Ryu hardly looked at the descending man. His thoughts almost felt as though they were elsewhere entirely.
Was this the feeling that he was chasing after all this time? He felt like the entire world was in the control of his palms, as though there wasn't anything he could face that he would have no chance of dealing with.
Maybe even if a Dao God had showed up just now, he would feel the same way. Though that would probably be foolhardy of him, it was a resonant sort of confidence in himself that shouldn't be shaken or moved.
His Clear Mirror Dao Heart shone with a resplendent light, and his skin, already practically clear and crystal-like, likewise reacted with the same sort of flare.
Ryu took a breath, and the harsh winds around him seemed to freeze.
