Chapter 235

The premise is that a certain screening of aptitude is required, but compared to the Chan Sect's demands on aptitude, the Tongtian Jiaozhu's demands on aptitude were far fewer.

Fortunately it was so, otherwise Luo Fu's original desire to join the Jie Sect would have been an impossible matter.

But even so, the Jie Sect's many disciples were not the objects the Tongtian Jiaozhu paid the most attention to.

His several personal disciples were.

Whether it was Daoist Duobao, Jin Ling, Wudang, or Gui Ling — these four.

These were the objects the Tongtian Jiaozhu focused on cultivating at the time.

If it had been the Luo Fu of the past, the Tongtian Jiaozhu would not have spent too much thought on him either.

Because given Luo Fu's situation back then.

Even if the Tongtian Jiaozhu cultivated him desperately, constantly expounded the Dao, and he became a Great Luo Jinxian, that would almost have been the limit.

This would require the Tongtian Jiaozhu to spend a great deal of time expounding the Dao, and also grant him all manner of heavenly treasures, to be possible.

Under normal circumstances, why would a Heavenly Dao Saint bring such trouble upon himself?

Unless the other party were his own biological son, only then would it be possible.

Now, in the Tongtian Jiaozhu's eyes, Luo Fu was truly his own biological son.

Only, Luo Fu's situation did not trouble the Tongtian Jiaozhu — it was far too easy.

Previously the Tongtian Jiaozhu had even wanted to devote more thought to Luo Fu, but Luo Fu did not give the Tongtian Jiaozhu such an opportunity.

This made the Tongtian Jiaozhu sigh with emotion as well.

Having a disciple with such outstanding aptitude and comprehension was also a kind of trouble.

If Master Yuanshi Tianzun knew this was what was in the Tongtian Jiaozhu's mind, he would probably truly complain nonstop.

He, Yuanshi Tianzun, was still envious that the Tongtian Jiaozhu possessed such a disciple.

But Luo Fu had already become the Tongtian Jiaozhu's personal disciple, and Master Yuanshi Tianzun understood that this was an unchangeable fact.

The more outstandingly Luo Fu performed, the more uncomfortable Master Yuanshi Tianzun felt.

Back when Luo Fu was taken as a disciple by Tongtian, Master Yuanshi Tianzun had shown utter disdain.

A mere human disciple — just an occasional burst of accumulated effort, that's all.

Breaking through to become a Jin Xian should have been that human's limit.

After all, in the vast Primordial World, beings like the Luo Fu of back then were not one or two.

Many of them showed bursts of accumulated effort.

But those beings' moments of brilliance were limited to those times alone.

The original Luo Fu, in Master Yuanshi Tianzun's eyes, was precisely such an existence.

Of course, the present Master Yuanshi Tianzun understood that he had misjudged.

He could see what level his own disciples would reach in the future, but Luo Fu — Master Yuanshi Tianzun could not estimate him either.

Therefore, when a Heavenly Dao Saint takes on a personal disciple, aptitude must also pass muster.

Those with poor aptitude might be taken as disciples, but to become a personal disciple and receive the careful tutelage of a Heavenly Dao Saint — that was impossible.

Therefore, time alone could not produce a powerhouse.

Especially a powerhouse who reached the Great Luo Jinxian level, or even the Quasi-Saint layer.

Even less could time produce one.

A Saint might be able to manipulate time, but a cultivator in such an environment, if purely cultivating, would still be affected to some degree.

After all, one was within a Saint's own small world, or under the shroud of his power.

While the other was in the environment of the Primordial World.

In any case, the grade of the Primordial World was still higher than the grade of a world opened by a Saint.

A Heavenly Dao Saint was at the Primordial Chaos Great Luo level; the ancient god Pangu, who once opened the heavens and split the earth, might have already reached the Heavenly Dao level — and not an ordinary Heavenly Dao level at that.

Otherwise, how could he have opened the heavens and split the earth, creating the Primordial World?

The Primordial World could also withstand the emergence of one Heavenly Dao Saint after another.

If Pangu's strength had been insufficient, the world he opened would surely have had its own limits.

How could it have withstood the emergence of one Saint after another, and even the appearance of the Heavenly Dao itself?

Therefore, cultivating within the Primordial World also had its advantages.

If one purely cultivated within a Saint's small world, the effect on living beings would not be too favorable either.

Of course, for Luo Fu, he was merely listening to Master Yuanshi Tianzun expound the Dao, so that kind of effect was not significant.

Although Luo Fu had broken through to Taiyi Jin Xian, in Master Yuanshi Tianzun's view, as long as Luo Fu adapted outside for a short while, he could still very easily eliminate this aspect of deficiency.

And for Luo Fu, possessing max-level comprehension, eliminating this aspect of influence was an even easier matter.

Precisely because of this.

A living being could not constantly listen to a Saint expound the Dao, advancing within the Saint's expounding, yet have no contact with the outside world.

This would also have an enormous impact on the future of a being with outstanding aptitude.

Therefore, even those personal disciples of the Saints could not constantly listen to the Dao at the Saint's side.

They needed to cultivate within the Primordial World.

Therefore, even Saints did not excessively employ the power of time upon their personal disciples.

Luo Fu was merely listening to the Dao, so of course Master Yuanshi Tianzun had no elixir for this aspect.

The Tongtian Jiaozhu understood this point and did not stop it.

Otherwise, if there were any effect on his own disciple, the Tongtian Jiaozhu probably would not have agreed to Master Yuanshi Tianzun doing this.

For Luo Fu.

Regardless, this time listening to the Dao at Master Yuanshi Tianzun's place, the harvest was enormous.

Perhaps in the hearts of Master Yuanshi Tianzun and his own teacher, Saint Tongtian Jiaozhu, he was barely managing to bear the different Great Dao inheritances.

But only Luo Fu himself knew.

Possessing Heavenly Dao-level comprehension, comprehending these Great Dao inheritances was becoming easier and easier for him.

The Great Luo Dao and the Quasi-Saint Dao were rapidly digested by Luo Fu, becoming part of his own cultivation system.

Even the Dao of the Saints was changing at an incomprehensible speed.

This was still with Luo Fu's own strength being only at the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm; if his realm were stronger, then digesting the Dao of the Saints would also become easier.

He was not at all as Master Yuanshi Tianzun and Saint Tongtian Jiaozhu believed.

That he was barely accepting the Great Dao inheritance in this aspect.

"Little Master, what's wrong? Did this one say something wrong?" Little White looked at the lost-in-thought Luo Fu and said somewhat nervously.

He was afraid he had said something wrong, and then it would be over.

For Saints, the status of attendants like them was not considered high.

These words also brought Luo Fu back from his thoughts; he looked at the nervous Little White and smiled, "It's nothing, I just happened to think of some things."

"Alright, since you haven't left yet, let's leave together." Luo Fu patted the attendant Little White's shoulder.

"Yes, Little Master." Little White said repeatedly.

Being treated so well by a Saint in person, the attendant also expressed feeling overwhelmed by the favor.

As Luo Fu and the attendant Little White slowly left the Jade Void Palace, the Chan Sect personal disciples outside the Jade Void Palace all looked at Luo Fu walking out with surprised expressions.

Luo Fu coming here, they could guess what Luo Fu had come to do.

But now, how could he have come out after only such a short time?

Could it be that he didn't listen to the Dao at his Master's place?

As for only listening for such a short time before coming out.

Even those Chan Sect disciples who were jealous of Luo Fu would not think so.

In the Three Sects competition, Luo Fu had truly fought out his reputation; regarding Luo Fu's talent and strength, the Chan Sect personal disciples would not doubt it either.

If it were before participating in the Three Sects competition, the many Chan Sect personal disciples would have long since said all kinds of unpleasant things.

Finally.

Guang Chengzi, Chi Jingzi, and others shook their heads.

This Jie Sect personal disciple Luo Fu, whatever strange things he did in the future, were all possible.

……………………

Ten years later, Mount Yunlong.

After Luo Fu left Master Yuanshi Tianzun's dojo, the Jade Void Palace, he returned to his own dojo and entered cultivation.

He did not immediately head to Laozi's Eight Sceneries Palace.
