Shrouding the Heavens: The Ultimate Daoist Venerable

Chapter 268 Fifth-Order Earth Immortal, Immortal Body of Longevity

Regardless, Liang Yu had finally become a Chaotic Body and lived his fifth life. After becoming a Chaotic Body, Liang Yu finally experienced the extraordinary nature of this physique.

It can be said that in the entire universe of Shrouding the Heavens, any top-tier physique and bloodline must be compared to the Chaos Body. Some can only be rated slightly worse, such as the Supreme Divine Blood that Liang Yu once evolved and the Kunlun Immortal Body that the Cloud God is about to evolve.

Some can achieve a rating no less than that of a Chaos Body, such as the Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo, Immortal Spirit, Immortal Metal Spiritual Being, Immortal Artifact Transformation, Immortal Elixir Transformation, and so on.

However, in the human universe, no bloodline or physique can be rated as superior to the Chaos Physique. Unless it's a physique unique to Ye Fan's sixth incarnation, the Holy Physique, or his eighth incarnation, the Mortal Physique, which is entirely personal and impossible to replicate, other physiques can only serve as challengers and are fundamentally unable to change his status.

Although the two naturally born chaotic bodies in the human universe, namely Wang Bo and Ye Xian, performed only so-so and seemed to be completely outclassed by the innate sacred body Dao embryo, their title as the number one physique is still unshakable.

After all, no matter how strong your physique is, it still depends on your talent and how well you are compatible with it. Wang Bo clearly did not reach the upper limit of the Chaos Body.

The key to the Chaos Body's dominance as the strongest physique lies in its ability to disregard the Heavenly Heart Mark and achieve Dao formation. After all, none of the other physiques comparable to the Chaos Body, including the Innate Sacred Body and Dao Embryo, possess this ability. The only other being to achieve this is Yu Feng, born from the Immortal Artifact, the Cauldron of All Things. The universe shows extreme favoritism towards this physique; compared to the Chaos Body, the Holy Spirit, blessed by heaven and earth, seems like an unwanted stepchild.

Of course, this is related to the chaotic laws contained within the chaotic body. With the chaotic laws present, the chaotic body cannot be restrained, and can even restrain everyone else. Once this primordial law is revealed, even the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth must give way, unable to suppress its attainment of Dao. It is precisely because of the true meaning of the chaotic laws that the chaotic body can exhibit the power to contain everything, evolve everything, and destroy everything.

Therefore, the value of the Chaos Body is self-evident.

However, Liang Yu was also surprised to find that his Source Technique had undergone an upgrade. After becoming a Chaos Body, he was able to better grasp the primordial power of the universe and its Great Dao Laws, so it became much easier for him to mobilize the power of the universe's primordial source using his Source Technique.

Even when using Origin Techniques, Liang Yu almost felt a wondrous sense of divine intervention, as if the heavens and earth were converging upon him. This was indeed an unexpected delight, after all, who would have thought that the Chaos Body could amplify Origin Techniques? It can only be said that the value of the First Physique is beyond question.

After familiarizing himself with his condition, Liang Yu got up and walked around. He had left the Amethyst Palace in the forbidden zone of life in the mountains as one of his residences. Unexpectedly, during this transformation, the palace was also transformed by chaotic energy and chaotic laws, becoming even more solid.

After strolling around the Wuji Immortal Mountain, Liang Yu naturally grasped the changes within it. He tentatively infused the scriptures for the evolution of the immortal realm obtained from the Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin into the origin of the Wuji Immortal Mountain, discovering that the mountain would evolve even more rapidly as a result, and its progress in forming an independent realm even accelerated.

Could it be that Qidi could evolve further into an independent world? If so, wouldn't Liang Yu also be able to use various means to create a small immortal realm in the mortal realm? After all, although he is very busy, he still has some time.

However, not all wondrous lands are like the Boundless Immortal Mountain, gradually forming independent realms that can further evolve into immortal domains. Most wondrous lands remain unclosed, self-contained yet still connected to the outside world. These wondrous lands naturally cannot be used to evolve immortal domains. But Liang Yu didn't stop there; he still needed to consult with authoritative figures, namely the Longevity Celestial Venerable and the Underworld Emperor, who had now cultivated to Earth Immortal status.

After all, the two of them knew more about the changes and upgrades of Qidi than Liang Yu did now.

Upon leaving Wuji Immortal Mountain, Liang Yu could already sense the crumbling Heavenly Heart Mark and the aura of the Great Dao. Clearly, the Primordial Heavenly Venerable had reached his final stage and was about to pass away.

Although Liang Yu said he would see him off, Yuanshi Tianzun could still hold on for a few more months or even a few years, so he naturally did not go to Kunlun Sacred Realm immediately, but came to the side of the Immortal Tomb.

To Liang Yu's surprise, he saw the Eternal Celestial Venerable's human form again. This human form was naturally not the temporary clone that the Eternal Celestial Venerable himself had created using the immortal energy, laws, and Dao traces within the Immortal Tomb, but a true human form. Moreover, it was not an ordinary human form, but a Dao body truly derived from the combination of the Immortal Tomb's laws and his own Dao fruit, the most suitable for him. Perhaps this state could be called the Eternal Immortal Body.

In other words, the Celestial Venerable of Longevity has reached the fifth stage of Earthly Immortal. He has once again broken free from the Immortal Tomb, transcending it and becoming its master. Although the foundation of his human body remains in the Immortal Tomb and cannot be separated, he can now manipulate it at will and even leave it to move freely in the greater universe.

Of course, he still cannot leave the mortal realm, and he will become increasingly weaker after moving away from the Immortal Mausoleum, but he has greatly expanded his range of activities and his movements are not so restricted.

As Liang Yu and others had largely predicted, the current Celestial Venerable of Longevity now possesses the combat power of a Heavenly Emperor. However, he still doesn't have the same effortless control as a true Heavenly Emperor.

Upon seeing Liang Yu, the Celestial Venerable of Longevity was naturally overjoyed. However, in his eyes, Liang Yu was now even more terrifying. Although he did not show any aura, wherever he went, all time and space and the Great Dao seemed to lose their meaning, and were stirred into chaos, as if he were about to destroy the world and create a new one.

Looking at Liang Yu, who was now not only much stronger but had also fully regained his youth, the Celestial Venerable of Longevity naturally knew that the other party had already lived for five lifetimes. With such vigorous blood and terrifying aura, Liang Yu's lifespan would probably continue to increase in this lifetime.

You have to understand that Liang Yu lived for a full 60,000 years in his previous life, and he is still growing now, which is simply defying the heavens.

Liang Yu said, "Fellow Daoist Changsheng has actually stepped into the fifth stage of Earth Immortal, reunited his true self, and completed the path to Earth Immortal."

Liang Yu had once speculated that the biggest problem for Earth Immortals was that they could be affected by strange phenomena, losing their human nature. Now that he had emerged from the fifth stage and re-formed his physical body, the Longevity Celestial Venerable naturally no longer needed to fear this. It could be said that the Longevity Celestial Venerable was indeed free of risk at this point, and all he needed to do next was continue cultivating.
