Shrouding the Heavens: The Ultimate Daoist Venerable

Chapter 922 Morality Emerges
After Zhang Bairen and Dao Huang continued their cultivation, Mount Daluo began to fluctuate with their auras, sometimes merging with Dao Huang's aura and other times with Zhang Bairen's, as if breathing in and out, which was quite miraculous.

In this resonance, their cultivation speed was significantly boosted, as if this wondrous place might evolve to the next level.

After all, the Great Luo Immortal Mountain also benefited greatly from the process of the three Immortal Kings giving back to it, and under the influence and guidance of the two Dao Prodigies who had cultivated the Great Luo Immortal Scripture, this benefit became even more obvious.

In this peaceful and tranquil setting, time began to fly by again, and eight thousand years passed in the blink of an eye.

At that moment, an inexplicable aura began to surge, causing the entire human universe to tremble, as if an ancient god with the power to create the world was reviving, bringing a catastrophe of annihilation to the human universe.

But in an instant, this aura became ethereal and elusive, yet utterly pure and genuine, as if it were the source of all things, the foundation of existence, and created a strange harmony between itself and the human universe.

However, unexpectedly, only three cultivators were able to detect this aura throughout the entire process: Liang Yu, Yuanshi Tianzun, and Lingbao Tianzun, the three Immortal Kings.

As for the others, whether it was the contemporary emperor Jade Emperor Zhang Bairen, or the reclusive emperors such as Dao Emperor, Sui Emperor, Taichu Saint Emperor, and Emperor, or even the supreme beings from strange worlds, or the earth immortals who were most closely connected with the human universe, none of them felt anything unusual.

Clearly, this power has far exceeded the scope of the human universe and reached a more terrifying level.

The source of this aura is naturally the Moral Celestial Venerable, who has finally taken the last step and is about to become a Celestial King. At this stage, he is the only one in the human universe who has the ability to become a Celestial King.

Upon sensing this aura, Liang Yu couldn't help but end his seclusion and look towards Mount Daluo, as did Yuanshi Tianzun and Lingbao Tianzun.

The fact that Daoist Venerable Morality, who had fought alongside them and progressed together for many years, was finally about to join their level was naturally a great thing, enough to make them all feel immense joy.

However, the three of them did not immediately set off for Mount Daluo. After all, although the Celestial Venerable of Morality had completed his accumulation, he still needed to overcome the Great Tribulation of the Celestial King before he could truly become a Celestial King.

To overcome the Great Tribulation of the Immortal King, the Celestial Venerable of Morality needs to travel beyond the human universe to complete the task.

As the earliest enlightened being among them, the Celestial Venerable of Morality should also have great curiosity about the Immortal Realm, so it is very likely that he would also go to the Immortal Realm.

It would probably take the Celestial Venerable of Morality some time for this back and forth, so Liang Yu and the other two chose to wait until he had achieved his goal before discussing the Dao with him.

Within the Great Luo Immortal Mountain, although they were very close, neither Dao Huang nor Zhang Bairen sensed any unusual aura. However, due to their close relationship with the Moral Celestial Venerable, they both felt a strange sensation and suddenly had a sudden impulse.

Therefore, Dao Huang and Zhang Bairen temporarily suspended their cultivation and gathered together.

Zhang Bairen said, "Uncle Daohuang, you've sensed something amiss too?"

The Emperor smiled and nodded, saying, "Yes, there's probably only one possibility that could make us sense that something big is happening."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Bairen was overjoyed and exclaimed, "Is Master about to emerge from seclusion?"

Dao Huang said, "That should be it. Senior Brother Dao is about to take this step and become a legendary Immortal King."

Just as they were filled with anticipation, a figure appeared silently and said to them, "Junior brother, disciple, I've kept you waiting."

"Brother Morality, did you succeed?"

"Greetings, Master!" Upon seeing this familiar yet unfamiliar figure, Dao Huang and Zhang Bairen couldn't help but greet him.

To the Dao Emperor, the Celestial Venerable of Morality seemed no different from before, except that his aura was more ethereal and unpredictable, yet he also seemed to have completely returned to ordinariness and nature. He could no longer detect any aura of the Celestial Venerable of Morality. Even though the other party was standing right in front of him, he could not sense the presence of the Celestial Venerable of Morality through any means other than his eyes.

It should be noted that the Dao Emperor and the Moral Celestial Venerable have a close connection. Even though the Moral Celestial Venerable was far stronger than him before, he could still sense something from this connection.

But now, the performance of the Celestial Venerable of Morality has completely exceeded the Dao Emperor's imagination. He has obviously become even more powerful, at least beyond what the current Dao Emperor can imagine.

Such strength should naturally be at the legendary Immortal King realm.

As for Zhang Bairen, the Dao De Tianzun he had seen before always appeared as the predecessor of the Dao Emperor, that is, the Bodhi Divine Embryo, and he rarely saw his native form.

Therefore, he was not very familiar with the original form of the Moral Celestial, let alone the Moral Celestial who had become even more powerful.

However, Zhang Bairen could still tell from the aura of the Moral Celestial Venerable that this was his master.

In theory, the two of them should not have been able to sense the emergence of the Celestial Venerable of Morality. The reason they had this feeling was actually due to the Celestial Venerable of Morality's intention.

The Celestial Venerable said, "Junior brother, you have worked hard all these years."

Dao Huang said, "Senior brother, you flatter me. This is just my duty."

The Celestial Venerable said, "Judging from your current state, you should be close to completing this lifetime's cultivation and moving on to the next stage, right?"

Dao Huang said, "Senior Brother, your insight is indeed remarkable. I just wonder if you can foresee my future, whether I can become a mortal immortal?"

The Supreme Lord of Morality said, "Who can predict the future? Just stay true to yourself and keep moving forward."

Dao Huang said, "Yes, cultivation is ultimately a personal matter. Senior brother, I have learned a lot."

The Celestial Venerable of Morality continued, “My disciple, you have already lived through three lifetimes. I, as your master, have been somewhat negligent.”

Zhang Bairen said, "When I first arrived at this sacred mountain, Master, you had already completed your teachings to me. Moreover, without your various methods, Master, I'm afraid I would have had a hard time getting to where I am today."

The Supreme Lord of Morality said, "It is your own talent to be able to turn the methods I left behind into your own advantage."

"Judging from your appearance, you seem to be planning to continue down the path of the Chaotic Ancient Method?"

Zhang Bairen said, "Yes, Master, although this Chaotic Ancient Technique is incomplete, it is extremely suitable for me. I will continue to improve this technique and forge my own path."

The Celestial Venerable of Morality nodded and said, "Good. Perfecting an extremely incomplete system is also a broad road to becoming a Celestial King or even a higher realm. Now that you have a goal, I am relieved."
