The Blue-scaled Ryuk's words were like bombs slamming straight into Ryuk's mind, shaking him to his very core.
He… He was half-dead?
"Your life essence has been halved in the few minutes you used those weapons of yours. If you were supposed to live for 100 years before, now, 50% of it is gone."
Ryuk felt his heart pound violently within him.
"That's the price of using an ungodly weapon. Your life—something you, of all people, should be more worried about!" the Crimson-scaled Ryuk snapped harshly before sitting back on his throne.
"You see, cultivation enhances life force. A being at the Origin Stage, once they break through to the Plane of Ascension, will have their lifespan increased by up to 50 years."
"Take the favourite human race of that world that you love so much, for example. Their natural lifespan is 100 years."
"But once they begin cultivating and reach the Plane of Ascension, 50 more years are added, making their lifespan 150 years."
