YM778.TV Chapter 1332 Open Arms
His mother probably hadn\'t explained all these things because she didn\'t want him to feel guilty about the loss in her Blood Essence. She had already been so weak after risking her life to save him, if Ryu had known that she had given up any more, how would he have felt? But in Himari\'s eyes, she was a mother, it was her duty to protect her son and do all she could for him. Since she was injured anyway and would take some time to recover regardless, why not do it all in one go?
At the same time, Ryu had to lay down his pride. He wasn\'t the only one in his family with great talent, and the talents of those in his family extended beyond just what their fists could do.
This method used by his mother was absolutely ingenious, and Ryu himself would have never thought of it. Although it required some sacrifice on her part, Phoenixes were in a unique position to recover Blood Essence, a position that most other races simply weren\'t in. With the supplementation of the Ice Shrine and Life Shrine, so long as she would given time, this process of recovery would actually only make her stronger.
Little Silk was already at the standard of a True God Beast. This was the equivalent of a human who had broken into the Sky God Realm with a Lineal Dao.
According to Ryu\'s calculations, she would become a Perfect God Beast after breaking into the True God Beast Realm, so her talent would always be a step above that of her Sky God Realm.
As one could see, humans entering this Realm would be said to be in the Fragmented Sky God Realm, True Sky God Realm and so on. For beasts, they would be said to be in the Fragmented God Beast Realm, True God Beast Realm and so on. So this title was truly appropriate for Little Silk.
The only surprising thing was that a City Lord of the True Nether Realm\'s Fifth Plane had fallen so easily to a "mere" True God Beast. After all, a Lineal Dao was only the third rung of Daos, wouldn\'t a Sky God of the Fifth Plane be more powerful than that?
Not necessarily.
It had to be remembered that Daos tended to take a step down upon reaching Sky God Realms. This meant that a Sky God with a Lineal Dao likely had a Dynastic Dao, a Dao a step above, when they were younger. Some might even have taken two steps down and fallen from having formed a Sovereign Dao in their youth.
That was to say that while geniuses below the Sky God Realm of the Fifth Plane might have formed Sovereign Daos earlier on, they might only be Lineal Dao Sky Gods now despite being from a much higher plane.
Then, it also had to be considered that there were divisions amongst Daos. Little Silk was only a step away from the True God Beast Realm, and thus had a Dao Rune equivalent that was at the Peak of the Lineal Dao equivalent, while it was very likely that the City Lord had a much weaker Dao within the same Realm.
Finally, one also had to remember that beasts of the same level were much, much stronger than human or humanoid cultivators of the same level. The amount of strength their Dao Runes could manifest as compared to humans who comprehended their Daos instead of being born with them was on a completely different level.
Ryu had first hand experience with this. When he first came to the True Martial World, even a Common Grade beast had almost killed him, and that was despite the fact his Bloodlines were at the Black Grade at the time. Either way, the bottom line was that the City Lord hadn\'t stood a chance against the newborn Little Silk.
"The only unfortunate thing was that I still haven\'t found the source of Focus Qi...
Ryu\'s heart suddenly skipped a beat. \'No, I\'ve neglected something I\'ve been overlooking the seven corporeal souls.\'
Ryu had been subconsciously ignoring his seven corporeal souls because he felt that Focus Qi should probably be related to his mind, but his seven corporeal souls were instead related to diverse organs. However, he had a thought that maybe that was just his own bias. A lack of Focus Qi made you tired and unable to focus, but wouldn\'t that also happen in the body was in a terrible state?
What really broke through this line of thinking was another thought.
Blood Essence was always something that could only be given willingly, but never taken by force. Realizing his mother had given up such a precious thing to Little Silk, Ryu had another thought. Why was Blood Essence so mysterious? How could something corporeal be regulated by will power? And then it hit him like a truck.
Blood Essence and Focus Qi felt like two sides of the same coin.
One of them was corporeal and could be regulated by the will of the mind. The other was incorporeal and could be regulated by the physicality of the body.
They should both be hidden within the Seven Corporeal Souls!
Ryu\'s gaze gained an incomparable sharpness.
If he was correct, this would be a world changing matter. On the one hand, he would be able to create methods of increasing, training and replenishing his own Focus Qi rather than anticipating for it to naturally increase on its own.
But that was the last of the shocking matters...
If he was right, wouldn\'t he be able to do something that no one had ever done before...?
Wouldn\'t he be able to snatch Blood Essence by force?
If he could succeed in this matter, would he still have to worry about increasing the talent of his Bloodlines? Wouldn\'t those troublesome beasts arrive to chase him anyway? In that case, he would just greet them with open arms.
