Shrouding the Heavens: The Ultimate Daoist Venerable

Chapter 835 Arrangement
Since the end of the mythological era, when Yuanshi Tianzun obtained the Tongtian Jianmu tree, this elixir of immortality has always been by his side. After the Underworld Lord handed over the Kunlun Sacred Realm to Yuanshi Tianzun, the Tongtian Jianmu tree has been rooted in the Kunlun Sacred Realm for over a million years.

Throughout these long years, the Jianmu Tree has consistently helped the Kunlun Sacred Realm become more expansive and solid. After all, the Jianmu Tree has always been associated with the legend of connecting heaven and earth and linking the two realms.

Therefore, it naturally possesses the ability to promote the further growth of all worlds. Furthermore, if it continues to grow in the future, it might even become a true World Tree.

Although Kunlun Sacred Realm is merely a continuously evolving wondrous place, due to its unique and self-contained penalty rules, it still possesses the potential to continuously grow into a world.

Therefore, the World Tree and the Kunlun Sacred Realm are undoubtedly a combination with great potential, and it is hoped that they will continue to grow. However, due to the characteristics of the human universe being in the Dharma-ending Age, this stage may never arrive.

Of course, if someone can become an Earth Immortal in the Kunlun Sacred Realm and reach an extremely profound realm, then it is not without hope.

Therefore, even though Yuanshi Tianzun had no knowledge of the methods of becoming an Earth Immortal, he still inadvertently mastered the method of advancing to the Earth Immortal realm.

Of course, Yuanshi Tianzun was not the only one who grasped this point.

As Liang Yu continuously catalyzed the growth of Wuji Immortal Mountain, and as Wuji Daoist used Wuji Immortal Mountain as a base to continuously deduce the methods of Earth Immortals, they subtly grasped this point.

However, since the Wudao Ancient Tea Tree is too far removed from the World Tree, it is unlikely to evolve in that direction. Moreover, the Wudao Ancient Tea Tree itself also has the idea of ​​transforming, so Liang Yu's research on it is not that in-depth, and it is difficult for him to take that step.

As for others, the Bodhi Ancient Tree of the Moral Celestial Venerable, like the Enlightenment Ancient Tea Tree, is unlikely to follow such an evolutionary path; the Xuanwu Immortal Medicine in Yuhua Divine Island, the White Tiger Immortal Medicine in Kunlun Immortal Mountain, and the Seven-Colored Gourd Immortal Vine in the Primordial Ancient Mine do not have such conditions, and there is not even an Immortal Medicine in the Underworld.

The ginseng fruit tree of the Celestial Venerable of Immortality might not be out of the question, but since this elixir of immortality leans more towards human transformation, it would be difficult for him to succeed. After all, it would be extremely difficult for the body left behind after the ginseng fruit tree's transformation to evolve into the World Tree.

Therefore, among all the Earth Immortals, perhaps only the Sun Saint Emperor has the hope of taking this step with the help of Mount Tai and the Fusang Divine Tree.

After all, long ago some people believed that the Sun Tree had transformed into the World Tree. Even if this Fusang Tree is not that tree, they are similar and could become the World Tree.

In other words, if the Sun Emperor could evolve Mount Tai to the point where it could become a great world, then Fusang, which grew and evolved alongside it, might very well become a true World Tree.

However, the Sun Emperor did not seem to have any intention of continuing down the path of the Earth Immortal. At most, he might transform Mount Tai into his sixth secret realm. Therefore, it is likely that he will find it difficult to continue down this path, which is quite a pity.

Aside from the immortality elixirs held by the various earth immortals, there are actually two other trees that have the potential to evolve into the World Tree: the Laurel Tree and the Ancient Tree of Life.

The Laurel Tree and the Fusang Tree have always had a strong correspondence and are very similar, except that one is the ultimate of the Yin Law and the other is the ultimate of the Yang Law.

Because of this highly corresponding relationship, if the Fusang Divine Tree can evolve into the World Tree, then the Laurel Divine Tree may also be able to do so, at least its feasibility is far greater than other elixirs of immortality.

However, this tree is in the hands of the Taiyin Human Emperor, and he probably won't follow the path of Earth Immortal. The Ancient Tree of Life is the ultimate manifestation of the laws of life, so its possibility as a World Tree is naturally not low, but its possibility of transforming into life is equally not low. This elixir of immortality has not yet been mastered by anyone else, so naturally, it is not possible for it to reach that stage yet.

Of course, if the human universe can one day be restored to a large world, then there is still hope that they can evolve to that stage.

Regardless, the Kunlun Sacred Realm has continuously evolved because of this divine tree, which in turn has enabled the Jianmu tree to grow as well, thus creating a subtle relationship of mutual promotion.

For this reason, the fruit of this Jianmu tree contains extremely pure and mysterious laws of the Kunlun Sacred Realm.

Living a second life with this immortality elixir fruit would undoubtedly be a great boost to the emperor, allowing him to further grasp and comprehend the mysteries of the Kunlun Immortal Scripture, greatly shortening the time and difficulty for him to complete his transformation using this method.

Therefore, after consuming the immortality elixir, the emperor involuntarily activated the Kunlun Immortal Scripture, using it as a medium to almost merge himself with the Kunlun Sacred Realm. Countless primordial forces from the Kunlun Sacred Realm then surged and poured into his body, thus aiding his transformation.

During this process, the emperor made certain adjustments to himself, achieving a higher degree of compatibility with the Kunlun Sacred Realm and making the Kunlun Sacred Realm laws inherent in his origin more complete, thus making his second life significantly better than his first.

As a being far more powerful than ordinary Dao-proving beings, the Emperor, though still far inferior to the Primordial Celestial Venerable, could see that in its current state, the Tongtian Jianmu tree could not produce such terrifyingly potent fruits.

Clearly, this was still the work of Yuanshi Tianzun. He deliberately used his great supernatural powers to manipulate the Tongtian Jianmu and the Kunlun Sacred Realm, thus condensing this extraordinary fruit, allowing the emperor to advance further.

In the past, the Primordial Emperor used his connection with the Primordial Ancient Mine and the Seven-Colored Gourd Immortal Vine to condense an extremely powerful Seven-Colored Gourd. As a result, even though the Primordial Holy Emperor only used the Elixir of Immortality to live a second life, he still gained a huge boost.

Although Yuanshi Tianzun was not an earth immortal and his connection with Kunlun Sacred Realm and Jianmu was not very deep, his realm was too high, so he could naturally do such a thing.

This small transformation driven by external forces is actually a rehearsal for the real transformation process. With this experience, when the emperor finally initiates his own transformation, he will be more adept and will face fewer risks.

Upon hearing this, the emperor couldn't help but realize that his master was indeed far-sighted and incredibly powerful; at least, he himself was completely incapable of accomplishing such a feat.

Although the current emperor no longer needs the care of the Primordial Celestial Venerable and can forge his own path, such assistance can undoubtedly make his growth smoother.

The Emperor was naturally deeply grateful for this and subsequently began to cultivate even more diligently. He would truly be uneasy if he could not reach the point where he could help the Primordial Celestial Venerable in the future.

And so, the human universe fell silent once again.
