Ryu had yet to meditate upon the Lightning Inheritance of the Lightning Qilin Clan. The truth was that the moment he awakened their Spirit Body Talent, his body was reconstructed into the Yang Lightning element. As a result, he could use lightning qi at will without having comprehended an Inheritance.
Due to the fact he still had poor control of it, whenever his qi surged, streaks of lightning would unconsciously emanate from his body, striking the surroundings with a vicious momentum. But, it was exactly this uncontrolled lightning that shook those watching on.
It was too powerful!
The streaks of beautiful blue lightning beneath Ryu's feet were even more devastating than his surging spear qi, directly causing savage cobwebs of cracks to race across the ground. If it wasn't for the fact that the precious materials that formed this tower were already black, it wouldn't be hard to imagine that they would have been charred as well.
Anfroy weakly stood, blood dripping from his lips and rebounding against the ground. However, the moment he turned a vicious glare toward Ryu, his pupils constricted.
Fast!
Ryu practically teleported, a clap of thunder following his stride as he pierced toward the first corpse puppet.
A vortex of wind and crackling lightning followed the tip of his spear, slamming against the middle humanoid corpse puppet.
Anfroy's pupils constricted.
A hole was blasted through the center of his corpse puppet as it was sent flying back. In that same instant, its black robes were blasted into pieces beneath the crackling of lightning, revealing its ghastly appearance.
It was difficult to tell whether Anfroy's corpse puppets were corpses or golems. Though its face was obstructed by a black fog, it hardly mattered because its body couldn't be considered to be normal any longer. All sorts of metal components were attached in odd and intricate patterns across its body. Its right forearm was actually shaped like a silver metal canon and its left arm had three joints instead of the normal two, making it so long that its fingers stopped at its knees.
Even with a hole in its chest, it leaked a black liquid that reminded one of oil formed of the fossil processing of countless precious beasts.
What was the most shocking about this corpse puppet was that the hole in its chest was actually trying to mend itself. Unfortunately for it, the lingering lightning qi made its death qi unable to gather up and complete the action.
This was another reason why Ryu dared to fight this battle. If he had ascended to the Blossom Plane instead of coming to this world, at most Ryu would dare to challenge a Middle Immortal Ring expert. Leaping realms to do battle, especially in an Immortal Realm like the Immortal Ring Realm was far too difficult to put into words.
However, in this Moon World, Ryu had absolute confidence to do so. Why was that? It was because the experts of this world were almost all yin path cultivators. Those who followed this path, before Ryu's lightning and Rage Flames… could only court death if they sought to infuriate him!
It might not be so on any other world, but here… Ryu didn't have to fear anyone below the Path Extinction Realm!
'Oh, I guess not…' Ryu corrected himself. '… I seem to have inadvertently become an Heir and reached the first Inheritor level. With some time, I should be able to step into the Impose Realm with ease soon…'
"Pure Yang Lightning!" Anfroy's shocked roar reverberated through the tower's hall. "Who are you?!"
Anfroy's words were like a thunderclap in the ears of those in the surroundings. Yang Lightning was one matter, but Pure Yang Lightning was a different matter entirely.
If it was normal Yang Lightning, though he would suffer a bit, it wouldn't be to an exaggerated extent. However, Pure Yang Lightning represented that antithesis of all that he was.
To put these matters into perspective, Ryu's lightning qi was to all lightning type energies what his Rage Flame or Phoenix Flames were to fire type energies. There wasn't a ranking system among lightning elements like there were amongst flames because lightning was a huge taboo of the Heavens. As a result, not many dared to tap into its mysteries, and even those who did could only touch upon greatly inferior forms.
But, obviously, Ryu was completely unlike these individuals. He stood on a level unto himself. Only beasts like the Lightning Qilin and Lightning Roc could touch upon this grade of lightning aside from a few other rare existences.
Ryu remained indifferent to Anfroy's shocked cries. His body felt exceptionally light. Due to his Northern Heavenly Wind, his body could already be considered to be not even half the weight it should be, especially considering his Qilin and Dragon bloodlines ceaselessly increased it the stronger they became. However, now he was truly as light as a feather.
Now, his body carried the strength of an Ancient Beast, yet he was also formed entirely of elements so he was heaven defyingly ethereal at the same time. On top of this, when his qi surged and the lightning flickered out of his control, he gained a charm that only a Faerie could possibly have, making those who laid eyes upon him have a hard time looking away.
Anfroy's expression changed multiple times, seemingly hesitating. But in his lag, he didn't react in time to control a second puppet of his from being blasted flying.
This puppet's appearance was just as ghastly as the first. Ryu's strike had taken a massive chunk out of its hip, making it look as though some monstrous beast had bitten into his side.
Anfroy's pupils constricted. He realized that Ryu's lightning was continuously becoming stronger and stronger as though he was still learning.
With a wave of his hand, he acted decisively and put his three puppets away. He took a deep look at Ryu and vanished.
Ryu frowned slightly, because he actually couldn't grasp how Anfroy had done it. This could only be blamed on himself. He had been too careless. Or else, with his Heavenly Pupils, how many things could escape his understanding?
'He actually chose to swallow his humiliation and leave…' A wisp of coldness suffused Ryu's heart.
At that moment, Ryu felt a few light taps land on his shoulder. He looked over to see that it was Niel who was laughing heartily.
"I've never seen Anfroy in such a sorry state. I have to say that I've still underestimated you, Brother Ryu. How about this, since I've seen your combat strength with my own eyes, there's really no need for you to take part in the Procession. If you hand in that badge you received from the trial, I have enough authority to directly give you the status of Outer Disciple."
Ryu's gaze narrowed slightly. No normal disciple had the right to do such a thing. Even if he was the leading disciple brother, his authority stopped at acknowledging Ryu's strength and bringing him to the Sect. Only there would his recommendation coupled and the badge in Ryu's possession be able to be combined to allow Ryu to become an Outer Sect Disciple.
The fact Anfroy could do such a thing meant that he was a Core Disciple at worst, and maybe even a level higher … Was he an Inheritor Disciple?
It was impossible to tell. Ryu didn't have enough information.
Ryu nodded. "Then I'll have to thank you in advance, Senior Brother."
Niel was a bit shocked when Ryu addressed him in such a way before he roared with laughter, maybe a bit too loudly. He had thought that Ryu would be too arrogant to do such a thing, but it seemed he had misjudged him.
Ailsa smiled from the side. From start to finish, she hadn't said or done a single thing.
"What an adorable little beast." Niel said with a smile. "Yet it's actually so bold. It didn't even wake up from its nap while you battled."
Niel's small talk poured out in a continuous stream and seemed without end. With Ryu's personality, he had practically tuned it all out, so the next few weeks were nothing but a blur to him.
Then, some time over a month later, after the 8 disciples of the Moonlight Blossom Sect's completed their Procession, they finally began making their way back to the Sect.
Unfortunately, maybe it was just Ryu's luck, but when they were just half a day's journey away, the sound of hundreds of marching troops resounded on the horizon.
In a rare showing, Niel's smile vanished and his gaze narrowed.
Ryu, who had been silently meditating, slowly opened his eyes.
These days, the eight chosen of the Moonlight Blossom Sect had an odd relationship with Ryu. Their standing was technically higher than his own as they would immediately become Inner Disciples. However, under the influence of Niel and that Junior Brother who went by the name of Gill, they didn't have the courage to treat this apparent Outer Disciple with disdain.
In fact, the four female chosen were quite curious about this youth. Only Gill and Niel had seen Ryu fight on that day. And, in the last month, while they were undergoing their Procession Trial and challenging the youth of various cities, he hadn't fought a single time.
However, they had lost their confidence to grow closer to them after seeing Ailsa. Though this mysterious beauty had disappeared for a long time already, they knew that she was close to Ryu.
"Ryu, come with me.. You eight… Stay here."
