Chilling

BANG!

Ryu's fist met the beast constructs forming in the air. For a moment, it looked as though they were evenly match, but in that instant, Ryu's Perfect Blackbody Soul thrummed. 

BANG!

The beast constructs seemed to implode, becoming large streams of Spiritual Quintessence that erupted from their innards and spilled out into the surroundings. 

Valerius' eyes narrowed, but his hands quickly began to form hand seals. He took note of Ryu's Perfect Blackbody Soul, deducing what had just happened in an instant and changing his tactics. 

His arms spread out and his Dao erupted. The billowing aura of a Higher Ancient Dao spilling into the surroundings. 

The constructs that Ryu had just blown apart seemed to reform on their own, a cascading swell of life and creation pooling. For a moment, the constructs didn't seem to just be constructs anymore, but rather real, living, breathing beasts.
