Chapter 334: Rings
Ryu\'s words pierced into his heart. There was no doubt he was being looked down upon. Though Ryu didn\'t explicitly say it, the fact he was still middling around on this Pedestal Place spoke volumes.
He couldn\'t remember the last time that he had had such a volatile emotional reaction. Yet, this had all been caused by a boy who was nothing more than a child to him. How could he not feel infuriated?
However, Ryu was already gone. No matter how far he stretched his senses or scanned the skies, he couldn\'t find even the faintest clue of where he had left to.
**
Ailsa\'s laughter rang out. It was quite a pleasant sound, but only Ryu was able to hear it.
\'Following Little Ryu is too interesting. Why are you so good at making people angry?\'
Ryu, who still upon Little Rock\'s back and even still above the stadium itself, shrugged.
\'I didn\'t have any strength of my own before. All I had were my words.\'
Ailsa giggled. \'I feel bad for this Ancestor Ember. He actually went quite easy on you. It\'s just too bad he didn\'t know my Little Ryu is immune to most flames.\'
Ryu\'s Rebirth Flame didn\'t have many abilities and was nearly useless in battle considering its current state. However, what it could do was give Ryu an incredible resistance to flames.
Now that it was in the Impose Realm, Ryu was immune to all Common Grade flames, Black Grade flames to the Divinity Realm, Earth Grade flames to the Dominion Realm, and so on and so forth… Essentially, Ryu was immune to flames at the same Grade and Realm as his Rebirth Flame, and for every step downward in Grade, he took a step upward in the Realm he was immune to.
Even though the ruled the Pedestal Plane, the Ember Clan\'s special technique flame was a mere Lower Earth Grade flame. At the same time, Ancestor Ember\'s comprehension was barely at the Ruler Realm, which was only one step above the Impose Realm.
He was nothing more than a child before Ryu when it came to flames…
Though things were explained like this, it was nearly impossible to bring such low Grade flames to such a high level. There probably didn\'t exist a Black Grade flame at the Divinity Realm. They were too weak.
Unfortunately, Ancestor Ember didn\'t know any of this. Maybe he was triggered by Ryu\'s earlier Fire Inheritance usage and wanted to subconsciously put him in this place, but this ended up being a massive error.
Not only did Ryu treat his flames like a joke, but Ancestor Ember actually provided the cover Ryu needed to disappear from everyone\'s senses. If he knew this, he\'d probably spew up blood in anger.
\'Let\'s go.\' Ryu thought calmly, urging Little Rock to fly from the city.
This little excursion didn\'t mean much to Ryu. It was a shame he didn\'t get to spar with Matheus again, though. He felt that maybe only by battling other Necromancers would he be able to grasp what he was missing. But, it seemed that Matheus was still keeping his status as a Necromancer secret, so there was no point in staying.
\'You\'re not leaving the city?\' Ailsa asked.
\'I\'ll leave the city… But for now, it\'s not too convenient to leave too far, just in case some unforeseen circumstances occur…\' Ryu\'s gaze flashed with a cold light.
Ailsa tacitly understood what Ryu was referring to and didn\'t say anymore.
\'Though I didn\'t receive the challenge I was hoping for, we still did have some great gains. This Apostle technique is excellent. Maybe I\'ve been neglecting Body Realm techniques a bit too much.\'
Ryu had yet to practice Body Realm techniques outside of cultivation techniques. However, this was mostly because the majority of Body Realm techniques were attached to specific cultivation techniques. Essentially, unless he was willing to change out his [Phoenix Heavenly Body], he couldn\'t practice them.
And, unfortunately, his copy of [Phoenix Heavenly Body] wasn\'t whole, so it didn\'t have its auxiliary techniques attached either.
However, this technique, though Ryu didn\'t have its name, was actually one of the few forgiving Body Realm techniques there were. Ryu found it to be worth learning.
\'If you wanted more of a challenge, why didn\'t you just battle that little beauty?\' Ailsa teased.
\'I wanted to, but then my chances of getting out would have fallen to zero.\'
Having made his way out of the city, Ryu found a tall tree to enter the foliage of. On a high, thin branch, he leisurely took a seat, taking out Fidroha and Edwin\'s spatial rings.
\'Ailsa, what are the odds that there are tracking arrays on these spatial rings?\'
\'Fairly high.\' Ailsa said lazily, reclining on Ryu\'s shoulder. \'But I\'ve already shifted then into the Ethereal Plane. And, it\'s impossible for them to be detected from within the inner world of your pupils.\'
Ryu nodded hearing his thoughts affirmed. He wasn\'t a fool, nor did he believe Fidroha would let him go so easily. It was just unfortunate for her that Ryu was far more experienced than she thought he was.
His eyes flashed. Soon, the hidden arrays of the spatial rings were laid bare to him.
With a thought, a beautiful dagger with a crystalline blue edge appeared in his hand. A surge of Spiritual Qi later, and the arrays were completely shattered. During the process, Ryu also noticed that these tracking arrays doubled as protective formations, but unfortunately, they were just too weak.
Ryu looked through Fidroha\'s ring first. Since he had only asked for her Qi Stones, he had much less expectations for what was within hers, so of course, he checked it first.
\'Not bad…\' Ryu said faintly.
If others of the Pedestal Plane saw this wealth, maybe they would faint from shock. But to Ryu, this wealth wasn\'t even a small percentage of what he had accumulated in his first life.
There were about a thousand Higher Immortal Qi Stones, a few thousand Medial Immortal Qi Stones, and about ten thousand Inferior Immortal Qi Stones in addition to a few million Mortal Qi Stones of various standards. Most of them were of the Higher Mortal Qi standard.
The Palace Master of the Awoken Moon Sect asked him to gather ten Medial Immortal Qi Stones, but that was a calculation based on him being a Spiritual Severing Realm expert. Obviously, he was a level above that now. So, it would likely take ten Higher Immortal Qi Stones to fuel his teleportation to the Moon World.
Objectively speaking, Fidroha was quite rich for a mere Lower Immortal Ring expert. Her background likely wasn\'t simple even if her status within the Apostles was low. Not that Ryu cared much either way.
After tossing the spatial ring into his inner world, he turned his attention to Edwin\'s.
