Looking at Yuan Feng's expectant gaze, he pondered how he should refuse.
He had never encountered such a situation. As for Yuan Feng being an Innate Sacred Being, whether they could conceive, or who would be the father and who the mother—these were not reasons he could use.
After all, among Innate Sacred Beings, strength is respected. Whoever wins has the right to speak; the victor chooses everything, and the loser can only obey.
However, his Dao does not utilize descendants for cultivation. The Great Luo Dao is the path he created.
The further one walks along the Great Luo Dao, the stronger one becomes. After pondering for a moment, Hongjun sincerely spoke to Yuan Feng:
"Fellow Daoist, there is no need for that. My path is somewhat different from yours. Utilizing descendants or Bloodline offspring to evolve one's own Dao through them—that is not my Great Dao.
Instead of spending time on that, why don't you and I discuss the Dao?"
"But..." Yuan Feng pondered for a moment, nodded, and spoke.
Seeing Hongjun's attitude, it was likely impossible for him to agree. Yuan Feng genuinely wanted to create a Bloodline offspring with this Innate Sacred Being to verify her own Great Dao.
But if the person disagreed, she couldn't force it. Moreover, while Ancestral Dragon had clear gains using that method to verify and deduce his Great Dao, it didn't mean she would necessarily have clear gains doing the same.
If she forcefully acted and pressured this individual to conceive Bloodline offspring with her, wouldn't she simply gain an enemy?
Of course, the most crucial point was that she absolutely could not defeat Hongjun.
She couldn't force him even if she wanted to. It was better to discuss the Dao and make a friend. Perhaps if he changed his mind in the future, it wouldn't be impossible to take this path.
At this moment, Hongjun's face was full of joy. He also harbored some desire for Yuan Feng's Great Dao, as discussing the Dao could also enhance his own strength.
Seeing Yuan Feng agree, the two of them began discussing the Dao right there.
Their discussion of the Dao was somewhat different from the discussions held by Yang Mei and others.
Their discussion was more like a collision of Daos. Amidst the collision, they comprehended the other's Dao and principles, integrating these concepts into their own Great Dao to enhance their own strength.
Hundreds of thousands of years later, their discussion of the Dao finally concluded. The aura around both of them had improved slightly, and their Dao Power seemed to have undergone a certain transformation.
Hongjun was the one who gained the most from this discussion. The Great Dao of Equality thoroughly permeated every space-time he occupied, intertwining with the Great Luo Dao.
In every space-time, the power of countless Incarnations in the past could be condensed into one body. Most terrifyingly, he could freely roam the past.
However, there was no joy on Hongjun's face; instead, there was a hint of worry.
He discovered that after the Great Dao transformed, it seemed to subtly possess a certain attribute, allowing his thoughts to roam the past much faster.
Even without using the Great Luo Dao, if his present self was erased, the imprint of the past would inherit the current power, meaning he would not completely lose the power to resist, making his demise much harder.
This had a significant impact on his Great Luo Dao. It meant that once other Innate Sacred Beings reached his current Great Dao level, the gap between them would gradually narrow.
The advantage of the Great Luo Dao would no longer be so great.
After pondering for a moment, a trace of determination flashed in Hongjun's eyes.
Since he was currently ahead of the other Innate Sacred Beings, it meant he was temporarily leading them. If he won now and seized the opportunity, he might not lose in the future.
If that was the case, what was there to worry about?
With this thought, Hongjun bid farewell to Yuan Feng and headed towards Yujing Mountain. He needed to properly sort out the gains from this journey.
Compared to before his Breakthrough, his strength had increased by far more than just a little.
The time spent on the return journey was also much shorter. Before long, he returned to Yujing Mountain.
Inside Yujing Mountain, Hongjun let out a long breath, summoned the pangu banner to devour the Origin and Law within the crystal divine kingdom, while he himself continuously deduced his Great Luo Dao.
After the Artifact Spirit of the pangu banner devoured the Origins, it watched Hongjun's continuous attempts and chuckled.
"Heh, Fellow Daoist Hongjun, if you continue like this, it's probably impossible to become stronger. You fundamentally don't understand what you are currently lacking."
Hongjun, who was using the jade disc of creation for continuous deduction and trial-and-error, opened his eyes and asked the Artifact Spirit of the pangu banner with some confusion:
"Fellow Daoist, what do you mean? Has Fellow Daoist discovered my flaw? My Great Luo Dao is still undergoing continuous deduction. If there is a flaw, please enlighten me."
Hongjun was extremely humble. He was currently stuck in a Bottleneck. The Great Luo Dao made all his selves in the past, present, and future space-time equally powerful.
Theoretically, these powers could be stacked, but it was only a stacking of strength. The Dao is unique; the Great Dao of the past and the Great Dao of the present cannot be stacked at all.
It only provided a slight advantage in the cultivation of his own Great Dao.
The Artifact Spirit of the pangu banner condensed a phantom body and spoke to Hongjun:
"I looked at your so-called Great Luo Dao. Rather than calling it a Great Dao, it's more like a characteristic.
The characteristic of Innate Sacred Beings is the contraction of the past, making the self unique.
However, the characteristic of the Great Luo Dao is that the past and present space-time are equally powerful, with the past assisting the present self in cultivation.
Unlike Innate Sacred Beings, whose past space-time transforms into imprints symbolizing their own Great Dao. If these imprints are erased, their strength suffers greatly.
Although the Great Luo Realm has differences, the fundamental gap is not large.
It's just that the possibility of being killed is smaller; it's harder to kill.
Instead of doing this, your Great Luo Dao should try to imitate my characteristics."
As it spoke, a unique aura appeared above the pangu banner. This aura seemed to transcend this world, yet it maintained a Karma relationship with this world.
But even if the imprints of the past and future were erased, it would be unable to harm its true body.
Hongjun watched all of this, a look of shock on his face.
Upon this Magic Treasure, he seemed to see a primordial giant banner, towering above the river of time and the Primordial World. All Laws and ten thousand Daos could not wear it down or cut away its essence.
What is Great Luo? This is Great Luo.
Hongjun thought to himself: his future path was now very clear—to stand above the river of time, to transcend the river of time, and even to transcend the Honghuang World.
This path is the path of transcendence, which is also the so-called Great Luo, free and unfettered in all space-time.
