Chapter 1068: Clash at the Hunyuan Layer! Invincible in the Primordial Chaos!
As long as one is within the Twelve Zodiacs' Small Heaven, the Twelve Zodiacs can constantly sense their location.
Because the Twelve Zodiacs' Small Heaven is condensed by the Twelve Zodiacs themselves, in a certain sense, the Twelve Zodiacs can be considered its masters.
As masters of the Small Heaven, the Twelve Zodiacs have one hundred percent control over it.
To the Twelve Zodiacs, the Twelve Zodiacs' Small Heaven is like their own bodies.
Naturally, one can instantly detect any state of one's own body.
But the Twelve Zodiacs' realm is somewhat lacking.
Their control over the Twelve Zodiacs' Small Heaven is not very refined.
Although the Twelve Zodiacs' perception is distributed across every corner of the Twelve Zodiacs' Small Heaven, no movement within it can escape their awareness.
Yet due to their insufficient realm, this perception has a certain delay and is relatively crude.
That is, any movement within the Twelve Zodiacs' Small Heaven must undergo a certain delay before the Twelve Zodiacs become aware of it.
This delay is not long, but it is still a form of lag.
For instance, after Luo Fu transformed into a sword-light, his flight speed was so extreme that the Twelve Zodiacs struggled to pinpoint his exact position.
By the time they sensed him, Luo Fu had long since left his original location.
Furthermore, only movements large enough could be perceived by the Twelve Zodiacs.
Just as mortals cannot hear the sound of a needle dropping, if a movement is as faint as a needle falling, the Twelve Zodiacs would remain completely unaware.
Currently, the Twelve Zodiacs' spiritual awareness is occupied, making their perception of the Twelve Zodiacs' Small Heaven even coarser.
Taking the needle-drop example again: in an empty room, in complete silence, one might still hear the needle fall.
But in a bustling marketplace, or while conversing with someone, the sound of a needle dropping would be utterly ignored.
The Twelve Zodiacs' spiritual awareness is tied up by Luo Fu, so their attention to other matters has dropped sharply, making it easy to overlook small details.
Saint Tongtian exploits precisely this point.
With his current power, without relying on the Heavenly Dao's force, Saint Tongtian cannot permanently sever the Twelve Zodiacs' Small Heaven's perception of him.
After all, Saint Tongtian has only broken through the Dao of the Sword to the Hunyuan layer; he himself has not become a Hunyuan Daluo Jin Xian.
A Saint must rely on the Heavenly Dao's force to be considered a Hunyuan powerhouse.
Without the Heavenly Dao's force, a Saint is only slightly stronger than a typical Peak Semi-Saint.
Even with the Hunyuan-layer Dao of the Sword, Saint Tongtian can only temporarily hold his own against a typical Hunyuan Daluo Jin Xian.
His combat power qualifies as Hunyuan layer, but his true strength does not.
Because Saint Tongtian lacks one crucial element: the boundless magic power of a Hunyuan Daluo Jin Xian.
Without the Heavenly Dao's support, Saint Tongtian's magic power is finite.
In terms of layer, after the Heavenly Dao's purification, Saint Tongtian's magic power is no weaker than that of a typical Hunyuan Daluo Jin Xian.
