Grand Ancestral Bloodlines-Novel

Chapter 685 Poor Guy

Ryu was already prepared to move to the next city. He hadn't expected to resonate with the staff so quickly, but ultimately he felt that maybe even he, himself, had underestimated just the kind of prowess was hidden within his Heavenly Pupils.

The reality of the matter was that Ryu's pupils had just stepped into the Cosmic Realms. What did this mean? It meant that he had a grasp of a Realm that only those who had stepped into the Cosmic Seed Realm could compare to. The source of this ᴄontent is No(v)elFire.net

Having stepped into this level, Ryu's Heavenly Pupils could now start seeing through mysteries on a Cosmic level, the very same level Sky Gods would.

Of course, Ryu had yet to reach the level of Sky Gods, but it was only a matter of time. Thanks to the endless resources Ryu had, he could easily unlock several of his Heavenly Pupils Seals in a day. Within a year or two, he would have unlocked all 999 and there would, theoretically, be no mystery he couldn't see through in the martial world.

The only reason it would even take so long was because of the level of energy Ryu would have to absorb. Cosmic level qi was still beyond the current Ryu so Ailsa had chosen this incremental approach so that there wouldn't be any adverse effects, but this much was already extremely fast.

This was all to say that the Monarch Realm, a level that had once been lofty to Ryu, was worth practically nothing before him.

To put things into perspective, a genius of the Cosmic Seed Realm would have long since formed a Dominion, an Inheritance level a step above the Monarch Realm. Taking a step back, comprehension was usually as follows…

The Heir Realm was the equivalent of the Awakening and Pulse Opening Realms. The Impose Realm matched with the Qi Refinement and Spiritual Severing Realms. The Ruler Realm, the Divine Vessel and Connecting Heaven Realm. Then, the Monarch Realm coincided with the Immortal Ring and Path Extinction Realm.

However, because comprehending Inheritances was so difficult, most had comprehension that lagged behind their true cultivation. This was why it took a 'genius' to have comprehended a Dominion at the Dao Pedestal and Cosmic Seed Realms, while only supreme geniuses could comprehend Inheritances a step above their decided level.

When things were laid out like this, the strength of the Mysteries of Heaven and Earth Pupils became clear. The Dominion Realm was split between one Immortal and another Cosmic Realm. This was to say that Ryu's pupils were already well suited to seeing through the mysteries of the most powerful Dominions in existence.

Understanding this, it became clear that to the current Ryu, the Monarch Realm was like child's play. In fact, if not for the odd regression of his Inheritances, his strength would have already stepped into an all new level just by virtue of his Heavenly Pupils…

This was the strength of these pair of eyes that so many coveted… As they continued to evolve, they would only grow more powerful…

Now, it was clear that the sudden appearance of these individuals, all of whom were clearly intent on blocking Ryu's way, was more than just a little nuisance. He was already prepared to move onto the next city now.

"It's him! He's the one!"

The young man, bandaged head to toe, suddenly began to cough violently in his agitation and almost passed out again. The ones around him immediately became agitated. They had wanted him to stay in bed, but he had insisted on coming out like this. Now he was suffering for it all the more.

The face of another young man by the bandaged youth's side darkened.

"Do—Dojo Master Rober!"

Surf hurriedly gave a greeting to the young man before him. There wasn't a single Dojo Master of this city that Surf didn't recognize. He had no choice. After all, if he wanted to progress in his craft, he had to know who to impress and who he couldn't afford to offend.

In truth, Surf felt that Ryu most definitely couldn't be offended either. So, his only real plan was to respectfully greet Rober as a sign of respect then back away before whatever inevitable fireworks that were about to set off, did exactly that.

Rober nodded faintly, but his gaze had locked onto Ryu. He frowned when he saw the latter's mask before looking up toward the spiraling lights. His gaze couldn't help but narrow.

In truth, though Ryu broke the records, it wasn't suddenly enough for the Virga Clan to come out on bended knee to beg him to join them. This was just one of the dozens of games the Virga Clan had designed. In addition, it was considered a youth record. So, the weight of it all wasn't as substantial as it seemed in the greater picture.

However, to Rober, it was very important because he could be considered to be a 'youth' in this context. If Ryu was so skilled within their age and cultivation bracket, he would definitely be difficult to deal with. He was just one of the Dojo Masters, it wasn't like he was an Armament holder. Dojo Masters like him didn't lose often, but it wasn't rare either.

Still, Amery, the bandaged youth, was a member of the Virga Clan. He couldn't just let this matter slide without reason, it would be detrimental to both his reputation and that of their family's.

But, who knew that even before Rober could make a move to speak, Ryu would have already stepped down from the platform and begun walking toward the exit of the city?

Rober was stunned silent. Was he seeing correctly?

"Hey!" Rober finally snapped.

Ryu's head turned back. "Do you need something? I'm busy."

Rober's brow twitched, a vein pulsing along his forehead. He didn't know who this young man was, but why was it that his every action made a person want to strangle him to death?

Ailsa nodded with sympathy. 'Poor guy.'
