Shrouding the Heavens: The Ultimate Daoist Venerable

Chapter 903 Lingbao Emerges from Seclusion
After his successful transformation, Duan De's aura of the Great Dao expanded once again, becoming even more powerful, causing cultivators throughout the human universe to tremble.

Few people know exactly who this mysterious Emperor of Calamity is anymore, yet his reputation grows ever more illustrious. After all, cultivators throughout the mortal universe can fully sense his power emanating from his aura of the Great Dao.

Duan De adjusted his breathing and felt the curse power within him finally subside, which filled him with ecstatic joy.

After all, even the curse power tainted in the few reincarnation seals deep within his origin had subsided, and it would obviously take a long time to recover. Therefore, this power would no longer affect his ability to start the next life.

Now, he can finally begin to search the universe again to find the most suitable location for him to start his next life, thus preparing for his future path to immortality in the mortal world.

Because of this, Duan De now finally has time to conduct in-depth research on Origin Techniques.

Although Duan De had essentially given up cultivating Source Arts after bidding farewell to his previous life as the Underworld Lord, he still needed this secret technique as an aid in every subsequent life, allowing him to better nurture himself.

Therefore, Duan De actually only used Source Technique as an auxiliary means, and did not make it one of his main cultivation methods as he did during the time of the Underworld Lord.

Now, Duan De finally has a break, so he can continue to delve deeper into this path and create the best conditions to start the next life.

As for himself, due to the influence of the curse, he has already exceeded expectations and therefore does not need to delve too deeply.

So Duan De ended his seclusion, concealed his appearance, and began to walk through the human universe again, hoping to travel all over the universe and find the special terrain most suitable for him.

Depending on the achievements of the previous life and the possible changes in the next life, the terrain he needs will also change. It's not enough for it to be good enough; it also needs to be suitable for him.

Therefore, such terrain is rare and cannot be found easily. However, thanks to the continuous progress of the human universe in recent years, these special terrains have become more and more common, so Duan De is not worried about not being able to find suitable terrain.

He has now undergone a transformation, not only significantly improving his strength but also greatly enhancing his vitality. Therefore, his lifespan will be at least over 30,000 years.

With his powerful cultivation, he could find any kind of terrain he wanted during such a long period of time. What Duan De needed to worry about was how to choose the most suitable place for himself.

Time flies, and five thousand years have passed in the blink of an eye. Duan De's rise continues, and he is gradually becoming more and more powerful. He has also found more than one suitable place for his transformation.

But adhering to the principle of selecting the best of the best, Duan De did not stop, but continued to search.

However, at this moment, in the Wuji Immortal Mountain, Liang Yu opened his eyes, ended his seclusion, and looked at the place where Lingbao Tianzun was in seclusion, which was Yuhua Divine Island.

As a Celestial King, Liang Yu could naturally sense the overwhelmingly powerful aura emanating from Lingbao Tianzun, knowing that he was about to emerge from seclusion.

At this moment, Yuanshi Tianzun, who was also a Celestial King, ended his seclusion. He also sensed this aura and shifted his attention to it.

Under their watchful eyes, Lingbao Tianzun concluded this phase of his cultivation and officially emerged from seclusion. He disregarded Liang Yu and Yuanshi Tianzun, focusing instead on his own cultivation. Lingbao Tianzun was undoubtedly the last of the four to achieve the sixth secret realm. The reason for this was that he had diverted some of his energy to studying the laws of the field.

Because his sixth secret realm was formed the latest, he was able to absorb the various achievements of the other three in the sixth secret realm, thus having a more complete sixth secret realm from the beginning and saving a lot of trial and error time.

Later, his experience of combining the sixth secret realm with Yuanshi Tianzun and Daode Tianzun to form the Great Luo Heaven saved Lingbao Tianzun a lot of hard work in refining and perfecting the sixth secret realm.

After all, their sixth secret realms are completely interconnected in this state, and he can directly use the experience and achievements of the other two to complete his own sixth secret realm.

This series of experiences ensured that Lingbao Tianzun's cultivation in the sixth secret realm did not lag too far behind; on the contrary, he narrowed the gap to an extremely slight degree.

Thus, as they perfected the Sixth Secret Realm and began researching how to create their own systems, the advantage of the Celestial Venerable Lingbao became apparent. After all, he had long ago clearly defined the direction of his system: the Law of Fields.

Throughout the long years before, Lingbao Tianzun was most skilled in swordsmanship and array patterns. His Word Combination Secret was the highest achievement in array patterns in the human universe for at least millions of years.

Later, through the Underworld Lord and Liang Yu, he came into contact with the Origin Technique, and used it to further develop his already mastered array pattern technique, making it even more powerful.

Later, he and Liang Yu tried to combine array patterns with source techniques to form a completely new method, and they continued to improve it on his path to immortality in the mortal world, which eventually proved quite successful.

Therefore, Lingbao Tianzun has accumulated a wealth of experience in creating his own system, having laid a solid foundation long before he became a mortal immortal.

Therefore, when he used his experience in opening the sixth secret realm with others to further expand the field method and form a system independent of the secret realm method, Lingbao Tianzun found that his progress was much smoother than he had imagined.

Therefore, he was able to achieve success only 30,000 years later than Yuanshi Tianzun and 60,000 years later than Liang Yu.

It should be noted that Liang Yu was at the pinnacle of immortality. Although Yuanshi Tianzun had not reached that level, he had still surpassed the peak of the mortal immortal realm. Lingbao Tianzun was only a step behind these two in terms of realm, and should have been much slower in creating techniques.

But at least from the perspective of the Immortal Kings, the difference of tens of thousands of years is almost negligible. The speed at which they created their techniques was not much different, which shows the importance of early accumulation.

As for the system created by Lingbao Tianzun, it is naturally close to complete and can exist as an independent system of field methods.

Considering the astonishing performance of the later Chu Emperor, Liang Yu had always wanted to bring this system into existence ahead of schedule, and he had put in a lot of effort.

Ultimately, even though he knew the general direction, neither he nor his clone, Wuji Daoren, succeeded. Instead, Lingbao Tianzun, who had always been exceptionally talented in this field, succeeded. This can be described as specializing in one's own field.
