Chapter 313

Mount Kunlun, Biyou Palace.

Tongtian Jiaozhu stared anxiously in the direction of Luo Fu, his Saintly aura surging continuously.

For a Saint like Tongtian Jiaozhu, rescuing Luo Fu had originally seemed a simple matter.

But now, as Luo Fu had done one astonishing thing after another,

Tongtian Jiaozhu felt a flicker of tension regarding rescuing him.

Yes.

Precisely tension.

Because Tongtian Jiaozhu realized that if Luo Fu faced the power of the Heavenly Dao this time, he might not be able to save him in time.

That was precisely why.

Thus, Tongtian Jiaozhu stirred his Saintly power, ready to act at any moment.

After all, Luo Fu was not merely his direct disciple; in some ways, he was more like his own son.

Naturally, Tongtian Jiaozhu did not wish any harm to come to his own son.

Whether it was Luo Fu just now unleashing Huan Yuan Da Luo power through Heavenly Dao forces, or now opening the Primordial World's Time Changhe, each act had long surpassed Tongtian Jiaozhu's expectations.

Never mind the rest.

Just the act of daring to open the Primordial World's Time Changhe had made Tongtian Jiaozhu sweat for his disciple.

After all, even Tongtian Jiaozhu himself dared not open the Time Changhe lightly, for time was a taboo in the Primordial World.

If Luo Fu faced the Heavenly Dao's backlash, Tongtian Jiaozhu might not even be able to save him.

Because the gap in power between him, Tongtian Jiaozhu, and the Heavenly Dao was still immense.

Thus, Tongtian was also deeply worried: if Luo Fu truly faced the Heavenly Dao's backlash, how should he himself act?

Should he step forward to stop the Heavenly Dao's attack on Luo Fu?

But if he did, it would not only be useless—it might also trap him within it.

He was a Saint, his true spirit anchored within the Heavenly Dao, immortal and indestructible.

But that applied only to other powerful beings; before the Heavenly Dao, his own life remained entirely in the Heavenly Dao's hands.

It was merely because the Heavenly Dao lacked its own wisdom and consciousness that Tongtian Jiaozhu did not feel overwhelming pressure.

But if he intervened to stop the Heavenly Dao from striking his disciple because of Luo Fu,

he too would be swept up by the Heavenly Dao's power—it was a rule of the Heavenly Dao's operation.

At best, he would be gravely wounded; at worst, he might die and perish.

Faced with this situation, Tongtian Jiaozhu's mind churned with thoughts—he did not know how to choose.

If he could save Luo Fu, Tongtian Jiaozhu would not hesitate at all.

But precisely because intervening against the Heavenly Dao's backlash could not save Luo Fu, that was why Tongtian Jiaozhu hesitated.

"Even if there is no result, if I do nothing while my disciple is in danger, then I, Tongtian, am unworthy to be a teacher." Tongtian Jiaozhu's eyes gleamed with resolve.

He had made his decision.

If the Heavenly Dao truly turned against Luo Fu, then he, Tongtian Jiaozhu, would spare no effort to stop it.

At this moment, Tongtian Jiaozhu had made this decision.

This was also his own Dao—the Jie Sect, seizing a thread of life from Heaven and Earth.

Though his disciple faced danger, there was still a thread of hope—whether Luo Fu could grasp it remained to be seen.

Yet regarding Luo Fu's opening of the Time Changhe, Tongtian could not guess what his disciple intended to do.

All he could say was:

After receiving the Three Pure Ones' legacy, as well as the Daos of Pangu and the Dragon Clan, Luo Fu's growth had already surpassed what any Saint could comprehend.

Otherwise, for any other person—even a Peerless Saint—the Saint could have deduced their intentions.

But with Luo Fu,

clearly, Tongtian Jiaozhu could not calculate it.

This was not because Tongtian and the other Two Pure Ones had used their Saintly power to veil Luo Fu's fate.

Though that did make it difficult for Saints to calculate Luo Fu's destiny, it had zero effect on events already unfolding.

Thus, this was entirely due to Luo Fu's own growth.

It had exceeded the limits of ordinary beings.

"Luo Fu…" Tongtian Jiaozhu murmured, "Congratulations—you have grown to this level. Perhaps in the future, you will surpass even your master."

For any other direct disciple, Tongtian Jiaozhu never believed such a thing possible.

But now, Luo Fu had earned his recognition.

In the future, his direct disciple would surely become a Huan Yuan Da Luo, and one who surpassed even this master.

Thinking of this,

Tongtian Jiaozhu smiled with satisfaction.

Not to mention anything else—having such a disciple was already a wonderful thing.

Suddenly,

"Hmm…" Tongtian Jiaozhu's eyes sharpened—he noticed the Two Western Saints heading toward Luo Fu's Tribulation Crossing.

"The Two Western Saints," Tongtian Jiaozhu murmured. "If so, then I shall go there myself—to see my disciple."

If the Two Western Saints intended to strike at Luo Fu, Tongtian Jiaozhu might not reach them in time.

So without hesitation, he stepped on the void, leaving Biyou Palace, and flew swiftly toward Luo Fu.

Of course, by normal logic, Luo Fu's open Tribulation Crossing made it impossible for the Two Western Saints to interfere—or even attempt to.

After all, even a Heavenly Dao Saint interfering in a Great Calamity would likely be swept up by the Heavenly Dao's power.

Although a Saint's true spirit merges into the Heavenly Dao and, to a certain extent, represents the Heavenly Dao, a Saint is, after all, not the Heavenly Dao in its entirety.

They still possess their own consciousness and aura.

Therefore, when a Saint makes a move and operates according to the rules of the Heavenly Dao, it will likewise bring the Law upon that Saint.

On this point, whether it is to save Luo Fu or to harm Luo Fu, it is all the same.

In any case.

During the Tribulation Crossing, it is impossible to make a move against Luo Fu.

Therefore, Saint Tongtian's reason was simply that he was too worried about Luo Fu, which is why he wanted to go to the place of the Tribulation Crossing.

The Two Saints of the West were merely a pretext for him to intervene.

In a certain sense, Tongtian Jiaozhu is also somewhat tsundere.

Jade Void Palace.

Regarding Luo Fu using the Heavenly Dao Lei Jie to erupt with the power of a Primordial Daluo, and Luo Fu's subsequent opening of the Changhe of the Primordial World.

As a Saint of the Heavenly Dao, Yuanshi Tianzun naturally perceived it clearly as well.

"Luo Fu." Yuanshi Tianzun said in a low voice.

This disciple of Tongtian Jiaozhu has once again exceeded expectations.

Because what Luo Fu is doing now, even he, as a Saint, may not necessarily be able to accomplish.

At the very least, opening the river of time and space—Yuanshi Tianzun could not possibly do such a thing.
