Heavenly Ranking

Chapter 348 Anchoring
After the battle of the Black Gold Empire, Ji Fuyou's reputation soared.

As a result, the international standing of the Great Shang Federation has also risen accordingly, showing a subtle trend of overpowering the Griffin Republic and becoming the leader of the four powers.

Under these circumstances, Ji Fuyou invited dream masters and dream experts from all over the world to the meeting, and naturally no one dared to refuse.

Soon, planes and ships entered the Great Shang Federation and were quickly invited to arrive at Cloud Peak Mountain. At the clubhouse at the foot of Cloud Peak Mountain, they chatted with Ji Fuyou about the mysteries of dreams.

This meeting lasted for nearly a month.

A month later, although Ji Fuyou's understanding of dreams did not reach the level of those masters and experts, the breadth of his knowledge, gained through collective wisdom, surpassed that of any master or expert.

After completing this accumulation, Ji Fuyou returned to the cultivation room.

He immediately activated the power of the Great Celestial Realm and entered a deep seclusion state.

At this moment, countless thoughts surged into my mind.

My understanding of the Great Dream Sutra over the years.

The profound knowledge accumulated through exchanges with Liu Yao.

And the exchanges with many masters and experts over the past month.

As this information gathered and was sorted through in my mind, it all seemed to point to a key question.

Anchor point.

An anchor point used to distinguish between the real world and the dream world.

The previous Ji Fuyou used the concept of "observer" to anchor the imaginary boundary constant.

but……

That alone is clearly not enough.

As he becomes more and more deeply immersed in the identity of "observer," and as his entanglements deepen, one day he will completely become one of the true "observers," becoming detached from the world.

even……

He will observe the world as a true "observer," and will no longer be willing to rashly intervene in it in the slightest.

in other words……

He will become detached from the real world.

This concept is somewhat similar to the spiritual practice of merging oneself with the Tao.

But it is more thorough than merging with the Tao.

By aligning oneself with the Dao, one will at least act in accordance with the Way of Heaven, and when problems arise in any part of the system, one will take steps to correct those errors.

But once you become an observer...

He really only "observes" from the outside without getting involved in any real-world affairs.

Therefore, he must also establish an anchor point in the real world.

Use this anchor point that defines the "true world" to correspond to the observer anchor point located in the "virtual world".

Only in this way can he truly begin to perfect his own method, with the Great Dream True Scripture as its core, and create the Dharma he envisions.

"The constants in the virtual realm exist as observers, unchanging and representing constancy. The constants in the real realm are influenced by the real world, changing in countless ways, representing variables, constancy, change, permanence, and impermanence..."

Countless pieces of information and inspiration collided in Ji Fuyou's mind.

During the collision, there was even a world that kept rising and falling.

It seemed to condense from the depths of his soul and project outwards.

However, since there is no real anchor point, once it is actually projected, he himself will no longer be able to distinguish between the virtual world and the real world.

I can no longer distinguish between dreams and reality.

"So close! So close!"

The Grand Heavenly Position in the Heavenly Ranking kept flashing.

It seems that it has also gotten stuck at a critical juncture.

Or……

At this point, the power of a Great Celestial is far from sufficient.

Even if you organize the techniques, it's like a skilled cook trying to make a meal without ingredients.

The emerging cultivation technique has already shown him the way; the rest of the journey is up to him.

He has to find that anchor point on his own!

Only by finding that anchor point can the world conceived deep within the soul truly take shape and truly connect with the real world, instead of swallowing up Ji Fuyou's thoughts and cognition.

Let him forever remain trapped in his dream.

"Ding dong!"

At this moment, the vibrations coming from outside the cultivation room interrupted Ji Fuyou's secluded state.

Ji Fuyou, who was already stuck at a critical juncture, was further disturbed, and immediately became agitated.

Didn't they know he was in seclusion?
Didn't he know he was in the most crucial stage of his cultivation?

I wonder if he used the power of a Great Celestial Realm cultivator, hoping to take another step forward on his cultivation path!

At this critical juncture, even in the event of a world war, as long as nuclear bombs don't reach Tiandu City, he shouldn't be disturbed. But now...

Fortunately, he ultimately retained a degree of rationality.

Although I was restless and agitated, I still forced myself to control my emotions.

He had already instructed Fang Qiyun and the others that unless there was something extremely important, they should never interfere with his cultivation.

Fang Qiyun...

It's not that I can't distinguish between what's important and what's not.

They understood even more how precious the time they could use for seclusion in their celestial positions was.

Yet they still disturbed his cultivation at this time...

It seems something truly terrible has happened.

Ji Fuyou immediately focused his mind and quickly sensed Fang Qiyun waiting anxiously outside the cultivation room.

"what's up?"

Ji Fuyou inquired.

"Three hours ago, Sister Qingqing called to say... Ms. Yu has entered the delivery room, and ten minutes ago she sent another message... Your child is about to be born."

Fang Qiyun said quickly.

Upon hearing this, Ji Fuyou froze on the spot.

Giving birth?
Although he had anticipated this step when Yu Xiaoyu became pregnant with his child and the child's vitality grew stronger, when the day actually arrived, a strong sense of unreality still wildly assaulted Ji Fuyou's thoughts and shook his understanding.

"She's going into labor..."

Is he... going to have a child?
His bloodline will continue in this world!?
At this moment, Ji Fuyou didn't know what he was really thinking.

No matter how you look at it, he's just a time traveler.

A transmigrator who was not born and raised in this world.

If we could give him a chance to return to that world...

Well, his status, position, and strength in this world are far superior to those over there, so he definitely wouldn't be willing to give all of that up.

But if it were five years ago, if he were given a chance to go back, he would have done so without hesitation.

Or rather, if he were allowed to return to his original world with all his power, he would definitely be willing.

This shows that he truly approves of that world, not this one.

but now……

When he learned that his child was about to be born, a strong sense of unreality overwhelmed his perception, as if knocking on a mirror that separated him from the world.

When he finally snapped out of his daze from the news, the mirror...

Broken.

"Crack!"

All the sense of unreality seemed to recede like the tide.

Ji Fuyou seemed to be opening his eyes to see the world for the first time.

It's as if they've finally seen the world for what it truly is.

An invisible anchor is rapidly taking shape at an incredible speed, resonating with the illusory world that is gradually emerging from the depths of the soul.

"I……"

Ji Fuyou's eyes regained focus.

After forcing himself to come to his senses from the news, he immediately ordered, "Prepare the plane for me."

"Everything is ready... We can take off directly from the private airport at the foot of the mountain to Starlight City. We can get there in just 2 hours using the fastest method!"

Fang Qiyun immediately said.

"it is good."

Ji Fuyou immediately left the cultivation room.

“I’ll keep an eye on things here, nothing will happen. Captain, please go as soon as possible.”

Fang Qiyun handed some things that had been prepared in advance to Ji Fuyou.

Ji Fuyou took the bag and nodded.

He strode to the observation deck.

Looking down from this lawn, which spans several hundred square meters, one can clearly see the layered forests and lush greenery below.

Beyond the trees, a private airport built at the foot of the mountain came into view, and the specially made aircraft was already in operation.

Ji Fuyou leaped into the air and instantly flew down from the top of Yunding Mountain.

By utilizing both his life force field and mental force field to manipulate external airflow and microscopic elements, he resembled a hawk soaring across the ground, hurtling straight towards the airport below the mountain.

The mountain peak, hundreds of meters high, and the straight-line distance of about two thousand meters were traversed in just a dozen seconds.

As he controlled his speed, he finally landed beside the runway in a manner that caused only minor damage to the surrounding grass.

"Oh!"

Stone chips and turf were splashed.

Ji Fuyou stood up from the pit.

Shen Jun and Qin Yi, who were waiting for orders beside the plane, were somewhat shocked.

But he still rushed forward immediately: "Chairman Ji..."

"take off."

Ji Fuyou said something.

Shen Jun said no more and quickly led Ji Fuyou into the plane.

Almost as soon as he entered the plane, the cabin door closed and the plane started moving immediately.

As for trivial matters such as route applications, they have already been taken care of.

Ji Fuyou immediately called Ji Qingqing to find out what was going on.

but……

Fang Qiyun notified him a little too late.

His child was born before the plane even landed.

When Ji Fuyou finally arrived at the Sky Dome Medical Center and went to his private rest area, Ji Qingqing, Yu Ling, Yu's mother, Lu Yao, and a group of staff members were already waiting there with a small cart equipped with a temperature control device.

Inside the transparent glass dome, a wrinkled baby lies, looking like a little old man.

"Xiaoyou."

Ji Qingqing exclaimed excitedly, "Look, it's my little nephew!"

Ji Fuyou immediately stepped forward.

Medical staff quickly stepped forward and opened the glass cover, allowing Ji Fuyou to observe the little guy up close.

A newborn baby...

It has absolutely nothing to do with "cute".

And her body wasn't even fully extended; she was curled up, lying on the bed.

"Xiao You, reach out your hand, reach out your fingers to touch his hand."

Ji Qingqing said excitedly.

Upon hearing this, Ji Fuyou extended his index finger to touch the child's hand.

That is, when he reached out and touched the baby's palm, the baby's loosely clenched hand immediately clenched his fingers tightly in his palm.

Almost the instant he grasped Ji Fuyou's fingers, an indescribable feeling suddenly welled up in his heart.

In the newly formed world deep within my soul, something seemed to resonate with this scene.

At this moment, there was no longer any separation between him and the world.

“Anchor.”

He found a real-world anchor.
