Shrouding the Heavens: The Ultimate Daoist Venerable

Chapter 501 Communication
In this day and age, many of the old stories from the mythological era have faded into the past, hidden in the corners of history, and are almost unknown to anyone.

Therefore, the glorious history of the former Kunlun clan, who once resided in the Kunlun Immortal Mountain, one of the most extraordinary places in the universe, wielding immortal artifacts and bells, and who produced nine supreme beings, is now largely unknown.

Even considering only the current Kunlun clan, its foundation is already terrifying.

After all, even counting from this era, the Kunlun clan has already produced two emperors: the Kunlun Immortal Emperor and the White Tiger Emperor.

Of course, strictly speaking, the White Tiger Emperor was not a member of the Kunlun clan. However, he took control of Kunlun Immortal Mountain and moved his entire clan to join the Kunlun clan, so it's not unreasonable to say that he was also an emperor of the Kunlun clan.

Even the Emperor of Light secretly became more vigilant in order to uncover the profound secrets of the Kunlun clan.

The reason why the Bright Emperor targeted the Kunlun Clan instead of the easier-to-deal-with Wanlong Clan was that no one from the Wanlong Clan had seen the True Dragon Immortal Elixir since the end of the Mythical Era. No one knew whether the elixir was hidden deep within the Wanlong Nest or had already broken through the void and escaped.

Secondly, the current patriarch of the Wanlong Clan was one of the earliest followers of the Bright Emperor, and a veteran who had supported him from the very beginning. Out of consideration for their past relationship, he didn't want to expose his past.

After all, if the True Dragon Elixir of Immortality is still inside the Myriad Dragon Nest, given the current strength of the Myriad Dragon Clan, they would likely have difficulty protecting it. Once the Emperor of Light leaves, the unattended Myriad Dragon Clan will suffer greatly.

Although legend has it that the ancestors of the Wanlong Clan had a past relationship with the Wuji Heavenly Venerable, that is already a myth and legend, so it is naturally unlikely that this is true.

Emperor Guangming vaguely guessed that it was very likely that one of the ancestors of the Ten Thousand Dragons deliberately sealed the True Dragon Immortal Elixir deep inside the Ten Thousand Dragons Nest, as a strategic retreat, temporarily abandoning the True Dragon Immortal Elixir, and creating an opportunity for his descendants to obtain it again.

Therefore, he didn't want to ruin someone else's good thing.

The Emperor of Light, strolling through the starry sky, did not reveal his aura. Instead, he quietly arrived at the ancient star Kunlun and secretly sensed its true nature.

Emperor Guangming originally only wanted to get a general understanding of the situation before deciding how to visit Kunlun Immortal Mountain, but he didn't expect that this perception would lead to trouble.

The two supreme imperial weapons and the super array set up with the help of the wondrous Kunlun Immortal Mountain were all within the Bright Emperor's expectations. What truly surprised him was that the Kunlun Immortal Mountain seemed to be alive.

Within the Kunlun Immortal Mountain, an extremely vast aura of supreme power faintly emanates, as if the Kunlun Immortal Mountain were the very body of some emperor, containing countless imperial laws that are endlessly regenerating.

Furthermore, the Emperor of Light sensed a vast, dormant divine consciousness perfectly integrated with Kunlun Immortal Mountain. Upon sensing his divine consciousness, this consciousness began to awaken and revive.

This further confirms his judgment that Kunlun Immortal Mountain is indeed alive.

In his shock, the Emperor of Light was caught off guard and didn't have time to conceal his aura further, as the resurrected Kunlun Immortal Mountain locked onto his presence.

The Emperor of Light shook his head, clearing his mind of these distractions, and focused on sensing the other party's aura. Soon, he vaguely guessed the truth.

At this moment, the revived Kunlun Immortal Mountain sent out a divine thought: "Fellow Daoist Guangming, your presence is truly an honor, but I am temporarily unable to greet you from afar. My apologies."

The Emperor of Light said, "Are you the White Tiger Emperor?"

This revived Kunlun Immortal Mountain is none other than the White Tiger Emperor, who successfully transformed into an Earth Immortal. After more than 20,000 years, he finally cultivated to the fourth stage of Earth Immortal and became Kunlun Immortal Mountain itself.

Stimulated by the aura of the Emperor of Light, he could no longer remain in slumber.

The White Tiger Emperor said, "It is I. May I ask what brings you here, Fellow Daoist Guangming?" The Guangming Emperor was very curious about the White Tiger Emperor's current state. He said, "Meeting you, Fellow Daoist White Tiger, is the greatest gain of my trip. It would be even better if we could discuss the Dao and exchange ideas on the methods of longevity and immortality."

The White Tiger King condensed an avatar of immortal energy, cupped his hands and said, "Just what I wanted, Fellow Daoist Guangming, please."

Although this was the White Tiger Emperor's home turf, and the opponent's aura was much larger and more terrifying than his own, the Bright Emperor did not hesitate at all and directly entered the Kunlun Immortal Mountain.

Of course, the two emperors did not want others to disturb their conversation, so the Bright Emperor was taken directly to the depths of Kunlun Immortal Mountain, to a stone cave where the White Tiger Emperor had often secluded himself.

This place is blocked by the array patterns left by the White Tiger Emperor, so even other members of the Kunlun clan cannot enter at will.

The White Tiger Emperor has already merged into the Kunlun Immortal Mountain, so he can only sit opposite the Bright Emperor in his avatar form, drinking and chatting happily.

After a few pleasantries, the Bright Emperor cut straight to the point: "I wonder if it would be convenient for Fellow Daoist White Tiger to reveal your current state?"

The White Tiger Emperor laughed and said, "My current state is simply due to my cultivation of the Earth Immortal's methods."

Immediately afterwards, the White Tiger Emperor told the Bright Emperor about the advantages and disadvantages of the Earth Immortal Technique and its conditions.

Emperor Light was momentarily dazed. This method was indeed extraordinary, capable of achieving an alternative form of immortality, which was incredibly tempting. However, the price was one that Emperor Light was unwilling to accept.

Of course, the Emperor of Light never had the opportunity to walk such a path, so he only sighed.

However, another thought arose in the Bright Emperor's mind, startling him. He couldn't help but ask, "Fellow Daoist White Tiger, how many Earth Immortals still exist in this mortal universe today?"

The White Tiger Emperor said, "I don't know either, but I can confirm that the Black Tortoise Emperor has become an Earth Immortal, and there are also Earth Immortals guarding the Underworld and the Immortal Tomb."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Guangming felt a surge of relief. Fortunately, he had chosen Kunlun Immortal Mountain as his first stop, thus avoiding conflict with the other Earth Immortals. After all, the Underworld and the Immortal Mausoleum were his planned destinations for the later ones.

It now seems that he should indeed abandon the idea of ​​incorporating these places into his alliance.

Therefore, the Bright Emperor secretly canceled the rest of his plans and instead began to exchange ideas with the White Tiger Emperor on the method of becoming an immortal.

After learning about the methods of becoming a Celestial Immortal, an Earthly Immortal, and a Mortal Immortal, the Bright Emperor's horizons broadened considerably.

Although he had some guesses about the Reverse Life Transformation before, he was still amazed after confirming that it was a technique of the Immortals in the Mortal World.

Afterwards, the Bright Emperor and the White Tiger Emperor exchanged their cultivation practices and Taoist methods, as well as their insights into transformation.

However, the White Tiger Emperor had lived three lifetimes thanks to the Elixir of Immortality and the Nine-Turn Immortal Pill, and had even become an ancient emperor of the Earth Immortal realm. His cultivation was indeed significantly higher than that of the Bright Emperor.

In addition, his knowledge and experience in the methods of achieving immortality greatly benefited the Bright Emperor in this process.

Finally, the Emperor of Light said, "Fellow Daoist White Tiger, I still do not have an elixir of immortality to prolong my life. I wonder if I could exchange it for a White Tiger Elixir of Immortality fruit from you?"
