Heavenly Ranking

Chapter 300 Discovery
Based on the old man's experience, Ji Fuyou guessed that Rainbow Sun City should also belong to the remnants of civilization.

Compared to the elderly who are insane and seemingly dead, they seal themselves away through some form of self-imposed isolation, ensuring that the civilization that should have been destroyed continues to survive.

If this speculation is true...

Perhaps they could cooperate with this civilization.

such as……

Integrating this civilization into the Red Star human civilization system would enhance the Red Star civilization's foundation and allow them to bypass the rules of the civilization trial through civilization fusion.

Of course, whether it is feasible or not can only be determined through gradual contact.

They even had to determine whether Rainbow Sun City would launch a reverse invasion of the Red Star human civilization.

If they actually do that, will the Red Star human civilization be able to resist?

All of these will need to be determined during the upcoming trip to Rainbow City.

……

Since the trip to Rainbow City had already been on my to-do list.

Previously, Ji Fuyou was worried that he would be outnumbered and vulnerable if he went alone, so he thought of bringing Yang Kaitai and others along for support.

but now……

With Gu Qing traveling with them, they can stay in Xingguang City to keep an eye on things, just in case.

After making arrangements for various matters, the two headed straight for the Misty Forest early the next morning.

After traversing for a while, Gu Qing suddenly pointed in one of the directions and said, "Since you have the ability, you can go to the Misty World on your own... Continue along this forest path, and you will pass through a long canyon. The end of the canyon is shrouded in a thick mist that is impossible to see through. Ordinary people cannot pass through it and will unknowingly circle back. But if you have this ability, you can give it a try."

"Speaking of ability..."

Ji Fuyou glanced in that direction, then turned to Gu Qing: "You should also have a similar special ability, right?"

Gu Qing hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "I possess a divine ability that goes unnoticed by others."

He paused for a moment: "You can think of it as invisibility."

"Invisible?"

Ji Fuyou's heart skipped a beat: "Illusionary Shadowless Technique?"

"No, even more thorough than that."

Gu Qing pondered for a moment, then took a few steps forward.

In just a few steps, his figure seemed to merge with the mist.

This scene instantly propelled Ji Fuyou's mental power to its peak.

Gu Qing had only taken a few steps forward, and the distance between them shouldn't have been more than ten meters, but...

Did it just vanish right in front of him like that?

His mental energy swept across the area repeatedly, even condensing it into a more accurate divine sense, focusing on observing and searching the surroundings, and finally...

One can only vaguely sense the presence of life, but this feeling is like a fleeting illusion that people sometimes experience; when one looks closely, nothing can be seen.

Vague and unpredictable.

"This concealment effect is best in the fog; once outside, less than one in ten remains. In addition, it also has its drawbacks."

At this moment, Gu Qing's voice rang out again.

His figure emerged from the mist again: "That means you can't emit mental fluctuations, you can't have any strenuous activities, and sometimes you can't even focus your gaze on the observer, because gaze is also a source of information transmission, and there are many restrictions."

Ji Fuyou shook his head.

To be able to disappear without a trace just a dozen meters away right in front of this spiritual master, leaving no trace no matter how he searched, demonstrates that with such stealth ability, other problems are no longer problems.

"If Rainbow Sun City is indeed full of danger, perhaps we can try to let Gu Qing go in and investigate first."

Ji Fuyou thought to himself.

The two continued on their way and soon arrived at the maze-like forest.

Upon entering, Gu Qing quickly realized something: "This is a natural formation."

"Do you know formations?"

"Know something."

Gu Qing said, "This formation... has achieved the most intricate arrangement with minimal cost... the formation technique is so natural that it can easily deceive people."

As he walked, he analyzed, "However... the formation seems to seek nature too deliberately, so much so that it is both made and broken by the natural world. If these natural forces that are part of the formation change even slightly, it will cause flaws in the formation..."

Upon hearing this, Ji Fuyou quickly understood what was going on.

A civilization that should have been destroyed must deceive some kind of rule in order to survive destruction.

Like this perfectly formed array before us...

Just like that old man who should have already gone mad and died...

Their survival seems to be a coincidence.

……

The two moved through the woods, and soon their view suddenly brightened.

The brilliant sunlight dispelled the fog.

The world seemed bright and clear.

We've arrived at the Day Forest.

"here……"

Gu Qing immediately discerned something: "Amazing mastery of formations."

Based on his judgment, he quickly said, "This is at least a formation set up by a Heaven-level expert."

"Heavenly level!?"

Ji Fuyou had already spoken with Gu Qing on his way here.

Although Gu Qing's inheritance does not describe the three realms of Heaven, Earth, and Man, it can be judged from the comparison of destructive power that the realm of the Martial Saint who cultivated a life force field on the Crimson Star is at the Earth level.

And it should still be considered a relatively basic stage within the prefecture-level city level.

The one who set up this formation is currently at the Heavenly Rank...

"Since there is a Heavenly-level being in this city, the Blood Moon Demon King must also be a Heavenly-level being."

Ji Fuyou pondered this in his heart.

Immediately afterward, he seemed to sense something: "There's a mutated wolf spider ahead. Based on my judgment, it should be the product of some kind of force. Take a look."

Gu Qing responded, and his spiritual power quickly spread out as well. When he used his spiritual power, Ji Fuyou could clearly see the difference in how the two used this power.

It's not that Gu Qing used much more mental energy than him.

Rather, it is his flexibility in controlling his mental power, and the way he diffuses it, which is far less than the dissipation and loss he experiences.

When this dissipation and loss are reduced to a minimum, the accuracy of the data he obtains when probing a target 1000 meters away is at least twice as high as that of others.

"The difference in levels of understanding."

Ji Fuyou understood.

The two are very different in terms of their spiritual realm.

"It was indeed born out of external forces."

As Gu Qing spoke, a stream of light shot out from his body.

In Ji Fuyou's perception, the mutated wolf spider's body was torn apart and quickly dissected.

During the dissection, faint traces of crimson energy were condensed and gradually transformed into a tiny crimson crystal.

He reached out, and the crimson crystal landed in his hand.

"This is the source of their strength."

Gu Qingdao.

Ji Fuyou probed with his mind and immediately sensed a blazing and violent energy within.

Even though it was just a mental contact, at this moment, he still felt as if the power of his blood and qi was about to be ignited and boiled, and a murderous and violent emotion was rapidly growing.

"This kind of thing..."

"It's a kind of forbidden item that can put people into a berserk state, releasing their life force for an extremely short time."

As Gu Qing spoke, he made a rough estimate and said, "The lifespan of that mutated wolf spider should not exceed one month."

a month...

Ji Fuyou nodded.

It seems that these monsters were indeed created to be used as cannon fodder.

"Speed ​​up, let's go to Rainbow Sun City."

Ji Fuyou said, "Let's see what kind of miracle this civilization has that allowed it to escape destruction and death."

Gu Qing nodded.

The two immediately increased their speed.

Compared to when Ji Fuyou first came to the Daylight Forest and was helpless against three or five mutated wolf spiders, his strength has undoubtedly improved greatly now.

Let alone three or five mutated wolf spiders, even ten or eight mutated wolf spiders would be shot dead by his dragon-patterned sword before they could even get close.

Not to mention there's a spiritual saint nearby who's even more effective at wielding a sword to kill enemies.

In this situation, the two advanced at an extremely fast pace.

Even when encountering a small army of dozens of mutated tarantulas, it doesn't take much effort to wipe them out one by one.

Under these circumstances, the two walked towards the sun, and several hours later, a majestic city suddenly appeared within the range of the Eye of the Mind's detection.

Compared to the outer areas, this region receives more sunlight, and the view is hardly obstructed by the fog.

Furthermore, Ji Fuyou raised the Eye of the Mind hundreds of meters into the air, so even from a distance of twenty kilometers, most of the city was still visible from above.

"This city is truly enormous; it probably houses over a hundred thousand people!"

"Ah."

Gu Qing responded.

He could also see that, from time to time, small teams would come to clear out the endless stream of mutated wolf spiders that were arriving from dozens of miles around the city.

A large number of defensive weapons can also be seen on the city walls.

Some of the instruments are tens of meters tall. Even though they are relatively primitive, their sheer size alone tells you that they are extraordinary.

Not to mention that there are traces of array formations inscribed in many places.

Just then, Ji Fuyou seemed to sense something and suddenly turned his gaze to a figure on the city wall.

But then, the figure conjured a visible bolt of lightning that streaked across the sky, instantly obliterating several mutated wolf spiders in an area.

"This……"

Ji Fuyou found it somewhat unbelievable.

Gu Qing, however, remained calm.

"Once one's mental strength breaks through to the 40th level, a mental force field will be formed. If this mental force field combines with multi-state divine thoughts, one can precisely control and interfere with matter through the mind, thereby creating all sorts of incredible miracles..."

He glanced at the figure on the city wall: "This one should be using this method. They specialize in bioelectricity, cultivating special structures and organs within their bodies to generate electricity. Then, through the attraction of yin and yang electrodes, they use their own bioelectricity, amplified by their mental field, to attract external lightning and then bombard their target."

After saying that, he added, "It belongs to a relatively basic application of the mental energy field."

"Base!?"

Ji Fuyou felt somewhat overturned.

This is called the basics?!
"Didn't you cultivate the Deflection Field technique? This lineage is about refining your strength to form a protective layer, which is similar to using bioelectricity to draw down external lightning in some ways."

Gu Qing explained, "Once your mental strength exceeds 40 and you master the multi-state of mental power, you can refine microscopic matter to form a surface fluid, and then enhance it with force... your defense will be very strong."

Upon hearing this, Ji Fuyou quickly realized the feasibility of this approach.

However, the mental field...

After refining the spiritual source crystal he traded with Gu Qing, his spiritual value had soared to 39.5.

40 quarters...

almost.

Just as Ji Fuyou and Gu Qing were observing Rainbow Sun City, a small team suddenly emerged from the city.

And after leaving the city...

They headed straight for the direction where Ji Fuyou and Gu Qing were.

At this moment, they were about twenty kilometers away from Rainbow Sun City, and yet...

"Discovered!?"
