Ryu was immersed in a blazing aura that spiraled into the skies. His Realm Heart had already acted, taking this world and pushing it toward absolute perfection. Let alone being of the Omniscient Grade, only a rare few God Grade Holy Worlds could match up to it.

However, even as he was immersed in this aura, Ryu didn't seem to care about it much at all. In fact, he was still focused on the Holy Worlds he needed.

'Lightning... Earth... Space... Time..."

These were what he needed, but Ryu wasn't sure if he could even find a Holy World of Space and

Time.

After strong-arming Star River into not wasting his time anymore, he managed to find out the location of everything he needed, and he also got the order from above to enter them all.

Unfortunately, there were none of Space and Time.

Ryu had been hoping to knock everything out in one go, but it seemed that he wasn't so lucky. Still, he wasn't quite convinced.

It had to be remembered that technically speaking, Space and Time weren't the rarest elements, but rather the most common. They were the only elements that one could learn to control so long as their cultivation was high enough. There was no other element quite like that.

The reason Ryu's Spacetime Soul Nature was so amazing, though, was that even if you learned to control the two, you could easily be overwhelmed by someone with higher affinity.

When Ryu had this moment of enlightenment, he realized that he was using his Spacetime Soul Nature incorrectly. Rather than trying to use Space and Time like everyone else, he needed to take advantage of his Soul Nature to add complexities that the superficial control of others couldn't match.

When he had this breakthrough, the effectiveness of his Spacetime Soul Nature in battle

skyrocketed, and he had even been able to fool the eyes of Lords who, presumably, already had great. control of space.

This was all to say that there should be no reason for this world to not have Spacetime Worlds. If anything, they should be the most common.

So why did they believe that there weren't any?

If Ryu was correct, this was a matter not of them not existing, but rather them not being able to find

it

If he treated the Spacetime Holy Worlds of this world the same way his own Soul Nature could be compared to the natural progression of Spacetime control amongst cultivators, then it made some

sense.

It should be a combination of the worlds appearing easily, and yet not being able to be found by those with weaker Spacetime affinity.

If Ryu was correct... he would have to rely on himself to find these worlds and clear them.

Depending on how things went, that could either make things far easier, or far more difficult.

Regardless, he would clear the Lightning and Earth Holy Worlds first. Only then would he go and find this potentially hidden Spacetime world.

But first....

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Ryu's aura began to change. Translucent scales rushed down his skin, flames and winds spiraling through his veins.

Ryu, who was already mind-numbingly powerful in body, suddenly had a qualitative change in his aura once again.

His body's foundation was being excavated with every passing moment, the insights he gained from the Holy World flooding into his body.

He forgot about everything else, diligently cultivating as though there was no one who would try to kill him.

Why would he be worried at all? Even if there wasn't. Little Silk... didn't he have a Dao God for a little wife?

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The echo of Ryu's heartbeat shattered the space around him.

The sound of his blood rushing through his veins reminded them of geysers, the creaking of his bones and snapping of his tendons booming like thunder.

Three days later, Ryu's eyes slowly opened, wild cracks in space flashing like lightning around him. He flexed his muscles once and a booming cadence came from him once again.

Many in the surroundings were shaken. Was this the kind of body a Transcended could have? Even if most had already seen through the fact he had an Omniscent Realm body, it still felt far too powerful. Even God Lingtian didn't have such a powerful body when he was in the Omniscent Realm... right? Ryu's gaze cleared and he looked over to find that Hope had, indeed, had to appear. But after she had, the Fiends had long since scattered and there was no one left to threaten him.

At this point, the Fey didn't dare to do anything, not when Ailsa's decree had already come down. But the shock in their hearts was immense.

This was the third...

In the last hundreds of years, there were probably a dozen total Holy Worlds that had been cleared. But now, Ryu had cleared three in just a quarter century.

What they didn't know was that it was just the beginning.

He took Hope's hand and then stepped onto Little Silk's back before vanishing.

---

The news seemed to come in waves. It wasn't just a matter of clearing Holy Worlds, but it was the implication.

Could one person even have so many affinities? Didn't you need to match the Holy World to have a chance of clearing it? So why didn't Ryu follow these words?

But that was still only the beginning.

That was because with every world Ryu stepped into, he would ultimately run into geniuses. And every time, there would only be a single outcome: death.

The Fire-Wind Holy World was relatively simpler. This was because Fire, Wind, Earth, and Water were the most common of the Holy Worlds. As a result, most geniuses would choose to go to a dedicated world.

A dual world might be a great boon for Ryu, but to Fiends who were practically cursed if they were born with more than one affinity, and for Faeries and Fey who usually had one dominant attribute as well, it was nothing more than a hindrance.

As such, the concentration of geniuses in the Fire-Wind Holy World was relatively low. There were just two Sub-Heaven geniuses.

There did exist a Lightning-Earth Holy World that Ryu could have gone to. But not only was this Lightning-Earth Holy World in Fiend territory... it would have been far too boring.

So instead, Ryu went to an Omniscent Grade Lightning Holy World and that was when his carnage truly began to be unleashed.

17 Sub-Heaven geniuses died on top of the death of the number 91 and 97th ranked Heaven genius. When this news was disseminated, especially when it was recalled that Ryu was only in the Transcended Realm, it was something that shook the very foundation of this chaotic world...

And then Ryu actually got stronger.

He incorporated the Lightning Holy World into his Body Realm cultivation technique and his aura skyrocketed once again.

For every element he added, his strength didn't increase linearly, but rather exponentially. And the closer he got to completion, the more exaggerated the leap was.

His aura was so powerful at this point that in terms of sheer Body Realm cultivation alone, he was already nearing the best of the absolute best.

This didn't refer to just a single world, or a single corner of Existence... it was a measurement of all

of Existence.

No matter how strong the world, no matter how powerful the background, the talent, Ryu's body was

as strong as any other Omniscent Realm Body to exist currently, to have ever existed in the past, or

would ever exist in the future.

And yet... he still wasn't done.

Ryu entered an Earth Holy World soon afterward.

No one knew where his next targets would be, and every time he appeared, he seemed to vanish without a trace in the next instant. Also, news that he had a Dao God as a Dao Protector following him around made many extremely cautious with how they would approach this matter.

That was when Ryu entered the world.

Just half a day passed.

32 Sub-Heaven geniuses fell. Then came the 83rd, the 72nd, and the 69th ranked geniuses.

They fell like weeds at his hands.

No one ever personally saw Ryu take action, at least not closely. Most of this news came from the unlucky Fey, Faeries, and Naturals that had their worlds basically taken away from them by Ryu. All the glory, all the benefits, all the strength was concentrated onto his body alone. When Ryu incorporated the Earth element into his Body Realm cultivation method, the skies

overturned.

Tribulation Clouds so massive they put most Lord Realm Tribulations to shame appeared.

Thunder cracked and rumbled, and yet Ryu continued to sit in silence high in the skies, breathing in

the delicate scent of rain.

The first bolt of lightning fell from on high, but soon after, there came a scythe of wind, then a pillar

of earth, a blade of light, and a suffocating fog of darkness.

A multi-colored light painted the skies, crushing Ryu from above.

This time, he couldn't just casually dismiss it all with his Lightning God Talent...
