Chapter 255 - 155: A Gentleman Does Not Stand Under a Dangerous Wall_2
It was just like a minivan on Earth. Until all the passengers alight, you really can’t imagine how many people a single vehicle can carry.
“No accident occurred, that’s fortunate,” he shook his head and remarked.
“Indeed, since then, I’ve been striving hard in my cave mansion, diligently cultivating to reach the ninth level of Qi Refining. But I’m still no match for you, Uncle Master.” Zhang Wei Hu looked admiringly at Lin Yi.
Gold Sword Zen Ren wasn’t your average Golden Core cultivator. He was the strongest in the Liu Yun Sect, second only to the Nascent Soul Cultivators in the Heng Yuan World.
The Liu Yun Sect could sustain even with the loss of any Golden Core cultivator, but if Gold Sword Zen Ren were lost, the sect’s power would undeniably plummet.
“The path to cultivation is long. Temporary superiority doesn’t guarantee perpetual dominance. Perhaps you’ll establish your foundation earlier than me in future.” Lin Yi responded calmly.
“Your words make sense, Uncle Master. I will cultivate even harder.” Zhang Wei Hu showed his respect with a clasped-fist salute.
After a brief chat, Lin Yi rode his flying boat away from the Cloud Attraction Platform and returned to his cave mansion at Jin Xiu Peak.
Along the way, he kept pondering about what scheme Lu Yun Xiang might have, and whether he should inform his Master or fellow brothers.
Eventually, he dismissed the idea, as he might just be chasing ghosts. Given the length of time that passed, any ambush in the Monster Forest would have already retreated.
Lu Yun Xiang was the direct disciple of Hua Yang Zhen Rene Hua Yang Zhen Ren wouldn’t let other Golden Core cultivators interrogate his disciple without intervening, it might even lead to conflicts between two Golden Core cultivators.
Moreover, based on his conjecture, this incident might be Hua Yang Zhen
Ren’s instruction. The goal was simple: it was related to the Longevity Grass.
During the lengthy opening of the Dan God Secret Realm, only he succeeded in obtaining the precious spiritual grass from the Giant Spirit Tree Herb Garden. Few people may believe that it was due to affinity with his spiritual pet and food temptation.
Perhaps Hua Yang Zhen Ren felt that there must be some hidden secrets in him and wanted to lure him out of the sect. Once he left the sect, others would capture him and unearth his secrets.
This likelihood was high. Sometimes, cultivators could fight fiercely for a pill, let alone the precious spiritual grass in the Dan God Secret Realm.
If he informed his Master or else the brothers, he would most likely end up having a feud with Hua Yang Zhen Ren. Who knows when he might scheme against him.
Lin Yi sat in the courtyard of his cave mansion, shaking his head and sighed. This was why he concealed his Alchemy skill.
A disciple with lower- grade spiritual roots, who has escalated from Qi refining level four to level nine within seven or eight years, already demonstrated an astonishing pace.
If he could also refine a Foundation Building Pill, even if he said he had no secrets himself, others wouldn’t believe him.
Maybe in the future, each move he made might be monitored under Green
Jade Zen Ren t s Treasure Mirror, causing his secrets to gradually be revealed.
He’d act as if today’s event never happened. He wouldn’t redeem the lessons from Hua Yang and Wan Jun’s lineage for some time. Once the heat died down, he’d continue to exploit the resources.
At this moment, Zhi Ling, who was playing nearby, seemed to sense that Lin Yi was preoccupied. She ran over to him like a bullet, jumped into his hand, rubbed her head against him continually, and cooed a few times.
Lin Yi laughed and started to stroke Zhi Lings fur, “Little guy, I’m alright. It’s just that there are always some villains who want to harm me.”
He now understood that to enjoy unfettered safety in the Heng Yuan World, he had to reach the limits of the Cultivation World.
Then, he opened the title panel to see the effect of the title he just received.
Considering this title, this incident wasn’t just a figment of his imagination. There must be a considerable danger, just as he speculated.
Lin Yi focused on the title. A line of small characters appeared underneath, “[A
Gentleman Does Not Stand Under A Dangerous Wall]: The host can actively
[Predict Crisis] once every ten days.”
Indeed, as he conjectured, it allowed him to foresee crises. Unlike the other titles, which provide various data, this one was simple and clear: an opportunity to predict a crisis every ten days.
As the saying goes, when a person is unlucky, they tend to complain they did not check their luck before stepping out, Lin Yi could now pre-check if he was safe or not before leaving.
There was only one chance to predict every ten days for now, yet with subsequent upgrades, there might be a chance to predict once daily.
However, he was unsure how this danger prediction worked. Whether it would visualize the potential danger in his mind, he didn’t know.
Lin Yi thought for a bit, then decided to give it a try since he wasn’t planning to leave his cave mansion anyway.
So, he put on the title and clicked on ‘Predict Crisis’ through his thoughts.
Subsequently, his mind suddenly became tranquil, besides that, there was no other abnormality.
After waiting for a while, the ‘Predict Crisis’ option had turned black, unable to be clicked on again.
“So this is it,” Lin Yi shook his head and smiled. It seemed that predicting a crisis would not visualize the danger. He might need to level up for that, currently, he could only predict danger based on his intuition.
There was no danger when his mind was tranquil, and maybe if there was danger, he might feel uneasy.
In the future, before going anywhere, he would use the title to predict the danger first. The title effect didn’t provide a description on predicting how many days of danger he could foresee, assuming only the dangers of the same day could be predicted.
Through this, Lin Yi understood the great utility of the Good Person title, it had a good persuasive effect on people.
Of course, it had to be reasonable. If he said that Gold Sword Zen Ren urgently required his presence, maybe he wouldn’t be believed.
When he establishes his foundation, he needs to eliminate many more villains to enhance the Good Person value. Yet, he would choose to go with his martial brothers. If he planned to go alone, he needed to use the title to predict danger first.
After sitting in the cave mansion for a while, Lin Yi drove his flying boat towards Green Jade Lineage. He had exchanged for two lectures in Tian Yun City’s Lecture Hall earlier. His merits were spent, and if he didn’t attend, they couldn’t be refunded.
Only, the thought of being swindled by Lu Yun Xiang, losing one hundred merits, made him uncomfortable. When [Slacker] was upgraded to the next stage, he needed to ruthlessly fleece this guy.
After he finished his classes at Green Jade Peak, he returned to his cave mansion to continue for alchemy. This wasn’t the time to lay back. He also wished to ascend to the Upper Realm, to witness the scenery from high above.
As for Lu Yun Xiang, after teaching practical magic for one hour, he brought the Qi Refining students back to Inside Liu Yun Sect nervously. Realizing there were no Law Hall or Golden Sword Lineage people waiting for him, only then did he heave a sigh of relief.
Even if Lin Yi did find any clues, given his cautious temperament, he wouldn’t dare to disclose it rashly.
Someone as timid as him couldn’t possess any secrets, his master was too presumptuous in his assumptions.
He felt like when he went back this time, he might be reprimanded for letting a Late Stage Qi Refining disciple escape under his watch. It was a disgrace to the Foundation Building Realm.
Given this disciple’s cautious nature, he probably wouldn’t attend his lectures in the future, He might not even leave the Liu Yun Sect’s gates. After some time, when Lin Yi refined the Foundation Building Pill to a medium grade, he began to refine the Gathering Soul Pill that helps cultivators in the Foundation Building Realm to improve their cultivation levels. The eight-acre herb field outside his cave mansion was also planted with this pill’s needed Spirit Grass.
His cultivation skills didn’t solely rely on attending classes for enhancement, he also practiced on his own.
Because the cultivation offered by attending classes was directly added within the Dantian, skipping the need to cultivate through cultivation techniques.
This way, his comprehension of the Creation Method would stagnate, so he needed to practice occasionally during his free time.
According to the Ten Levels of Qi Refinement, under the influence of the Creation Method, the Foundation Establishment should also have Ten Levels.
When breaking through the foundation, his Dantian had turned golden. He was curious about the change the Creation Method would bring after condensing the Golden Core..
