Grand Ancestral Bloodlines

Chapter 1472 Unexpected Details

Ryu shook his head.

The Heavens were giving him a choice. Either he could pick five treasures from any of the given God Treasures here, or he could receive a divination of fate that could be used to bring him toward exactly what he needed to perfect one thing.

Ryu assumed that this "one thing" was meant to be a limiter on what he could ask for. For example, he couldn't just ask to perfect his path of cultivation itself.

lightsnοvεl.cοm He actually didn't believe that the Heavens would stop him from asking such a thing of it. The problem was how much quality the response would have. Someone might jump at the chance, but Ryu, as a Ruin Master, understood better than anyone else what it truly meant.

"One thing", translated in this context, wasn't about quantity, necessarily, or at the very least, not directly. Rather, it was a hidden warning about the breadth of the requests Heaven would allow.

One of the most poetic and enigmatic lines of all cultivation was as follows.

One begets Two. Two begets Three. And Three Begets All Things.

The rawest understanding of the saving was that all things were connected, but there was a secondary portion that was often ignored, and one that Ryu felt that he had come to understand over the course of his life.

All things were connected, but it wasn't up to you to decide how they were. All sorts of things could happen throughout your life that you might have never expected because a living being could never truly comprehend the vastness of the world.

A pebble kicked today might become a boulder that caused an avalanche the next. The fluttering wings of a butterfly might create a storm thousands of miles away. And one seed of cultivation planted now could become far more broad and all encompassing in the future.

It was the Heavens giving a subtle warning. Start small, and you might receive a great many things in return. Start too large and you would miss the forest for the trees.

The Heavens would never leave a message as crude as "pick one thing". The only explanation was that there was a far deeper meaning to it and it was yet another test.

Even though he saw through it easily, Ryu still felt that he was being screwed over. The Heavens might be able to divine exactly what he needed and where exactly to go to get them, but he would likely still have to risk his life to do so.

And yet, on the other hand, he could pick out five God Treasures. It was clearly dangling this matter in his face. He could practically imagine the warriors of Heavens up above getting a good chuckle out of this ridiculous farce.

Did these bastard Heavens even understand what it meant to be able to pick out five God Treasures?

There were dozens of Lord Treasures here, hundreds of Sovereign Treasures. Even the whole of the Eighth Heaven might not have this many accumulated treasures across all of their powers. A single pinnacle power might have a total of five, and yet the Heavens were giving him an opportunity, right here and now, to match them with ease.

He spotted a defensive treasure just now, that even without his input, was indestructible against attacks of beings below the Transcendent Realm, and that was at no cost to himself. If he chose it, he could literally slap a Perfect Sky God across the face and they would be able to do nothing to him.

As he grew more powerful, the treasure would likewise become more exaggerated. Just upon stepping into the Sky God Realms, he would be immune to any attack beneath the Omniscient Realm at only a small cost to himself. At that stage, he would be able to block dozens of attacks as he attempted an escape.

And why would he need to worry about escape when there was another treasure here that could forcefully teleport either himself or any enemy beneath the Transcendent Realm away?

With his Spacetime Soul Nature, he would even be able to raise it a level and do the same to Transcendent Sky Gods. The idea of being able to forcefully teleport a Sky God away without them being able to resist was absolutely ridiculous.

Being able to teleport yourself away sounded like enough, but what if you happened to be fighting over a treasure with a Sky God, in which case you teleporting away would mean losing the treasure? This might be a situation that Ryu would find himself in very soon since he needed to find more Origin Natural Treasures for his Beyond Perfect Extreme Spiritual Foundation. And yet, he would only be able to choose one or the other?

If detecting treasures was his problem, there was a perfectly good compass treasure right there. It could lock onto any Natural Treasure beneath the Lord Realm within a thousand kilometers, and it could even become the center of a confusion array that could fool the eyes of any beast beneath the Lord Realm for long enough for you to snatch it.

Ryu missed the ability to just be capable of casually detecting treasures like that. He truly missed his wife.

Of course, there were treasures here that could likewise increase his ffensive capability to an insane degree. It felt like the Heavens had whipped ut their cock and started pissing all over him because in the distance, he ctually saw a pair of Great Swordstaffs.

Just how rare were sword staffs as a weapon? Let alone dual wielding them On top of that? What Blacksmith would waste their time forging a pair of dentical great sword staffs aside from himself?

And yet, there they were, two Sovereign Grade Great Swordstaffs that also radiated an aura of time and space.

He could make them as light as a feather, as heavy as a blackhole. He could use them to amplify his control of space even more than the Spectral Wind Wings allowed him to, and they could multiply his layered usage of space with incomparable ease.

The best part was that they came outfitted with two Domains, one for each. One was a Time Domain that could freeze even a Perfect Sky God in time for an entire second. Against someone of his level, he would practically be invincible with this treasure.

The other was a Space Domain that could be used as both an absolute attack and an absolute defense. He could form spatial shields that could block even the attacks of False Sky Gods casually, or he could use a charged attack that could kill a False Sky God just as casually.

The worst part was that that wasn't even the only one pair of great Swordstaffs present. There was another pair, but this one was wreathed in Tire and lightning, one a gorgeous sapphire blue and the other a beautiful ruby red.

At that point, Ryu was certain. The Heavens were doing this on purpose. They wanted him to pine for these treasures, and they had even perfectly picked out these treasures for him. Maybe some Heavenly Messengers had even forged these weapons specifically for his sake.

Even so, the reason Ryu was so frustrated and irritated wasn't because he was deliberating on what to do. Instead, it was because he had already made his choice and he was annoyed that the Heavens were testing him.

No matter how much he changed, that part of him would never change. He absolutely hated to be tested.

Fine. I'll allow it this time. Give it to me.

Ryu took an annoyed breath and spoke.

"Enlighten the path of the Beyond Perfect Extreme Spiritual Foundation for me. Specifically, I would like to know what treasures it needs to allow it to enter the Sky God Realms."

After some deliberation, Ryu decided to make it as short and concise as possible. The matters of his Beyond Perfect Extreme Spiritual Foundation already roped in a ton of highly contentious materials. Just the first two Cosmic Seeds it had formed both used two of the greatest treasures in all of existence.

So while he was feeling a bit reluctant, rather than asking for the Heavens to lead him down the path of true perfection, he instead went for perfection through the Cosmic Seed Realm and into the World Sea Realm.

Essentially, Ryu was asking for the location of the relics he would need to release the Cosmic Qi Sea and form his World Sea.

What he received, though, was something more comprehensive than he thought he would. For a moment, as he watched all of those beautiful relics around him vanish one after another, he felt that he had narrowed down his scope too much.

But after a while, he shook his head. This was perfect, and this was a truly worthy exchange.

The first thing he received was a perfect roadmap to each Natural Origin Treasure. Not only did he suddenly know all of their locations, he was even given several methods of entry that he could use, what dangers were associated with them, there were even some clues on how he might survive, though these last tips were far vaguer than the others.

If he felt the danger was too great, the Heavens actually provided a roadmap to relics of slightly lesser value that would still allow him to complete his task. In fact, he even had the decision of using fewer Natural Origin Treasures and breaking through prematurely.
