Grand Ancestral Bloodlines

Chapter 2072 Fate Stars

Kira's Fate Star quite shocked Ryu.

In truth, Ryu didn't spend a lot of time looking at Fate Stars. However, compared to practically anyone else in the world, he had the absolute easiest time.

Even back when he didn't have a single drop of cultivation, he could use his eyes to peer into Fate, let alone now that he had a Fate and Karma Soul Nature to match it.

However, back during his first life, he had had no interest because his own Fate was so bad. He was always destined to shine brightly for a short span and then fall to his death.

As for the Fates of other people, he never cared to look. Had he... maybe he would have been able to see the plans of the Martial Gods ahead of time and planned accordingly.

In that regard, Ryu's arrogance was his own downfall, and that was something that he had yet to truly grapple with.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Now that he was finally using this naturalized ability of his Mysteries of Heaven and Earth Pupils, he was finally getting a real look at what other Fate Stars had to offer. But rather than being like a headless chicken, this came with a natural sort of understanding that only someone with a Soul Nature like his could possibly understand. And all of that could be summarized in a single line.

Kira's Fate Star was truly shocking.

In fact, it was brighter than Ryu's Fate Star had ever been at any single point. Even before he lost his Fate entirely thanks to the Martial Gods.

Though, to be fair to Ryu, he had always been under the thumb of the Martial Gods. It was hard to tell what his Fate Star had been like before it was restricted by Divine Chains.

But for Kira to have such a Fate, one could imagine what he would be like in the future...

If not for the fact his Fate had been forcefully deviated.

It seemed that Ryu had wrongfully blamed Kira. From what he could see here, the odds that it was Kira's choice to take the path he had was unlikely.

He could sense some unhappiness on Kira's Fate Star, and also a hand in the shadows moving everything along to work for him.

Judging by the Fate Star itself, it seemed that Kira had originally been Fated to exactly what Ryu wanted him to do most: to drink the blood of Dragons and use their skulls as cups.

However, someone guided him to do something else...

Eventually, he veered off the path so far that he was showing signs of blinking out.

That was the thing with Fate Stars. They weren't guaranteed outcomes. Much like everything else, they were just opportunities that the person in question still had to be the one to grasp.

If you couldn't do that, then it wouldn't matter even if you had the Fate of an Emperor, you would end up a servant nonetheless.

But this... made things far more interesting for Ryu.

He had no interest in helping Kira rebuild his Fate and Dao Heart. Since he was already in such a ruined state, and his Fate Star was so powerful, he would gleefully take advantage of lam's hard work and make it his own.

However, the fact that Kira's Fate was so powerful would certainly make it more difficult. It even made Ryu hesitate about whether he should be using multiple refinement methods at once in this situation.

The only reason he had been so confident before was because he thought Kira's Fate Star would be easy to manage. But this no longer seemed to be the case anymore...

Ryu's gaze flashed and a wild grin spread across his face.

There was only one way forward now.

How could he, Ryu Tatsuya, ever take a step back?

A roaring rumble came from the depths of Ryu's soul as a projection of his own Fate Star appeared behind his astral form.

He pressed his hands together and complex visualizations and runes appeared all around.

Altars, sickles, eternity balances...

Manifestations of all kinds wrapped around him, exuding an odd, intangible ancient. will that stood above the world.

BANG!

Ryu felt a wave of pressure nearly blow his soul apart, but his eyes flashed, the waves of Fate attack brushing off of him as though they were wind and he was wielding his Northern Heavenly Wind once more.

ROAR! ROAR! ROAR!

"I can roar too," Ryu said coldly. "Your master never lived up to his potential. This is why you can only take the form of Flood Dragons now. How could you possibly compare to me?"

Ryu's body rumbled and his gaze turned blood red. A slit split his irises in two and the world shuddered.

This was the first time Rvu had used his Bloodlines since his body reconstruction...

And the universe immediately felt it.

A True Dragon Emperor had been born.

ROAR!

The sound drowned out everything. Veins popped along Ryu's neck as he felt the

majesty of countless Dragons before him supporting his Dragon's Roar.

The Flood Dragons were immediately shaken and nearly blown to pieces.

Ryu's handseals suddenly accelerated.

In his line of sight, as though it had been right next to the Fate Star, Ryu could see Kira's Spiritual Foundation just as easily.

His [Third Perspective] locked it down, the simple lake of endless Bronze.

In its center, a Godhood that took the shape of a lion beast roared to the skies, but it

only made Ryu feel disgusted.

He would refine all of that out.

All of it.

If Kira was going to be his corpse puppet, he was going to have to be one of the strongest corpse puppets in existence.

In the future, when he needed to teach his wife a lesson, he couldn't have any weakness on his team.

In which case, he wouldn't accept anything but the absolute, very best.

"Refine."

BANG!

In Ryu's Inner World, a great change was taking place.
