Chapter 383 -383: Ugly People Don’t Live Long
“Hey, Ryukawa Sukio, have you done something you shouldn’t have? Why are you wearing a mask?”
Ryukawa Sukio’s face was hidden beneath a ghastly mask, giving him an eerie and terrifying appearance. His aura already carried a strangely ancient vibe, and the mask only made him look more frightening.

“Do you want to see?” Ryukawa Sukio sneered as he reached for the mask on his face and removed it.
“Ugh!” At the sight of his face, Fang Jueyu almost vomited. What kind of disgusting thing was this?
Ryukawa Sukio, who was originally quite handsome and charismatic, now had a face covered in fine scales, looking both repulsive and terrifying.
“Host, it seems he has the aura of an ancient creature!”
“Oh? What’s going on?” Fang Jueyu wasn’t quite sure.
“You know, there were higher civilizations before human history, but because of some foreign civilization developing Sage Crystals, their fights affected human civilization, causing it to vanish completely, along with those prehistoric creatures living on Earth.”
“Are you talking about dinosaurs?” Fang Jueyu asked.
“No, much earlier than dinosaurs. It’s hard to calculate the time this far back, and those creatures only appear in your myths, passed down through ancient civilizations in the form of relic murals and such.”
“Give an example?”
“Your Huaxia totems: dragons, phoenixes, vermilion birds, black tortoises, and so on.”
“Damn, you religious freak!” Fang Jueyu cursed. “Did that stuff really exist on Earth before?”
“Of course, the images of these creatures have simply been deified. Maybe they only retained ten or twenty percent of their features, but undeniably, such gigantic creatures did exist in Earth’s prehistoric times. They might have been extraterrestrial species that settled on Earth, reproducing and surviving.”
“It’s even possible that their life levels were far higher than you humans. Like the Charming Elf Clan, these creatures might have possessed terrifying power upon reaching adulthood, but unfortunately, they perished in that great conflict.”
“Were they powerful?”
“They were probably at most at the level of Divine Ability Users. Even if many Controllers from a third-level civilization came, they wouldn’t be enough to fight them. I think Ryukawa Sukio may have found the remnants of such a creature and used some method to extract a portion of its power, hence his significant increase in strength.”
“So that’s why this idiot dared to challenge me.”
“Your intelligent system has already told you, right?” Ryukawa Sukio looked at Fang Jueyu with a deathly stare.
“So what kind of monster did you get your power from?”
“What monster? It was the legendary Orochi of the Sun Country, an ancient creature with the power of a Divine Ability User!” Ryukawa Sukio said.
The last time he was searching for a metallic meteorite at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean, he discovered an extraordinary layer of earth deep underwater. But his strength was still lacking at that time, and going any further would have surpassed his physical limits.
Later, with the help of some equipment manufactured by “Youxing,” he successfully reached the bottom. Indeed, there was a huge skeleton sprawled there, over a hundred meters in length.
The skeleton had eight heads, one tail, and a body as large as a mountain. It was then that Ryukawa Sukio realized those ancient legends were actually based on facts!
Although the Orochi had been dead for countless years, its body long decayed, upon becoming a Divine Ability User, a creature forms something called a “Divine Core.”
This “Divine Core” is the life core of a creature, and even after death, it takes ages to completely dissipate. And the Divine Core of this Orochi still existed!
Although most of its energy had been lost, it was still a significant supplement for a Hidden Elementer.
“Ah, what a waste!” Xiao Yi said with heartfelt anguish, “The Divine Core utilization technology of a third-level civilization has just been developed, inefficient and with strong side effects. If I used it, you would probably have perfectly advanced to a Source Energy User by now, without turning into a half-human, half-ghost.”
“Damn, when you put it that way, I feel cheated!” To Fang Jueyu, this planet had long become his private garden, and it felt like Ryukawa Sukio had stolen something from his home.
“Fang Jueyu, I’ll give you one chance. Hand over what you found in the relics, as well as what you got from that meteorite and your intelligent system, and I’ll let you live the rest of your life in wealth and as the world’s richest person!”
Although Ryukawa Sukio’s strength had far surpassed Fang Jueyu’s, he knew that the top civilization’s intelligent system might have many unknown capabilities. He had to minimize the risks.
“Are you an idiot?” Fang Jueyu looked at Ryukawa Sukio with a perplexed gaze. “Why are you guys always so confident, really thinking you’ve got me?”
“Then you can just die!” Ryukawa Sukio’s face twisted with rage.
A visible red bloody aura emanated from his body, as if an unparalleled ferocious beast was about to emerge. Behind Ryukawa Sukio, a colossal shadow of Orochi rose, larger than anything around, filled with an oppressive force.
“To witness the power of Orochi, you can die without regrets!” Ryukawa Sukio sneered.
“Host, Orochi is merely at the bottom of the cosmic food chain compared to your family dog!” Xiao Yi said disdainfully, “Host, I have a method whereby you can form a power contract with the ‘dog’ once you’re back. Then you can borrow its power! It’s the top predator, the Soul-devouring Beast, something many could only dream of.”
“Are you messing with me?” A scene flashed in Fang Jueyu’s mind: battling an enemy for hundreds of rounds, with a majestic beast shadow behind the opponent, while behind him… a small, dark dog?
“Are you trying to make my enemies die from laughter?” Fang Jueyu quickly shook his head to dismiss the awkward image.
“You can die, and everything is mine!” Ryukawa Sukio’s aura, like an avalanche and tsunami, bore down on Fang Jueyu. Under this force beyond what a Hidden Elementer could bear, Fang Jueyu even found it hard to breathe.
“Oh, you really are brainless. I already know your strength. Do you think I’d face you if I wasn’t prepared?” Fang Jueyu shook his head. “People say the ugly ones live long, but with your low IQ, being ugly won’t help you live longer!”
“Bluffing?” The overwhelming shadow was only inches from Fang Jueyu, yet his expression remained perfectly calm, making Ryukawa Sukio falter slightly.
But he quickly discarded the thought, as “Youxing” had already confirmed that the East Scouting Country’s hidden force was just a senior Hidden Elementer. Even if she came, nothing would change!
Exhausting all his strength, Fang Jueyu raised his right hand and flipped Ryukawa Sukio off hard, “Gu Yi, I’ll leave this guy to you! Make sure you hit him right in the face!”
