Heavenly Ranking

Chapter 247 Base
"It's quiet now?"

Xiao Hanxue opened her eyes wide.

"It seems to be more than just quiet down."

Yang Kaitai fought against the mutated wolf spiders surrounding him.

Ji Fuyou then made a gesture, no longer interfering with Liu Yiren, and joined the team clearing out the mutated spiders in the surrounding area.

With his addition, although mutated spiders occasionally emerged from the depths of the jungle, they were never able to get within tens of meters of the group.

at last……

After a full minute, Liu Yiren said, "It's okay, let's go."

Ji Fuyou's gaze immediately fell on the archer: "He..."

Liu Yiren smiled slightly.

As she pointed at one of the mutated spiders, the archer behind her quickly drew his bow.

The next moment, an arrow, no less powerful than the one used to intercept Ji Fuyou, whistled through the air and pierced the body of the mutated wolf spider.

"They've really got it under control?"

"His mind has been severely damaged by the Blood Moon Demon King's power, leaving him with only some basic life instincts. In some ways... he's no different from a beast..."

Liu Yiren paused as she spoke, "It's a relatively weak beast, so it's quite easy for me to control."

She added, "Even easier than orc warriors."

Corrupted by the power of the Blood Moon Demon King...

Ji Fuyou glanced at the archer.

He is clearly a martial artist who specializes in movement techniques and agility.

Relying on his superior agility, even when facing a Martial Saint head-on, even if he was no match for him, he could still retreat with ease.

In addition, his skill in archery and long-range shooting gives him a deterrent effect that is in no way inferior to that of a master swordsman.

"Then train him well. If you use him well, you'll essentially have an ace up your sleeve."

Ji Fuyou Road.

Liu Yiren nodded.

"Let's leave this jungle first."

Ji Fuyou spoke again.

Without the interference of this "archer," even if ten or eight mutated spiders came from the surrounding area, they would still not pose much of a threat to their team.

Especially now that Liu Yiren can command this archer to attack.

After a distance of several hundred meters, the group quickly retreated from the incredibly lush jungle.

As the group left the jungle, the mutated spiders inside did not pursue them.

The dazzling sunlight outside was too intimidating for them.

Unless ordered to do so, they will not easily step out of the jungle to their deaths.

"Is this archer a master from Rainbow Sun City who fell into Blood Moon Canyon? And was he controlled by the power of the Blood Moon Demon King and turned into a puppet to fight against the masters of Rainbow Sun City?"

Fang Qiyun glanced at the archers behind him, his eyes filled with deep apprehension: "That Blood Moon Demon King is probably much stronger than we imagined, perhaps... even one or two levels higher than a Martial Saint."

"That's obvious."

Ji Fuyou Road.

Although he has never fought against a Martial Saint, his current physical attributes are not far from those of a Martial Saint.

Furthermore, with the blessing of the Dragon's Will...

Even if a Martial Saint condenses a life force field and undergoes a qualitative transformation in strength, it is impossible for him to suddenly become invincible.

Combined with some videos he saw of the Martial Saint making a move...

He estimated that the Martial Saint's strength was not even as great as that of the two-headed giant.

He should be on the same level as the Confucian master, but slightly inferior to him.

Just like ordinary master-level martial artists and master-level martial artists with top-notch skills.

Although there are differences in strength, they still belong to the same stage.

And the Blood Moon Demon King...

It is definitely a level above the Two-Headed Giant and the Enhanced Fertile Lord.

"The matter of Blood Moon Canyon is not something we can get involved in right now. At least, it's too dangerous for anyone without the strength of a Martial Saint to come here."

Ji Fuyou Road.

Yang Kaitai, Fang Qiyun, Xiao Hanxue and others nodded in deep agreement.

It was better in the Daylight Forest earlier.

Although monsters like mutated tarantulas exist, they appear very infrequently, and with the four of them working together, their safety is well guaranteed.

But this dense jungle before us...

Everywhere there were all sorts of mutated spiders, and countless more of these monsters were hidden deep in the jungle. For these master-level martial artists, walking through it was truly like dancing on a tightrope.

And this is only the outer perimeter of Blood Moon Canyon.

It's hard to imagine how dangerous it would be to venture deep into Blood Moon Canyon, or even to the lair of the Blood Moon Demon King.

It is likely that even those above the Martial Saint level would perish if they went there and were not careful.

“Ms. Liu, since this archer comes from Rainbow Sun City, and we are also very curious about information about Rainbow Sun City, you might as well try to see if you can get some information about Rainbow Sun City from him.”

Ji Fuyou glanced at Liu Yiren: "In the future, we will eventually have to deal with Hongri City. It's good to know about it sooner rather than later so that we can know ourselves and our enemy."

"I see."

Liu Yiren nodded, then said with a hint of helplessness, "However, I'm afraid it will be difficult. When I established contact with him, I could clearly feel that his consciousness had been almost completely destroyed. Apart from some of the most basic life instincts, there was almost nothing left."

"Do your best."

Ji Fuyou Road.

The spiritual realm is mysterious and unpredictable, and he cannot force it.

"We're leaving the Daylight Forest and the Misty Forest now. Don't linger; head straight to the Death Rift Valley to find the mutated giant centipede and collect its venom..."

Ji Fuyou said, not wanting to be too explicit: "In short, for the next month or two, we will continue to stay in the fog and observe the situation."

Yang Kaitai, Fang Qiyun, and Liu Yiren quickly understood his meaning.

They have also been paying close attention to the matter of the Heavenly Horn during this period.

Ji Fuyou's statement... "They're already under the protection of psychic beings, how could they possibly be in danger?"

Fang Qiyun couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

"perhaps."

Ji Fuyou did not give a precise answer.

Yang Kaitai gave a wry smile and looked at Ji Fuyou: "Captain, I have a pretty good relationship with Luo Suyu, Lei Yue, and Ling Yu. I... could I remind them?"

"Your reminder might not be useful. Do you think they'll trust the Association of Spiritual Powerful People more, or you more?"

Ji Fuyou Road.

"Do your best to obey fate."

Yang Kaitai said.

Ji Fuyou understood that he was just seeking peace of mind.

He immediately said, "Send it."

He considered the increasing number of mist monsters in his dream years later, the major cities that were almost entirely militarized, and finally, the massive Titans, each hundreds of meters tall and as large as mountains, and the final world-destroying monster that would devour the heavens and the earth...

He added, "If the worst happens... if they trust me, they can come to me. Just a few people, I should be able to protect them."

He was well aware of the risks he would take by saying those words.

He was also well aware of his own philosophy of helping others when he was successful and cultivating his own virtue when he was unsuccessful.

but……

Some things have to be said, and some things have to be done.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to get over his own conscience.

Yang Kaitai was taken aback when he heard Ji Fuyou's promise.

He then replied solemnly, "I understand, I will pass it on to them."

"Ah."

……

On the way back, Ji Fuyou took a break and refined the purple physique source crystal.

The physique stat increased from 38.6 to 39.5, but the increase was less than 1 point.

But when it reaches this number...

He's basically standing on the threshold of becoming a Martial Saint.

If all goes well, a single purple physique crystal could even be enough to break through the gates of a Martial Saint.

If things don't go well...

The numerous masters who were stuck at the gates of the Martial Saint are the best examples.

……

Outside the misty forest, it was just as lively as ever.

Countless intelligent people could sense the arrival of a great era of extraordinary beings and tried every means to enter the realm of the extraordinary as soon as possible.

Therefore, those with money naturally offered high prices to acquire white physique source crystals, while those without money risked their lives, trying to use traps and mechanisms to fight against those alien beasts with at least a thousand pounds of strength with their own flesh and blood.

As for those who have neither money nor courage...

Since you are unwilling to take risks, it means you have chosen to prioritize safety and be content with mediocrity, and you must be prepared to blend into the crowd.

Ji Fuyou will not offer any comment.

Upon his return, he promptly turned on his phone.

This trip to the Misty Forest lasted ten days, which is quite a long time, and I accumulated a considerable amount of information on my phone.

But there's basically nothing urgent or pressing.

As a spiritual master, he confines his circle to the small place of Starlight City, and at most, he doesn't even leave Chuzhou. What could possibly happen that would be considered a big deal to him?

After reviewing the documents, he said to the group, "The villas outside Yunjing Garden are almost finished. You can start moving over when you have time."

"Ah."

Yang Kaitai responded.

Fang Qiyun then asked, "Fuyou, don't you plan to settle down in Tiandu City in the future?"

"Tian Du City is nice, but for me, it's not as peaceful and comfortable as Xing Guang City. So why should I force myself to move to another place?"

Ji Fuyou Road.

“In that case, I think we can take over the land on the other side and build a residential area so that people around us can live there in the future.”

As Fang Qiyun spoke, a hint of solemnity crossed his face: "I don't know how powerful the Blood Moon Demon King of Blood Moon Canyon is, but Rainbow Sun City can illuminate tens of thousands of square kilometers with a single, blazing sun. That kind of power... is unimaginable..."

Her words made Yang Kaitai and Liu Yiren's expressions also become serious.

It shines on hundreds of thousands of square kilometers of land!

This kind of technology and capability is incredible to even think about.

And the Blood Moon Demon King...

Then you can directly confront this power!
"If this force is allowed to spread, even the world's modern firearms, and even nuclear weapons, may not be able to withstand it."

Fang Qiyun said.

"what do you mean……"

"To prepare for the future, we should establish a community similar to a safe base. If an irreparable situation arises in the future, we can at least evacuate our relatives and friends to this area and use our resources to provide them with shelter."

Fang Qiyun said.

"Should we build that community as our backup plan?"

Yang Kaitai looked at her.

"Ah."

Fang Qiyun nodded.

Ji Fuyou glanced at her...

She is quite safety-conscious.

"If you think it's necessary, then do it. If you're going to do it, do it well. Everything should be done according to the standards of a military defense base."
