Chapter 123

~7 min read 1,375 words

In the Primordial World.

Comprehension can almost be said to determine how far a strong cultivator can ultimately go.

Perhaps one's origin allows a being to rise from an ordinary lifeform to a strong one, but no matter how talented, reaching the Luo Jinxian realm is generally the peak of Primordial World lifeforms.

Beyond that, to break through to the Jun Saint realm.

Never mind the temporary lack of supply of extraordinary treasures and related techniques.

Comprehension still accounts for a huge proportion.

Know that after becoming a Luo Jinxian, Primordial World lifeforms can begin to comprehend the Dao.

To become a Jun Saint, one must attain a certain level of Dao comprehension to qualify.

Otherwise, most lifeforms remain trapped in the Luo Jinxian realm.

Currently, there are countless lifeforms in the Primordial World at the Luo Jinxian level, but if you count the Jun Saints across the entire Primordial World, you could almost name them all.

This is the gap between the two.

As for the Saint realm after the Jun Saint—that is, the legendary Hunyuan Luo Jinxian.

Rumor has it that one must fully master a single Dao to have a chance to attain Hunyuan.

But in this world, not a single Saint has ever achieved this; the Three Pure Ones, Nüwa, and others became Saints primarily through fortune and merit.

Even the legendary Ancestor Hongjun is said not to have attained Hunyuan through Dao principles.

So whether this path truly exists, no one can say for sure.

All one can say is that attaining Sainthood through fortune and merit is the most reliable path.

But for the current Primordial World, it is nearly impossible for any lifeform to become a new Saint through merit and fortune.

The Saint seats were long ago decided by Heaven and Earth.

Just as Ancestor Hongjun bestowed six cushions during his teachings, implying six Saints.

Otherwise, why are there only six Saints in Heaven and Earth today?

The Three Pure Ones, Nüwa, and the Two Western Saints.

Although these six attained Sainthood not long ago, some time has passed, and the mystery of Ancestor Hongjun's cushions indirectly confirms this.

Yet for Primordial World lifeforms, they refuse to believe this truth.

In short.

Comprehension is almost the most crucial booster for Primordial World lifeforms.

And Luo Fu, with his max-level comprehension, possesses an unprecedentedly terrifying comprehension—after all, he is the direct disciple who startled Saint Tongtian.

As Luo Fu studied this virtual world.

"Roar…"

A deafening Long Yin echoed throughout this realm, and in Luo Fu's vision, a colossal dragon, seemingly filling the entire world, suddenly appeared.

This strange dragon's body was interwoven with special Dao patterns.

It radiated an ancient, weathered aura.

To Luo Fu's eyes, this dragon was, in some ways, even older than the Azure Dragon outside.

Seeing this ancient dragon, Luo Fu's mind vaguely perceived its origin.

As if the dragon itself were revealing this to him.

"Chaos Ancestral Dragon," Luo Fu murmured.

This was precisely the information the ancient dragon imparted to him: the dragon before him was the Chaos Ancestral Dragon.

The Chaos Ancestral Dragon was one of the true ancient Chaos Demons of the Primordial World.

It was a fearsome powerhouse on par with Pan Gu himself.

In the past, the Primordial World's Ancestral Dragon could not compare to it.

The Ancestral Dragon was likely formed from a portion of the Chaos Demons' power fused with the Primordial World's land.

When Pan Gu slew the three thousand Demons and absorbed their power, perhaps the Chaos Ancestral Dragon was slain by Pan Gu at that time too.

Otherwise, how could the world born from Pan Gu have given rise to special lifeforms like the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin races?

This may be the result of those Demon powers merging with Pan Gu's own essence.

Precisely because of this, the Primordial World holds such a rich diversity of life.

"Or perhaps this is a fragment of the Chaos Ancestral Dragon's power, condensed into the Dragon race's inheritance?" Luo Fu murmured.

Only this could explain why the Dragon race was once so powerful.

The Dragon race produced Jun Saint-level beings, meaning they must have possessed corresponding inheritance.

Know that at that time, Ancestor Hongjun had not yet transmitted a systematic cultivation framework; many without proper inheritance could only cultivate by instinct.

Merely relying on instinct, one could not even hope to reach the Luo Jinxian realm, let alone become a Jun Saint.

The Three Pure Ones, Nüwa, Zhenyuanzi, and other primordial deities not only possessed unique origins but also had their own inherited knowledge.

"Hum…"

Suddenly, the colossal Chaos Ancestral Dragon emitted a hazy divine light that instantly enveloped Luo Fu, leaving him no escape.

A series of runes began to appear on Luo Fu's body, each radiating the aura of the Dragon race.

More accurately, it was the aura of the true Dragon Ancestor.

Although Luo Fu, due to his origin, had never seen the true Ancestral Dragon.

But Luo Fu felt the Dragon aura in this divine light was even stronger than that of the Ancestral Dragon.

Naturally, Luo Fu did not dwell on this thought, for at this moment, more and more inheritance information flooded his mind.

It was the Dragon race's inheritance.

The vast Dragon inheritance was indeed different from the Three Pure Ones' inheritance.

This point, Luo Fu had sensed it the moment he first came into contact with the dragon clan's inheritance.

Of course, if one were to ask which related inheritance was in some sense more powerful, in Luo Fu's view, it should still be the inheritance of the Tongtian Jiaozhu.

After all, that one was a perfect fit for cultivators like them.

But the dragon clan's inheritance still had a certain adaptability.

Or rather, for the dragon clan, an inheritance like this was simply a true great opportunity.

What Luo Fu did not know was that, placed in the true Era of Kalpa Tribulation of dragon and phoenix, the dragon clans able to receive such an inheritance were few and far between.

Most dragon clans received only ordinary dragon clan inheritances.

As for the inheritance contained within the dragon pearl the Azure Dragon now bestowed, only those dragon clan geniuses who were truly valued could obtain such an inheritance.

Because an inheritance like this, each use truly meant one fewer left.

But no matter what, even though Luo Fu was not of the dragon clan, an inheritance of this kind from the dragon clan would surely bring Luo Fu tremendous help.

On this point.

The Tongtian Jiaozhu understood it very well, which was why he had Luo Fu come to Mount Yunlong.

As for whether he could obtain the dragon clan inheritance, that was another matter entirely.

In any case, for his personal disciple here, entering Mount Yunlong would not pose any danger.

With this in mind, the Tongtian Jiaozhu indicated, why not do it?

With Luo Fu's talent, it could also bring tremendous help to Luo Fu's future growth.

Having taught Luo Fu for a year, Saint Tongtian still had full confidence in Luo Fu's aptitude.

Although Luo Fu's roots were merely that of a human, and could not compare with his other personal disciples.

But compared to Luo Fu's comprehension, those few personal disciples of his simply could not compare.

That was the difference between heaven and earth.

Moreover, as a Saint, Tongtian, when facing this personal disciple of his, truly felt inferior.

Even if his roots were poor, Luo Fu's comprehension could completely make up for that shortcoming.

Because as for roots, if one wished to make up for them, the heavenly materials and earthly treasures of the Primordial World were still more than sufficient.

But if one switched to comprehension.

Trying to use heavenly materials and earthly treasures to raise it was nearly impossible.

Therefore, Tongtian attached immense importance to this personal disciple of his.

Becoming a Quasi-Saint, in Tongtian's view, following the proper steps, Luo Fu's chances of success were very great.

Even for personal disciples like Daoist Duobao, Jin Ling, and Gui Ling.

Given enough time, becoming Quasi-Saints, in the Tongtian Jiaozhu's view, was also highly probable.

On this point, Saint Tongtian Jiaozhu could still divine a thing or two.
