Grand Ancestral Bloodlines

Chapter 2037 Taboo Path

Eska looked into the skies, her countenance gorgeous and unmoved. But then it began to flicker, suddenly becoming a woman with a darker tone of skin and a far more valiant air. This second woman looked like she wanted to take a bite out of the skies, her aura surging with battle intent that could overturn the clouds and split the earth.

Isemeine Tatsuya.

Her aura was so much different from the calm Eska that the world didn't seem to know how to react, becoming volatile and almost losing control of its own self.

The countenances of the two women flickered back and forth, and something about their auras seemed to be reaching a sort of resonance.

Every time they completed a cycle, their auras would grow more powerful until, all of a sudden, it reached a tipping point and they suddenly solidified into a new form.

BOOM!

A white gold aura spread out in all directions, and their power shattered through a ceiling.

Their Daos combined into one, soaring into the Founding Dao Levels and then beyond before continuing one tier, then two, then three, then a fourth.

A new woman appeared, sharing the soul of Isemeine and Eska.

This woman carried Eska's arrogant, elegant temperament while also having Isemeine's unruly wildness. She had Eska's large chest but Isemeine's rippling, toned musculature. She had Eska's long, flowing white hair but the white-gold irises of Isemeine.

Her skin was a healthy wheat color, and her body was wrapped in tight white leather armor that exuded a pulsing power.

A black chest plate rounded her chest, and her white gold aura formed a pair of angelic wings at her back.

In that moment, she broke through a veil and her Lord Aura took shape, rippling with a power that descended from the skies and blanketed the world.

With a grasp at the air, a golden spear took shape. Its presence alone caused space to crack and shatter.

At the same time, a crystalline tree appeared at her back. Unlike Ryu's Immortal Sakura, hers was violet and gold. The petals were formed of a delicate amethyst that. had veins of bright brass and polished gold running through it in intricate runic patterns.

She swept her spear to the side in a casual motion, causing a mountain in the far-off distance to crumble to ash.

The power of the Taboo Path Eska and Isemeine followed was in the combining of their two strengths.

Originally, it was meant to be used by twins. Born from the same mother, on the same day, these twins would have a natural connection between themselves that would harmonize and allow the most effective use of this technique.

If the twins were identical, the technique would take another step forward in strength. And if the technique began to manifest when the identical twins were still a single organism and continued after they separated, then it would be on an even higher tier of power.

[Author's Note: Fraternal twins are two different embryos fertilized at the same time by two different sperm cells. Identical twins used to be one embryo before spontaneously separating. The difference is important for understanding the tiers of this technique.]

However, Isemeine and Eska had unlocked a level of this technique that had been speculated about in the past, but had never truly been executed upon.

That wasn't because they were the only ones that could pull off sharing a body, but they were probably one of the very few willing to sacrifice to this point.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

The closest any of this Taboo Path had gotten to this were conjoined twins that had two heads to a single body. But even these existences would prefer to be separated.

However, Isemeine and Eska were in a very unique situation.

Eska had a naturally selfless heart. She cared for nothing more than the revival of her clan. The amount she had given up in exchange for this was more than maybe anyone else would be willing to pay.

By comparison, Isemeine gained a lot from Eska. It wasn't just her insights into cultivation, but Eska was the cooling waters to her raging flame.

Isemeine was born into the Martial Gods, a family that placed improvement above all else. Their women dual-cultivated with any worthy man, and her own mother had two husbands and countless lovers more.

The shadow of Ryu was firmly placed on her heart as a result. Not just because he stifled her instinct to be with many men, but most importantly because...

He had defeated her.

When she said that she would defeat him one day, she had meant it with every fiber of her being. She strived for that same peak of cultivation.

The difference was that she didn't have pride attached to how she accomplished it.

If she had to fuse with Eska to succeed, then she would do it.

And... the kinkier part of hers loved being an intimate voyeur to a woman like Eska's dual cultivation.

This path would satisfy both of her greatest desires: to be the strongest woman to ever exist... and to satisfy her carnal desires at the same time.

The combined Eska and Isemeine took a step forward.

Their souls intertwined in their minds as they entered their absolute strongest state.

Their auras continued to climb, breaching the Lord Realm and then soaring to Sovereignty. Then from Sovereignty, they pierced toward Godhood.

The world shuddered and shook as one Tribulation after another stacked.

Each time, they only became more Taboo, growing deeper and more violent.

Behind the Tribulation Clouds, the Griffins were stuck, not daring to move forward. This was the most shocking scene they had laid eyes on. Their own Tribulations were quite powerful, but they were nothing like this.

However, this was precisely what Isemeine and Eska wanted. This violent upsurge was exactly what they needed to complete and cross the final threshold of their cultivation

technique.

When this was finished... they would become one of the strongest cultivators in

Existence.
