “Eastern Daoist Friend, I had no idea Elder Peng would bestow such a token upon you. With this, you need not worry about your journey. To part ways so soon after ascending, I wish you smooth sailing and success in the Dao.”

“Thank you, Hall Master Li,” Lin Yi said with a fist salute, taking out the token also as a deterrent, signaling to Zhao Yingchang to warn any petty individuals not to act rashly.

Zhao Yingchang let out a long sigh, a gesture of reluctance, “Eastern Daoist Friend, then when will you begin your journey?”

He truly hadn’t expected that Elder Peng, known for his eccentric temperament and formidable combat power, would grant such a precious token to an Ascender.

Elder Peng’s reputation was known far and wide in the Spirit Profound Realm – revered by the Human race and feared by the Demon Tribe.

After guarding the Main Demon-Slaying City for thousands of years, his arrival in Qinglian Spirit City was merely due to the Tai Xuan Spirit Palace forcing him to take some rest. Otherwise, with his inclination to eradicate all of the Demon Tribe, he certainly wouldn’t have come to a city that was more vulnerable to demonic attacks.

With this token in hand, the journey should be smooth and unobstructed, as no one would dare to hinder him. To see this token is to see the man himself. Unless someone wished to court death, who would dare to challenge the authority of Peng Tianwu?

Lin Yi pondered for a moment before speaking, “In the next few days, perhaps. I want to wander around Qinglian Spirit City a bit longer and could leave at any time. Thus, I bid farewell to both Hall Masters now and thank you for your kindness.”

With that, he gave Li Qinglin and his companion a fist salute.

“Daoist Friend, you are too courteous. When you return to Qinglian Spirit City, don’t forget to visit Flying Spirit Hall for tea,” Li Qinglin replied with a fist salute, smiling. He could foresee that this Eastern Daoist Friend was no ordinary man.

Elder Peng’s temperament was well known; to grant such a valuable token after just one meeting spoke volumes of the Eastern Daoist Friend’s excellence.

Zhao Yingchang too gave a fist salute, “I also wish to preemptively congratulate the Daoist Friend on achieving greatness in the Dao.”

Since he couldn’t prevent him from leaving, he would let nature take its course. He didn’t suspect the Eastern Daoist Friend of anything untoward, but he had a duty to report the truth. As for how the situation would unfold from here, he would let the higher-ups worry about it.

“Thank you both Hall Masters,” Lin Yi expressed his gratitude once more and then took his leave to return to his Cave Mansion, packing up some belongings casually.

At that moment, Zhao Yingchang came for a visit, had tea for a while, and left behind a Jade Slip Map before departing, which recorded the safest teleportation routes to Tai Xuan Divine City.

Lin Yi glanced at it and memorized the information inside before destroying the Jade Slip. The route was indeed secure, bypassing every Spirit City, which also meant that some cities could be under the control of this organization.

Besides the nine Spirit Cities under the governance of Tai Xuan Spirit Palace, some cities within the Human race were influenced or entirely controlled by various other powers.

After some thought, he decided to purchase a few more items at the market before leaving. Going to Tai Xuan Dao Palace sooner would also allow him to rapidly ‘fleece’ resources and enhance his Cultivation levels.
