Shrouding the Heavens: The Ultimate Daoist Venerable

Chapter 681 The Body of the Sun
The Yin Body is similar to the Yang Body; both are considered top-tier physiques below the level of the Chaos Body.

The most outstanding physiques at this level are the Undying Golden Body and the Heavenly Tyrant Body, followed by the Yin Body and the Sun Body. They all share a common characteristic: while powerful, they possess significant weaknesses.

The Undying Golden Body and the Heavenly Tyrant Body are almost impossible to attain enlightenment, as their broken paths are like insurmountable chasms; the Taiyin Body, due to the yin power in its origin, will not live past twenty years old unless it consumes a divine treasure of the level of immortality elixir or earth-life fruit.

While the Sun Body does not have the same lifespan limitation as the Moon Body (which cannot live past twenty), all Sun Bodies throughout history have died prematurely for various reasons, and none have ever reached adulthood.

However, perhaps because of these flaws, all four types of constitutions are extremely extraordinary and become terrifying once they grow up.

The Yin Emperor had never seen the body of the sun before, and now that he had seen it with his own eyes, he was immediately impressed.

Compared to the Taiyin Body of the Taiyin Emperor, the appearance of the Taiyang Body is obviously more extraordinary. Even before the Taiyin Emperor began his cultivation and gradually activated his Taiyin Body, there were no particularly outward signs of unusual phenomena.

Although the Sun Body has not been fully activated, there is already a faint divine sun formed by the convergence of brilliant divine light within his body, making every inch of his body radiate a faint divine light, and even giving him an inexplicable sense of majesty.

The divine sun continuously radiated light, cleansing his body and making the child's physique stronger and stronger.

Even though the Taiyin Emperor was no longer of the Taiyin body, he still felt a strange connection.

However, there is a very coincidental thing: this prodigy with the Sun Physique is currently in the Spirit Observation Holy Land. In that case, perhaps they will all come from the same lineage in the future.

But after a brief calculation, the Taiyin Emperor frowned slightly and sighed softly.

This child, who possessed the body of the sun, was named Tai'an and was only ten years old at the time. His parents were both monks from the sacred Lingguan site.

Six or seven years ago, they all joined the army jointly organized by powerful forces such as the Holy Land of Spiritual Observation, and went to the battlefield between the human race and other ancient races, and have been missing ever since.

Just a few months ago, he received devastating news. His parents, who had eagerly joined the Allied Forces and wanted to contribute their strength to the peace and prosperity of humanity, had sacrificed themselves on the battlefield and could not even return home.

Therefore, Tai'an was immersed in grief and hatred at this time. But this blow obviously did not defeat him; instead, it made him work even harder in his cultivation.

After a brief deduction, the Taiyin Emperor understood the cause and effect, and couldn't help but recall his past experiences, feeling a touch of sadness.

That night, Tai'an climbed onto the roof and quietly watched the moon in the dawn. Unconsciously, he recalled the events of several years ago.

He suddenly realized that his memories of his parents were beginning to fade. Even though he was born with the body of the sun, possessing divine energy and unparalleled talent, he was still just a three-year-old child at the time.

Tai'an sighed and prepared to go back to sleep.

But just then, he suddenly noticed that the moon in the sky was beginning to fall, getting closer and closer to him.

What's going on? With the Ziwei Star Guardian Array in place, even if the moon from Ziwei Star really fell, it shouldn't be able to enter the interior of Ziwei Star. And even if the Ziwei Star Guardian Array is gone, the Lingguan Sacred Land Guardian Array should still be able to block everything from the outside, preventing it from entering.

Faced with this apocalyptic scene, Tai'an was filled with countless thoughts. But for some reason, Tai'an did not feel any crisis; instead, he felt a strange sense of warmth. Soon, the bright full moon drew ever closer, obscuring most of the sky above him. At that moment, a deity bathed in moonlight appeared within the full moon and pointed at him.

In a daze, he seemed to see a divine tree shimmering with golden light being implanted into his body.

Tai'an immediately jolted awake and opened his eyes. He looked around and realized that he had fallen asleep on the roof.

He looked up at the sky and found that the full moon was still hanging high in the sky, and had not set at all.

Was everything just a dream? Tai'an breathed a slight sigh of relief, but for some reason, he felt that the scene before was incredibly real, and it was hard to believe that it was just a dream.

However, after regaining his senses, Tai'an realized that his body seemed to have changed.

His parents had long noticed that his physical constitution was somewhat unusual. After the Taiyin Human Emperor attained enlightenment, the human race's research into the Taiyin Body and the similar Taiyang Body increased significantly. Therefore, even though Tai'an's constitution had not fully recovered, it was still recognized.

Although the Sun Body does not require divine treasures such as the elixir of immortality to overcome death tribulations, it seems to be cursed to always perish prematurely for some inexplicable reason.

Therefore, one of the main reasons his parents went to the human battlefield was that they hoped to place their child inside the Spirit View Holy Land, so that the Spirit View Holy Land's protective array could protect him closely and avoid any unexpected factors that might cause his premature death.

The leadership of the Lingguan Holy Land was also pleased with this outcome. The appearance of the Taiyin Emperor raised the overall evaluation of the Taiyin Body by several levels, as did the corresponding Taiyang Body.

Being able to attempt to cultivate a solar body is naturally a very meaningful endeavor.

This is why Tai'an hasn't encountered any danger over the years. And just in case, he hasn't even really focused on cultivation. After all, going into qi deviation during cultivation is an unforeseen circumstance.

However, since the death of his parents, Tai'an stopped waiting and officially began his cultivation, gradually activating his solar body in the process.

However, he had only just begun to explore the Sea of ​​Bitterness, so although his solar body had been revealed, it was not very active.

However, at this moment, Tai'an, who had just awakened, unexpectedly discovered that his solar body had been almost completely activated. The divine sun within him shone brightly, even causing him to shimmer in the night sky.

Moreover, when he recalled that scene in Tai'an, he discovered that an ancient scripture had appeared in his mind.

Before he could investigate the origins of this ancient scripture, Tai'an focused on introspection, trying to find the golden divine tree, but ultimately found nothing.

Was it just his imagination? But what about the changes in his own physique? What about that mysterious ancient scripture? Tai'an was momentarily confused.

However, he quickly cleared his mind of all distractions and stopped worrying about it. In any case, these things were beneficial to his cultivation, and since he couldn't uncover the truth anyway, he might as well just accept them willingly.
