Chapter 1710 Lower Nether God Crystals

A man strolled into the bloodied sand of an arena, if you could even call him a man. He didn't have a head. Or, rather, he didn't have a head on his neck. Instead, he held it beneath the crook of his arm, his other hand holding onto a long black blade that dragged along the ground and exuded a corrosive aura. The man's face was actually quite handsome, although his overall appearance was weakened by his obviously glaring fault.

"Jijiji," he laughed oddly, and when his red lips parted, a row of sharp teeth that shattered what remaining illusions a woman might have had appeared.

This man was a ghoul, and from Ryu's estimates, he was actually quite powerful... for a False Sky God.

Ryu didn't want to be too eye-catching just yet. The matters of the Fifth Plane had certainly not blown over just yet, and his face had been projected across the True Nether Plane. Right now, he was even wearing a mask.

Of course, it was a simple mask that only hid his face, not his aura or even his cultivation. Using one that was too invasive would actually have the opposite effect.

Even so, it would be hard for people to connect him to that image. There were probably many that assumed him to be some sort of Dao God. Only the upper echelon who had been there back then would know, along with those they had no choice but to report to.

In truth, Ryu had been under a pseudo umbrella of protection as well due to the fact he was Mae's wife. It could be said that the Dream Wraith's name had protected him from being hunted down even back to the True Martial World. Well, that and the fact encroaching on the territory of another was a huge taboo too.

Crossing from one Plane to the other was fine, but a systematic mission to target a genius of another Plane was a huge no-go.

The combination of the two had been a thin shield for Ryu.

Now that he was here, though, the situation might be different. Which was why he had to be cautious. Even so, that was only in some facets. In fact, their assumptions that he was a genius of the Human Race was only beneficial to him.

As such, he used his eyes without hesitation.

Ryu thought of many possibilities, but he wasn't actually sure which one it was.

His lip curled into a smile. If he hated to be tested so much, one could imagine how he felt about being toyed with.

In that case, he would make them bleed. But slowly.

The headless ghoul shot forward, swinging his long black blade in a wide arc.

"He's restricting his strength to the False Sky God Realm. Interesting... do they want to make the fight seem close first and then kill me? I don't believe that they'd send a True Sky God to die just like that..."

The strongest existences of this city should be in the Lord Realm, and they didn't seem to be connected to some higher power. This establishment would be far weaker than the best power in this city as well. It was unlikely that they would treat the life of a True Sky God so casually, especially since they were a loyal warrior of the betting house.

Ryu stepped out of the way of the blade, allowing it to just barely pass by his throat. The corrosive aura latched onto his protective qi, trying to eat at it.

'Interesting...' Ryu thought.

He didn't dismiss the qi just yet.

In the world of cultivation, it wasn't just your cultivation that mattered, but the grade of qi you cultivated as well. The qi this man used was decent, but he wouldn't be able to use it to break into the Perfect Sky God realm as it was only a True level Qi, also known as a True Qi. Ryu could use his Chaos Qi to shatter it a million times over.

Their exchange quickly grew chaotic.
