1267 Boundless Cosmos
This wasn't exactly what Ryu was expecting, though it could be said that he was so lost in the feeling of comfort that he didn't really think much about what his Bone Structure might have ended up becoming. But in the end, it made sense.
It seemed that this new Bone Structure hadn't entirely destroyed his foundation and built a new one, or maybe it was just a coincidence, Ryu truly wasn't sure. However, he could feel hints of the Heavens and Chaos he had used to build his previous Heavenly Chaos Bone Structure within.
Of course, with a name like Boundless Cosmos, this Bone Structure was bound to carry with it aspect of Heaven and Chaos. From what Ryu could see, it was simulating the creation of its own universe, without these two aspects, how could it do such a thing? This was why Ryu felt that it might have just been a coincidence. But then again, he truly didn't understand much about this talent bestowal process.
Talents had to appear somehow, they had to be created in the hands of others before they could be passed down. There were many theories on how they occurred, whether by simple evolution, enlightenment like this, or if the Heavens simply had a rolodex that it used a lottery to decide upon who prospered and who lived a life of mediocrity.
It might even be all three. Who knew, maybe from now on, Ryu's Boundless Cosmos Bone Structure would appear in this rolodex and the next genius to be blessed with it might be born in this coming generation or the next.
But, as of now, these details meant little to Ryu. What he cared more about was what this Bone Structure could do, and if it was a worthy step forward or if it was a step back.
He felt exceptionally powerful right now, but it was hard to tell if this Bone Structure had a better potential than the one he was creating. That was because this Bone Structure was built off of his sudden enlightenment toward Spacetime, while his previous Bone Structure was perfectly curated for him.
One of Ryu's biggest problems was the balancing of his Bloodlines. Did this Bone Structure have a Balance Character? Would it be able to deal with his Bloodlines?
Things seemed fine for now, and everything had gone smoothly, but this region was an odd one to begin with. It was hard to tell if his Bloodlines had accepted the new status quo, or if they were just waiting to leave the suppression of this hellhole to unleash a new kind of hell in his body.
Then there were other useful parts of his previous Bone Structure like speed of cultivation. Being able to cultivate through the pores of his skin was a huge benefit. When it was paired with his Embryonic Qi, his cultivation speed was simply blinding. One helped with speed while the other cleansed him, removed impurities, and solidified his foundation.
Of course, another large reason this was so beneficial was because of his Meridians. After all, his previous Bone Structure was limited in talent, it was only because of his Meridians that its effects in cultivation speed could be so exaggerated. But without that synergy, would he still be able to benefit the same way?
And, of course, there was the most troublesome issue, and that was whether or not he would have enough information about this bone structure of his to make educated choices about his future to begin with.
He had all the information he could ever need about his Ice Jade Crystal Body at his fingertips. As for his Heavenly Chaos Bone Structure, he was creating it himself, who could have a better understanding of it than him? But now there was this sudden change and this great bestowal, but it might very well come with the consequence of having to feel around in the dark for his next step forward.
The best example of this were his Meridians. He had to be cautious with every step because he simply had no way of knowing for certain what his next step should be. If he now had to do that with his Bone Structure as well, it might become more trouble than it was worth even if its eventual potential was higher than that of his Heavenly Chaos Bone Structure.
The worst part was that at least his Chaotic Silk Meridians would give him feedback on whether or not he was headed in the right direction, but there was simply no reason for his Boundless Cosmos Bone Structure to do the same thing.
These were all thoughts that Ryu had almost instantly. Others might have been lost in the ecstasy of the moment, but he wasn't one to get lost in his past achievements, even if said past achievements had occurred just minutes ago.
Even so, the moment Ryu started intently observing his Boundless Cosmos Bone Structure, his heart couldn't help but skip a beat.
He felt like he could intimately understand it... Was this a reward for being the one to birth this talent? Or was it because of his Founding Dao?
Ryu turned his attention to his Meridians and then his Spiritual Foundation just to check, but as expected, although he could gain a faint inkling of the path forward for them, far clearer than the past, it wasn't nearly as sharp as it was for his Bone Structure.
The very first thing that Ryu noticed was the boundless strength coursing through his body.
There were certain Bone Structures that would cause unique changes to Vital Qi, the base energy used in Body Realm cultivation. In fact, after fusing with the Nine Pillars, Ryu's Vital Qi had gained a faint suppression characteristic that came from the Earth Character of the Pillars.
But compared to that suppression, this was on a whole other level.
Ryu felt that he could naturally fuse the vicissitudes of time and space into his casual punches, but this was the more complex aspect of his Bone Structure. What was more simple and straight forward was the boundless energy and power.
As though the big bang was fueling his body, a single punch from Ryu would feel like colliding with a celestial body... and maybe in the future, it would truly feel as though the weight of the cosmos was behind him.
