Grand Ancestral Bloodlines

[Bonus chapters thanks to Jackson :) (3/3)]

Ryu shook his head.

Was he technically a Dao God? Yes. He had a world entirely under his control, and by all metrics, within its bounds, he could exhibit all the skill of a Dao God.

The trouble was that the world was too weak, and that was part of the reason his Bloodlines had plummeted to the Common Grade.

In reality, his Bloodlines hadn't weakened to the Common Grade, that would be ridiculous. In fact, his Bloodlines, as of now, at least the combination of them working together, like to be the strongest Bloodline in the whole of the True Martial World.

Ryu didn't believe this was exaggerated at all. For all intents and purposes, he had unlocked the full potential of his Bloodlines and they were in complete harmony with one another.

So what was the issue?

The problem lay in the fact that his world could not possibly compare to the True Martial World. As a result, the True Martial World didn't even recognize his Bloodlines nor Grade them.

As a result of this, his Bloodlines when exhibited in this world were actually weaker than they should be...

But not by as much as one would think.

In fact, even with the weakening Ryu experienced, in practice, his Bloodline was still at the level of a God Grade Bloodline, and this was truly something to celebrate.

Who cared what this world graded his Bloodline as if he stood beyond them anyway? If there came a day where he could form a world worthy of being a Tenth Heaven, let alone being ranked as a God Grade Bloodline, it would be off the scale not due to this world not being bothered to grade it, but because it would be too great for this world to grade at all.

This was the benefit of having a world where the Faith and Karma were controlled by you, yourself.

But it was also because of this that Ryu had a shortcut to improving his world as well...contemporary romance

If he could gather large amounts of Faith in this world, and then use it to fuel his own, he would quickly find his own world improving.

But that wasn't all.

His Taboo methods. Namely, his Nine Pillars and their construction, had undergone their own change. He had released them from the shackles of Fate that bound them as well. As a result, they were able to exhibit their full might.

In the past, his Fragmented Body Realm was capable of bridging the gap to the False Body Realm of just the Seventh Heaven. However, now, it could do so for geniuses of the Ninth Heaven.

In fact, saying so described it far too simply. It had returned to a Core Technique that could stand toe to toe with the Nine Powers. As such, it was no longer any weaker than techniques of the absolute monsters of the Hegemony Branches of the Martial Gods, or the Inheritor Disciples of the Beast Mimicry Sect, Arcane Dancer Sect or Devouring Heaven Sect...

It wasn't just his Taboo methods that had been unlocked like this, but also a technique given to him by Hope, [Absolute Domain].

It was already an extraordinarily powerful method, but now it was on an entirely different level.

Then, there were the White Phoenix Heavenly Patterns. In the past, they couldn't seem to do much of anything at all, but now even the simplest strokes of them could exhibit Transcendent Control. When he layered them, he could exhibit Omniscient Control without even tapping into his eye's abilities.

The best part to Ryu though...

Without opening his eyes, he cut a wound open on his wrist. Then, within his body, he swallowed a drop of Embryonic Qi.

In that instant, the wound healed. But it wasn't just that it healed, but Ryu felt that that portion of his body had become marginally stronger at the same time, as though it had been refined to a greater level of perfection.

He realized that this was one part due to the Embryonic Qi itself, another part due to the shackles on his body being released of the normal limiters of cultivators of this world, but maybe most importantly because of his Beyond Perfect Extreme Spiritual Foundation.

It seemed that although his Embryonic Qi Meridians hadn't changed on the surface, they had done so subtly.

Whereas before they could only excavate potential he already had, no, over long periods of time, it seemed that they would be able to tap into potential he didn't, increasing his foundation beyond the realms of reason.

It could be said that the only part of his body that didn't undergo significant changes was his White Phoenix Spiritual Foundation, but he wasn't surprised by this in the slightest... nor did he care very much.

He had just stepped into a door that even the Phoenix Sky God didn't see coming. Like he had said before, he would make sure whoever they were paid, but before that, he would slowly, but surely, wipe the Martial Gods off the face of the map.

Ryu's eyes opened. He didn't do so with flash or flare, and yet reality before him collapsed the instant he did. It wasn't until he forcefully constricted his pupils that the world chilled and went back to normal.

Ryu looked up and back, finding a wobbly legged Elena standing there, leaning on the wall with a forearm.

Ryu chuckled. "How long did it take you to walk here?"

"Not long at all... I have no idea what you're talking about, Hubby," Elena said with a hoarse voice.

"Is that so?" Ryu smiled. "That sounds like a challenge."

Elena shivered. For the first time, she wondered if she actually wanted sex or not. But before she could react, she had already been hauled over Ryu's shoulder.

She hissed out a breath when he grabbed a handful of her ass, wondering how the hell she had gotten so sensitive.

Carrying her up the stairs like a sack of potatoes, Ryu's grin grew wider and wider, a finger slipping into her nether regions and allowing a drop of Embryonic Qi to soak into her fragrant juices.

Elena's mind went blank.
