Chapter 469 - The Last Day in Eden (Part-1) (1/2)

A large stone obelisk loomed over them, and the obelisk would have not mattered much to them if it were not exuding such immense amount of aura from it.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click #%!d(string=11448539305377005)/the-last-day-in-eden-(part-1)_%!d(string=51533523814768479) for visiting.

Ryuu closed his eyes as he felt the aura for a moment before he spoke with slight awe, ”Incredible he even managed to not only inscribe his martial art but also his understanding of Daos, anyone who can decipher it can easily gain a lot from it.”

Severing Saber looked at the Obelisk with a frown on his face as he spoke, ”That may be so Daoist brother Ryuu, but it would be incredibly difficult to do so, the Dao and the aura of the martial arts are intertwined in such a manner that it would difficult, incredibly so to decipher the martial arts from the Dao.”

Ryuu cleared his throat drawing attention towards him as he spoke, ”Well from what I understood there are two Daos here the Dao of Fists and Dao of Asura.”

Zywia groaned as she spoke, ”That means that after all this hard work I will receive nothing.”

Ryuu gave a small smile as he spoke, ”Zywia I know you know hand to hand combat so you should at least try.”

Zywia snorted as she spoke, ”Not interested, too much of hand to hand combat would have an effect on my fingers preventing me from playing my zither so sorry I will abstain from it.”

Ryuu sighed as he spoke, ”Shame, it seems that like you many would abstain, so I hope you all will try and search for some treasures I doubt the owner of this tomb would not have some.”

Zywia nodded as she left along with a good chunk of their comrades in search of some treasures while Ryuu focused his attention towards the obelisk.

”Imprint of the fist on the obelisk, and then the imprint of footsteps on the floor, and now we only have to discern the beginning and the end of it.”

Ryuu nodded in agreement as he replied to True-Spear, ”Yes so true brother but at the same time the other Daos are so intertwined that it might cause a problem when we try to gain enlightenment there is a chance that they might interfere not to mention, someone might end up getting enlightenment in the Dao of Asura.”

Many of them winced as True-Spear spoke with a sigh, ”that would be troublesome.”

Ryuu let out a rather uneasy chuckle as he spoke, ”It would be Dao of Asura even if it is not a Grand Dao or Supreme Dao it is extremely dangerous and difficult to withstand.”

As he spoke Frozen Ocean discreetly glanced towards Ryuu with a slight hint of fear, as she had firsthand experience of him going berserk under the influence of the said Dao.

Ryuu bit his lips as he looked at the Obelisk as he mused inwardly, 'The skill seems to be at least a Low Tier Nine, it would be cool to deal with it but the Dao is making me nervous.'

He sighed as he closed his eyes in deep thought for a moment, 'No pain no gain, and from what I have been taught fearing the Dao would be crippling as such I will have to step up and deal with it.'

He mentally prepared himself before occupying the furthest corner of the room a talisman suddenly appeared as multiple arrays appeared forming a circle where from sat in a meditative pose.

”Brother Ryuu, what is that array circle?”

As one of the cultivators asked him Ryuu spoke with an uneasy smile, ”Well you see I have quite a bit of enlightenment with the Dao of Asura so this is a containment array.”

Some of them sucked a deep breath as quite a few such as True-Spear gawked at him, while Frost Flames spoke with a frown, ”You never told me.”

With a small smile, Ryuu replied to her, ”I remember that we would learn about each other slowly.”

Frost Flames blushed as she spoke, ”Yes, I do remember that as well.”

Ryuu smiled at her before he gained a serious look on his face as he spoke, ”Is there anyone who needs to use containment array as well?”

As others shook their head the array under him started to work as a small prayer mat appeared beneath, 'I forgot about my mat.', he then closed his eyes while concentrating on the Obelisk in front of him.

Others quickly followed his lead as they began to occupy rest of the space away from Ryuu's position, they were grateful of the fact that at least Ryuu had occupied one of the farthest corner of the room leaving them ample space.

As the others settled down Ryuu was keeping an eye on them, he was slightly disappointed seeing everyone especially Frost Flames seating so far away from him but he decided to push those thoughts away in the furthest recess of his mind as he focused on the task at hand.

'What a foolish idea just because you are close does not mean you would be able to decipher it.'

A few seconds later the darkness in his mind seemed to slowly vanish as he found small faint green light flashing through it, but for some reason, he was unable to perceive even more no matter how much he tried.

'What am I missing? I can touch it but for some reason, it is running away from me at the same time, so close yet so far.'

Besides the faint green light, there was another that was another couple that he was able to perceive a yellow coloured one and another blue coloured one.

'What do those lights represent? The green is the technique but then the other two must be the Asura and the fist, but then again which is which so confusing.'
