Shrouding the Heavens: The Ultimate Daoist Venerable

Chapter 528 Exposed
Getting better and better? Although Chen Chong didn't know what signs would appear before the Taiyin Body died, it was impossible for there to be no abnormalities at all, right?
Chen Chong frowned and said, "Could you describe his appearance in detail?"

Upon hearing this, Changsheng's parents took out a jade disc with a simple magic array engraved on it, reflecting Changsheng's appearance at different ages.

This was something Changsheng specially obtained from those rogue cultivators, so that his parents could still see his appearance as a comfort if he really died young, and wouldn't leave without any mementos.

Chen Chong took the jade disc and examined in detail its appearance at each stage of Changsheng's life so far, his brows furrowing even more.

Since it was just a simple image, Chen Chong couldn't determine its specific situation, but from the remaining aura, he vaguely sensed a strange feeling that was different from the Changsheng he had seen before.

Could it be that his Yin constitution underwent a mutation, and the death calamity disappeared on its own? Or perhaps he had some extraordinary encounter that allowed him to successfully change the problems inherent in his constitution?
A glimmer of hope rose in Chen Chong's heart.

But not wanting to disappoint Changsheng's parents, he simply said, "Where is Changsheng now? I need to see him."

Changsheng's parents said, "We don't know either. But he said he would be back in six months before he left, and that time is almost up now. He should be not far from here, right?"

Chen Chong said, "That's good, it saves me the trouble of going back to look for him."

After saying that, he spread his divine sense and expanded the range along the aura of immortality, and finally succeeded in seeing immortality tens of thousands of miles away.

He immediately vanished from his spot, soaring through the air and instantly arriving beside Changsheng.

Before he could even offer a greeting, he sensed an unusual aura emanating from Changsheng's body. He revealed himself, grabbed Changsheng's wrist, and began to carefully sense the state of his physical constitution.

Chang Sheng was startled when his wrist was restrained without him being able to react. He instinctively activated the Dou Zi Secret Technique to create the Bao Shan Seal in an attempt to counterattack.

However, after recognizing that the visitor was Chen Chong, he dispelled his supernatural powers and allowed him to examine his body.

Having cultivated to the point of perfect perfection in the Four Extremes, Changsheng had a general understanding of his Taiyin body, but he had not discovered any problems that could lead to his death. Therefore, he began to believe that he had solved the problem, but he was not sure without concrete evidence.

After all, Changsheng's cultivation level was far inferior to Chen Chong's, and he didn't know much about the Taiyin Body, so he didn't dare to completely trust his intuition and knowledge.

Now that Chen Chong has come to find him, he can finally find out the final outcome. Therefore, Changsheng can't help but feel a sense of anticipation.

Chen Chong was shocked. Changsheng's physique and cultivation foundation were unparalleled in his life, but that wasn't the most crucial point. The most crucial point was that Changsheng's Taiyin Body had now completely eliminated any uncontrollable power that could harm his body.

In other words, the death calamity of the Longevity Taiyin Body has completely disappeared.

Is it because the Taiyin Body of Longevity is different from other Taiyin Bodies, or did he obtain the Earth Life Fruit or the Elixir of Immortality?

This question made Chen Chong even forget about the Taoist scriptures and the secret of the Dou character.

Seeing Chen Chong release his grip, Chang Sheng asked, "Senior, is there something wrong with my physique?"

Chen Chong, regaining his composure, asked, "You already know?" Chang Sheng replied, "If you are referring to the Taiyin Body, then I do indeed know. Did you come to visit me because you found a way to save my life, or is my time coming?"

Chen Chong said, "No, you have already survived this life-threatening ordeal. From now on, the sky is the limit for birds to fly and the sea is the limit for fish to leap. Perhaps, in the future, you will have the hope of becoming the first person in human history to achieve the Great Completion of the Taiyin Body."

"Can you tell me how you survived that near-death experience?"

Upon hearing this, Changsheng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. With Chen Chong's confirmation, the huge boulder that had been hanging over his head for years was finally completely lifted, making his mind much clearer.

However, as a result, Changsheng lost control of his cultivation level and broke through to the Dragon Transformation Realm, triggering a heavenly tribulation.

Chen Chong's expression changed instantly, and he quickly retreated to the side to avoid triggering his own tribulation. After all, the tribulation of a genius of Changsheng's level must be incredibly terrifying. Even if he had never been injured, he wouldn't have been able to withstand it, let alone now that his origin was severely damaged.

Judging from Changsheng's response, Chen Chong realized that this was probably not the first time he had undergone a tribulation.

This young man's talent, which triggered a heavenly tribulation in the Four Extremes Secret Realm, truly deserves to be called the potential of an ancient emperor.

During his journey to immortality and tribulation, Chen Chong also discovered that he had a profound understanding of Taoist scriptures and the secrets of the "Fighting" character. This is enough to demonstrate that his comprehension is also extraordinary.

After all, the secrets of the Dou character are profound and extremely difficult to master. Just getting started is already a challenge for many, let alone mastering them.

With such comprehension and the Yin Body, this young man may indeed have the potential to become a human emperor and change the current situation of the human race's weakness.

At this moment, Chen Chong made up his mind that no matter where the Daoist scriptures on immortality and the secret of the Dou character came from, he would do his best to protect them.

Soon, Changsheng completed his tribulation and became a cultivator at the first stage of the Dragon Transformation Realm.

After adjusting his own state, Changsheng came to Chen Chong. Changsheng hesitated for a long time about whether to tell him everything that happened that night.

"A common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime." Although he had eaten that unknown fruit a long time ago, after witnessing the crazy things that cultivators on the verge of death did in order to prolong their lives, he still couldn't be sure that he wouldn't be used as a human medicine.

But in the end, he decided to trust his gut feeling.

Changsheng said, "Senior, although I can't be completely sure, since you left, this is the only encounter I've had that might be related to overcoming the death tribulation. It was a vermilion fruit that looked no different from wild fruits in the mountains. I must have eaten this to successfully resolve the death tribulation."

Chen Chong frowned upon hearing this. A vermilion fruit that looked no different from wild mountain fruits? What was that? Could it be the Earth Fate Fruit? But this kind of divine treasure was not ordinary in appearance. Once it was born, its fragrance would spread for thousands of miles and reach the clouds. How could it be born so silently?
Moreover, even if Changsheng has a Yin constitution, it is impossible for the Earth Life Fruit to be completely digested and absorbed directly, so that when he examined Changsheng's body just now, he could not even feel a trace of residual medicinal power.
Chen Chong fell into deep thought, unable to come up with an answer for the time being.

At that moment, a familiar voice came to his ear: "The fruit that this boy ate should indeed be the Earth Fate Fruit, but it was an Earth Fate Fruit that was processed in a special way."

Upon hearing this, Chen Chong was immediately shocked. He looked at the Holy Master of Lingguan who had revealed himself to the side and said, "Senior Brother, what brings you here?"
