Struggling to Survive with Regression Power in the Primordial Saint Sect Chapter 47: The Hidden Dragon Does Not Emerge from the Abyss

Perhaps it was due to being a startled bird, or perhaps it was undue worry, but regardless, Lü Yang was now wary of all forces with a Foundation Establishnt background.

Especially those forces that had taken notice of him.

‘Unlike before, in this lifeti, I have the protection of divine talismans. nding Heaven Peak cannot calculate against , and the Divine Martial Sect, being part of the righteous path, shouldn't harm their own. That being said, the Foundation Establishnt True Person who remains hidden and is plotting over Skeleton Mountain might truly be the one behind the Three Rivers Society!’

The more Lü Yang thought about it, the more suspicious he found the Three Rivers Society, yet he maintained a calm facade:

“So that's how it is. Could it be that Second Senior Brother wishes to see ?”

“Indeed.” Fairy Feixia nodded: “Second Senior Brother has co to Skeleton Mountain and is in need of capable assistance, so he hopes you can lend a hand.”

Assistance? More like cannon fodder!

Lü Yang decisively shook his head: “Although I have so knowledge of formations, without them, my strength diminishes significantly. How could I be worthy of Second Senior Brother's favor?”

“Please have Second Senior Brother seek soone more capable.”

Lü Yang spoke with confidence.

Although he had joined the Three Rivers Society and signed a legal contract, he was not their slave. He still had so autonomy; who could force him?

Fairy Feixia evidently thought the sa, so she was rely delivering a ssage.

Now that the ssage was conveyed, her expression gradually turned ambiguous, her fair and delicate face blushing, her glances full of charm.

“Junior Brother, I have recently encountered so difficulties with formations. I hope you can guide .”

“That would be wonderful.”

Lü Yang imdiately perked up.

Over the next three months, Lü Yang's pace of life slowed down.

Each day, he would either discuss the Dao with Fairy Feixia or study the Hundred Bones True Formation outside.

Sotis, when the mood struck, he would do both simultaneously.

However, compared to his peaceful days, Skeleton Mountain outside the market was in complete chaos.

Not only were the Divine Martial Sect and the Primordial Saint Sect involved, but also their subordinate sects, and even so powerful rogue cultivators were drawn in.

When the three sides t, battles naturally ensued.

During this period, several relics of the Ancient Witch Ghost Path were unearthed, further confirming the existence of the Witch Ghost Secret Realm.

It was at this ti that Fairy Feixia brought him news that Zhao Xuhe, under his na, had seized many opportunities outside the market.

“Who would have thought my na would be so useful?”

Lü Yang was sowhat surprised upon hearing this.

Zhao Xuhe had competed for opportunities several tis and found himself in peril, but each ti, he escaped danger by invoking Lü Yang's na.

Clearly, Ouyang Haoze's death had made many wary of him.

Of course, this was also because Zhao Xuhe was clever and knew when to advance or retreat. So far, he hadn't provoked any truly formidable figures, allowing him to bluff successfully.

“Junior Brother, are you truly going to ignore this?”

Fairy Feixia's fair face turned stern, her words cold: “This person is using your na, bringing you karmic entanglents. I say we should kill him first!”

“Leave him be.”

Lü Yang shook his head.

Zhao Xuhe now never returned to the market, focusing solely on searching Skeleton Mountain for the Ancient Witch Ghost Path and the Witch Ghost Secret Realm.

If Lü Yang wanted to kill him, he would have to leave the market.

But how could that be possible?

“Let him be. He once mortgaged so contribution points with , and I agreed to let him use my na. There's nothing more to say.”

After sending off Fairy Feixia, Lü Yang's expression gradually beca serious.

“Heh!”

“Interesting. Over the past few months, everything I've heard and seen seems to be urging to leave the market?”

A term involuntarily surfaced in Lü Yang's mind: calamity!

He was rely a small Qi Refining cultivator, yet he was being targeted by a Foundation Establishnt True Person, with karma deduced and various sches. If this wasn't a calamity, what was?

“Damn karma!”

“No matter what, with calamity looming, I must not act rashly. Only by closing my cave door and quietly reciting the Yellow Court Scriptures can I hope to avoid disaster.”

First, there was the Three Rivers Society, applying external pressure.

Now, Zhao Xuhe was causing internal entanglents.

“No matter how you try to bait , I won't bite. The hidden dragon does not erge from the abyss. What can you do to ?”

Thinking this, Lü Yang felt his mind clear. His previously restless thoughts settled, and he felt relaxed, as if he had shed another layer of karma.

Ti flowed, and another month passed.

Skeleton Mountain Market, over a thousand miles to the east.

A streak of escape light was seen fleeing desperately, seemingly burning blood essence, with seven or eight escape lights in pursuit.

“Zhao Xuhe! Where do you think you're going!”

The pursuers were all clad in armor, their blood energy soaring, clearly disciples of the Divine Martial Sect, mostly in the late stages of Qi Refining, none at the peak.

Otherwise, with Zhao Xuhe's cultivation, he wouldn't have been able to escape.

Even so, fleeing to this point had nearly exhausted him. The only reason he hadn't collapsed was due to hope.

“I can still be saved!”

“I've already sent a flying ssage to Lü Yang. As long as... as long as I can escape to that place, to the area around the market, Lü Yang will surely save !”

Zhao Xuhe fled desperately, convincing himself.

“There is still my restriction on the Stealing Heaven's Secret. As long as he still wants to break through to Foundation Establishnt and not wait until he's eighty and frail, he must co to save !”

“He will co to save !”

“He definitely will!”

At that mont, Zhao Xuhe was overjoyed to see a brilliant escape light rising from the market's direction, seemingly aware of his peril.

“He's coming! I knew he wouldn't abandon !”

Seeing this, Zhao Xuhe was invigorated, and his pursuers slowed down, seemingly waiting for sothing.

However, as ti passed, they realized sothing was wrong.

The brilliant escape light was still approaching, but it never arrived.

Eventually, Zhao Xuhe could run no more, and the Divine Martial Sect pursuers reluctantly surrounded him, and a fierce battle ensued.

This battle lasted for half a day.

In the end, the pursuers didn't dare to strike hard, fearing they might kill Zhao Xuhe with a single blow, occasionally glancing towards the escape light.

Upon closer inspection... was that escape light moving farther away?

Finally, Zhao Xuhe completely broke down.

“No! Why!?”

He suddenly spat out a mouthful of heart blood, then knelt on the ground, utterly drained, his life force rapidly fading.

Before death, only one thought remained in his heart.

Could it be that Lü Yang didn't want the Stealing Heaven's Secret technique?

“Why didn't you save !?”

Little did he know, this was also the thought of the person behind the orchestrated pursuit.

In the shadows, Elder Ouyang Feng of the Divine Martial Sect was equally puzzled, looking towards the distant Skeleton Mountain Market, his eyes filled with unwillingness and helplessness.

“Why didn't he save him?”

“Only a fool would save him!”

Retracting his escape light, Lü Yang looked at yet another of Zhao Xuhe's desperate flying ssages and casually tossed it aside: “Did he really think he could use a secret technique to threaten ?”

“It's just eighty years. I can wait!”

“Once your restriction naturally dissipates, the secret technique will still be mine! If not this lifeti, then the next...”

Thinking this, Lü Yang couldn't help but lant Zhao Xuhe's misfortune. If he had managed to escape into the market, Lü Yang wouldn't have minded helping him.

But outside the market? That was just unfortunate.

“Senior Brother Zhao, rest in peace. You sacrificed for the Saint Sect. In the future, I will petition the nding Heaven Peak Master to grant you a grand burial.”

“As for your debt, let's forget it this lifeti. I'll collect it in the next!”
