Heavenly Ranking

Chapter 356: Submission
Demon-Suppressing Valley.

Ji Fuyou anticipated that, given Chi Xuan's example, the Holy Realm Clan of Zhenmo Valley would be on guard and would lay a trap on the other side. However, he did not expect them to set up such a large-scale operation.

Three commanders!

Three commanders are poised to strike!

The moment Ji Fuyou's form appeared, three rapidly spinning giant swords, wreathed in blazing flames, shot towards him like three intercontinental ballistic missiles streaking through the void, each with a staggering trail of fire.

These three swords not only contained a terrifying sword intent similar to the Limitless Sword Intent, but also seemed to have been planned for a long time, as if they had guessed that he would appear at this time, so the timing was just right.

The giant swords, arranged in a three-pronged sword formation, completely blocked all his space to dodge.

"Someone leaked my whereabouts!"

Ji Fuyou immediately realized the problem.

Fortunately, he was prepared.

Even though the three commander-level Saint Realm clansmen suddenly attacked with their swords, it could have been a fatal situation for those who had suddenly arrived at the peak of the Earth Realm.

but……

As Ji Fuyou activated the Void Authority to pass through the barrier of the Demon Suppression Valley, he simultaneously activated the Destruction Authority.

As the three commanders' three giant swords shot towards him in a three-sword formation, he simply brushed them aside with a wave of his hand.

The void before them seemed to be filled with an indescribable destructive force.

Ji Fuyou used the power of the Void God Realm to deduce that by using the power of destruction and supplementing it with the power of the void, he could treat a piece of void as an "object" and destroy it, erasing it with a wave of his hand.

Just like...

With one hand, he drew a chasm between heaven and earth.

"Buzz!"

The three giant swords that shot towards him had no chance to unleash their devastating sword intent before they were wiped out with a wave of his hand.

As if it had never existed, it vanished into thin air, disappearing from everyone's sight.

The sudden attack by the three commanders collapsed on its own.

Only at this moment did Ji Fuyou have time to see clearly the three commanders who looked somewhat like the Fengwo Guards, all focused on controlling their swords a hundred meters away.

And a dozen or so beings from the Holy Realm with various demonic forms.

As he took in the surroundings, an uncontrollable shout suddenly rang out from the mouths of the three commanders.

"Authority! It is the power of authority!"

"Destroy authority!"

"This Red Star person... has mastered the power of authority!"

"call out!"

As they were filled with shock, Ji Fuyou suddenly sprang up.

With his domineering form and unparalleled advantages, he instantly soared into the sky, traversing the vast expanse and rushing towards the edge of the group's encirclement.

"Stop him!"

"We must not let this human escape!"

"Power! The power of power! The one who wields power must be the leader of this civilization! Once we take him down, the three races of Crimson Star will be leaderless and at our mercy!"

The three commanders reacted with extreme speed.

Despite their strongest attacks being thwarted one by one by Ji Fuyou.

Even the strongest divine weapons were reduced to ashes under the power of destruction, but this did not hinder their further offensive in the slightest.

Three more flying swords slashed through the sky and shot towards Ji Fuyou.

They knew very well that the power of authority did not equate to invincibility.

Each use is followed by a "cooling-off" period.

Therefore, these three flying swords, slightly inferior to the previous ones, shot out almost immediately, aiming to intercept Ji Fuyou's body.

but……

They are spiritual saints, and so is Ji Fuyou.

As the Dragon Pattern Sword shot out, intercepting a flying sword, his Judgment Battle Blade followed suit, slashing out in quick succession.

As the blade burst forth, cleaving a flying sword, the Crescent Moon Blade Aura also struck the last flying sword.

In an instant, all the attacks from the three commanders were neutralized.

Ji Fuyou, through his masterful use of life force field and mental force field, swiftly broke out of the encirclement of the three commanders, as if flying at low altitude.

The methods displayed in that instant...

It seems that they are no less capable than these eighth-tier commanders.

"How can it be!"

Seeing the figure break through quickly and fly away, the three commanders looked on incredulously.

"The three Crimson Star races haven't experienced any Heavenly Ranking Wars yet, have they? They even obtained their ranks through the Civilization Trials in less than a year. How could such a powerful figure emerge in just one year!?"

One of the commanders even showed a hint of fear in his eyes. The civilization to which Ji Fuyou belonged had grown to this extent in just one year, and the strength it displayed had already shocked the three commanders.

If we let them continue to grow...

In a year or two, he might even reach the pinnacle of the Heavenly Realm!
Given what the Demon Suppression Valley has done to the Crimson Star Clan, if a Celestial Realm expert were to be born among the Crimson Star Clan...

The entire Holy Realm civilization will face the risk of destruction.

"Damn it, chase after him! Send a message to all commanders and captains: launch a full-scale attack and kill him at all costs."

"A commander growled."

"A full-scale attack?"

Another commander, however, revealed a hint of fear in his eyes: "If we launch a full-scale attack... it might arouse the suspicion of the Black Heaven Demon Lord. Once he realizes that our Holy Realm civilization is surviving right under his nose, the consequences... will be unimaginable!"

“Chi Yao, I know you want to avenge Chi Xuan, but… this Chi Xingren may bring a huge crisis to our Holy Realm civilization in a year or two. If we are exposed to the Black Heaven Demon Lord’s sight, what awaits us is immediate destruction.”

The third commander also opposed the idea.

"The Dark Demon Lord!"

A hint of fear flashed in the eyes of the commander known as Crimson Radiance.

This demon lord is the culprit who destroyed the entire Holy Realm civilization.

Even at the height of its power, the Holy Realm civilization could not defeat this monster, let alone now, when its strength has dwindled to only one-tenth or one-twelfth of its former glory.

The Holy Realm civilization mobilized all its forces, which truly attracted the attention of the Black Heaven Demon Lord. None of them will have any chance of survival.

Under the intimidation of this demon lord's reputation, Chi Yao regained some composure: "Just now, even with the three of us joining forces and ready to strike, we still couldn't stop him. If we can't mobilize all our strength to search for and surround him, how can we possibly deal with him?"

The other two commanders exchanged a glance and said, "Let's report to the Great Sage first."

"The Great Sage? You wouldn't be asking the Great Sage for help, would you?"

Chi Yao frowned: "Once the Great Sage makes a move, the likelihood of the Black Heaven Demon Lord realizing we're here will increase dramatically, and then..."

“Our strategy was wrong from the start. Red Star is not as weak as we imagined. Or rather, the Red Star people who first came into contact with us deceived us. They were not the true leaders of the Red Star civilization. As a result, we mistakenly believed that they represented the highest level of Red Star, which led to our wrong judgment.”

One of the commanders said in a deep voice, "Right now, this Red Star person..."

He paused for a moment, then said, "This Red Star person named Ji Fuyou has demonstrated his worth through his strength. I think... our Demon Suppression Valley could cooperate with them."

Clearly, they had learned a lot about Red Star from other people, including Ji Fuyou's name and origin.

"cooperate!?"

Chi Yao's face darkened, and his eyes flashed with anger: "Greedy Wolf, he killed our Holy Realm people, and instead of seeking revenge, you want to cooperate with him? Is this surrender?! Must our Holy Realm civilization suffer such humiliation?!"

"Times have changed."

Another commander sighed: "Our Holy Realm is no longer what it used to be. The slightest disturbance could cause our Holy Realm civilization to be truly annihilated in the long river of history... Compared to the continuation of civilization, what do personal honor and disgrace matter?"

"Tianfu is right."

Commander Tanlang said, "In the face of the survival of civilization, all grudges must give way. The three Crimson Star races... at least, the leader of this season's floating world has shown enough strength and even more amazing potential. With our methods, we can't do anything to him. Since we can't do anything to him or control him, we can only cooperate."

He looked at Chi Yao and said, "Given their growth rate, they may be able to produce Heavenly Realm experts after the second round of the Heavenly Ranking War. If they do produce Heavenly Realm experts and are willing to help us fight against the Black Heaven Demon Lord, then the greatest crisis facing our Holy Realm civilization will be solved."

"But what will be the price?"

Chi Yao sneered: "Could the Holy Realm civilization of that time still be called the Holy Realm civilization?"

"It's not necessarily a bad thing to be integrated into the Red Star civilization as a minority group. At least... we survived, and we no longer have to live in fear. I think most of our people would make this choice."

The Heavenly Axe Commander said.

Seeing that Chi Yao was about to speak again, Tan Lang said, "Alright, let's go see the Great Sage and ask him to make the final decision."

The three commanders parted on bad terms.

Unfortunately, the three commanders had a very good idea.

When they had the upper hand, they resorted to all sorts of schemes and tricks, intending to use the three races of the Red Star as a spillover of karma.

Given the current unfavorable situation, they sought peace and began cooperating with Ji Fuyou's side.

There is clearly no such thing as a free lunch in this world.

After breaking through the encirclement of the three commanders, Ji Fuyou did not go far away, but instead quietly waited for the power of destruction to be restored.

When his authority was restored, he returned and headed straight for the entrance.

At this time, the three commanders who had been gathered here had dispersed, but there were still quite a few seventh-tier figures present.

Upon seeing Ji Fuyou return, the leader of the Holy Realm race, who had transformed himself into an orc warrior, immediately stepped forward: "Mr. Ji, the conflict just now was merely a misunderstanding. We, the Holy Realm race, are actually eager to cooperate with you..."

"call out!"

What awaited him was the burst of light from the dragon-patterned sword.

However, although this member of the Holy Realm was only in the form of an orc warrior, the combat skills he displayed far surpassed those of an orc warrior.

They accurately tracked the trajectory of the dragon-patterned sword that was hurtling towards them, and with a swing of their battle axes, they managed to deflect it.

However, before he could speak again after being separated from the flying sword, a dazzling burst of flames quickly illuminated his vision.
