Shrouding the Heavens: The Ultimate Daoist Venerable

Chapter 591: A show of force

Upon hearing that Changsheng had completed his cultivation, the human cultivators were immediately relieved and recounted what Xiao Ran had done and Xin Lingxiao's performance upon emerging from seclusion.

If Changsheng hadn't completed his accumulation, they planned to keep it a secret and let him continue his seclusion to prevent it from affecting his cultivation. But now that he has, they naturally need to ask him to resolve this matter.

In fact, the moment Changsheng appeared, cultivators of Cangyun and Mu Renqing's level could already vaguely sense that terrifying aura, which seemed similar to that of a true Dao Prover, capable of completely suppressing them.

But just in case, Cangyun couldn't help but ask first, and only after confirming this did he reveal all the recent events.

Over the course of more than a hundred years, Changsheng made continuous progress and finally crossed this insurmountable barrier, allowing himself to advance steadily and touch upon the secrets of enlightenment, making his strength far surpass that of the past and undergoing a qualitative change.

In this state, it would have been easy for Changsheng to trigger the Great Tribulation of Proving the Dao, and the probability of him surviving the Great Tribulation of Proving the Dao was not low, but he did not do so.

Reaching the point of being able to make the ultimate leap at the age of 1200 is an incredibly rapid speed, even by historical standards. Aside from a few exceptional geniuses, this speed is unimaginably fast.

Changsheng only paused temporarily when he sensed that his progress had become very slow and that there had been a qualitative change compared to before. After making some adjustments, he came out of seclusion. However, he vaguely felt that he had not yet reached his limit, the point where he could not make any further progress.

However, this is normal. In the accumulation phase before the final leap, although most people have completed their accumulation and have no more room for improvement, they still cannot overcome the tribulation of proving the Dao. Only a small number of people can barely overcome the tribulation and become emperors by relying on their own accumulation.

However, some people have higher potential and can accumulate more at this stage, thus gaining strength that surpasses that of ordinary emperors after the final leap.

Changsheng has only reached the state before the ultimate leap of a general emperor, but his potential is obviously even greater than that of an ordinary emperor, so he can naturally accumulate more before the ultimate leap.

For Changsheng now, becoming an emperor is no longer too difficult, so he naturally wants to do his best and strive to become an even more powerful emperor.

The Wuji Heavenly Venerable and Yuanshi Heavenly Venerable of the mythological era, and the Immortal Emperor of this era, all achieved far greater accomplishments than ordinary people during the accumulation phase before their ultimate leap. Therefore, after attaining enlightenment, they directly surpassed ordinary emperors.

Even the Undying Saint Emperor and the Azure Sky Overlord Emperor, who relied on the Dao Integration Flower to break through their cultivation barriers, became far superior to ordinary emperors due to their various accumulations and cultivations before their ultimate leap, as well as their development of their physical constitution.

Although he didn't have absolute certainty about immortality, he still hoped to become such an emperor and achieve even greater success.

Compared to the Heavenly Emperor, who is revered by all races, the Human Emperor, as the sovereign of the human race, seems to be slightly inferior. However, Changsheng still hopes that this title can rival the Heavenly Emperor and become the most prestigious title of this era.

Moreover, Changsheng has not yet defeated his contemporaries such as the Beast God, Xin Lingxiao, Brahma, Five Qi, and Xuanhuang, and his state of mind has not yet reached its most perfect state. It would be inappropriate to take this step rashly.

Originally, Changsheng wanted to travel the universe in the remaining time to seek further methods, but now that he had heard about Xiao Ran and Xin Lingxiao, he naturally had to put his previous idea of ​​going to the God Clan back on the agenda.

Upon witnessing Xin Lingxiao's capture of the near-peak ninth-level prodigy of the ancient clan in a single move, Changsheng couldn't help but remark, "Xin Lingxiao hasn't appeared for so many years, yet he hasn't fallen behind. Instead, he maintains a cultivation speed comparable to mine and the Beast God. As the son of the Ming Emperor, he shows no signs of waning in ability, which is truly astonishing."

"It seems I'll have to go and meet him first this time."

Gu Tan said, "The Divine Race has a profound foundation, and Emperor Ming has only recently ascended to immortality. The Divine Race is probably a den of dragons and tigers within its ranks. Human Emperor, please bring the Six Paths Treasure Wheel, just in case."

The True Profound God Lord also said, "Human Emperor, the divine sword of my True Profound Divine Dynasty was forged by Emperor Ming, so we have some connection. Please take this sword with you as well." Chang Sheng laughed and said, "At our level, the effectiveness of the ultimate imperial weapon has decreased a lot and it no longer has an overwhelming effect. Moreover, I believe in Xin Lingxiao. He would not use such a thing to deal with me."

“Even if he really intends to use the Supreme Imperial Weapon to deal with me, I already have ways to deal with it, so there’s no need to worry. I’ll go to the Divine Clan first, bring Xiao Ran back, and then we’ll discuss the matters of the Ancient Clan.”

"Before I engage in a decisive battle with the Beast God, we must also prepare to eliminate these ancient clan forces."

Before he finished speaking, Changsheng's figure had already disappeared into the vast starry sky. Even Mu Renqing and Cangyun did not see when or how he left.

Cangyun sighed, "The Human Emperor's achievements are indeed extraordinary, far surpassing our level. However, he is not yet a true emperor. What if the gods use the methods left behind by the Ming Emperor..."

Gu Tan said, "Then we need to pay attention to the ancestral star of the Divine Race. Once they use the methods of the Bright Emperor, their aura will not be concealed. At that time, we will ask our ancestor's divine sense to take action."

Cangyun said, "This is the only way."

Therefore, they immediately deployed their own supreme imperial weapons to this location and kept a close watch on the movements of the Divine Race's ancestral star to prevent any accidents from occurring.

Changsheng's figure flashed by in an instant and soon arrived outside the ancient star of the God Clan. He did not hide his aura, but released his supreme and emperor-like aura.

The moment this aura was sensed, the protective array of the ancestral star of the gods quickly activated, protecting the ancestral star within it. The presence of an unparalleled god-king faintly emerged, protecting the ancestral star within the divine kingdom that had been opened around him.

A figure emerged from the great formation; it was none other than Xin Lang, the innate divine blood supreme of the current generation of the God Clan, who later evolved into the Divine Emperor Body.

Xin Lang held a divine spear, and everything about him, from himself to the spear, shone with divine light, making him appear like a supreme god descending to earth.

This divine spear is two-colored, forged from two different kinds of immortal metal, and exudes an aura of supreme dominance.

It was made by Emperor Ming using fragments of a divine spear left by the progenitor of the gods in the mythical era as raw materials, adding another kind of immortal metal to reshape it, making it an ultimate imperial weapon and a precious treasure passed down in the divine race.

Xin Lang came to see Chang Sheng with this divine spear, clearly indicating that he had ill intentions.

Changsheng said, "Brother Xin, it's been so many years, are you welcoming me like this?"

Xin Lang said, "Stop talking nonsense. I know you're here for Xiao Ran. If you want to enter my ancient star, you'll have to take my shot first."

Chang Sheng said, "Is this a show of force?"

Xin Lang said, "Think what you want."

As he spoke, his divine blood boiled and burned, raising his aura to its limit, and the divine spear was also fully revived, its energy locking onto immortality.
