Chapter 1941 127


    Ryu awoke, his eyes flashing like lightning. His clones had certainly made a ridiculous amount of progress in these 26 years.


    The depth of the techniques from his Dao Heart were astonishing. It sounded a bit ridiculous to be so shocked by something he had accomplished. But Ryu had completely cut himself off from that side while he focused on cultivating his Body Realm.


    It wasn''t just a matter of the power of the techniques, but their streamlining.


    Ryu had always been able to create powerful techniques in the past, but the issue was that they impacted himself too strongly. He seemed to almost kill himself every time he used one of these Skills.


    This time, his Dao Heart, while in a restrained relationship with his Perfect Blackbody, didn''t just create more and more techniques, there was some true depth to them.


    His Dao Heart created the technique ideas while his Perfect Blackbody added some true depth to them.


    In this time, his Dao Heart had created 127 techniques. Of them, over a hundred were stronger than [Heavenly Dao Tree] and [A God''s Brush]... and over a hundred of them would directly kill him if he used them in any capacity right now. It was almost amusing how much his Dao Heart wanted him to fly head first into death.


    However, his Perfect Blackbody Soul was able to perfectly find a balance in six of them. Not only did those techniques have the same strength, but he could now use them without actually dying.


    His personal favorite was an improvement on [Domain] the technique of Hope''s Race. It took the techniques of the Radiant and Fading Star Sects and molded them into a completely new form.


    Ryu looked down at his hand, sparkling starlight dancing on his palm.


    ''It seems I need to go into seclusion more often...'' Ryu thought to himself.


    With Lord Control, to an extent, it was possible to force reality to bear your strength, thus increasing your strength exponentially.


    However, truthfully speaking, this was only the simplest explanation of [Tatsuya Constellation]. Its other abilities were things that Ryu was already quite excited to use in battle.


    ''It seems I''ll have to reforge my great swordstaffs... again.''


    The reason Ryu had this thought was because the next three techniques were all related to his weapons'' techniques. The trouble was that they were so powerful that the only way his Perfect Blackbody could find to allow him to use it now was by offsetting some of that burden.


    Ryu didn''t really like the idea of relying on external items, but in the end, he didn''t mind it too much.


    ''I guess I know the next False Shrine I''m targeting,'' Ryu thought to himself.


    He could already forge the one False Shrine into one of his great swordstaffs, but he would need a Darkness False Shrine in order to forge the other.


    He still needed to destroy two more of these False Shrines within the next 70 years or so, so it would be killing two birds with one stone.


    The final two techniques didn''t require such external items. One layered on top of [Tatsuya Constellation] and [Lines of Fate], forming a complete Domain of Spacetime. The second was the reason he had ignored his Bloodlines during his Body Realm cultivation... or rather, it could be said that he had been thinking about his Bloodlines the entire time.


    His Spirit Bodies, his Bloodlines, his Body Realm Cultivation Skills, his scaled and winged forms, his Bloodline Birthed Phenomena...


    There was too much, honestly. Trying to get his full potential out of all of them was next to impossible.


    This time, his Dao Heart had come up with an ingenious method, one that relied on a skill of his Heavenly Pupils he had always kept perpetually active ever since it mutated into existence.
