Shrouding the Heavens: The Ultimate Daoist Venerable

Chapter 756 Meeting
After the battle with the God Emperor, the Heavenly Emperor's son once again witnessed the terrifying power and astonishing potential of this figure, whom even his father acknowledged and feared.

The Emperor's son said, "This is truly terrifying. Divine Emperor, I hope we will have the opportunity to fight again in the future."

The God Emperor said, "Then you'd better work hard, I won't wait for you."

The Crown Prince said, "See you in the future."

Having achieved his goal, the Heavenly Emperor's son turned and left, entering the depths of the Primordial Ancient Mine. Before the Divine Emperor, another figure appeared.

The Divine Emperor frowned: "You are... the Primordial Emperor?"

The Yuan Emperor, who has lived for 20,000 years in his fourth life, said, "It is I. I have long admired the name of the Divine Emperor. It is an honor to meet you today. Please come in. The Heavenly Emperor and his son still need to say goodbye. Let me first receive you, Fellow Daoist Divine Emperor."

Having once defeated a prince of the Yuan Dynasty and seen the supreme imperial weapon inherited from the Primordial Lake lineage, the Divine Emperor naturally guessed the identity of the Yuan Dynasty from the familiar yet unfamiliar aura of this figure.

The Divine Emperor was somewhat surprised by the Yuan Emperor's presence in the Primordial Ancient Mine, but it was also somewhat expected. Upon entering the Primordial Ancient Mine, the Divine Emperor sensed the primordial aura of this place, an aura he had previously detected from the Supreme Imperial Weapon in the Primordial Lake.

Therefore, it was not entirely unexpected that the Emperor Yuan was now in seclusion in the Taichu Ancient Mine.

The Divine Emperor said, "I didn't expect that Fellow Daoist Yuanhuang is still in the mortal realm, and has even made such a great improvement. It seems that there are quite a few hidden experts in this mortal universe."

Aside from their weapons, Yuanhuang's first and second incarnations were comparable to ordinary Dao Proverbs, at most slightly better, with no significant difference. However, after surviving his third incarnation thanks to the Primordial Immortal Scripture, Yuanhuang surpassed ordinary Dao Proverbs by a considerable margin. After all, regardless of whether it was due to luck or cleverness, this was still a genuine transformation.

Later, the fourth incarnation of the Yuan Emperor experienced even greater advancements. Over the past hundred thousand years, the Yuan Emperor, through the combination of the gourd vine and the semi-finished immortal essence, finally gave birth to eight divine embryos.

Afterwards, Emperor Yuan completely merged these eight divine embryos into one, allowing them to truly take shape and live out their fourth life, thus achieving an extremely perfect transformation. This transformation completely reborn Emperor Yuan, enabling him to achieve a leap forward in progress.

After all, this is a transformation method that combines the Immortal Essence of Longevity, the Primordial Immortal Scripture, and the Laws of the Gourd Immortal Vine. Although the Yuan Emperor's Immortal Essence of Longevity method is only a half-finished product, the enhancement from the Divine Embryo of the Gourd Immortal Vine is indeed extraordinary.

Now that the Yuan Emperor is using the Immortal-Slaying Gourd and the God-Destroying Gourd, he can naturally command the respect of the God Emperor.

Of course, even though they are both in their fourth generation, the Divine Emperor is still far ahead of the Yuan Emperor.

Yuanhuang shook his head and said, "I am ashamed. I have already reached my limit by living out this life. Unlike you, Fellow Daoist Divine Emperor, you have an infinite future and may become a mortal immortal."

As the two were speaking, a flash of light appeared, cleaving a rift in the void.

For the current God Emperor and Yuan Emperor, it is natural that they can see that the world beyond the rift is the so-called strange world, which is the world they go to after ascending through the Immortal Gate.

Judging from the aura emanating from the cracks, this is clearly a world where immortality is possible, but it is still in the Dharma-ending Age.

If they could enter such a world, then enlightened beings like them could gain at least millions of years or even longer to cultivate, enough for them to achieve even greater results.

However, what amazed the Divine Emperor and the Primordial Emperor the most was that blade of light, that unparalleled divine power from the Undying Heavenly Emperor.

After all, it would be very easy for the two of them to enter the strange world now, while it is rare for the Undying Emperor to take action. In fact, given that the Heavenly Emperor's son has fused the Dao Fruits of two lifetimes and achieved complete perfection, he can enter the Immortal Realm without any hindrance as long as he can reach the Immortal Gate, without the need for the Undying Emperor to intervene.

The reason why the immortal emperor did this was also out of concern for his son.

Now that the child who once made him very dissatisfied has overcome himself and achieved mental growth, he has changed his opinion of him. Therefore, the Immortal Emperor naturally put away his previous cold and stern attitude and expressed his approval to him.

The fact that the Immortal Emperor personally escorted him to the strange world was also a gesture made by him.

Of course, there was another important reason why the Immortal Emperor did this: he would contact the Fire Emperor, Ning Fei, and others in the strange world every now and then through the Flying Immortal Waterfall, so he knew which part of the strange world they were in.

He personally broke through the barrier between the two realms, hoping to send the Heavenly Emperor's son to the region closest to the Fire Emperor, so that the mother and son could reunite as soon as possible and prevent any unexpected situations from occurring.

The prince was well aware of this. After bidding farewell to his father, he went to another world and continued to move towards his future.

The Divine Emperor couldn't help but sigh, "This is truly terrifying. I probably couldn't withstand this strike now. I thought the gap between us wasn't that big anymore, but it seems I was too optimistic."

The Emperor said, "The Emperor is now on the path to living out his seventh life, so he is naturally far ahead."

The God Emperor nodded slightly, becoming increasingly certain that he could gain enough insights from the Undying Emperor to better explore the direction of the future.

At this moment, the Immortal Emperor said, "Please come in, both of you. I am in a special condition and have difficulty moving around. Please excuse my rudeness."

The Emperor Yuan said quietly, "The Emperor has transformed himself into a vessel by studying the method of corpse dissolution to achieve a metamorphosis when he transcends in the future, which is why he did this."

The God Emperor was taken aback upon hearing this, but he wasn't particularly surprised. As the number one person in this era so far, it was only right that he could do these things.

Led by the Yuan Emperor, the Divine Emperor also entered the core mine of the Primordial Ancient Mine and saw the Immortal Emperor who had turned into a statue.

The emperor said, "Greetings, Your Majesty."

The God Emperor looked at the statue and sensed its terrifying aura and surging vitality, which was completely unlike the state of a celestial artifact.

The Undying Emperor said, "Fellow Daoist Divine Emperor, I have long admired you. I don't know why, but although this is our first meeting, I feel that we are destined to be friends and can become fellow Daoists who greatly inspire each other."

The God Emperor said, "Perhaps it's because we all possess special bloodline power, and it's possible that we can use it to forge our own paths."

The Undying Emperor said, "So, Fellow Daoist Divine Emperor, you have also realized this? That's right. My Immortal Phoenix bloodline contains the power of Nirvana, while your Divine Silkworm bloodline contains the power of metamorphosis. These two powers are very compatible with the Path of Immortal in the Mortal World and can significantly reduce the difficulty."

"The path to immortality in the mortal world requires repeated transformations to comprehend the true meaning of immortality, thus remaining untouched by the passage of time. Fellow Daoist, you are undoubtedly the most suitable being in this mortal universe to walk the path of immortality in the mortal world."
