Grand Ancestral Bloodlines

Chapter 1233 Wheel Of Samsara

1233 Wheel of Samsara

The first lightning strike descended with the swiftness of an instant, appearing above Ryu's fingers in an instant. The Sky Gods who could still react felt their hearts skip a beat, could it be that Ryu was unaware? Why was he holding his pills like that, he should have allowed his cauldron to take the brunt!

However, just when they felt that it was because Ryu couldn't react, he suddenly raised the three pills up.

BANG!

The lightning that should have crushed Ryu sunk into his body through the pills, fueling his Tribulation Seed. His pills only withstood a small amount, his body taking on the rest.

In the end, what was left were three crystal balls with swirling liquid within. On their surface, powerful Runes danced, shimmering amidst the towering smoke columns that surged in all directions. Amidst the hundreds of failures, Ryu stood out on his own.

'Not quite enough,' Ryu thought to himself, looking down at his Embryonic Cauldron.

Others might be expecting him to purposely lower the quality of his pills so that he could have the "perfect" side effects, but he had no intention of doing that. He refused to concoct anything but perfect pills in his Embryonic Cauldron, and he took that quite seriously. When the day came that his Embryonic Cauldron stood above all others, it would be quite worth it.

Plus... what need was there to focus on some perfect pill formula when he was the only one that would pass anyway.

Ryu swept a glance and whether it was the worst alchemist to the best, all of them had failed, even Adlael looked down at his billowing cauldron with a blank expression, his perpetual smile nowhere to be seen.

Ryu stood to his feet, sending another glance toward Fairy Claire. The opinions of the crowd couldn't mean any less to him, he didn't care what rumors they concocted or what thoughts they had in their minds. Fairy Claire was very much aware of what his glance meant and that was all that mattered.

The Sky Gods stood in abject shock.

Setting aside the competition, they had just witnessed the birth of not just one, but three Runed Pills. This was an unprecedented event, even more so since these didn't seem like normal Runed Pills, those Runes looked complete and perfect.

However, with the perspective of the competition in place, a shocking realization came over them.

The failure to complete a round meant disqualification. At this moment... Didn't that mean that Ryu was the only one who could proceed?

This wasn't a rule that Ryu was even aware of. His original intention was to make others perform so poorly in the alchemy stream that the ultimate result of the combat stream, so long as he placed decently, firmly placed first place in his hands.

Of course, he had never had any intention of placing poorly in the combat stream to begin with, but it was just a contingency plan. He wasn't foolish enough to think himself to be invincible, and there was no need to play around with his own Dao Heart unnecessarily.

What he didn't realize was that this securing of his Dao Heart had practically ruined the entire tag team event.

On the Fifth Heaven. Dream Asura Clan.

The return of Princess Mae caused quite a commotion. The oddity of her absence hadn't been quite large to many other than her family itself, but her return was especially explosive. Returning as a Cosmic Seed Realm expert was already enough to put many elders on alert, the speed was much too fast. However, it was what happened after that seemed to alert the entire Clan.

First, news that Princess Mae had a Dao Companion shook the foundation of the Dream Asura Clan. Given her lineage and who her parents were, this sort of event should have come with the fanfare it deserved, not casually decided on a whim and done with a man the Clan had never heard of.

These two facts were alone enough to cause a great commotion, but then Princess Mae entered their Ancestral lands. Not only did she enter them, but she traveled into Samsara and returned. The Wheel of Samsara hadn't opened in hundreds of generations, but even the last time it had opened, the young genius who had entered never returned.

It was said that the Wheel of Samsara was a test one would either pass immediately or never at all. While the test taker would experience countless vicissitudes of life, a blink of an eye would pass in reality.

To the shock of the Dream Asura Clan, not only had the Wheel of Samsara appeared for Mae, but after a moment, she walked out of it, her mind in somewhat of a daze, her deep red eyes carrying a spinning wheel of golden flames that made it so only Sky Gods could look her directly in the eyes without their souls burning up.

As though this wasn't shocking enough, in one step, Mae's cultivation had been at the Lower Cosmic Seed Realm, but after another, she had reached the Peak of the World Sea Realm, her aura already containing traces of Godhood.

But, what was even more astonishing than this was the fact her Dao had entered the Middle Ancient Grade.

This should have caused a tribulation to descend, something the Elders of the Dream Asura Clan were very much aware of. However, because the changes had occurred within the Wheel of Samsara, for whatever reason, the Heavens, or more accurately the formations of the Higher Heaven Clans and Sects, didn't sense the changes at all.

Even so, the Dream Asura Clan entered an odd state and large movements began to occur beneath the surface.

Not everyone was as bold as Ryu, and honestly Ryu's boldness was a product of his lone wolf persona. The Dream Asura Clan was an enter family tree of individuals spanning billions. Their life and death couldn't be left up to casual whims.

On that day, the Dream Mountain range closed for unknown reasons to the outside world and all information was sealed away.
