Shrouding the Heavens: The Ultimate Daoist Venerable

Chapter 111 Traces of the Chaotic Azure Lotus
Liang Yu waved goodbye to the Underworld Lord. But since they would meet again soon, there was no need for further words.

The Immortal Tomb is currently located next to the Underworld, but Liang Yu had previously placed the Eternal Life Celestial Venerable there to preserve his state, so it naturally wouldn't be disturbed now. After all, the Eternal Life Celestial Venerable, having cultivated the Ancient Scripture of Burying Immortals, would find the best resting place there.

Moreover, Liang Yu had a vague idea brewing within him, which might be related to the Eternal Heavenly Venerable and the Immortal Tomb. For now, he would let things take their course.

After all, the Immortal Tomb was of no use to him, but he did take the Immortal Flame with him.

As for what to do with Kunlun Immortal Mountain, Liang Yu didn't really have any ideas. However, after thinking about it, since their research on Kunlun Immortal Mountain mainly relied on Kunlun Immortal Blood, he decided to return one of the mountains to Ying Shenxiao and the New Kunlun Clan.

As for the other two, one will naturally be reserved for the Underworld Lord, and the other will serve as the place of reincarnation for these supreme beings.

Liang Yu lifted up one of the Kunlun Immortal Mountains. The core of this immortal mountain was half of the Kunlun Immortal Pool, which, after being restored, transformed into a wondrous place once again. However, it was indeed much weaker than the previous Kunlun Immortal Mountain and would require a long period of time to recover.

Even with the intervention of two great masters of source arts, the timeframe could only be shortened to tens of thousands of years at most.

But this is for the best. Tens of thousands of years later, he, Lingbao, and Daode will surely still be alive. As for the Underworld Lord, it's hard to say, but his current life may not be over either.

In fact, if you calculate the timeline, the Emperor would have already been born by then. In the current timeline, the Emperor should not be corrupted by dark forces, making him a potential ally of Liang Yu.

With those few, he would have absolute power, enough to control the entire situation. Then, he would directly tell the remaining Supreme Beings of the Forbidden Zones about the reincarnation and ascension plans.

This is where the classic tactic of "pulling one group and attacking another" comes in.

For those supreme beings who haven't instigated any dark upheavals, since you can't enter the path to immortality, do you wish to be reborn and cultivate anew? Do you wish to ascend to a wondrous world where you can live forever? Do you wish to become immortals?
If you wish, then immediately surrender and join our ranks. Moreover, you must obediently offer your pledge of allegiance and fight to the death with those other supreme beings who must be eliminated, preferably taking some heads.

Those with battle records will be given priority for reincarnation; those without records will have to wait in line.

This way, they would have enough manpower to easily eliminate all restricted areas, and they wouldn't have to worry about anyone escaping.

Thinking of these things, Liang Yu couldn't help but smile.

Then, he left the underworld.

This time, endless divine light illuminated the universe, and the sound of the Dao rolled on. The Dao imprint, which was about to dissipate, also emitted bursts of Dao power, shaking the universe.

This is the Great Celestial Venerable Wuji in his later years, who has reappeared in the world.

As always, in his later years, Liang Yu began to travel through the universe again, leaving behind his legacy in some places and guiding the cultivation of some cultivators.

Is this the end of an era, or the beginning of a new legend?
Countless cultivators eagerly awaited his arrival. After all, the Great Celestial Venerable had existed for a hundred thousand years, an unimaginably long period. During these hundred thousand years, he had become the supreme deity in the hearts of countless people.

If he continues to live, then in many people's minds, it would be no different from becoming an immortal.

Although Liang Yu is already very old, after witnessing his various extraordinary feats, it is no longer possible for the other supreme beings to be lured out by him.

The universe is so vast that even Liang Yu could not traverse it all. Therefore, these supreme beings can still barely remain hidden.

Of course, if Liang Yu were to single-mindedly search the entire universe, there would still be hope of finding them all. However, doing so could easily lead these supreme beings to act recklessly and even risk their lives.

Although Liang Yu himself is not afraid, he could still cause a cosmic catastrophe and widespread suffering. So let's wait until everyone is here.

Liang Yu traveled to a starry sky and suddenly felt a surge of inspiration. The secret of cultivating the primordial spirit could not only make one's consciousness immortal, but also further strengthen the physical body, allowing it to reach a point where it could do whatever it wanted and be invincible. Furthermore, if one cultivated to an extremely high level, one could even foresee the future.

Over the years, Liang Yu combined the secrets of the previous characters with the fragments of the Undying Scripture left by the Desolate Heaven Emperor to create his own unique primordial mystic arts, which naturally included the ways of foresight and deduction.

Therefore, this sudden impulse was a natural perception arising from his primordial spirit, giving him a hint about the future.

At this moment, deep within the universe, an elderly Quasi-Saint broke through the void and arrived. He seemed very anxious, as if he were searching for something.

But as soon as he stepped out of the void passage, he sensed that Liang Yu's aura was already not far away, separated only by a star field. He was stunned at first, then gritted his teeth, changed direction, and headed towards Liang Yu.

All of this naturally came to Liang Yu's attention.

Why would a quasi-deity cause me to suddenly feel something and resonate with it?

Driven by curiosity, Liang Yu did not take any further steps, but remained where he was, waiting for the quasi-revered one to arrive.

Soon, the demon quasi-venerable who had transformed from a blue phoenix arrived before Liang Yu. He immediately bowed and said, "Greetings, Great Heavenly Venerable."

He looked up slightly and found that Liang Yu now looked more like an ordinary person than before. Originally, because of his Myriad Laws Body, Liang Yu would appear in completely different forms in the eyes of different people. Therefore, every portrait of the third incarnation of the Supreme Heavenly Venerable Wuji that circulates in the universe is different.

If it weren't for the fact that his portraits from his previous two lives had been preserved, probably no one in the universe would know his true appearance.

But now Liang Yu seems to have returned to simplicity, no longer manifesting various images, but rather unified into one form.

Although they could still sense the supreme achievement of all laws connecting heaven and earth from Liang Yu, all of this was naturally revealed in his physical form, without any deliberate changes.

It was as if his every move contained the wonders of all magic.

Although Qingluan Quasi-Venerable had heard of the name of Wuji Jitian Venerable before, this was the first time he had met him.

Liang Yu said, "You've come all this way to see me, is there something you need?"

The Azure Phoenix Quasi-Venerable said, "When I was young, I saw an immortal herb, the legendary Immortal Lotus. It was one of its remaining lotus seeds that helped me lay the foundation for my cultivation and begin my path of cultivation."

"After I became a Quasi-Venerable and gained some cultivation, I revisited this place hoping to find this immortal herb. But I missed it in the end; the Immortal Lotus had already vanished into thin air. I searched for thousands of years but still couldn't find it. Only just now did I barely catch a trace of its aura."

"The Great Celestial Venerable is all-powerful and will surely find this divine medicine. I only ask for one lotus seed to lay the foundation for future generations."

The immortal lotus that once appeared in the mythical era? Isn't that the predecessor of the Azure Emperor?
That confirms the identity of this Azure Phoenix Quasi-Venerable.

In later generations, Ye Fan broke the seal on the eighteen levels of hell left by Shakyamuni, releasing a host of demons and monsters as his followers. The strongest of these demons was named Mountain Phoenix, a powerful demon at the third level of the Quasi-Emperor realm.

He was originally a pheasant who became a spirit. He had a fortuitous encounter in an ancient cave from the mythical era, which opened up his path of cultivation, and he eventually became a quasi-emperor.

This ancient cave contains not only fragments of the Nine-Turn Immortal Pill, but also several incomplete scriptures. These scriptures contain not only research on the elixir of immortality, but also the story of the cave master's lifelong pursuit of the Immortal Lotus, which he failed to obtain.

This Azure Phoenix Quasi-Venerable was the master of that ancient cave dwelling from the mythical era, and the immortal lotus he pursued was the Chaos Azure Lotus, which was the predecessor of the Azure Emperor.
