Chapter 1587 Strength

Ryu felt his body settle down.

It was an odd feeling, and it was almost embarrassing because he immediately thought of exactly what it felt like. He had spent a millennia as a mortal, dealing with much of everything else a mortal dealt with. Although, thankfully, his quality of food was so excellent that he didn't need to defecate, passing gas was just a natural part of the process anyway.

He would have shook his head and laughed at himself. It really did feel like he had been holding in a fart for too long and finally got the chance to release it. A bloating he hadn't even known was in his body was released and his skin rippled with a golden light that spread into the surroundings.

His mind felt at peace. No, his mind had already been mostly at peace, but it was like his boy had entered such a realm as well. It took him a moment to understand what it was, but then that eventually became clear as well.

The tranquility of his Incorporeal Souls had been transferred to his Corporeal Souls. It was like his body had entered a deep sleep and had come back feeling refreshed.

It felt amazing.ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ Novᴇ(l)Fɪre.net

Ryu released his grip and his excessive use of Focus Qi finally came to a stop, but the feeling only dimmed somewhat, not vanishing entirely.

Even without his hands on the reins the entire time, Selheira's Primordial Yin swam around, giving his Bloodlines order and structure they had never had before. It was able to naturally find a method of pulling them together so that they could bring out their full potential rather than holding one another back.

Ryu's eyes opened and he shifted slightly. Suddenly, a burst of silvery runes appeared around him.

lightsnοvεl He frowned, not quite understanding. His eyes narrowed.

'That much...?'

His guess seemed to be correct as he shifted again.

His Childe of Order Constitution was different from other such Constitutions or even the origin of said Constitution itself. It was based entirely on his comprehension rather than the natural instinct the latter would have. This meant that when he acted, he would have to pull against his own instincts and act in a way that was often opposite to his natural method of doing things.

This was a very worthwhile tradeoff, though. Doing so obviously put him at a greater advantage than disadvantage as having the Heavens harmonize with your every movement was a great boost to his strength.

And yet, there would always be certain movements that were harder than others, and it didn't help that there were many aspects of him and his foundation that were very clearly not in alignment with all that was accepted... meaning very much taboo.

But with the harmony of his Bloodlines, he found that it was even easier. The burden had been thrown from his mind and his movements were far more fluid.

'Interesting...'

It wasn't just his Childe of Order constitution, but his qi flowed smoother, his Vital Qi especially seemed to move through his body a hundredfold faster. He couldn't help but wonder if this latter change put him above others or if it was just putting him at the same starting line.

Truthfully, Ryu never bothered to learn any techniques that utilized Vital Qi. It was hard to justify using them when his Chaos Qi was so much more effective. Even back when he had to be much more cautious with its use, picking out an infinite number of qis was far better than using the Vital Qi of his rebelling Bloodlines.

He wondered if he should actually learn some now. The Body Realm definitely had its own set of methods, much like the Mental Realm did. Plus, he also had yet to learn any techniques in the Sky God Realm.

He chose to shelve the idea for now. It wasn't that he felt it was a waste of time... well, not entirely. It was just that one's focus in the Sky God Realms should definitely be their Dao and using it to maximize the strengths and minimize the weaknesses of your body.

Essentially, Ryu should be creating his own techniques; that's what the strongest did.

Plus, the last time he had learned a large slate of techniques, he stopped using them not even a month later because he had already outgrown them. Learning techniques of a certain grade when your cultivation speed put most to shame was little more than wasting your time.

He had seen this first hand during his battle with Starlight. The latter was exceptionally young and he had yet to learn the Core Techniques of the Fading Star Sect. Aside from his Constellations, he had nothing else.

That hadn't been stupid of Starlight, it had been the smartest thing to do. Starlight's cultivation speed was obviously exceptional as well. He had been a Realm below Ryu, and now they were in the Fragmented Realm together. By contrast, Ryu had spent all that time learning techniques for his Great Swordstaff, only to have to abandon it in the middle of their battle because it was revealing too many weaknesses to exploit.

This was why focusing on which methods you used was far more important, and also why Ryu's main concentration was on combining his paths rather than finding new ones to follow.

Toward that end, he felt that he was much freer to do that. At the very least, his Bloodlines wouldn't restrict him.

In the past, he could only display the Lord Grade level if he kept them separate. But now, he could fuse them and maintain the same level without any drop-off, and the result was astonishing.

Strength that had been buried impossibly deep within him spilled out from a slight clench of his fist.

In that instant, he had gone from the Seventh Heaven equivalent of a False Sky God's body, to without a doubt the equivalent of an Eighth Heaven False Sky God's body.
