Chapter 1610 Balance

Titus looked around as though he hadn't heard the demands, his brows furrowing for a moment.

This point should be a region of connection between the two Planes. There should be an entrance to the Ethereal Plane somewhere, but there wasn't actually any obvious opening.

He wasn't really looking to go to the Ethereal Plane, honestly. He would much rather ascend to the Ninth Heaven... after he finished wiping the Sect that had chased him for so long off the map.

However, this Ethereal Qi had helped him to break into the Dao Lord Realms earlier than he had thought he would be able to.

The Rebirths of a Phoenix were exceptionally valuable and most wouldn't even be able to unlock one, let alone the full slate of nine. Using them just to break through a Realm was a complete waste, even if it was a Realm as great as the Dao Lord Realm.

This was because the chance at Rebirth was about reconstituting the body into a more elevated form. If it was wasted on advancing, then you would lose the opportunity to strengthen your talent, and would instead just get the benefits of a higher cultivation Realm.

Although this would be worth it to most and there were examples of Phoenixes saving their Rebirths to do precisely this, Titus was after something much greater.

This Ethereal Qi filled in the gaps for him and allowed him to enter the Dao Lord realm. At the same time, he had completed his Rebirth while he formed his Incarnations and it was the best use for a Rebirth that he could think of outside of a general power up.

Ultimately, it was this that allowed him to leap forward an entire cultivation Realm to battle the annoying woman who was partly the source of all his troubles.

Titus and his son were very different in many regards, but when it came to their taste in women, it was practically identical. He didn't like such forward women, and even if he did, there was only room for one woman in his life.

Once again, this was a trait that he and his son also shared... at least for a time, this was this case.

The sight was gorgeous, and yet it was just as dangerous as it was beautiful.

Ryu had gathered many treasures on the Eighth Heaven, but a Fire treasure hadn't been among them. There was an obvious reason for that: he already had several Origin Flames.

Thanks to the True Nether Plane's trial, he had gotten himself a boatload and hadn't bothered to gather another.

It wasn't like it was easy picking up these treasures. Each one he took was another huge risk to his life. He had lost count of how much he had suffered while gathering these treasures in the first place. He couldn't gather up another one that he couldn't control just because.

There was no room in Beyond Perfect Extreme Spiritual Foundation for this treasure because the fire aspect was already occupied. It would have relied on Ryu alone controlling them, and that was something he was entirely unable to do.

So why was all of this important now?

It was because this location was one Ryu had never visited, and it had a treasure he had never attempted to take, and yet there was a fissure fusing the two world's together right here...

Why was that?

The answer was obvious, to Ryu at least.

The balance between the Planes had been formed through a not-too-solid connection between these extremely high level treasures. Among them, some were more rooted in the Real Plane and others were more rooted in the Ethereal Plane.

This one just so happened to be more rooted in the Ethereal Plane and now these three were present trying to stop the aura from the other side from leaking too fiercely, likely because it would put whatever power they were in charge of in great danger.

Now, though... Titus had tipped the scales, causing the fire treasure to suddenly roar with life.

In the far off distance, Ryu's eyes narrowed. This flame was definitely not like the docile Origin Flame in the slightest. It was wild, unrestrained and violent.

It wanted to burn the entire world to ashes and do it again once everything grew back.
