Chapter 305: Slaying the Tian Dao Shengren! The Chaotic Demon God Awakens from the Changhe!

Great Luo Jinxian, eternal and indestructible.

It was a transformation of both soul and body.

In a slightly weaker world, the power level of a Great Luo Jinxian could contract past and future, all fate, and achieve complete transcendence—that was what it meant to be a Great Luo Jinxian.

But because the rules of the Primordial World were too rigid.

Especially time was a taboo in the Primordial World, so not even Great Luo Jinxian, let alone Tian Dao Shengren, could touch the power of time.

To touch it lightly would invite backlash from Tian Dao's power.

As Tian Dao Shengren, they could not possibly oppose Tian Dao's power.

If they suffered backlash, they might perish.

Don't think that because Tian Dao Shengren's true spirits are entrusted to Tian Dao, they are immortal.

When other Hunyuan Great Luo killed a Tian Dao Shengren, the Tian Dao Shengren could use Tian Dao's power to resurrect.

But if Tian Dao itself wanted to kill a Tian Dao Shengren, since the saint's true spirit was entrusted within Tian Dao, killing them would be incredibly easy.

This was utterly unacceptable to the Three Pure Ones and many other saints, yet those who had already attained the Dao had no way to stop it.

What comforted the Three Pure Ones and other saints was that Tian Dao, unlike living beings, had no soul or wisdom of its own—it was more a set of rules, the rules of the world.

Thus, even though the saints' true spirits were entrusted to Tian Dao, it didn't greatly affect the Three Pure Ones and others.

This kind of impact was still acceptable to the Three Pure Ones and other Tian Dao Shengren.

After all, if Tian Dao truly possessed wisdom and their life and death were controlled by another, it would be the greatest joke imaginable for a saint.

For then, becoming a Tian Dao Shengren would bring them no benefit, but instead bind and imprison everything they were.

How could a saint possibly accept that?

In truth, although Tian Dao was merely a set of rules and had no effect on saints, some saints had already developed different thoughts.

That was, was there any possibility of escaping Tian Dao?

Normally, the difficulty of escaping was far greater than attaining Hunyuan Great Luo.

After all, Tian Dao itself would not allow Primordial World beings to come and go as they pleased.

Though Tian Dao had no wisdom, it had fundamental operational rules.

These rules, when a Tian Dao Shengren entrusted their true spirit to Tian Dao and gained the ability to die and be reborn, made them part of Tian Dao.

Not like before, when they were independent individuals.

If they were part of Tian Dao, how could they be allowed to depart again?

Becoming a Tian Dao Shengren was, after all, a matter of both advantage and disadvantage.

The advantage: even powerful Hunyuan Great Luo might not be able to kill them.

But the disadvantage: their cultivation speed, and especially their chance to break through to Hunyuan, would be infinitely reduced—breaking through to Hunyuan was nearly impossible.

As part of Tian Dao, how could it allow you to transcend Tian Dao?

In fact, Saint Tongtian had long pondered how to escape Tian Dao.

Yes, the famed master of the Jie Sect had once held this thought himself, but he realized how impossibly difficult it would be to accomplish.

With his own strength, it was utterly unachievable.

As for his brothers, they too had entrusted their true spirits to Tian Dao—what help could they offer him?

On the contrary, if all three acted together against Tian Dao, Tian Dao's wrath would be more than these Tian Dao Shengren could bear.

Thus, gradually, Saint Tongtian let go of this idea he once held.

Until Saint Tongtian met Luo Fu.

The human Luo Fu—initially, Saint Tongtian naturally recognized his talent and insight; seeing Luo Fu's innate gift for sword Dao, Saint Tongtian gladly took him as a new direct disciple.

As time passed, Luo Fu's talent and insight grew ever more astonishing, even allowing him, at the Taiyi Jinxian level, to comprehend the Great Dao legacies of Hunyuan Great Luo.

Under these circumstances, Saint Tongtian began to wonder: if his disciple could attain the Dao and become a Hunyuan Great Luo, might his disciple help him escape Tian Dao?

Of course, this was merely a passing thought of Saint Tongtian's.

Whether his disciple could achieve it was uncertain, but at least there was some hope in Luo Fu.

At least this hope was not faint—it held a glimmer of life.

Precisely because of this.

In the Primordial World, the power of time was unmovable, insurmountable.

Not even the Ancestor Hongjun, who had merged with the Dao, dared to attempt such a thing to any significant degree.

Tian Dao backlash was no joke.

This differed from some Xuanhuan Worlds.

In those Xuanhuan Worlds, powerful cultivators could easily reverse the flow of the Changhe and condense their past and future.

Thus, in the Primordial World, Great Luo Jinxian were more about refining themselves.

All great power returned to the self.

Thus, even if these Primordial World Great Luo Jinxian entered other worlds with different systems, they could still unleash their peak combat power.

Know that in some worlds, the strong relied on the world's power to manifest their strength.

For example, in the Super God World, the Dark Dimension and the Supreme Gods derived their power entirely from the Super God World's rule system.

If those Super God deities, like Kesa and others, entered another world, due to differences in world rule systems,

their own strength would be greatly weakened.

Thus, like Luo Fu, cultivators from the Primordial World returned all great power to the self.

Now Luo Fu, under the principle of returning all great power to the self, wanted to see how much more he could accomplish in the Primordial World.

This was the first step on Luo Fu's own Dao path.

But to easily open the Changhe of the Primordial World was no easy task, and one must be prepared to face Tian Dao's backlash.

Regarding this situation, Luo Fu had already made some preparations beforehand.

"Boom…"

Above the heavens, those black lightning bolts emitted a continuously undulating sound.

"Roar…"

Immediately after, accompanied by a tremendous roar, a black giant dragon several thousand zhang long slowly drilled out from the sea of lightning of the World-Destroying Thunder.
