Shrouding the Heavens: The Ultimate Daoist Venerable

Chapter 736 Fighting for Life
After digesting and absorbing the secret techniques imparted by the Supreme Celestial Venerable Wuji, Emperor Wanlong rose again. Looking at the Supreme Celestial Venerable Wuji, who had completely vanished, he couldn't help but sigh in awe. This Supreme Celestial Venerable was truly unimaginably powerful. As the current emperor, he couldn't even see through a single wisp of his divine sense—this was a qualitative difference.

However, it's not surprising that someone who, upon attaining enlightenment, far surpasses ordinary cultivators and exists only in legends, is inferior to him. Therefore, the Dragon Emperor quickly calmed down and headed towards the Ancient Dragon Star.

The successful ascension of the Dragon Emperor brought jubilation to the ancient star of the Dragon Emperor. The emergence of an emperor signifies an unprecedented leap forward for their lineage, transforming them into a true royal family.

In today's human universe, although there are quite a few races and forces that have produced Dao-proving individuals, they are still just a drop in the ocean in such a vast universe.

Therefore, as long as they use the Dragon Emperor to make their race the new royal family, they will be able to roam freely in this star field.

Moreover, even disregarding all of that, in terms of individual cultivation alone, they can still obtain immense benefits from the Myriad Dragon Emperor.

The fact that Wanlonghuang could become an emperor means that he has conducted a very deep study of the bloodline of his Wanlong clan and developed it to its fullest potential.

Those who cultivate the Myriad Dragon Emperor Scripture and its supernatural powers can naturally use this to further develop their bloodline and gain a more powerful foundation.

Emperor Wanlong was well aware of this. He had originally been groomed to be the leader of the Wanlong clan, and now that he had truly become an emperor, it was time for him to give back to his people.

Upon his return, the Emperor of Ten Thousand Dragons fully opened up the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest and completely transformed its various array patterns, turning it into a new and important place that served as both a war fortress and a sacred cultivation ground. Naturally, this place also became his training ground and residence.

After that, Emperor Wanlong began to use various means to transform Wanlong Ancient Star, making the foundation of the entire ancient star even more profound.

Next comes the ultimate imperial weapon, which is crucial for the inheritance of the royal family.

The Myriad Dragons Emperor's Myriad Dragons Bell could not simply remain in the human universe. He would need this natal divine weapon to protect him after entering the strange world in the future. Therefore, he needed to forge a new supreme imperial weapon before leaving the human universe.

Therefore, the Emperor of Ten Thousand Dragons set his sights on the weapon left behind by the progenitor of the Ten Thousand Dragons Clan. This weapon had been severely damaged in several wars over the past hundreds of thousands of years and was no longer of any use. However, it was still a weapon forged by a supreme being who had attained enlightenment in a unique way.

If the Emperor of Ten Thousand Dragons were to repair this weapon and further refine it with his own Dao and Dharma, he could evolve this supreme weapon into an ultimate imperial weapon, thus saving a great deal of hard work.

Therefore, while researching the True Dragon Immortal Elixir to evolve himself, Wanlong Emperor also used the immortal gold he had previously collected as materials to repair this supreme artifact and continuously refine it, allowing it to further evolve into an ultimate imperial weapon.

Since their paths and methods are essentially the same, the process wasn't too difficult. Moreover, ultimately, the difference between the supreme artifacts of alternative paths and the ultimate imperial weapons is not that great; they are very similar.

As for his scriptures and secret techniques, the Dragon Emperor naturally passed them down without reservation. However, the Dragon Transformation Secret Technique that the Boundless Celestial Venerable had passed on to him in his childhood, as well as the secret technique for condensing dragon blood that he later acquired, were left in the Dragon Nest by the Dragon Emperor. Only the high-ranking members and the most outstanding geniuses of his clan could learn them, as an advanced version of the inheritance.

As for the upgraded Dragon Transformation Technique he is currently cultivating, the Dragon Emperor hesitated about whether to pass it down. After all, to comprehend such a technique, one would probably need at least an extraordinary level of spiritual attainment.

After a brief moment of deliberation, the Dragon Emperor left this secret technique within the Supreme Artifact he was currently refining, as the final part of his legacy.

Although Emperor Wanlong felt that his descendants might not have enough powerful figures to cultivate this secret technique, the world was full of wonders, and no one knew what might happen in the future.

Thinking of the unfathomable realm of the Supreme Celestial Venerable Wuji, Emperor Wanlong immediately made up his mind. He decided to trust his descendants, believing that with a figure like the Supreme Celestial Venerable Wuji existing, the human universe would inevitably undergo changes beyond his control. Therefore, he would leave behind as much as he could.

After completing all this, Wanlonghuang went into seclusion to cultivate and began to comprehend the secret techniques passed down by Wuji Tianzun, in order to further explore the mysteries of the True Dragon Immortal Elixir.

Of course, the Wanlong Emperor's secluded cultivation was not just about ascetic practice; he also extended his lineage and left behind his bloodline.

After all, for a royal family, princes are one of the most important assets.

And so time flew by, and nearly seven thousand years passed in the blink of an eye.

In the heart of Mount Tai, the Holy Emperor of the Sun finally met the end of his life.

The fifth Sun Emperor lived for a total of 50,000 years, which means that his lifespan is now at the same level as that of the fifth Moon Emperor at that time.

On the surface, this suggests that his achievements were no less than those of the Yin Emperor. In fact, if we consider that the Sun Emperor had two selves, each living for 50,000 years, while the Yin Emperor was alone throughout his life, then the Sun Emperor's achievements might even surpass those of the Yin Emperor.

But in reality, the Sun Emperor was well aware that his current achievements were actually lagging behind.

During his fifty thousand years of cultivation, the Sun Saint Emperor successfully mastered the changes of Lesser Yin and Lesser Yang, just like the Yin Human Emperor, and completely perfected his own Yin-Yang Harmony Way. However, his achievements in the unity of Yin and Yang to generate chaos were still insufficient.

The former Taiyin Emperor not only cultivated the power of Yin and Yang to an extremely high level, naturally generating a large number of chaotic laws, but he also directly cultivated a lot of chaotic laws by relying on the two chaotic immortal scriptures obtained from Wuji Tianzun and Yuanshi Tianzun. By comparing and combining the two, the Taiyin Emperor succeeded in transforming himself into a chaotic body, living out his sixth life, and roughly determining the second half of his path to immortality in the mortal world.

It can be said that at this time, the Taiyin Human Emperor could definitely be considered one of the two great seeds of the Mortal Immortals, alongside the Immortal Heavenly Emperor.

However, after his fifth incarnation, the Sun Emperor realized that he was actually stuck by the yin-yang unity, which was why his progress was slow.

Is this the limit?
The Sun Emperor has no other way to reverse life; now, the only path left is to take a risk and merge his two bodies.

Judging from the experience of the Taiyin Emperor, even if he succeeds this time, he still has several more difficult hurdles to overcome. The Sun Emperor himself clearly realized that he probably wouldn't be able to complete this mortal immortal path.

After all, even if he becomes a Chaos Body, he will still have to face even more difficult obstacles in the future, and the difficulty of overcoming them will only be higher.

In fact, the achievements of the Sun Emperor in reaching this lifetime far surpass those of most Dao Prodigies. If he were to stop here and directly enter the strange world to cultivate using longevity substances, even if he could not become a Mortal Immortal, he would definitely have limitless potential.

But the Sun Emperor ultimately decided to risk everything and try his luck at becoming an immortal.
