Chapter 885

The information in the entire Primordial World in one second might be more immense than the memories of a living being over a hundred million years.

If Ancestor Hongjun, like the Dao of Heaven, accepted all the information of the Primordial World without any Gu Ji, the only consequence would be that his Dao heart would be overwhelmed by the sheer volume of memories, turning him into something cold and mechanical, like the Dao of Heaven.

No living being would be willing to endure such a consequence.

Therefore, Ancestor Hongjun entrusted all the chaotic information of the Primordial World to the mechanical Dao of Heaven for processing, while he himself only reviewed and accepted the more important data.

The Journey to the West calamity is an extremely critical node.

It is critical not only for Buddhism, but equally so for Ancestor Hongjun.

This node is the final threshold for Ancestor Hongjun's attainment of the Dao.

Precisely because of this, over these years, Ancestor Hongjun has spent nearly all his time in seclusion, paying little attention to the Three Realms.

The Dao of Heaven conveyed the wager between Saint Zhunti and Saint Jieyin and Luo Fu to Ancestor Hongjun, but Ancestor Hongjun paid it no mind.

In Ancestor Hongjun's eyes, saints were merely slightly larger ants, let alone Luo Fu, who was not even a saint.

Although Luo Fu might very well be a variable beneath the Dao of Heaven, Ancestor Hongjun would not pay him much attention until Luo Fu became a Hunyuan Daoluojinxian.

Only by becoming a Hunyuan Daoluojinxian could he possibly threaten Ancestor Hongjun.

Yet Ancestor Hongjun never imagined that, shortly after he re-entered seclusion, Saint Zhunti and Saint Jieyin had already perished—and perished within the Chaos Void.
