Shrouding the Heavens: The Ultimate Daoist Venerable

Chapter 37 Divine Ancestor
This unified and synchronized situation must have been discussed beforehand. The earth and mountains trembled in response to this unified and powerful sound.

These cultivators genuinely praised Liang Yu from the bottom of their hearts. Because Liang Yu had changed the environment of Ziwei Star and continued the ancient star path, it was nothing short of a life-saving grace to them.

Liang Yu said, “No need for formalities. I have returned to Ziwei Star this time to revitalize my hometown. I will be preaching for a year. Cultivators who were unable to come here need not be disappointed. As long as you are devoted to the Dao and recite the name of Wuji Tianzun, you will be able to see my true form.”

Before the cultivators could even ponder the significance of returning to Ziwei Star, they were drawn to the Daoist aura emanating from Liang Yu.

Upon closer inspection, they saw Liang Yu's figure shift as he began to deduce various scriptures and Taoist techniques. Strangely, each of them saw Liang Yu deduce different scriptures and Taoist techniques, and these happened to be the ones they were most proficient in.

Furthermore, these scriptures and Taoist teachings are unfathomably profound, and are all more exquisite and complete versions than what they have learned in their entire lives.

While deducing his scriptures and Taoist teachings, Liang Yu also interspersed his explanations of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.

Everyone present was completely absorbed, deeply engrossed in enlightenment, with various extraordinary phenomena and divine lights appearing one after another, but under Liang Yu's supernatural powers, they did not interfere with each other.

Liang Yu's voice resounded throughout the ancient star of Ziwei. Many cultivators who were unable to come due to reasons such as long distances, insufficient strength, numerous miscellaneous matters, or not knowing the location were overjoyed upon hearing this. They immediately sat down on the ground and chanted the name of the Boundless Heavenly Venerable.

As soon as they finished speaking, they saw a figure appear in the sky ahead, deducing their respective scriptures and Taoist methods, and expounding on the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.

Liang Yu seemed to be omnipresent. No matter which region of the Ziwei Ancient Star you were in, as long as you recited his title, you could see this near-immortal figure in the void directly in front of you.

Of course, Liang Yu did this not because he had comprehended the secrets of the Immortal King, the gap between them was too great.

His ability to perform this way actually stems from his powerful primordial spirit covering every corner of Ziwei Star, capturing every voice reciting the name of the Venerable One, and then projecting his own Dharma body using the Void Seal.

As for deducing the Daoist techniques these people excel at, that relies purely on their strong willpower, talent, and the Daoist fruits of their profound understanding of all techniques and the secret of the Dou character.

Fortunately, he had studied most of the ancient scriptures and fragments and various supernatural powers of Ziwei Star, so the burden was not too heavy.

Eight months passed in the blink of an eye. Liang Yu stopped performing sermons and changed the content of his teachings.

Liang Yu, standing before all the cultivators, had his five secret realms begin to glow.

The Sea of ​​Wheels, the Palace of Dao, the Four Extremes, the Dragon Transformation, and the Immortal Platform manifest in sequence. Liang Yu explained in detail the fundamental principles of cultivating the five great secret realms to their ultimate level, starting from each stage of each realm.

Next, they began to demonstrate how to perfectly connect the five secret realms, forming a flawless and perfect whole.

Although these things do not directly enhance combat power, they will greatly strengthen the foundation of these cultivators.

Due to the fragmented nature of their lineage and the resulting lack of a systematic approach to cultivation, cultivators from Ziwei Star possess formidable combat strength, but they face significant challenges in cultivating within the five major secret realms.

They generally value techniques but neglect fundamental skills. Their five major secret realms are often practiced separately, with no perfect connection between them.

This can lead to a lack of stamina and difficulty in making progress in their later practice.

To prevent them from taking these detours, Liang Yu spent the last four months making up for this shortcoming.

Four months have passed in the blink of an eye.

After Liang Yu finished his sermon, he scattered the secrets of the characters Lin, Dou, and Qian, as well as the complete versions of the Daoist scriptures (excluding the secret techniques), the Nirvana Heavenly Skill, the Free and Easy Heavenly Skill, and the Longevity Daoist Scripture, to various places, leaving them for those with the right affinity.

After thinking for a moment, he also left behind a copy of his self-created Wuji Dao Jing.

He did not leave his ancient scripture in Lingguan Cave Heaven because this ancient scripture was the result of the Path of All Laws Connecting Heaven, and its difficulty was too high to be popularized.

This ancient scripture can only be learned by those with exceptional talent, capable of understanding one thing and mastering all others. It can only be left to the descendants of the Purple Star.

Afterwards, Liang Yu said, "The sermon is over. I hope you will all diligently cultivate yourselves and not slacken."

Although reluctant, these cultivators had no choice but to accept it. They quickly composed themselves and chanted in unison once more, "Honorable Boundless Heavenly Venerable!"

After most of the cultivators had left, Liang Yu revealed his true form. Those who remained were mostly core figures from the Twelve Holy Lands and Thirty-Six Sects. These were essentially his contemporaries, whom he had defeated and left far behind, unable to even catch up to.

He is also one of the few remaining acquaintances of Liang Yu.

After leaving Lingguan Cave, Liang Yu followed his master Qing Lingzi's teachings and disguised himself with various identities and appearances to infiltrate various sects and steal their ancient scriptures and supernatural powers. During that period, he was universally hated.

The situation worsened after Liang Yu obtained the Chaos Stone and extracted its essence to forge a pagoda. Thanks to Liang Yu's superb acting skills and his habit of always having a backup plan, he escaped danger multiple times.

Many of those present actually met Liang Yu during this period. However, they fell behind within a few years. Liang Yu's opponents then became the older generation of cultivators from various sects.

This situation only truly ended after Liang Yu ascended to the second level of the Sendai and became a Holy Lord. This was because he challenged the Holy Lords of twelve Holy Lands in a single day, winning all twelve battles.

Even a Dao-Slaying King secretly made a move, but was still repelled by Liang Yu. From then on, all forces withdrew their orders to kill him.

Afterwards, Liang Yu, who had severed his Dao, became the number one expert in the world of Ziwei Star, and all the holy lands could only treat him as an honored guest.

After he defied the heavens to become a saint and traversed the starry sky to depart, these holy lands almost worshipped him. After all, he was now the first saint on Ziwei Star in tens of thousands of years.

Upon seeing Liang Yu, these people displayed a variety of expressions, some joyful, some worried, some respectful, and some fearful.

Liang Yu smiled slightly and said, "Gentlemen, it's been over a thousand years. It's so good to see you all still here."

With a casual wave of his hand, divine light descended, and another drop of Kunlun Immortal Liquid was broken down by him, greatly enhancing the lifespan and physique of these people; and each of them was given an ancient scripture by Liang Yu, an ancient scripture most suitable for them.

Liang Yu sighed, "I will strive to cultivate myself, and hope that several thousand years from now, I will be able to face your challenge."

This might be their last meeting. Liang Yu has become a Celestial Venerable, and even though the world has changed and their star paths are now connected, it would be difficult for them to achieve an alternative path to enlightenment and gain the qualification to challenge Liang Yu. Therefore, it would be difficult for them to have any further interaction.

As for their lifespan, needless to say, even after they had all passed away, Liang Yu was still at his peak. Even though Liang Yu secretly enhanced their physique and extended their lifespan, it was ultimately a drop in the ocean.

After bidding farewell to everyone, Liang Yu sighed, looked outside the Lingguan Cave Heaven Formation, and said, "Come in. Today is the day I reunite with old friends. You've come uninvited, so you'd better have a good reason."

Outside the grand formation, an elderly man at the ninth level of the Quasi-Saint realm and a boy who looked to be only a little over ten years old stood outside the formation. Upon hearing this, they entered through the opened formation.

The old man and the young man were not cultivators from Ziwei Star; they came from other star regions. Long before Liang Yu began his sermons, they had followed in his footsteps to Ziwei Star and even recited his name while listening to his teachings.

After the sermon ended, they did not leave, but instead requested an audience outside the great formation.

Seeing that they maintained a polite attitude towards the lower-level disciples of Lingguan Cave, Liang Yu agreed to meet them.

To everyone's surprise, as soon as they came in, they said something that Liang Yu never expected.

"Greetings, Divine Ancestor!"
