The Point
Ryu continued to watch this from a third perspective. By this point, he had realized that he hadn't actually been expelled from his own body; rather, his soul had been forcefully sealed away. Right now, the reason why it felt that he was watching everything from a bird's-eye view was because he was experiencing it through his eyes. Or, rather, an ability of his eyes, [Third Perspective].
This comprehension came slowly, almost like a reminder that he wasn't fully in control of his faculties anymore. He couldn't rely on the mutations to his mind to gain an advantage, but instead had to rely on something much vaguer and far less tangible.
By the time he finished having these thoughts, he was disgusted with the fact that he had wasted time on them at all.
Was the solution really to let his Dao Heart do as it pleased? Or was the solution to suppress his Dao Heart and take control of himself again?
