The Path of Survivor begins with obtaining titles

Chapter 582: Chapter 297: Zhou Yun Feng’s Lifespan is About to End_3
Breaking the Core to form the Nascent Soul is even more unique. If one tries to force the Core to break through using external forces, the ultimate result would be perishing completely without a shred of success. In the long history of the Cultivation World, such instances are not rare.

He suspected his older senior brother was about to take a Longevity Pill. If he is on the verge of breaking through and takes the Longevity Pill now, there’s still a chance.

If there is no sign of a breakthrough, the lifespan added by the Longevity Pill could only just extend it. To use the increased lifespan for breaking through the realm would be nothing more than a pipe dream.

One day, as Lin Yi was giving a lecture to his disciples at the Yun Yi Palace, he heard the summons from Master Golden Sword, “Yun Yi, come to me.”

Immediately, he hit pause on his lecture, asked his disciples to continue cultivating on their own, and set off on his flying sword to Golden Sword Ancestor Peak.

He estimated that Master Golden Sword was about to give Zhou Yun Feng a Longevity Pill. Utilizing the strong vitality from the Longevity Pill could perhaps provide an opportunity for one last struggle. After all, Zhou Yun Feng’s lifespan is reaching its limit, and his vitality is continuously weakening, further increasing the difficulty of breaking through the realm.

That’s why Xu Yu Rou was told to focus mainly on cultivation. Otherwise, by the time life expectancy is nearing, breaking through would require several times the previous effort.

Soon, Lin Yi arrived at Golden Sword Ancestor Peak, where he saw Qi Jing Yu and Li Yuan Qing, the last direct disciples of Master Golden Sword. The rest, who failed to form the Golden Core, had passed away within their 250-year lifespan during the Foundation Establishment.

Although Qi Jing Yu is around a hundred years younger than Zhou Yun Feng, she has not been able to conceive a Nascent Soul yet. She would likely perish once her 500-year lifespan limit is reached.

Conceiving a nascent soul is easier than breaking the Core to form one, but not everyone can succeed in it.

Moreover, forming a nascent soul can affect one’s own strength, as the nutrients within the Golden Core are all absorbed by the nascent soul. Therefore, some cultivators who feel they cannot break the Core to form the nascent soul won’t even attempt to conceive one and instead choose to travel until their end in the Golden Core Realm.

As directed, they came to a courtyard next to them and found Zhou Yun Feng in the garden, chatting and drinking tea with Master Golden Sword.

“Oh, Master, here you are, secretly enjoying tea with big brother and you’ve forgotten the rest of us disciples. You still owe me at least two pounds of tea leaves,” Lin Yi jokingly said.

The Gold Sword True Monarch could barely contain his mirth. As soon as his youngest disciple spoke up, he was able to instantly lighten the atmosphere, “You’re demanding two pounds of tea when your big brother has only taken a sip, what a big mouth you have.”

“I’m just worried that you may not be able to finish it,” said Lin Yi, walking over with a smile.

“All right, sit down first,” Gold Sword True Monarch waved his hand and said. Once everyone settled down, he said with a sigh, “Only you four remain as my direct disciples. Ah, time flies! It feels like just yesterday when I took Little Yi as my direct disciple, completely unaware that more than two hundred years have passed.”

At that time, he chose Lin Yi as his direct disciple because the young man had found several precious spiritual grass in the Dan God Secret Realm and made significant contributions.

Unexpectedly, this disciple with lower-grade spiritual roots has made it this far in the path of cultivation, achieving the Golden Core.

“Ahem, Master, by all means, continue, but don’t go revealing my age, making me seem like an old man,” Lin Yi coughed out loud.

The Gold Sword True Monarch couldn’t help but laugh and chide, “Shut your mouth, you wee rascal! You have destroyed the sentimental atmosphere.”

Lin Yi immediately sealed his lips tight, even pulling at them with his fingers as if to lock them up, causing everyone to once again burst out laughing.

Then, Gold Sword True Monarch continued, “Your big brother is at a crucial point of breaking through, his life limit is about to be exhausted, he needs to take a Longevity Pill for a chance at breaking through.”

“Today, I called you here to give him a bit of respite before he takes the Longevity Pill and tries to break through.”

Using the Eye of Emptiness, Lin Yi scanned and found it was indeed a crucial moment. Compared to two years ago, the process of breaking through had progressed. With the Supreme-grade Infant Pill and the vitality of the Longevity Pill, there was a strong possibility of successful Core breaking.

“Big Brother, you’ll definitely make it,” Li Yuan Qing said sincerely.

Qi Jing Yu didn’t say anything, she just reached out her hand and held Zhou Yun Feng’s tightly.

“Ahem, Master, seems like we’re a bit superfluous here. Should we withdraw?” Seeing the romantic interaction between the two, Lin Yi couldn’t help but remind them.

Gold Sword True Monarch shook his head and chuckled, “Don’t you have anything to say to your big brother, who is about to break through?”

“Big Brother, don’t feel too much pressure, relax. If all fails, we’re still men eighteen years later,” Lin Yi said earnestly.
