Shrouding the Heavens: The Ultimate Daoist Venerable

Chapter 447 Visiting the Boundless Immortal Mountain

Following the coordinates left by Lingbao Tianzun, Xuanwu Emperor traversed the endless starry sky and arrived near Ziwei Star.

This Wuji Immortal Mountain is most likely a wondrous place, but its whereabouts are elusive. If it weren't for the coordinates of the Spirit Treasure Celestial Venerable, he wouldn't have been able to sense or find it, let alone enter it.

Emperor Xuanwu glanced at Ziwei Star, and was immediately shocked.

Ziwei Star is one of the most outstanding ancient life-bearing stars in the universe. Among the cultivators born on this ancient star, the most famous one is the representative figure of the mythological era, known as the Great Celestial Venerable Wuji.

In terms of influence, even his master, Lingbao Tianzun, was slightly inferior.

The first place that his master, Lingbao Tianzun, pointed out to him was named Wuji Immortal Mountain.

Could this be a coincidence?

Legend has it that the celestial gate was constructed by Wuji Tianzun, Lingbao Tianzun, Daode Tianzun, and Yuanshi Tianzun.

Now that Master Lingbao Tianzun is still alive and has never left the human universe, it is likely that this Wuji Tianzun has not left the human world either, but has embarked on the same path of immortality in the mortal world as Master Lingbao Tianzun.

After all, this path is the most difficult and the one with the highest potential. If even the Supreme Celestial Venerable Wuji couldn't succeed on this path, then probably no one in the world could.

Emperor Xuanwu calmed his mind and then used the coordinates left by Lingbao Tianzun to locate the immortal mountain that was floating in the void and completely undetectable.

Having entered and exited Jade Flower Divine Island several times, Emperor Xuanwu was naturally not surprised by the World Barrier. However, the field technique integrated with the World Barrier did pique his curiosity.

Although the formations constructed using these field techniques are slightly different from those of Master Lingbao Tianzun, it is clear that they share the same origin.

However, considering that his master, Lingbao Tianzun, had collaborated with Wuji Tianzun, he quickly realized that this Domain Technique was most likely a supreme secret technique jointly deduced by the two of them.

Randomly, Emperor Xuanwu touched a part of the field on the world barrier and said, "Junior Xuanwu has come to pay respects to the Great Heavenly Venerable on the orders of his master, Lingbao Tianzun."

Upon hearing this, the field shimmering with celestial light immediately fell silent, creating a portal that opened up the barrier between worlds.

Emperor Xuanwu was secretly alarmed. He had only touched the slightest bit of the field, yet the power it triggered made him feel a fatal threat. This level was truly unimaginable, and even this emperor who had lived three lives was instantly devoid of any pride, leaving him only able to look up in awe.

He respectfully entered the Wuji Immortal Mountain, and immediately a special spiritual energy of heaven and earth, mixed with faint longevity substances and whose essence was close to immortal energy, rushed towards him, making him feel comfortable and intoxicated.

However, since this trip was for important business, Emperor Xuanwu quickly calmed his mind and followed the guidance of the energy towards the mountain peak.

The deeper Emperor Xuanwu ventured into the Boundless Immortal Mountain, the more he felt as if he had entered a paradise on earth. Overwhelmed with awe, he couldn't help but indulge in daydreams.

If he becomes an Earth Immortal, could Jade Flower Divine Island one day evolve into such a world?
Although under the transformation of Lingbao Tianzun, Yuhua Divine Island has far surpassed ordinary wondrous places, it still lags behind Wuji Immortal Mountain to some extent.

As his thoughts wandered and he imagined the future, he saw someone. Although it was the first time he had seen him, Emperor Xuanwu was absolutely certain that this was the Supreme Heavenly Venerable Wuji.

Firstly, Emperor Xuanwu had seen a portrait of the Supreme Heavenly Venerable Wuji, and secondly, the aura emanating from Liang Yu, which resembled the origin of the Great Dao and was completely transcendent, indicated that there could be no one else like him.

He immediately cupped his hands and said, "Greetings, Great Heavenly Venerable."

Liang Yu said, "I already know why Fellow Daoist Lingbao sent you here. Please sit down." Upon hearing this, Emperor Xuanwu immediately sat down opposite Liang Yu, though his limbs were still somewhat stiff.

Liang Yu said, "I have some knowledge of the methods of becoming an Earth Immortal, but that mainly applies to the state after you have achieved great success. You have not yet embarked on the path of becoming an Earth Immortal, so it is too early for you to get involved in these things."

"So, Fellow Daoist Lingbao actually hopes that I will pass these things on to you, and then let you use them to communicate with the other two fellow Daoists."

"But this is just right. I was thinking of having a chat with those two fellow Daoists when I had some free time. Now that you've done it for me, it saves me a lot of trouble. Fellow Daoist Lingbao really understands me."

The three coordinates given to Emperor Xuanwu by the Celestial Venerable Lingbao naturally refer to the Underworld and the Immortal Mausoleum as the other two. After all, since it involves Earth Immortals, there are currently no other options besides these two.

Since his seventh incarnation, Liang Yu combined himself with the human universe by borrowing some of the secrets of the Earth Immortals to achieve an alternative form of immortality, he has gradually gained a deeper understanding of the methods of the Earth Immortals.

Now that the Xuanwu Emperor has come to visit, he can pass on these insights to him, and indirectly let the Underworld Emperor and the Eternal Heavenly Venerable know these insights, thereby promoting their growth.

Emperor Xuanwu could also learn a more complete method of becoming an Earth Immortal from the Celestial Venerable of Immortality and the Emperor of the Underworld.

So Liang Yu pointed a finger at Xuanwu Emperor's brow, leaving his new insights into the methods of the Earth Immortal in Xuanwu Emperor's mind.

Furthermore, Liang Yu also passed on some special techniques and secrets of researching the elixir of immortality to Emperor Xuanwu, which can be considered a gift upon meeting him.

Although Emperor Xuanwu has decided to embark on the path of Earth Immortal, researching the elixir of immortality to create a perfect Dao body for himself is also a form of cultivation that will greatly benefit him.

Moreover, Lingbao Tianzun will naturally teach Xuanwu Emperor other aspects of cultivation, so there is no need for him to overstep his bounds.

The only area where Lingbao Tianzun's research on the elixir of immortality was not as in-depth as theirs, and he had never used the secrets of the elixir to reverse his own life. Therefore, this could be considered Lingbao Tianzun's weakness.

His guidance in this regard is indeed the most suitable.

After feeling the surging energy in his brain, Emperor Xuanwu took some time to digest it.

As for the Earth Immortals, Emperor Xuanwu, who had not yet conducted in-depth research on this subject, found it even more elusive. However, researching the elixir of immortality was of great significance to him.

The fact that he is so close to the Xuanwu Immortal Elixir is enough to prove that he has a connection with Xuanwu. If he can truly integrate the mysteries of the immortal Xuanwu when he becomes an Earth Immortal and reshapes his body, the result will surely be extraordinary.

Having finished digesting the information, Emperor Xuanwu said, "Thank you for your guidance, Great Heavenly Venerable."

Liang Yu said, “There’s no need for that. You are a disciple of Fellow Daoist Lingbao, so you can be considered my junior disciple. This is a trivial matter. The last two stops that Fellow Daoist Lingbao pointed out for you are the real places to comprehend the Earth Immortal Techniques.”

"Go ahead, and remember to give them my regards."

Having achieved his goal, Emperor Xuanwu rose and said, "Then, Great Celestial Venerable, I shall take my leave."

Having said that, he returned to the human world along the same path. Upon returning to the human world, he looked back, but without the coordinate marks, he could no longer find the strange place he had just left.
