Heavenly Ranking

Chapter 237 Ancient Books
"Gu Qing?"

Ji Fuyou opened his phone.

His last conversation with this first spiritual master was just over ten days ago.

He sent him a photo of the materials.

"Could this material really possess some kind of divine power?"

Knowing the generosity of this first spiritual master, he quickly replied, "I'm here."

"This material might be useful to me; I want to see the actual item."

"can."

Ji Fuyou said, "A transaction at my residence?"

There was a pause on the other end before a reply was sent.

"I'm already here."

"??"

Ji Fuyou was somewhat speechless.

Does this Master Gu never give a heads-up before he comes? Does he just like to launch sneak attacks without warning?

and many more!

In theory, a master exploring the mist would typically spend only three to five days, or at most ten days to half a month.

More than a month has passed and there has still been no news; something must have happened.

He sent the image of this document to Gu Qing more than half a month ago, so it's possible...

This wasn't the second time that Master Gu had secretly visited their home.

and so……

You wouldn't have bothered sending messages or making phone calls if you hadn't already made several wasted trips, right?

"I am coming over now."

As Ji Fuyou spoke, he stood up and made a phone call to Zhang Luocheng, asking him to arrange a helicopter.

He changed his clothes and knocked on the door of Yang Kaitai, Fang Qiyun, Liu Yiren, Xiao Hanxue and others: "I need to go back early. I will leave the materials for the divine weapon. You can find someone to forge it immediately. The same goes for the Cold Moon Mystic Crystal. I will send you the parameters of the battle sword I need."

"clear."

Fang Qiyun nodded.

"The weapons are finished. Take a break and get used to them before heading to the Daylight Forest."

"Do you need help?"

Fang Qiyun inquired.

Going back at this time means something must have happened.

"No need, let's make a deal."

Ji Fuyou gave a brief explanation.

When he left the restaurant, the car arranged by Zhang Luocheng was already waiting at the door, taking him directly towards the ruins of Yindu.

At some point, a section of the road there had been cleared to create a runway, and several small planes were parked around it.

As soon as the vehicle arrived, Zhang Luocheng quickly came forward: "Master Ji, do you have important business to attend to back in Starlight City? We happen to have a private plane available here. I will apply for the flight path to Starlight City and landing permits for Nebula Airport for Master Ji right away."

"can."

Ji Fuyou nodded.

The distance from Liusha City to Xingguang City is more than 800 kilometers, and it takes 2 to 3 hours by helicopter.

But these private jets can arrive in just one hour.

Even though take-off and landing take some time, all things considered, it is still much faster than a helicopter.

Because Zhang Luocheng had made a series of arrangements in advance.

Less than 10 minutes after Ji Fuyou boarded the plane, it took off and soared into the sky, heading straight for Xingyun Airport in Xingguang City.

During this period, Ji Fuyou also digested the two inheritance crystals, the Demon-Suppressing Curse and the Crescent Moon Blade.

Among them, the Demon Suppression Spell is an enhanced version of the Soul Suppression Spell, and it is learned when the Spirit value is 28.

The Crescent Moon Blade is a martial arts skill, a method of applying internal force.

Although it is called "Knife Qi," it is perfectly acceptable to use other weapons such as swords and spears.

This skill allows the practitioner's burst of internal energy to explode upon hitting a target, and this exploded energy will cause controlled damage to surrounding targets.

It can be considered an area-of-effect (AoE) skill.

Of course, the power of a scattered blade aura is obviously inferior to that of a condensed blade aura.

Therefore, this skill can only be used to bully weaker beasts and warriors, increasing the killing efficiency when outnumbered.

This is also why Ji Fuyou felt that the two skills were unremarkable among top-tier inheritances.

……

Time passed swiftly as Ji Fuyou digested the four great inheritances.

An hour later, the plane landed at Nebula Airport.

Having received the call earlier, Lu Xingchen was already waiting at the airport in his car.

As soon as Ji Fuyou got off the plane, he went straight to Jiangtao Pavilion.

In just 40 minutes, we arrived outside the villa.

Compared to the last time he saw Gu Qing, his mental strength has now reached 31, transforming him into a master-level mental energy user.

but……

Even though he knew Gu Qing had arrived at his residence, he still couldn't sense Gu Qing's presence.

He only realized where Gu Qing was after Gu Qing emerged from a patch of grass.

Looking at Gu Qing, who was dressed in a dark robe and had been squatting in the grass for nearly two hours, Ji Fuyou didn't know what to say.

"You can come to my house for a while first."

After a long while, Ji Fuyou finally spoke.

Gu Qing waved his hand, saying, "Let me see the things first."

"Then, shall we come in?"

"No, I don't like interacting with other people."

Gu Qingdao.

Ji Fuyou gave him a strange look.

Is this number one psychic simply incredibly low-key, or...?

iperson?
Social anxiety?

However, since Gu Qing had already said so, he didn't insist. He quickly went back, took out the dark green material, and handed it to him.

With the item in hand, Gu Qing quickly activated his spirit, causing the surface of the material to vibrate at a high frequency.

After only a brief tremor, the dark outer layer of the material shattered as if shedding its skin, revealing a jade-like substance beneath. Looking at those translucent green hues, Ji Fuyou knew without a doubt that this material was incredibly valuable.

but……

He didn't seem to regret it at all.

Although he knew this material was extraordinary, he didn't know its specific function, so keeping it in his possession was of little use.

Instead of letting it gather dust at home, it's better to replace it with something usable.

Gu Qing's ability to identify and acquire this material is a testament to his skill.

"how?"

"It's what I want."

Gu Qing nodded, then looked at Ji Fuyou: "What do you want?"

"Spiritual Source Crystal".

Ji Fuyou asked, "How about three red spirit source crystals?"

"3 pieces..."

Gu Qing frowned slightly, seemingly thinking it was a bit too expensive.

But after a moment, he took out a small bag from his body, took out three red spirit source crystals from it, and handed them over: "Transaction complete."

agreed?
Ji Fuyou was somewhat surprised.

"Thank you."

He quickly took the source crystal.

Then, out of curiosity, he asked, "What is this thing used for? Is it really worth 3 red spirit crystals?"

Whether it's worth it or not is a matter of opinion.

Gu Qing paused as she spoke, "As for its function... I only read about it in an ancient book from another world. It's one of the materials in the 'Heaven's Cry' series. It's said that if you collect four of them, you can pray to the gods and have one request granted..."

Pray to God to grant me one request!

god! ?

Ji Fuyou's pupils contracted slightly.

The existence of gods in other worlds has been confirmed by countless remaining traces of information.

That is definitely a powerful life form that can be considered the ultimate in another world.

This existence satisfies one requirement...

What kind of divine object must that be?
However, now that the deal is done, he has no reason to regret it.

Then, out of curiosity, he asked again, "What about that Rakshasa Stone from before? Has your divine weapon been forged yet?"

"Ah."

Gu Qing responded.

After pondering for a moment, considering that Ji Fuyou had provided Rakshasa Stone as the main material, he reached out and took out a blood-red rapier.

The sword is not long; including the hilt, it is less than 1.2 meters long.

The sword blade appears very slender, and its design resembles that of a flying sword.

Its dark red color gives off an ominous feeling.

"Would it be convenient to talk about the effects?"

"Damage 10, Spiritual affinity 2%, Spirit value increased by 3 seconds, and it seems to have the Precision trait."

"this?"

Ji Fuyou was somewhat surprised to hear this.

This attribute...

Very general.

It's at best on par with the Silver Flying Sword.

"However, this sword has some unique characteristics. It only deals 10 damage, but it has decent armor penetration capabilities, ignoring about 15 points of defense. Its mental compatibility is only 2%, yet it can suppress other equipment..."

Gu Qing glanced at Ji Fuyou as he said this: "For example, it suppresses the Dragon's Will, so that cultivators do not need to distract themselves to maintain the confrontation with the Dragon's Will and still stimulate the power of the Dragon's Will. In addition, it only increases the mental scale by 3 points, but it can increase mental resistance by 4 points."

Ji Fuyou was stunned after hearing this.

"This kind of divine weapon effect..."

Very weird.

After explaining the weapon's attributes, Gu Qing silently turned around and prepared to leave.

At this moment, Ji Fuyou seemed to have thought of something and suddenly asked, "You can read ancient books from other worlds? Then do you know about the Blood Moon Demon King?"

"The Blood Moon Demon King?"

Gu Qing shook his head: "I have seen records of demon kings in ancient books, but there was only one Black Sky Demon King and one Blood Moon Demon King... I have never heard of them."

"The Black Demon King!?"

Besides the Blood Moon Demon King, there's also a Black Sky Demon King!?

Ji Fuyou felt heavy-hearted.

Gu Qing then took this opportunity to leave quickly.

By the time Ji Fuyou came to his senses, he was already gone.

This left him with no opportunity to inquire further about his views on the future of the Federation.

"Speaking of which, this Master Gu is clearly the first spiritual master, and even gave rise to the Sword Intent School. However, his reputation among ordinary people and low-level cultivators is not very high. In fact, when I chat with him, he can still make people unconsciously ignore his presence time and time again, which is also an incredible characteristic."

Ji Fuyou looked in the direction where Gu Qing had disappeared.

If he were to acquire skills such as the Illusionary Shadowless Technique and the Great Cloud Concealment Technique...

Wouldn't it be a piece of cake for them to sneak into dangerous places in the future?
Shaking his head, Ji Fuyou returned to the villa.

When the golden, flashing phantom arrived at the gate of the villa, Ji Qingqing had already noticed that Ji Fuyou had returned.

However, seeing that he was discussing business with someone, they didn't come up to disturb him.

Ji Qingqing didn't come downstairs until Ji Fuyou entered the courtyard.

"Xiao You? Why didn't you invite him in for a seat?"

"He probably didn't have that idea."

Ji Fuyou responded.

Next, he inquired about what had happened at home and asked about Yu Xiaoyu's health.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, he couldn't wait to take out all three red spirit source crystals, including the purple one.

Without much hesitation, the three spiritual source crystals transformed into the foundation of his spiritual power, pushing him even closer to his limit.

And that purple spiritual crystal...

It is on the basis of his spirit approaching its limit that he breaks that limit once again.
