The Path of Survivor begins with obtaining titles - Chapter 387: Secret Realm Education Course_2

Spirit Farmers, busy in the Spiritual Field, paused upon seeing Lin Yi flying overhead on a sword. They stopped their work to respectfully bow. The ability to control a flying sword was a marker of a Foundation Building cultivator, whom they could not disrespect.

Soon, Lin Yi landed above a Spiritual Field. A cultivator in the field was occupied with weeding and watering, evidently oblivious to Lin Yi’s arrival.

“Zhang Fu Guang, Zhang Fu Guang, a Foundation Building cultivator has arrived; he’s right next to your Spiritual Field.” The neighboring Spirit Farmers hastily alerted him.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Fu Guang quickly raised his head and stepped out of the field, bowing to Lin Yi, “Zhang Fu Guang pays his respects to Uncle Master Lin.”

Lin Yi waved his hand, setting up a soundproof barrier. He then handed over a notebook saying, “Zhang Fu Guang, this is a list of evildoers left by Xu Zhi Wu. Some years have passed, so it’s not certain whether the information is still accurate. I need you to investigate this.”

He had promised Xu Zhi Wu to deal with the evildoers one by one, and he would stay true to his word. At present, having achieved the Golden Core stage and possessing a strength comparable to that of the early Nascent Soul stage, it was time to fulfill his promise.

Zhang Fu Guang accepted the notebook, bowing respectfully. “Understood, Uncle Master Lin, I will have the information for you within a month.”

“Good.” Lin Yi casually threw him a Storage Bag. “This Spirit Stone is for you to use in your investigation.” The storage bag contained more than a hundred Spirit Stones.

Zhang Fu Guang, after glancing at the Spirit Stones, hastily declined. “Uncle Master, this is too much.”

“Whatever remains, consider it your reward,” Lin Yi said with a smile and then took his leave on his sword.

The surrounding Spirit Farmers hurriedly bowed, respectfully bidding Lin Yi goodbye. They looked at Zhang Fu Guang with a mix of admiration and envy. Being acquainted with a Foundation Building cultivator was a great blessing indeed.

Without further delay, Zhang Fu Guang asked a fellow Spirit Farmer to help tend to his field. He rushed home, first sorting the list of evildoers, then setting out to gather information.

A few days after Lin Yi returned to the Inner Sect, the selections for the Secret Realm teachings arrived from the various peaks. All the disciples from the six local Golden Core Lineages, excluding that of Golden Sword Peak, chose to agree to the conditions to be nominated for the Secret Realm.

About half of the disciples under Divine Fire Zen Ren chose to agree to the conditions, while the others opted to participate based on merit.

The remaining three non-local Golden Core Lineages, such as those under Hua Yang Zhen Ren and Wan Jun Zen Ren, surprisingly, all agreed to the conditions as well. It seemed they wanted the teachings for free.

This made sense, as these non-local Golden Core Lineages were not as strong. Apart from those under Divine Fire Zen Ren, they rarely won the right to enter the Secret Realm.

Rather than spend merit only to be unable to secure a place in the Secret Realm, they might as well participate for free.

However, Lin Yi set some restrictions for the disciples from the other peaks. Each peak could only send five disciples, and for better teaching results, the disciples would need to participate in separate batches.

Lin Yi’s requirements left the other peaks breathing a sigh of relief. This showed that Lin Yi was serious about the teachings and wouldn’t slack off, despite them being free.

Meanwhile, the Sect’s top brass told Lin Yi that other Sects also wanted to participate in the Secret Realm teachings in advance. After all, earlier teachings would allow more time for practice, increasing chances of obtaining the precious spiritual grass in the Secret Realm.

The first two Sects to request this were the Medicine God Valley and the Spirit Control Sect. Both Sects had obtained a stalk of precious spiritual grass last time and were eager to repeat their success.

Even though they could have disciples who had previously obtained the spiritual grass share their experiences, it wouldn’t compare to teachings from Lin Yi. Plus, the Guardian Beast in the Secret Realm might be changed this time.

Seeing the Medicine God Valley and the Spirit Control Sect making their requests, the other Sects didn’t want to be left behind and made their own requests. They wouldn’t want to return empty-handed from the Secret Realm again.

Obtaining one stalk of precious spiritual grass may not significantly boost the overall strength of a Sect but, in certain instances, it could play a crucial role.

Lin Yi naturally agreed to this but proposed to the Sect’s top brass that the disciples from each Sect should have a choice.

The first choice was to pay a full price in Spirit Stones to participate. Disciples from a Righteous Sect would need to pay a hundred thousand Spirit Stones each, and those from the Path of Demonic Sects twice as much.

The second choice was that the other Sects could choose to participate at half price. However, they would need to plead thirty times in each medicine garden for Elder Dan God to bestow the Heaven Pill upon Great Disciple Zhou Yun Feng of the Golden Sword Peak.

When the Sect’s top brass heard of Lin Yi’s proposal, they couldn’t help but feel helpless. Lin Yi planned to have all the Sects pray for Zhou Yun Feng to receive the Heaven Pill, which was simply impossible.

However, since this was part of Lin Yi’s teachings, they didn’t dare refuse. They did, however, bring up the issue of what if disciples who agreed to the second condition didn’t plead for Zhou Yun Feng in the Secret Realm.

Even though the pleading was to be done in the medicine gardens, some areas were assigned fewer cultivators. Hence, when they arrived at the medicine garden, it might only be them there. They definitely wouldn’t waste their energy pleading then. Moreover, it wasn’t possible to record this using the Image Recording Stones in the Secret Realm.

Lin Yi explained that indeed, he couldn’t ensure everyone acted according to their promises. But as long as more than half did, he would be satisfied. This provided the last bit of hope for his senior brother.
