Hearing this, the Cultivators from some of the Sects around couldn’t help but start laughing again.

Several Golden Core Real Persons from the Xuan Yin Sect were the most amused. Now let’s see who in the Sky Demon Sect would dare to provoke next.

“Humph, our Sky Demon Sect also takes its leave.” The Sky Demon Sect’s several Golden Core Real Persons declared with gloomy expressions. Afterwards, they transformed into streaks of black light and disappeared on the spot.

The other sects also left one after another. The three Golden Core Real Persons from the Liu Yun Sect, took their disciples and departed, while Hua Yang Zhen Ren bore a sullen face, staring at his disciple, his heart filled with much anger.

Upon Xie Shao Jie’s return, he immediately began to question and found out that the fellow did not cook properly. He tried to gain favor from the Green Giant Python by rode on Lin Yi’s coattails, and then eventually got swatted away. This made his heart filled with suppressed rage.

The Liu Yun Sect only had three disciples who arrived in the Wood-Element district. The other two had obtained precious spiritual grass from the Giant Spirit Tree Herb Garden; only his disciple didn’t manage to get anything and instead got himself injured all over.

This was a precious slot which he had obtained by expending a lot and negotiating with other Golden Core Real Persons, and it was wasted just like that.

At present, he truly wanted to strangle this disgraceful fellow right away. Instead of doing important things, he kept pursuing deviant antics every day.

The Golden Core Real Persons of other sects too inquired about some events that happened in the secret realm on their way back. They learned that the Liu Yun Sect’s disciples had been telling stories about their Great Disciple Zhou Yun Feng in the secret realm, pleading Elder Dan God to bestow pills. They started laughing again.

Merely a Foundation Building Cultivator, no matter how touching the story is, it wouldn’t make Elder Dan God bestow pills. If Elder Dan God was such a soft-hearted person, there wouldn’t be so many deaths within the Secret Realm.

In the secret realm’s trial, everything depended on strength. To get Supreme-grade Resurrection Pills, one must only pass the Alchemy Room’s test, which might still provide a chance of obtaining it.

Merely saying some stories and expecting to get Supreme-grade Resurrection Pills was absolutely a delusional and foolish dream.

Suddenly, they remembered how Lin Yi had cooked food and fed the Guardian Beast. He finally got the precious spiritual grass. Initially, this seemed like a delusional idea in their view too, and they thought that this was impossible – that Lin Yi was certainly hiding and lying about certain facts.

However, apart from the Liu Yun Sect, two other Sect disciples managed to obtain the precious spiritual grass. This represented that everything Lin Yi said was true.

They would also need to prepare for the opening of the Dan God Secret Realm ten or twenty years later. It’s just cooking, as long as diligent practice is committed, achieving mastery and astonishing culinary skills within a few years is certainly possible.

The three Golden Core Real Persons of Liu Yun Sect returned to the sect with their disciples. Seeing the harvest this time, Sect Master Qing Yu Zen Ren and the other Golden Core Real Persons couldn’t help but express immense surprise.

In their view, Lin Yi’s secret method was just a try and to gain some spirit stones incidentally. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be successful.

As the two disciples from Golden Sword Peak and Jade Illusion Peak had helped prove the path of obtaining the precious spiritual grass from the Giant Spirit Tree Herb Garden, the precious spiritual grass that they obtained now belonged to them.

At the same time, some rewards were also given to Lin Yi, including ten thousand merit points.

Meanwhile in the Giant Spirit Tree Herb Garden within the Dan God’s Secret Realm, Lin Yi watched as the disciples were being teleported away. He then clapped his hands and prepared to withdraw. Suddenly, a message entered his ears. After listening, he immediately chanted the Teleportation Mantra and returned to the Dan God’s Cave Mansion instantaneously.

Zhang Dao Xuan’s figure slowly emerged and spoke calmly, “Lin Yi, I am now aware of your plan. However, everything in the Secret Realm must be gained through your own strength. Even if you are my inheritance disciple, you’re not an exception.”

“There are only two ways to obtain the Supreme-grade Resurrection Pill. One, you must concoct it yourself. Two, you need to pass the test of the Alchemy Room once again.”

“However, as you are now a high-grade Pill Master and my inheritance disciple, the difficulty of the test would increase. You must prepare a Spirit Level Elixir, then I will bestow the Supreme-grade Resurrection Pill unto you.”

Lin Yi nodded and saluted, “Master, I understand, I will acquire it with my own strength.”

Refining a Supreme-grade Resurrection Pill and refining a Spirit Rank Elixir are far apart in difficulty. Now he’s a high-rank Pill Master, and after achieving the Golden Core, his strength will also improve.

Even under high-level alchemy skills, with the effect of the title plus the Minor Blessing State, he can possibly refine a lower-grade Spirit Rank elixir across levels.

However, the difficulty of refining a Supreme-grade Resurrection Pill is quite high. Even the Nascent Soul True Monarch of the Medicine God Valley has not been able to refine it, showing how difficult it is.

To refine a Supreme-grade Resurrection Pill, he needs to first increase his alchemy skills to the Spirit Rank, then get the fourth-stage alchemy title, and upgrade the Spirit Rank Alchemy Skills to Great Perfection, then there’s a possibility.

However, Lin Yi is not willing to get it through the alchemy room test. As a disciple of the Pill Immortal lineage and with the help of the Golden Finger, he naturally wants to try refining by himself instead of going the easy route.

Just then, a popup window suddenly appeared in front of him, “The host has chosen high-difficulty challenges several times, showing admirable courage and has earned the title [Face Difficulties Head-On].”

Looking at the popup content, Lin Yi calmly gave a fist salute, “Master, I will take my leave.” After finishing, he pinched the teleportation spell and arrived at the Giant Spirit Tree Herb Garden.

At this moment, he opened the title panel and looked at the content of the just popped-up window again. Choosing a high-difficulty path several times, he couldn’t help but recall his cultivation career over the years. It was not easy indeed.

One of the high-difficulty paths he had chosen was the ten-layer evolution of the Creation Method. Once this was confirmed, the cultivation levels in all subsequent realms would need to evolve to the tenth layer.

Lin Yi’s eyes rested on the title, read the effects, and a touch of happiness appeared on his face. Even though this was a passive title that cannot be upgraded, the effect is very practical.

“[Face Difficulties Head On]: This is a passive title, no need to wear, cannot upgrade, when the host faces greater difficulties, they can get blessed with certain fortune luck.”

Lucky fortune, from the name, looks like it should be better than the general effects of Little Luck. If the two were combined, they would have an irresistible effect.

However, not all things can gain a fortune blessing, only those of considerable difficulty, after all, the name of the title is “Face Difficulties Head On.”

After closing the title panel, Lin Yi expressed gratitude to the green giant python, left some food behind, and returned to the cave mansion in Golden Sword Peak along with Zhi Ling.

Next, he needs to plan his cultivation carefully. He needs to break through to the Golden Core and raise his alchemy skills to Spirit Rank in twenty years.

His current cultivation level is at the Foundation Building Eighth Level, and his alchemy skill level is at the Grandmaster Level. The former is two cultivation levels away from trying to break through to the Golden Core, while the latter is a level away.

Of course, from Grandmaster to Great Perfection, it requires a thousand experience points. This one level equals the sum of experience from all the previous levels.

Lin Yi thinks he might as well work both sides—improving his cultivation level while also refining pills. And the most convenient way to improve cultivation level is undoubtedly attending classes.

However, at this point in the Foundation Building Late Stage, attending classes doesn’t bring much improvement anymore. He can only choose to continue exploiting the Pill Immortal Master himself. He can use the excuse of wanting to refine a Supreme-grade Resurrection Pill to get his master to teach him more.

Upon reaching Nine Complete Levels in Foundation Building, he now needs to cultivate and evolve the Foundation Building Tenth Layer on his own. This is definitely harder than evolving the Qi Refining Tenth Layer.

However, with the title [Face Difficulties Head On], even without using the Minor Blessing State, he can still receive the fortune blessing. This is pretty much a permanent Lucky Buff on all difficult matters.

If he reaches Great Perfection in the Foundation Building Tenth Layer, he will try to condense a Golden Core using the pillfire from the title reward. Refining the Golden Core is also within his scope of consideration.

It just so happens that with pill refining, there’s a chance to gain a pillfire. It’s like killing two birds with one stone.

As for the teacher’s title he was speculating about earlier, Lin Yi thinks he can occasionally teach the Qi Refining disciples in the future. Perhaps if he teaches enough times, he will earn it.
