Shrouding the Heavens: The Ultimate Daoist Venerable

Chapter 712 Moral Success
After leaving Wuji Immortal Mountain, the Taiyin Human Emperor immediately headed towards Mount Tai.

The Sun Emperor, or rather the Sun Saint Emperor, was after all progressing and exploring the path of immortality in the mortal world with his help. Moreover, he was the second emperor and a like-minded fellow Daoist. Therefore, Taiyin paid close attention to his cultivation.

He himself had come from the path of Yin and Yang, and had a deep understanding of the risks at this stage. If the Sun Emperor were to be careless, there was a high possibility that something would go wrong.

Of course, this junior has extremely high talent and also has various ways to ensure his survival, such as elixirs of immortality and nine-turn immortal pills. Therefore, it would not be surprising if he succeeded. The Taiyin Emperor was just a little worried.

After sensing the aura of the Sun Saint Emperor, the Taiyin Human Emperor was also somewhat surprised. The two auras, which shared the same origin but had different laws, were clearly the results of the Sun Saint Emperor's current life.

Although he was far behind himself and had not yet reached the point of yin and yang harmony, his unconventional dual yin and yang body still impressed the Taiyin Emperor with its ingenuity.

Although this achievement has dispersed the power of the Sun Emperor, making his lifespan in this life shorter, he will unleash even greater potential when his two bodies merge in the future. This can be considered a trade-off.

The Sun Saint Emperor was naturally not surprised by the appearance of the Taiyin Human Emperor. This predecessor had already lived for six lifetimes, far ahead of him. It would be no problem for him to break through his defensive array and enter Mount Tai. Moreover, most of the array patterns in Mount Tai originated from the Taiyin Human Emperor himself.

Looking at the Yin-Yang dual bodies he had created, the Taiyin Human Emperor couldn't help but say, "Fellow Daoist, you've really taken a risky approach. While creating these Yin-Yang dual bodies may yield greater results, it also greatly increases the risks you face when you undergo a transformation through the fusion of Yin and Yang in the future. I'm afraid that's not a good idea."

The Sun Emperor said, "If we don't do this, I don't have the confidence that we can complete the final union of Yin and Yang in time. The path to immortality in the mortal world is inherently fraught with risks. Doing it doesn't guarantee success, but not doing it guarantees failure."

The Sun Emperor was somewhat confident in achieving transformation through the balance of Yin and Yang. However, it took the Moon Emperor 90,000 years to accumulate the necessary resources from the balance of Yin and Yang to the unity of Yin and Yang, and the transformation process itself took as long as 100,000 years. At this point, the Sun Emperor clearly had no other means of protection. Therefore, it was highly unlikely that he would need to complete all the necessary accumulations for the unity of Yin and Yang in his fifth incarnation in a much shorter time than the Moon Emperor.

Therefore, although the dual-body fusion is very risky, it is indeed an effective way for the Sun Emperor to increase his chances of success.

Although the Moon Emperor was somewhat worried about the Sun Emperor's decision, what the Sun Emperor said was indeed true, so the Moon Emperor did not say anything more.

He looked at the Human Emperor Seal and said, "Fellow Daoist, you should be able to refine the Human Emperor Seal further and make it a celestial artifact. Why are you deliberately not taking this step?"

The Sun Emperor said, "I only hope that a third Human Emperor will appear in this era to complete this step. Although this is just a premonition, or even a fantasy, I am willing to believe in this possibility, just as you once believed that I would appear."

The Yin Emperor said, "Good."

Afterwards, the Lunar Emperor exchanged ideas with the Sun Emperor, imparting some new secrets he had learned. He was already 60,000 years old in this life, his peak long past. In at most another 10,000 to 20,000 years, he would attempt his next transformation. And by then, how many years would that transformation take was unimaginable; it might even take hundreds of thousands of years.

Therefore, by handing these things over to him early on, I can focus on my future spiritual practice.

Moreover, the Taiyin Emperor still has a request from the ancient celestial venerable from the mythological era. If he hasn't received that similar flower before the end of this life, he may need to entrust this matter to the Sun Saint Emperor.

After completing the exchange, the Taiyin Human Emperor left Mount Tai and began to capture the patterns of the laws of heaven and earth in various ancient life-bearing lands and the void of the universe, accumulating knowledge for his future transformation.

Just then, a strange event occurred within Mount Daluo. The Celestial Venerable of Morality, who had been silent for seventy thousand years, finally completed his final transformation and lived out his ninth incarnation.

After discussing the Dao with Yuanshi Tianzun and Lingbao Tianzun, Daode Tianzun, by taking advantage of Yuanshi Tianzun's special state of being untouched by the passage of time, successfully integrated all the accumulations from his previous eight lifetimes and finally grasped the core essence of becoming a mortal immortal. He then began to use these insights to complete his final transformation, thus transcending the boundary between immortals and mortals and becoming a truly immortal mortal immortal.

In the span of seventy thousand years, after thirty thousand years of transformation, the Celestial Venerable of Morality had already reached the point where he could initiate his ninth incarnation and attain immortality. However, it is clear that this was merely crossing that threshold and did not reach the most perfect state for him.

After learning that there was still an unimaginably long road ahead after becoming a Red Dust Immortal, and that his fellow Daoist, the Boundless Great Celestial Venerable, was already close to reaching the pinnacle of Red Dust Immortal, the Moral Celestial Venerable was naturally no longer satisfied with merely becoming a Red Dust Immortal.

Therefore, he suppressed his impulse to immediately become a mortal immortal and fulfill his long-cherished wish of millions of years, and instead began to use this transformation to build his own supreme immortal body, just like the Wuji Dao Body that the Wuji Heavenly Venerable once achieved.

Although the Celestial Venerable of Morality did not continue to advance on the path of physical evolution, he had already developed the Supreme Immortal Body during his fourth incarnation in reverse life, and had a profound foundation in this method. Therefore, during these 40,000 years of transformation, he successfully transformed himself into another immortal immortal body that was completely different from before.

It's hard to say what this constitution should be called, because it is the sublimation of all the Dao fruits achieved by the Celestial Venerable of Morality from the beginning of his cultivation to the present day, having lived through nine lifetimes. Perhaps it would be most appropriate to simply call it the Immortal Body of Morality.

After all, this is the most suitable true immortal body for the Celestial Venerable Morality himself.

The Celestial Venerable of Morality opened his eyes. Before truly becoming a mortal immortal and achieving his long-held goal, he was filled with trepidation, yet also excitement and anticipation, as if he could see a vast future ahead. But after his true success, his heart became as still as water, able to remain calm and composed, without any ripples in his mind.

At this moment, the four immortal artifacts he had crafted sensed this aura of immortality. They all relinquished their control over the external array and came to the side of the Celestial Venerable of Morality, saying in unison, "Congratulations, Master, on becoming an immortal in the mortal world and achieving eternal life!"
