Shrouding the Heavens: The Ultimate Daoist Venerable

Chapter 440 Limitless Dao Body
Upon returning to Jade Flower Divine Island, Lingbao Tianzun, filled with a sense of urgency, once again began his exploration of the Dao of the Field.

Of course, he also devoted some energy to further researching the unification of the Nine Secrets. Only 50,000 years have passed in his current life, less than half of that, so he could still try to pursue both paths simultaneously.

Of course, his main focus was still on fields that he studied for a longer period of time.

Although Emperor Xuanwu sensed that his master had been gone for some time, he did not continue to pay attention. After all, he had already consumed the elixir of immortality and lived a second life. If he could not complete his transformation in this life with the help of the Jade Flower Immortal Scripture and the Jade Flower Divine Blood, he would need to set aside some time to collect the materials for the Nine-Turn Immortal Pill and successfully refine it.

Although Emperor Xuanwu was not particularly arrogant, he was too embarrassed to ask his master to help him refine pills.

However, as a disciple of Lingbao Tianzun, who had refined more than one Nine-Turn Immortal Pill, Xuanwu Emperor naturally obtained the formula for the Nine-Turn Immortal Pill as well.

The human universe today, thanks to the intervention of the two Earth Immortals and Liang Yu, has not declined much compared to the mythological era. On the contrary, it shows signs of slow recovery. Therefore, it is not too difficult for Emperor Xuanwu to find the materials to refine the Nine-Turn Immortal Pill.

Therefore, Emperor Xuanwu paid special attention to this point.

In the Kunlun Sacred Realm, the Primordial Celestial Venerable originally intended to separate the Dao Fruit of the Nine Secrets into himself, but after discussing the Dao with Liang Yu, he realized that the power of the Nine Secrets in one was not limited to what he had currently mastered. Therefore, he conducted a more in-depth investigation into this Dao Fruit.

After all, in this life, he and Lingbao Tianzun were about the same age, both around 50,000 years old.

The seventh incarnation of the Moral Celestial Venerable lived for approximately 110,000 years. Judging from past circumstances, the lifespan of the Primordial Celestial Venerable was probably no less than his. Therefore, he still had enough time to perfect this Dao Fruit first, and then study the method of integrating the four Dao Fruits.

Of course, this is also because he had already studied the method of integrating Dao and Fruit, and after the demonstration by the Celestial Venerable of Morality, he improved it a lot. Therefore, he already had a basic framework and only needed to improve it.

However, this meant that Yuanshi Tianzun had no choice but to put aside the exploration of the sixth secret realm for the time being and continue it in the next life.

Over these hundreds of thousands of years, his Primordial Banner, the Cauldron of All Things, and the three Great Dao Fruits nurtured in the Kunlun Sacred Realm have continuously evolved, becoming basically on par with the Nine Secrets Combined Dao Fruit that his own body has deduced.

After all, these clones are indeed less efficient at cultivation than his main body, but with enough time to accumulate and his main body to make constant adjustments, each of their Dao fruits is close to immortality.

When these four Dao Fruits merge into one, his strength will likely increase many times over. Perhaps the divide between immortals and mortals will be broken during this fusion.

Upon returning to Wuji Immortal Mountain, Liang Yu gained new insights from the unity of the Nine Secrets of Yuanshi Tianzun, further evolving and mastering this power more deeply.

According to his calculations, if he did not merge with the human universe in this seventh incarnation, he could live for about 120,000 years. Now, he has already lived for 110,000 years and is not far from the end of his life.

Although he will not age or die now, once he reaches 120,000 years old, he will have to draw essence from the human universe to maintain his condition.

This would harm the human universe, and it would also further bind him to the human universe, so he didn't want to go that way.

Thus, Liang Yu began to devote himself entirely to the study of the path of physical evolution, striving to combine the power of the Nine Secrets into one with the power of the unity of all laws, thereby giving birth to a celestial body that transcends the realm of humanity. Time flies, and these ten thousand years are an incredibly long time for mortals, during which countless joys and sorrows, rises and falls, and destructions can occur, but for Liang Yu, who is almost on the verge of becoming an immortal, it is but a moment.

At this point, Liang Yu, who was 120,000 years old, finally ended his seclusion. Although he still appeared young, it was due to the special state he was in, not because he had truly achieved immortality.

Although he had actually perfected his method of reversing life thousands of years ago, he patiently continued to deduce it until the theoretical lifespan of his current life was truly about to end.

Although Yuanshi Tianzun and Lingbao Tianzun had discussed the Dao with him ten thousand years ago, they still paid special attention to this place during Liang Yu's transformation.

After all, this transformation of Liang Yu is the culmination of his physical evolution, where he combines the supreme chaotic laws of the human universe with the power of the Nine Secrets to create a truly unique immortal body.

This lifetime is most likely the crucial turning point for Liang Yu's transformation from mortal to immortal, so Lingbao Tianzun and Yuanshi Tianzun naturally have to pay attention.

In particular, Yuanshi Tianzun's own method of transformation also incorporated some of the path of physical evolution, so this goal is of great significance for his future fusion of Dao fruit and living out his eighth life.

Liang Yu naturally guessed that they would most likely be curious about his rebirth in this life, so he directly mobilized the origin of the universe to condense a chaotic cave in Wuji Immortal Mountain, Yuhua Divine Island and Kunlun Sacred Realm, so that they could see the whole process of his transformation without leaving seclusion.

Of course, this was also a result of Lingbao Tianzun and Yuanshi Tianzun knowing Liang Yu's intentions and not interfering. Without their consent, it would have been very difficult for Liang Yu to directly intrude into their Daoist temple.

Lingbao Tianzun was on par with him in terms of the realm of power, and Yuanshi Tianzun even used the World Cauldron Technique to turn the Kunlun Sacred Realm into an impenetrable wall. Even if Liang Yu mobilized the power of the human universe, it would be difficult for him to break through their defenses, let alone directly construct a void passage.

After ensuring that Lingbao Tianzun and Yuanshi Tianzun could sense his transformation, Liang Yu began his metamorphosis.

Countless chaotic laws within his body rapidly evolved, and the power of the Nine Secrets combined with it, seemingly distinct yet harmoniously unified, gradually merged. The chaotic energy slowly transformed into a special immortal energy that did not exist in the world. This power penetrated deep into Liang Yu's origin, encompassing every inch of his body, and thoroughly evolved and transformed it.

In this process, the supreme law derived from the unity of all laws by Liang Yu also continuously sublimated, evolving along with his body.

In the end, Liang Yu's body instantly shattered, turning into countless beams of immortal light, as if he were about to transcend the Dao. But then, these beams of immortal light quickly gathered and reformed into a new body.

This body is perfect, powerful, and transcends everything, as if it were a truly immortal being. At the same time, it is also ethereal and mysterious, as if it were the source of the Great Dao.

This constitution surpasses all constitutions in the human universe, including the Chaos Constitution. Even if all the essence of the human universe were used, it would be difficult to replicate it in the human world. This is not a change in quantity, but a change in quality.

This physique might be called the Wuji Dao Body.
