The Path of Survivor begins with obtaining titles - Chapter 544:

The Sun Moon Divine Sect heralded its grand ceremony, and this sect had also attended.

A few years prior, the Heavenly Machine Sect had only just produced a Nascent Soul True Monarch, who had barely managed to transition from his Golden Core stage to his Nascent Soul stage at the age of five hundred and ten, relying solely on Lifespan Extension Pills to prolong his life and barely become a Nascent Soul True Monarch.

His sect’s strength had also been acknowledged by other sects. The previous Ten Major Sects had sent a message to the Sun Moon Divine Sect, asking whether they agreed to let the Heavenly Machine Sect replace the Canghua Sect as one of the Ten Major Sects.

When Jade Illusion Zen Ren came to report this, he didn’t take it seriously and directly agreed.

Generally speaking, for a sect to replace a previous sect among the Ten Major Sects, it needs the agreement of at least four sects. As long as they have the required strength, no sect would refuse.

Thus, Lin Yi erased the name of the Canghua Sect and replaced it with the Heavenly Machine Sect. However, he thought for a moment, the Virtue Points he spent will have been wasted. To do it all again would be pointless.

The branch had just fallen in the blank margin and missed the Blood Demonic Sect, which meant that the person’s hiding range was near the original Canghua Sect, now the Heavenly Machine Sect.

If they continued, they would get a more specific location, but at the expense of more Virtue Points.

Now that they had the direction around the Heavenly Machine Sect, it was just a matter of time to find them. Besides, using the Eye of Emptiness only consumed his Divine Sense.

Lin Yi then headed to the Heavenly Machine Sect. It seemed that the person thought that since he had been to the Canghua Sect before, he wouldn’t go there again.

The Heavenly Machine Sect was adept at divination. Therefore, in the Cultivation World, they had a good reputation. Many cultivators facing unknown difficulties or crises would come here for divination.

This was one of the reasons why their ancestor barely managed to break through to the Nascent Soul stage at over five hundred years old. Divination is not easy, it can consume vitality.

Generally speaking, most attribute cultivation techniques cannot prolong one’s lifespan. Only by refining the Wood Element Technique to its peak can there be a possibility of prolonging life. However, even if it were possible, it would extend one’s life by at most a few decades.

The only way to gain a longer lifespan is to break through one’s current realm.

Now, most of the disciples of the Canghua Sect had gone their separate ways. Most of them did not choose to join the Ten Major Sects, but instead, joined small and medium-sized sects.

This is because their ancestors, the True Lord Star Plucker, had become a traitor of the righteous path. They, as his disciples, were like homeless dogs. Surely they would be discriminated against if they joined the righteous sects. As for the Path of Demonic Sects, they didn’t want to become like their ancestors, sullied by association.

Of course, it is also due to the decline of the Path of Demonic Sects. The Xuan Yin Sect has already been annihilated. With only the Sky Demon Sect and the Blood Demonic Sect remaining, there’s no more room for any significant trouble.

Once Master Golden Sword transitions from Golden Core to Nascent Soul stage and stabilizes his Nascent Soul cultivation level, he is very likely to find a way to exterminate these two sects.

After Lin Yi arrived at the domain of the Heavenly Machine Sect, a Nascent Soul True Monarch named Heavenly Pivot came out to greet him. Sensing this, he directly transmitted his voice across, “There’s no need for formalities. I am here for some matter and will leave shortly.”

Surprised appeared on Monarch Heavenly Pivot’s face, and he bowed into the nothingness before returning to his sect. The strength of the Divine Sense of the Eastern Sect Master, being able to sense him from such a distance, was truly astonishing.

As long as he wasn’t causing trouble for the Heavenly Machine Sect, he could rest assured.

Then, using the effect of the Eye of Emptiness and his own Divine Sense, Lin Yi successfully located the third Golden Core of the Xuan Yin Sect and executed him.

Now, only the Black-cloaked Taoist, Yin You, is left. He copied his previous method, using Little Luck to determine Yin You’s approximate location. Surprisingly, this person had entered the Monster Beast Forest.

He thought for a moment. Right now, there are two options: either go and execute him immediately or wait until Master Golden Sword’s Golden Core transitions to a Nascent Soul before going.

Because he entered the Monster Beast Forest, he might not be able to get out for a year and a half. Moreover, he planned on taking Zhi Ling with him this time to hunt and kill Yin You in the Monster Beast Forest.

Before reaching the Nascent Soul stage, he had promised Zhi Ling that when he next leaves closed-door cultivation, he will fulfill her wish. Now, he has been a Nascent Soul True Monarch for almost ten years, and it’s time to fulfill that promise.

Nevertheless, Lin Yi was not in a hurry. After all, someone who escapes into the Monster Forest wouldn’t be able to leave in a short time. Even if he escaped to the Xuan Tian Realm on the other side of the forest, he could transport there directly via the Dan God Secret Realm.

He first returned to the Liu Yun Sect and went to the Golden Sword Peak to confirm Master Golden Sword’s progress again. Judging by his current progress, he should be able to break through in a few months.

Hence, he decided to wait for Master Golden Sword to become a Nascent Soul True Monarch, celebrate, and then head to the Monster Beast Forest.
