1263 How?

Ryu hadn't even approached it yet but he could also feel the shift. The Infinity Mist had suddenly gone from incredibly stable to volatile, and down below, he could sense the presence of a fiery fire qi, one that was savage beyond compare.

It seemed that he was correct, but this left Ryu in a dilemma.

If below was filled with some of the greatest heat known to man, and above was filled with the greatest cold, then didn't that mean there was nothing to benefit from at all?

Ryu stood in silence, his gaze narrowed.

Indeed, how could it be so easy to take advantage of a place like this? Even if he found a Spiritual Herb just floating around, the odds that that Spiritual Herb could kill him with a thought was incredibly high.

This was the Ninth Heaven. Not only was it the Ninth Heaven, but it was one of the most forbidden regions of the Ninth Heaven. Even Dao Gods didn't dare to casually step foot into this place, a weaker Dao God might not even be able to make it to this location at all. It was naïve of him to think that he, as a mortal not even of the Sky God Realm just yet, could take advantage of this ecosystem.

Ryu slowed considerably until he couldn't bear it anymore. He could feel that the pressure on his bubble was slowly increasing as the influence of the Infinity Mist waned. He was only able to break the void in this place so easily because of the Infinity Mist in the first place, if he entered a region where the pressure of the Ninth Heaven could begin to manifest, he would be finished.

Ryu sighed internally. It seemed that he wasn't in a position to take advantage of this place at all.

Shaking his head, he decisively retreated and began to look for the inheritance in earnest. He was confident in himself, but he wasn't foolish. Risks were only worth taking if there were good odds of survival. If there was even a 10% chance, Ryu would have taken the chance. The benefits would likely far outweigh the detriment.

But Ryu couldn't even see 10% odds. Going any further down would incinerate him, plain and simple.

Not only that, but as the pressure around his void bubble increased, the more Focus Qi he would waste and the worse his situation would become. Unless he could get something excellent in return, it simply wasn't worth it.

Ryu wandered around for several days, diligently and patiently scanning his surroundings. He was entirely unhurried. Despite the amount of time that had passed, he didn't feel any stress.

At that moment, the Favor Alchemy Sky God contacted him with the prepared Spiritual Herbs. Ryu accepted the transfer of herbs and crossed his legs in the void. With a calm heart, he began to concot.

In truth, the Favor Alchemy Sky God was surprised that they were still alive. Although she hadn't said anything or reacted much, she had thought that their lives were pretty much forfeit at this much. It could be said that the reason she was indifferent to it all was because she had pretty much given up already after seeing Ryu's Fate Star, plus... she had already died once before.

Compared to dying to Infinity Mist, the Favor Alchemy Sky God believed that she had already experienced the worst kind of death... That slow, helpless death... The kind where you watched your body deteriorate right before your eyes without the ability to stop it.

The only reason she was observing the world around her at all was because Ryu had surprised her with the formation of his Founding Dao. If not for this, she wouldn't have even bothered to listen to Ryu's voice in the first place. But the fact that they were both alive and breathing was truly a shocking realization to her. She wondered how Ryu was doing it.

Ryu finished concocting quite swiftly, but to his surprise, his Runes didn't fully solidify. After a moment, though, he understood. It seemed that Runes could only fully solidify when there was Tribulation Lightning involved, but how could a tribulation even sense what was happening down here, let alone descend.

A flash of inspiration hit Ryu and his finger sparked with lightning. His Lightning Embryo activated and struck down upon his pill.

At that moment, the partially solidified Runes began to glow and finally condensed. Only then did Ryu pop it into his mouth, allowing his Spiritual Sea to expand and expand again.

His soul swallowed it all like a greedy mistress, taking everything Ryu could throw at it.

ƥαṇdαsηθνε|·ƈθm After a few minutes, Ryu opened his eyes with a relaxed expression.

Indeed, there was one treasure that was here that he had entirely neglected, and that was the Infinity Mist itself. But while it was the most docile, it was also incredibly dangerous.

In addition, it had to be remembered that the Infinity Mist only existed in this incredibly special state. Ryu had reason to believe that if he actually managed to take the Infinity Mist and he displaced it, the result wouldn't be what he wanted.

Without the extreme pressure of the water above, the Infinity Mist would collapse. First it would form a solid so cold that it might very well kill Ryu directly, and if he managed to survive that it would suddenly expand wildly into a large amount of water.

A small handful of Infinity Mist could probably drown an entire ocean, that was how exaggerated it was.

With all the pressure that was here, it had been concentrated to its limits. This Infinity Mist couldn't be taken lightly at all.

So the question was, how could he take advantage of it?

Ryu fell into his thoughts.

It seemed the only way to succeed would be to find a method of maintaining or simulating this level of pressure, but was that even possible? If he had the strength to apply so much pressure, he would already be undefeatable and this Infinity Mist would already be useless to him.

The logical answer seemed to be to observe the Infinity Mist and the Fundamental Runes that made it up and recreate it... But how could he do that if he couldn't observe the Infinity Mist directly?

'How...?'

Ryu, whose thoughts had been flowing so smoothly previously, was suddenly stumped.
