Shrouding the Heavens: The Ultimate Daoist Venerable

Chapter 762 Visiting the Boundless Immortal Mountain

After absorbing all the transformation techniques contained within the nine-layered coffin, the God Emperor put away the stone coffin and continued on his way back to the direction he had been searching for.

After all, he had consumed a lot of this aura during his deduction process. If he couldn't find a place to completely exhaust it, he would lose a great opportunity.

However, having obtained such an opportunity so soon after setting off for Wuji Immortal Mountain, the Divine Emperor couldn't help but have even greater expectations for this trip.

He traversed the endless starry sky and finally came upon a celestial mountain. Every inch of its land exuded an inexplicable aura of immortality, as if it were a part of the celestial realm descended to earth. Even a mere glimpse of this primordial energy filled the God Emperor with exhilaration, giving him the illusion of ascending to heaven.

Without a doubt, only the Wuji Immortal Mountain, the Daoist temple of the Wuji Heavenly Venerable, possesses such an aura in this mortal universe. While both are extraordinary places, the Primordial Ancient Mine is simply not in the same league as this one.

The Divine Emperor took a deep breath and then headed towards the Immortal Mountain.

Surprisingly, unlike the Primordial Ancient Mine, this immortal mountain seemed to lack a protective array. At least, even after entering the mountain, the God Emperor himself couldn't sense any array patterns.

But for some reason, the God Emperor subconsciously dared not step out of the path in front of him.

Even though he didn't see anything unusual, his intuition told him that every blade of grass, every tree, and every inch of land here exuded a dangerous aura, and he must not make any contact with it.

This could be a special array pattern, or some other method; in any case, it must be something that even the God Emperor cannot fully comprehend at present. The fact that such a method existed made the God Emperor feel an even stronger sense of awe towards the Great Celestial Venerable he had yet to meet.

Just as the God Emperor was somewhat alarmed, a figure dressed in a Taoist robe quietly appeared in front of him. He exuded a pure and natural aura, as if he were born with heaven and earth and one with all things. Whether it was the Boundless Immortal Mountain or the human universe, they were all one with him.

At the same time, he also exuded a faint air of immortality and celestial grace.

Although the Divine Emperor's realm was far from that of the Mortal Immortal, he still sensed that this must be the Mortal Immortal's special aura.

The figure's appearance was exactly the same as the legendary Wuji Heavenly Venerable. Could he be Wuji Heavenly Venerable? But for some reason, the God Emperor felt that the figure he was seeing was not the real person, so he hesitated and did not speak directly.

This Taoist priest was not Liang Yu's true form, but rather his avatar, the Wuji Taoist. Liang Yu himself was currently immersed in deducing and constructing the second type of the Sixth Secret Realm, so the task of entertaining guests had to be left to the Wuji Taoist for now.

The Daoist Wuji said, "Your intuition is very sharp. Not only can you see the field technique that is perfectly integrated with the terrain of the immortal mountain, but you can also see that I am not the original body. This mortal universe is truly full of geniuses."

Although not his true form, Wuji Daoren had gradually grown his Dao Fruit and Law to a level truly comparable to that of a Red Dust Immortal. Therefore, he naturally noticed the Divine Emperor's keen perception of the surrounding environment and his own.

The God Emperor was taken aback and said, "A field?"

The Daoist Wuji said, "This is a completely new system, derived from array patterns and source techniques. It was jointly researched and developed by the Great Celestial Venerable and the Celestial Venerable Lingbao. Of course, it is not yet perfect, and only a very few Dao Prodigies with specific talents can master it." The Divine Emperor thought he was mentally prepared, but after hearing that the Great Celestial Venerable Wuji and the Celestial Venerable Lingbao could deduce a completely new cultivation system, he was still so shocked that he was speechless for a moment.

However, he quickly composed himself and said, "May I ask how to address this senior?"

Wuji Daoren said, “I am the mortal body of Wuji Jitianzun. You can call me Wuji Daoren. The Great Celestial Venerable is in a critical stage of seclusion and will probably not emerge for some time. Therefore, he sent me to receive him. Please come with me up the mountain.”

The mortal body of the Supreme Celestial Venerable Wuji?

Thanks to the fact that the Divine Emperor was a descendant of the Divine Silkworm and had undergone the Ten Transformations of the Divine Silkworm, he naturally thought of the silkworm shell he had left behind during his previous transformation.

Could this Wuji Daoist be the "shell" left behind by the Great Celestial Venerable during his transformation? The fact that an empty shell could become a real life form and evolve to this extent once again shocked the God Emperor.

Even before meeting him, he was already awestruck by the unfathomable depths of this great celestial being. What would it be like to actually meet him?
The Divine Emperor sighed slightly. Even though he had prepared himself mentally, this Great Celestial Venerable, who was said to be so powerful that only those who had exhausted all paths could glimpse his back, was still beyond imagination.

However, his primary goal was to obtain guidance from the Great Celestial Venerable Wuji so that he could perfect his Eleven Transformations of the Divine Silkworm. Therefore, the more powerful the Great Celestial Venerable was, the more important the guidance he might receive would be, and the more likely his path of cultivation would be to be much easier. Thus, the Divine Emperor couldn't help but begin to look forward to it.

Upon reaching the mountain peak, Daoist Wuji immediately began communicating with the Divine Emperor. Although Daoist Wuji had only just reached a level comparable to a Mortal Immortal and primarily cultivated the methods of field and Earth Immortals, his realm and cultivation far surpassed that of the Divine Emperor, making him more than capable of guiding his cultivation.

Besides, as Liang Yu's mortal body, he was very familiar with the transformations of Wuji Daoren in his previous lives, and he was even extremely familiar with the transformation methods of Yuanshi Tianzun, Lingbao Tianzun, and Daode Tianzun. It would indeed be no difficulty for him to give guidance to the Divine Emperor.

The Divine Emperor has now established the general framework of his Eleven Transformations. He only needs countless methods of transformation and their processes as references to greatly accelerate his complete research and development of the Eleven Transformations. Therefore, the guidance from the Daoist Wuji is already enough to benefit him greatly.

Therefore, the Divine Emperor cast aside all other distractions and focused all his energy on comprehending various methods of transformation.

Having the Daoist Wuji guide the Divine Emperor was a last resort. Liang Yu himself has been using the Qiankun Creation Tower as a vessel to construct the sixth secret realm for 60,000 years now. During this time, he has been drawing nourishment from this successful experience to construct a second type of sixth secret realm. This type of sixth secret realm, like others, does not require any vessel; it is simply the aggregation and sublimation of Dao fruits, laws, and divine power.

Now, 60,000 years later, he has achieved some success. Although he is still far from success, he has gotten on the right track.

When the Divine Emperor visited, he was completing a crucial step that required his full concentration, so he couldn't spare the time and had to let the Daoist Wuji take his place.

However, it's also good that after the Divine Emperor absorbs various transformation methods as nourishment, it will be more efficient for Liang Yu himself to guide him to further simplify and improve the eleven transformation methods.
