Struggling to Survive with Regression Power in the Primordial Saint Sect

Chapter 171: The Amitābha's Tuo Buddha

One day passed.

Lü Yang pushed away the unconscious Fairy Piaomiao and let out a faint sigh.

To be honest, he had actually considered alternatives to dual cultivation.

For example, refining Fairy Piaomiao into a Banner Spirit using the Ten Thousand Spirits Banner.

However, this attempt had failed because Fairy Piaomiao's True Spirit was not inside her body.

The Ten Thousand Spirits Banner could not capture it, let alone refine her into a Banner Spirit.

So he had no choice but to strip down and go into battle himself.

After three hundred rounds of fierce combat with Fairy Piaomiao, leaving her dazed and begging for mercy, Lü Yang finally obtained the information he wanted.

"【Imperial Palace Golden Seal Doushuai True Decree】."

This was the deepest secret hidden in Fairy Piaomiao's heart.

It was also the cornerstone of the Immortal Alliance and the entire Biyang Cultivation World.

The reason was simple:

The so-called spiritual roots were split from this treasure!

However, this mysterious treasure did not originate here but was brought in by an outsider.

The reason traced back to the founding of the Immortal Alliance thousands of years ago.

"My earlier guess was indeed correct."

At the beginning of the Immortal Alliance, local cultivators of the Biyang Cultivation World fought against an Outer Region Heavenly Demon, suffering countless casualties.

The current Immortal Alliance had rewritten history, making many believe the Outer Region Heavenly Demon was a massive race and that it was a great war.

But this was not the case.

The so-called Outer Region Heavenly Demon was actually just one person from beginning to end.

The clash between the local cultivators and the Outer Region Heavenly Demon was not a war, but a massacre.

That person had almost slaughtered the entire Biyang Cultivation World.

It was only when some cowardly cultivators chose to surrender that the Outer Region Heavenly Demon spared them.

Then, under his command, they established the Immortal Alliance.

Afterward, the Outer Region Heavenly Demon completely reorganized the order of the Biyang Cultivation World.

He left behind the 【Imperial Palace Golden Seal Doushuai True Decree】 before leaving gracefully.

It was only after that that spiritual roots appeared in the Biyang Cultivation World, transforming it into the current state where all beings were materials.

Without a doubt, this was the work of a True Person of the Primordial Saint Sect.

When Lü Yang learned who had left behind this treasure, he sincerely sighed.

"Almost forgot about you."

Daoist Hong Yun!

That's right.

According to Fairy Piaomiao's memories, the cultivator who had slaughtered the Biyang Cultivation World, reorganized its order, and left behind the treasure was Daoist Hong Yun!

In an instant, old and new grudges surged in Lü Yang's heart.

Lü Yang had not forgotten that in his fourth lifetime, it was this very person who had suddenly appeared and snatched away the fruits of his hard battle!

"This place was actually set up by him?"

Lü Yang pondered for a moment, then shook his head.

"No, the Biyang Cultivation World and its cultivation system already existed before he came."

"Rather than saying he arranged it, it's more accurate to say he was also a latecomer who seized the nest of another."

"This place must have originally been the work of an Innate True Person."

"Later, it was taken over by Daoist Hong Yun."

"He probably did this secretly without the Primordial Saint Sect's knowledge, so even True Person Chong Guang likely doesn't know about it."

After all, Daoist Hong Yun and True Person Chong Guang were mortal enemies.

"Under his design, the entire Biyang Cultivation World became a massive talent cultivation base."

"And all the talents cultivated would eventually be used for one thing."

【Imperial Palace Golden Seal Doushuai True Decree】!

Daoist Hong Yun left behind this mysterious treasure.

This treasure split off spiritual roots, while also restricting cultivation and grasping the lifeline of everyone in the Biyang Cultivation World.

Even the great cultivators of the Integration Realm were no exception.

"Once one broke through to the Integration Realm, their True Spirit would immediately be absorbed by this treasure."

"A mark would be imprinted, turning them into mere tools for refining this treasure."

"The only benefit was having a long lifespan and being able to temporarily borrow the treasure’s power, falsely presenting themselves as Foundation Establishment cultivators."

"But this was only to make the talents more useful."

In essence, they were still consumables.

Even the name "Biyang Cultivation World" was given by Daoist Hong Yun.

Because the 【Imperial Palace Golden Seal Doushuai True Decree】 he left behind was a True Treasure.

Above Spirit Treasures, there were True Treasures!

"Using billions of mortals and millions of cultivators as materials to refine a single True Treasure."

"Biyang Cultivation, Biyang Cultivation…"

"It's really about refining a True Treasure!"

What a grand scheme!

What ruthless methods!

"Judging by the timeline, Daoist Hong Yun had likely already reincarnated thousands of years ago."

"Arranging this place was probably his preparation for reclaiming his position."

At this thought, Lü Yang's expression suddenly changed.

"This is bad!"

If the True Spirits of the Integration Realm cultivators were all tied to the 【Imperial Palace Golden Seal Doushuai True Decree】...

Could the Immortal Alliance also use this to locate him?

In the Chaotic Current Sea, at the headquarters of the Immortal Alliance.

"We've found the location!"

In the grand hall, a talisman hovered quietly in mid-air.

Eleven Integration Realm cultivators simultaneously activated their True Qi, continuously pouring it into the talisman.

Its material was neither gold nor jade.

It appeared light but was actually quite heavy.

The tadpole-like script outlined the forms of cloud dragons and strange birds.

As it was activated, it immediately revealed a display of colorful petals and golden radiance.

Wind, clouds, water, and fire intermingled, creating numerous phenomena that seemed both near and infinitely far.

"Shall we pursue?"

One Integration Realm cultivator asked hesitantly.

"This person captured Piaomiao with ease. We might be in danger if we act rashly. Why not seek some external help?"

"Coincidentally, my friend has not yet left."

The speaker was a cultivator named Mu Huan, who was known for traveling overseas and making friends.

Recently, he had just met an extraordinary person.

"I recently invited him to the Immortal Alliance."

"According to him, he is a disciple of the Pure Land of Deep Joy in Jiangxi, inland."

"This Pure Land is remarkable. I have verified it carefully, and it is a force on the same level as the Primordial Saint Sect!"

"With his help, our chances will increase significantly."

"Is this person not afraid of the Primordial Saint Sect?"

"Of course not!" Mu Huan chuckled.

"According to him, he was recently fighting against the disciples of the Primordial Saint Sect as if it were nothing."

"So powerful?"

The other Integration Realm cultivators were pleasantly surprised upon hearing this.

After all, an extra ally meant higher chances of success.

Mu Huan then took out a communication talisman and began to cast a spell to contact the person.

However, he held back one detail.

He did not mention that Lü Yang was very likely a True Person of the Primordial Saint Sect.

After all, the reputation of the Primordial Saint Sect was overwhelming.

If the ally hesitated because of it, things would get complicated.

Not long after, a streak of light descended from the sky.

"Amitābha."

As the light dissipated, it revealed a young monk dressed in a dazzling kasaya, holding a nine-ringed staff.

He appeared dignified and compassionate.

Mu Huan immediately stepped forward to greet him.

"Master, I must trouble you once again."

The young monk shook his head with a smile.

"This humble monk came overseas precisely to deliver all beings from suffering."

"As the saying goes, saving a single life is better than building a seven-story pagoda."

"Now that Benefactor Piaomiao is in trouble, how could this humble monk stand by idly?"

Hearing this, everyone showed expressions of respect.

Mu Huan immediately cupped his hands and said:

"Then I shall activate the 【Imperial Palace Golden Seal Doushuai True Decree】."

"With this treasure guiding us, even ten thousand miles will be but a blink away."

Hearing this, the young monk lowered his eyelids to conceal the greed in his eyes.

"Rest assured, leave it to this humble monk."

The young monk waved his hand confidently, giving off an air of complete assurance.

This immediately settled the hearts of Mu Huan and the other Integration Realm cultivators.

In the next moment, the 【Imperial Palace Golden Seal Doushuai True Decree】 in the hall radiated brilliantly.

The young monk felt the scenery before him shift rapidly.

When he regained his senses, he found himself and the Integration cultivators standing above the sea.

Sweeping his divine sense, he immediately located a cave dwelling beneath the sea.

‘Hahaha! Time for me to shine!’

The young monk had spent several decades overseas.

He had left the inland because he deemed it too dangerous.

He came overseas seeking easier prey, wanting to fish in a smaller pond.

Over the years, he had indeed lived comfortably.

Especially after his master died and the Bodhisattva personally appointed him as the Senior Brother.

This made him even more satisfied and convinced that the overseas life was far better than the inland.

He no longer had to worry about suddenly encountering that Lü fellow, the great demon of the Primordial Saint Sect.

At this thought, the young monk's confidence surged.

"Hey! Wicked creature! Release Benefactor Piaomiao at once!"

A Buddhist chant echoed like thunder.

The young monk, eager to show off, transformed his Buddhist light into a giant hand that split the sea, revealing the cave dwelling within.

"Behold my great… great… great…"

The next second, the young monk saw the familiar face of the black-robed Daoist standing at the cave entrance.

His body trembled instantly, as if his soul had flown out.

"This really is…"

Walking out of the cave, Lü Yang was equally surprised to see the young monk.

He immediately smiled.

"So it's Fellow Daoist Guang Ming? It seems we are truly fated to meet again."

Who’s fated with you!

Guang Ming felt like crying but forced a smile through gritted teeth.

In his heart, he cursed loudly:

Amitābha’s Tuo Buddha, what the hell!

How did I run into this great demon again!
