Chapter 1070: Cast All Saints Down to the Mortal Realm! Exploit Ancestor Hongjun

Even if Ancestor Hongjun spent countless Wushuyuan, he might still not be able to gather all twelve Yuan Chen.

Gathering them is hard; cultivating them is harder.

The Time Dao is simply too difficult to comprehend.

Most importantly, Ancestor Hongjun himself is not skilled in the Time Dao.

Thus, Ancestor Hongjun could only rely on the Heavenly Dao, granting the twelve Yuan Chen countless resources and boundless Heavenly Dao favor to forcibly accelerate their growth.

After exhausting countless costs, he barely managed to push the twelve Yuan Chen to the mid-Pre-Sage realm.

If the twelve Yuan Chen's realm advancement were easy, Ancestor Hongjun, who nearly controlled the entire Heavenly Dao, would never have refrained from investing effort to help them rise.

The twelve Yuan Chen's realm advancement is simply too difficult—even Ancestor Hongjun cannot forcibly elevate their realm, which is why they remain only at mid-Pre-Sage.

Mid-Pre-Sage, in Ancestor Hongjun's view, is already sufficient.

The Twelve Yuan Chen Array is used against Saints, because even though they also wield Heavenly Dao authority, when the gap in talent, comprehension, and realm is vast, the Twelve Yuan Chen's small realm is easily vulnerable and can be forcibly shattered.

But when used against ordinary Hunyuan Daoluo Jin Xian, such a situation does not arise.

External Hunyuan Daoluo Jin Xian, once entering the Primordial World, have most of their power suppressed.

The most severely suppressed is perception.

Under the Heavenly Dao's suppression, ordinary Hunyuan Daoluo Jin Xian likely cannot even detect the flaws in the Twelve Yuan Chen's small realm before being completely subdued.

The Twelve Yuan Chen Array, when used against ordinary Hunyuan Daoluo Jin Xian, can subdue even ten appearing simultaneously.

This is the true strength of the Twelve Yuan Chen Array.

Saint Tongtian is a Saint, not an ordinary Hunyuan Daoluo Jin Xian; the weaknesses of the Twelve Yuan Chen Array cannot escape Saint Tongtian's eyes.

Under normal circumstances, when a Saint is cut off from perception of the Heavenly Dao, their power drops to less than one-tenth.

Even if they discover the flaw in the Twelve Yuan Chen Array, they have almost no chance of breaking it.

This is why Ancestor Hongjun pays little heed to the Saints.

The Saints are merely puppets of the Heavenly Dao; with a single thought, he can cast all of them down to the mortal realm.

Due to the Heavenly Dao, Ancestor Hongjun cannot truly kill the Saints or strip them of their Saintly positions.

But severing the connection between the Saints and their Saintly positions—or even turning the Saints into puppets through their Saintly positions—is no problem at all.

The Heavenly Dao is merely a rigid program; it only requires the six Saints of the Primordial World. The actual state of the six Saints is outside the Heavenly Dao's consideration Fan Chou.

However, with Luo Fu's help, the Dao of Sword that reached the Hunyuan layer preserved Saint Tongtian's combat power at the Hunyuan level, giving Saint Tongtian the possibility of exploiting the flaws in the Twelve Yuan Chen Array.

Due to their low realm, the twelve Yuan Chen have weak control over the Twelve Yuan Chen's small realm.

This gives Saint Tongtian the chance to exploit loopholes.

How to exploit loopholes—Saint Tongtian is exceptionally skilled at it.

Over countless Wushuyuan, the thing Saint Tongtian has done most is exploit loopholes in Ancestor Hongjun.

In a way, Ancestor Hongjun and the twelve Yuan Chen are very similar.

The twelve Yuan Chen, due to their insufficient realm, can barely control the Twelve Yuan Chen's small realm, leaving countless flaws throughout it—and they cannot even detect those flaws.

Ancestor Hongjun, however, because the Heavenly Dao was once too powerful, has been unable to fully master it.

Without complete control over the Heavenly Dao, Ancestor Hongjun's control over the Primordial World is crude.

One might say, Ancestor Hongjun cannot even fully control the entire Primordial World.

In terms of realm, Ancestor Hongjun is not low at all; for a realm at the Heavenly Dao level, controlling an ordinary Hunyuan layer world would impose little pressure on him.

In terms of status, the Heavenly Dao level is equivalent to a Hunyuan layer world.

But the Primordial World is not an ordinary Hunyuan layer world—it was opened by a half-Dao-level powerhouse who slew countless Chaos Divine Demons, using their bodies as material and sacrificing himself to the Dao.

The Primordial World's foundation far exceeds that of ordinary Hunyuan layer worlds.

The Heavenly Dao it gave birth to is vastly stronger than the Heavenly Dao of ordinary Hunyuan layer worlds.

Even as a Heavenly Dao-level being, Ancestor Hongjun can only slowly erode the Heavenly Dao through various means—he cannot directly overpower or assimilate the entire Heavenly Dao.

This is precisely why Ancestor Hongjun covets the Primordial World; if it were not so powerful, he would have no reason to expend so much time and effort to invade its Heavenly Dao.

Precisely because Ancestor Hongjun still cannot fully master the entire Primordial World, he has given Saint Tongtian the chance to exploit loopholes.

The twelve Yuan Chen also cannot fully control the Twelve Yuan Chen's small realm.

Saint Tongtian can exploit loopholes in Ancestor Hongjun.

Exploiting loopholes in the Twelve Yuan Chen's small realm is even easier than flipping one's hand.

Without expending much effort, Saint Tongtian already conceived how to use the flaws in the Twelve Yuan Chen's small realm.

Permanently severing the Twelve Yuan Chen's small realm's perception of him would require immense magic power and is impractical.

But other methods can achieve a similar effect.

Eradicating one's own aura is the alternative method.
