Chapter 3

But I can't.

As a Xuan Immortal, Luo Fu believed that if there were any issues with himself, he would know instantly.

Clearly, at this moment, his body felt excellent, with not a single problem.

Therefore, the voice he just heard could not possibly be an auditory hallucination.

"Ding, Max-Level Comprehension System activated successfully. Proceed to initiate…?"

The voice repeated once again in Luo Fu's ear.

This confirmed one thing for Luo Fu: he had indeed heard a voice, and it was telling him his golden finger had arrived.

That was the Max-Level Comprehension System.

"My golden finger has arrived." Luo Fu's expression was stunned.

Just moments ago, he had merely sighed in passing, harboring no hope at all.

Because in his understanding, if his post-transmigration self were to have a golden finger, it should have appeared long ago, not waited until now.

But now, clearly, the golden finger had appeared.

According to what he just heard, the golden finger had been accumulating energy all along, which was why it had never activated.

Only when the golden finger's energy was fully completed did it manifest at this moment.

"Initiate, of course initiate." Hearing the voice in his ear, Luo Fu did not hesitate, murmuring softly.

Without a golden finger, Luo Fu as a human would face immense difficulty in growing stronger in this Primordial World.

If he walked upon the Primordial Earth,

It would be perfectly normal to perish from a single misstep.

Perhaps only after becoming a Great Luo Jinxian could one barely possess self-preservation capabilities on the Primordial Earth.

Only upon becoming a Semi-Sage did one truly gain the chance to master one's own fate.

The original Luo Fu of this world's human race may have harbored such thoughts in his heart as he journeyed toward Mount Kunlun.

"Ding, Max-Level Comprehension System initiating… countdown: 10, 9…"

A countdown echoed in his ear.

When the countdown ended completely, the golden finger system fully activated, and all related system information surfaced one by one in Luo Fu's mind.

That was information regarding the system's abilities and its applications.

Moments passed.

Luo Fu slowly opened his eyes, a hint of realization in them.

Regarding the use of the Max-Level Comprehension System, Luo Fu now felt he had become familiar with it.

The function of his golden finger was simple: to grant him max-level comprehension.

Just how terrifying max-level comprehension truly was,

No one knew.

Were the Three Pure Ones' comprehensions excellent? Could they become Heavenly Dao Saints? No one would deny the Three Pure Ones' comprehension.

Was Ancestor Hongjun's comprehension excellent? Could he become the famed Ancestor of the Primordial World? Hongjun's comprehension must have been extraordinary.

Was Pangu's comprehension good? Could he slay three thousand Chaotic Demons and ultimately cleave heaven and earth? Pangu's comprehension must have been exceptional.

Comprehension, to some extent, determined a living being's upper limit.

Now, with the Max-Level Comprehension System, Luo Fu's comprehension had reached an inconceivable realm.

Yet this golden finger still had one slight limitation affecting Luo Fu: his own cultivation level.

The stronger his cultivation, the more terrifying the power released by max-level comprehension would become.

Perhaps this was the system's restriction on Luo Fu.

Otherwise, with Luo Fu's current Xuan Immortal level, he likely could not bear true max-level comprehension.

"Max-level comprehension." Luo Fu whispered softly.

At this moment, Luo Fu felt utterly transformed from his former self.

He could now effortlessly crush his past self.

Remember, this was only the very beginning of max-level comprehension's activation.

"The Golden Core Path I cultivated in the past, and the cultivation methods passed down by Saint Tongtian—before, I couldn't understand many parts of them. Now, I see these two techniques as riddled with flaws, with countless areas ripe for improvement." Luo Fu murmured to himself.

Even without fully utilizing the Max-Level Comprehension System's power,

His own comprehension had reached an extremely terrifying level.

"If I combine the Golden Core Path and the methods passed down by Saint Tongtian, could I create an even stronger technique?" Luo Fu's eyes gleamed.

If he spoke these words aloud, no one would believe him.

The Golden Core Path was created by the Saint Laozi, tailored for human cultivation.

Naturally, this technique could not compare to Laozi's own Taiqing Divine Art.

The methods passed down by Tongtian Jiaozhu were truly basic techniques.

Only core disciples might receive direct transmission from Tongtian Jiaozhu.

But even as basic techniques, they were still created by a Saint.

Even a Semi-Sage would find it nearly impossible to revise such a technique.

But for some reason,

Luo Fu, with the Max-Level System, felt he could fuse these two techniques.

If Luo Fu truly succeeded, it would mean his comprehension had reached an inconceivable level.

Comprehension, to some extent, was predetermined at birth.

Even if the Three Pure Ones became Saints, their comprehension likely would not increase much.

This is different from the soul and the true spirit.

But if one could truly alter the Saint's cultivation art at will, then Luo Fu's current comprehension might be terrifyingly extreme.

"Let's give it a try."

With a thought, Luo Fu made his decision.

How exactly does my cheat work? Just try it and find out.

In any case, it would have no negative effect on Luo Fu.

Immediately, Luo Fu sat cross-legged, pushing his true spirit to its utmost limit.

His max-level comprehension was fully unleashed at this moment.

Boom—

Instantly.

Luo Fu felt as if his brain had exploded; his understanding of the Jin Dan Dao and the foundational cultivation art passed down by the Tongtian Jiaozhu surged to its peak.

And it kept pushing forward.

One cultivation art after another was being practiced, combined, and transformed continuously.

In normal circumstances, creating a cultivation art requires countless trials, endless refinement, and painstaking polishing before success is possible.

Even a Saint might find it easy to create low-level cultivation arts, but crafting one suited to oneself is no simple matter.

Yet now—

Luo Fu was about to create a terrifying cultivation art surpassing his own realm.

It combined the Jin Dan Dao with fragments of the mystery of the Shangqing Sacred Scripture.

Runes flickered in Luo Fu's mind; the flame of wisdom burned fiercely within his mind.

Thus, as time passed—

A brand-new cultivation art, suited for the human race and for Luo Fu himself—

Was slowly being born.
