Top-Class Comprehension: Start with Basic Fist Techniques Chapter 1319 389: Fellow Daoists, You Misunderstand—Brother Lu Wants All Three of You to Come at Once!
Previously on Top-Class Comprehension: Start with Basic Fist Techniques...
Lu Changsheng felt a genuine sense of curiosity. It was his maiden voyage encountering another Red Dust Immortal, and he was eager to gauge the other's decomposition ability. This presented a somewhat "demanding" request.
However, True Immortal Dongyu seemed unfazed, responding with a nod, "Very well, I hope Brother Lu will impart some wisdom. Still, what shall we analyze?"
Lu Changsheng considered this for a moment. For a direct comparison, analyzing an Immortal Array would be the most pragmatic approach. Lu Changsheng happened to possess some Array Flags.
Having already analyzed these specific Immortal Arrays, Lu Changsheng proceeded to deploy the Array Flags, thereby constructing an Immortal Array. "Now then, I shall trouble Brother Dongyu to analyze this Immortal Array."
True Immortal Dongyu nodded. Instead of resorting to brute force to dismantle the Immortal Array, he settled into a cross-legged position, commencing his analysis of Lu Changsheng's creation. His objective was to decipher the Immortal Array, thereby dismantling it without leaving a single trace.
Lu Changsheng observed True Immortal Dongyu with great attention, keen on witnessing True Immortal Dongyu's decomposition ability firsthand. Days turned into weeks, and then months.
True Immortal Dongyu became completely engrossed in the Immortal Array. One month, two months, three months... In what felt like the blink of an eye, three months had vanished. Yet, True Immortal Dongyu had still not managed to breach the Immortal Array, a fact that inevitably left Lu Changsheng feeling rather disappointed.
Three full months had elapsed, and True Immortal Dongyu showed no indication of deciphering the array. Lu Changsheng began to question if his perception was playing tricks on him. He maintained a vigilant watch over True Immortal Dongyu's every action.
He noted that the speed at which True Immortal Dongyu analyzed the Immortal Array was astonishingly glacial. At such a pace, how long would the complete analysis truly take? Ten years? Perhaps even a century? Regardless, it was abundantly clear that it wouldn't be accomplished within a mere handful of months.
Lu Changsheng couldn't help but inquire, "Brother Dongyu, approximately how much longer will your analysis of this Immortal Array require?"
True Immortal Dongyu responded, "There is no need for haste. I have deciphered a portion of it. At this juncture, gaining some meaningful insight should take about a year. Following that, it will simply be a matter of persistent effort; perhaps a few decades or even a century to eventually breach this Immortal Array."
"Indeed, this is quite efficient. Fortunately, I have analyzed a comparable Immortal Array previously, which accounts for this elevated efficiency."
Lu Changsheng: "..."
Frankly, Lu Changsheng found himself at a loss for words. Three months had passed with virtually no discernible progress. And this was spoken of as efficiency? Deciphering a single Immortal Array requiring decades or even a century? Yet, this was deemed efficient? Lu Changsheng could scarcely fathom it.
Devoting decades, or even a century, to analyzing an Immortal Array. Furthermore, this was merely an arrray he had casually constructed, not one of exceptional difficulty or complexity. From this observation, Lu Changsheng gained a near-complete understanding of True Immortal Dongyu's decomposition ability.
If the decomposition ability of an ordinary Red Dust Immortal was merely this, Lu Changsheng would be profoundly underwhelmed. Even if amplified tenfold or a hundredfold, it would likely still pale in comparison to Lu Changsheng's own capabilities. The chasm between their abilities was simply too immense.
"Enough, let us cease for the moment." Lu Changsheng declared, his patience having run its course. He no longer wished to observe.
"Oh?"
"Very well, we shall halt."
"Judging by Brother Lu's demeanor, you appear rather disappointed?" True Immortal Dongyu astutely perceived Lu Changsheng's sentiment.
Lu Changsheng offered no reply. He felt not merely disappointment, but more strikingly, sheer astonishment. Lu Changsheng finally grasped the extraordinary extent of his own decomposition ability. Despite both being Red Dust Immortals, there existed profound variations between individuals of the same rank.
Ultimately, the singular reason for Lu Changsheng's formidable decomposition ability was comprehension! Only through such staggering comprehension could it translate into decomposition capability, resulting in such a colossal disparity. It was no wonder True Immortal Dongyu had been so dumbfounded upon witnessing Lu Changsheng analyze the very fabric of space within the Ancient Immortal Battlefield.
After all, with True Immortal Dongyu's level of decomposition ability. Attempting to analyze space? He wasn't even qualified. Even if he dedicated an eon or ten eons to it, no fruit would be borne. Analyzing space was an exercise in utter futility.
Yet, True Immortal Dongyu distinctly perceived that Lu Changsheng possessed a genuine aptitude for spatial analysis. This very realization prompted True Immortal Dongyu to remain by Lu Changsheng's side, observing for several months.
"My gratitude, Brother Dongyu."
"May I inquire if Brother Dongyu is here in pursuit of the Immortal Treasure for suppressing Qi Fortune?"
Lu Changsheng posed the question.
He had no desire to continue discussing the matter of 'decomposition' any longer.
It was ultimately pointless.
He was already aware of the 'decomposition' capabilities of other True Immortals.
Clearly, Lu Changsheng occupied a realm entirely separate from them.
Thus, further conversation on the subject was unnecessary.
Noticing Lu Changsheng's initiative to shift the topic, a subtle light gleamed within True Immortal Dongyu's eyes.
However, as Lu Changsheng was disinclined to explore the matter further, True Immortal Dongyu refrained from pressing the issue.
Instead, he affirmed with a confident nod, stating, "Indeed, to speak frankly, which True Immortal venturing into the Heavenly Abyss Ancient Immortal Battlefield is not seeking the Immortal Treasure for suppressing Qi Fortune? My fervent wish is to establish my own Dao Field, yet I am wanting for the Immortal Treasure to anchor my Qi Fortune. This has consequently delayed the establishment of my Dao Field, compelling me to seek my fortune within this Heavenly Abyss Ancient Immortal Battlefield."
"Initially, my intention was merely to test my luck in the first layer, without daring to proceed to the second layer, given its extreme peril."
"However, an anomaly appears to have transpired within the spatial confines of the first layer; it was utterly desolate. Not only did I fail to discover any Immortal Treasure, but I did not even encounter a solitary Dead Spirit. It is truly perplexing..."
