章 2016: Smart Risks vs Impossible Odds

Ryu's body was being locked in place by a series of complex laws. To his eyes, they looked like the Runes of the world, something that he was very familiar with as a Formation Master. 

But it was more complicated than just that. It was almost like the woman's pupils were instantly forming a Visualization of sorts, while also borrowing power from the world itself to strengthen it. 

With this sort of binding power, even a Sovereign would be locked down for a brief instant, and if she was willing to give up her eye, maybe even a Dao God. 

Having come to this conclusion, Ryu shook his head. That was unlikely. 

She didn't have any true Heavenly Pupils. Instead, she seemed to have replaced her Pupils with shocking abilities that were just a step below Heavenly Pupils, something that Ryu had never seen before. 

Was she trying to create them like Primus had succeeded in? That was a possibility. It was just that… 

She still had a long way to go.
