I’m Only at Qi Refining Layer 3, Yet My Disciples Are All Saints.

After traversing to a cultivation world, Lin Yang becomes the last Peak Lord of Sunpeak at the Great Wilderness Immortal Sect. His predecessor perished in the great war between immortals and demons, leaving behind nothing but an empty peak, abundant cultivation resources, and an inescapable death trap. Lin Yang’s cultivation is permanently stuck at Qi Refining Layer 3, making him the weakest cultivator in the entire sect, even inferior to newly enrolled outer disciples. According to sect rules, any peak that fails to recruit disciples for three consecutive years will be dissolved, and its peak lord will be dismissed and expelled from the sect. To make matters worse, a cruel system binds him with a deadly deadline: recruit a disciple with Great Emperor-level aptitude within twelve hours, or face immediate obliteration. Cornered by desperation, Lin Yang has no choice but to take a chance. The Immortal Ascension Assembly begins. Peak Lords from all peaks scramble over outstanding geniuses. Lin Hongye, a peerless talent whose extraordinary gifts shook the entire sect, becomes the center of everyone’s attention and competition. No one holds any hope for the desolate Sunpeak. The Sword Peak Lord even mocks him publicly, declaring that Lin Yang could never win over such a heavenly genius. Yet to everyone’s utter shock, Lin Hongye, the reborn Yaochi Empress who possesses the foundation of a Great Emperor, chooses the seemingly worthless Sunpeak without hesitation. As Lin Yang’s meager Qi Refining Layer 3 cultivation cannot see through her true identity and hidden strength, his deserted peak serves as the perfect safe haven for her to lie low and grow steadily after her rebirth. Successfully recruiting a disciple with Great Emperor aptitude activates Lin Yang’s Ten-Thousand-Fold Return System, granting him an incredible comeback against all odds. From then on, he embraces a laid-back life, abandoning arduous cultivation and choosing to live at ease. His first disciple is the Yaochi Sacred Lord, blessed with the unparalleled Phoenix Immortal Physique. His second disciple masters the supreme sword dao, ranking among the top sword immortals of the upper realm. His third disciple stands as a paramount demonic powerhouse, choosing to dwell in seclusion for ten thousand years. The supreme powerhouses, saints, and Great Emperors feared across the entire world are all his disciples. Faced with reverence from all heavens and myriad realms, Lin Yang feigns innocence: “I’m truly only at Qi Refining Layer 3. I’m just a tiny bit stronger than my saint-level disciples.”
