Chapter 60

As a Saint, Saint Tongtian could make certain calculations about the future, so he could vaguely grasp its general course; becoming a Saint was also an exceedingly difficult endeavor.

Even he and the other Saints did not attain their status through self-validated Dao; they relied far more on Heavenly Dao merit.

Only then could they ultimately become the current Hunyuan—the so-called Heavenly Dao Saints.

Perhaps only their teacher, Ancestor Hongjun, had truly achieved independent validation of Hunyuan.

Of course, Saint Tongtian had no such thought of independently validating Hunyuan.

At most, his own direct disciple would rely on Heavenly Dao merit to validate the legendary Sainthood.

"Luo Fu, you are excellent." Saint Tongtian smiled broadly.

The feeling of having a worthy successor was an exceedingly delightful thing for this Saint.

It seemed even more worthy of joy than his own cultivation and growth.

In response to Saint Tongtian's praise, Luo Fu smiled faintly, showing no trace of arrogance.

He, possessing only Jin Xian strength, knew that in today's Primordial World, he was merely a slightly stronger cannon fodder.

Only upon becoming a Pre-Saint might he barely gain the right to stand in this world.

But compared to a Saint, a Pre-Saint was still an ant.

Thus, Luo Fu, with only Jin Xian strength, harbored no sense of self-satisfaction whatsoever.

Luo Fu, who understood the true scale of the world, knew his current strength was merely the beginning.

Even if he possessed some golden finger, what use would it be if he were killed along the path of growth?

Watching Luo Fu's faint smile, Saint Tongtian's eyes gleamed, his lips curling slightly upward, growing even more satisfied.

This direct disciple of his met all of Saint Tongtian's tastes in every respect.

"Luo Fu, do you know which aspects of cultivation I excel in?" Saint Tongtian said solemnly to his disciple.

For a direct disciple like this, Saint Tongtian would offer thorough guidance.

This was entirely different from how he treated some Jiejiaowai Sect disciples or ordinary disciples.

After all, the Jie Sect had countless disciples; if Saint Tongtian guided each one individually, would he even have time to rest?

"Which cultivation paths do I excel in?" Luo Fu's mind flashed with thoughts, and finally he spoke slowly.

"The Dao of the Sword, the Dao of Heaven and Earth, and the Great Dao of Power…"

"Hmm…" Saint Tongtian glanced at Luo Fu in surprise.

The Dao of the Sword and the Dao of Heaven and Earth were not overly unexpected, but the Great Dao of Power was slightly surprising.

"Luo Fu, why did you guess this?" Saint Tongtian asked curiously.

"Through your usual teachings, I sensed your profound cultivation in the Dao of the Sword."

"The Dao of Heaven and Earth—you founded the Jie Sect, severing a thread of life from Heaven and Earth; you must have studied this Dao deeply."

"As for the Great Dao of Power, legend says that when the Primordial Giant Pan Gu perished, you were one of the manifestations of his Primordial Spirit; Pan Gu was a cultivator of the Great Dao of Power, so I surmised you must have some insight into it."

Luo Fu slowly voiced his thoughts.

In truth, Luo Fu also believed Saint Tongtian excelled in one other area: the Dao of Arrays.

But since Saint Tongtian had not yet demonstrated it, Luo Fu chose not to speculate further.

"Hah! Luo Fu, you're right—you're clever," Saint Tongtian laughed.

His disciple, though human and perhaps lacking in physical aptitude, had compensated for that deficiency with exceptional spiritual aptitude.

"The Dao of the Sword is the cultivation path I excel in; I once used this Dao to slay countless Primordial World ferocious beasts."

"The Dao of Heaven and Earth—I, through some of Primordial Giant Pan Gu's legacies, ultimately created the Shangqing Saint Art."

"As for the Great Dao of Power, it is not truly my strength; I do possess fragments of Pan Gu's legacy touching upon it, but not deeply."

"Compared to the Great Dao of Power, I am far more skilled in the Dao of Arrays."
