Grand Ancestral Bloodlines

Chapter 1501 Isn\'t that--?

Of course it would be the case that his Chaotic Silk Meridians would fly the straight and narrow from now on. Other than the fact it would support two Spiritual Foundations now, it couldn\'t have been any simpler. He just had to progress both.

If anything, the only anchor holding him back was his Beyond Perfect Extreme Spiritual Foundation. This was because improving it was a headache.

Although he wouldn\'t have to gather anymore treasures, just the sheer amount of energy it would take was mind-numbing. By the time he was ready to enter the False Sky God Realm, he would probably have to have absorbed as much as one would have to in order to enter the True Sky God Realm. And from there, it would only get worse.

Of course, that didn\'t include the White Phoenix Spiritual Foundation either, so just to become a False Sky God, Ryu would have to gather the average energy of someone closer to a Perfect Sky God.

\'This is just asinine. My talent isn\'t even certainly better than those of the Eighth Heaven or higher, and I\'m sure they don\'t have to go through this much trouble...\'

Ryu chuckled at himself and shook his head.

His talents were great, but they had yet to synergize like those of the Eighth Heaven and above had. Due to this, not only was he not 100% confident just yet in having surpassed them, their progression was also leagues simpler than his own.

\'Perfect. Just how I like it. I love getting kicked, Heavens. Keep it coming.\'

Ryu was in a great mood, honestly. None of what he was reading fazed him, but when he caught sight of something else, his heart skipped a beat.

EmbryonicEssenceEmbryonicEssence

The words echoed in his ears and he subconsciously knew that it was referring to his second pair of Meridians, a pair that he had honestly ignored outside of its ability to heal him.

He cross-referenced what he was perusing with what was coming from the Beyond Perfect Extreme Spiritual Foundation and he settled into a certain understanding.

Indeed, the Beyond Perfect Extreme Spiritual Foundation was able to form a second pair of Meridians for you based on your first. However, it couldn\'t do this with just any pair of Meridians, or at the very least, you would need to bring a pair you had to an "Extreme" first.

Ryu, obviously, didn\'t have to put in so much effort. His Chaotic Silk Meridians were already at that level, and so he gained his second pair immediately.

What was interesting, though, was the fact that this second pair of Meridians, the Embryonic Essence Meridians as the Heavens called it, had never existed before.

This was odd because Ryu was fairly certain that there was a counterpart to his Chaotic Silk Meridians that granted use of Essence as opposed to Chaos Qi. So he was wondering why he acquired this pair of Meridians instead of the natural selection.

The answer, though, seemed to be hidden within him.

His Chaotic Silk Meridians were connected with his White Phoenix Spiritual Foundation. The two had a spiritual sort of connection and they were as one. Even now, his Embryonic Essence Meridians hadn\'t connected with his White Phoenix Spiritual Foundation, and was only connected to his Beyond Perfect Extreme Spiritual Foundation.

According to the Heavens, the first thing he should do was complete this link and thus the loop of his Meridians. This way, he would have two Meridian Pathways and two Spiritual Foundations, all of which were interconnected.

However, this wasn\'t what had truly caught his attention. What was more interesting was the implied connection between his Embryonic Qi, the White Phoenix, and the White Heavenly Patterns, not to mention the mysterious white flame he still could not properly pronounce the name of.

The number of benefits for completing this link and loop within his body were too many to name, but just to paint the picture of how important this matter was, once Ryu succeeded in forming the connection, he would be able to use his Embryonic Qi as the conduit for his White Phoenix Heavenly Patterns.

It had to be remembered that the White Phoenix Heavenly Patterns could break the laws of the Heavens much like the Unbalance Mantra could.

If he could use his Embryonic Qi in this way, the limitations it had begun to stack in its ability to heal his body would practically vanish. On top of that, Ryu would finally gain a method of striking with his Embryonic Qi as well.

Heavenly Patterns might as well have been techniques distilled down into fundamental runes. This breakthrough would be the equivalent of Ryu suddenly gaining a depository of technique methods for his Chaos Qi!

That also gave him another idea. Were there Heavenly Patterns that he could use that would be compatible with his Chaos Qi?

He wasn\'t sure. Even his Dark Phoenix Heavenly Patterns were firmly on the side of Order. Just because something was dark didn\'t mean that it was chaotic. Death, in some ways, was the ultimate sign of Order.

Once again, he was getting ahead of himself, though, because completing this loop didn\'t seem like a simple task.

For one, the White Phoenix Spiritual Foundation was a bit... unruly. But that wasn\'t his main concern.

The only time it was "simple" to form such a link was during the Spiritual Severing Realm. The second easiest time was meditating on the experience of the Spiritual Severing Realm\'s success.

Ryu had not only skipped over the Spiritual Severing Realm, he had no experience with this at all.

In addition, he was a Sky God now. Changing his body prior to Godhood was an almost simple task, but now it was like everything had been locked into place.

Given the strength of his body, if he wanted to succeed, he would need at least a Perfect Grade God Herb. But even that wouldn\'t help his lack of experience in the matter at all.

\'Fantastic,\' Ryu thought, a little bit less amused. \'Hm?\'

He suddenly gazed up and smiled. What was this guy doing back home?

"Hey, over there. Isn\'t that Primus\' disciple?"

The man in the distance faltered before his fury streaked through the skies.

"Ryu! You son of a bitch! If I don\'t tear you limb from limb -!"

A string of curse words echoed through Sacrum.
