Chapter 443: Chapter 233: Awakening Bloodline Project of Baihua _2

“Pft, Uncle Master Zhou, are you saying that I not only have to get your disciples free lessons, but I also have to cook for you?” Lin Yi rolled his eyes and said, somewhat speechless.

“The capable one should bear more. After all, even the spirit beasts in the Dan God Secret Realm can’t resist the desire to taste the delicacies you cook.” Zhou Yun Feng mischievously added, eliciting laughter from the crowd.

After the discussion, Zhou Yun Feng selected over a hundred disciples on the Golden Sword Peak as the initial foundation for the Jing Yun Lineage.

The majority of them were in the middle stage of Qi refinement. He couldn’t possibly take all the exceptional Perfect Qi Refining disciples, could he?

The news of Zhou Yun Feng achieving the Golden Core spread through the entire sect and the Cultivation World at a breakneck speed. Many Golden Core masters were not surprised about it.

After all, he was Gold Sword Zen Ren’s top disciple, the recipient of the elixir bestowed by Dan God Zhang Dao Xuan, and known for his calm and steady style, they reasoned it was highly likely he’d break through to become a Golden Core master before his lifespan ran out.

Most sects didn’t care about it. More than ten years ago, Liu Yun Sect’s Master of Bi Hai passed away, having another Golden Core was kind of like making up for it.

However, it was rumored that Master of Bi Hai was at the intermediate stage of Golden Core and was likely to have reached the later stages. In contrast, Zhou Yun Feng had just achieved the Golden Core, so in the short term, he had no substantial combat power.

Within the Liu Yun Sect, ordinary disciples left behind by the Bi Hai Lineage worried as much as they hailed the news. They were happy that Zhou Yun Feng might possibly continue the Bi Hai Lineage.

Their concern was that they, as ordinary disciples, might be purged. Although they would be reassigned by the Sect, their status, and their treatment, would undoubtedly decline, and they would not receive attention.

A month later, the ceremony for Zhou Yun Feng’s achievement of the Golden Core and the establishment of the Jing Yun Lineage took place on what was formerly known as Jade Sea Peak, now renamed Jing Yun Peak.

Six of the Ten Major Righteous Sects and the He Huan Sect received invitations. They sent Golden Core masters to congratulate. Aside from these, a large number of intermediate sects came to the Liu Yun Sect to offer their congratulations.

The previously desolate Jade Sea Peak, now Jing Yun Peak, had become bustling with excitement.

After celebrating Zhou Yun Feng’s accomplishment in achieving the Golden Core, Green Jade Zen Ren conducted the lineage opening ceremony. He handed over the control of the entire Jing Yun Lineage’s formations to Zhou Yun Feng, melding it into his divine sense. With a thought, Zhou Yun Feng could activate and close any formations of the Jing Yun Lineage.

The former Jade Sea Peak was officially renamed Jing Yun Peak, and all the other peaks also erased their names. They were to be named by the future Foundation Building disciples. Hence, nearly all traces of Master Bi Hai had been eliminated.

Lin Yi watched all this with mixed feelings. The strength of the Bi Hai Lineage can be considered the weakest across the Liu Yun Sect. This guy probably devoted all his mind to investigating the Creation Method, practically ignoring increasing the strength of his lineage’s disciples.

Through the Eye of Emptiness, he observed other sect Golden Core masters and his own fate fruits. Most of the Golden Core masters of other sects had no connection with his fate fruit, which was normal.

However, light red fate lines representing malicious intent toward him connected Lin Yi to a few Golden Core masters.

Among them, he also noticed Foundation Building cultivators surveying the surroundings with discerning eyes. These guys probably had some ulterior motives.

Pity, during Master Bi Hai’s demise, he hadn’t taken anything from him, not even the storage ring, which was swallowed by the Red Lotus fire.

If he had, he could have used some items inside the storage pouch to trace the connections of fate fruit and find potential assassins of the Creation Method.

Of course, his current action was genuinely safe. After all, Master Bi Hai’s fall could be attributed to the Red Lotus fire’s attack. If he killed another person like Master Bi Hai, he would undoubtedly face retaliation from this organization.

When the Jing Yun Lineage opened, the previous disciples present were the happiest. They were temporarily kept. However, if found guilty of any misconduct in the future, they would be expelled from the Jing Yun Lineage or even Liu Yun Sect.

However, this was far better than directly expelling them and reallocating resources. Although the Jing Yun faction had just been established, it was backed by the Golden Sword faction. As the saying goes, large trees provide excellent shade.

If they became official disciples of the Jing Yun faction, in the future, disciples from other peaks will no longer dare to look down on them.

The two ceremonies concluded smoothly. On the territory of the Liu Yun Sect, nobody dared to cause trouble for such an important event.

Afterward, each hall of the Jing Yun Lineage started to operate. At the same time, they also initiated plans to recruit disciples from outside.

Of course, Zhou Yun Feng did not lower the requirements due to a lack of disciples. Those who desired to join the Jing Yun Lineage needed to have at least a Medium Grade Spirit Root, and priority was given to those who excelled in both Swordsmanship and Alchemy Dao.

Inside the Liu Yun Sect, everything returned to normal once again. Lin Yi naturally immersed himself back into cultivation. His current age was over eighty. His plan was to reach the Nascent Soul Realm before the age of one hundred and fifty.

In seventy years, perhaps by that time, he might surpass Master Golden Sword and become a Nascent Soul True Monarch even earlier.

He was planning for the most difficult circumstances. If via the regular nine-tier cultivation realm, he was capable of achieving the Nascent Soul in thirty to fifty years.

However, what he practiced was the Creation Method, which required him to evolve ten stages of the Golden Core to achieve the Creation Nascent Soul, a task that is much more difficult than that of regular cultivators.

Nevertheless, he did not fear any of these challenges. Cultivation was supposed to face difficulties head-on. Having chosen the Creation Method, he must practice it to the end, to see if he could become an immortal being of creation.

While cultivating in the secret realm, Lin Yi still regularly fed the spirit beasts and monster beasts inside it, including the three guardian beasts of the Giant Spirit Tree Herb Garden and the White Painting, a huge white python in the Misty Forest Gorge.

In the past ten years, his feedings triggered the effects of the Dung Cleaner title, but the awakened bloodlines’ density was relatively low and couldn’t compare to Zhi Ling under the Lucky State.

The Dung Cleaner Title, after advancing to its third stage, did not show much change in the effect related to awakening bloodlines. However, based on his verification, the awakened bloodline was denser than that of the Intermediate title when triggered.

The current effect of the [Advanced Dung Cleaner] was:Animal Affinity +50, Favorability Increase +90%, Success rate of feeding unfamiliar animals +90%, Spirit Pet Column +4(Long-term fed animals have a 20% chance of awakening their ancestral bloodlines).

Through his interactions with Pill Immortal Master, he found out that Bai Hua, the python in the Misty Forest Gorge, had failed twice. If it failed again, it would reach its lifespan limit and wouldn’t have the energy to attempt a fourth time.

Lin Yi felt that he should find an opportunity to help Bai Hua awaken a certain level of the Jiao Dragon Bloodline. With this, Bai Hua would have better chances when going through the Tribulation of Lightning.

As for directly awakening the pure Jiao Dragon Bloodline and transforming into a Jiao Dragon, even though he possessed eight opportunities for the [Great Compassion] experience and hundreds of thousands of Virtue Points, he still dared not try.

Several years after Zhou Yun Feng achieved his Golden Core, while Lin Yi was studying formations in the Dan God’s Cave Mansion, the teaching Dan God Zhang Dao Xuan suddenly paused, looked into the distance, and let out a gentle sigh.

“Master, what’s wrong?” He couldn’t help but ask, as only a few things could make the Pill Immortal Master sigh.

Zhang Dao Xuan didn’t hide anything and slowly said, “Bai Hua’s cultivation has reached the Perfection Realm once again. It’s estimated that after some time, it will be making its third attempt to go through the Heavenly Tribulation. If it fails this time, it can only wait for the end of its lifespan and perish within the Secret Realm.”

Without waiting for Lin Yi’s reply, he continued, “I’m going to take a look at the Misty Forest Gorge. Would you like to come with me?”

“Of course, I’ll go with you.” Lin Yi nodded without hesitation. It seemed that he would have to speed up the plan of helping Bai Hua awaken its bloodline.

If Bai Hua failed again in going through the Heavenly Tribulation this time, there would be no next time.
