Struggling to Survive with Regression Power in the Primordial Saint Sect

The Law Refinement Secret Realm, a superior secret realm of the Primordial Saint Sect.

In the past, Lü Yang had lined up for decades just to use this secret realm, which showed how highly sought-after it was, almost constantly occupied.

However, with his current status and position, he no longer needed to queue.

After greeting True Person Yinshan, a decree was issued, and the Law Refinement Secret Realm was immediately sealed for thirty years, sent directly to his dao arena to assist in his cultivation.

”This is the benefit of having someone backing you.”

Lü Yang sighed with emotion on his face, for although he was a newly advanced True Person, ordinary new True Persons did not enjoy such privileges, all thanks to True Person Chong Guang.

As the only Great True Person in the sect currently planning to ascend and prove his dao at the peak of Foundation Establishment, True Person Chong Guang not only had peerless cultivation but was also highly valued by True Lord Qing Cheng Fei Xue, making him the number one person below the True Lords in the Primordial Saint Sect, and Lü Yang was now his trusted follower.

How could such a connection be insignificant?

”Thank you, fellow daoist.”

Looking at True Person Yinshan, who had personally delivered the secret realm, Lü Yang cupped his hands in a friendly manner, ”I wonder if True Person Chong Guang has any tasks for me recently?”

”Don’t be anxious, Yuan Tu.”

True Person Yinshan smiled slightly, ”The priority for you and me is still to first improve your cultivation. Once you succeed, Senior Brother will naturally not forget you.”

Although he said this, True Person Yinshan was clearly very satisfied with Lü Yang’s proactive attitude.

After chatting for a while, True Person Yinshan took the initiative to leave, as he had already obtained the 【Heavenly Corpse Evil Qi】 and was preparing to go into seclusion to refine it and break through to mid-Foundation Establishment.

As Lü Yang watched him leave, the smile on his face immediately faded.

”Sure enough, he hasn’t broken through yet?”

In his sixth lifetime, after thirty years of seclusion, Lü Yang had emerged to find that True Person Yinshan had already reached mid-Foundation Establishment, making thirty years the dividing line.

After thirty years, True Person Chong Guang would probably come calling.

Undoubtedly, this was both an opportunity and a risk.

If he wanted to profit from it, he had to push his strength to the limit within these thirty years.

”Let’s start with the Qi-Devouring Insect!”

With a single thought, Lü Yang flew down into the Law Refinement Secret Realm, while suddenly recalling a prodigy from his sixth lifetime.

”Wang Boyuan”

He had created the Qi Observation Technique, observing fate through human luck, and his theories had even allowed Lü Yang, who had not yet gained status, to discover the hidden ancestor of the Yun family.

Without a doubt, he was a true talent.

”Just in time, I lack a few capable people in my hands, and since I plan to reopen the Ancient Witch Ghost Path, it would be unreasonable not to have a few highly talented disciples.”

With that thought, Lü Yang immediately began setting the parameters for the Law Refinement Secret Realm.

Although he intended to use the one hundred and forty million people in the secret realm to breed Qi-Devouring Insects, Lü Yang would not crudely let the insects devour them recklessly.

”After all, I’m not some great villain.”

Moreover, letting the Qi-Devouring Insects feast openly would result in extremely low utilization of the talents, a one-time plunder with nothing left afterward.

One must understand that humans grow flesh on their own.

They didn’t even need to be raised; they would fatten themselves up naturally.

Therefore, Lü Yang’s breeding plan for the Qi-Devouring Insects was to let them coexist with the one hundred and forty million people in the secret realm, carefully cultivating and feeding them slowly.

”First, I need a cultivation system based on the Qi-Devouring Insects.”

”At the beginning of cultivation, everyone carries an insect seed, nurturing it within their body. Let’s call this stage the 【Embryonic Breath Stage】, since the Qi-Devouring Insect hasn’t yet been born.”

”Next, cultivators would slowly refine their blood and qi through martial techniques to feed the insect embryo. When the embryo awakens and transforms into a larva, it would grant the cultivator tremendous strength and an indestructible body, while also consuming the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to nourish the flesh. Let’s call this stage the 【Juvenile Stage】.”

Soon, Lü Yang had organized a complete system.

From the Juvenile Stage to the Growth Stage, all the way to the Complete Form, and even the Ultimate Form, the Qi-Devouring Insect would eventually hatch from its shell and grow to its peak!

By then, each one would be no weaker than those found on the Battlefield of Dao Seizing.

And their numbers would far exceed that!

After all, these were bred from one hundred and forty million people. With a scale in the hundreds of millions, they might actually pose a real threat to Foundation Establishment True Persons.

More importantly, when all one hundred and forty million people carried insect seeds from birth and passed them on to their descendants, the entire secret realm would be under Lü Yang’s complete surveillance.

As soon as the Yun family’s ancestor reincarnated here, Lü Yang would detect it instantly!

Thinking of this, Lü Yang immediately opened the jade box.

”Hiss hiss...”

Inside the jade box, the Qi-Devouring Insect King gradually regained consciousness, but it no longer displayed its former ferocity. Instead, it showed a trace of heartfelt timidity.

Seeing this, Lü Yang couldn’t help but feel a bit emotional.

This was once the child of destiny of an entire world, blessed by fate.

Without the intervention of a True Lord, it was almost guaranteed to reach Foundation Establishment under the world’s protection!

There was even precedent for this.

During casual chats with True Person Chong Guang and True Person Yinshan, Lü Yang had heard Chong Guang mention an incident from six hundred years ago during a Dao Seizing War.

At that time, the Sword Pavilion, the Primordial Saint Sect, the Dao Court, and the Pure Land had all joined forces to capture a world, and that world’s level far exceeded that of ordinary worlds.

As a result, the participants weren’t Qi Refining cultivators but Foundation Establishment True Persons themselves, each displaying their divine powers in a great battle.

Yet, as the saying goes, when the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman profits.

The child of destiny of that world somehow managed to cut off its karmic ties and escape during the chaos.

Chong Guang had expressed his feelings several times when recounting this:

”Undoubtedly, one of the four True Lords leading the battlefield must have secretly assisted, otherwise, how could a child of destiny have escaped?”

”Yet, none of the True Lords admitted to it, and the matter was left unresolved.”

”As for that child of destiny, they fled overseas.”

”Rumor has it that even to this day, they are still roaming freely overseas, and disciples of the Pure Land, Dao Court, Sword Pavilion, and even our Primordial Saint Sect have suffered at their hands.”

Lü Yang remembered this clearly.

Therefore, he placed great hope in the Qi-Devouring Insect and immediately used the Great Clone Universal Spirit Technique, preparing to refine it into a guardian spirit like Su Nu.

”Hiss hiss...”

As Lü Yang’s magic power seeped in, the Qi-Devouring Insect King had no strength to resist and was soon completely refined by Lü Yang, affectionately rubbing against his hand.

”Go.”

Lü Yang placed the insect king in his palm and channeled his magic power continuously.

The insect king actively cooperated, digesting the magic power and rapidly breeding Qi-Devouring Insect seeds.

After several years, when the numbers were sufficient, Lü Yang officially activated the Law Refinement Secret Realm and released all the insect seeds.

The next step was to wait.

Lü Yang had always been extremely patient, and this was a perfect opportunity to attempt condensing his innate divine ability.

What if he succeeded without relying on any Heaven’s Secret Treasures?

Time flew by like a fleeting horse.

In the blink of an eye, thirty years had passed.

He had failed.

”This isn’t bringing out my potential at all!”

Lü Yang awoke in frustration, when suddenly he felt a slight stir in his heart.

A newborn infant in the secret realm had just sent a signal from the insect seed within its body.
