Grand Ancestral Bloodlines

Chapter 1484 So What?

Of the two, the healing pill, worked quite immediately and miraculously. It gathered up the latent Tribulation Lightning that was rampaging around in his body and seemed to vibrate them until they were in tune with his own Spirit Body while expelling the portions that refused to do so. It in one part healed him, another part strengthened him, and a final part expelled any latent danger. It was hard to believe that this was a pill that the Favor Alchemy Sky God had come with on a whim.

Compared to this, the Focus Qi Restoring pill was almost a bit lackluster, but this was to be expected. This pill was the first of its kind, at least from Ryu's understanding, while the healing pill should have been built from a skeletal understanding that the little woman had for another, similar type of pill.

Even so, it recovered about 10% of Ryu's Focus Qi immediately, and then it had a lingering "aftertaste" of sorts that continuously replenished his Focus Qi. From the pace, it could add an additional 1% to his Focus Qi about every two or three minutes, and judging by the medicinal efficacy, it could restore about 50% of his own before it ran out of energy in a couple of hours.

"Any side effects from taking more than one of the Focus Qi Restoring pill?" Ryu asked.

"No. The only drawback is that if you take more than one in a 24-hour period, the immediate restorative effect will be limited. Right now it can restore 50% immediately, but if you take a second it'll be closer to 30%, and if you take a third it'll be closer to 10%. The lingering effect should be the same, though."

Ryu raised an eyebrow, but he didn't say anything. 50%? He had only regained 10%, and this was obviously the first time he had taken the pill. Even so, he didn't have time to have this conversation right now.

He took a step forward and began to move.

From his understanding, it wouldn't take that "youth" more than a few hours to make it out of the valley. A few hours head start for him, especially since he was on the Eighth Heaven, was next to nothing in face of a Sky God.

He couldn't cut through space as wantonly as he could on the Sixth Heaven. In fact, he couldn't even step into the void currently, at least not without the help of his Spectral Wind Wings.

It also didn't help that the unstable energies in the air, caused by the Tribulation Lightning, made space far more unstable.

But he had already planned for this. In fact, this would only help him in his estimation, that was because it would be far harder for Primus to track him.

'Dammit.'

Ryu had only just had these thoughts when his eyes spotted trouble. He had already shrouded himself in his Void Spiritual Sense, but he didn't know if it was nearly potent enough to continue hiding from-

The little woman's pressure descended and shrouded Ryu as well.

Ryu exhaled a breath. This little woman was being surprisingly helpful recently. Honestly, most of his plans didn't take her into account at least because he was used to weathering danger on his own.

In the far-off distance, several auras were approaching with quick speed. At the same time, the Sky God youth who he thought should take hours to come out of the valley appeared in a flash, smashing into the ground in a slightly sorry state, but compared to Ryu he only suffered a few charred marks.

Everyone was here for the same purpose, obviously, and that was to understand what was happening in the valley. But, the only person who knew that Ryu was likely to be responsible was the Sky God youth.

Knowing his luck, though, Ryu knew that he would be the one targeted. That was because when he swept his senses over the youth for the first time, he realized just how young he truly was. He was closer to 10 years older than Ryu as opposed to 20.

There was no way he was an unknown character in his world. If these approaching powers would interrogate anyone, it would be him.

Seeing this troubling situation, rather than panicking, Ryu actually grinned.

What was a troubling situation to others simply looked like a pie in the sky to him.

His true destination wasn't far from here. He had picked out a route of progression through the various treasures that linked with one another so that he wasn't wasting too much time traveling.

The unstable space in the surroundings made for the creation of all sorts of treasures, but the treasure in Ryu's eyes was the volatile space itself.

His eyes glowed and he deployed the Sightly Eyes Formation once again. The formation took root with greater speed than Ryu had ever seen it do so. This was both due to the nature of the unstable energies that were around, and the fact that Ryu had kept the size down to just him.

This formation was created to a standard of a Fragmented Sky God thanks to Ryu's Internal Matrix. And thanks to the Unbalance Mantra and the wild energies, so long as he kept it on a small scale, he was completely obscured.

Between these two groups of people looking for him, he slipped right by them both. No, only one group was looking for him, the others focused their eyes on the Sky God youth.

No matter what kind of background this youth had... was his prestige worth more than a treasure in this kind of place?

The youth wanted to blast by those present and continue chasing after Ryu, but he was "respectfully" stopped by his seniors that wanted to ask him some pointed questions.

Ryu didn't even look back as he slipped into the surrounding forest.

The landscape was gorgeous in a way he had never seen. The elements of space and lightning combined to create all sorts of wondrous sights.

Ryu saw a tree with roots and branches, but no trunk, as though air itself was holding up its enormous canopy. He saw a tree that had roots and a trunk, but branches that were entirely made of lightning frozen in time. From time to time ripples in space would suddenly manifest like whirlpools in raging waters, and at other times seemingly vibrant earth elemental plants would randomly spark with lightning.

It was clear that this sort of place was as dangerous as it was beautiful, and it also seemed to explain why the youth was the only one in the valley, or at the very least, the only one that seemed to survive.

The valley wasn't the only dangerous place here. Even reaching the valley was a journey through hell.

Ryu wasn't fazed, though. His control over space might be far weaker on the Eighth Heaven, to the point that even shrinking the ground was difficult, but his senses over space hadn't dulled in the slightest. And when one understood space as deeply as he did, understanding how the lightning would react to it was another easy stroke.

'There it is.'

Ryu smiled as he located another Legacy World.

"You've actually come to my lands, child?"

Ryu froze. An overwhelming pressure descended around him from all directions and it threatened to crush him entirely, and yet he could tell that this person wasn't trying to pressure him at all. Instead, they were simply talking to him, even a glimmer of astonishment seeping into their voice.

This voice, this tone, Ryu recognized it all too well.

The Chaotic Space Sky God.

'You've gotta be kidding me.'

If Ryu was in a more comedic mood, he would have definitely slapped his forehead. Although he could feel the pressure, he was already used to ignoring the pressure of big shots. The real reason he didn't move was because he needed every inch of his body focused on what his next action would be.

He didn't believe that this was actually the land of the Chaotic Space Sky God, or more accurately, not this stretch of earth in specific. Rather, the Dao Sovereign should be referring to the Eighth Heaven itself.

That meant that this idiot had somehow sensed him just because he stepped foot on the Eighth Heaven?

Ryu realized now just how much he had undervalued Sky Gods. Much like with space, and to a smaller extent on time, when you reached a great enough level of strength, peering into and controlling Karma just came with the territory.

Although Ryu had never accepted the Chaotic Space Sky God's inheritance, how many times would a Dao Sovereign witness his legacy being crushed instead of happily received? Ryu's karmic ties with this Dao Sovereign were already strong enough for the latter to do this.

The pressure was increasing, and Ryu could feel that this was because the Dao Sovereign was sending more and more of his "attention" in his direction. He was running out of time.

Ryu's gaze flashed with coldness as the dim Divine Chains that surrounded him suddenly pulsed, solidifying.

He moved fast, his arms reaching out and his hands grasping at air before twisting and pulling hard.

Invisible Lines of Fate seemed to be grabbed, twisted, and shattered in an instant.

"Go wait patiently somewhere in a ditch, I tend to hold a grudge," Ryu growled before he stepped into the Legacy World.

The faint hum of a chuckle echoed in his ears. "How fascinating... I, though, won't be making a move against you, child. My Chosen will."

Ryu didn't have enough facial expressions to show his utter contempt toward these words.

For one, his "chosen" was definitely Starlight, and he didn't plan on even struggling against someone he had already defeated before, let alone losing to them. contemporary romance

And secondly, as if he believed that this audacious Dao Sovereign would be so noble.

He would deal with him soon enough.

He knew that Starlight had been granted a set of Chaotic Silk Meridians now. But...

So what?
