Grand Ancestral Bloodlines

Chapter 1500 Dead Man

Ryu wasn't sure exactly how strong he was now, but he was sure that he had significantly closed the gap against Eighth Heaven geniuses, especially since the weight of his Dao counted just that faintest bit more due to the fact he had a vessel to use it now.

Honestly speaking, the only thing he was lacking in were the techniques to maximize his strength. Anything that he had learned previously would obviously be useless now, and even if he was still in the World Sea Realm, if he was honest with himself, it wouldn't make a difference.

For a long while now, Ryu had lacked techniques to use. Aside from [Absolute Domain], and some general methods of the Radiant Star Sect's core materials, he had nothing else to use aside from his own power and skill.

The final time he had learned a Dao Charm technique, he hadn't even stepped foot into the True Martial World yet; it had truly been that long. He wondered if the gap between him and those geniuses might no longer be just a case of his raw talent or power output, but in terms of their technique foundations.

He contemplated about this problem for a fair bit, and by that he meant a few minutes, before he placed it to the side. Even if he wanted to find some techniques suitable to him, where would he do so?

The Radiant Star Sect was a good bet, and he felt that there was maybe a reason his Dao was so perfectly suited to the shape of a star, but Ryu was pretty much still the very identical Ryu, relying on the Radiant Star Sect wasn't in his blood.

Of course, he would return after he was done here, and of course, he would use their techniques. But what he meant by 'rely' was that he wanted his own techniques, his own methods to use his power, his own strength so arrogant bastards like the Chaotic Space Dao Sovereign couldn't try and lead him by the nose.

'Well, the initial step toward that end is understanding myself,' Ryu thought simply. contemporary romance

The initial thing Ryu did was summarize what the Lines of Fate did tell him about his skills.

First was his Bone Structure. He had already deviated from the path the Heavens intended, but that didn't faze him. Paying attention to this anyway would tell him more about its hidden abilities.

Unsurprisingly, the Boundless Cosmos Bone Structure tended toward a Domain Type ability at its very strongest. The Cosmos Fog was a perfect method of cutting an area off from the Heavens and forming up your own.

The Boundless Cosmos Bone Structure's best path, according to the Heavens, was to synergize with his Spacetime Soul Nature and form a region of time and space that was all his own. In mentioned region, the bounds of reality would be far more in his control.

The progression path was quite simple and that was just to strengthen his body. The stronger his body became, the stronger his Bone Structure would be, and the more imposing his Cosmos Fog could act toward the Heavens themselves.

Ryu found it a bit interesting that the Boundless Cosmos Bone Structure seemed to be encouraged to step out of the bounds of the Heavens, while his Taboo Powers were punished for doing the same.

The reason wasn't all that hidden, though. Everything described was just a temporary measure, there wasn't any permanence to it and nothing that separated him from the Heavens completely. Ultimately, his Bone Structure, while following this path, would still be firmly rooted in this reality.

This was obviously not the route Ryu wanted to go. When he initial learned about his Bone Structure, his first contemplated was toward that fanciful dream of his of forming the Tenth Heaven within himself. His Bone Structure seemed to allow a chance to do just that.

However, there were still some clues within this path. For example, using his Cosmos Fog more like it was an Inheritance than a Bone Structure would be an interesting application method. That would give his Cosmos Fog some structure that would not only allow it to be more powerful and effective, but also lessen the amount he had to use to achieve the identical result.

If he had had this, then his ability to trick Primus would have been far easier.

Thinking of Primus, Ryu sent a glance into the skies. He truly was not there, and what was more interesting was that now that he could gaze upon his Fate Star whenever he wanted, it was not without-chains and spinning normally.

Aside from that, its bright lights had dimmed considerably and it looked not much different from any other Fate Star in the endless skies.

Ryu was easily able to put two and two together. Primus had released him from his Fate Star's chains and used that as the method to sever their final bit of Karma.

'Unfortunate,' Ryu chuckled. He had some plans for making Primus' life a living hell once he was finished with this, but it seemed like this wasn't in the cards for him.

But he had another odd thought. If Primus had known about the chains, then why not do this from the very start.

Then, Ryu "understood".

To Ryu, Primus had waited for Ryu to "die", that way the act of unleashing his Fate Star was less impactful and thus the Karma exchanged was just enough to not form positive Karma.

Essentially, if Primus had acted any earlier, not only would Ryu have been released, all of his initial potential would have been the same, and that would defeat his purpose.

Although that could have been fixed by harming Ryu directly, Primus was too prideful to attack a junior who was also far weaker than him, so he chose this route instead.

All of this made perfect sense to Ryu, though he didn't know that it was inaccurate.

Even if he knew the truth, though, would it matter?

The ultimate truth was that Primus had stood on the sidelines while his family was completely slaughtered. In Ryu's book...

He was a dead man.
