Grand Ancestral Bloodlines

2022 Limb from Limb

Ryu looked up to find that Young Master Moon was already standing there, his arrogance just as great as Falling Snow's had once been. Giving him a casual glance, Ryu suddenly kicked out. The force of his blow was so powerful that it could have leveled a mountain, and yet it was so controlled that when it collided against Falling Snow's chest, he wasn't blown back a single centimeter. Instead, the man was forced to withstand the entire blow, and his heart practically came to a stop. One of Ryu's great swordstaffs vanished, and he grabbed Falling Snow by the hair, pulling him up from the ground as the man lost consciousness. "Why are people so eager to end up like this? I tried to warn you two already. It's best if the little beauty comes out. Otherwise, none of you stand a chance against me one-on-one." Young Master Moon didn't reply. He had already seen Ryu's strength, but his eyes were still on something entirely different. His gaze shifted from Ryu's eyes to the great swordstaffs in his hand. "A stupid weapon to be sure. But the material it was forged out of was excellent. If you present these weapons to me, I wouldn't mind giving you a swift death even after what you've done to my—." Ryu's sigh echoed through the world. Along with it, a slash covered the skies, appearing before Young Master Moon. He didn't know why he had wasted his time talking. He should definitely go back to how things had once been. The days where he couldn't be bothered to speak to these idiots. Young Master Moon held out a palm, forming a circular pattern in the air with a turn of his shoulder. A mysterious aura took shape, and Ryu's slash seemed to slow in the skies. Ryu watched this indifferently, but before the two blows had even met, he slashed out a second time. Young Master Moon's technique caused his first slash to slow to a crawl, so when the former saw a second slash coming, he simply sneered and held out a second palm, drawing a circle in the air once again. However, the young Fey's gaze immediately changed when he realized that it didn't work. BANG! The blade scythe, formed of sharp gold energy, punctured Young Master Moon's palm and cut his arm in two lengthwise. Ryu had already seen through his technique before the first strike even landed. So why would he strike out again the same way the second time? In that brief instant, Ryu had already seen halfway through Young Master Moon's Dao. In fact, he was pretty sure he knew what his Title was. "Young Master Moon, huh? What's your Title? Reflective Moon? Subtle Moon? Everlasting Moon? Blue Moon?" The moment Ryu said the last Title, Young Master Moon's body shuddered, and a phenomenon seemed to be forcefully ripped out of his body. The large projection of a Blue Moon appeared behind him, looming large. "Interesting Title," Ryu said casually. Blue Moon was a Title that Ryu himself would have picked had he been in Young Master Moon's position. It went to show that he wasn't just facing nobodies anymore… these two, whether it was Falling Snow or Blue Moon, were existences that had forged out a true path for themselves. Were they the very best in Existence? Likely not. But they also weren't as far off as the others Ryu had faced in his life. A grin couldn't help but spread across Ryu's face. The essence of the Title was in the word Blue. The first layer of complexity was in the truth behind colors. The color of an object wasn't the hue that it absorbed, but it was rather the hue it reflected back. If you saw something blue, it meant that it was absorbing every color but blue. The second layer of complexity in the Title referred to the vastness of the seas and the skies, the former of which encompassed the earth and the latter of which placed a lid on the Heavens… And both of which were also Blue. The third and final layer of complexity was the Moon itself. A Blue Moon was an exceptionally rare phenomenon, and it was one that was worshipped by a great deal of people across a great many cultures. The significance came with a powerful Faith that was hard to grasp… But Blue Moon had. This Dao Title of his encompassed the reflective foundation of his Dao, encompassed the Heaven and Earth, and finally took the hearts of the people, becoming a Deity to be worshipped by all. This was the power of a Dao Title. However, when it was forced out of Blue Moon's body, his expression was first one of shock, and then the rage began to set in. Veins popped across his forehead and jaw as his entire body seemed to tense. The power he was radiating had increased many times over, so much so that he shot right by the momentum of Falling Snow. And yet, he wasn't happy in the slightest. The difference between a Dao Title being forced out now and one being forced out by the Title Stele was like night and day. Even though he could still participate in the latter, the baptism would be weakened by at least half, if not worse. What Ryu had done just now was about as good as cutting off a potential path for him in the future. He had never been so angry in his life. His elder brother was just a matter of his face. Sarriel was a woman he had only met once. He wanted to possess her, but he didn't love her like Falling Snow did. He would be just fine even if he just added her to a trophy case. But this… this truly infuriated him. Suddenly, the illusory blue moon behind him solidified, and he unleashed a furious roar. "RYU TATSUYA! I'LL RIP YOU LIMB FROM LIMB!" BOOM!
