Chapter 1473 So Similar
This was far more than anything Ryu could have expected, and the best part of it was that he didn't need to worry about this suddenly vanishing from his mind like his previous rewards. That was because this was raw information, but that also told Ryu something else.
In all likelihood, this information only painted things as they were now. If he dragged his feet too much, or took too long to take action on this current information, what he had now would become more and more inaccurate.
Ryu shook his head when he realized this. The Heavens were really trying their best to screw him over, but there wasn't much he could do about it. At the same time, it made sense that this information wouldn't just continuously update at his leisure.
For every update, it would take another analysis of Fate, and after a couple times, the amount of energy that would cost would far outweigh the rewards Ryu deserved.
Even so, just the fact that the Heavens could just take a peek at everything across Existence and pick out exactly what he needed in a flash was fascinating. He began to wonder if he had really made the right choice.
Had he been too selfish? Should he have asked the Heavens to find Ailsa and Yaana? It hadn't even crossed his mind because the wording designated something that would help his cultivation, but what if he had twisted it a bit to suit his needs. After all, Ailsa was his Life Partner, a true Cultus Faerie. Technically, wasn't she a help to his cultivation too?
This thought stuck with Ryu and he felt an uncomfortable feeling in his chest.
The reason this thought had suddenly come to him was because of the data he had received, some of the locations weren't even in the True Marital World at all. Some were in the Abyssal Plane, some were in the True Nether Plane, but there were also some on smaller worlds as well.
The Heavens had actually given him multiple choices on how to progress forward, and among those choices, there was the chance to gain Origin Treasures from weaker worlds, and then find a way to upgrade them.
What was important to Ryu wasn't this. He felt that the effort to upgrade Origin Treasures was even more difficult than just finding them, so there was no point. He might as well aim for the real thing immediately. The main reason he was harping on these so much was because of one obvious thing...
The Heavens had scanned the entirety of Existence. If Ailsa and Yaana were out there somewhere, and not flung onto a completely different timeline, then the Heavens would be able to find them in an instant.
Ryu took a breath and exhaled, shaking his head.
He knew he was being too emotional about this. With how long those two had spent in his Inner World, they were far more powerful than he was by now. If they were really in a location that could be easily accessed and reached, they would have long since come to him. It wouldn't be up to him to save them.
Even by conservative estimates, Ryu believed that they were at least True Sky Gods. He simply didn't have the strength to overcome something that they could not.
This said, there seemed to be plenty of other things he could have asked about, his Fate Star being one. But Ryu felt that he was already on the path to breaking free. In addition, his Spiritual Foundation was seen as so important that even though his Fate Star was already sealed, the Martial Gods chose to take a step further and end his path of cultivation anyway.
There was a not insignificant chance that raising his Spiritual Foundation to the ends of the World Sea Realm might actually be an impetus to break his Fate Star free.
As for his Chaotic Silk Meridians, he had already gained enough data about it thanks to his last set of benefits from round two. Although it was a shame the Lines of Fate had vanished, Ryu had a feeling that they would reappear as soon as he fixed his Fate Star. He could only hope that they wouldn't have faded too much by the time he succeeded.
The only other things that enticed him as much as his original Spiritual Foundation were two things really, or three, depending on how you looked at it
The first was his Bone Structure, for obvious reasons. Right now, the number of his strengths that relied on his Bone Structure working properly were numerous, but that only made him think of how much more powerful his Bone Structure would be if he had more than just a bare skeleton understanding of what its abilities were.
The second, and/or third, was his White Phoenix Spiritual Foundation and its white flames.
The white flame was a curious mystery that he had yet to fully understand, and the potential of the White Phoenix in supplanting the strengths he gained from the Unbalance Art Sect intrigued him although he had yet to use it/in battle.
Even so, he felt that his Beyond Perfect Extreme Spiritual Foundation was definitely his best bet, and that was a decision that he was comfortable with.
Ryu pressed a hand to his chest, taking a deep breath and exhaling.
He could face death without his Dao Heart wavering. He could appear in the world of endless white without his Dao heart wavering. He could face the chains of a true Dao God without his Dao Heart wavering.
But just a single thought of his wives had made him so uncomfortable.
He could see now why powerful cultivators often severed much of their karma. His Dao Heart was stronger than most Sky Gods at this point, regardless of level, but he was still so heavily impacted.
And yet, he didn't see it as a weakness.
I'll find you both. And if someone is responsible for you being unable to stand by my side once more... even if they are a Dao God I will cut them down.
Ryu took a step forward as the last of the treasures around him vanished.
A flash went off and when he appeared again, the first thing he saw were vast blue skies.
Ryu took another breath. This was the Seventh Heaven? The air smelled so... sweet.
lightsΝοvεl ?οm He could feel the countless gazes that converged upon him. He couldn't tell if he had emerged too early, or too late. But what he felt was a shame was that he didn't get a chance to see that annoyance's complete inheritance so he'd have a chance to shatter it again.
Of course, the "annoyance" Ryu was talking about was the Dao Sovereign of the Incomplete World, the Chaotic Space Sky God. Likely, only he would dare to refer to a Dao Sovereign in such a way without even having entered the Sky God Realms himself. And the idea of wanting to find an inheritance just to shatter it was even more ridiculous.
Still, Ryu really was hoping that there'd be another round.
As he breathed, the heavenly laws around him thrummed and golden runes pulsed. They danced along with his white hair, fluttering in the wind and painting a scene that was almost too perfect.
There were several individuals present, many of them the Sky God Representatives of their various factions. Among them, there were many God Realm women who wouldn't even care to give men of their own Realms a second look, let alone a World Sea Realm brat. And yet, at that moment, their air seemed to have been swept away by Ryu's breath.
Several of the male Sky Gods frowned, but they also didn't take action immediately.
They didn't recognize Ryu, but those golden runes were a different matter entirely. Just who was this child to have such a constitution, exactly?
Suddenly, the golden runes were absorbed into Ryu's body and vanished in a blink. At the same time, his cultivation took another step forward.
'More than the Heavenly Path for sure. This speed of cultivation is not bad.
Ryu's eyes suddenly opened and his gaze landed on a particularly striking beauty. Lightning crackled in her irises and her hair was a gorgeous azure color. He had sensed her stare for a extended while, and he returned a smile.
It was clear she was of the Azure Lightning Sect, one of the three most powerful factions of the Seventh Heaven. In addition, despite her youth, she radiated the aura of a True Sky God already. Impressive, indeed. Ryu believed she was definitely not more than a thousand years old.
"The Seventh Heaven sure does have his share of fairies."
The Sky God, one known widely as Fairy Azure or Fairy Lilac, was startled. The embarrassment of being caught by a junior made her blush slightly.
She looked away, but by the time she understood what she had done and tried to force herself to look back, Ryu had already vanished, a pair of translucent wings appearing to his back as he tore into the void.
"Where do you think you're going?!" A voice boomed.
They didn't want to rashly take action against Ryu, but that didn't mean that they would allow him to casually leave either. How could they not have questions?
"You want me to stick around and play politics with you all? Unfortunately, I have things to do. You can ask your juniors how I embarrassed them when they come out."
Fairy Azure's heart skipped a beat. Those words...
"You can ask your junior how I embarrassed them when they come."
... Why did they sound so similar to that man?
She blushed once more, even more profusely than the first time.
