There was no guarantee that there would not be people forming cliques to make trouble for him because of Huang Xiaotao.
Once things got out of hand, there would definitely be new problems. This was the last thing Lin Yi wanted to see right now.
As a result, it was better to keep a low profile for now. If those people could not find him, there would naturally be no trouble. They could not make trouble for Huang Xiaotao anyway. With Wang Xinyan watching from the side, if they dared to pester Huang Xiaotao, the Divine Nun of the Eastern Sea would probably suppress them in a matter of minutes. Ling Yuanqing and the others would not have any objections.
However, even if he hid in the inn, Lin Yi could not just sit around and do nothing. He was in a hurry to increase his strength. To him, the best way to increase his strength was to refine a golden core.
Apart from treasures like the Star Ink Milk and the Infant Ginseng, he also had the two Golden Core Fruits of Myriad Crossing that he had obtained from the man in gray.
The fruit wasn't very useful to Xinyan, who was at the initial phase of the nascent soul stage, but to Huang Xiaotao, who was also at the initial phase of the golden core stage, it was a great item that could quickly increase her strength. Lin Yi had planned to leave both fruits for Xiaotao, but Xinyan stopped him.
"A golden core is very rare for regular people, but it's basically something easily obtainable for our Establishing Mountain Master. She's already prepared it, so sister Xiaotao doesn't have to worry about it at all. It's unnecessary for you to give it to her. You might as well keep it for yourself." Those were Wang Xinyan's exact words. If it were not for the fact that she did not have any decent heavenly resources on her, she probably would have given them all to Lin Yi instead. She was the Divine Nun of the Eastern Sea's beloved disciple after all.
With two Golden Core Fruits of Myriad Crossing, Lin Yi was confident he could refine two golden cores if nothing went wrong. If he was lucky, he might even make more. However, he still had to gather other supplementary spiritual herbs before that. After all, the Golden Core Fruit of Myriad Crossing was only the main material for refining a golden core.
After going up to the Heaven-Stage Island, after more than a year of deliberate cultivation, the storage of Elixirs in the space of Lin Yi's jade pendant had already begun to take shape. Not only did it cover many common Elixirs, but also some rare Elixirs on the market. Now, he planned to refine Golden Elixirs. Just relying on Lin Yi's own reserves, he would be able to meet seventy to eighty percent of his needs.
As for the rest of the spiritual herbs, Lin Yi believed that they could be replenished at the spiritual herb stores and the Chamber of Commerce in Zhen Duan City. He just needed to make a trip outside.
For safety's sake, Lin Yi put on the Thousand Silk Mask before he went out and changed back to Wu Fu's appearance. This was a completely unfamiliar face in Zhen Duan City, so no one would be suspicious.
As expected. Lin Yi's appearance as a martial artist was too common and too ordinary, especially in Zhen Duan City where experts gathered. This kind of ordinary martial artist who didn't look like a genius wouldn't catch the attention of the people around him. They didn't even bother to take another look at him, let alone pay attention to him.
After successfully replenishing the remaining spiritual herbs, Lin Yi recuperated and immediately began to refine the Golden Elixirs. With his previous experience, Lin Yi was familiar with refining the Golden Elixirs again. Coupled with the automatic alchemy of the Divine Armament Cauldron, accidents could be avoided to a great extent.
This time was no exception. The entire refining process was under Lin Yi's control from beginning to end, and finally, the best quality Golden Elixirs were successfully produced. However, what made Lin Yi slightly regretful was that there were only two.
Although there were often surprises when refining the Foundation Establishment Pill in the past, looking back, whether it was the two Ten Thousand Crossing Golden Elixir Fruits that Lin Yi found from the man in gray, or the auxiliary materials he bought later, the quality could only be regarded as average.
In this case, it was already quite rare to be able to successfully produce two best quality Golden Elixirs. It was impossible to produce more than this. There was no such good thing in the world.
Looking at the two freshly refined best quality Golden Elixirs in his hands, Lin Yi was a little excited. To be honest, because of Wang Xinyan and the stimulation of so many super experts in Morning Star Academy, his desire for strength was much stronger than ever.
Moreover, now that Huang Xiaotao was gone, it meant that the strongest Frenzy Fire Eight Trigrams Palm Strike could no longer be used. This was like suddenly breaking an arm. Even if Lin Yi had other powerful trump cards, he still couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable and even a little afraid.
After all, in terms of strength, he was only in the early Golden Core stage. Whether it was the Zhen Duan Sea or the Wei Arc Sea, they were all places where dragons and snakes mingled. There were many Nascent Soul stage masters everywhere. Lin Yi's strength was simply not enough. If he really encountered trouble, it would even be a problem for him to protect himself.
Now that the best quality Golden Elixir was ready, he didn't have the slightest bit of hesitation.
Holding his breath and concentrating, he swallowed the best quality Golden Elixir. Lin Yi suddenly felt as if the meridians in his body had been ignited in an instant. It began to burn violently, and the pain was unbearable.
Pain leads to impassability. This saying was also applicable on the path of cultivation. Once the meridians in the body were in pain, it meant that they were undergoing a transformation. Perhaps they were growing stronger, or perhaps they were going berserk. It was just a matter of degree.
Lin Yi had already used the Golden Elixir once before, but at that time it was to break through to the Golden Core stage. Moreover, it was a perfect breakthrough with the help of the Star Inkstone. That kind of earth-shattering change was completely different from this kind of simple leveling up.
At that time, the thing that brought the greatest pain to Lin Yi was the Star Inkstone, but now it was simply the burning of his meridians. However, when he really experienced it, the feeling now was not much better than that time.
However, Lin Yi could only silently clench his teeth and endure it. He didn't dare to be discouraged, because at this moment, the true qi in his meridians had skyrocketed. Once he was discouraged, it would easily lead to serious consequences. Once it was out of control, it was not impossible for it to evolve into berserk.
This kind of burning went on for a full four hours. Even with Lin Yi's endurance, he began to feel a little overwhelmed. The burning pain in his meridians finally began to slowly weaken. When it completely returned to normal, Lin Yi suddenly discovered that his meridians were actually a lot stronger than before, and the degree of the true qi was also more abundant than before!
"This realm is …" Feeling the new and powerful strength in his body, Lin Yi was immediately stunned. He cried out in disbelief, "Middle Golden Core stage!"
He had clearly only used one Golden Elixir. Even if it was of the best quality, Lin Yi originally did not think that he could break through to a higher realm. In his original expectations, if he could reach the peak of the early Golden Core stage, it would be considered a great success! Floating Astronomy.
