Chapter 969

For flying swords, speed is of utmost importance.

Strength, sharpness, and speed are all factors determining a flying sword's power.

Strength is primarily to prevent the flying sword from disintegrating.

To ensure the upper limit of the flying sword's power.

Speed and sharpness are the keys to a flying sword's lethality.

The function of sharpness needs no elaboration.

In all under heaven's divine arts, only speed cannot be broken.

This saying illustrates the importance of speed.

Under Luo Fu's control, the chaotic-colored Great Dao sword moved as lightly as flowing light, leaving only a lingering afterimage before appearing before the Sacred Beast Bai Hu, stabbing toward its head.

Although the chaotic-colored Great Dao sword was extremely fast, its speed did not exceed the Sacred Beast Bai Hu's perception.

The Five Directions Five Elements Small Heaven gathered the heavenly authority held by the Five Sacred Beasts; within this realm, the Sacred Beast Bai Hu's perception could spread to every corner. The trajectory of the chaotic-colored Great Dao sword lay entirely within the Sacred Beast Bai Hu's perception.

Clang!

Five sharp golden tiger claws suddenly lashed out through the air; before the chaotic-colored Great Dao sword even reached it, the Sacred Beast Bai Hu predicted its attack path and intercepted directly.

Five sharp golden tiger claws, exhaling cold radiance like solid matter, clamped down on the hurtling chaotic-colored Great Dao sword, attempting to seize it.

The sharp talons scraped against the blade of the chaotic-colored Great Dao sword, scattering countless tiny sword qi and golden sparks.

Since the chaotic-colored Great Dao sword's target was not the five sharp golden tiger claws, and since those claws were densely compressed with immense Great Dao power, this time the five sharp golden tiger claws suffered little damage.

At the moment of contact, the Jin Zhi Great Dao on the five sharp golden tiger claws attempted to entangle the Jian Zhi Great Dao on the chaotic-colored Great Dao sword.

Vast quantities of Jin Zhi Great Dao surged forth, attempting to drown out the Jian Zhi Great Dao on the chaotic-colored Great Dao sword.

Since the Great Dao's power could not surpass the Jian Zhi Great Dao, it would overwhelm it through sheer volume.

Compared to Luo Fu, the Sacred Beast Bai Hu, relying on the Five Directions Five Elements Great Array and fused with the combined power of all Five Sacred Beasts, possessed nearly infinite magic power.

Even consuming ten or a hundred times the amount of Great Dao power, the Sacred Beast Bai Hu could restore it instantly.

In this regard, Luo Fu was clearly inferior to the Sacred Beast Bai Hu.

Although the Sacred Beast Bai Hu did not employ the Five Elements Great Dao, he was not foolish enough to ignore any advantage. He sought a balanced battle, not one where he was one-sidedly suppressed.

Not employing the Five Elements Great Dao, the Sacred Beast Bai Hu had already held back.

If he did not use any advantage at all, he would merely be taking punishment.

Unfortunately, every movement of the Sacred Beast Bai Hu was fully perceived by Luo Fu.

In terms of magic power, to avoid revealing his true nature to Ancestor Hongjun, he could only retain it at the Quasi-Saint layer, but his Primordial Spirit realm required no deliberate concealment.

The Primordial Spirit realm, unlike aura or magic power, cannot be detected unless actively exposed—unless the realm gap is too vast.

Although Luo Fu had not yet broken through to become a Hunyuan Daoluo Jin Xian, his actual realm was not low. Ancestor Hongjun's methods could not penetrate Luo Fu's Primordial Spirit realm.

With Luo Fu's Primordial Spirit realm, if he wished, nearly half of the Primordial World could not escape his perception.

The mere Five Directions Five Elements Small Heaven could be easily covered.

Thus, in terms of perception, Luo Fu stood on a higher level.

In fact, the moment the Sacred Beast Bai Hu moved, Luo Fu had already discerned his attack trajectory.

With Luo Fu's Primordial Spirit realm, maneuvering the chaotic-colored Great Dao sword to avoid the five sharp golden tiger claws was no great challenge.
