Heavenly Ranking

Chapter 232 Harvest
"Pale Boar Man".

Ji Fuyou, located on the third level of the Yindu Ruins, stretched out his right hand.

The Wuji Sword seemed to have a life of its own, constantly flying around his right hand, poised to strike.

When the fog in front of them thickened to a certain extent, a three-meter-tall, ferocious-looking figure suddenly strode out of the fog.

Almost the instant the monster strode out, the power of the purple gemstone, the gemstone bracelet, and even the treasure armor on its body was fully activated. Driven by the powerful spiritual connection and spiritual scale, the Wuji Sword in its hand was like an electromagnetic railgun shell that was shot out!

The moment it burst through the air, it created three visible rings of mist.

Before the towering figure that had just appeared could even grasp its surroundings, it already sensed a deadly crisis.

His extremely sharp reflexes caused him to roar and intercept the direction in which the Wuji Sword was shooting out.

In theory...

Even if this monster's reaction speed is too fast to intercept the Wuji Sword, its counterattack will still affect the Wuji Sword to some extent, thus providing an opportunity for this commander-level white boarman to survive the Wuji Sword.

pity……

In the dream, Ji Fuyou killed this monster more than a hundred times.

They know exactly how this monster will react when attacked.

As he charged at the Wuji Sword at the cost of his arm, the Wuji Sword made an extremely subtle turn.

"laugh!"

The next moment, the cold blade of the sword pierced the pale boarman's arm as it intercepted him, and went straight through his head without stopping.

The innate armor-piercing sword energy carried on the blade exploded as it pierced the monster's head, almost shattering the inside of its skull.

Even though this monster possesses far greater attack and destructive power than the Fertile Guardian, it cannot unleash even a fraction of its full potential.

And so, feeling stifled, he was carried away by the inertia of the piercing force and fell backward.

Its enormous body crashed to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.

"The monster that chased me for 500 meters in my dream, leaving me with nowhere to go."

Ji Fuyou sighed inwardly.

But his steps were not slow at all, and he instantly arrived in front of the huge corpse of the pale boarman, skillfully picking out the two red crystals.

One of these two crystals is an ordinary red physique source crystal.

But the other one...

"The Blazing Sun Sword Technique! I've finally got it!"

Holding this inheritance crystal, even though he had seen countless storms, he still felt a surge of excitement.

Blazing Sun Sword Technique!

The name sounds rather ordinary!
But its power is incredibly strong!

This sword technique requires both spirit and physique to reach 35 points before one can practice it!
Visualize a blazing sun in the spiritual world, and when the time comes to release it, detonate this visualized sun, transforming it into an unprecedented eternal flame that interferes with the microscopic level, and then release it with the support of vital energy.

He had witnessed the Fengwo Guardian use this sword technique at the Fengwo Temple, where it unleashed astonishing damage.

But actually...

"Depending on the size and stability of the visualized blazing sun, one can unleash up to 1.4 times the damage upon initial mastery! At the intermediate level, it's 1.8 times, and so on. Upon reaching perfection, the damage will skyrocket to 2.6 times!"

Ji Fuyou sensed the information contained in this inheritance crystal.

2.6x damage!
His current injuries are actually not that high.

But if one could truly master this swordsmanship, gaining a 2.6x damage bonus...

He dares to challenge the leader of the Fengwo Sect to a duel!
This is a deadly sword strike that can scare away gods and demons, and no one can stop it.

Even though there is a considerable interval between each release and the need to visualize the blazing sun again, such an attack can still elevate a martial artist's combat power to an unprecedented level.

"Although this inheritance crystal is still in the category of top-tier skills, it is definitely the ultimate among top-tier skills. Even the Limitless Sword Intent and the Deflection Force Field will pale in comparison to it."

Ji Fuyou understood.

That's why he dealt with the pale boar-man first.

Before he could process the inheritance crystal, his body didn't pause at all. He burst out with power from his feet, as if flying close to the ground.

In order to reach the location of Target No. 1 as quickly as possible, it relied on the power of its Overlord True Form and the deflection force field to smash through several earthen walls.

During this time, a large number of boarmen, including the boarman captain, emerged from the mist, but he ignored them all and flew at full speed toward target number 1.

This goal...

It is not the second pale boar-man.

It was just a black boar-man captain.

The black boar-man captain, who had just emerged from the mist, was roaring and summoning the boar-men to gather around him in a language different from human civilization.

He wore simple armor and carried a thick spiked club. Even if you couldn't understand his language, you could still tell from his cursing and swearing when he yelled at the other boar-men.

pity……

Before the boar-man captain could gather the surrounding boar-men, a cold sword light that tore through the mist shot out and instantly pierced his head through the air.

The inertia carried by the flying sword caused the black boar captain's massive body to slam heavily to the ground.

The boar-men around seemed stunned by this sudden turn of events, but the next moment, they all roared in unison, howling in the direction from which the flying sword came.

They didn't need to avenge their captain; Ji Fuyou's figure followed closely behind, bursting through the mist.

The berserk power of the Overlord descended from the sky, crushing the skull of the nearest red boar-man with a single stomp, its massive body tilting as it slammed heavily into the ground.

Before the other boarmen could react, Ji Fuyou, descending from the sky, had already raised his Frost Sword and instantly extracted a special crystal, glowing red and resembling a chip, from the black boarman captain's mind. The Inheritance Crystal!

This is clearly a red inheritance crystal!
This boar captain, whose strength was not even as great as that of the Fertile Guards, actually had a red inheritance crystal forming in his mind!
especially……

This red inheritance crystal is also incredibly mystical!
The bloodline of the divine beast has been awakened!
The mythical beast here refers to the ancestor of all beasts—the Qilin!
Through long-term hybridization and evolution, ninety percent of the beasts in the world now possess the bloodline of the Qilin, differing only in the degree of this bloodline.

The skill "Awakening the Divine Beast Bloodline" relies on the spiritual power of a master to stimulate the deeply hidden Qilin bloodline within a beast, causing it to evolve into the divine beast Qilin.

The stronger the bloodline a beast possesses, the faster and more effective its evolution will be.

If it's a top-tier bloodline...

These mythical beasts can become so powerful that they can even fight against the Flourishing Lord!
"Although this skill only requires a spirit level of 35 to use, unlike the 35 physique requirement of the Blazing Sun Sword Technique, its power is probably not much inferior to the Blazing Sun Sword Technique. As for its specific effects, we'll have to see how it performs when used."

Ji Fuyou's thoughts drifted.

It was precisely because of the power of this inherited crystal's skill that Ji Fuyou ignored all the other monsters, including the pale boarman, and rushed 3 kilometers away, making the black boarman captain his first target.

After hunting down the black boar-man captain, Ji Fuyou continued his operation.

Head straight for target number 2.

However, the reason why target number 2 is ranked number 2 is simply because after he killed target number 1, his direction was already in line with target number 3.

Of course, the fact that Ji Fuyou specifically marked this red boar-man captain meant that he was somewhat special.

His mace-like weapon actually contained a trace of shimmering silver.

Although the quantity is small, and after refining it is not enough to forge a flying sword, its value...

That's at least equivalent to tens of thousands of contribution points.

This is equivalent to a red physique source crystal.

"call out!"

The sword light flashes across the sky.

The Red Boarman captain didn't even have time to see his target before Ji Fuyou's Wuji Sword pierced his head.

Ji Fuyou flew over, took the spiked club from the boarman captain, and then directly broke through the encirclement of the surrounding angry boarmen, leaving triumphantly.

Soon, Ji Fuyou arrived at target number 3.

After killing the boar-man captain with lightning speed, he held another inheritance crystal in his hand.

Demon-Suppressing Spell!
"I finally got my hands on the original version of the Soul-Suppressing Curse."

Ji Fuyou smiled.

He tucked the crystal into his pocket.

3 Heirloom Crystals!
A red crystal representing three top-tier heritages!

Good harvest!

It was an absolute windfall!

If we don't count the Void Teleportation Authority, the gains from these three Inheritance Crystals have already surpassed those from killing the Flourishing Sect Master in the Heavenly Ranking Trial.

Time was of the essence, so he didn't have time to carefully examine the three inheritance crystals, which were worth a total of 70 million contribution points, and headed straight for the fourth floor.

In his dream, he was already quite familiar with the fourth level of the Yindu Ruins.

He found a total of 7 pale boar-men here.

Including a boar-man captain, all of them were on his hunting sequence.

Of course, whether the two pale boarmen with serial numbers 10 and 11 can be successfully hunted is still unknown.

Upon arriving at the fourth level, Ji Fuyou's first destination was the Pale Boarman, his fourth target.

Having completely emerged from the fog, Ji Fuyou was unable to catch the pale boar off guard. The two sides did clash, which delayed things slightly.

But the result remained unchanged.

"Hopefully, target number 5 will be alright."

Ji Fuyou said in a low voice.

In terms of value, Target 5 is superior to this pale boar-man.

but……

Besides a red physique source crystal, the key thing about this pale boar-man is his weapon.

A large meteor hammer.

It looks somewhat crudely made, but any master craftsman skilled in weapon forging would immediately recognize that this meteor hammer contains the precious material Cold Moon Crystal.

For modern martial artists, weapons made from this material are arguably the most valuable weapons besides the Judgment Divine Iron.

Ji Fuyou needs a weapon made from such a material to make up for the increasingly insufficient lethality of the Cold Frost Sword.

That's why he prioritized this pale boar-man as number 4.

"The user of the meteor hammer is three meters tall, which is too big and too heavy for me to carry. Fortunately, I already had a solution in my dream."

Ji Fuyou, carrying the meteor hammer, quickly hid it in a nearby ditch and skillfully covered it with sand and stones.

After doing all this, he rushed back to the location of target number 5.

Number 5 is also the last target in the ruins of Yindu to possess a top-tier inheritance crystal.
