Heavenly Ranking

Chapter 233 Parallel
The ruins of Yindu are divided into five layers: one on the surface and four underground.

He is currently on the fourth underground level.

If you try to explore further, you will encounter a maze.

That labyrinth, even in dreams, remained unsolved.

Time was of the essence, and he could no longer focus his energy on solving the maze, so he had no idea what lay beyond.

"The underground passages in the ruins of Yindu are 12 kilometers long, but... they have clearly changed significantly. The mist that shrouds the ruins of Yindu is not simply covering them; the spaces of two worlds have somehow intersected here..."

Ji Fuyou glanced at the passage, which was originally only 3 meters wide and 2 meters high, and suddenly expanded to 6 meters high and 9 meters wide. Even though it wasn't the first time he had experienced this, he still found it somewhat unbelievable.

In a daze, it felt as if two locations from two parallel worlds had overlapped.

The difference is that the other world has a strong emphasis on developing mythical beasts and a military system.

Red Star, however, took the path of technology.

"Oh!"

Before he could finish thinking, a boar-man was sent flying by Ji Fuyou's overwhelming power as he swung through the world in his Overlord form.

As for what happened behind him...

The other boar-man had already been pierced by the blade of the Wuji Sword.

"Too much."

The spirit of Ji Fuyou permeated the air.

Even though he had been mentally prepared in his dream, he still felt that there were too many wild boar people under the ruins of Yindu.

In particular, the unique environment of the underground space in the ruins of Yindu makes it inconvenient to carry out group battles, which means that the quality of the warriors who want to enter this area to fight the boar-men cannot be too low.

When traveling in a group, one must have at least a high-level strength.

How many high-level martial artists are there in the entire Federation?
"Unless all the masters and high-level martial artists of the Federation come out in full force and flood into the ruins of Yindu, the boar people in the ruins of Yindu will not be able to be completely wiped out in 6 to 12 hours."

Ji Fuyou was certain.

If the fog monsters are not completely eliminated within 6 to 12 hours, this location is essentially anchored to another world.

At that time, this fog will become a permanent fog, and a continuous stream of boar-men will pour into the ruins of Yindu through the fog.

If the boar-men are not eliminated in time, the fog will spread outwards.

Given time, the city of quicksand will likely be completely swallowed up.

"wrong!"

Ji Fuyou glanced at the boar-man he had shot down with the Wuji Sword: "The boar-men are very productive, with source crystals, divine weapon materials, and inheritance crystals—they have everything. Although the boar-men are currently much stronger than many hunters, but..."

He was almost certain: "In another year or two, the number of advanced martial artists and master-level martial artists will increase significantly. The boar people, who are close to Flowing Sand City and have high output, will definitely become a paradise for all high-level hunters."

"boom!"

Flames burst forth.

Ji Fuyou blocked an attack from a black boar-man that suddenly attacked.

The violent power contained in the spiked club was so great that even he was affected, his arm went numb.

"call out!"

The Wuji Sword roared.

As he blocked the attack, the flying sword pierced through the head of the black boar-man.

"I take back what I said earlier. The boar-men are incredibly strong and can inflict astonishing damage. Even a high-level martial artist would be injured or killed if they were touched. They are extremely unfriendly to martial artists. On the other hand, they are very unfriendly to mental energy users... If I had mastered Soul Blast, I could probably take them all down in one go. This place should be the domain of mental energy users and mental masters."

Ji Fuyou thought to himself that his Mind's Eye had already detected the location of Target No. 5.

However, there were many red and black wild boars and large moths around Target 5.

The large moth is a type of war beast raised by the boar people. It can spray toxins in a small area, slowing down people's limbs and even making them unable to move.

Fortunately, the Overlord's true form can withstand the effects of the toxins.

However, the effects of these toxins can accumulate, and if the quantity is too large, it will still exceed the resistance limit of the Overlord's true form.

Therefore, after locking onto target number 5, the first thing he shot down with his sword was these large moths.

As the flying sword pierced the air, instantly killing a large moth, target number 5, the pale boarman, reacted immediately, growling and leading a large number of boarmen to charge forward.

When Ji Fuyou arrived, he had already cleared out an area.

Faced with the horde of monsters rushing towards him, he retreated rapidly, but the Wuji Sword, controlled by the Sword Control Technique, never stopped, constantly weaving through and shooting down the monsters.

They fought and retreated, quickly killing most of the moths and boarmen around target number 5.

However, the boar-men are clearly not purely wild beasts.

They have their own civilization, writing system, and could even be considered a type of orc.

Upon realizing that Ji Fuyou was powerful and difficult to deal with, the pale boar-man chose to retreat immediately, roaring as it summoned the surrounding boar-men.

"Alien beasts are somewhat easier to deal with, but trying to outrun intelligent beings using kiting tactics... is quite difficult."

Upon seeing this, Ji Fuyou paused slightly as he retreated.

A period of mental upheaval, a time to hone one's strength.

Deflection force field formation.

Immediately afterwards, the Dragon's Will was activated.

A surge of fighting spirit filled his entire body.

Heavenly Demon Disintegration Technique - Partial Disintegration.

The next moment, Ji Fuyou, who had been retreating, suddenly surged forward, charging ahead with great strides. As the two boar-men roared and tried to block his path…

A rampage across the world erupted.

"Oh!"

The two boar-men that charged forward didn't even manage to touch Ji Fuyou's body before being sent flying backwards by the impact, crashing heavily into the third and fourth boar-men, sending them sprawling.

However, it seems that a captain-level monster is hidden among these boar-men.

As Ji Fuyou defeated the four boar-men, the spiked club in his hand slammed down, striking Ji Fuyou's body squarely.

However, this thunderous blow, powerful enough to smash a car into a pie, landed on Ji Fuyou, yet it couldn't even break the deflection field.

The attack was tilted by the deflecting force field, and the spiked club in his hand flew out involuntarily.

Throughout the entire process, Ji Fuyou did not pause for even a moment.

As his foot landed, his strength surged forth, and he had already passed the boar-man captain, fiercely charging in front of the pale boar-man.

"Roar!"

Facing Ji Fuyou's frontal charge, the pale boar-man roared and fiercely met the attack.

The massive meteor hammer crashed down with a devastating blow, unleashing destructive power and lethality in that instant...

Even deflection fields cannot completely resist it.

However, Ji Fuyou's methods did not stop at direct confrontation.

Just as the two were about to collide, the Wuji Sword shot towards him first.

Having learned of the terrifying power of the Wuji Sword, the Pale Boar Man had to change his tactics, intending to use his extraordinary combat skills to first intercept the Wuji Sword and then defeat Ji Fuyou.

pity……

When the monster was distracted by intercepting the Wuji Sword, the battle could be said to have come to an end.

Ji Fuyou directly upgraded the Heavenly Demon Disintegration Technique to its full disintegration state.

The already extremely fast speed suddenly increased dramatically.

Furthermore, coupled with the unparalleled dominance of the Overlord's true form...

He charged forward at a speed far exceeding the Pale Boarman's expectations.

The cold light of the Frost Sword, carrying a terrifying sharpness, shone brightly.

The sudden turn of events caused the boar-man leader to roar in anger, unleashing a burst of power from his entire body and concentrating it in his arm. This created a visible protective force in his arm, which blocked the sharp edge of the Frost Sword.

But Ji Fuyou had clashed with these pale boar-men so many times in his dreams, how could he not know what their trump cards were?
The innate armor-piercing sword energy, which had been prepared long ago, condensed into a powerful force and exploded violently against the pale boar-man's protective energy.

This seemingly indestructible protective force was directly breached.

Amidst the terrified roar of the boar-man leader, the Frostblade pierced upwards, disappearing into his skull like lightning.

Half of the sword blade protruded from the back of his head.

"laugh!"

As Ji Fuyou drew his Frost Sword, the pale boar-man's massive body suddenly collapsed.

Before his corpse could even fully hit the ground, he quickly picked out a red physique source crystal and a inheritance crystal from the monster's body.

Target number 5 was actually located at the deepest level of the fourth underground level of the Yindu Ruins, but he still fought his way here, overcoming numerous wild boar-men and monsters to kill him, because the loot on his body was worth the time and effort he had spent.

This heirloom crystal...

It was none other than the Overlord's True Form that Ji Fuyou had already learned.

The technique the Pale Boarman used to block the Frost Sword was a combination of the Overlord's True Form and another protective secret technique.

only……

For some unknown reason, the method of circulating that protective energy did not form a legacy crystal to become his spoils of war.

"We've obtained the four most important inheritance crystals. This trip to the ruins of Yindu has been very fruitful. Things will be much easier from now on."

Ji Fuyou smiled.

He glanced at the pale boarman's flail...

The materials used in this meteor hammer are actually quite precious, with a small amount of Asura Stone added.

However, the meteor hammer's astonishing weight forced Ji Fuyou to temporarily abandon it.

At that moment, Ji Fuyou turned around and headed towards target number 6.

……

Targets number 6, 7, and 8 are basically all Pale Boarmen.

However, its nature is similar to that of the giant mutated earwig, consisting only of red body source crystals, plus some materials that can be used to forge quasi-divine weapons.

Due to the weight of the meteor hammer, he had to temporarily abandon the materials and first put the red physique source crystal into his pocket.

When he had killed target number 9 and spent more than ten minutes without finding target number 10, he decisively gave up and decided not to stay on the fourth underground level any longer.

They returned at full speed and soon arrived not far from the exit of the third floor, carrying the meteor hammer containing the Cold Moon Crystal that they had previously hidden.

With the meteor hammer weighing over 100 kilograms on his back, his agility was noticeably affected to a slight extent.

Fortunately, he discarded several other meteor hammers; otherwise, carrying four or five hundred kilograms of weight, he wouldn't have been able to fight the Pale Boarmen anymore.

Upon arriving at the third floor, Ji Fuyou quickly headed to the area where Fang Qiyun and Xiao Hanxue were located and met up with them.

"I don't know how things are going on their end. We can do without the weapon containing the Purgatory Iron, but the two inheritance crystals... I hope we can get them successfully."
