Grand Ancestral Bloodlines

Chapter 1952  The Result

Cultivation wasn\'t just about holing yourself up in a room and pressing forward, hoping to see the best. It was also about experiencing life.

Part of the reason Ryu was so at ease without having ever entered such a long-term closed door seclusion before was precisely because his eyes gave him a huge advantage in this aspect compared to other people.

He tended to improve by leaps and bounds because much like the moniker of his eyes made clear… he could see through the Mysteries of Heaven and Earth.

However, he had seen too much, done too much, accumulated too much in the years of life. But he had never been able to settle down and just put that knowledge to good use.

When he finally entered his first bout of closed door cultivation, all of that experience burst through at once.

Now that he had reached the end of that sprint, though, he had a lot more accumulation to do before he could benefit from such a closed door cultivation again. But what Ryu had realized after these handful of weeks he had been free was…

Maybe it wouldn\'t take that long after all.

Ryu didn\'t realize just how much his Cultivation Realm was holding back his eyes until now. He had unlocked all 999 seals and he had thought that that would be the end of it. But he had underestimated just how much his eyes had to suppress themselves just to continue to coexist with his body.

Right now, his eyes were so powerful that even if that Dao Sovereign of the Lumina Clan tried to pluck them out again, he might not even be able to pierce his fingers into his eye socket and end up rebuffed.

It wasn\'t just a matter of the robustness of his eyes, but its techniques as well. He could just… see so much more.

That strike he levied against the finger that descended from the skies is the perfect example of this.

Back then, he used [Dao Acupoint] and actually found a weakness in the attack of the Heavens.

Of course, that wasn\'t as impressive as it sounded. That was because the attack was formed of all the elements his Body Realm cultivation was forged of. And thanks to his Realm Heart, all of the Holy Worlds he absorbed were taken beyond Perfect Extreme.

That was all to say that Ryu\'s comprehension of the elements was actually far beyond what this world was even capable of. If he couldn\'t find a flaw in them, then he would be the fool.

Still, it was a shocking matter nonetheless. It felt as though all of his strength had taken an enormous leap forward and he was beginning to see through more of the secrets of the Black Veined Spirit Seeking Lilies.

It had to be remembered that back when Ryu was fighting against those horde of Sky Gods of the Martial Gods he had ended up swallowing a large amount of Black Veined Spirit Seeking Lilies in a desperate attempt.

Those Black Veined Spirit Seeking Lilies allowed him to use Heaven\'s Gate, or rather the unmutated form of Heaven\'s Gate, that allowed him to tap into his potential trillions of years into the future.

However, because he went overboard back then, he lost his eyesight…

The truth was that if not for a very special circumstances, Ryu would have likely lost access to his eyes forever. Luckily… he was an Emperor Phoenix.

In those moments, just before his mother gave up her life for him, he unlocked his Rebirth Talent. But that wasn\'t all.

That was because his Rebirth Talent had mutated as well.

Rather than nine chances at Rebirth, he was given a single one. However, that single chance at Rebirth was unlike any other.

If not for his eyes, Ryu would have likely become a true monster right then and there, accessing the largest potential the Shrines had to offer and becoming a talent rarely seen across Existence.

However, his eyes had ended up swallowing up all that potential for itself.

These were all things that Ryu had only been able to make vague guesses about in the past, but now he was absolutely certain of the truth, ironically thanks to the current strength of his eyes.

Still, although he had missed out on becoming a shocking genius in a single bound, Ryu didn\'t regret that for even a single moment. That was because he was starting to understand the kind of monstrosities his eyes were becoming.

The Black Veined Spirit Seeking Lilies were products of Sacrum. Alone, they shouldn\'t have had a huge effect on Ryu\'s current self. However, because of the coincidence of the mutation of his Rebirth Talent, everything changed.

As a result, the Black Veined Spirit Seeking Lilies and their medicinal effects received a sort of boost and Rebirth of their own. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

These were exceptionally rare Spiritual Herbs designed to help talents break their limits. You were only meant to take one in the first place, not absorb hundreds of lilies like Ryu had.

All at once, then, his eyes were given a concentrated Rebirth unlike any other, taking more than 99% of Ryu\'s special Rebirth mutant Talent for itself.

And the result…

Ryu waved a hand through seeming empty air, but he could practically feel every particle. And soon after, it felt like he was running his hands through the Karmic Strings of the world.

When all of this settled down, a light smile tugged on the corner of his lip.

While it couldn\'t be said that he could see through the future… he was probably as close to it as a person of his cultivation could get.
