Shrouding the Heavens: The Ultimate Daoist Venerable

Chapter 753 Divine Embryo Unity and Transformation

Within the Divine Silkworm Ridge, the Divine Emperor suddenly frowned and gazed towards the high heavens. As the current emperor who had merged with the Heavenly Heart Mark, and also among the strongest and most promising Dao Prodigies, the Divine Emperor vaguely sensed an unusual fluctuation.

Of course, he didn't catch this fluctuation at all, nor did he perceive any abnormality in the changes of the Heavenly Heart Imprint and the myriad paths of the universe. It was just a feeling, without any empirical evidence.

However, for a cultivator of his level, the possibility of suddenly having a delusion is extremely low. Therefore, even without any evidence, something significant must have just happened.

Could it be that someone has made some terrifying progress? Has someone become a mortal immortal? Or perhaps...?

The God Emperor didn't dwell on it any longer. These matters were irrelevant to him now and would only add to his stress. As he grew stronger in the future, he would eventually learn about these things, so there was no need to worry about them now.

The God Emperor stopped paying attention to the outside world and continued his cultivation. In fact, if he hadn't suddenly noticed something amiss, he wouldn't have interrupted his cultivation.

Within the Primordial Ancient Mine, the Undying Emperor sensed this aura but didn't pay it much attention. After all, this aura far surpassed that of the Mortal Immortals he had previously sensed, so it was highly likely that his master had achieved a new breakthrough and caused this.

Wuji Tianzun is the one who has gone the furthest on the path to immortality so far; it is unlikely that others will achieve such a breakthrough before him.

Therefore, the Immortal Emperor does not need to pay too much attention to this matter. As long as he successfully undergoes Nirvana in the future and sees the Boundless Heavenly Venerable again, he will naturally know what happened.

The Yuan Emperor was completely unaware of this. This was partly due to his cultivation level, and partly because his transformation had reached a crucial juncture.

Ninety thousand years have passed since the Yuan Emperor planted his divine embryo into the gourd vine to nurture and transform it.

Over the first 70,000 years, the divine embryo of the Yuan Emperor continued to grow and expand. Every 10,000 years, a portion of it would be separated and merged into the gourds that the gourd vine produced as it grew. In this way, his seven divine embryos were conceived in the seven gourds that were born.

However, during this process, Emperor Yuan realized that seven divine embryos were not enough, so he had an eighth divine embryo, which he placed in the gourd vine and nurtured for 20,000 years before it was fully successful.

Under the protection and nurturing of the Immortal-Slaying Gourd and the God-Destroying Gourd, his seven divine embryos grew steadily over the years and reached the point where they could be born.

However, these seven divine embryos are only a part of him. If he were to release them like this, they would inevitably fight over who is the primary one, and might even want to become independent, which would affect his own perfection.

Therefore, although the Emperor Yuan was making these seven divine embryos grow stronger, he always kept them in the gestation stage and never let them be born.

Now that his divine embryo, which resides within the immortal vine, has finally taken shape, he can release all seven divine embryos at once, allowing his main divine embryo to merge all seven gourd divine embryos into one, thus truly living out his fourth life.

Thus, under the suppression of the Immortal-Slaying Gourd and the God-Destroying Gourd, all seven gourds cracked open, turned into dust and dissipated, leaving only seven juvenile versions of the Yuan Emperor.

From the moment they were born, they were full of boundless energy, climbing up and down the gourd vines and running around digging in the Primordial Ancient Mine, just like seven mischievous children.

Upon witnessing this scene, the Yuanhuang main divine embryo, still within the immortal vine, truly confirmed its success. It then used the vine's attraction to the gourd to enhance its own pull on the seven divided divine embryos, thus incorporating them all into its main body and beginning the process of fusion and unification. This transformation would undoubtedly grant it unprecedented achievements, marking a leap forward. Of course, this transformation would not be like its previous gestation stage, which typically took at most tens of thousands of years to complete.

Thus, the Emperor Yuan also fell into silence, but from time to time, seven-colored divine light would flash within the body of this divine embryo.

After everything in the human universe returned to peace, ten thousand years flew by, and the God Emperor reached the end of his second life.

The God Emperor's second life was achieved through the elixir of immortality, so his lifespan did not increase and still ended at around 25,000 years.

During his cultivation in this lifetime, the God Emperor's own battle armor was naturally completed, becoming even more divine, and only one final leap away from becoming a celestial artifact. Of course, that's what it sounds like; crossing that line is still extremely difficult.

The battle armor he prepared for his own Shencanling lineage had long been completed. From then on, the Shencanling lineage basically did not need his extra attention to stand tall in the human universe and become a top royal family.

Thus, the God Emperor began his transformation.

In his previous two lifetimes of cultivation, the God Emperor, who paid little attention to external affairs, had more time and energy to study the method of transformation. Moreover, his divine silkworm bloodline was very compatible with the method of transformation required for the path to immortality in the mortal world. Therefore, the God Emperor's progress was actually very fast.

Back when he was still at his peak in his second life, he had already accumulated enough immortal essence to allow himself to undergo a transformation.

But for the God Emperor, living out his third life was not the most important thing. The key was to use his lineage of divine silkworms, which were extremely skilled in metamorphosis, to study the essence of metamorphosis from the methods of metamorphosis, and thus explore the direction for his eleventh transformation of the divine silkworm from mortal to immortal.

Therefore, during this period, he had been trying his best to study the mysteries of the Longevity Immortal Essence and combine the principle of transformation with the Longevity Immortal Essence with the transformation method of his own Divine Silkworm lineage.

And this time, it will be his time to reap the rewards.

In fact, the path of the God Emperor is somewhat similar to that of the Undying Emperor. The Undying Emperor comes from the Celestial Phoenix Clan and possesses the power of Nirvana, which can significantly reduce the difficulty of the mortal immortal path. He can even use the same method to achieve Nirvana multiple times.

The Divine Silkworm Clan of the God Emperor is extremely skilled in the art of metamorphosis, which can greatly reduce the difficulty of the Path to Immortality in the Mortal World. In the original timeline, he embarked on his Path to Immortality in the Mortal World only after existing for a long period of time that made the Supreme Being of the Forbidden Zone feel despair, and ultimately succeeded.

However, the price of relying on racial bloodlines to reduce the difficulty is that their transformation time is longer and longer, often taking millions of years.

When the Divine Emperor survived his first life with the help of the Nine Wonders Elixir of Immortality, he had already tried to use the Ten Transformations of the Divine Silkworm to enhance the efficacy of the elixir of immortality as much as possible, but ultimately the results were minimal.

However, the immortal essence that can be used for transformation is different. This is a crucial step that can truly match his transformation method, thus making his path clearer.

The Divine Emperor catalyzed the Immortal Essence of Longevity, and with the help of the Ten Transformations of the Divine Silkworm, he underwent a metamorphosis and successfully lived out his third life.
