Shrouding the Heavens: The Ultimate Daoist Venerable

Chapter 455 Returning home in glory
After successfully attaining enlightenment, the White Tiger Emperor concealed his aura and headed to his homeland, the ancient star Gouchen.

The White Tiger Emperor's clan had been migrated to Kunlun Ancient Star by him, where he formed the White Tiger Tribe of the Kunlun Clan with his descendants. Therefore, there were no descendants or clansmen of his in Gouchen Ancient Star. However, since this place was his hometown, the White Tiger Emperor chose this place as his first stop after attaining enlightenment.

After all, he grew up here, started his career here, and got to where he is today.

Two array patterns faintly appeared before the White Tiger Emperor outside the ancient star Gouchen, revealing an aura of extreme power. It seemed that two supreme emperors were lurking here, and if he made a move, he would be met with a fierce counterattack.

These two great formations were naturally set up by Emperor Li and Emperor Xuanwu to protect the ancient star Gouchen from being destroyed by some unexpected situation.

Of course, although these two great formations are exquisite, their power is also limited. If the White Tiger Emperor goes all out, then the Gouchen Ancient Star will only suffer one or two more blows.

However, these two great formations are sufficient to suppress those at the Quasi-Emperor level and below.

Speaking of which, Emperor Li and Emperor Xuanwu came from the ancient star of the Primordial Era and the Jade Flower Divine Island, respectively. The ancient star of Gouchen could only be considered their second home, while Emperor Baihu was from the ancient star of Gouchen in the true sense.

In other words, the White Tiger Emperor was actually the first Dao Prover from the ancient star Gouchen.

The two Dao Proving Beings from other ancient stars and worlds left behind a great protective array here, and the White Tiger Emperor, the true emperor from this place, was no exception.

So, just like them, the White Tiger Emperor left his own imperial array on this ancient star to protect it.

After that, the White Tiger Emperor descended upon the ancient star Gouchen, revisiting his old haunts and reminiscing about the past.

But in reality, after 40,000 to 50,000 years, the ancient star Gouchen has undergone tremendous changes and is very different from what it used to be.

Of course, the strongholds of the top powers and some special terrains have not changed much.

However, the places where the White Tiger King had memories of have hardly retained their original appearance.

The White Tiger Emperor let out a long sigh, then cleared his mind of distractions, and his Dao heart became clear once more.

Then the White Tiger Emperor gathered the Gouchen demon clan and preached to them, enabling them to achieve better development.

In fact, with the support of the two emperors, Emperor Li and Emperor Xuanwu, the Gouchen Demon Clan has become the number one power on this ancient star and even in this star field.

With the further support of the White Tiger Emperor, it is foreseeable that the demon race in this area will soon usher in another wave of rapid development.

Although the White Tiger Queen has stepped down and is now focused on becoming the Lord of Kunlun, he was once the Demon Lord of the Gouchen Demon Clan, so he still has a deep emotional connection to his clan and will naturally take this matter very seriously.

Next is the issue of inheritance. The White Tiger Emperor originally wanted to leave behind an ancient scripture among the demon race and spread it, as a foundation-building technique that most demons could cultivate. However, great minds think alike, and the Black Tortoise Emperor had already done so long ago.

After a detailed study, the White Tiger Emperor discovered that the ancient scriptures left by the Black Tortoise Emperor were already exquisite enough, and he himself could not create an ancient scripture that could compare with them, so he gave up.

However, the White Tiger Emperor did not give up. He left behind cultivation techniques suitable for the demon race, mainly focusing on strengthening physique and improving bloodline, in order to enhance the demon race's foundation.

At this time, the inherited treasure of the Gouchen Demon Clan is a quasi-royal weapon, which is infinitely close to the supreme weapon of alternative enlightenment, the White Tiger Emperor. Although it cannot be evolved into an extreme royal weapon in a short time, it may be much easier if it is used with the power of Kunlun Immortal Mountain.

However, the White Tiger Emperor simply reforged it and inscribed it with supreme array patterns, raising its grade once again, making it sufficient as a weapon to suppress hidden strength. As for what would happen next, the White Tiger Emperor intended to use the power of Kunlun Immortal Mountain to help it complete this ultimate leap, transforming it into a supreme imperial weapon. However, this could not be accomplished overnight, so the White Tiger Emperor did not do so directly. Instead, he first consulted the current Demon Lord and several other powerful demon clans.

Upon hearing that the White Tiger Emperor intended to refine it and elevate it to the level of an ultimate imperial weapon, the leaders of these demon races were naturally overjoyed.

Compared to other forces that have produced Dao-proving beings, the Gouchen Demon Clan can only rely on the Myriad Demon Cave for self-preservation, making expansion difficult and their power unstable. However, if an Ultimate Dao Imperial Weapon were to be passed down through generations, that would be a different story.

These Gouchen demons all strongly agreed, even if it took thousands or tens of thousands of years without the ancestral artifact to suppress them, after all, that was an ultimate imperial weapon.

So the White Tiger King brought this important artifact to the Ten Thousand Demon Cave.

Although Baihu himself was extremely talented, this place was of great help to him. Even his contact with the Kunlun clan and his becoming the Lord of Kunlun was accomplished under his guidance.

Therefore, the White Tiger Emperor also valued this place highly, and he decided to leave his legacy here, just like the Power Emperor and the Black Tortoise Emperor.

As a replica of the White Tiger, his lineage has a very high threshold; not just any demon can master it. Therefore, staying in a place that selects the most outstanding talents is just right.

Upon arriving at the Cave of Ten Thousand Demons, the White Tiger Emperor keenly sensed some inexplicable changes that had occurred here, making it more mystical and independent than before.

Judging from the aura, this was clearly the work of the Xuanwu Emperor.

Before the White Tiger Emperor even entered the Ten Thousand Demon Cave, the great formation within trembled and quickly became active, drawing in a large amount of heaven and earth energy, causing the hidden deity at its core to revive.

As soon as the Power Emperor avatar awoke, he sensed the White Tiger's aura and appeared directly in front of the White Tiger Emperor.

The White Tiger King immediately cupped his hands and said, "Greetings, Senior Power King, and thank you for your guidance."

The avatar of the Power Emperor sensed the aura emanating from the White Tiger Emperor and couldn't help but laugh, "Judging from the aura of Fellow Daoist White Tiger, you must have already established a sufficiently deep connection with the Kunlun Clan, right? In that case, you will have many more options for your future path."

Although Li Huang had little connection with Kunlun Immortal Mountain, through his many battles with Ying Shenxiao, he had long since memorized the aura of Kunlun Immortal Mountain and the Kunlun Immortal Scripture.

Therefore, he immediately noticed the faint immortal aura emanating from the White Tiger Emperor.

The White Tiger Emperor said, "Senior Emperor Li has indeed shown me the right path; I can never repay this kindness."

The avatar of the Power Emperor said, "I was just mentoring the younger generation, there's no need to take it to heart."

The two exchanged a smile, and then the White Tiger Emperor left his complete legacy here, refining his essence and blood along with other divine materials into immortal liquid, which, together with the immortal liquid left by the Black Tortoise Emperor and the Power Emperor, served as the ultimate reward of the Ten Thousand Demon Cave.

Next came the formation. However, the Myriad Demon Cave had already been greatly improved by the Xuanwu Emperor, so the White Tiger Emperor found it difficult to begin and could only refine some details and make further optimizations.

Afterwards, the White Tiger Emperor left Gouchen Ancient Star.
