A Bit Too Rash

Ryu's shot up. Even through blindness, the light in his eyes blazed with life and fury. However, when his Spiritual Sense branched outward and he realized where he was, he froze. 

In the next instant, the wave of pain slammed him, threatening to send him falling to his knees. But, who was Ryu? Wasn't he a man who had dealt with the backlash of the Phoenix Sky God all those years ago? Not only did he endure it, but he even used it to strengthen his body and then made use of it to kill a False Sky God without even having stepped foot into the Path Extinction Realm. 

Pain wasn't something that he was afraid of, nor did he cower in the face of it. 

Ryu raised a hand to his chest. A hole had been blown through it, but this wasn't the first time such a thing had happened. So long as his Realm Heart was intact, he would be just fine with some time. The trouble was more so the lightning that had charred his body through.
