So, the first thing that you should understand is that, every time you generate a new address, you'll not get the "corresponding key" for that address each time. That's not how address generation works. There is only one key for the wallet and addresses are derived from that key. A single key can be used to derive countless addresses.

So for recovery purposes, you only need to know that one wallet key, which you should keep a backup of.

Regarding the LND key for BTCPayserver which you need to backup, you can find it on your BTCPayserver panel:
Server Settings > Services > LND Seed Backup
