Grand Ancestral Bloodlines

Chapter 2070 Three Methods

Ryu took a step forward and picked up Kira. The man showed only a slight bit of fight

in his eyes before he went slack. It seemed that even his fear of dying wasn't enough to snap him out of it entirely.

And that made him worthless to Ryu.

Kira had no idea that this was the last chance that Ryu was giving him. And

unfortunately, neither did the three-pupiled woman he had never bothered to learn the name of.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

It wouldn't matter. In the end, they would be completely different people after this. He could keep their names or name them whatever he wanted.

Little Gem yawned and opened her large eyes. Their whites seemed to be able to see through the world, and they were filled with an innocence that belied her indifference toward Ryu's actions.

How she managed to maintain an innocent facade while also being so indifferent to death and struggle was a true marvel.

Ryu picked up the three-pupiled woman, and though she struggled a little bit more, her despair was all too clear. At the very least, unlike Kira, she actually tried to threaten him.

"Didn't you hear what I said to him?" Ryu asked, shaking Kira around. "If I had his Bone Structure, the entire Ancient Beast Race would be my enemy. Do you think I care about your Three-Pupil Clan?"

The woman froze, the words on the tip of her tongue becoming akin to burning acid in her mouth. She wanted to spit it out, and yet it had already penetrated too deeply, retreating to her throat. No matter what she said now... would it matter to such a madman?

"Now, I do wonder why someone like lam would keep such useless geniuses around him. You all aren't even very good pawns.

"I have a feeling that it's because he saw something in your talents that he could make use of. So why don't we find out together?"

Ryu shook his hand, and the clothing on both Kira and the three-pupiled woman froze over before they shattered before his eyes.

The woman shrieked, trying to protect her naked body, but Ryu hardly looked at her. He even found her attempts somewhat amusing.

With a flick of his wrist, he tossed them into the air, his thoughts flickering.

Until now, he still hadn't decided exactly what method he should use.

The first time he refined a corpse puppet, he had used a living method of a Path Extinction Realm genius from Sacrum. She had found a method of refining living corpses that learned to maintain some of their wills and didn't require perfect control over them.

This method allowed a body and soul to grow into a new life while also lessening the burden on a Necromancer by several degrees.

However, for obvious reasons, Ryu couldn't use that exact method anymore. It was ingenious, but it was also the product of a very weak existence.

Back then, someone in the Path Extinction Realm was someone that even Ryu could only be extremely wary around, lest he lose his life. But now, such an existence didn't even need more than a thought for him to kill. Saying that he would have to lift a finger was more of an insult to him than anything else.

How could he possibly use those methods to refine Sky Gods?

Of course, Ryu was more than capable of modifying it, improving it, and strengthening it based on the foundation he already understood. But....

He honestly didn't have any interest in it.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt like the method that Path Extinction Realm expert had created was just an inferior form of Summoner Necromancy.

It destroyed the soul of a person, just to rebuild an inferior soul that would never be as strong as the original. Sure, the corpse puppet would have more will than the usual braindead corpse puppet, but that would inevitably be limited.

As for the matter of cultivation, that would only work in Sacrum where there was no emphasis on the Dao at all.

It had to be remembered that a secondary benefit of using this method was that the corpse puppets would be able to continue cultivating on their own rather than having to be continuously refined with stronger and stronger resources and materials. However, here, where the Dao was so important, even if they could gather Qi, it would be worthless.

In that case, Ryu decided that he would divide his puppets into two categories.

The first he would keep alive and control through Summoning methods. These would be his Summons.

The second would be puppets he killed and refined the bodies of. These would be his Corpse Puppets.

But that still didn't explain very much. Sure, he wouldn't use the live refinement method of that Path Extinction Realm expert. That still, however, left countless other methods he could use.

The three he focused on, though, were three shocking methods described in the human skin tome.

The Spiritual Foundation Method. The Bloodline Method. And... the Fate Star Method. When Ryu was reading these methods, he found it hard to believe that this was a tome that he had ignored for so long... but it was also the case that much of it couldn't be read by him in the first place. It was only after he grew so strong that he could even begin to digest what was before him, and most importantly...

That the tome allowed him to read it.

Each method was more shocking than the next.

The first required using the Spiritual Foundation of the person to consume them and their lives, replacing their egos with the Dao Heart. This wouldn't give them intelligence but instead make them instinctual machines not much unlike Ryu's own Dao Heart that only sought to improve as quickly as possible.

The second method only worked on corpse puppets with special Bloodlines. It used the Ancestors of their Bloodline to refine their lives away...

And the last...
