Shrouding the Heavens: The Ultimate Daoist Venerable

Chapter 503 Second Generation
The Emperor of Light remained completely baffled as to the identity of the mysterious person who had guided him. The fact that he, as the reigning emperor, hadn't sensed the other's presence at all was terrifying, deeply shocking even the Emperor of Light.

But without a doubt, this is most likely a mythical figure who embarked on the path to immortality in the mortal world.

Having learned about the various ways to become an immortal, the Bright Emperor understood that the so-called Earth Immortals and Corpse-Dissolving Immortals were essentially just using special methods to obtain immortality ahead of time, and did not truly become immortals.

Therefore, even though the White Tiger Emperor had lived three lifetimes in the mortal realm, his improvement after becoming a fourth-stage Earth Immortal wasn't actually that significant. Although the White Tiger Emperor did break through his own limits, he was far from reaching a level that made the Bright Emperor feel unfathomable.

Even after the Emperor of Light secretly sensed the aura of the Immortal Tomb and the Underworld, although he felt a vast aura far surpassing his own, this palpable sense of oppression was ultimately not as terrifying as the one he felt that day when he was completely unaware of it and could not even touch its existence or boundaries.

Having been an emperor for many years, the Bright Emperor was absolutely certain that to reach such a realm, one either had to ascend to another world with better conditions and a higher ceiling than the human universe, or one had heard of the so-called Path to Immortality in the Mortal World and undergone countless reversals of life.

As for the identity of this mysterious person, even the Emperor of Light could not know. After all, the other party had only developed a fully advanced version of the Law of Light that he followed, without revealing any of his own aura, so he had no way of knowing.

Although the Emperor of Light had accepted the fact that he was far from being invincible in the human universe, he still had absolute confidence in his own Dao and Dharma.

At least in this era and even in the countless years of the mythical era before, no one has become an ultimate emperor through cultivating the laws of light like him.

Therefore, it is even more impossible for someone to have mastered and developed the laws of immortal light.

Therefore, this mysterious person is most likely not a practitioner of the Law of Light.

Emperor Guangming had a vague suspicion about such a person.

Based on intuition and speculation, the Bright Emperor roughly guessed Liang Yu's identity. This Limitless Heavenly Venerable had attained enlightenment through the secret method of the character "Dou" and traversed the path of all laws connecting to the heavens.

If he continues to progress, constantly breaking through limits after multiple resurrections and eventually becoming an immortal in the mortal world, then it is indeed not impossible for him to evolve the laws of immortality.

As for the others, none of them practiced the laws of light, nor could they generate all kinds of laws like the Supreme Celestial Venerable Wuji, so their probability was even lower than Liang Yu's.

Moreover, compared to others, Wuji Tianzun was somewhat connected to him. His own divine manifestation of light came from the divine manifestation in the Ancient Scripture of Divine Transformation, and the founder of this scripture was none other than Wuji Tianzun.

Although there was no evidence, the Emperor of Light still tentatively identified the mysterious person as the Supreme Celestial Venerable Wuji.

However, these things were no longer important to him; his personal cultivation was far more important than these secrets.

If he is powerful enough, he can easily learn about these things without needing to pay special attention.

So the Emperor of Light began to concentrate on his arduous cultivation, constantly improving his strength. With the Great Light Seal, he had seen the direction ahead and could proceed to further cultivation.

Time flies, and eight thousand years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Although the bloodline of the Light Emperor provided little additional benefit after he became an Ancient Emperor, and was still considerably inferior to top-tier physiques like the Undying Golden Body, his lifespan was still quite long, reaching a mere 15,000 years in this first incarnation. Moreover, this was only after the Light Emperor used some minor methods to maintain his condition.

Of course, if the Emperor of Light were to use the power of faith to replenish himself, there would still be hope of extending his lifespan for a while longer. However, he has already chosen to ascend, so he will not use this method, which might pose a hidden danger to himself.

Therefore, the immense power of faith that had accumulated over the years was gathered by the Emperor of Light into the Divine Refining Pot, which he had previously crafted from Feathered Azure Gold, in order to enhance the evolution of this powerful artifact.

Therefore, although the Emperor of Light had turned to the new Divine Refining Pot, forged from Radiant White Gold, as his natal magic weapon and diligently refined it, the old Divine Refining Pot continued to evolve and become even more extraordinary.

Furthermore, he used a portion of this power of faith to transform the ancient star of light, making it more abundant and more robust.

Besides himself, the Alliance of All Races and the Law Enforcer Organization also continued to grow, becoming the largest force in the universe. This change was naturally an important reason why he was able to collect such a huge amount of faith power.

Meanwhile, the God of Light race has also grown stronger and stronger in this process, and is no weaker than the top races in the universe that have produced enlightened beings.

Of course, the greatest joy for the God of Light is that the Emperor of Light has had several children over the past few thousand years.

These princes, who inherited the power of the Light Emperor's bloodline, all possess extraordinary talents. Even if they cannot attain enlightenment like their fathers, it is not too difficult for them to become quasi-emperors.

This is the most important foundation and trump card of the Light God Clan.

The Emperor of Light selected the best among these children and, while doing his best to suppress his own Great Dao and reduce his influence, personally taught these children through their childhood and guided them onto the path of cultivation.

In the end, the Emperor of Light chose the most outstanding child and sealed him away, minimizing the influence of his own Dao aura on him.

The Light Emperor hoped that this child, on whom he placed such high hopes, would be born in the future, break through the limitations of his bloodline, and thus become the second emperor of the Light God Clan.

As for the other children, the Emperor of Light knew their chances of attaining enlightenment were not high, so he carefully guided them through their youth, allowing them to accumulate a certain level of cultivation before sealing them away. These princes would serve as the foundation of the Light God Clan.

With several princes as his foundation, the Refining God Pot he had specially left behind as a legacy, several powerful arrays guarding the area, and even the power of faith gathered and transformed around the Refining God Pot to strengthen the pot itself and the Bright Emperor Array, the Bright Emperor was certain he had achieved the ultimate.

During his years of cultivation, the Emperor of Light had discovered that the difficulty of transformation was unimaginable, so he decisively chose to ascend.

All of his actions were for the sake of his people and descendants, so that the Light God Clan could continue to prosper after he left.

After making these preparations for his people, the Radiant Emperor, who was already at the end of his life, swallowed the White Tiger Immortality Fruit and lived a second life.

In this life, he will focus his main energy on his spiritual cultivation.
