Chapter 1339: Luo Fu in Ancestor Hongjun
As long as one breaks through to become a Hunyuan Daoluoxian, one will immediately gain eternal life.
More importantly, most living beings must undergo countless yuanhui of arduous cultivation to break through to Hunyuan Daoluoxian.
Countless yuanhui, if converted into years, is still an extraordinarily massive number.
Therefore, for Hunyuan Daoluoxian, yuanhui is the most basic unit of measurement.
For Hunyuan Daoluoxian, one yuanhui is equivalent to just one day for ordinary living beings.
Having just been born for a few yuanhui, when converted to ordinary living beings, equals having just been born for a few days.
Having just been born for a few days, one cannot even walk, let alone break through realms.
Thus, even for those naturally born as Hunyuan Daoluoxian with extraordinary origins, breaking from the initial stage of Hunyuan Daoluoxian to its peak requires at least thousands or even tens of thousands of yuanhui.
Yet Luo Fu spent only a few yuanhui.
This speed is countless times more terrifying than that of any Hunyuan Daoluoxian in heaven.
Had Ancestor Hongjun known Luo Fu had broken directly from Quasi-Saint Realm to Hunyuan Daoluoxian peak, he would have been even more shocked.
Although Luo Fu had merely vanished for a long time.
But Ancestor Hongjun did not believe Luo Fu had broken directly from Quasi-Saint Realm to Hunyuan Daoluoxian peak in such a short span.
From the moment Luo Fu vanished from Ancestor Hongjun's sight to the moment he reappeared before him.
Only a few hundred years had passed.
A few hundred years is insufficient even for a Hunyuan Daoluoxian to consolidate their realm, let alone break through further.
Even in Ancestor Hongjun's eyes, Luo Fu was a prodigy rare even after countless yuanhui—he would not believe Luo Fu had broken directly from Quasi-Saint Realm to Hunyuan Daoluoxian peak in just a few hundred years.
Not just Ancestor Hongjun—even Luo Fu himself had not expected to break directly from Quasi-Saint layer to Hunyuan Daoluoxian peak in such a short time.
It can only be said that simultaneously triggering the Three Thousand Great Dao and achieving dual breakthroughs of Primordial Spirit and physical body was truly against heaven.
Among all the history of the Chaos Void, Luo Fu is likely the only one who attained comprehension of the Three Thousand Great Dao while still at Quasi-Saint layer.
Perhaps in the history of the Chaos Void, there have been prodigies who comprehended all Three Thousand Great Dao to Hunyuan level or even Dao-level.
But when they comprehended the Three Thousand Great Dao, their realm was at least Hunyuan Daoluoxian.
Comprehending all Three Thousand Great Dao to Hunyuan level is no easy feat.
Luo Fu was able to comprehend the Three Thousand Great Dao to Hunyuan level in such a short time because he cheated.
Normal living beings, no matter how gifted, could never possess Dao-level ultimate comprehension while still at Quasi-Saint layer.
Between Dao-level and Quasi-Saint, there is a full gap of three layers.
If including Half-Step Dao-level, the gap becomes four full layers.
Not four minor levels, but four major layers.
These layers differ immensely from one another.
Between each layer, the difference is at least a thousandfold.
The gap of four layers is no less than a trillionfold.
Possessing comprehension a trillionfold beyond one's current layer—unless cheating, normal living beings could never achieve this.
Thus, Luo Fu was able to break directly to Hunyuan Daoluoxian peak when ascending to Hunyuan Daoluoxian.
Because Hunyuan Daoluoxian accomplished a miracle.
A miracle never before seen in the history of the Chaos Void.
Such a miracle is beyond even Ancestor Hongjun's imagination.
Therefore, Ancestor Hongjun does not believe Luo Fu broke directly to Hunyuan Daoluoxian peak in merely a few hundred years.
In Ancestor Hongjun's view, the few hundred years Luo Fu vanished were almost certainly spent in some Secret Realm with abnormal time flow, where he broke through to Hunyuan Daoluoxian and then gradually cultivated to Hunyuan Daoluoxian peak.
Of course, this speculation does not diminish Luo Fu's standing in Ancestor Hongjun's eyes.
Because Ancestor Hongjun can sense the temporal traces on Luo Fu's body.
Ancestor Hongjun speculated Luo Fu might have entered a Secret Realm with abnormal time flow precisely because he sensed strong temporal energy on Luo Fu.
Clearly, in the past, Luo Fu had an extremely close connection with the Changhe.
Such prolonged, intimate contact with the Changhe fits the conditions of a time Secret Realm.
Ancestor Hongjun did not know that the figure before him was merely a projection of Luo Fu's Legendary Avatar.
The Legendary Avatar is formed from the anchor point of the Changhe, a being within the Changhe itself.
As a being within the Changhe, one naturally carries the Changhe's energy.
One can only say Ancestor Hongjun's imagination is overly rich.
One who can sense the temporal energy on Luo Fu's body can also estimate Luo Fu's approximate age.
The passage of time leaves faint, nearly imperceptible temporal traces on a being.
Through these temporal traces, one can roughly judge how much time has passed for the being.
Of course, this method only yields an approximation, not an exact time.
Ancestor Hongjun can sense that the time elapsed on Luo Fu's body does not exceed twenty yuanhui.
This means Luo Fu spent no more than ten yuanhui in the time Secret Realm.
In less than ten yuanhui, he not only broke through to Hunyuan Daoluoxian but also cultivated to Hunyuan Daoluoxian peak.
Such cultivation speed cannot even be described by the word "prodigy."
From the tone of the Legendary Avatar's projection, Ancestor Hongjun could tell Luo Fu had come with ill intent.
Yet Ancestor Hongjun did not care.
In Ancestor Hongjun's view, the projection's attitude was not problematic—merely somewhat arrogant.
As a prodigy, Luo Fu has the right to be arrogant.
Ancestor Hongjun paid little heed to Luo Fu's attitude.
In age, Ancestor Hongjun had outlived Luo Fu by countless times over.
Countless eons of experience had polished Ancestor Hongjun's disposition and cunning to the point of utter equanimity.
The faint impertinence in Luo Fu's words meant nothing to Ancestor Hongjun.
In fact, Luo Fu's attitude even gave Ancestor Hongjun a faint sense of relief.
Undoubtedly, the tone of the legendary avatar's projection showed not the slightest courtesy to Ancestor Hongjun.
And such a tone meant defiance.
This was something Ancestor Hongjun had never encountered before.
Since the defeat and death of the Demon Patriarch Luo Hou, no one in the Primordial World had dared to defy Ancestor Hongjun—at least not openly.
Ancestor Hongjun was not entirely satisfied with this.
The strong must dare to defy.
The weak indeed revere the stronger.
But to become strong, one must always harbor a spirit of defiance.
