The Path of Survivor begins with obtaining titles

Chapter 493: Chapter 258: Breaking the Pill to Become an Infant_2
Although these pieces of knowledge have already been heard by cultivators at the Perfect Qi Refining stage, they may take on different effects in his lectures.

His title as a teacher has now been elevated to [Senior Teacher], which enables him to establish a mentor-student relationship with animals and enhance the enlightenment given by attending his classes.

For a certain period afterward, Lin Yi accepted over ten disciples from the sect’s Disciple Registration Hall. These were all cultivators with at least Medium Grade Spirit Roots, recruited from various places by the sect.

From time to time, Foundation Building cultivators from each peak would come and select suitable disciples. If they were not chosen for ten consecutive years, they would have no choice but to perform miscellaneous tasks around the sect.

He wouldn’t directly select seemingly highly talented cultivators with Supreme-grade or Top-grade Spiritual Roots. Instead, he would first evaluate their temperament.

For him, the inadequacy of spiritual roots can be gradually improved by later teachings, fostering enlightenment. In contrast, insufficient temperaments cannot be remedied.

More than half of these ten or so disciples had Medium Grade Spirit Roots, in other words, they were the leftovers that others didn’t pick.

Lin Yi controlled the frequency of guiding disciples at the Qi Refining Completion stage to be once every five days, with each session lasting eight hours, which he called Foundation Establishment intensive training. In a short time, it allowed them to absorb knowledge and instilled a large amount of enlightenment in them.

To listen to his lectures and gain enlightenment, one had to listen carefully and digest the knowledge contained within seriously. Casual listening would not suffice.

Meanwhile, most of the disciples recruited from the Disciple Registration Hall have already been taught the Cultivation Technique. Some have successfully sensed Spiritual Energy, entering the first level of Qi Refining, while others have yet to sense it.

These disciples naturally couldn’t attend classes with those who have reached Perfect Qi Refining, as they wouldn’t understand and wouldn’t trigger the effects from the teacher title.

Therefore, he gave separate lectures to these disciples once every two months, leaving the rest to their self-cultivation.

At the same time, Lin Yi went to the Outer Sect and gave public lectures to the Outer Sect Disciples. Although he saw some good seeds with kind hearts, he did not recruit them, instead, he let these people gain experience in the Outer Sect.

Regrettably, Zhang Fu Guang, who used to have a good relationship with Xu Zhi Wu, was arranged to plant Medium Grade Spiritual Fields in the Outer Sect. Despite being provided with some resources, he failed to successfully establish his foundation. When his life limit arrived a few decades ago, he passed away.

During this period, Golden Core Real Persons from other peaks wanted to send some students over, but were tactfully refused by Lin Yi. He stated that he had not officially recruited disciples yet and had only taken in a few students for trial.

As for his two neighbors, Lin Yi let them each select a few newly admitted disciples. After a trial, they joined the disciples he recruited from the Disciple Registration Hall for learning. After all, he couldn’t go back on what he had promised before.

However, for the Qi Refining Completion intensive training class, he only accepted disciples from his master and two senior martial siblings, without adding disciples from any other peaks.

Thus, after about half a year of training, more than half of these thirty or so disciples had significant insights and returned to their respective peaks for secluded cultivation. Most of them had top-grade or supreme-grade Spirit Roots.

The remaining ones had medium-grade Spirit Roots. Some of them were diligent in their usual cultivation, much like Xu Yu Rou. However, they were simply not talented enough to cross the threshold of Foundation Establishment.

Hence, Lin Yi continued teaching them for another half a year. Eventually, the Qi Refining Completion class, including Xu Yu Rou, had significant insights into the bottlenecks of Foundation Establishment and went into secluded cultivation.

A month later, Xu Yu Rou at Yun Yi Peak took her final step and succeeded in establishing her foundation. Fifteen other Qi Refining Completion students in the intensive training class succeeded in Foundation Establishment, while the rest showed no signs of breakthrough.

However, this was what Lin Yi had requested. He asked them to suppress their realms first and then undergo Foundation Establishment secretly, reducing the success rate so as not to be alarming.

He didn’t ask these training students to conceal the fact that they were taught by him and succeeded in Foundation Establishment, as they couldn’t possibly hide it from the Golden Core Real Persons within the sect.

As he speculated, some Golden Core Real Persons in the sect learned about this matter through some channels. After understanding the Spirit Roots of these Qi Refining Complete disciples, they were a bit surprised but felt that it was still within acceptable bounds.

Yun Yi Zen Ren has been teaching for a year. Among these perfect Qi refining disciples who successfully built their foundations, most have top-grade or supreme grade spiritual roots, and they have all taken Foundation Building Pills.

In those disciples who have not yet built their foundation, most possess medium grade spiritual roots, with the presence of top-grade and supreme grade spiritual roots. It seems that this kind of teaching is not effective for everyone.

This shows that although Lin Yi’s teaching is very effective, it hasn’t reached a heaven-defying level.

This is the result they want to see. If under Lin Yi’s cultivation, no matter what the spiritual root is, after a year of teaching, the foundation building success rate reaches 100%, that would be truly astonishing.

More importantly, they don’t gain any benefits from this, they can only watch enviously.

Because Lin Yi has now achieved the Golden Core, they can’t possibly force him to teach their disciples. Regardless of whether the other three real people of the Golden Sword Lineage agree, even the Sect Master probably won’t agree.

The more conspicuous the results of the lectures, the more beneficial it will be for the cultivation of the Liu Yun Sect’s younger disciples.

Now, while the teaching seems effective, in the end it still depends on the disciple’s own spiritual root comprehension — no matter how many lessons are taken, it’s useless if the spiritual roots are too poor.

Lin Yi is naturally very pleased with the attitudes of these Golden Core Real People. He’s not worried that his teaching will be too effective and then get targeted by some people. In his current power, even the Nascent Soul True Monarch is not his opponent.

What he doesn’t want is to have students from all the other peaks cramming in because his teaching is too effective. That would be too troublesome.

Even if the Creation Method is discovered by others, he has nothing to fear. After breaking the Golden Core to achieve the infant form, he is basically an invincible existence in the Cultivation World.

As for the Upper Realm, simply by altering a virtual identity and hiding Lin Yi’s appearance, there would be no risk of exposing his identity.

Of course, he also wishes to use his real identity as much as possible. No matter how good a virtual identity is, it’s not his true identity.

After Xu Yu Rou successfully built her foundation, her lifespan also increased. Her body, which was already aging, was once again filled with vitality.

However, after successfully building the foundation, she only gained a portion of the foundation life limit. As her cultivation level improved and her physical strength increased, only then could she gain the remaining lifespan.

However, with him as a [Senior Teacher], it’s not a problem for Xu Yu Rou, who has lower-grade spiritual roots, to achieve the Golden Core.

Afterwards, Lin Yi handed over some of the affairs of the Yun Yi Lineage to Xu Yu Rou, devoted himself to seclusion in the Cave Mansion, and prepared to break the Golden Core and form the infant within ten years.

According to the Eye of Emptiness’s exploration, Master Golden Sword’s Nascent Soul inside his body had not yet reached its limit. However, he estimated that Master Golden Sword would be able to reach the Nascent Soul Realm successfully within thirty to forty years.

In this year of teaching his disciples, Lin Yi also took the opportunity to have Pill Immortal Master reinforce the Cave Mansion Formation. Even the Nascent Soul True Monarch would be unable to break it for quite some time, and it would not be controlled by any token of the sect.

What’s more important is that any cultivator within Liu Yun Sect won’t be able to probe the information inside the Cave Mansion, which provides him with great convenience.

After activating the Cave Mansion Formation, Lin Yi came to the Cultivation Cave Mansion and then entered the Dan God Secret Realm. He did not go to the Spirit Beast Dojo, but greeted Pill Immortal Master, entered the Cultivation Cave Mansion, and began the process of breaking the Golden Core into the infant form.

Breaking the Golden Core to form the infant also involves enlightenment, loosening the realm, breaking the Golden Core and allowing the infant to emerge from within, thus becoming a real Nascent Soul.

When the Nascent Soul leaves the Golden Core, the shattered Golden Core turns into nutrients that are absorbed by the Nascent Soul so that it can grow further. From then on, only the Nascent Soul exists within the Dantian, no longer the Golden Core.

Lin Yi wore some titles, began to operate the Creation Method, and comprehended the realm of Nascent Soul. At this moment, the Golden Core started to rotate on its own, and he felt his consciousness was uncontrollably sucked into it.
