Heavenly Ranking

Chapter 227 Divine Oil
A detection range of 1300 meters is basically the limit of a sniper rifle's range.

With his perception enhanced in such an epic way, Ji Fuyou was naturally very satisfied.

Members of the Kaya royal family, including Tuta and Turing, were also satisfied, as the domestic situation had been completely reversed.

After the transaction was completed, Ji Fuyou did not linger in Sand Highlands and set off directly back to Dragon Head Town.

Turing accompanied him throughout the entire journey.

After spending a day to reach Dragon Head Town, the princess earnestly invited Ji Fuyou to visit the Kingdom of Kaya in the future, regarding him as the most precious guest of the Kingdom of Kaya.

Ji Fuyou understood what she meant.

Small countries need the support of large countries to survive.

The previous Kaya Kingdom regime was close to the Northern United States, but in recent years the Northern United States has been preoccupied with the encirclement of the Griffin Republic, and many countries within the Northern United States' sphere of influence have been gradually annexed by other forces.

The Kingdom of Kaya is clearly one of them.

The Black Gold Empire, which has secretly allied with the Griffin Republic, is eyeing them.

However, the Black Gold Empire has a large population and a penchant for fighting. If the Kingdom of Kaya were to align itself with the Black Gold Empire, it wouldn't be long before the Black Gold Empire, with its advantage of immigration, would rapidly infiltrate the Kingdom of Kaya's political and military spheres, until it completely controls the Kingdom of Kaya and incorporates it into its own territory.

Therefore, compared to the Black Gold Empire, the Kingdom of Kaya prefers to side with the Great Shang Federation.

The Great Shang Federation has a developed economy. If an agreement can be reached with them and their support can be obtained, the entire Kingdom of Kaya will surely develop rapidly and get rid of hunger and poverty.

but……

The Great Shang Federation only wants to make money from other countries and has no intention of providing protection to small countries.

As a spiritual master, Ji Fuyou is bound to secure a place in the Great Shang Federation in the future.

Tuta and Turing were trying their best to maintain this relationship, paving the way for the Kaya Kingdom to gain the support of the Great Shang Federation in the future.

pity……

What they didn't know was that Ji Fuyou had no intention of entering the political and business circles of the Shang Dynasty.

As a young man, his thoughts are relatively simple and pure, and he still retains enough humanity, so he naturally cannot transform himself into a politician driven purely by self-interest.

……

Longshou Town.

After parting ways with Turing and the others, Ji Fuyou arrived in Liusha City and met Fang Qiyun, who had come after hearing the news, the next day.

After closing the door, Fang Qiyun quickly took out a blue inheritance crystal: "I didn't get a red spirit source crystal. High-level source crystals are too sought after, but... I found this inheritance crystal."

"High-level inheritance? What is that?"

"Sacred Armor Technique!"

Fang Qiyun said, "Using spiritual power to guide one's own strength, one can give the strength a defensive effect similar to a protective force field. The enhancement effect depends on the cultivator's understanding of this inheritance and the strength of their strength. Basically, it can increase the resistance value of the spirit and physique by 5% to 10%."

"Increase defense?"

Ji Fuyou was somewhat surprised to hear this.

"Yes, and this Sacred Armor Technique can be used on others. However, depending on the amount of mental energy invested and the strength of the opponent's force, the duration of the Sacred Armor Technique varies. Some last only a dozen or several tens of seconds, while others can last for several hours."

Fang Qiyun said.

"That's a pretty good skill."

As Ji Fuyou spoke, he took the crystal and began to carefully sense it.

But after a moment, he frowned slightly.

“Cultivation requires the development of divine sense, that is, 25 units of spirit. Moreover, condensing the Holy Armor Technique consumes a lot of spirit. A spiritual practitioner with 25 units of spirit can only condense a maximum of 5 Holy Armor Techniques? And they can only last for one or two minutes?”

After reading it, Ji Fuyou put the crystal down.

It's mentally draining.

He has too much equipment and skills, and his mental energy is already overloaded.

Even if you go all out, you might not be able to maintain it for very long.

In this situation, such a high-consumption skill is not very friendly to him.

Upon seeing this, Fang Qiyun couldn't help but feel a pang of panic: "Is this crystal... not good?"

"No, it's fine."

Ji Fuyou said sincerely.

This skill is indeed quite good.

Even if a high-level spiritual energy user with 25 points of spiritual awareness uses it on a master-level martial artist with 30 points of physical strength, it can increase defense by 3 points, and in some cases even by 4 or 5 points. For a high-level skill, it is definitely worth the money.

It's just not a good fit for him.

However, he did not inform Fang Qiyun of his current problem beforehand, which led to Fang Qiyun exchanging for such a heritage crystal, so naturally she cannot be blamed.

"We'll see whether to give this inheritance crystal to Liu Yiren or Yang Kaitai. With the defensive capabilities it provides, it will definitely greatly enhance your margin for error when you encounter danger."

Ji Fuyou smiled and said, "Although it only increases defense, in terms of practicality, it is no less than the Divine Martial Arts."

Fang Qiyun breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Ji Fuyou's words.

"Now that we've found something we like, let's go back."

"I also exchanged two bottles of Ten Thousand Snake Valley's specialty products."

As Fang Qiyun spoke, he took out two small bottles again: "These are strange items produced by the mutated giant python in the Valley of Ten Thousand Snakes. The divine oil in the blue bottle can reduce the mental burden of equipment, while the divine oil in the brown bottle can nourish weapons and repair divine weapons."

"Reduce the mental burden that equipment places on you?"

Ji Fuyou was slightly taken aback.

He quickly turned his gaze to the blue bottle: "How do I use it?"

"Use your mental power to guide the divine oil to penetrate the weapon you want to lighten its load."

Fang Qiyun said. Ji Fuyou quickly took out the Wuji Sword and tried to channel its power into the sword.

Soon, the energy from the bottle of blue divine oil seemed to come alive, permeating the Wuji Sword and harmoniously merging with it.

Once the two have merged, Ji Fuyou once again wields the Wuji Sword...

"This compatibility..."

A hint of surprise crossed his eyes.

The Wuji Sword can enhance mental strength by 3% to 5% in terms of compatibility.

Among them, when the compatibility is maintained at 3%, the mental consumption is relatively low, but when the compatibility reaches 5%, the mental consumption increases significantly.

Just like an ordinary person sprinting 100 meters at full speed versus running 100 meters at 60% of their sprint speed, the energy expenditure is on completely different levels.

However, with the use of this magical oil, his upper limit did not increase, but when he wanted to unleash the power of 50% compatibility, the consumption decreased by 10%!?

Moreover, judging from the speed at which the divine oil penetrated into the Wuji Sword just now...

"Can this miracle oil be used in multiple applications?"

Ji Fuyou immediately asked.

"Yes, depending on the quality of the magical weapon, the magic oil can often be applied and penetrated four or five times, and in some cases, six or seven times."

Fang Qiyun responded.

"How much does this 'miracle oil' cost now?"

"It is said that this kind of divine oil is produced in very small quantities in the Valley of Ten Thousand Snakes. However, since it only slightly reduces mental stress, the price is not high. I traded an S-class weapon for this bottle of divine oil."

Fang Qiyun said.

"Slight effect? ​​The effect of a bottle of magic oil is naturally slight, but if it can be applied repeatedly and penetrated four, five, six or seven times, then it is not as simple as slight."

Ji Fuyou immediately said, "I need you to set up an office here to buy this magical oil at twice the market price!"

After saying that, he seemed to remember something and added, "When necessary, we can exchange red physique source crystals for this divine oil."

"A red physique source crystal!?"

Fang Qiyun was startled.

With the increasing number of advanced and senior martial artists, the price of Red Physique Source Crystals has not only not decreased after the conclusion of the World's Number One Martial Arts Association, but has actually increased.

In the Association of Spiritual Abilities, the price has been raised to 12 contribution points per piece.

To buy a Red Physique Source Crystal on the underground market, you'd need at least 15 billion.

The 15 billion she referred to is not simply money, but its corresponding value; acquiring it also requires certain channels and resources.

Based on this calculation, Ji Fuyou intends to acquire this miraculous oil at almost three times the price.

"I'll make arrangements right away."

"I will try my best to prepare some blue spirit source crystals and red physique source crystals for you as the basic funds for acquiring these divine oils."

After Ji Fuyou finished speaking, he added, "You should acquire 10 bottles as soon as possible."

"Okay, I will take charge of this personally."

Fang Qiyun said cautiously.

"No need for that. It would be too conspicuous for a master-level martial artist like you to be buying up this kind of divine oil. It might easily arouse the suspicion of Zhu Long and others, causing them to also have the idea of ​​hoarding this kind of goods."

Ji Fuyou said, "Dragon Head Town and Ten Thousand Snake Valley are ultimately Zhu Long's territory. If he intervenes, we can't compete with him."

“Then I’ll have Jiang Ran stay here with Yu Chen and Du Ruofei to take charge of this matter.”

Fang Qiyun said.

"This is the most suitable way."

Ji Fuyou nodded.

The strength of Jiang Ran, Yu Chen, Du Ruofei, and others...

He could easily defeat even a high-level martial artist.

Staying in Longshou Town would be neither too weak nor too conspicuous.

At that moment, Fang Qiyun made a phone call to make arrangements.

After she finished making the arrangements, Ji Fuyou, feeling his nearly depleted assets, said, "Tell Yang Kaitai, Xiao Hanxue, and Liu Yiren to get ready. We'll meet at the entrance to the Misty Forest tomorrow, and I'll take you there."

"it is good."

Fang Qiyun quickly contacted several people.

After the call ended, she looked at Ji Fuyou and asked, "Shall we venture into the Misty Forest? Hunt down tree spirits?"

Of the five people in their team, all of them except Liu Yiren are master-level martial artists.

In the small, misty forest, the only thing they could truly confront was the thousand-year-old tree spirit.

"It's not a tree spirit."

As Ji Fuyou spoke, he glanced at Fang Qiyun and said seriously, "Our team is highly safe to enter the Misty Forest. However, as someone who has been wandering in the mist for many years, you should know that there is never a place in the mist that can be called absolutely safe. Therefore, we must not let our guard down just because we are going to the Misty Forest."

Upon hearing this, Fang Qiyun felt a chill run down her spine.

"I see."

At the same time, she also realized that the place Ji Fuyou was taking them to this time was probably more than just the Misty Forest.

In addition, Ji Fuyou had previously intended to elevate them to the master level of training...

If things go wrong, it could become an even more dangerous forbidden zone than the Great Rift Valley.
