Chapter 1972 "Simple"
The best sort of method he could use to heal himself was, obviously, his Body Realm Cultivation Method. After all, it was built on the foundation of his Natural Treasures to begin with.
"There\'s no need for a new technique. I can use the excess Dark Seed qi to temper my body and turn the qi itself into more normal injuries. By then, it\'ll be easier for my Embryonic Qi to heal it, albeit only by a small bit!
This process would speed things up by about 50% or so, but considering the damage he was already suffering, he would be hard-pressed to finish up in a short time regardless.
Luckily, his eyes had already recovered quite swiftly in just a few hours.
"There should also be a method of changing the Fate around me to make my Embryonic Qi more effective...\'
His Embryonic Qi had been shown to be less effective on those that didn\'t have the proper Fate. He, himself, got screwed over when he started relying on the Nine Pillar Flame Sect\'s Taboo Methods. Hope had also suffered because of this as well, and his Embryonic Qi was far less effective on her. But now, after coming to a new world, Ryu realized that the other half of his Chaotic Silk Meridians was perfectly mirrored by his Embryonic Qi Meridians. Meaning, his Embryonic Qi connected with the laws of a new Plane when it moved as well.
In this world, his Embryonic Qi was actually even less effective on him than usual.
However, if he changed the world he was connected to...
Ryu tried another world as soon as his eyes recovered and flickered when he realized that there was a change.
Then he shifted again to the world that he could most easily connect to...
Sacrum.
In his opinion, there would be a bit of a trade-off. Sacrum\'s Fate might be far more aligned with him, but it was also a weaker world. So it was likely that the Embryonic Qi it produced wouldn\'t be able to help him as well.
But since Sacrum was also the world that Ryu could connect to the easiest regardless of distance, it wasn\'t much of a problem to at least try.
And the result shocked him.
Weak?n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Who had said that it would be weak?
The second Ryu circulated a single drop from Sacrum, his injuries had already healed by over 5%. It practically floored him.
\'Is it that my affinity with Sacrum is so high that the weakness is offset by the gains? Or is it that Sacrum is powerful to begin with?\'
The answer was hard to pin down, and Ryu didn\'t have the time to waste on trying to figure it out, not when he needed to heal as quickly as possible.
The foundational injuries, the ones done directly to his body, forming lacerations and bone fractures. were healed first and within a half hour. It would have likely been faster had Ryu not had to wait for the Embryonic Qi droplets to form one by one, but there was no helping that.
Unfortunately, when connecting to a world that was so far away, the droplets formed even more slowly than usual. And, that wasn\'t the only problem either.
While it was relatively easy for Ryu to connect to Sacrum, it was still an impossibly long distance away, a distance that couldn\'t even be properly described in terms of light years alone. If not for the fact. Fate and its fabric worked with means well beyond mere "distance" connecting to Sacrum would have been impossible.
And it was also because of that that "ease" was just a relative term.
After half an hour of being connected to Sacrum, Ryu was absolutely gassed. If he pushed his eyes to maintain the connection for any longer, he would end up collapsing and forcing them into dormancy once again.
He gasped for breath, severing the connection as he now focused on pushing the rest of the Dark Seed qi back to where it belonged without doing more damage to his body.
Unfortunately, some damage was inevitable, reversing some of the good progress he had made.
But fortunately, it wasn\'t nearly as bad as before.
At first, Ryu had been trying to return the qi to his Beyond Perfect Extreme Spiritual Foundation, but he eventually realized that this wasn\'t worth it.
The process was too long and he would end up doing more bad than good.
However, that was when he remembered that his Meridians were damn near indestructible, being the third most durable material in all of existence.
The more he learned about the world, the more he truly understood how shocking such a rating was. That was to say that even the material that was used to make these False Shrines was inferior to his own Meridians.
He had begun neglecting the fundamental talents of his Meridians because who wouldn\'t? Would he care about such "simple" abilities when he could control the Chaos Qi of the various worlds?
But now, this "simple" ability was going to be what saved him.
Every time he improved the foundation of his Chaotic Silk Meridians, it transcended to the Chaotic Silk of a world that was on par with its new stature, thus making its durability even more profound.
Right now, his Dark Seed qi was much more powerful than the current foundation of his Chaotic Silk Meridians after his Spiritual Foundation got a hold of it. But the fact his Chaotic Silk Meridians were so durable in the first place should be able to offset this gap.
Ryu then began to direct all of the Dark Seed Qi back into his Meridians.
His body began to swell as though it would blow up at any moment.
