The moment Ryu's palms touched, his hands exploded apart and the flesh of his arms practically burnt to ash, leaving nothing but a few strands of skin and muscles. His bones shone through with an ancient hue. They looked so bright, almost like crystals etched with silver and royal blue hues. Just staring at them for too long could entrap a person, shattering their Dao heart before they even understood exactly what would happen.
And then Lu'card's body seemed to explode. He stubbornly lay there, glaring up at Ryu as the black of his scales seemed to be peeled off. His scales fell like the rain from his body, and his blood flowed like rivers.
Ryu coughed up a mouthful of blood, his demeanour was indifferent. At that moment, it looked as though nothing in the world could stop him, not even the Heavens themselves.
He didn't expect that hand seals would have such good synergy with his Birth Phenomena, but when he thought about it, it made perfect sense.
