Ybur pondered for a moment: "The third method sounds relatively simple..."
"It's very difficult."
Ruby shook her head: "At least it's more difficult than the second method. With the power of the Awakened, it may be easy to kill the Hundred Forms, but the Fusion of paths is exceedingly challenging... You must know, the major paths tend to separate from each other rather than congregate."
Ybur fell into a moment of contemplation.
Upon further thought, it made sense. The Radiance of Daylight, the Stone Madonna, and the Grandmother Spider, in their original unity, stemmed from the same source in the primordial chaos, splitting into three Pillars, which then further divided, experiencing events like the Ancient Beasts splitting into the Frenzied and the Beastfall, the Feathered Snake splitting into Balance, Perfection, Metamorphosis, etc., and only then did the current ten paths arise, showing indeed a trend of separation... But why is that so?
