บท 193: Shrunk

Ryu's Immortal Sakura vibrated. In the next moment, the transparent petals fell. The scene was just as beautiful as usual, but there was something different this time.

The branches of the Immortal Sakura shook with more vigor. Soon, the change became apparent.

Slowly, the transparent petals were replaced one after another. The blossoms they came from soon became pure white flowers, exuding a purity and untouchable beauty. If before, the falling petals seemed like falling snowflakes, now they embodied that image perfectly.

The new white petals crackled with lightning just like their predecessors, but they were far sturdier. Ryu, even in his sorry state, could tell that it wasn't impossible for these petals to withstand the strike of a Qi Refinement Expert now. With a bit more maturity, blocking the attack of a Spiritual Severing Realm expert wouldn't be impossible.
