The Ancient Order - Chapter 5 Bloodline Awakens Early

Tian Yu started going through the Divine Beast Martial Arts. There were 4 moves and each controlled an element, the first move was ‘Fist of the Black Tortoise’ which controlled earth and metal, ‘Uppercut of the Azure Dragon’ which controlled water and wind, ‘Palm of the Vermillion’ Bird which controlled fire, and ‘Kick of the White Tiger’ which controlled ice and lightning. Master Tian gave this for physical defense because although soul attacks were powerful if there was an overwhelming amount of people its effectiveness is greatly reduced unless Tang Yu’s soul power is many times higher than the enemies he is facing.

As he stood up and kept practicing the martial arts. Even though his body has limited Qi his Spirit in this dimension he had unlimited Qi and was allowed to practice as much as he wants without getting tired. Once his spirit perfected the martial arts, all he needed to do was practice the martial arts a few more times in the outside world to truly reach the Lower Completion stage of the Martial Arts.

Once he memorized the 4 moves he stood up and started practicing but after just 30 mins of practicing his body started glowing a rainbow color like before and thoughts flowed into his mind for each move.

“The Fist of the Black Tortoise consists of the Earth and Metal Elements, but how do they intertwine with the move. The Earth and Metal is the foundation of this Planet, there is no greater foundation than the land we walk on. A tortoise uses its shell to defend itself so I must use the foundations of the Earth and Metal like my own shell, this fist isn’t to attack but to defend!”

These words imprinted in his head and every time he punched, the element of earth and metal surrounded him and created a shield. But a shocking change occured when his blood started glowing a bright golden color.

A mark appeared on Tang Yu’s soul and a brown and silver color started shining.

Master Tian who was watching had his mouth wide open, even an intent from the Ancient God was shocked upon seeing this sight “He is practicing the Dao like a Martial Transcendence while he is still on the first step of cultivation. What is his Grand Dao going to be if he keeps practicing like this?

Tang Yu had no knowledge of his outside godly appearance and started practicing the second move.

“Uppercut of the Azure Dragon consists of the Water and Wind element. The Dragon can fly into the sky through the wind element but it also swims through the water with the water element. The uppercut consists of flying into the sky and bursting through the water. Like a koi jumping through the gate and turning into a dragon, I must uppercut, break through the water, and fly through the sky unrestrained!”

An explosion occured when Tang Yu uppercut the sky and blue and green color was imprinted onto the mark on Tang Yu’s Soul. His blood started shining even brighter and the Myriad Dao Physique started shining a bright rainbow color.

Tang Yu started the 3rd movement of the martial arts.

“The Palm of the Vermillion Bird consists of controlling fire. Fire can be unrestrained in the world and eventually all will succumb to it as long as there is enough fire and it is hot enough. Even water will evaporate if exposed to hot fire for long enough. The fist is to burn all that is in front of me like a bird flying towards its prey, they must die once met by the fire of my fist!”

Like before a red color started shining alongside the other 3 colors on the mark on Tang Yu’s soul. There was 2 more slot on the mark and it seemed once Tang Yu finished one more move his blood would explode. The Myriad Dao Physique seemed excited as if a beast saw its favorite prey defenseless in front of it.

Tang Yu started the 4th and final move.

“The Kick of the White Tiger consists of the ice element and the lightning. To freeze the world and to create a frozen expanse under my control. The ice of the world freezes all over time and can stop even the strongest foes. Lightning can exterminate all living things and the force of thunder that is carried with it can blow back even the strongest. The Tiger can walk unrestrained in these harsh conditions to hunt for its prey, it uses the ice to block its prey, and its movement is fast as lightning and each step causes thunder, so I must use this kick to trap my prey and speed to kill my prey!”

The final move reached the Lower Completion Stage and the final slots were filled with a white and cyan color. The Mark was completed and multiple sounds occured both on this spirit body and his physical body. It was the sound of his blood expanding and contracting. The golden color of his blood reached its maximum and it started to burst. It was like a butterfly emerging from its cocoon. The blood was freed from its previous constraints and its full glory was revealed.

If someone looked into Tang Yu’s room they would see a bright golden color shine. Luckily it was still early in the morning and no one was awake.

Tang Yu’s eyes opened and he saw the rainbow and golden light go back inside his body and he had to ask “What just happened.” He truly had no control, the words he had spoken were not his true words, it was done by true instinct.

Master Tian shook his head “This… you have awakened your Soul Dao Bloodline… and the bloodline imprinted your first Dao onto your soul, the Dao of the World. No wonder your spiritual wavelength is the same as the gods.”

Tang Yu was confused “What? I thought you said the Soul Dao Bloodline would awaken when I reach the Martial Transcendence Stage, and what is the Dao of the World?”

Master Tian calmed himself down “Usually a Dao is limited to physical control and spiritual control. But the Soul Dao Bloodline allows you to control the Dao’s through your Soul, and with your God Eye, you can have control of the Dao like a Domain while only in the early Martial Stages. The Grand Dao of the World means you have understood the profoundness of the 7 elements of the world Earth, Metal, Water, Wind, Fire, Ice, and Lightning. This was never within my calculations but it is good since the faster you progress the better. There are two types of Daos, a Dao and a Grand Dao, a Dao would be just one element like the Dao of Water or wind, a Grand Dao encompasses everything like how the Grand Dao of the World controls 7 elements.”

Tang Yu inspected his body and he felt the mark of the Grand Dao of the World on his soul. He awakened his God Eye and inspected his surroundings, he could sense the essence of everything around him and when he willed it, all the elements surrounded him. It was like he was the overlord of the world.

Tang Yu closed off the God Eye and realized it was 5:00. He turned to Master Tian who nodded his head and let Tang Yu leave the dimension since he had to go to the Elders house at 6:00.

Although he didn’t finish practicing all the scriptures to the Lower Completion Stage, practicing a Grand Dao in one day was a worthy substitute in Master Tian’s eyes. If others heard that a 6-year-old child practiced a Grand Dao in one sitting they would puke out more than just blood, probably a kidney or two.
