Grand Ancestral Bloodlines-Novel

Chapter 1491 Pesky Fly

Ryu didn't know how long passed, but his mother did eventually let him go. Finally, he was able to take out what he had prepared.

He knew that he would be returning to his mother's side, so how could he not remember her ailments?

Himari had made it quite far into the Sky God Realms, but that didn't mean that Ryu was helpless, especially since he had the treasures of the Frost Clan and the little woman by his side.

In the years he was away, the little woman managed to make it to the Omniscient Sky God Realm and was already striving for the Dao Lord Realm. It turned out the environment of the blackhole was a tonic to her rather than being toxic. In fact, it was also in part thanks to her that he was able to succeed in the end.

While it made him curious about who she really was, he was far more interested in how she could help his mother.

Due to his foolish actions, his mother had given up quite a bit of her lifespan. And, because she was at the standard of the True Martial World now instead of Sacrum, her lifespan was likewise shorter as a result. Every year counted, and he couldn't allow her to stay like this for long.

Luckily, she hadn't actually ended up transferring the lifespan to him as he hadn't needed it, ultimately. But one couldn't just casually pool their life together into a drop and then suck it back up as though nothing had happened.

After understanding the situation, the little woman had constructed a pill perfect for the situation.

The result was near instant. Rosiness returned to Himari's cheeks and her aura flourished. To Ryu's astonishment, her aura likewise continued to rush forward like a tidal wave, entering the Transcended Sky God Realm and even soon knocking on the door of the Omniscient Sky God Realm.

This could only mean one thing. His mother's insights into her Dao were far beyond what her current cultivation realm dictated. In all likelihood, she was only restricted by the environment here. There wasn't enough qi, so much so that even a healing pill had allowed such a result.

Ryu didn't think twice and simply handed his mother all of the cultivation treasures of the Frost Clan.

"Little Ryu, this is inappropriate."

Ryu watched his mother's brows scrunch up and her lips press into a thin line. He knew that look all too well; she wasn't happy at all.

However, he solely laughed. "You don't need to worry, I have much more treasures than this."

"I don't believe you." Himari uttered with a narrowed gaze. It seemed that she might bend Ryu over her knee if he said just one more ridiculous thing.

Ryu coughed. "Okay, well, I don't have any more easily usable treasures like this, but my wealth is definitely beyond just this."

He held his mother's hand and guided her Spiritual Sense, under his protection, toward his Spiritual Foundation.

"I have more treasures than I can use in a lifetime."

"This... isn't the Phoenix Sky God's Spiritual Foundation," Himari said after a long while, looking into Ryu's eyes.

He knew immediately what his mother was worried about. Although Ryu wasn't some moral beacon of light, his mother was quite different from himself. She wouldn't be happy if she thought he had stolen a Spiritual Foundation from someone else.

"This is my Spiritual Foundation," Ryu explained with a smile. "My Original Spiritual Foundation."

Himari's eyes widened before the implications made her temper flare. If not for the fact her son was right before her, the land for countless millions of miles might have been completely destroyed.

"Well, I have it back now, no?" Noᴠelꜰire

Himari only somewhat calmed down after hearing those words, her nose scrunching up.

Ryu recognized that look as well. It usually only came when she was thinking about something distasteful, and at this point, it was more likely than not Primus.

The thought had barely been formed when the skies shook and a middle-aged man appeared high above. He looked down calmly, nothing like a person who had been chasing another for years.

Himari's eyes sharpened as she hid Ryu to her back, apparently arranged for battle. Despite seeing her grandfather-in-law, her expression was quite fierce.

She had been married to Titus for millions of years, but she hadn't seen this man before even a single time. Instead, she recognized him purely based on his aura.

"Ignore him, mother. He's just a pesky fly."

Ryu pulled his parent deeper into the Life Shrine. What he found most amusing about the situation was that he had a not-so-unfounded confidence that Primus wouldn't be able to enter the Shrine even if he wanted to.

As expected, Primus didn't move, and his expression also didn't change.

"I'll be absorbing those treasures into my Spiritual Foundation now, mother. I don't know how extended it'll take, but probably not too much."

"Why does the grandfather-in-law seem to be looking for you?" Himari asked.

Ryu sighed. He might call Primus directly by his name, but Himari didn't do so. This wasn't out of fear, but rather because his grandfather still called Primus' father even after all he had done. It was purely out of respect for Saint Tatsuya that Himari still called Primus by this title.

"I would take his gift to sever Karma, so he uttered he'd follow me around for 10 years. It's quite annoying."

Himari, though, actually sighed a breath of relief when she heard this. Didn't this mean that she didn't need to worry about her son as much?

Ryu smiled and found a place to meditate, his heart reaching a state of calm quite quickly.

He looked toward the treasures floating within his Beyond Perfect Extreme Spiritual Foundation. They all seemed docile and silent now. Hopefully, it would remain like that as he began.

It was about time he saw what this Spiritual Foundation of his was really about.

And then, it would be time to become a Sky God.
