Chapter 1860 One

1860 One

Ryu felt the turbulence and was almost thrown off entirely. The pressure of being in such a battle as a mere True Sky God wasn't lost on him. The only reason he had even managed to last so long in the midst of such destruction was because these beasts were all focused on using their greatest strength. As such, they were actively trying not to have their attacks pass through the void.

Although they still tore through space, at the point of actual attack, all of their strength was concentrated and condensed, making Lu'card's powerful body and even his spatial guarding skill look like child's play. However, there was very little Ryu could do about a physical attack like this one. Lu'card took up most of the impact, but he still ended up coughing up several mouthfuls of blood, his body rattling and his bones shattering.

Even so, he circulated a drop of Embryonic Qi while he assimilated Qi to the bottom of his feet, helping him stay on Lu'card's back. In fact, most of this Qi was diverted toward that very task.

Ryu didn't consider himself to be a good person, but he wasn't to the point of strong-arming a prideful character like Lu'card into following his lead through the threat of death.

He had ended up calling these creatures over not on purpose, but as a consequence of calling for Lu'card. He knew that if he released some Dragon's Might, no matter how far away Lu'card was, he would sense it. Spatial Dragons weren't just powerful and rare, but maybe other than the Crystal Dragons, due to their oneness with space, they were the most sensitive and had the strongest senses.

As such, he knew that Lu'card would sense the fluctuation in space no matter where he was.

But by comparison, the creatures that had come to attack them were close enough to Ryu to sense it as well.

Ryu kept the range as limited as possible, but it had still ended up being sensed by six creatures in the end.

He had known that this would happen, but he was also confident in the fact that together, he and Lu'card would be able to deal with it.

Unfortunately, Lu'card was still being stubborn even at this moment, but that was probably because he had misunderstood Ryu.

In his fury, Lu'card thought that Ryu had lured him into a trap. No one ever accused Dragons of being the most intelligent race, but then again, Ryu couldn't exactly blame him for thinking this either.

No matter what Ryu's intentions were, the ultimate result was as shown. Plus, Ryu had been aware that this would happen and still did it anyway. It was only natural for Lu'card to be infuriated.

In the past, Ryu would have probably been infuriated as well that Lu'card was actually being so stupid. Now, because of his stupidity, he was putting them both in danger.

However, the current Ryu only shook his head and continued to convince him.

"Get it together, Lu'card. Or else we're both going to die."

"Fuck yo—!"

The words barely got out before the rhino pressed down on Lu'card's chest even harder. Blood flew and the sickening sound of bones cracking echoed… if you could call it that.

The bones of a Dao Lord were impossibly sturdy, even calling them steel beams was an understatement. One could imagine that the body of a Dragon was even more exaggerated than that.

When Lu'card's bones broke, it caused even space to collapse. It was as though a tremendous amount of energy had been released all at once and claps of thunder resounded through the skies.

Ryu shook his head, refraining from just snapping. Looking at Lu'card, he found that he was quite like himself. The only difference was that Ryu wouldn't be doing any cursing right now, he'd just completely ignore himself and continue to forge his own path to escape as though the other person didn't exist.

Ryu took a deep breath and his gaze flashed.

"Alright."

BANG!

Ryu's hands slapped together in a resonate boom. But it was a sound that barely he alone could hear. With all the commotion going on around them, it was simply impossible that the influence of a little True Sky God could be felt.

At that moment, Ryu did something that even Lu'card didn't expect. Rather than trying to open up Lu'card's soul, Ryu opened up his own.

Right then, Lu'card felt that even if he wanted to take control of Ryu's body, he could do so. It wasn't just a matter of difference in strength, but also the fact that Ryu had no defenses up at all. In fact, even if someone other than Lu'card swept in right now, they could easily deal a devastating blow to Ryu.

"WHAT ARE YOU—!?"

"Hurry up!" Ryu roared, finally losing his patience. If this idiot didn't get it together, they really would die.

Lu'card's expression flared with a menacing light and he seemed to realize that there was something about Ryu that had truly changed. There was simply no way that the Ryu he knew would do something like this.

However, he didn't have the time to consider it because he was too pissed off. These insignificant ants needed to die!

With a boom, Ryu's might shook and he suddenly felt like he could even see things through Lu'card's eyes. However, there was a very clear imbalance in their relationship. In this setting, Lu'card was the master and Ryu was the partner.

Ryu ignored the feeling, his hands moving quickly as he began to form hand seals. At the same time, ten streams of Embryonic Qi entered Lu'card's body and a brimming strength pooled out of him.

ROAR!

Lu'card's eyes went red.

[Horizon].

He activated an ability of his Heavenly Pupils, ignoring the fact that he was directed by Ryu to do so.

In that moment, the foot of the rhino beast found that no matter how hard it pressed down, it couldn't reach Lu'card's chest anymore as though it had been displaced into a whole other world.

[Blackhole]s appeared in the surroundings, blocking off the route of the approaching beasts from the side.

Lu'card flapped his wings hard, an action that looked absolutely ridiculous. He was lying on his back with a beast right above him. Why would he even choose to do that now?

However, Lu'card found himself following Ryu's train of thought almost subconsciously. He had never seen anyone fight like Ryu. As a Dragon, he only fought with instinct, but Ryu fought as though he was playing a game of Domain. Every step fed into another one, and it could be said that even above everything else, the largest reason for Ryu's obscene combat strength was exactly this.

A spatial storm formed in the crux of Lu'card's wings that had already been healed by the Embryonic Qi. And at that moment, the rhino that was above him was blown away.

It had tried to dodge, but in that same instant, the [Horizon] that Lu'card had cast earlier suddenly shrank and reversed. Instead of becoming an impossibly long distance, it became an impossibly shortened distance, causing the attack to appear before the rhino in an instant.

At the same time, Lu'card used the rebound force of his powerful wings to push his back against the ground and use it as a springboard to leap high into the air.

The ground shattered as though it was made of Legos, blocks and large chunks of earth splintering and falling in all directions.

Even though Lu'card only managed to rise up a few dozen meters off his original location, the shattering of the earth beneath him gave him more than enough clearance to rise with just a single flap more.

In a blink, he had already appeared before the rhino that had been sent flying high into the air.

It could only be said that the rhino was truly a creature that was used to gliding between the lines of life and death. Facing off against the spatial storm of Lu'card's wings, it had already activated its defenses. Blades of space dinged off of it like a pelting of rain.

When Lu'card appeared in front of it, it had already pierced its horn downward, ready to skewer him through once more.

All the while, no one paid attention to the little human on Lu'card's back, and even less so when it seemed that he was just a servant of Lu'card.

However, deep within Ryu's eyes, there was the reflective light of [Lines of Fate].

He saw everything and the world seemed to fall into the palms of his hand.

"[Fate Reversal]."

Ryu grabbed onto the injuries that Lu'card had long healed from already, grasping them through the Lines of Fate before they could be erased entirely. Then, he corrupted the Karma of the rhino.

The creature didn't even know what happened.

In one moment, it was just fine.

In the next instant, its entire ribcage had shattered, blood flowing out of its mouth.

It was just a single lapse in judgment, but Lu'card had already flown by it, his wings slicing its head off.

"One down. Five more to go."
