The Cosmic Seed Realm expert had been especially tense. When he noticed that he wasn't the only one targeting Ryu, and the fact that his opponent was a Sky God, a cold sweat burst on his back. He didn't believe that he could hide from a Sky God, and more importantly than that, a Sky God targeting a junior wasn't exactly an honorable deed. If he was that Sky God, he would want to silence all those who knew about it.
In that moment, the Cosmic Seed Realm expert realized that in his greed, he had actually thrust himself into a dangerous situation.
His body tensed and his eyes scanned the region for an opportunity to escape, he couldn't have been on higher alert, so the moment Ryu appeared behind him, he sensed that something was wrong and reacted quickly, his figure flickering as he moved to dodge.
'Fast...' Ryu thought with a narrowed gaze. ... But that doesn't matter!
Twin eight trigram diagrams appeared within Ryu's eyes, a suffocating presence descending as the skies above crackled with thunder.
The dodging Cosmic Seed Realm expert found his body suddenly slowing, and then completely freezing. Let alone his body, even his thoughts slowed, he lacked the thinking speed to realize what was happening until it was entirely too late.
The chains fell, wrapping around him tightly.
An instinctual fear rooted in the depths of his heart surfaced. Despair took hold of his body and he forgot to resist entirely. His body's functions shut down, his qi couldn't circulate and his thoughts were filled with nothing but death.
He realized at that moment that he would rather die than suffer such a Fate, however he couldn't even more even as his heart faded.
Without hesitation, Ryu threw him into the golden moon world and a pair of translucent wings appeared on his back.
By this point, the Fragmented Sky God had already reacted, closing the distance in an instant. But when he saw the look in Ryu's eyes, he didn't see the fear he felt he should have.
'God Treasure!'
Despite this, when the Fragmented Sky God saw the wings on Ryu's back, his greed took over his other senses. He didn't seem to care about anything else. All he knew was that Ryu was worth far more than just the God Crystals he had seen earlier, and now it would be his!
"I'll remember you," Ryu said lightly.
At that moment, his wings quivered just once and he vanished into the void, causing the Fragmented Sky God to miss entirely and hit nothing but air.
The Fragmented Sky God fell forward, his eyes widening in shock. His head whipped around, but outside of small ripples in space that vanished an instant later, he actually couldn't sense a single thing. Ryu had truly vanished into thin air.
'The void? That's impossible... Even a God Treasure shouldn't be able to allow that, unless...'
The only explanation seemed to be that Ryu had exceptionally high Spatial Affinity, enough that he could bring out more power in that God Treasure than he should have been able to at his cultivation level.
The Fragmented Sky God stood in silence, his chest heaving. The good news was that he had hidden anything that could point toward his identity ahead of time, even hiding his face. But he was still frustrated.
His spine suddenly shivered, remembering Ryu's last words before he shook his head and laughed at himself. How ridiculous. Setting aside the fact that he had used his God Qi to hide his face, even if he hadn't, so what?
A Dao Pedestal Realm youth wanted revenge against him? It was nothing short of a joke. Only after entering the Sky God Realm would one understand just how large the gap was, and just how unguaranteed reaching this step was.
Even geniuses of the Sixth Heaven weren't guaranteed to reach this step, let alone a Dao Pedestal youth that had come from much lower. Plus, he had a weak Bloodline, making it even more impossible.
'Don't let me catch you.'
...
Ryu stepped out of the void, hid the golden moon world ring and quickly entered it. The face of the Fragmented Sky God dancing in his memories. As for his supposed shroud of qi, Ryu's gaze had seen right through it as though it hadn't been there. And, even if he couldn't do that, the Magus Sky God's methods gave him more than enough ways to remember and find an aura in the future.
However, Ryu just slotted this to the back of his mind, ignoring it for now. He was a grudgeful person, he would definitely deal with this man in the future without a doubt.
When Ryu entered the world, he found the Cosmic Seed Realm expert writhing on the ground, his mouth foaming, tears falling from his eyes and snot dribbling from his nose. He looked far more like a scared child than an expert of the cultivation world.
Even after Ryu removed the chains, he was still far too shaken to move, but Ryu no longer cared at that point. He didn't need this person to be coherent.
Ryu grabbed the head of the Cosmic Seed Realm and his soul's presence descended. Under normal circumstances, this would be possible to resist, but given the state of this young man, he had no chance whatsoever of doing this.
Ryu began to rifle through this young man's memories with incomparable ease. Normally it would be quite useless to go through so much, but Ryu wasn't actually looking for specific information, he was looking to understand the current landscape of the Sixth Heaven and cross reference that with the details the Favor Alchemy Sky God had left behind.
After Ryu was done, he nodded to him and moved to pull back when his gaze suddenly narrowed. There seemed to be a deeper layer of memories in this young man's mind. In fact, now that Ryu thought about it, although he had gone through the latter's whole life, he hadn't seen anything about his Dao, his cultivation methods or even the techniques he used.
'Interesting...'
Ryu pushed through, looking to see if he could reach down toward this deeper layer, however, he suddenly shuddered.
