Chapter 1361

The three Dao of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity share many commonalities.

Having comprehended the Three Thousand Dao and then the Earth Dao, with Luo Fu's insight, grasping the Heaven Dao and Humanity Dao was not difficult.

Luo Fu had no interest in the Humanity Dao.

After comprehending the Earth Dao, the first Dao Luo Fu grasped was the Heaven Dao.

Yet, the nature of the Three Dao of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity did not satisfy Luo Fu.

Without a Hunyuan world as foundation, the power displayed by the Three Dao of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity was insufficient to satisfy Luo Fu.

Jia also possessed the Destiny Dao.

To Luo Fu, the Three Dao of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity without a world as foundation were truly mediocre.

Thus, Luo Fu created the Eternal Sword Array based on the Three Dao of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity.

Unlike the Three Dao of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity, the Eternal Sword Array had no weakness requiring reliance on a world.

Condense the Dao into Luo Fu, then gather it into a sword array.

It could freely transform the Dao, augment other Dao, and fully unleash the characteristics of each Dao.

Whether for attack or defense, the Eternal Sword Array was exceedingly perfect.

The Eternal Sword Array was created upon the foundation of the Three Dao of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity; in a sense, it could be regarded as a stronger, more suitable Heaven Dao for Luo Fu.

Therefore, the chaotic-colored barrier formed by the Eternal Sword Array, resembling a world barrier, was entirely understandable.

Boom!

Shortly after the chaotic-colored barrier coalesced, terrifying Heaven Dao power descended before the Legendary Clone's projection.

The violent Heaven Dao power poured down like a vast waterfall from the nine heavens, brutally striking the chaotic-colored barrier.

Each strand of Heaven Dao power within it carried the thunderous majesty of Heaven, as if intent on shattering all dangerous elements.

Hum!

The instant the Heaven Dao power fell, the chaotic-colored barrier shimmered with a halo.

Chaotic-colored light flowed across the shield.

Beneath the light, the Three Thousand Dao circulated rapidly according to fixed patterns.

Unlike the Heaven Dao, though the Eternal Sword Array was constructed from the Three Thousand Dao,

the Three Thousand Dao forming the Eternal Sword Array did not fully merge into a single unified Dao like the Heaven Dao; instead, each remained independent, merging only when needed to unleash greater power.

This allowed all characteristics of the Three Thousand Dao to be fully expressed.

The Heaven Dao, though also constructed from the Three Thousand Dao and towering above them,

had all its Three Thousand Dao fused into one, intricately balanced within the Heaven Dao.

This balance granted the Heaven Dao exceptional stability.

Through this equilibrium, even if one or several Dao became unbalanced, they could be restored within a certain time.

This balance was extremely vital for a Hunyuan world.

For a Hunyuan world, nothing was more important than balance and stability.

Only a stable and balanced world was suitable for the survival of all life.

Once a world became unbalanced, it might suit only certain lifeforms.

This would easily erase the diversity of the Hunyuan world.

For unowned Hunyuan worlds, imbalance was not beneficial.

Because imbalance meant adjustment was required.

Unowned Hunyuan worlds could only adjust themselves.

If adjustment failed, it could lead to the destruction of all life in the world, even affecting the world itself.

For a Hunyuan world, life was extremely important.

A Hunyuan world without life had no value and almost no possibility of progress.

Stability was paramount for unowned Hunyuan worlds.

Only through stable development could a future be possible.

Thus, most Heaven Dao were exceedingly balanced.

But balance also meant one thing: mediocrity.

The more balanced something was, the more mediocre it became.

The Heaven Dao did indeed balance the Three Thousand Dao to perfection, allowing them to flow in harmony without any imbalance.

But this also meant all characteristics of the Three Thousand Dao were neutralized and erased.

This state suited world development, but was unsuitable as an attack or defense technique.

Luo Fu chose not to directly transform the Three Dao of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity into his own technique not only because they required reliance on a Hunyuan world to unleash their power,

but also because the Three Dao of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity were too balanced—both attack and defense were too mediocre—another reason Luo Fu rejected them.

The Eternal Sword Array was created by Luo Fu upon the foundation of the Three Dao of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity.

It inherited the strengths of the Three Dao of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity, allowing the Three Thousand Dao to be fused into one.

It unleashed the full power of all Dao.

It also remedied the weakness of the Three Dao of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity: its magic power consumption.

The Three Dao of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity required reliance on a Hunyuan world because fully unleashing their power demanded immense magic power.

Since the Three Dao of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity were constructed from the Three Thousand Dao, activating them was equivalent to activating all Three Thousand Dao simultaneously.

Compared to activating a single Dao, this consumed over a thousand times more magic power.

Even a Hunyuan Da Luo Jinxian with boundless magic power could hardly sustain such immense consumption.

After all, the so-called boundless magic power of a Hunyuan Da Luo Jinxian merely meant rapid recovery after depletion—not that they truly possessed infinite magic power.

Of course, for most Hunyuan Dala Jin Xian, this weakness is not a weakness at all, because most Hunyuan Dala Jin Xian could never comprehend the true Three Paths of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity.

To comprehend the true Three Paths of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity, one must first master the Three Thousand Great Paths, then fuse them together to truly grasp the Three Paths of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity.

In the time it takes to comprehend the Three Thousand Great Paths, an ordinary Hunyuan Dala Jin Xian would long ago have fully understood their primary Great Path and reached the Heavenly Dao level, thereby breaking through directly to the Heavenly Dao level.

The Three Paths of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity, formed from the convergence of the Three Thousand Great Paths, can at best allow a Hunyuan Dala Jin Xian to stand equal to an ordinary Heavenly Dao-level expert.

But once one breaks through to the Heavenly Dao level, one can likewise stand equal to a Heavenly Dao-level expert.

Compared to comprehending the Three Thousand Great Paths, breaking through to the Heavenly Dao level requires far less time.

Therefore, this flaw of the Three Paths of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity is only a flaw for Luo Fu.

In comparison to the Three Paths of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity, the Three Thousand Great Paths forming the Eternal Sword Array flow among one another, mutually amplifying, as one unified whole, directly drawing power from the external world, drastically reducing Luo Fu's magic power consumption.

This allows Luo Fu, upon breaking through to Hunyuan Dala Jin Xian, to barely wield the Eternal Sword Array.

Furthermore, within the Eternal Sword Array, the Three Thousand Great Paths remain independently distinct, fused yet not fully merged.
