Shrouding the Heavens: The Ultimate Daoist Venerable

Chapter 649 Yin and Yang United
The Corpse Emperor has lived for three lifetimes, spanning 40,000 years, yet he has not departed. Although various fortuitous events have granted him far more opportunities than any other Dao-proving cultivator, achieving this truly makes him an extraordinary and unique figure among all the emperors throughout history.

The Taiyin Human Emperor, who had seen the Corpse King once when he had just attained enlightenment, was naturally somewhat surprised by this. After all, judging from the Corpse King's performance that day, it should have been very difficult for him to do this.

However, there are always people more powerful than oneself, and no matter how the Corpse Emperor achieved this, it demonstrates that he is a special ruler, not as ordinary as he had seen that day. Therefore, the Taiyin Emperor couldn't help but secretly raise his evaluation of this Corpse Emperor.

However, now, the Taiyin Emperor no longer has time to deal with the Corpse Emperor, because his fifth incarnation has also come to an end.

The fourth incarnation of the Taiyin Human Emperor evolved his Taiyin body through the principle of Yin and Yang harmony, thus successfully transforming and gaining a lifespan of 40,000 years.

His fifth incarnation was achieved using a specially modified version of the Nine-Turn Immortal Pill, so theoretically his lifespan should also be 40,000 years, without much increase.

But now, the current Taiyin Emperor lived to be 50,000 years old before reaching the end of his lifespan.

The fact that the Taiyin Emperor could significantly extend his lifespan without reversing his lifespan is naturally due to another major breakthrough.

In the first ten thousand years of this fifth life, the Taiyin Emperor took a further step on the basis of the yin-yang harmony achieved in the previous life. Although he still failed to achieve the unity of yin and yang and generate chaos, he derived the mystery of lesser yin and lesser yang from the two laws of yin and yang, which made his yin-yang harmony reach a true state of perfection.

Although this progress was not enough to support the Taiyin Emperor to live a reverse life, it still made the Taiyin Emperor more powerful, and even his lifespan increased significantly. Therefore, the Taiyin Emperor was able to live for 50,000 years in his fifth life.

However, this change between Lesser Yin and Lesser Yang is actually part of the Yin-Yang Two Forms Dao that the Supreme Heavenly Venerable Wuji evolved back then, which is the so-called Two Forms giving rise to Four Symbols. This means that the Supreme Heavenly Venerable Wuji once mastered this change.

However, this also shows that after reaching this point, the Taiyin Emperor's achievements in the Yin-Yang Dao finally caught up with the Wuji Heavenly Venerable of the time when he created and perfected the Two Elements Dao Scripture.

The Taiyin Emperor had always taken the Taiyin Law as his core principle and gradually reached this point by achieving the balance of Yin and Yang. However, he only reached this point now, which made the Taiyin Emperor's admiration for the Wuji Heavenly Venerable even stronger.

Of course, the efficiency of the Taiyin Emperor was not that high, partly because he was distracted by cultivating the two Chaos Immortal Scriptures and comprehending the laws of chaos, in order to shorten the time it took to transform into a chaotic body.

At this point, the Taiyin Emperor had, through the transformations of Lesser Yin and Lesser Yang, truly perfected his Yin-Yang synergy, which he had cultivated over many years. Therefore, generating the laws of chaos was far easier for him than before. Under these circumstances, the Taiyin Emperor's comprehension of the unity of Yin and Yang deepened and accelerated.

Moreover, since his fourth incarnation, the Taiyin Human Emperor has been comprehending the two Chaos Immortal Scriptures from the Wuji Heavenly Venerable and the Yuanshi Heavenly Venerable, and has successfully cultivated the Chaos Laws.

The unity of Yin and Yang can give rise to the laws of chaos. Directly comprehending the two Chaos Immortal Scriptures can not only promote the growth of the laws of chaos derived from the unity of Yin and Yang, but also verify the progress of the unity of Yin and Yang through the laws of chaos cultivated in this way, making the process of the unity of Yin and Yang faster and more correct.

With these two approaches working in tandem, the Taiyin Human Emperor finally succeeded in developing a basic outline of the Chaos Laws during the remaining 40,000 years of his fifth incarnation.

Although the Taiyin Human Emperor had not yet reached the Great Perfection of the Chaos Laws like the Wuji Heavenly Venerable and the Yuanshi Heavenly Venerable, and was even significantly inferior to their achievements in the Chaos Laws when they transformed into Chaos Bodies, it was still sufficient for him to transform himself into a Chaos Body. After all, before transforming into Chaos Bodies, the Wuji Heavenly Venerable and the Yuanshi Heavenly Venerable had specifically adopted various methods to perfect their own Chaos Laws as much as possible, reaching a higher level, thus transforming into the most perfect Chaos Bodies.

Therefore, the requirements for transforming into a Chaos Body are not actually that terrifying; one doesn't necessarily need to comprehend the Laws of Chaos to the extent they did. The Laws of Chaos they mastered during their transformation had already far exceeded the minimum requirements for transforming into a Chaos Body.

Therefore, the current achievements of the Taiyin Emperor are sufficient to support his true transformation into a chaotic body.

As he continued to improve, the Taiyin Divine Seal he later refined also evolved into the Yin-Yang Divine Seal, incorporating his Yin-Yang philosophy and even faintly exuding chaotic energy.

If this divine seal hadn't been forged later, instead of starting from scratch alongside Taiyin, and then being used as a new natal magic weapon, it would have already become a celestial artifact.

Even so, this divine seal is only a hair's breadth away from becoming a celestial artifact. As long as the Taiyin Human Emperor uses some special methods to refine it, it may be possible to cross that line and evolve it into a celestial artifact.

However, in order to make this divine seal truly become the natal magic weapon most closely connected to him, the Taiyin Emperor deliberately did not use any means to accelerate it, so as to let it evolve naturally with him, thereby completely erasing that slight barrier.

The Taiyin Emperor, who was preparing to begin his cultivation, used the old method, taking the Emperor Seal as the core and calling upon the power of Mount Tai's origin to form a great array, only more complete and more powerful than before.

After that, he set up a new great formation inside the main formation, using his Yin-Yang Divine Seal as the core, connecting the two formations into one, making it even more solid and impenetrable.

Subsequently, the Taiyin Human Emperor activated the great formation and allowed it to operate naturally, suppressing himself as much as possible to prevent problems during the transformation. Only then did he begin to prepare for the transformation.

Now that Yuanshi Tianzun has been resurrected, given his power, Taiyin Renhuang doesn't actually need to be so cautious. If anything unexpected were to happen, Yuanshi Tianzun could completely suppress everything before it caused any damage.

But the Taiyin Emperor did not want to rely on others to solve his problems. To advance on the path of immortality in the mortal world and go further in the future, he could only rely on himself. As the Emperor, he had his own pride.

Under his meticulous planning, unless his transformation fails and all his power goes berserk, the methods he left behind are enough to suppress any potential problems.

The Taiyin Emperor took a deep breath and began to push his Dao Fruit of Yin-Yang Harmony toward the ultimate state of Yin-Yang Unity and Chaos. As the laws of chaos continued to evolve, traces of life essence began to emerge from the depths of the Taiyin Emperor's origin and gradually gathered, seemingly to condense into a Chaos Divine Embryo.

After the fusion of Yin and Yang was basically completed, the Taiyin Emperor fell into a deep sleep, allowing the chaotic laws he derived to naturally transform himself, moving towards the final transformation into a new chaotic body.

Clearly, the transformation of the Taiyin Human Emperor might be a long process and could not be accomplished overnight. Thus, amidst the pervasive chaotic energy, the Taiyin Human Emperor fell into silence.
