Struggling to Survive with Regression Power in the Primordial Saint Sect Chapter 72: Impacting Foundation Establishment!

Reddit

The next day, Lü Yang departed from the Secret Realm of Law Refinent.

As for the events that transpired within the secret realm, naturally, he kept his lips sealed, and even Luo Wuya remained silent, as if Lü Yang had never entered the secret realm.

Regarding Lü Yang, the soul of the Yun Clan Ancestor had already been cleansed by True Person Yinshan; he was content to quietly amass wealth and naturally wouldn't spread the news. To reassure True Person Yinshan, after leaving the secret realm, he simply didn't leave and directly established a cave dwelling within Yinshan.

Cultivating in the mountains, years passed unnoticed, and in the blink of an eye, another ten years had gone by.

On this day, Lü Yang awoke from seclusion, opened his eyes, and looked at the Bright Dao Jade Slip that hadn't left his hand for ten years, only to find several cracks had appeared on it.

"It seems this mysterious treasure also has its limits."

Over the past ten years, he had almost constantly activated this mysterious treasure.

Thanks to it, his attainnts in various fields had made significant progress.

Formations, talismans, cultivation.

Most importantly, he had finally deduced a secret technique to cultivate the 『Taiyin Body-Shedding Corpse Liberation True thod』 without triggering the Book of a Hundred Lifetis.

Lü Yang nad it the 『Yin Spirit Ghost Immortal thod』.

Simply put, it was a thod of feigned death, with the soul guarding internally, unwavering in will, allowing the yin spirit to erge upon physical death, thereby enabling the soul to remain in the world.

By using this secret technique, Lü Yang could adjust his own soul to a state similar to that of a Foundation Establishnt True Person's soul, so that after the physical body died, he wouldn't enter reincarnation.

This way, he could et the conditions for cultivating the 『Taiyin Body-Shedding Corpse Liberation True thod』 and undergo 'death and then shedding', without triggering the Book of a Hundred Lifetis.

"In the next life, this shall be the goal."

After all, just the Saint's Theft alone had cost him several decades.

Compared to it, the 『Taiyin Body-Shedding Corpse Liberation True thod』 was only stronger, not weaker, and the ti consud would likely be even greater.

There was no hope of achieving it in this lifeti.

Thinking of this, Lü Yang took out another jade slip.

It recorded a secret technique called 'Stealing Heaven's Secrets', which Zhao Xuhe had traded to him back then, even placing a confidentiality restriction on it.

If he could cultivate it successfully, it could increase his chances of Foundation Establishnt by another ten percent!

Lü Yang lightly tapped it, and as he expected, after eighty years, the restriction on the jade slip had already dissipated, allowing him to easily see its contents.

"Senior Brother Zhao is an honest man, actually leaving no omissions and even writing annotations."

As Lü Yang firmly morized the Stealing Heaven's Secrets technique, he sighed, "Oh right, Senior Brother Zhao still owes money in this life. I mustn't forget in the next life."

Another month passed before Lü Yang left his cave dwelling.

However, this ti, he heard a piece of news that greatly surprised him: at the Three River Assembly, Second Senior Brother Luo Wuya attempted Foundation Establishnt, failed, and perished.

"How could this be?"

Inside True Person Yinshan's cave dwelling, Lü Yang sighed deeply, "I had a close friendship with Senior Brother Luo and thought that upon leaving seclusion, we could drink and converse joyfully."

True Person Yinshan also shook his head upon hearing this, "It's a pity about the second one. His cultivation thod was the true inheritance of the Saint Sect, the 『Heavenly Craft True Scripture』. Upon completion, the 'Heavenly Craft Treasure Qi' he refined was ranked third grade. Besides that, he had also mastered a great divine ability and possessed a Foundation Establishnt Pill, giving him a thirty percent chance of breaking through."

Foundation Establishnt was as difficult as ascending to the blue heavens.

In this life, Lü Yang was already a hundred years old, and Luo Wuya was no younger. A thirty percent chance of breaking through to Foundation Establishnt was already worth risking one's life.

Unfortunately, he lost the bet.

After lanting for a while, True Person Yinshan looked at Lü Yang, "I see that you've co out of seclusion this ti with determination, planning to attempt Foundation Establishnt?"

"Senior Brother sees clearly."

Lü Yang cupped his hands, took out the soul of the Yun Clan Ancestor, and returned it to True Person Yinshan, saying solemnly, "After eting with Senior Brother, I plan to enter seclusion."

"You are truly a talent and should be cultivating in the Saint Sect." True Person Yinshan stroked his beard and smiled, "Now that I think about it, I sowhat regret depleting your fortune back at Skeleton Mountain, causing you to waste thirty years. Otherwise, if you were thirty years younger, you'd have a better chance at Foundation Establishnt."

Lü Yang shook his head, "Senior Brother flatters ."

"I never speak empty words." True Person Yinshan shook his head, then waved his hand, and a jade token fell in front of Lü Yang, inscribed with two large characters:

Ascension!

"The Ascension Order I didn't give you back at Skeleton Mountain, you exchanged it for the Bright Dao Jade Slip. The second one couldn't use it, and the third died early on the righteous-demonic battlefield."

"Take it."

Lü Yang was stunned upon hearing this, then quickly waved his hands, "Senior Brother's great kindness, I cannot accept this."

"Enough nonsense." True Person Yinshan looked impatient, "Take it if I tell you to. If you can truly achieve Foundation Establishnt, it would be a good karma."

Upon hearing this, Lü Yang had no choice but to accept the Ascension Order, and a sense of anticipation suddenly arose in his heart: his original intention in attempting Foundation Establishnt this ti was rely to accumulate experience for the next life. But now, with his True Qi at third grade, possessing the Saint's Theft, and if he added this Ascension Order, could he really have a thirty percent chance?

Could there be so conspiracy?

Thinking of this, Lü Yang found it sowhat amusing. There was no helping it; there were too many talents in the Saint Sect, and unsolicited help made him uneasy.

'But even if there is a conspiracy, I'll accept it.'

'Anyway, in this life, even if I die, I plan to die on the path to Foundation Establishnt. If I don't succeed, I'll beco a martyr. Whether there's a conspiracy or not doesn't matter.'

'If there really is a conspiracy, I'll just be more cautious in the next life.'

Thinking of this, Lü Yang no longer dwelled on it, stood up, respectfully saluted True Person Yinshan, and then turned and left.

Little did he know that after his departure, another figure appeared beside True Person Yinshan.

The newcor was a middle-aged man with an imposing deanor, exuding a sharp aura between his brows, as if nothing in the world could daunt him.

True Person Yinshan spoke first, "How is it?"

"...Not feasible."

The man shook his head, "The best age for breaking through to Foundation Establishnt is around seventy or eighty. This person is already over a hundred years old; the chances of success are minimal."

"It's a pity that although he cultivated the 『Taiyin Body-Shedding Corpse Liberation True thod』, he didn't complete the final step of transformation to refine the status of 'Corpse Dissolution Immortal'. Otherwise, he could have increased his chances by another ten percent. Without the assistance of a Foundation Establishnt True Person, that place can't be breached by just the two of us."

"Let's hope he succeeds."

"If not, we'll have to risk inviting an outsider to help."

True Person Yinshan looked helpless, "Senior Brother Chongguang, you've already achieved complete Foundation Establishnt, and with the reincarnation of the 'Overturning Lamp Fire' master, this is an opportunity not to be missed."

"Indeed, at this point, we have no choice but to take a gamble."

True Person Chongguang said solemnly, "If we succeed, it's our fortune; if we fail, it's our fate. Moreover, with the millennium great tribulation approaching, if we don't beco True Lords, how can we be the ones to control the ga?"

"It's rely a matter of dying sooner or later!"

"At least dying in pursuit of a breakthrough is better than, when the great tribulation arrives, having our minds clouded by calamity, becoming pawns of others, and dying in ignorance."

"You and I have both attempted Foundation Establishnt and should understand this truth."

"Senior Brother speaks rightly."

True Person Yinshan nodded, seemingly recalling past events, then sighed, "Qi Refining cannot transcend, and Foundation Establishnt is also hard to attain freedom."

"That's just how the world is."

True Person Chongguang's tone was indifferent, "Otherwise, why would there be talk of True Persons and True Lords?"

"Qi Refining cultivators, no matter how brilliant, are rely 'materials', ready to be expended at any ti."

"Only by breaking through to Foundation Establishnt will one be regarded as a person, and only by achieving Golden Core can one be considered a lord above all, ruling over thousands."
