In the end, Zhou Yun Feng looked towards Lin Yi and deeply saluted him, “Little junior brother, thank you for the hope you brought me, leading me from despair to rebirth.”
Lin Yi also quickly returned the gesture, waving his hand and saying, “Elder brother, it’s all a happy accident. I didn’t expect that I could fulfill it. It seems Elder Dan God must have been touched by your deeds.”
“As I mentioned before, if you want to thank me, then make haste to attain the Golden Core. By then, I’ll have an elder brother with a Golden Core to back me up.”
At this point, the Drunken Immortal couldn’t help but speak up, “Yun Feng, your junior brother is right. While the Heaven Pill bestowed by Elder Dan God has rejuvenated your body, you only have forty years left to attain the Golden Core.”
“Therefore, you must prepare for your secluded cultivation as soon as possible in order to become a Golden Core cultivator at the earliest date.”
“Thank you, Uncle Master Drunken Immortal. I will take your advice to heart,” Zhou Yun Feng thanked. He had decided to barricade himself in secluded cultivation until he attained the Golden Core. Otherwise, he would waste this hard-earned opportunity for rebirth.”
Among the eleven Golden Core cultivators of the Liu Yun Sect, many eagerly anticipated the appearance of a new Golden Core Real Person within the sect, which would greatly enhance the overall strength of the sect.”
However, Hua Yang and Wan Jun Zen Ren, who were not from the home turf, were quietly solemn. As the strength of the local Golden Core members increased, these outsiders would be pushed more and more to the periphery, especially considering their own weak powers.”
Otherwise, they would not have been attracted by the conditions offered by the Liu Yun Sect and chose to join.”
They glanced at each other, feeling it was time to consider their next move.”
Green Jade Zen Ren said with a laugh, “Having witnessed Zhou Yun Feng’s return to the path of cultivation, we should also take our leave. Our presence heas old fellows would dampen the festive atmosphere of Golden Sword Peak.”
Upon saying this, he and other Golden Core Real People transformed into streaks of light and left Golden Sword Peak.”
The disciples of Golden Sword Peak on the plaza were also bowing in salute to these departing Golden Core Real People.”
After the departure of the Golden Core Real People, the entire Golden Sword Peak once again erupted in cheers. Many disciples even spontaneously lifted Zhou Yun Feng and tossed him into the air.
“You’ve tossed the wrong person! You should toss your Uncle Master Lin!” Zhou Yun Feng shouted from the air.
Immediately, some disciples hurriedly walked to Lin Yi and threw him into the air without a second word.
“Elder brother, this is like repaying kindness with animosity!” Lin Yi complained while suspended in the air, which elicited laughter from the surrounding disciples.
“Ahem…” At this point, a cough transmitted from above in the sky.
The disciples of Golden Sword Peak remembered that even though the other Golden Core Real People had left, their own Master of Golden Sword Faction was still in the sky. They immediately quieted down.
“Carry on. Yun Feng, have your junior brothers and sisters join you at the Golden Sword Hall later.” The Gold Sword Zen Ren waved his hand with a smile, gave his instruction, then disappeared into a streak of golden light.
After Gold Sword Zen Ren’s departure, the entire plaza was engulfed in joyous celebrations, with a thousand disciples surrounding Zhou Yun Feng, celebrating his return to the path of cultivation.
After one hour, Zhou Yun Feng, leading his junior brothers and sisters, arrived at the Golden Sword Hall. “Disciples pay their respects to the Master.”
“All rise.” Gold Sword Zen Ren waved his hand, then turned to Zhou Yun Feng, “Yun Feng, you have replenished your foundation. Thus, I will hand the affairs of the Golden Sword lineage over to Tian Sheng temporarily. Finish the handover quickly and then go into seclusion to comprehend the Golden Core.”
“Yes, Master.” Zhou Yun Feng responded, raising his fist.
Afterwards, the gaze of Gold Sword Zen Ren shifted to Lin Yi. He smiled and said, “Lin Yi, your contribution to the replenishment of your elder brother’s foundation cannot be denied. If there is anything you desire, do not hesitate to ask.”
“Master, I don’t need anything for now. My elder brothers and sisters have been continuously giving me pills and cultivation resources. I still haven’t used them all.” Lin Yi pondered for a moment before shaking his head.
Gold Sword Zen Ren couldn’t help but smile. Lin Yi, his disciple, was the one who gave him the least worry. He often secluded himself for cultivation, and over the decades, they had probably met less than a hundred times.
“You’ve made such a great contribution. As your master, I can’t just stand by and do nothing. Since you already have a flying sword for attack, how about I make a defensive magical weapon for you?”
“Thank you, Master.” Lin Yi thanked with clasped hands. In reality, he didn’t use defensive magical weapons much. However, he couldn’t refuse the good intention of his master.
Moreover, if the magical weapon could appear on the title panel in the future, it would also be upgradable.
After achieving the Golden Core and gaining the power of Wind-Thunder, he used the Wind-Thunder element within his body to nourish the Wind Thunder Sword, allowing it to successfully appear on the panel.
The Pill Furnace needed to constantly refine pills to gain experience, but the flying swords didn’t gain experience simply from the use of swordsmanship. Instead, it required nourishment from the Wind-Thunder element.
“This is just a small gift from me. In the future, if you have any requests, you can bring them up.” Gold Sword Zen Ren waved his hand. The merit Lin Yi had established could impact the entire Golden Sword Peak, and even the whole Liu Yun Sect.
After Gold Sword Zen Ren left, numerous senior brothers and sisters gathered around Lin Yi, asking what cultivation resources he needed, so they can be delivered later.
Li Yuan Qing even asked if he wanted to eat the meat of a Golden Core Realm Monster Beast. He’d figure out a way to kill one and bring it back.
Lin Yi had no doubt about the authenticity of Li Yuan Qing’s words. As long as he said he wanted to eat it, his third senior brother would definitely do whatever it took, pay any price, to kill a Golden Core Great Monster.
“Seniors, I have enough resources for now. You don’t have to send anything else.” He quickly declined.
“What our junior brother needs the most right now is a Dao companion. Think about any beautiful female cultivators around you and introduce them to him.” At this moment, Qi Jing Yu jokingly remarked.
The crowd discussed with teasing faces. Suddenly one of them realized that Lin Yi was no longer in sight and said, “Hey, where did our junior brother go, he ran away…”
After running back to his Cave Mansion, Lin Yi sorted out the tasks he needed to do next. Now that his eldest senior brother’s foundation had been fully restored, it was time for him to go to the Fire Hazard Zone for an investigation.
This was not only for Zhi Ling, but also to fulfill a promise he made when he returned Fire Feather to Fire Fierce. He had made a promise to bring it back.
At present, Fire Fierce was already dead, but perhaps Fire Feather was still alive. Thus, no matter what, he had to make a trip.
Of course, if the danger there far exceeds the range of his abilities, he would have to postpone it.
Time passed and more than a month had elapsed. Zhou Yun Feng handed over all affairs of the Golden Sword Peak to Wang Tian Sheng, the head of the Affairs Hall. The teaching of swordsmanship was entrusted to Li Yuan Qing, and some other disciples also took responsibility for various affairs.
As for Lin Yi, he was not asked to manage any tasks. After all, this junior brother had lower-grade spiritual roots. He had been secluded in cultivation for years, and only managed to raise his cultivation to the fifth layer of Foundation Establishment. It remained to be seen whether he could achieve the Golden Core in the next hundred years or so.
He didn’t want to waste this disciple’s cultivation time due to some affairs. It was enough that he was teaching a free class for the Golden Sword Peak disciples every three months.
Zhou Yun Feng chose his seclusion in one of the cave mansions in Golden Sword Peak. This was a place with the richest spiritual energy, making it the best choice for breakthroughs in cultivation.
On the day he entered the cave mansion for his secluded cultivation, all direct disciples, including Foundation Building cultivators, came to bid farewell. After this seclusion, the next time they saw each other would be who knows when.
Since it was a closed-door cultivation, Zhou Yun Feng absolutely would not leave the seclusion easily before achieving Golden Core, unless there was a earth-shaking incident in the Golden Sword Peak or within the Liu Yun Sect.
After Zhou Yun Feng secluded himself, Lin Yi also put up a sign to indicate that he was in seclusion, and started to prepare to go to the Fire Hazard Zone.
Of course, he would not just travel there normally but transported through the functions of the Dan God Secret Realm. If he went there by himself, he could lure in some cultivators with ill intentions towards him and kill them, but there would also be risks involved.
Moreover, this time he only planned to enter the Fire Hazard Zone to check whether Fire Feather was still alive. It wouldn’t be beneficial to attract too much trouble.
