Those on the outside felt a cold shiver run through them. They had heard of this man's evil, but this was the first ti that they were truly seeing it for themselves.
Even for those that had been personal witnesses to things from back then, Silent Quibus had never gone so "mask off" before any one of them.
The main issue, and the crux of the matter that they had only just grasped, was the fact that Ryu had truly already brought Silent Quibus to the brink. He was entirely unable to defeat Ryu unless he brought out his most disgusting ans, and if he was going to do so, then he might as well go to the greatest extre.
The aura of a Lower Founding Dao radiated out and it made many of them begin to choke, and many more were made to vomit.
The aura of this Founding Dao was too disgusting and it revealed even to the most insensitive people just what kind of grotesque being Silent Quibus was. A person like him shouldn't be allowed a good ending.
...
Ryu still didn't respond, but this only made Silent Quibus' laughter more eerie and grating to the ears. It was as though he preferred if Ryu remained exactly like this. The more arrogant he was, the better.
Slowly, Ryu's [Heavenly Dao Tree] began to vanish. The result was that more and more of Silent Quibus' corpse puppets rushed forward, closing the gap on Ryu.
All the while, they had been stopped by Ryu's Visualization only for this sudden change to catch even Silent Quibus off guard. n like Ryu certainly wouldn't give up so easily, but when he looked into Ryu's eyes…
Silent Quibus felt a shudder.
There was no more rage, no flickering fla, there was just a deadpan gaze.
Ryu had a thod of killing Silent Quibus in a single strike. This projection of a Transcended wouldn't be able to withstand even a single pulse of his Shrine copy.
However, that wasn't nearly enough. Not only was it not satisfying in the least, but it also wouldn't leave the mark he wanted to be left.
Just as slowly as his [Heavenly Dao Tree] was fading, a new phenonon was beginning to manifest.
Ryu's Birthed Phenona took the shape of his body, towering into the skies even taller than the looming shadow behind Silent Quibus.
Silent Quibus looked into the air and suddenly, Ryu's Peak Founding Dao seed to solidify. The world shook and trembled as Ryu's eight trigram diagram expanded violently to accommodate this existence.
Ryu stood in place, his face pale and his chest heaving for breath, but he didn't seem to notice as his expression remained just as deadpan as before.
The mont his Birthed Phenona solidified, his Shrine Mountain Manifestation took shape as well.
The two beca so large that it was hard to explain in just words alone. Ryu's Birthed Phenona had already been obscenely large to begin with, but when this mountainous Natural Enlightennt took shape, it grew large enough that his Birthed Phenona was able to take a seat of ditation on its very peak.
Qi in the air rolled and rumbled, shaking and quaking as an explosion of colors echoed out in all directions.
Ryu only beca paler, but he didn't stop for even a mont.
The corpse puppets rushing toward him were all blown back, many shattering into pieces of rotting flesh without even the chance to approach him.
Everything in the world seed to be laid on the palm of his hand.
Soon, the array of colors solidified into just three… gold, black, and an icy blue.
Giving one of his souls free reign over the choice of techniques to create, and the support of a perfected understanding of three elents, was bound to bring forth results… In fact, it had created not just a technique, but a foundation of Dao thod that already felt impossible to describe.
Without Ryu's Birthed Phenona and Natural Enlightennt, just the intention to summon this technique would blow his body to pieces. This, however… was one of the truest manifestations of [One Above All].
Sitting on the mountain above, lofty and tall, he was truly on the highest peak that existed in the world.
His Birthed Phenona slowly brought its palms together, and then… its closed eyes began to open.
Space cracked apart and the Throne Challenge threatened to collapse.
Ryu's lips and that of his Birthed Phenona parted at the sa ti.
"[Death Acupoint]…"
Countless tiny needles of gold wheezed around as the technique began to form. But what no one expected was that the re formation of this technique alone would cause what remained of Silent Quibus' corpse puppets to burst into a rain of ash.
The wheezing needles of gold were quickly coalescing into a formation of great swordstaffs in the skies, but as they gathered from the Light Qi in the surroundings, every enemy of Ryu suffered. Even the likes of Silent Quibus and the zombie he had just manifested from his eerie shadow were suddenly riddled with injuries.
"[Lines of Fate]…"
The surge of Light Qi accelerated and suddenly shaped nine beautiful great swordstaffs in the air. They still seed illusory for the most part, but space cracked like black lightning around them, shattering the laws of the world.
Countless bundles of black, white, and grey lines manifested in Ryu's vision.
Silent Quibus began to shudder, feeling a great danger.
…
At that sa mont, his real body, in an unknown location, startled awake, crawling out of a vat of blood and looking around.
His real body's vision sharpened as he pierced through the veil of reality, rushing toward the location of the danger, but he still couldn't understand.
"Dammit! Dammit! Where is it?!"
…
Ryu exhaled a breath, but it ca out as a fog of evaporated blood. One could only imagine the situation inside his body if his coughed-up blood was in such a state.
"[Rob the World of its Color]."
The nine beautiful golden swordstaffs trembled and suddenly beca blades of black and white.
"[— Judgent]."
The first word of Ryu's technique seed obscured by the Heavenly Laws, but the second sounded loud and clear.
All nine blades descended at once, and before Silent Quibus could even understand what was happening, he began screaming.
