Heavenly Ranking

Chapter 388 Joy and Sorrow
Void Authority!

Destroy authority!

He chose the power of the void first!

With the blessing of the Void Authority, Ji Fuyou's cognitive abilities were elevated once again!
Having had previous experience, he did not hesitate to push the computing power of the Void God Realm to its limit, digesting the various changes brought about by the increase in authority while doing his best to observe the essence of the void.

Through this process of digestion and observation, Ji Fuyou not only touched the ripples of the void, but for the first time, he truly touched the power of the void!

The power of the void that creates ripples in the void!
Similarly, it is the root of all forces that can act upon the void.

Previously, he could only convey his needs through the power of the void to the great being who held power in the dark, and borrow the power of that great being to achieve the goals he needed to achieve.

but now……

He can still only invoke the power of the void through the authority of the void!

But at least he already knew how the Void Authority invoked this power!
Just like using an appliance!
With the first level of access, the device will simply be turned on and off, and used.

With the second level of access, he was already able to understand how the appliance worked.

The third level of access right now...

He practically witnessed the production and assembly of this appliance firsthand!
Although it is merely witnessing the process and does not yet possess the production equipment and materials, it has undoubtedly taken the most crucial step in taking control of the void!
In the future, as his own strength continues to improve, he will advance to the Heavenly Realm and even master the power of the mind, which will be equivalent to obtaining instruments and materials.

by that time……

He will be able to truly demonstrate the mysteries of the power of the void without relying on authority, and freely traverse the void time and time again.

After the power of the void, the power of destruction will soon follow!

However, the enhancement of the power of destruction did not allow Ji Fuyou to touch the origin of the power of destruction. Instead, it allowed him to understand the structure of matter more deeply.

The Void Authority elevated his cognitive abilities, allowing him to view the world from a macroscopic perspective, while the Destruction Authority took him directly into the microscopic world, attempting to help him understand the essence of matter.

This insight gave Ji Fuyou a completely new understanding of the relatively fixed nature of all things.

Just like a lumberjack who has been cutting down trees for decades, he only needs to glance at the tree to know how to use a better angle and more skillful force to cut it down faster.

"This ability... can be used in combat."

Ji Fuyou sensed this change.

While I'm still a ways off from fully comprehending the power of the void, the power of destruction, at its second level, can significantly boost combat strength.

Although it doesn't grant near-immortality like the power of life, it can be used as a trump card to defeat enemies in certain crucial moments.

"Two major powers... and then there's the inheritance of skills!"

Ji Fuyou's spiritual power once again touched the third option on the Heavenly Ranking.

The next moment, he seemed to see clouds and mist churning wildly in his field of vision.

Amidst the churning, chaotic mist, a terrifying giant sword, spanning tens of meters in length, cleaved through the sky and crashed down with a deafening roar.

This sword strike carried an indescribable, world-destroying power, seemingly capable of tearing apart the sky above and the earth beneath its feet with a single blow!
Create the world!
"Open the sky!"

This information flashed through Ji Fuyou's mind.

Immediately afterwards, all sorts of mysteries about this skill kept popping into his mind.

One sword opens the sky!
This is a sword technique that perfectly embodies the domineering power of sword energy and sword momentum!

Just from the fact that he dared to use "One Sword Opens the Heavens" as his name, one can see just how domineering this skill's inheritance is.

And this swordsmanship...

They place great emphasis on using their power to intimidate others!

This momentum comes not only from its own inherent strength, but also from the power of heaven and earth.

When a cultivator reaches the eighth level, they can achieve oneness with heaven and earth, drawing upon the power of heaven and earth, which will naturally form a force of heaven and earth.

Once you reach the Celestial Realm, the power of heaven and earth becomes the key to distinguishing the strength between two Celestial Realms.

"This is a Heavenly Realm sword technique!"

Ji Fuyou's words were resolute and assertive.

It can be used with difficulty at the eighth level, but only after reaching the Heavenly Realm and possessing the power to dominate heaven and earth can the Heavenly Realm Sword Technique unleash its true power.

Although its explosive power seems slightly inferior to the Blazing Sun Sword Technique at present, as Ji Fuyou achieves harmony with heaven and man and even reaches the Heavenly Realm, this sword technique will inevitably become his strongest trump card.

In particular, the sword energy it forms can eventually condense to tens or hundreds of meters, further elevating the destructive power of this sword technique to an unprecedented extreme.

"A giant sword composed of hundreds of meters of sword energy... if it were swung around the city..."

Ji Fuyou found the thought of that scene unbelievable.

After selecting his reward, he glanced one last time at the countdown that had reappeared on the Heavenly Ranking.

"951 days, 23 hours, and 43 minutes."

this number……

"Nearly 32 months?"

Ji Fuyou was somewhat surprised.

Shouldn't it be 26 months, which is more than 790 days?
how……

However, considering that the time interval might not be absolute, he didn't think too much about it.

Considering that the Mayan temple was ultimately not a safe place, Ji Fuyou did not intend to stay any longer: "After making your choice, let's leave."

Fang Qiyun nodded and said, "Many people have obtained the Golden Physique Source Crystal, but they can't actually use it. I will take back these Golden Physique Source Crystals."

After saying that, he added, "Of course, we will make compensation. This time, there are many kinds of divine weapons and artifacts among the spoils of war. Compared with the golden physique source crystals that are not useful, these divine weapons can enhance their strength more."

"Ah."

Ji Fuyou responded, not rejecting the suggestion.

Many people have enough mental fortitude and resilience, but lack the grandeur. As a result, when they come into contact with the will of that great being, they are overwhelmed by its vastness and grandeur.

However, once a cultivator breaks through to the seventh level, they will use their life force field to support the force field of heaven and earth, which is equivalent to using the power of stars to hone themselves.

This process involves constant contact and interaction with the stellar force field, leading to a completely new level of spiritual and cognitive development.

At this point, refining the golden physique source crystal will make it much easier to withstand the impact of the Great One's will.

"Let's go!"

Ji Fuyou looked at the group, who were almost finished tidying up, and said something.

At that moment, one by one, the members of the Heavenly Ranking chose to end the war, their figures quickly shrouded in mist.

Once everyone had left, Ji Fuyou, who was in charge of covering the rear, wasted no more time and also chose to leave the battlefield.

However, after leaving the battlefield, he also slightly activated a trace of the power of the void authority, quietly observing the changes in the spatial ripples.

In a short while...

He had already figured it out.

"This Mayan temple!?"

He glanced in surprise at the Mayan temple that had disappeared into the mist: "It's become a connecting area!? Soon, this temple will be projected at a suitable location within the Red Star civilization's territory. At that time, we will be able to return to this temple and use it as a transit point to travel to..."

He sensed the flow of the power of the void.

I vaguely sensed that this temple led in 94 different directions...

Those directions...

"The Civilization of the Defeated!"

Ji Fuyou understood immediately.

In this war of civilizations, 94 civilizations were eliminated!

Only 14 civilizations, including the one represented by the Great Shang Dynasty, emerged victorious and qualified to participate in the second Heavenly Ranking War in 31 months!
As my thoughts wandered, the surrounding mist gradually dissipated.

When the fog completely dissipated, what appeared before everyone was that familiar military base.

As the crowd surged forward, various suppressed voices also emerged.

"came back!"

"39 people, no one was injured... We are all back safely!"

"Thanks to Chairman Ji, if it weren't for his support throughout the process, with our lineup, we probably would only be able to get one or two people on the list, and just securing a spot in the Heavenly Ranking War would be the limit."

As everyone spoke, their gazes toward Ji Fuyou were filled with gratitude.

Ji Fuyou ignored their gazes and immediately surveyed his surroundings. Then, he turned to Song Lingxiao, Zhao Changkong, Yang Xing and Che Xuan from the Black Gold Empire and the Griffin Republic, who were rapidly approaching from afar.

"Chairman!"

"Are you back?"

"Passed."

Ji Fuyou gave a brief response, then asked, "Where are Tie Muxuan and Lin Ke?"

"them?"

The group of people who rushed over were slightly taken aback: "They're not with you!?"

"In each round of the Heavenly Ranking War, 108 civilizations will be at war on each battlefield. However, there is more than one battlefield. In other words, in this round of war, there may be 1080 civilizations undergoing life-or-death trials, or there may be 10800, or even 108000. These civilizations are grouped into units of 108..."

Ji Fuyou paused as he spoke, then added, "Our Great Shang Dynasty is not in the same group as the Griffin and Black Gold!"

Upon hearing this, Yang Xing, Che Xuan, Meng Ke, and the others' expressions changed drastically.

Not in the same group!?

Then they...

You can only rely on yourself!

The two great civilizations each only have one Tier 6 unit, and they haven't all sent out their Tier 5 units, so they can't form two teams. The rest are all Tier 4 units...

How to fight this! ?

Fang Qiyun, who was standing to the side, seemed to see the worry and fear on both sides and said, "The situation is not as bad as you think. With a sixth-level Martial Saint leading the team, we may not be unable to survive."

She quickly explained the rules of the first round of the war, as well as the strength of the other participating civilizations.

Upon learning that there were only thirty or forty civilizations possessing sixth-tier Martial Saints, less than half, Yang Xing, Lin Dun, Che Xuan, Meng Ke, and the others' worries eased slightly, but the anxiety between their brows remained.

"Whatever the outcome, they should eventually show up at this base. Let's wait and see."

Ji Fuyou said something.

Fang Qiyun and the others nodded.

Waiting here won't prevent them from processing what they've gained.

"In addition, Minister Song, please keep a close eye on the new mist that will appear in the territory of our Great Shang. Notify me immediately once it appears."

Ji Fuyou gave Song Lingxiao another instruction.

He is the Minister of the Mist Defense Department, specifically responsible for dealing with newly emerging mists and forbidden areas within the Great Shang territory.

"Understood, I'll have all departments keep a close eye on this!"

Song Lingxiao said cautiously.

Ji Fuyou nodded and headed to the nearby rest area, where he digested the changes brought about by the increase in authority while quietly awaiting the final outcome for the Black Gold and Griffin civilizations.
