The Path of Survivor begins with obtaining titles

Lin Yi only observed briefly before starting to build a fictional identity in his mind. If the Nascent Soul True Monarch of other righteous sects didn’t appear, the crisis of the Liu Yun Sect would still be unresolved.

He could only think of ways himself. Though he had the Dan God Secret Realm, he could entirely run away himself or take some people with him to flee, but abandoning the Liu Yun Sect and many disciples as such, he could not overcome this obstacle in his heart.

As for how others follow the Path of Survivor, he didn’t want to manage. His own Path of Survivor, however, was not a ruthless path that exterminated all emotions.

If he had cultivated for so long, survived for so long, just to become a heartless, frigid stone in the future, he would rather not cultivate.

It was necessary to survive when one’s strength was beyond oneself. Now, he was at the Nascent Soul Realm with the mighty power of the Divinity Transformation as well as a fictional identity as a cover, not affecting the smallest bit of karmic fate. If he were to survive again, that would make him truly despicable.

For this third fictional identity, he had already decided for it to be a female in the past. Inside the Liu Yun Hall, he had thought of the appearance of this fictional identity and even used some hidden legends he read in the library to create a background story. This way, he would not arouse suspicion.

Lin Yi took the image he imagined in his mind, and built it into a fictional character, wearing a red robe, exactly like he had imagined.

Afterwards, he made some detail modifications, giving it more character. Satisfied, he nodded his head, making the final determination.

In the creation of the fictional character, there were only male and female options. Even though some details could be modified, the key parts could not be changed to other genders, so creating a big sister-type character was impossible.

The system gave a prompt – once the fictional identity is generated, it cannot be changed.

Lin Yi without hesitation selected confirm, and quickly, the fictional identity was generated, and he could switch to a female form any time.

Afterwards, he took out some paper figures from his storage bag. These were all created during his free time in the Golden Core Stage.

After wiping out the base of the Paper Shadow Sect, he obtained some materials for making paper figures. Later, he gathered a lot of materials in the Xuan Tian Realm, making some occasionally.

When he was practicing, he used substitute materials. After he had grown proficient, he then used the real paper figure materials. Like this, he learnt and practised all the way and now he was able to make mid-range paper figures, not the low-range paper figures owned by the Paper Shadow Sect.

Low-grade paper figures were just empty shells, with no meridians, no Dantian. They could only emit spiritual power fluctuations, unable to unleash any spells. The amount of hits they could withstand was extremely limited.

But mid-range paper figures had a meridian, could unleash simple spells, and were easier to control than low-grade paper figures. More spiritual power could be stored in the meridian, making the paper figure last longer.

However, this paper figure could only emit the fluctuations of the Qi Refining Realm. For his current plan, it was enough.

Some of these paper figures were only formed into bodies and hadn’t been given appearances. Lin Yi painted some female faces on them according to his needs.

These female appearances weren’t beautiful young girls, but rather some eerie old women. This way, it could fit the character of the fictional identity.

The first virtual identity was domineering, the second was regular Pedestrian A, while the third, the female identity, was a mix of righteousness and wickedness with a touch of an eerie aura.

After Lin Yi finished drawing all the paper figures, he sensed the situation outside in the sky above the cave mansion. As he had expected, True Monarch Lin Xiao was constantly retreating under the full offensive of the Nascent Soul True Monarchs of the three heretical sects.

Just at this moment, a laugh came from the sky. “Ha ha ha, how can a battle between righteous and evil be without me, Medicine God Valley? Don’t panic friend Lin Xiao, Dan Yang Zi is here.”

Upon hearing this laugh, an unusual expression appears on Lin Yi’s face. Dan Yang True Monarch from Medicine God Valley had surprisingly come. It was somewhat unexpected.

During the previous attempt to refine the Heaven Pill for Zhou Yun Feng, True Monarch of DanYang was already nearing the age of nine hundred. With only a hundred or so years left before he would reach the Nascent Soul’s lifespan limit of a millennium, he had decided to largely retreat from the world.

Thus, the Liu Yun Sect had to pay a significant price, including Longevity Pills and precious spiritual grass, in addition to accomodations such as allowing his disciples to participate in the Secret Realm courses for free and other extra conditions. Only then did True Monarch of DanYang break his seclusion to assist in alchemy.

Regrettably, they were only able to create a top-grade Resurrection Pill, not enough to fully restore Zhou Yun Feng’s damaged foundation.

At the time, Lin Yi had yet to create and evolve the Foundation Establishment’s tenth layer. Almost a hundred and fifty years have passed since then, and no word of a breakthrough or death has emerged from True Monarch of DanYang in Medicine God Valley.

There are many sects in the Cultivation World that have kept an eye on the Nascent Soul True Monarch approaching the end of his lifespan. If he were to die, this event would definitely not remain a secret.

Medicine God Valley does not have a Golden Core Real Person showing signs of becoming a Nascent Soul, so if True Monarch of DanYang were to die, Medicine God Valley would be removed from the Ten Major Sects and all their resources, including their spiritual energy-rich terrain, will be completely plundered.

Lin Yi used the Eye of Emptiness to observe the situation. It appeared that True Monarch of DanYang had consumed an extremely good quality Longevity Pill that extended his lifespan by forty years before his lifespan limit came.

However, his life force was gradually depleting and he didn’t have many years left.

If he didn’t lend a hand, he could still live for a few more years. But by coming to aid the Liu Yun Sect now and facing several Nascent Soul True Monarchs, he would likely not live much longer if he exerted his full strength.

This was a high-stakes gamble. Despite the disparity of power between the both sides, True Monarch of DanYang chose the Liu Yun Sect, reflecting his righteousness.

Moreover, the good and evil auras perceived through the Eye of Emptiness also proved that True Monarch of DanYang came to help the Liu Yun Sect rather than assisting the heretical sects.

True Monarch of DanYang’s voice was resounding, reaching within the Liu Yun Sect, causing many disciples to reveal delighted expressions while the Golden Core Real Persons breathed a sigh of relief yet again.

They did not expect True Monarch of DanYang, who was on the verge of exhaustion, to also come to their rescue. This truly was a stroke of luck for the Liu Yun Sect.

Lord Star Plucker, who was watching over Jade Illusion Zen Ren in the sky above the Liu Yun Sect, also changed his expression. If the two remaining Nascent Soul True Monarchs of the Righteous Sects also came to assist, they would inevitably have to depart empty-handed.

By then, once the three heretical sects packed up and left, his Canghua Sect would definitely face retribution from the Righteous Sects.

True Monarch of DanYang rushed onto the battlefield with great speed and started to share the offensive pressure from the Nascent Soul True Monarchs of the three heretical sects, which greatly relieved True Monarch Lin Xiao’s pressure. His cold face squeezed out a slight smile, “True Monarch DanYang, your timing couldn’t have been better.”

Seeing True Monarch of DanYang’s arrival, Lord Xuan Ming’s face darkened. His voice hoarse, he said, “Old ghost DanYang, you are still alive… Alas, your life force is dwindling and you won’t live much longer.”

“Instead of waiting for death in the Medicine God Valley, you dare to oppose my three sects. I guess you’re tired of living. If you retreat now, I assure you the Medicine God Valley will remain unscathed. Even if you die, the valley will continue to exist.”

“If not, your Medicine God Valley will cease to exist after this battle. All disciples will be turned into evil spirits, providing nourishment for my Xuan Yin Sect.”

True Monarch of DanYang laughed loudly, “Hahaha, Medicine God Valley might be underpowered, but we are not cowards. Rather than waiting for death in my own sect, I’d prefer to fight you heretical sects. This is also a worthwhile experience in this world.”

Then, he looked at Liu Yun Sect and spoke clearly, “Master Golden Sword, you can rest assured and continue your cultivation. Be quick to break through to the Nascent Soul stage. By then, I’ll be able to witness the next generation Nascent Soul True Monarch of Liu Yun Sect in the final moment of my life.”

Hearing this, Lin Yi showed a look of admiration. True Monarch of DanYang, a one-thousand-year-old creature, with a single sentence, increased the pressure on the Nascent Soul True Monarchs of the three heretical sects.

Even if Master Golden Sword becomes a Nascent Soul, no matter how powerful he is, he could only be at the first layer of the Nascent Soul stage and won’t bring significant change to the battle. But it would be enough to eliminate the reason for these heretical sects’ desire to destroy the Liu Yun Sect.

Of course, the heretical sects wouldn’t bother with any rules being blinded by their thirst for killing. However, the Nascent Soul True Monarchs of the other Righteous Sects would hasten their help if they learned about the breakthrough of Real Person Golden Sword.
