Ryu didn't believe that the difference would be so large once he completed recultivating the Pulse Opening Realm. Reason being, the likely reason for this large shift and upgrade was because of the blessing of the Rites themselves. It was as though Ryu had just gotten a large concentration of the True Martial World's energy directly injected into his body, something that immediately caused a large upgrade of his talent and helped them to flourish somewhat once again.
If Ryu was correct, there probably wouldn't be such a large chance again until he crossed from recultivating the Mortal Realms into the Immortal Realms. However, this huge boost was enough for a small smile to spread across his face for the first time.
Even completing the 13 Rites couldn't move him. Why should it, he had done it once before. But now he felt a lot more like himself, like a weight holding him down had loosened considerably. It felt quite good.
