Grand Ancestral Bloodlines

Ryu coughed up a mouthful of blood before quickly restraining his Primordial Wind Chaotic Qi.

Half of his injuries were actually due to this wild qi, but he had been forced to endure it because it was the only reason his Heavenly Winds had become strong enough to descend his downward trajectory.

Certain Primordial Chaotic Qis were more docile than others. Ryu had always thought that Primordial Wind Chaotic Qi was among those that he could control with greater ease, but it seemed that the True Martial World wouldn't allow him anything easy.

'I've made a large commotion and I'm not even entirely sure of where I am, who knows what kind of beasts are in this region? I need to be careful.'

Ryu looked at his legs and frowned. A fracture down the length of your bones was probably the most horrible bone break you could experience. It wasn't the first time Ryu had lamented being born with his mother's Bone Structure and not his father's. But, this time, it would have probably happened regardless.

The good news was that his Ice Jade Crystal Bone was highly adept at healing itself. But, it would still probably take some time.

At that moment, Little Silk fluttered down from the skies and landed on Ryu's shoulder, worriedly looking left to right. The little guy was so frail and light and it could probably not even deploy its wings and still flutter to the ground safely

But, its worry was likely because of the region they were in.

Though Ryu's Ice Jade Crystal Bone also made him a friend to beasts, he didn't dare to try it out in this place. Here, he would probably find himself easily oppressed by beasts.

Beasts had always tended to be more powerful than humans of an equivalent level. However, Ryu's talent had always been so far ahead of anyone he faced that he never even thought or worried about it. In this place, though, he would have no choice but to treat beasts with their proper respect.

Ryu restrained his aura and sat in absolute silence, willing his legs to heal faster. But, it seemed that the moment he had stepped onto the True Martial World, even this had slowed down.

At that moment, the ground quaked, causing Ryu to sigh.

No longer restraining himself, he sent out his Spiritual Sense, completely enveloping a looming monstrosity.

Well, monstrosity was a bit hard, it was just a bear which seemed to be covered in shards of grey stone, adding a bit of brightness to its dense black fur.

The shards surrounded its eyes like goggles, covered its limbs like gloves, and went down the length of its spine. Just a single step of its caused the very ground to quake.

Ryu didn't recognize this creature, but that hardly mattered. All he knew was that it was a Higher Seventh Order beast, sitting at the equivalent of the Immortal Ring Realm, and thus being a large problem for him.

The only decent news was that this stone bear only seemed to have a Common Grade Bloodline. But, even that hardly put Ryu at ease.

In Sacrum, a Common Grade Bloodline would hardly even let you reach the Spiritual Severing Realm, but now there was one here at the Seventh Order. Plus, Ryu's Bloodlines had only just recovered to the Black Grade and now his maneuverability was hampered.

However, after sighing, a spark lit in Ryu's heart.

"I would suggest you scram, I'm not in a good mood right now," Ryu said coldly.

In response, the stone bear roared, the power of its bellow making Ryu's hair whip backward, his face deforming beneath the pressure.

The stone bear charged, its stone gloved paw swinging with a might that made Ryu feel that he would be crushed before it even landed.

The fury in Ryu's gaze lit. He had already been forced to this state, all to avoid the scrutiny of a young man he had no choice but to admit was stronger than him. Now, a piece of trash of the Common Grade actually thought to take his life.

He had been forced to take one step back after another ever since he came to this world. He was already over it.

Ryu's palm slammed into the ground. Ignoring the pain of the lingering fractures, he launched himself into the air.

He flipped, remaining upside down as he soared over the stone bear's side.

The beast showed a level of agility it shouldn't have had, turning back quickly and swiping out.

This time, the ground responded, causing a wave of stone to pierce out from it and appear at Ryu's landing spot.

Ryu's expression flashed coldly.

He solidified the air again, striking downward just before the wave of sharp stone could reach him.

His torso flexed, his hips torquing as he began to spin in the air. Taking advantage of the surge of wind, he pushed himself further up and out of the range of the surging earth.

When he reached a height of three meters, he realized he couldn't go up any further, but this was all the distance he needed.

Still upside down, he pulled out his grandfather's bow from his back, drawing an arrow and pouring his comprehension into the Glove of Order.

When Ryu saw the pitifully skinny and weak arrow that formed, his fury seemed to reach a tipping point.

'<Thirteen Soaring Azures: Singe>!'

The weak arrow blazed to life, the faint call of a bird echoing as the twang of a bowstring released.

The arrow shot through the charging bear's brows, tearing through its skull, down its spine, and out its back.

BANG!

The arrow burrowed into the ground, the faint call of a bird still echoing.

Ryu landed on a palm, his bow still being held in his other hand.

In the next moment, the stone bear combusted, falling into a pile of ash.

Even seeing such a scene, Ryu didn't seem to be satisfied, but the beast was already dead. There was nothing else he could do to it even if he wanted to.
