Sarriel vanished and her palm appeared on Ryu's chest in an instant. Ryu could see it clearly, or so he thought. The twisting deceptions that danced around Sarriel made it difficult to tell what was reality and what wasn't. It was hard even to trust his own senses to twist space and warp time when the line between illusion and reality was being blurred so easily.

If the passive ability of his Mysteries of Heaven and Earth Pupils was [Third Perspective], then this casual twisting of reality could be considered the same for the Truth Pupils. Even when Sarriel turned it off, a thought of hers could shape and mold the laws of the world.

This had only grown more powerful after she formed Lord Control.

Sarriel was clearly much like Ryu, not caring for the speed of cultivation very much, and yet instead excavating every hint of her potential every step along the way. When he had met her, she had already been several times older than him. Since then, he had experienced Rebirth for almost a thousand years, on top of decades more. With Sarriel's talent, Ryu wouldn't have been surprised even if he came back to find her already a Dao God. But the fact that she was only a Dao Lord wasn't a sigh of relief. If anything, it made him several times more serious.

There was no way that she spent all these years grinding her wheels in the dirt hoping for a single breakthrough into the Lord Realm.

So the question was...

Just how deep was her foundation right now?

PAT.

The palm collided with Ryu's chest but there was no sudden, shocking explosion of strength. It was just a last slap, almost as though she was patting Ryu and feeling his chest rather than attacking him.

And yet, the rolling storm within Ryu's body told a different story entirely.

His inner organs shook, his heart would have burst had he not had his Realm Heart, and it felt like all of his bones would dislocate at once.

And yet, he stood there, perfectly still, perfectly unmoved. His body was so powerful that despite the rolling changes happening within, they didn't even echo out into the world.

It was perfectly silent.

However, he realized one thing immediately...

Sarriel's body was exceptionally powerful.

This was the difference between the Fey and the Faeries. The Faeries were a pure spiritual sort of race. Their bodies weren't their strong suits, but they instead placed their bets on their elemental and qi control. They often had powerful souls as well. But the Fey were perfect all-rounders. They had powerful souls, powerful qi control, and powerful bodies. They were one of the Ancient Races for a reason and their weaknesses were few and far between. And even those that existed were abstruse and difficult to take advantage of.

Just a casual palm from her carried so much strength and power.

Ryu looked down and into her eyes as though assessing something.

Then, twin eight trigram diagrams appeared in each one of his silver eyes, rotating in opposite directions.

The illusion on the world seemed to disperse before him and the layers of Fate became the foundation upon which he read the world.

This was what he really wanted. He needed to establish a baseline for what was Sarriel's reality and what wasn't. If he didn't, he would spend the entire battle chasing shadows.

But what was shocking to him, more so than even her powerful body, was the fact that even with the mutation to his Heavenly Pupils, it actually took his Fate and Karma Soul Nature before he could see through the illusions completely.

It was as expected... she had likely spent most of her efforts on her eyes in these years and now they had reached a height that most couldn't imagine.

A fiendish grin spread across Ryu's face as he looked at the beautiful woman before him.

He had been slowly starting to grow pissed off these days. It felt like every new world he went to, his First Ranked Heavenly Pupils were being disrespected.

In Sacrum, they were Sixth. In this world, they weren't even in the top dozen and it took a great deal of effort before he managed to pull them into the top 20, but he was still only nearing the top 10 here.

Maybe in other worlds, it was even worse.

In his eyes, there was only one First Ranked Heavenly Pupil in existence...

And it was his own.

**BOOM!**

Ryu's aura flared and Sarriel took a casual step back. However, she didn't seem to do so because of his powerful momentum, but instead to prep a second palm.

This time, though, Ryu saw through all the illusions and met her head on.

The world shook around their Lord Control and a thin film of space separated their skin as though they hated one another's guts so much they couldn't even stand to touch one another.

There was a small pause before the two erupted. They didn't seem to care what part of their bodies they used as every clash overturned the world.

Palms, fists, knees... Despite Ryu's larger size, Sarriel was like a shark in blood-infested waters. She moved with the sharpness and fluidity of a battle veteran, switching between styles with just as much ease as Ryu did.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

Their forearms clashed and they separated by three meters before erupting again.

Concentric circles of exploding air destroyed the atmosphere around them, the laws of the world whining and groaning beneath the strain as their Lord Control forced it to remain intact.

The world was growing like a ready-to-burst balloon, however, they didn't seem to notice at all as they separated once again, their breathing even and their gazes

indifferent.

A sparkle lit in Sarriel's eyes as her body doubled, and then doubled again.

Soon, there were dozens of her, each one with 90% of her prowess.

[Truth Clone].
