Shrouding the Heavens: The Ultimate Daoist Venerable

Chapter 927 Changes in the Immortal Realm
Moral Celestial Venerable's accumulated power was weaker than Liang Yu and Primordial Celestial Venerable, so he could only reach the level of a Celestial King giant.

However, even among the myriad realms, the Celestial Kings are considered quite powerful, let alone in the human universe.

Moreover, being able to leapfrog half of the Immortal King realm right after achieving the Immortal King realm is an absolute leap to the heavens.

The Celestial Venerable of Morality felt a surge of joy at his current immense power, which allowed him to naturally create a world and thus achieve the great supernatural power of opening up the heavens and the earth.

Looking back, he had already begun his cultivation in the early to mid-mythical era, and his journey from a relatively weak physique to where he is today was truly incredible. Now, he is ready to step into the next stage and move towards a brighter future.

The Celestial Venerable of Morality calmed his turbulent thoughts and adjusted himself to his optimal state. In an instant, a supreme Daoist aura quietly emanated, causing this deserted void to tremble, as if it were being influenced by his aura and about to change the silence that had lasted for countless years.

Then, the Celestial Venerable of Morality turned his gaze to the Immortal Realm.

When the Celestial Venerable of Morality began his cultivation, the Immortal Realm was a sacred place that all cultivators in the mortal universe yearned for, a place where they could aspire to become immortals. The Celestial Venerable of Morality was naturally influenced by this and developed a longing for the Immortal Realm.

Although the Celestial Venerable of Morality had an extremely strong obsession with seeking the Dao and becoming an immortal, he never approved of the method of self-mutilation and waiting for the path to immortality to open. Therefore, he always tried every means to survive so as to continue to progress.

Even though the Celestial Venerable of Morality used the Elixir of Immortality, the Nine-Turn Immortal Pill, and the method of reversing the cycle of rebirth to live four lifetimes, he ultimately did not live to see the opening of the path to immortality.

In his several lifetimes of cultivation, the Celestial Venerable of Morality only saw a world rift leading to the Immortal Realm, but no matter how hard he tried, he could not enter it. This was one of the reasons why the Undying Emperor fell to the mortal world.

As for the later Moral Celestial Venerable, he naturally knew why he couldn't break through: firstly, the world rift was too narrow, and secondly, it was due to the self-protection mechanism of the Immortal Realm.

But for the Celestial Venerable of Morality at that time, this was undoubtedly a great regret, causing him to have a deeper grudge against the Immortal Realm from then on.

Even when the Celestial Venerable of Morality lived out his fifth life, he chose a more risky method, which almost caused him to fail in his transformation and die. This was because he had not entered the Immortal Realm before and attributed the reason to his own lack of strength, thus developing a mentality of seeking quick success and instant benefits.

Therefore, even though the Celestial Venerable of Morality already knows everything about the Immortal Realm, and could easily overthrow it and even create a new one, he still has a strange obsession with it.

Even more so than Lingbao Tianzun, his obsession was even deeper.

To some extent, the reason why Lao Tzu in the original timeline was so determined to enter the Immortal Realm, and even dared to take risks in the presence of several supreme beings, was also related to this obsession.

Therefore, the Celestial Venerable of Morality did not immediately return to the human universe, which was closely connected to him, but instead went to the Celestial Realm first.

The dozens of True Immortals in the Immortal Realm could naturally sense the process of the Moral Celestial Venerable becoming an Immortal King. At that very moment, they knew that the four most powerful cultivators of the mythical era in the human universe had all become Immortal Kings.

This result filled them with endless imagination for the future and gave them even more enthusiasm for cultivation. After all, if these four people could become Immortal Kings in such a harsh environment as the mortal universe, then they, living in the Immortal Realm which was being repaired and was getting better and better, should naturally have a great chance of achieving the same goal.

However, since the Celestial Venerable of Morality had no particular connection with these cultivators in the Immortal Realm, including the ascendants from the mortal universe, they immediately resumed their cultivation.

After truly setting foot in the Immortal Realm, the Celestial Venerable of Morality couldn't help but sigh, realizing that the conditions in this world were indeed exceptionally good, far surpassing those in the human universe.

Under the methods of Liang Yu, Yuanshi Tianzun, Lingbao Tianzun, and others, all cultivators in the Immortal Realm who become True Immortals can accelerate their cultivation by repairing and evolving their Immortal Realms, thus achieving a virtuous cycle.

It is foreseeable that the Immortal Realm will continue to evolve in the future. It is even possible that it will surpass the Immortal Realm of the past in the future.

Therefore, the Celestial Venerable of Morality had nothing more to improve regarding the Immortal Realm itself. He simply refined the laws of heaven and earth in this world, making them more complete and exquisite, so that later cultivators could gain greater benefits in the process of repairing this world's cauldron.

It was during this process that the Celestial Venerable of Morality revealed some of the past of the Immortal Realm, and realized that this world was not as wonderful as he had imagined in the past; in fact, it was full of problems.

Therefore, all of the Celestial Venerable's illusions and obsessions about the Immortal Realm shattered and vanished. From then on, in his mind, only the one universe that gave birth to him and raised him would be special; all other worlds would no longer be different in his eyes.

After eliminating his obsessions and perfecting his Dao heart, the Celestial Venerable of Morality began to walk through the Immortal Realm to see what it had become.

During this process, the Celestial Venerable of Morality discovered that the Immortal Realm had undergone several reshuffles, and its atmosphere was completely different from that revealed in the historical fragments he had traced back.

After Liang Yu deliberately had Gu Tuo kill several True Immortals in the previous fragments of the Immortal Realm and started a round of reforms, the Immortal Realm broke its stagnant state and began to emerge with boundless vitality.

Later, after the strange world merged with the fragments of the immortal realm, those who had attained enlightenment from the human universe and the strange world began to shine in the immortal realm, making the original cultivators of the immortal realm pale in comparison. Only a very few people, including Gu Tuo, could remain calm under the influence of these powerful figures.

Gu Tuo was pleased with this outcome. He had originally hoped that the Immortal Realm could undergo a transformation, and now this impact was enough to completely reshape the Immortal Realm. Therefore, he even began to frequently communicate with cultivators from strange worlds and the human universe on behalf of some cultivation forces within the Immortal Realm.

As time went by, those cultivators in the Immortal Realm who considered themselves superior almost disappeared under these waves, no longer able to muster any arrogance.

These cultivators from the human universe not only changed the strange world, but also the immortal realm, causing the atmosphere of this world to begin to align with that of the human universe.

Upon hearing this, the Celestial Venerable of Morality felt relieved. His previous obsession with the Immortal Realm and the negative emotions he had developed from understanding the Immortal Realm in the past all vanished in this situation.

Thus, the Celestial Venerable of Morality left the Immortal Realm without any regrets.
