Ryu couldn't help but laugh. He had been pretty clear about his limits. Although he could kill a True Sky God, he didn't really want to publicize that. But he also didn't believe that these guys would be stupid enough to present their faces to be smacked, so since they had brought forward such a person, they obviously had a plan of their own.
Also, he knew that though they hadn't appeared due to their status, the various Elders along with Aika, Old Wan and Samson were definitely watching this scene. There was a reason that they hadn't launched an all-out attack on the Sect, they didn't dare to. Whatever plan they had would likely not be too out of bounds, and if Ryu was correct, he could already make a guess as to what it was.noVe.lb-1n
Ragash took out a box from his spatial ring and allowed it to fall to the ground. Although he held it casually, the instant it crashed into the ground, the surroundings thousands of kilometers quaked.
BOOM.
Dust kicked up, the earth cracked, and the walls of the Radiant Star Sect shook violently.
Yet, somehow, the box didn't create a sinkhole or anything of the like. It landed on the earth and pushed it down about a centimeter before stopping. It was a truly shocking scene.
Ryu took a seat on the walls, lifting up a knee and resting his chin on a forearm. 'What an interesting material.'
He realized that there was still quite a lot he didn't know. His Dao was responsible for his great skill in Blacksmithing and things of the like, but it was because of that that he no longer did the normal leg-work that others would have to for their Secondary Professions. He wondered how much better he would be if he actually had time to study.
With a click, the box opened and a fragrant aura spread out. However, very quickly, that fragrance tipped over some sort of threshold and it became a bit foul and spoiled. In the end, it almost smelled like milk with a squeeze of lemon.
The more one smelled it, the more uncomfortable you would feel as though something unnatural was going on.
Because of the nature of the Regression Pill, it wasn't something that Ragash could easily reverse on a whim. That meant that Ryu couldn't use the excuse of a clear assassination ploy to pull out of the battle.
If Ragash took a normal suppression-type pill, he could shatter its restriction with just an intention of his will. That way, if he was on the verge of losing to Ryu, he could just break free and even attempt to kill Ryu. Although there would be some loss of face, with Ryu dead, there would be no one left to carry that Faith of the Radiant Star Sect.
"I will take this pill and return to the False Sky God Realm. Do you dare?" Ragash's voice suddenly boomed, a wall of superheated air flooding the atmosphere.
Ryu's lip curled.
The reason Ragash was asking him if he dared was fairly obvious. Even if he returned to the False Sky God Realm, it wouldn't be perfect. He would still have all the insights of the True Sky God Realm. He would probably instantly transform into the strongest False Sky God on the Seventh Heaven.
Even so, his voice had only barely echoed when Ryu appeared before him.
Ragash's gaze narrowed. Ryu actually appeared barely five meters from him when he had yet to even then take the pill? Was he truly so arrogant? Did he not know that he could kill him with a single fist?
Suddenly, Ragash's eyes widened when he noticed that the pill was already in Ryu's hands.
A cold sweat beaded down his brows. When had that happened? How'd he miss it? Was his Space Soul Nature really so powerful?
He wasn't scared of Ryu, but if he lost this pill without using it for its intended purpose, his Sect's path Lord would directly kill him.
