Grand Ancestral Bloodlines

Chapter 1062 Pocket

No one seemed to notice Ryu at all. It was impossible for a person to know of every possible face in such a large Sect, and for the current Ryu, bypassing the safety measures of this Sect was all too easy. In fact, from what Ryu had seen, the protective formation of the Carving Ice Sect was actually several orders of magnitude weaker than the one they had built in the depths of the mountain ranage. 

Of course, there were a few reasons for this. For one, the campsite deep within the mountain range was only a fraction the size of the Sect, allowing a more concentrated region of defense. Secondly, this formation was built into the surroundings and was very old, making it difficult to maintain for a Sect that had likely grown complacent. After all, the Carving Ice Sect was a behemoth of the Second Heaven, who did they have to fear? 

Ryu took another step and entered the library of the Carving Ice Sect. 

Although he could have started a slaughter, what would be the point of that? He wasn't against it for moral reasons, he just felt that it was a waste of his time to kill small fry. Plus, he could probably benefit much more by doing nothing at all but walking around. 

Ryu suddenly had a thought. It probably wasn't any more difficult to infiltrate any of the Sects of the Second Heaven. The only real difference was that the other Sects would probably have their Sky Gods in house which meant that he would have to be a bit more cautious. But in terms of entering and exiting, it probably wouldn't be very difficult at all. 

If he was still in the mood later, he might drop by the other Sects to see if they would have anything interesting. 

Ryu used his upgraded Void Spiritual Sense to scan the books and jades of the Carving Ice Sect's library. Compared to the Radiant Star Sect's library, they had far more jades than books here, making it a simpler task to read through these records. 

Ryu had expected to find more information, but to his surprise, the books here weren't much weaker than what he had already found in the Radiant Star Sect. In fact, the Radiant Star Sect was actually not just a single step better in this regard. 

'Interesting. The Radiant Star Sect is definitely a power from a higher Heaven, and I have no doubt that they restricted some of the information they released in their library to a lower standard, but this standard is still higher than what you would find in the Second Heaven. They probably have information about equivalent to the Third Heaven, so if I want to find a deeper store of information, I'll either have to wait until they feel comfortable enough to release their true store of knowledge, or…'

Ryu's thoughts came to a pause when he sensed a light fragrance to his side. 

When he turned his head, he found a petite little beauty trying her best to pretend as though she was scanning through the jades near him, but with Ryu's senses, how could he not see her glancing at him from time to time? In fact, if not for this, he would have just directly ignored her. 

Seeing Ryu look over, the petite beauty smiled and blushed slightly. 

"Hello," she said lightly.

Ryu's eyesight had recovered to the point that make out that shape of people when he looked at them, but really, he only needed to use his Spiritual Sense to understand every inch of this woman's body. He could tell with just a single sweep that this woman was only pretending to be shy. 

He walked forward and appeared before her, causing her to become slightly flustered. 

After seeing Ryu's handsome face, she had wanted to see if she could get to know him, so she used one of the best tricks she had. Strong men usually couldn't resist a shy little damsel, even if he was so good looking. But what she didn't expect was for Ryu to actually be so straightforward. 

She couldn't react before her chin was lifted up, the fragrance of Ryu's breath causing her heart to shudder. Usually, it was her enticing men with her scent, but she had never smelt a man with such an intoxicating fragrance.  please visit

Her knees involuntarily went weak, her body stumbling forward and somewhat falling into Ryu's embrace. 

However, at that moment, she heard words that made her shudder. 

"Unfortunate, I really was in the mood, but you've been touched."

Ryu suddenly vanished, leaving the petite beauty to almost stumble to the ground. 

She looked around at a loss, her eyes slightly reddening. Somehow, she felt like she had lost a great opportunity all because she wasn't pure. 

… 

Ryu didn't think much about the encounter. He had stopped caring so much about such things and felt that it was a shortcut to clearing his mind, but it seemed that Fate liked to play tricks on him. 

He continued wandering around the Carving Ice Sect, learning a lot about their inheritances. In fact, he even entered some of their sacred grounds with no one being the wiser. 

Even so, the fogginess of his mind didn't seem to want to disappear. He realized that a few hours wasn't enough to make such a thing disappear, even a few days or weeks might not be enough. So, he simply continued to wander. 

'Hm?'

Ryu raised an eyebrow. 

At the moment, he was deep within the core regions of the Carving Ice Sect. Very few people were allowed to be here, so unlike the outer reaches, if he was spotted here it would likely raise a red alert. However, it was also because there were so few people that it was even easier to maneuver through the surroundings. If he didn't want to be spotted, he wouldn't be spotted. 

What caught Ryu's attention was a separate space that was hidden in this location, it looked like a pocket dimension, similar to the one he had found the Prayer Mat inside of, but this one was much smaller and it was clearly well hidden. If not for his new Space-Time Soul Nature, he wouldn't' have spotted it no matter how many times he swept his Spiritual Sense. 

'Interesting…'

With a step, Ryu's body seemed to phase into the air, vanishing into nothingness.
