The Path of Survivor begins with obtaining titles

Chapter 482: 253: Golden Core Manifestation_1

No matter if it was true or false, it wasn’t important anymore. He had already grasped his True Self, removed the false self, and all hatred and sins brought about by his predecessor had nothing to do with him. He would not bear the karmic consequences of his predecessor.

He guessed that if he chose to bear the karma of his predecessor in the past, he might continue to be lost, even totally inheriting his predecessor’s memories, leading to mental splits or even breakdowns.

After crossing over into this world, Lin Yi always felt that he was an independent person. Even though he had possessed the body of his predecessor, he was still a new Lin Yi.

Just as he said in the spiritual world, he could volunteer to help his predecessor take revenge, but this was not a responsibility, nor could it be imposed in any way.

Cutting off all ties with his predecessor to finally achieve his true self, was his firm belief.

Thinking of the memories he saw in the spiritual world, Lin Yi sighed lightly. His predecessor’s experiences were truly tragic.

Despite carrying such a great blood debt and mental stress, he didn’t go mad or choose to join the dark paths that would allow him to increase cultivation levels more swiftly but Instead, he chose the righteous path and wanted to strengthen himself within the Liu Yun Sect.

He believed that under such circumstances, he would have also fallen into madness.

Thus, it is evident that his predecessor was a kind-hearted upright man. Unfortunately, the Cultivation World was cruel. The Spiritual Root was the primary capital in the Cultivation World. With a good Spiritual Root, one could easily achieve success, but with a poor Spiritual Root, one could only struggle to survive at the bottom.

At that time, if anyone had chosen to assist his predecessor, his current fate of death could have been avoided.

Now, an idea emerged in Lin Yi’s heart. He was not a savior and couldn’t help everyone. However, he was willing to use his own strengths to offer occasional help to others in his spare time.

This help was not about giving Spirit Stones, but about teaching them and improving their comprehension. This was the true help.

Of course, before teaching, he would naturally use the Eye of Emptiness to select the students. Those with evil intentions were not eligible for his help.

While thinking, the figure of Zhang Dao Xuan slowly emerged. With a solemn expression, he said, “Lin Yi, you seem to have come out of your enlightenment. How do you feel?”

He did not ask first if a nascent soul had been conceived because his disciple’s safety was more important than the Nascent Soul Realm.

Lin Yi nodded with joy on his face and said, “Master, I have successfully understood my True Self and have sensed life in the thread of breath in my Golden Core. I believe the nascent soul has been conceived.”

Ordinary cultivators cannot see through the Golden Core to observe the nascent soul formation process, but Lin Yi, with the Eye of Emptiness, could see through the essence, a secret only known to him.

“Good, very good, you’ve crossed the first hurdle. Next, you need to nurture the nascent soul to maturity, and then you can break the Core to become an Infant.” Zhang Dao Xuan was also spiritually uplifted and praised him repeatedly.

He originally thought that since Lin Yi had a short cultivation period, even if he didn’t get lost in the understanding, it would take at least several decades to complete the first step of this breakthrough. Unexpectedly, it only took a mere seventeen years to conceive a Nascent Soul, which was truly astonishing.

If it can be said that Foundation Establishment and the Golden Core Realm could rely on external forces to break through, then the first hurdle of Nascent Soul cultivation was a complete test of your understanding of the Dao, and any external force was ineffective.

As for the Infant Breaking Pill, which could increase the success rate of breaking into the Nascent Soul Realm, it was absolutely useless during Nascent Soul cultivation. It only worked when the Nascent Soul was fully matured and faced the second hurdle of breaking the Core to become an Infant.

“Master, thank you for your instruction,” Lin Yi stood up, deeply bowing with a clenched fist.

If it weren’t for this Pill Immortal Master, his cultivation level would never have advanced so rapidly.

When he had just entered the Liu Yun Sect Inner Door, he was still at the Qi Refining Realm, but now, he was close to Master Golden Sword’s progress and almost at the stage of breaking the Core to become an Infant.

The Five Element Spiritual Energy deep in the Dan God Secret Realm was richer than that on the Golden Sword Peak. His time for Nascent Soul cultivation would definitely be much quicker than Master Golden Sword’s.

As for whether he would surpass Master Golden Sword and break the Core to become an Infant sooner, that would depend on his opportunities.

Strictly speaking, Nascent Soul cultivation is just one step in the breakthrough. There’s no cultivation experience display, and the title panel at this point states: Tenth Layer of the Golden Core Stage (Nascent Soul cultivation in process).

Before successfully breaking the Core to become an Infant, the Nascent Soul inside the Golden Core could only be considered an Infant body, not a true Nascent Soul, just like an animal in an eggshell is not considered a living creature before it hatches.

Therefore, he can only cultivate and grow on his own and can no longer take advantage of any external circumstances.

Zhang Dao Xuan stood in place and accepted his bow, patting Lin Yi’s shoulder while smiling, “Keep working hard, strive to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm before your Golden Sword master from Liu Yun Sect.”

“Master, I have the same idea and my greater goal is to cross the Tribulation and ascend to the Immortal Realm before you, hehe.” Lin Yi showed a shy smile as he stated his aspiration bashfully.
