Chapter 1341

Pan Gu's death was a secret Luo Fu had always wanted to know.

While refining the remains of the Chaotic Divine Demons, Luo Fu had briefly traversed time and space, witnessing Pan Gu slaying countless Chaotic Divine Demons.

Slaying Chaotic Divine Demons required little effort from Pan Gu.

Even Dao-level powerhouses were as weak as ants to Pan Gu.

Such a powerful being, Luo Fu did not believe he would perish merely from creating the Primordial World.

The Primordial World was at best a deeply rooted Hunyuan world; such a world might be beyond the reach of ordinary Dao-level powerhouses, but Pan Gu, as a half-step Great Dao-level powerhouse, could easily create it.

Even if the Primordial World reached its peak, the combined power of the entire world would amount to no more than that of a half-step Great Dao-level powerhouse, on par with Pan Gu.

Pan Gu had no reason to sacrifice his life merely to create a world equal to his own level.

No one who cultivates to the half-step Great Dao-level is a fool. How could Pan Gu sacrifice himself for the mere Primordial World?

Thus, in Luo Fu's view, Pan Gu's death was certainly not that simple.

Compared to dying from creating the Primordial World, Luo Fu believed more strongly that Pan Gu perished from failing to break through to the Great Dao-level.

Of course, this was merely Luo Fu's speculation.

Of all beings in the Primordial World, only Ancestor Hongjun knew the truth behind Pan Gu's death.

Pan Gu's death was undoubtedly the greatest secret of the Primordial World.

If the Primordial World truly held any other secret, it must be tied to Pan Gu's death.

Therefore, while Luo Fu appeared to be asking about Pan Gu's death, he was in fact asking about the Primordial World's secret.

"Pan Gu's death? Your guess is correct—there are indeed many secrets behind it. But before I answer you, I want to know: what is it you truly wish to discuss with me this time?"

Upon hearing Luo Fu inquire about Pan Gu's death, Ancestor Hongjun's eyes flashed with a hint of sharp light.

He had not expected Luo Fu's question to be this.

As Luo Fu suspected, Pan Gu's death indeed held many secrets.

And of all beings in the Primordial World, only he knew them best.

Yet Ancestor Hongjun had no intention of answering Luo Fu directly.

This secret was not for just anyone to know.

To learn this secret, one must possess sufficient strength.

Though Luo Fu had reached the peak of Hunyuan Daoluoxian, in Ancestor Hongjun's eyes, Luo Fu's strength was still insufficient to know this secret.

Thus, Ancestor Hongjun did not directly reveal the secret of Pan Gu's death, but shifted the topic to the second matter Luo Fu had mentioned.

He very much wanted to know what Luo Fu wished to discuss with him.

Once this matter was settled, it would be clear whether Luo Fu had the qualifications to know the secret of Pan Gu's death.

Ancestor Hongjun's gaze locked directly onto the projection of the Legend Avatar, awaiting its reply.

Sensing Ancestor Hongjun's gaze, Luo Fu instantly understood the hidden meaning behind his words.

Learning Pan Gu's secret was not impossible—but one must prove strength; only with his approval could one earn the right to know Pan Gu's secret.

At their level, many things could be deduced with just a slight calculation.

Though Ancestor Hongjun did not know precisely what Luo Fu wished to discuss, from the tone of the Legend Avatar's projection and Luo Fu's character, he could guess at least some of it.

From Ancestor Hongjun's tone, Luo Fu also sensed that he had already guessed part of the purpose behind this visit to the Purple Cloud Palace.

Without further concealment, Luo Fu directly stated his other purpose for this journey.

Boom!

A powerful aura erupted from the Legend Avatar's projection, its gaze locking onto Ancestor Hongjun as it spoke slowly, word by word:

"I came to the Purple Cloud Palace not only to ask about Pan Gu's secret, but also to discuss with you—whether, henceforth, you, as the Dao Ancestor, will cease meddling in the Primordial World, especially no longer instigating so-called Calamity Cycles!"

The blunt tone, coupled with the unleashed aura, revealed Luo Fu's stance unmistakably.

His purpose was not merely to negotiate—it was to force, to compel Ancestor Hongjun to yield and never again interfere lightly in the Primordial World.

"Cease meddling in the Primordial World? Cease instigating Calamity Cycles? It seems you know quite a bit about its secrets."

Hearing the Legend Avatar's projection's blunt tone and unmasked aura, Ancestor Hongjun's expression grew slightly colder.

He did indeed admire Luo Fu, but that did not mean he would tolerate Luo Fu's brazen disrespect.

Ancestor Hongjun had originally assumed Luo Fu had come to the Purple Cloud Palace to challenge him, testing his current strength.

But he had not expected Luo Fu to not only challenge him, but to force him to bow.

For such an act, even if Ancestor Hongjun's nature were gentle, he could not remain unmoved.

No one wishes to be forced into submission.

Not even if that person is someone Ancestor Hongjun greatly admires.

The moment the Legend Avatar's projection spoke, Ancestor Hongjun had already decided—he would give Luo Fu a lesson.
