Chapter 1251: The Heaven-Dao-Level Powerhouse

The Twelve Elemental Chens were merely Sub-Saints, capable at most of suppressing Hunyuan Daoluoxian.

Dealing with a Heaven-Dao-level powerhouse is no easy matter.

Counting it up, Ancestor Hongjun was merely an ordinary Heaven-Dao-level powerhouse, one who had nearly been slain by Pangu and was forced to cling to life by reincarnating within the Primordial World.

Since he had already reincarnated, most of Ancestor Hongjun's past accumulations were almost certainly lost.

The Primordial World is merely a Hunyuan world; aside from the Three Dao—Heaven, Earth, and Humanity—there is no means capable of targeting Heaven-Dao-level powerhouses.

Thus, even after centuries of cultivation within the Primordial World, Ancestor Hongjun could hardly possess any trump card capable of influencing or suppressing a Heaven-Dao-level powerhouse.

For Ancestor Hongjun, it would be better to devote his efforts to devouring the Heaven-Dao than to painstakingly prepare trump cards against Heaven-Dao-level powerhouses.

As long as Ancestor Hongjun could devour the Heaven-Dao, no Heaven-Dao-level powerhouse would be his match.

Within the Primordial World, any Heaven-Dao-level powerhouse who enters is inevitably suppressed.

The Primordial World is no ordinary Hunyuan world; even if a dozen ordinary Heaven-Dao-level powerhouses appeared at once, Ancestor Hongjun could suppress them all using the Heaven-Dao.

Therefore, Ancestor Hongjun never prepared any trump card targeting Heaven-Dao-level powerhouses.

The trump cards Ancestor Hongjun prepared were all aimed at Hunyuan Daoluoxian.

More precisely, they were aimed at the Wan Ling of the Primordial World.

He prepared these trump cards to maintain suppression over the Wan Ling of the Primordial World while he was restrained by the Heaven-Dao.

Had he not considered the possibility that he might be restrained by the Heaven-Dao while devouring it, Ancestor Hongjun would not have prepared any so-called trump cards at all.

In Ancestor Hongjun's eyes, he himself was the greatest trump card.

No trump card could compare to him acting in person.

Indeed, no trump card could match the power of Ancestor Hongjun, a Heaven-Dao-level powerhouse, acting directly.

But Ancestor Hongjun never anticipated he would encounter Luo Fu.

Compared to ordinary Heaven-Dao-level powerhouses, Luo Fu bore too many buffs, ultimately causing him to fall into Luo Fu's hands.

To be honest, Ancestor Hongjun still has not figured out how Luo Fu, a Heaven-Dao-level powerhouse, managed to deceive the Heaven-Dao and gain the recognition of the Earth-Dao and Human-Dao.

In Ancestor Hongjun's eyes, Luo Fu was a Heaven-Dao-level powerhouse.

His trump cards have little effect against Heaven-Dao-level powerhouses, so there was no need to reveal them.

Luo Fu was not overly concerned about the trump cards Ancestor Hongjun might possess.

Luo Fu knew well that Ancestor Hongjun was an extremely cautious man.

Without certainty regarding Luo Fu's true strength, Ancestor Hongjun would never reveal his trump cards.

After all, Ancestor Hongjun's other trump cards, unlike the Twelve Elemental Chens, lacked the Heaven-Dao's protection and could not achieve immortality.

Earlier, Ancestor Hongjun revealed the Five Sacred Beasts and the Twelve Elemental Chens precisely because they were Heaven-Dao Sub-Saints, protected by the Heaven-Dao, capable of resurrection even after death.

Trump cards that can be resurrected—even if exposed—are of no great consequence.

Trump cards that cannot be resurrected are entirely different.
