Chapter 984: The Key to Becoming Hunyuan Da Luo!

The power of the great array, judged by its profundity, is software.

Software determines the upper limit of the great array.

Second, examine the array core—it belongs to hardware.

Hardware sets the lower limit of the great array.

Even if the software is immensely powerful, without matching hardware, it cannot fully unleash its power.

Conversely, even if the software is weak, sufficient hardware can still produce remarkable power.

The Authority of Heaven's Dao is undoubtedly an extremely powerful array core.

It is at least of the Hunyuan layer.

After all, whoever masters the Authority of Heaven's Dao can become a Saint or Sub-Saint.

The Authority of Heaven's Dao is the key to becoming a Saint or Sub-Saint.

Facing the spreading Jin Guang, Luo Fu's expression did not change at all, as if he did not care that Jin Guang would destroy the sword wall.

Under Bai Hu's relentless infusion of Heaven's Dao energy, Jin Guang enveloped the sword wall in merely a few breaths.

A terrifying suppression force acted upon the sword wall.

Instantly, the power of the Illusion Dao was entirely dispelled.

Along with the Illusion Dao, countless illusory chaotic-colored Dao swords vanished.

The dense sword wall was reduced to only a dozen chaotic-colored Dao swords.

This meant that the chaotic-colored Dao swords Bai Hu had just destroyed already amounted to nearly half of what Luo Fu could condense.

Bai Hu could effortlessly destroy eight chaotic-colored Dao swords; the remaining dozen would not take much effort to obliterate if Bai Hu wished.

Zhoop! Zhoop! Zhoop!

As before, dark-golden colossal claw beams shot from Bai Hu's tiger paws, slashing toward the dozen chaotic-colored Dao swords.

The dozen chaotic-colored Dao swords, under Luo Fu's deliberate control, were spread across all directions of the sword wall.

It was not easy for Bai Hu's dark-golden colossal claw beams to strike each chaotic-colored Dao sword.

Yet Bai Hu did not care about magic power consumption; the dark-golden colossal claw beams, within the Jin Guang, moved like fish in water—unimpeded by any suppression from the Hunyuan layer and encountering no resistance.

No matter the distance, the dark-golden colossal claw beams suffered no depletion.

One after another, dark-golden colossal claw beams shot from Bai Hu's paws like rain, following precise trajectories to sever the dozen chaotic-colored Dao swords.

Trapped by the expanding Jin Guang, the dozen chaotic-colored Dao swords had nowhere to flee and remained where they were.

They continuously erupted sword light, slicing apart the incoming dark-golden colossal claw beams.

If this continued, the remaining dozen could hold out for only a few hundred breaths before being slowly worn away.

This was still the result of Bai Hu holding back.

If Bai Hu wished, the moment Jin Guang enveloped the sword wall, the remaining dozen chaotic-colored Dao swords would have been crushed.

Watching the sword light of the dozen chaotic-colored Dao swords gradually dim, Bai Hu's eyes held a trace of helplessness.

He had not yet had enough of fighting.

But the gap between Luo Fu and him, after being empowered by the Five Directions Five Elements Array, was simply too vast.

Even if he deliberately held back, Luo Fu still could not endure long.

Of course, the main reason was that, due to his low realm, Bai Hu had poor control over his own power.

A single misstep caused excessive outbursts, turning an evenly matched battle into one-sided domination.

If Bai Hu could control his power more precisely, he could suppress his strength to match Luo Fu's level, and their battle would not have ended so quickly.

Unfortunately, there were no such "what-ifs."

One after another, dark-golden colossal claw beams flew from Bai Hu's twin paws.

Bai Hu did not deliberately reduce the power of the dark-golden colossal claw beams to prolong the fight.

The outcome of his battle with Luo Fu was already visible; prolonging it further would be meaningless.

Of course, Bai Hu also did not deliberately increase the power of the dark-golden colossal claw beams to end the fight sooner.

Facing the imminent end of his battle with Luo Fu, Bai Hu chose to let things unfold naturally, following the previous rhythm, slowly wearing down the dozen chaotic-colored Dao swords.

Then he would utterly crush Luo Fu.

Yet Bai Hu did not notice that, as the dark-golden colossal claw beams continuously slashed at the remaining dozen chaotic-colored Dao swords,

An invisible force was slowly enveloping the expanding Jin Guang, centered on the dozen chaotic cores.

Under this force, the expansion speed of the Jin Guang decreased imperceptibly.

No, it was not that the speed decreased.

It was that a portion of the expanding Jin Guang had been swallowed by an unknown force.

Not only Jin Guang—the dark-golden colossal claw beams, severed by sword light, dissipated much faster than before.

As if an invisible force were devouring the dark-golden colossal claw beams.

Bai Hu should have noticed these changes.

With the Five Directions Five Elements Array's empowerment, every change within the Five Directions Five Elements Microcosm escaped Bai Hu's perception.

But this time, for some reason, Bai Hu sensed absolutely no change.

This invisible force was, of course, deployed by Luo Fu.

Bai Hu failed to sense it because Luo Fu had already penetrated most of the Five Directions Five Elements Array's mysteries, subtly influencing it through the Dao Sword Array and clouding part of Bai Hu's perception.

As Jin Guang and dark-golden colossal claw beams were consumed in vast quantities, faint glimmers began to glow within the dozen chaotic-colored Dao swords.
