Grand Ancestral Bloodlines

Chapter 1795 Beyond Perfect Control

1795 Beyond Perfect Control

Kaisa was hurriedly retreating, her rage being replaced by fear. Her battle strength was quickly plummeting, but she also realized that her qi wasn't circulating like she wanted to. Unfortunately for her, her mind was in too much turmoil to realize that the issue wasn't just Ryu's Dao, but the armor on her. 

This was precisely Ryu's second trump card. 

There were two ways to create an army formation. The first was a circulation method. They would all circulate the same technique and thus activate it when it resonated over a large enough region. 

This was how things worked in the True Martial World, and this was the very same method that Ryu had used back when he was helping out Mae's Dream Asura Clan. 

But in this world, they clearly used armors. 

Ryu was fascinated by this, but after he put one on, he already understood how it worked. 

The armor was like an extension of your Meridians, connecting to the body in a symbiotic relationship. 

The benefit of this was that you could both activate the formation and battle with your own Meridians at the same time. Of course, there were some limits to this, or else they wouldn't be forced to remain in the same formation, but it was still more flexible in this specific regard than True Martial World standards. 

However, there was a fatal weakness to this. 

Because the armor became an extension of the Meridian system, if it was impacted, it could cause clashes. This was why the armors could be easily detached in battle as well. Ryu didn't even have to put in much effort to take his own off. 

But for a genius of formations like Ryu, by analyzing the armors of the opposing armor, so long as he landed a few good hits, he could hinder their combat prowess without them even realizing. 

Just now, after their first few blows, Kaisa was already unable to bring out even 50% of their strength. 

After Ryu's sudden comprehension breakthrough, she stood even less of a chance, and those that came to support her ended up losing their combat strength before many exchanges were even made. 

Ryu realized now why it was that Temperament was so important. It wasn't just some amorphous, inexplicable energy. It was a form of comprehension in and of itself. 

If he had to describe it, it was like a Natural Enlightenment… 

Of the self. 

Ryu's rage boomed. No one seemed capable of stopping him on his path toward Kaisa. 

By now, the Dao Lords above had noticed the problem as well, but they were trapped in battle. It was hard for them to go out of their way to do something. 

"Dammit! We can't let her die!"

One of the Dao Lords was actually Kaisa's cousin, twice removed. They had a distant, but not too distant, relationship. Because he wasn't in the main family line, he could only protect Kaisa like this, but he knew that his chances of becoming a Sovereign also hinged on her. 

Even at injury to himself, he couldn't let her die. 

He turned his body and tanked a blow with a shoulder. Then he quickly sent out an attack toward Ryu. 

Ryu noticed this immediately. He had already activated Beyond Perfect Transcendent Control. 

His body roared and thrummed as he sent a fist up to the skies. 

The world looked like it was about to shatter, but beneath Beyond Perfect Transcendent Control, it was forcefully stabilized. With a rush, fist met fist, and the skies exploded. 

BANG!

Ryu coughed up a mouthful of blood and fell heavily to a single knee, but the result caused many eyes to open wide. 

His gaze flashed with rage as he looked up and memorized the expression of the man up above, and he also felt that Commander Monk was truly too fucking useless. 

To be clear, Commander Monk didn't allow Ryu to be attacked on purpose. He no longer dared to do something so blatant. 

It was just that he was far too weak. How could he allow something like this to happen? 

In the end, Ryu felt his inner organs shake and rattle, while Kaisa's cousin was forced to cough up a mouthful of blood as well, but because of Commander Monk's attack, not Ryu's attack. 

Ryu was suddenly swarmed before he could stand to his feet. The others hadn't dared to get close to a Dao Lord's attack, but the moment it dissipated, they rushed ahead. 

Ryu took a breath and didn't circulate Embryonic Qi, nor did he use his Birthed Phenomena. In a world like this one, he had to keep some cards to himself. 

With how dazzling he had been, no one would think that he was still holding more cards in his hands, but his eyes couldn't help but light up. 

Although Kaisa's cousin was another trash Dao Lord who could only be on par with Commander Monk, he had survived a strike. 

This first realm of Temperament, Guiding with the Heart… 

Was truly miraculous. 

Ryu coughed up a mouthful of blood as he blocked two strikes, but somehow he seemed to be even more valiant than before. 

Now that he knew the kind of power Temperament could give you, how could he allow this opportunity to fade? 

He would go all out. 

He wanted to see just how far Temperament alone would take him, and the first sacrifice down this path would be Kaisa herself. 

He stood to his feet and took a heavy stomp forward. The world trembled, and he roared. His Beyond Perfect Transcendent Control rolled off of him in waves and his strength multiplied by three times at worst. 

He bore down on Kaisa, closing in the distance. 

He could sense that the Dao Lords wanted to take another shot at him, but he had no hesitation in his actions. 

Since he couldn't take revenge on that Dao Lord for now, he would just have to make his heart bleed. 

Ryu's aura soared, and the skies rumbled. 

"[A God's Brush]!"
