Well and Truly

Ryu stepped out, still absentmindedly thinking about something as he looked down at his chain covered hand. 

He was trying to gauge whether or not his Dao was truly stronger in this state. Of course, having a method of using your strength, rather than just blasting it at everything, had its benefits. The main issue, though, was that a Founding Dao was on a completely different level. 

Would he be able to clear the challenges as easily with a Founding Dao as opposed to this? The answer was yes. Even though his Dao had a weakness against inanimate objects, the term weakness was only relative. What chance did challenges of his level pose to a Founding Dao? Especially one that was equivalent to a mature Dao.
