Chapter 1335: Striking for Hunyuan Jin Xian! Standing Equal with Ancestor Hongjun!
The world is different, so the individuals within it may also be different.
However, Luo Fu had not fully let down his guard toward Ancestor Hongjun.
For instance, the Long Hanchu calamity in this world still occurred as normal.
The War between the Wu and Yao clans would almost certainly have occurred normally, had it not been for his presence.
From this, it is clear that Ancestor Hongjun in this world is certainly not as simple as he appears.
Even if he has a gentle side, he must also possess a ruthless one.
"No, I won't go to the Purple Cloud Palace. I came here for two purposes: one is to seek your clarification, and the other is to discuss something with you."
Since Ancestor Hongjun's reaction was unexpectedly unpredictable and could no longer serve as a reference to the Journey to the West World's Ancestor Hongjun, he abandoned the so-called plan and chose a more direct approach.
Without further idle talk or formalities, Luo Fu stated his purpose outright.
"Oh? I wonder what matter the young friend wishes to inquire about, and what matter he wishes to discuss with old Tao."
Ancestor Hongjun regarded the projection of the legendary avatar with keen interest, his eyes holding a trace of curiosity.
He was curious about what Luo Fu wanted from him.
Ancestor Hongjun had long sensed Luo Fu's lack of deference.
He simply chose to ignore it.
As Luo Fu suspected, Ancestor Hongjun indeed possessed a ruthless side.
Having survived under Pangu's hand, ultimately defeated the Demon Patriarch Luo Hou, and then monopolized the entire Primordial World, Ancestor Hongjun could not have done so without means.
Under normal circumstances, Ancestor Hongjun would have punished Luo Fu for his insolence.
Strength demands reverence.
But today, Ancestor Hongjun was in an exceptionally good mood, so he had no intention of punishing Luo Fu.
Ancestor Hongjun's good mood was also due to Luo Fu.
Earlier, Ancestor Hongjun had sensed that someone in the Primordial World was attempting to break through to Hunyuan Jin Xian.
But it seemed the attempt had failed—he detected no one who had succeeded in reaching Hunyuan Jin Xian.
Ancestor Hongjun felt deep regret over this.
Unlike the Ancestor Hongjun of the Journey to the West World, the Ancestor Hongjun of the Primordial World sincerely wished for a Hunyuan Jin Xian to emerge in the Primordial World.
If the Ancestor Hongjun of the Primordial World were truly the same as the one in the Journey to the West World, Luo Fu would have already been targeted long ago.
From the moment Luo Fu condensed the Earth Dao, he had already become a threat to Ancestor Hongjun.
If one can condense the Earth Dao, breaking through to Hunyuan Jin Xian is virtually guaranteed.
If Hunyuan Jin Xian is a threat, then a genius who will almost certainly break through to Hunyuan Jin Xian is certainly also a threat.
Yet, after Ancestor Hongjun punished Saint Zhunti, he did not target Luo Fu.
This shows that the Ancestor Hongjun of the Primordial World differs in character from the one in the Journey to the West World.
At the very least, the Ancestor Hongjun of the Primordial World had no intention of suppressing geniuses.
In fact, this was indeed the case.
The Ancestor Hongjun of the Primordial World not only did not plan to suppress geniuses, but actually hoped someone would truly break through to Hunyuan Jin Xian.
In Ancestor Hongjun's eyes, Luo Fu was the one in the Primordial World with the greatest potential to break through to Hunyuan Jin Xian.
Earlier, Ancestor Hongjun had thought it was Luo Fu attempting to break through to Hunyuan Jin Xian.
Upon learning Luo Fu had failed to break through to Hunyuan Jin Xian, Ancestor Hongjun mourned for a long time and even mobilized Heavenly Dao power to investigate Luo Fu's condition.
Unfortunately, the Heavenly Dao's power seemed unable to reach the mysterious space where Luo Fu resided.
Afterwards, Luo Fu directly traveled to the Journey to the West World.
Thus, Ancestor Hongjun never probed into Luo Fu's condition.
Ancestor Hongjun never expected that when Luo Fu reappeared before him, he had already broken through to Hunyuan Jin Xian, with power far from ordinary and his realm directly elevated to Hunyuan peak.
Such a massive breakthrough filled Ancestor Hongjun with great joy.
Thus, he chose to ignore Luo Fu's insolence.
Within such a short time, successfully breaking through to Hunyuan Jin Xian and leaping directly to Hunyuan peak.
Regardless of whether Luo Fu had encountered some extraordinary fortune, in Ancestor Hongjun's eyes, Luo Fu was an absolute genius—and geniuses deserve special treatment.
The Ancestor Hongjun of the Journey to the West World feared that the emergence of a Hunyuan Jin Xian would interfere with his progress in devouring the Heavenly Dao; the Ancestor Hongjun of the Primordial World had no such concerns.
He would not suppress those who might break through to Hunyuan Jin Xian; instead, he would offer them even greater favors.
Because Ancestor Hongjun also hoped that the Primordial World would produce a Hunyuan Jin Xian.
The more, the better.
If not for certain restrictions that prevented Ancestor Hongjun from widely disseminating Hunyuan-layer transmissions, he would have surely spread every single transmission he knew that aided in breaking through to Hunyuan Jin Xian, helping the Primordial World produce more Hunyuan Jin Xian.
Originally, Ancestor Hongjun had not held great hope that the Primordial World would produce a Hunyuan Jin Xian so quickly.
Breaking through to Hunyuan Jin Xian is no easy matter—even geniuses and prodigies require sufficient time to elevate their understanding of the Dao to the Hunyuan layer.
This is even assuming they have a transmission to guide them.
