Chapter 1039: Chapter 1000: Turning the Tables – The Secret to Awakening the Ancient Heroic Spirits!_1
Luo Fan stared at his dashing and handsome son, as if seeing him for the first time.
He had always thought his son to be without any learning or skills, where could he have imagined him being so fierce, even to the point of intervening in a battle of Luo Tiance's level.
Wrong!
Luo Fan took a deep breath, a look of astonishment flashing in his eyes, unable to calm his emotions for a long time.
It wasn't just intervening in a battle of that level, but rather completely dominating it.
Even though it was with the help of an external force, the feat was genuine.
With one punch, he destroyed the thunder calamity that could have obliterated Dajing City, saving tens of millions of dawn citizens.
If this achievement were to spread out, it would definitely cause an uproar.
And just a moment ago, he was acting all disappointed, advising his son to take his cultivation more seriously?
It turns out the joke was on me.
Luo Fan's mouth twitched incessantly, and the more he recalled, the redder his face became.
At this time, Luo Tiance keenly touched on the important point and couldn't help asking:
"Xiao Yu, just who is the senior who lent you his power, that merely lending you a strand of power could be so terrifying?"
Luo Yu shook his head.
"The senior did not reveal his Dao name to me, merely passed on his technique to me, and has now disappeared, leaving no trace to be found."
Luo Tiance fell into deep thought, pacing back and forth in the room.
"I have always been puzzled as to why Foreign Forces all have gods awakening, yet our Great Xia does not."
"If our gods are said to have perished, then why should the gods of these Foreign Forces be alive?"
"Now it's as if I understand something, maybe our gods have not disappeared nor abandoned us, they're just temporarily unable to appear for some reason."
Luo Yu nodded.
"I think exactly as you do."
"I feel the same," Luo Fan joined the conversation.
Luo Tiance pushed his head aside, asking seriously:
"Xiao Yu, do you recall any distinct features of the senior who imparted the technique to you?"
"Such a powerful figure would not be unknown even in legends."
Luo Yu thought for a moment and answered, "It was a benevolent-looking old Daoist riding a green ox."
"Hmm?"
The bodies of Luo Tiance and Luo Fan both shuddered at the same time.
Looking through the historical legends, the old Daoist riding a green ox could only be one person.
"The Laozi, the one who taught you techniques, it couldn't be Laozi, could it?" Luo Fan pressed with questions, unable to help swallowing his saliva.
That was Laozi, after all, who was said to have traveled westward through Hangu Pass, one of the Three Purities, and a great figure in charge of Ren Jiao.
And to think he was the one guiding my "ignorant" son in his cultivation?
Luo Tiance kept expressing his wonder.
Even with his mental fortitude, he found it difficult to maintain a calm mind, as he became quite shaken.
The identity of the person Luo Yu described had truly significant implications.
"Compared to Laozi, those resurrected false gods from Foreign Forces are nothing, kill one pair if they come, all must die."
"Since the senior has already left, it's most likely he won't appear again," Luo Yu interjected in a timely manner.
However, there wasn't a hint of dismay in Luo Tiance and Luo Fan's eyes, instead, their gazes were heated and hopeful as they looked at Luo Yu, making him quite uncomfortable.
"Since Senior Laozi took notice of you, it shows that you certainly have extraordinary abilities."
Luo Fan, who was just now a stern father, now seemed like an old sycophant, full of praise for Luo Yu.
Luo Yu was speechless.
How quickly you change your tune, sir, just a moment ago you were saying how I was a disappointment, and now you're all praise.
"Grandpa, what is this look in your eyes?" Luo Yu saw Luo Tiance sizing him up over and over, the corner of his mouth twitching slightly.
Luo Tiance clucked in amazement.
"The world is full of wonders, but I never imagined which technique could be cultivated successfully in a dream, and I can feel your technique is mysterious and undoubtedly far superior to any technique currently possessed by Great Xia."
Luo Yu pondered for a moment.
He felt that learning in dreams was not quite accurate; more precisely, it was cultivating internally within the Azure Stone Lotus, with all his cultivation results being truly reflected in his physical body.
"Good!"
"This is fantastic."
"I knew my grandson who was marked by a heavenly omen years ago was no ordinary individual, his years of silence clearly had a hidden story."
First in shock and marveling, Luo Tiance then burst into hearty laughter.
Every parent hopes for their child to be a 'mighty warrior' and stronger than their own generation, it was just out of care and love for Luo Yu that Luo Tiance never forced him to pursue cultivation actively, but in his heart, he had always been hoping and yearning for it.
Amidst the hearty laughter, Luo Tiance's aura began to rise, showing signs of a possible breakthrough.
"Dad?"
Luo Fan, who had once been an expert, could not fail to notice Luo Tiance on the verge of a breakthrough.
The rising aura then halted.
Luo Fan hesitated to ask, "Have you made a breakthrough?"
"It's not that easy to make a breakthrough," Luo Tiance shook his head, but his brows showed joy as he exclaimed, "This time, it was truly a blessing in disguise."
"In the process of battling the Thunder Dragon Calamity, I vaguely uncovered some secrets about the next realm."
"Between life and death lies great terror but also great breakthroughs."
"Although I haven't fully made the breakthrough this time, I'm not far from a true breakthrough. Once the Power of Heaven and Earth lessens its pressure on me a bit more, I will be able to achieve a real breakthrough."
Luo Fan was ecstatic: "Congratulations, father, congratulations, you will definitely be the first strongman to reach a brand-new realm in Great Xia and even in the world."
In response to the praise, Luo Tiance's face showed no arrogance as he replied irritably:
"What's there to congratulate me on?"
"We really owe it to our family's Xiao Yu this time; otherwise, the entire Great Capital Base would have been doomed."
