Grand Ancestral Bloodlines

Ryu felt the changes for a long time before adjusting himself and accepting what he was sensing as fact. Things were not always as good as they seemed, but at least in this context, it seemed as though it was more good than it was bad.

His Embryonic Qi had become a bit of a sore spot for him, and rightfully so.

Much like everything else, his Embryonic Qi had changed after he stepped into the Sky God Realm as well. It became akin to a raging river, whereas before it was just a trickle of milky-white droplets. And yet, it still took him using over a third of it before he could actually heal himself.

There were always trade-offs with power, he understood that. But this was too much.

A single drop of Embryonic Qi had been able to heal a Transcendent Sky God like Eska back to a full bill of health, and yet it took so much of it for him to move the needle for himself.

Granted, most of the injuries "Eska" had suffered back then had been taken on by Isemeine, but even so, it might have taken a second drop at worst for Ryu to fix them up even if that was the case.

It felt like he had been granted great power, before an anchor was strapped to his ankle just before he was tossed into the ocean.

But at the very least, he had gotten a portion of that back just now.

'An amplification?' Ryu thought this, but immediately shook his head. That wasn't what happened just now.

'It found the rules of my Martial Art and broke them? What a useless ability. The punch was more powerful, yes, but it was errant, hard to control, and it could even end up harming me. Plus, in service of doing that, it stripped me of my Childe of Order constitution, though Childe of Chaos seemed to have gained a small boost. Even so, it wasn't enough to offset the loss, not at all.'

Ryu frowned. He didn't like that feeling at all. If the ability of the White Bird was just to tear down everything he had created, it was really too useless.

He looked toward the White Bird silently flapping its wings. It looked almost like a real creature, solid and without the slightest hints of transparency. If it wasn't for the fact a beast of this caliber should be much larger than the less than three-meter wingspan this bird had, it could have truly looked like a creature of legend.

'Forget it. For now, this will just have to be enough.'

Ryu dismissed the White Bird and only now did he seem to realize just how tired he was. It had already been over a year and this was the longest time he had ever spent solely focused on his improvement.

He imagined that if he had spent this much time in a single sitting back before he was in the Sky God Realm, his progress would have sensed much greater. But this was just a bit of a reality check for him as well.

Progress in the Sky God Realm would take time, and that was something he simply didn't have.

'Once I wake up, I will break into the Middle Fragmented Sky God Realm.'

He collapsed into his bed and fell into a deep sleep, vaguely wondering where Eska had gone before he drifted off.
