Chapter 1143

Even ordinary Heaven-Dao-level divine arts could hardly shake the defense of the Chaos Pearl, let alone this mere half-Dao Open Heaven Divine Thunder.

Without Luo Fu lifting a finger, the Chaos Pearl's own defensive power was more than enough to withstand the attacks of the Punishment Eye.

Failing its first strike, the Punishment Eye immediately gathered more power, ready to continue hammering Luo Fu.

Vast amounts of Heaven-Dao energy converged upon the Punishment Eye; another Open Heaven Divine Thunder began to coalesce, and this time, the chaotic color at its core was far denser than before.

Boom!

The second Open Heaven Divine Thunder still tore through the Chaos Void and slammed into the chaotic-colored barrier.

Hum!

The chaotic-colored barrier merely trembled slightly, then blocked the Punishment Eye's strike.

The Punishment Eye's second attack still failed to breach the chaotic-colored barrier.

Seeing this, Ancestor Hongjun's brow furrowed slightly.

He had not expected the Chaos Pearl's defense to be so powerful.

Clearly, Luo Fu had fully subjugated the Chaos Pearl; only then could its full power be unleashed, allowing it to effortlessly resist the Punishment Eye's assaults.

This confirmed even more strongly for Ancestor Hongjun that Luo Fu was a reincarnated Chaos Divine Demon who had already restored his power to Heaven-Dao level.

Only a Heaven-Dao-level being could subjugate a Chaos Spirit Treasure.

Since Luo Fu had subjugated the Chaos Pearl, he was undoubtedly a Heaven-Dao-level powerhouse.

As for the Quasi-Saint aura emanating from Luo Fu, Ancestor Hongjun saw it as mere disguise.

Yet Ancestor Hongjun could not fathom what concealment divine art Luo Fu had used to hide his true aura so perfectly.

Even more puzzling to Ancestor Hongjun was why Luo Fu had concealed his aura down to the Quasi-Saint layer.

If Luo Fu had once hidden his aura to reduce his presence and avoid drawing Ancestor Hongjun's early attention,

then he had no reason whatsoever to continue concealing it now.

At this point, both sides had already uncovered some of each other's secrets.

No matter how much Luo Fu disguised himself, Ancestor Hongjun could never believe he was merely a Quasi-Saint.

So Luo Fu had no need to hide at all.

Unless Luo Fu's origins were far more complex—that his reason for concealing his realm at the Quasi-Saint level was not to hide his cultivation base, but to mask his true lineage.

In Ancestor Hongjun's view, only this explanation made sense.

Unfortunately, Ancestor Hongjun could never imagine that Luo Fu had no intention of concealment whatsoever.

The aura Luo Fu emitted was only at the Quasi-Saint realm because Luo Fu himself was merely a Quasi-Saint.

Compared to the Heavens and Myriad Worlds, Ancestor Hongjun's knowledge was still vastly insufficient; even if Luo Fu told him he was merely a Quasi-Saint, Ancestor Hongjun still would not believe it.
