Chapter 1398 Shit

Asce's gaze flickered, but he maintained his smile. "I see, I'll be more mindful in the future. Apologies, fairy."

Aika snorted and took Eska's arm, leaving Asce and the others. Clearly, her intention was to have Eska come with them once they had cleared the requirements of the Complete Heavenly Path.

She sighed inwardly. Although they now had Ryu, she was still slightly worried. The difficulty of the Complete Heavenly Path wasn't set to the Sixth Heaven. The rewards that appeared and the difficulty would all be scaled to the geniuses that entered. In fact, even those that could enter were adjusted depending on the situation.

Usually, the World Sea Realm was the highest state you could be in to enter a Heavenly Path, whether it was the Complete or Incomplete one. However, this time, it had actually allowed some who had some aspects within the Fragmented Sky God Realm in.

Luckily, the Seventh Heaven hadn't expected this change, so those that had entered had only been from the Sixth Heaven. But the gap was frightening indeed. While there would definitely be some checks and balances, it was impossible for things to be perfectly fair, and she wasn't entirely sure what would happen this time.

Her senses felt that there was something special about this opening, but she couldn't put her finger on it. She felt like if they failed this time, they would regret it for a lifetime. But she unfortunately couldn't take action herself. This was all she could do and it left her feeling frustrated, as though she had been born far too early.

'Good luck...'

...

Ryu appeared in a twisting miasma of Heavenly Favor once again. With his improved talent, he should have been able to move through it much more quickly, but he still felt somewhat sluggish. There was definitely a change here that he wasn't aware of. But this wasn't something that he could focus on at all, because the state of his body right now was terrible, and he had run out of Embryonic Qi to heal him.

Ryu took a deep breath. It should be fine, in a few minutes he would finish forming his first drop of Embryonic Qi and his body would be back in tiptop shape. So long as his body was in an optimal state, he could protect him and then find an area to recultivate his soul to his previous level and get rid of his headache.

Unfortunately, the Golden Moon World was sealed now. It was obvious that the Heavenly Path had sensed the Favor Alchemy Sky God and taken action. Obviously, they wouldn't allow such an obvious loophole, or more accurately, a treasure of a former Sixth Heaven Clan wouldn't be able to fool this world.

Suddenly, Ryu fell through the last of the miasma, causing his expression to flicker. He contemplated that he would have enough time to at least heal his body, but it seemed that the illusion of him moving slowly was exactly that. His talent had, indeed, gained a great boost.

'Shit.'

Ryu vaguely sensed it even before it landed, but he couldn't do anything about it.

BANG!

His already badly mangled body was sent flying like a ragdoll.

Down below, a man with burning red gaze stood, seething. No... his eyes were actually a light shade of brown, it seemed that he was just so enraged that his eyes had taken on this color.

'Mental Realm Master..' Ryu contemplated as he flew out. 'A Sky God? What good luck...'

He already had a guess who this was. Who else if not the elusive First Disciple of Saint Rinushka. He had nearly overlooked that Aika had slain that man, but this individual certainly didn't forget.
