Grand Ancestral Bloodlines

Chapter 607 Mutation

Hatred took root in Ryu's heart. It was so oppressive that even with Breath of Life, he found it difficult to even breathe. If it wasn't for a subtle spring breeze that hung around his Spiritual Sea, he might have truly become a Demon in that very moment.

He had never felt so much rage in his life. It was one matter for logic to dictate that it was unlikely that his entire family would have survived this ordeal, but for it to be placed before him as a fact rather than a deduction he could ignore in favor of a vain hope… Quite simply, it hurt.

It was tearing pain that felt like thousands of needles tearing into his heart, slicing apart his vessels and laying his flesh bare for the scavengers of the Martial World to peck and eat at. He wanted everything and anything to crumble, for nothing at all to exist any longer.

It was a fury he couldn't even speak into words, a kind of fury that caused even the world itself to overturn.

The resentment within the Ice Devil Legacy World doubled, tripled and increased even by tenfold in the blink of an eye. The suffocating presence made those that remained fall to their knees. Even the skies above, having long since recovered from their battle, became painted in red, arcs of violet lightning crackling above in rolling clouds that looked like a fog of blood.

Deep within Ryu's bloodline, a shackle was shaken loose before shattering completely. However, before it could even fully manifest, it mutated.

Booming thunder shattered space, bolts of lighting as think as ancient tree trunks connected the skies and the earth. Everywhere they passed destruction and chaos was wrought.

Splinters spanning dozens of kilometers spread, fires that set pillars of wild flames ablaze raged, ash sprinkled down as everything was torn asunder.

Everywhere the lightning passed, space lost its integrity. Large black voids appeared but no longer repaired themselves nearly as quickly. It felt like the world itself was revolting as the Legacy World continued to crumble in on itself.

At that moment, Gold Leaf City began to be affected as well. The crimson skies began to spread overhead and wild, sparkling arcs of violet lightning began to appear randomly in space as they tore a path out of the Ice Devil Legacy World.

Shock took hold of the elders. They had still been discussing how to deal with the issues that surrounded Ryu, trying to decide whether this should be reported to the higher ups or not, only for this to happen.

Looking at the arcs of violet lightning, their hearts shook. A deep rooted fear hooked them to their spots, making it difficult even for them to move a single inch. They felt that if even a small spark touched their skin, they would be eradicated without even a chance to fight back.

BANG!

It was right then that a violent whirlpool of space and dark qi imploded. It was clear immediately that the Legacy World had collapsed, but such a thing left them all in shock.

A Legacy World, especially one created by an expert with the last of their cultivation, was just as sturdy as any small world, albeit much smaller than one. The destruction of a Legacy World would never happen like this, even after its creator truly passed on. Usually, it would fuse into the void before vanishing completely. A collapse like this could only mean that it was actively destroyed.

But who could possibly have such strength?! Even they as elders weren't confident in doing such a thing!

"RUN!"

It was like a blackhole was descending. Everything was swallowed up, the entire core of the city wiped out, leaving nothing but an endless abyss and a vile resentment that hung in the air.

Just like this, the largest city of the Blossom Plane was obliterated. The life and death of those who had entered the Legacy World would be unknown for a long while. It wouldn't be until several days later that it was learned that for some odd reason, these individuals had been randomly teleported across the Plane, completely confused in how they had gotten there.

…

Even Ryu could have never expected for his Storm Talent to have awakened under the stimulation of a mutation. Due to the fusion of his Lightning and Rage Flames, his Lightning had suddenly gained the character of rising in strength along with his fury as well. The result was his emotion triggering his Qilin Lightning to reach a new level and for his Storm Talent to be awoken in full force.

The Awakening of his Talent wasn't as simple as it seemed on the surface.

Until now, Ryu's Qilin Lightning was just that, Lightning. Though it had a strong yang character to it, that was about it. It didn't have the special abilities his flames had and at best, it could be said to be a great counter to yin type cultivators.

However, it had to be remembered that Ryu didn't need to 'awaken' his lightning. Of course, he gained an ease of using it after he awakened his Spirit Body, something that also made reaching the Ruler Realm as easy as breathing, but he didn't have to awaken it like he had to with his Rage Flame or his Ice Flame.

The same way the first major dividing line between Fire Dragons was whether or not they could awaken their Rage Flame, the first major division between Lightning Qilin was whether or not they could awaken their Storm Talent.

Why was this so important? It was because once the Storm Talent was awakened, the true prowess of Lightning would begin to make its prowess known.

The Dark Phoenix was the gate keeper of Death. The Ice Phoenix? Life. The Fire Phoenix? Reincarnation. The Fire Dragon? Fury, and more importantly, the ability and propensity to snatch from the Heavens.

As for the Lightning Qilin?

They were the harbingers of Tribulation. And, the current Ryu had more than just a single Judgment he wanted to render.
