Chapter 1314 Frankly

1314 Frankly

It was far more complex than Ryu could have imagined, it was no wonder that he hadn't understood what had happened previously, but now that he was piecing things together, it was slowly beginning to make more and more sense.

The changes in the Realm Heart began from the moment his Beyond Perfect Extreme Spiritual Foundation had appeared. What was key here, though, was that the appearance of the Realm Heart, or more accurately, the method by which it was connected with Ryu was very similar to his Spiritual Foundation.

The Realm Heart, too, was an existence within the Abyssal Plane. It, too, was an immature sort of construct that had to be slowly evolved and molded into the future. And most importantly, when Ryu had been a "cripple" in his second life, it was the Realm Heart that had replaced the function of his Spiritual Foundation and allowed him to continue cultivating as though nothing at all had happened.

Now, Ryu had just found out that his Spiritual Foundation housed his Dao Heart. Even if it wasn't precisely his Realm Heart, it most definitely housed it. Somewhere deep within this vast construct, his Dao Heart was found.

So, the question was, what would happen if an immature Realm Heart, so very similar to the function of a Spiritual Foundation, was attracted over by someone before it could evolve and gain a mind of its own?

The Realm Heart was akin to a baby in the womb, unmolded and undecided. But back then, it had been rushed into Ryu's body, fusing with him and becoming one with him. By now, the two were already an inseparable existence.

If Ryu was correct, when he reconnected with his original Spiritual Foundation, his body had suddenly gone from having three souls, to four. Better yet, the purpose that the third and fourth soul played, were very much the same, causing them to overlap.

What was even more extreme about this matter was the fact that it was the Realm Heart that had allowed Ryu to accept a second Spiritual Foundation in the first place. That meant that not only did they fulfill the same functional role, they practically took up the same location in his body, bringing them closer on both a metaphysical and purely physical level.

Ryu stood in silence. For some reason, all of this felt... too convenient.

It felt like every step of the way here, someone had been pulling him along on a leash.

His gaze shifted from his Beyond Perfect Extreme Spiritual Foundation to his White Phoenix Spiritual Foundation. The only answer seemed to be this mysterious Phoenix Sky God, and existence he couldn't understand even in the slightest.

This person was so enigmatic even in Sacrum, and now that Ryu was in the True Martial World, he hadn't heard a single word about this mysterious existence.

It seemed odd to expect such a thing, but the reality was that the more he learned about this person, the more he felt that it was impossible that they hadn't come to the True Martial World before. Not only had they come, but they most definitely should have put a powerful impression here.

Ryu didn't like this sort of feeling in the slightest.

His gaze turned cold, but he still returned to his Beyond Perfect Extreme Spiritual Foundation.

Now that he understood the peculiarities, the question that remained was how would he fix his Dao Heart.

Quite frankly, Ryu wasn't entirely sure how to do this. And at the same time, he was a bit worried about doing it properly.

Being unable to train was unacceptable, and a injured Spiritual Foundation wasn't something that he could accept either.
