The Path of Survivor begins with obtaining titles

Chapter 686: Chapter 343: Heading to the Serpent Region_2
 

Lin Yi nodded, he could sense that among them was a Fusion Jiao Dragon who was also in Spirit Demon-Slaying City at that time, but faced with White Painting about to be humiliated, it didn’t make the slightest sound.

If nothing unexpected happened, key locations in the Serpent Region were likely installed with the Old Serpent lineage. This old mudfish wanted to build a good relationship with him simply to let its lineage continue basking in glory.

The two Transformation Jiao Dragons showed a hint of shock on their faces, not expecting that the person they had stopped was a Golden Serpent descending from the Immortal Realm.

Watching Lin Yi leave with the two Fusion elders, they exchanged worried glances.

Lin Yi followed the two Fusion Jiao Dragons with his Sword Control, heading towards the center of this region. Along the way, he also kept an eye on the landscapes below.

Indeed, within the Serpent Region, grey industries were everywhere. Numerous heavily made-up women solicited outside their doors; among them were Human race female cultivators as well as Monster Beasts from the Demon Tribe, some even with a human upper body and a demon lower body, putting on quite the exotic show.

The cat girls that Earth’s “two-dimensional” otaku so adored were plentiful here, and he even saw centaur-like female demons; the Cultivation World indeed had wonders beyond measure.

Compared with that, the mermaids rumored to exist in the East Sea Spiritual City on the border with the Sea Tribe didn’t seem at all unusual.

The two Fusion Jiao Dragons, seeing Lin Yi glancing below, couldn’t help but show a knowing expression. “Dragon friend, after you’ve met with the ancestor, if you’re interested, I can take you to the most bustling areas of the Serpent Region. There, you can receive most wonderful pleasures, far superior to these goods below. Whatever race you want, we can find it for you, including the Sea Tribe, or even the Demon race and the Insect Race,” they said.

“Thank you both, but there’s no need,” Lin Yi waved his hand and replied. Humans should not, or at least should not revert to that.

The two Fusion Jiao Dragons chuckled, taking a look at the Golden Serpent’s face that was even more handsome than a Fox Clan member’s. They could tell he was definitely the kind of person who seemed stern in principles, but faced with enough temptation, they didn’t believe he could resist.

Lin Yi, aware of their smiles, could guess what they were thinking. He chuckled too. The title ‘Top Student’ wasn’t obtained for nothing.

If the opportunity arose, he would naturally seek a Dao companion rather than casually visiting the Flower Moon Land to engage in pleasures with Monster Beasts. Right now, the timing wasn’t right yet, and increasing his cultivation levels was more crucial.

After flying for a while, Lin Yi saw a tall structure, only slightly shorter than the Demon Saint Palace, with a huge Jiao Dragon coiled atop its roof, looking very imposing.

The Demon Tribe really loved grandeur, not just the Serpent Clan. Along the way, including the Golden Peng Clan, the Fox Clan, and other areas, there were grand palatial buildings.

“Dragon friend, this is our Serpent Palace. Compared to the other four tribes’ palaces, we have quite an advantage,” the two Fusion Jiao Dragons briefly explained.

Lin Yi didn’t speak. As they got closer, he also saw the entire view of the Serpent Palace. The square in front of the palace had many pillars, all coiled with Jiao Dragons, and the eyes were made of Supreme-grade Spirit Stones.

The palace doors were open. Before entering, the two Fusion Jiao Dragons spoke up, “Friend, before entering our Serpent Palace, you must also take on a demon form. It’s to remind us that we are always demons, not humans.”

Lin Yi didn’t refuse, and transformed directly into a Golden Jiao Dragon. Under the sunlight, his gleaming golden form made the two Fusion Jiao Dragons next to him envious.

After transforming into his demon form, he was the first to walk into the palace. Inside, the decor was even more luxurious. The dragon scales on the pillars were made of a rare metal, a precious material for the Human race’s Artifact Refining.

This made Lin Yi contemplate how the Serpent Palace was even more luxurious than the Demon Saint Palace. With resources spent in such a way, there was no way the Serpent Clan could develop.

At that moment, inside the palace, there were many Jiao Dragons present. Seeing Lin Yi as a Golden Jiao Dragon enter, surprise was written on their faces.

The Serpent Palace, built at great expense by the Serpent Clan, seemed lackluster compared to this Golden Jiao Dragon. The precious metal revealing a golden color paled in comparison to the Golden Jiao Dragon’s scales.

Apart from its golden body, what’s more important is that this golden serpent dragon has four claws, indicating that it has the bloodline of a true dragon within. With their two claws, they both felt somewhat ashamed to show themselves.

When Lin Yi saw the serpent dragons in front of him, he almost burst out laughing. Each one was coiled around a pillar, with only a dragon head swinging about, it was as comically ridiculous as it gets.

He arrived at the very front, where there was only one tall pillar. The old serpent dragon was also coiled around it, which was no better than taking human form and everyone having a seat. Must serpent dragons really spiral around pillars?

“Long Ao pays respects to the serpent elder,” Lin Yi said slowly as he looked up at the old serpent dragon.

“Fellow Dragon is too polite. I never expected you to be the first to seek me out, it’s an utmost surprise. Those present in this hall are the finest of the Serpent Clan. You should all acquaint yourselves. This is Fellow Dragon Long Ao, who has come to the Spirit Profound Realm for training,” the Serpent Demon Ancestor said with a smile.

Originally, he had prepared for Lin Yi to be the last one to come to him, but unexpectedly, he ended up being the first.

Now, he could imagine the shocked expressions of the other three old fellows. Just thinking about it felt comfortable.

“Greetings, Fellow Dragon Long Ao (Elder),” following the Serpent Demon Ancestor’s words, the serpent dragons coiled around the pillars uniformly twisted their bodies toward Lin Yi’s side and greeted him loudly.

“Greetings, Fellow Daoists,” Lin Yi responded calmly.

At this time, the old serpent ancestor brought up the previous topic again, “Fellow Dragon Long Ao, my Serpent Clan has been bullied by the four tribes, which is also why we don’t dare to lend a hand to that white serpent. If you would accept my entrustment and lead the Serpent Clan, I would be able to rest in peace after death.”

“Serpent Elder, sorry, there are some things I don’t want to repeat a second time. Please forgive me, Elder. I have come today only to ask you some questions,” Lin Yi said flatly. The Serpent Clan could be said to be utterly rotten, even if there are a minority who don’t want to be associated with the filth, they are indeed few.

“Although you, Fellow Dragon, descended from the Immortal Realm with an extraordinary origin, speaking to an ancestor of the Serpent Clan in such a manner seems a bit rude,” a green-colored Fusion serpent at the back spoke up with some displeasure, his aura indicating that he was likely from the same lineage as the old serpent.

“I don’t find anything rude about it. You’ll get used to it,” Lin Yi said indifferently. He dared to confront the Fox Clan, so facing the weakest Serpent Clan among the five races, being overly polite might lead others to think him weak and exploitable.

The green-colored Fusion serpent’s face showed a hint of anger; among the Serpent Clan, no one had ever dared to speak to him like this.

Just as he was about to explode, the Serpent Demon Ancestor above spoke, “Alright, all of you back down.”

Under the Demon Ancestor’s command, the serpent dragons in the hall all flew out one by one.

“Fellow Dragon has come to ask questions, and I shall gladly impart my knowledge. Come, follow me to the back,” the Serpent Demon Ancestor said with a smile. The rejection was just a test, and there was no harm done. Now, he intended to form as good a relationship as possible.

In the cave mansion behind, Lin Yi, having donned the ‘Top Student’ title, laid out his questions, receiving careful instruction from the Serpent Demon Ancestor.

From his experience, at the Refining Void Realm, with further study, the title should also ascend to the fifth stage: after ‘Top Student’ comes ‘Scholar God.’

With the effect of the ‘Top Student’ title and under the Serpent Demon Ancestor’s guidance, each completed course phase brought continuous increases in his cultivation levels.

That’s how Lin Yi stayed with the Serpent Clan for several months, without returning to the Golden Peng Clan’s cave mansion. He settled down in the old serpent’s mansion immediately, and apart from brief daily rests, he consistently sought answers and guidance from the old serpent.

Having caught the opportunity to woolgather, he couldn’t afford to be lenient. The old serpent’s life was not long, and he had to make haste; if not now, when?

The Monster Ancestors of the other three tribes, seeing Lin Yi stay with the Serpent Clan for such a long time, were puzzled. Did the old serpent have so much to teach?
