The Path of Survivor begins with obtaining titles

Chapter 589: Chapter 300: Refining the Primordial Spirit_1
Throughout the past hundred years, Lin Yi spent the majority of his time in the Dan God Secret Realm under the tutelage of Zhang Dao Xuan, rapidly increasing his cultivation levels.

His current cultivation level had reached the Great Perfection of the tenth layer of Nascent Soul Realm, a stage he achieved after twenty years of creating and evolving the Golden Core in ten stages.

Commonly, creating and evolving the tenth layer of the Nascent Soul would take three to four times that. However, he only needed around forty years.

The most significant contribution was his title, which, besides the usual effects, had been under the Lucky State of the Great Mercy Title four times. This consumed nearly five hundred thousand worth of Virtue Points.

Adding that to the over seven hundred thousand from the three Divine Skills, the Virtue Points he obtained from Xuan Yin Sect now only totalled to more than eight hundred thousand.

Besides the role of the title, he also gained some insights from comprehending Divine Skills. These insights significantly assisted him in creation and evolution.

The creation in the tenth layer of the Golden Core was about inversion, while that of the Nascent Soul in the tenth layer was about fusion of the three infants.

The three Nascent Souls unite into one. The Yang Nascent Soul, represented by the Upper Field of Elixir, and the Yin Nascent Soul, represented by the Lower Field of Elixir, broke through the void in an instant with the golden breath extended from the Nascent Soul in the Middle Field of Elixir, and fused with it.

Lin Yi felt a bit surprised when the three infants became one. After all, in his imagination, the state of these three Nascent Souls could continue independently, and each cultivates their independent Primordial Spirit. At the Body Fusion Realm, they would then merge into one with the Nascent Soul.

However, on careful analysis, merging the three infants into one is extremely necessary.

The Primordial Spirit cultivated from the Nascent Soul represents the true self. If three Primordial Spirits were separately cultivated out of the three Nascent Souls, there would then be three equivalents of the true self which would lead to extreme confusion.

Now that the three infants have become one, after achieving divinity, one Primordial Spirit can be cultivated and fused with his Divine Soul, transforming the Divine Soul into the Primordial Soul. This is much more normal.

The ten layer process of the Nascent Soul may not seem as significant as the inversion effect of the tenth layer of the Golden Core, but it is the essential path to Divinity Transformation.

If he did not attain the tenth layer of the Nascent Soul and directly broke through at the ninth layer, then the three Nascent Souls would each have an independent Primordial Spirit. This would be equivalent to having a split personality, and could possibly lead to disputes among the three Primordial Spirits for control over the body.

According to the Immortal Cultivation Chronicles, the Nascent Soul is the crystallization of one’s cultivation, and the Primordial Spirit is the crystallization of spiritual cultivation, born out of the true self of the Nascent Soul.

After achieving divinity, the Nascent Soul will still exist. Through cultivation, it will gradually resemble one’s physical form.

The Primordial Spirit is cultivated from the Nascent Soul, not a direct transformation of the Nascent Soul.

This is because the body alone cannot hold vast amounts of energy. Hence, after Foundation Establishment, the Spiritual Power in the whole body condenses into the Golden Core, which then nurtures the Nascent Soul.

The form of the Nascent Soul will continue until the Body Fusion Realm, where it will then merge with the body to prepare for the final Crossing Tribulation.

After Crossing Tribulation, the spiritual power in the body will transform into Celestial Energy, undergoing a fundamental transformation.

Since the creation and evolution of the tenth layer of the Nascent Soul, where three infants become one, and achieving Great Perfection in cultivation, Lin Yi has perceived the Deification Realm for about twenty years. According to his deduction, breaking through within the remaining forty years of his Golden Core lifespan should not pose an issue.

If he can smoothly reach the Deification Realm within five hundred years, it would be a miracle in the Cultivation World.

Five hundred years is just the lifespan of the Golden Core. Many Cultivators do not even reach the Nascent Soul Realm, yet he has become the True Venerable Of Divinization within the lifespan of his Golden Core.

Out of the one-thousand-year lifespan of the Nascent Soul, he only used half to become the True Venerable Of Divinization. Upon achieving that, the longevity would reach two thousand years. In other words, he has fifteen hundred years to cultivate from Deification to Refining Void.

Lin Yi did not hide his realm, but revealed it to his Mentor Pill Immortal Master.

Zhang Dao Xuan was filled with shock. The accomplishment of attaining the Great Perfection of Nascent Soul’s ninth layer and creating and evolving the tenth layer in only slightly over four hundred years was simply unbelievable and utterly dreamlike.

However, Lin Yi managed to achieve it, and there was a possibility he could even become the True Venerable Of Divinization within five hundred years.

Back in his day, his Original Body had access to the Spirit Grass Pills of a Secret Realm and took over eight hundred years to break through to the Deification and ascend to Upper Realm. In comparison, Lin Yi was an absolute monster.

Others Cultivate against heaven’s will and face endless hardship, yet it seems like this lad was Heaven’s favoured son, always having things go his way.

Amid the shock, he also advised Lin Yi to prepare for ascension in advance, including making detailed arrangements for both his identity within Liu Yun Sect and as the Eastern Sect Master of the Sun Moon Divine Sect, so as not to raise any suspicions.

Lin Yi smiled and assured that he had a plan in mind. He would ascend with the identity of Eastern Sect Master, while his main body would be deemed dead. Also, in the Xuan Tian Realm, he already found a skeleton substitute for himself that was of the Golden Core Realm and approximately his age, enabling a seamless transition.

The thought that his main identity would cease to exist in forty years filled him with a sense of loss.

After all, Liu Yun Sect was where he undertook his path to cultivation, from Qi Refinement to Foundation Establishment, then to Golden Core and Nascent Soul Realm. Now, he was about to break through to the Deification Realm.

While developing the Sun Moon Divine Sect and Yun Yi Peak, Lin Yi did not forget the Spirit Beast Dojo in the Dan God Secret Realm. Due to his status as a high-level teacher, he was able to establish teacher-student relationships with the animals. Therefore, in the past hundred years, the cultiv
