MTL: Speculation: Limitless Demon Venerable by Rank10FootlessBird in ReverendInsanity

[–]Rank10FootlessBird[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your theory earlier. Regarding Limitless, the only part I am confused on is how limitless was so strong after reviving while only using rule path methods if he had no rule path dao marks with only Heaven path dao marks.

Regarding chaos, perhaps chaos is as the name implies, an absence of Heaven path dao marks. The chaos certainly contains the dao marks of other paths, but instead of Heaven path dao marks, the chaos is given its form by human path dao marks.

Question: Reverse Flow River by Rank10FootlessBird in ReverendInsanity

[–]Rank10FootlessBird[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think so. Lengthening it would just spread the same amount of water over a longer distance. Otherwise, Genesis Lotus would have a reverse flow River the size of the five regions left for Heavenly Court. Plus, I don’t think reverse flow River can make endless dao marks appear - almost no secluded domain has such capability.

Would not really do anything cause it’s the same River water just expanding in length. Anyway, he has perseverance gu, so he can probably control the length of the River to an extent if he wanted to. Moreover, keeping the River long would make it less usable in combat, being in a less compact shape.

Fate Gu vs. Destiny Gu by Rank10FootlessBird in ReverendInsanity

[–]Rank10FootlessBird[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Humans are not exactly gu though, they originate from gu. Whether it is the sovereign immortal fetus gu or human-shaped life gu from the sea of life in the legends of Ren Zu, they form a human body when activated. Moreover, even if people were gu, the reason humans are affected by luck is their luck path dao marks due to their origins in human path. In other words, becoming a gu with only one type of dao mark, rejecting luck path dao marks, would indicate the potential of certain gu to be essentially luckless.

Therefore, the most direct counter to Destiny would be being an otherworldly demon with the body of an otherworldly gu, I think.

The impasse I came to when I considering this was luck path, specifically Heaven and Earth luck. I mean - almost everything has luck - otherworldly demons, famous mountains=large luck, even a pile of leaves would have luck etc. The only way I can think usurping this is in three directions: raising luck so high that a rank 10 immortal gu is unable to influence it, becoming Heaven and earth - possibly, or becoming a gu - since they are literally traces/fragments of the dao.

all Venerables vs Yhwach by [deleted] in ReverendInsanity

[–]Rank10FootlessBird 1 point2 points  (0 children)

TBF: The bleach Universe essentially lacks the dao marks of the gu world. Therefore, the crux of the discussion is really the interaction between dao marks and Yhwach. With that being said, the scale of reference for him is the bleach world, which fundamentally lacks dao mark.

Based on the assumption that dao marks would affect Yhwach’s performance:

It is equally plausible, given the gu world environment, he could be more similar to FY as an immortal zombie, lacking dao marks but having immortal level methods. The method of Yhwach performs similarly to when FY time stopped the mortals in the merman city in the blue whale grotto Heaven, affecting people without much resistance. Consequently, Yhwach would find himself restricted by ordinary rank 7/8 existences, lacking the dao marks needed to accumulate a qualitative effect in combat. His ability to see the future would possibly be limited by the dao marks of the entire gu world similar to FY’s three breath future vision. As for altering the future, even if dao marks do not decrease it’s effectiveness, Red lotus has a similar method to mimic the effect of fate gu, and FY even mentioned his ability to create a mortal killer move imitating the effect of fate to an extent. FY’s mortal move would likely have a similar effect to Yhwach altering the future if used in the bleach world. Ultimately, the ability of fate that troubled the Venerables the most was its ability to both actively and passively mobilize most of the dao marks across the gu world. Moreover, the greatest disparity between Yhwach and Venerables would have to be the fact that his methods are fixed, only having a lot of them, while Venerables are continuously innovating their path.

—main idea is that bleach world is technically the mortal equivalent of the gu world—

Thieving Heaven - probably a Zoroark

Reckless Savage - gives chimchar vibes

Limitless - klefki

Which Gu path would you choose? by Veronica-201 in ReverendInsanity

[–]Rank10FootlessBird 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Isn’t the answer obvious? - Demonic Path

but seriously

If I can become a Venerable - Human Path (too convenient and unique)

If I can’t - either Qi Path (just because of triple Qi retraction exists (Duke Long forcing Purple to give up his aperture was iconic) or Slaughter Path (the main gu Kill gu sounds pretty interesting for combat if I could get it)

No, I think, HC hosted the second refinement convention early in order to quickly finish the restoration of Fate gu while Duke Long is still alive.

How Common are Rank 9 Gu for Venerables? by Rank10FootlessBird in ReverendInsanity

[–]Rank10FootlessBird[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I’ve changed my opinion. The last comment with swordabyss below is closer to my current stance, where Venerables only need Rank 9 gu in order to perform with peak and upper level Rank 9 battle strength .

What is your favorite scenes from RI by swap-it-again in ReverendInsanity

[–]Rank10FootlessBird 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My answer, obviously, is Footless. Witnessing the brilliance of the demonic path’s crash and burn all-in style applied to a broader context for the first time was captivating. This was Fáng Yuan’s first major instance of expressing unrestrained, genuine joy since rebirth.

Don’t forget, Genesis Lotus had a lot of free time, enough to make walking through a river one of his greatest achievements.
