The Path of Survivor Begins With Obtaining Titles

 

“`

In these years, Lin Yi secretly obtained the Creation Method that could reach the Transcendance Tribulation Stage through some channels. As for whether he could use the method beyond the Crossing Tribulation, it would depend on whether his fate would undergo significant changes.

At the same time, he gleaned from announcements within the Dao Discussion Pavilion that the Cultivator of Fusion who carried the large saber, whom he had foreseen in a Predict Crisis before ascending from the Lower Realm, was an Elder of a Spirit City near the territory of the Demon race, named Xu Fenghai. With the saber as his path, his dominance was unmatched.

Over a thousand years, he had ventured deep into the territories occupied by the Demon race more than a dozen times and achieved considerable triumphs each time.

From this information, it could be inferred that Xu Fenghai was likely already a member of an organization that opposed the Creation Method. Whenever he received news of a suspicious Cultivator ascending, he would lead his subordinates into a Spirit City occupied by the Demon race under the pretense of exterminating the Demon race. There, they would use the Ascension Platform to guide the ascension of Cultivators of the Creation Method.

Based on the number of occurrences, it seemed that there were very few Cultivators who practiced the Creation Method to the stage of Huashen. In over a thousand years, there were fewer than twenty instances.

However, Lin Yi found this quite normal since cultivating the Creation Method was extremely difficult. One had to evolve and create the Tenth Layer on their own to attain creation.

Even with the help of his title, it took him five hundred years to achieve this. Of course, a significant amount of that time was spent on Alchemy research or Divine Skills.

Even so, under normal conditions, a Cultivator with the talent to break through to the level of a Huashen within the thousand-year lifespan of a Nascent Soul was considered highly gifted.

Although he knew the identity of this Fusion Cultivator, he had no immediate plans for action. With his current cultivation levels, defeating a Fusion Cultivator was too difficult. As for reporting this matter to the high-ranking officials of the Dao Palace, it wouldn’t be of much significance.

As a Guardian Elder of a Spirit City, Xu Fenghai was not likely to return to the Tai Xuan Dao Palace readily, so Lin Yi could focus on improving his cultivation levels without worry.

Now, fifty years had passed. After ceaseless study and happily collecting resources, his cultivation level had reached the fifth layer of the middle stage of Huashen. However, he activated the ability of his Path of Survivor title to hide three layers of his cultivation, maintaining the appearance of being at the second level of Huashen.

During these years, Lin Yi did not change his identity and continued to use that of Invincible East because using any other identity might lock in on his destiny. He experienced the Heavenly Tribulation every fifty years and went through it four times in total.

However, there were only fifty years left until the centennial Heavenly Tribulation of his Invincible East identity.

In the Tai Xuan Mirror’s Dao Discussion Pavilion and the Hidden Dao Pavilion of the Dao Palace, he found many pieces of information about the Heavenly Tribulation of Ascenders.

This tribulation was significantly dangerous, serving as a test for Ascenders. One could not rely too heavily on external items, or the tribulation would intensify.

Success in crossing the tribulation would completely purge the otherworldly aura from one’s body and bring certain benefits. If one had a strong physical body and faced the tribulation bodily, the rewards would be greater.

Lin Yi decided to first cross the tribulation as Invincible East to see its effects on the body. If it proved beneficial, he would then look for opportunities for his main body and the other two virtual identities to undergo the tribulation.

Ascenders needed to cross tribulations, whereas native cultivators did not, which was a significant difference. The information suggested that crossing tribulations was not a burden but an aid for Ascenders.

Therefore, the Human Clan of the Spirit Profound Realm showed no discrimination towards stowaway cultivators from the Lower Realm and paid them no special attention.

After all, stowing away was different from proper ascension, and the tribulation encountered by such individuals would be even more ferocious, a punishment from destiny. No matter how one looked at it, stowaway was a way of sneaking and taking shortcuts.

One day, after finishing his class, Lin Yi was going through information in the Dao Discussion Pavilion with the Tai Xuan Mirror when he suddenly saw a message about Zhang Dao Xuan. He opened it and his expression grew somber.

“Hey, have you all heard? The Demon Tribe has once again brought that White Serpent of the Dan God Zhang Dao Xuan to the outskirts of the Spirit Demon-Slaying City. They do this every fifty years with such persistence. Zhang Dao Xuan has been missing for several hundred years now, and his personally founded Pavilion of Profound Dao has been left unattended. How could he possibly come out to save his Spiritual Pet?”

“The Demon Tribe relies on these methods to threaten Human Ascenders. But, few Spirit Beasts from the Lower Realm can ascend. That White Serpent has undergone the Transformation from snake to python and then from python to Jiao Dragon, which is no easy feat.”

“If you ask me, there’s something wrong with the rules of ascension. Spiritual Pets with masters should be guided to the Ascension Platform of our Human Clan’s Spirit City. Instead, they have to go to the Demon Tribe and fall into enemy hands.”

“Sigh, there was an Ascender in the past who ignored his own Spiritual Pet completely. And the Demon Tribe, cruel and ruthless as they are, directly slaughtered it at the entrance of the Spirit Demon-Slaying City.”

“This time, the Demon Tribe has also issued a threat. If Zhang Dao Xuan does not respond within five hundred years, they will also lead the White Serpent to the entrance of the Spirit Demon-Slaying City and kill it.”

“It’s a pity. Only Spiritual Pets that have never been enemies of the Human race will be killed, while other pets that submit to the Demon Tribe and attack the Human race will remain unharmed.”

“It’s not easy to ascend from the Lower Realm and attain human form, only to face such a grim fate. It would be great if we could take possession of the Demon Tribe’s lands of ascension.”

“I think the Dao Palace should send some people to rescue the Spiritual Pets.”

“How can we rescue them? If even their masters don’t care, and considering the Demon Tribe has many cunning and vicious individuals, it’s likely they’ve already set up an ambush, waiting for us to attempt a rescue. Then, not only would the Spiritual Pets not be saved, but we would also lose a lot of Cultivators.”
