Grand Ancestral Bloodlines

Chapter 1917  My

A cold storm seemed to brew around Ryu. Every step he took, the world quaked… well, not physically, but its laws seemed to bend and twist.

His Childe of Order and Chaos Constitutions were forming a net around him, and though this was usually suppressed, he wasn't in the mood to be bothered.

Strength.

He needed strength.

Ryu had always been surging after the pinnacle. It was something that he did for himself, though sometimes that pure purpose might be derailed by a want for revenge.

He had never expected to be stricken so hard from an internal source at all.

Although he could guess all the troubles and worries that Ailsa was facing, and he even felt guilt because it was his fault for being such a weak husband, there were still things that he was simply incapable of accepting. There were lines he would never accept crossing.

The bottom line of it all should be that a husband and wife should be forming a united front against the world. Ailsa pretending like she would have to solve everything on her own infuriated him far more than any villain or enemy ever had.

Ryu walked into the Rebirthing Cultus Sect's library. Those that saw him felt a shudder deep in their souls, and any intentions they had of trying to get close to him or speaking with him went out the window.

Ryu had displayed a ridiculous amount of strength. It was likely that no one believed there was anyone beneath the Lord Realm that could defeat him… at least none that were present now.

Although he had only been fighting against Transcendeds, to fight against so many in a row and to even come out with such victories wasn't something that they could just gloss over with ease.

Still, while they were afraid of Ryu, especially in his current state, they found his actions to be quite commendable.

He didn't raid their treasure houses first, at least not yet, but he had instead walked into their library.

This library was grand, having floating bookshelves that swirled and rotated in a paradise-like world. However, as grand as it seemed, it didn't hold any of their techniques. This place was one of pure and raw knowledge, nothing else.

From a layman's perspective, this was the most insignificant place that Ryu could think to take advantage of, but it was also the place that hid the most potential at the same time.

Ryu began to read, and soon information about his whereabouts and the gloomy air around him began to circulate.

What no one expected was that Ryu would spend months here, going through book after book relentlessly. Soon, he even began to chase after the golden bookshelves.

In the Rebirthing Cultus Sect's library, there was a grading system of bookshelves divided from black all the way up to gold.

It was an amazing sight, but it was more than just for looks. The higher caliber the bookshelf, the better and more important the knowledge. And because of that, they were extraordinarily difficult to catch.

What no one expected was that not only could Ryu catch them, he did so with absolute ease.

Everyone was in a state of complete and utter shock because these bookshelves were designed to only be caught by Sovereigns. An exceptionally strong Lord might be able to do so, but only under the right conditions and only with the help of others.

What they didn't see was the fact that these bookshelves had orbits. They seemed chaotic, and they were… but what sort of lower-case chaos was Ryu unable to calculate after completing his [Heavenly Dao Tree] technique?

He didn't even chase the bookshelf. He just stopped in a particular location and waited a few seconds. Then, it would sweep him up and he would spend the next month reading while sitting atop it.

Then, he would repeat.

The knowledge that Ailsa had gathered here was extraordinary. It wasn't something the likes of a True Sky God should even be capable of grasping, but Ryu had still read until the very last book.

He reaffirmed many things, changed his perspective on many more, and also finally comprehended the path of cultivation to its limits.

He finally truly understood what it meant to be a Sky God.

Until now, his comprehension of it had only been limited to Control and what aspects of Control he could exhibit, but he realized that it was deeper than this.

He could summarize his studies in a single sentence. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

'They say that the strongest of cultivators could make the Heavens their source and the Earth their cauldron… I don't believe that this is the case anymore…'

Ryu took a breath and sparkles of enlightenment spread out from him and covered the surroundings. Those that were enveloped by it felt that their bodies were undergoing a metamorphosis. They suddenly understood things they never had before, and to their greater shock, all of the Sovereigns and Dao Gods of the Sect rushed over.

At first, they were just there to see what the commotion was, but the moment they saw it… they too stepped into the range of influence of Ryu's Domain, basking in it with a shocked pulse in their heart.

How could a True Sky God possibly display such might? No, this wasn't might; it was something different than that.

It was one of the most envious abilities of the Mysteries of Heaven and Earth Pupils… [Focus]. But somehow, it seemed to have fused with [Insight] and [Third Perspective] into something entirely new, creating a power that didn't just seem to enlighten Ryu alone, but burrowed into the laws of Heaven and created an atmosphere that felt like reading these laws akin to an open book.

'My body is my Sky, my Dao, my Heavens, my… Mountain.'

Ryu's Dao broke through the Dome of the Heavens, and golden clouds spun wildly about in the skies.

His Dao had broken past the shackles of this world and transcended to something beyond.
