Grand Ancestral Bloodlines

Ryu held the orb in his hand for a while. Unsurprisingly, it greedily absorbed the Chaos Qi and Essence within him. But unlike the other two, the results of this were nearly immediate.

His grandfather's bow, which was on the inside, was wrapped by the glow.

From the beginning, his grandfather's bow was at the Ancestral Grade of Sacrum. However, here, that did mean much. In fact, it was weaker than many Earth Grade treasures. But after just a single breath of time within the orb, it shed those shackles and entered the true Ancestral Grade.

Ryu's gaze glowed when he saw this. In an instant, this bow had become his best weapon by a large margin, and it seemed that with just an extra few minutes, it would enter the Fragmented Grade.

This much shouldn't be too surprising. The materials the bow was constructed out of were, indeed, of the Ancestral Grade and even of the Origin Grade, the issue was that they had been baptized under Sacrum's law, as lacked the complete laws needed to the True Martial World's standards.

However, with the presence of both Essence and Chaos, not to mention the guiding hand of the evolution orb, this weakness was almost instantly handled before it began to grow it to a new level. This was an Omniscient Grade God Treasure at the end of the day. Evolving a treasure with this sort of priming to the Fragmented Grade was as easy as breathing for it. It probably wouldn't even begin to struggle until it came time to raise it to the Transcended God Grade.

Ryu nodded once and let the treasure fuse with his body. It seemed that it was time to leave.

At this moment, or it could be said that this had been the case for months already, the Fourth Heaven was in chaos. This was because of one simple reason: news that a Sect had primed itself to transcend the Third Heaven's barrier to the Fourth Heaven had spread like wildfire.

Unlike process of raising through the first three levels, or even through the to Sixth Heavens, one couldn't casually decide they wanted to progress and act as they pleased. Instead, it was necessary to prove yourself through the Heavenly Path first.

The obvious question, though, was how could a Sect go about doing this especially since the Heavenly Path seemed to be designed for the younger generation? And the answer was precisely in that. A Sect had to rely on their younger generation to pave a path for them

When such a request was sent in, the Heavenly Path would begin a second test, one that was covert and under the surface. This would test the skills of the geniuses the Sect or Clan had sent in to measure whether or not they had reached the minimum standard of the Fourth Heaven.

Unfortunately, while the process of this test was supposed to be secretive, with the cheating methods of the upper Heavens even allowing them to suppress the Daos of others, how could they not have a method of knowing much? only thing they didn't know was which Sect would be coming forward.

The commotion wasn't small. It had been too long since anyone had dared to do this. While it wasn't guaranteed that their disciples would reach the appropriate level, just the audacity alone was enough to infuriate the powers of the Fourth Heaven.

Unfortunately for them, they had no idea where the Sect was choosing to settle down. If they did, they would have probably surrounded the region already, prepared to blast them to nothingness the moment they took a single step forward.

Even the various Clans and Sects primed themselves, ready to crush anyone and anything foreign that entered their territories.

The only region that was relatively calm was the central region as they felt that had correctly assumed that no new blood would dare to encroach upon their territory, it was so far beyond the realms of reason that they didn't even put up their guard.

That said, that didn't mean that these Clans and Sects had no methods of dealing with this new Sect that thought too much of itself. While the location of a Sect's ascent was unknown and chosen by the Sect itself, what wasn't random was the exit of the Heavenly Path.

If things followed the pattern of the past, even if this Sect passed, it should be just barely. This meant that the disciples they sent in should be their absolute best. If they were slaughtered the moment they took a single step out, that Sect would suffer a devastating blow they might never recover from.

Due to fear of this, the Sect would definitely have to send powerful experts to the central region to protect their disciples, and by then, they would suffer even greatly.

In the the participants of the Heavenly Path would be geniuses of the First, Second Third Heaven. But this time, geniuses of the Fourth and Fifth Heaven were participating as well. This meant that these Sects and Clans had sent powerhouses of their own down.

Any disciple that could be sent to the lower Heavens for the sake of the Convergence had an status, so the powerhouses that were sent down to retrieve them weren't weak in the slightest. In fact, because these powers knew this, they would send even stronger powerhouses than normal for both the sake of face and as a display of power.

It could be said that this was the absolute most foolish time to think of ascending.

This led to an odd situation where experts of the Fourth and Fifth Heaven casually chatting to one another without a care in the world and ignoring everything around them, and yet also being fully prepared to crush any sort of dissent.

And at that moment, fluctuations of Heavenly Favor began to move and quake. The phantom of the ancient cube appeared, before collapsing into a blackhole.
