Logically, one would think that the only way to heal a Dao Heart was to grab a hold of their mind once again, self-healing and reaffirming one's identity. But this was clearly nonsense. Ryu felt better than he had in a long time, and yet his Dao Heart was still shattered and his Spiritual Foundation was still leaking this deathly sort of energy that he couldn't allow to continue for fear of what might happen to his Cosmic Seed.
This was another peculiar matter that was worth exploring, though. Why did he feel so much better?
Of course, there was the fact that his Realm Heart wasn't allowing him to feel the despair that should come with this matter, and the fact that he was apparently very much used to not having all of his souls working properly in a tandem as they should. But he felt that this wasn't all.
