Heavenly Ranking

Chapter 462 Yan Huang
"Third-generation miniature psychoactive potion?"

On Cloud Peak, Ji Fuyou, who was digesting the new version of Shadowless Technique, never expected to receive such a surprise.

"The negative effects have been compressed to the extreme?"

"Correct."

Chen Yunye nodded heavily: "Unlike the previous potent mental potion that only helped mental energy users break through to the level of mental saints, this mental potion is much less effective, but... as long as you don't take too much mental potion and the interval between doses is more than a month, it will hardly have much of a mental impact."

With a smile on his face, he said, "But its function is to stimulate everyone's spirit and help everyone generate spiritual power, which is much better than the secret method of refining qi into spirit, which has negative effects."

Ji Fuyou looked at the bottle of potion: "What's the cost?"

"Very low!"

Chen Yunye said, "The main material is candlelight crystal, but one candlelight crystal can produce hundreds of doses of spirit potion, so... the cost can be reduced to less than 50."

50 million!
This number is indeed very low.

but……

It can be even lower.

Ji Fuyou immediately diverted his attention to contact Fang Qiyun in the Void God Realm: "Is it possible to effectively reduce the import price of candlelight crystals?"

"Candlelight Crystal?"

Fang Qiyun, who had left a wisp of spiritual energy in the Void God Realm, sensed Ji Fuyou's inquiry and quickly replied, "Candlelight Crystals are not a product of Vermilion Bird City, but rather a specialty of a world conquered by Vermilion Bird City. Vermilion Bird City keeps a close eye on that world, and coupled with their limited population and technological capabilities, their mining capacity is restricted, which is why the price of Candlelight Crystals remains so high..."

Then she added, "Of course, it's also related to the fact that Suzaku City is intentionally slowing down the mining of candlelight crystals to ensure that they can be sold at a good price."

“Go and talk to Li Luo. We need more candlelight crystals…”

Ji Fuyou paused slightly at this point, then said, "I'll go and talk to him myself."

Red Star has a population of 10 billion!

Moreover, Akahoshi is still his base of operations.

If everyone could develop spiritual power...

The number of online users in the virtual god realm soared from 20 billion to 120 billion, and the resulting growth was far more than just a little bit.
Therefore, he decided to make the trip himself.

"I will immediately send a message to the Lord of Liluo City and instruct them to make preparations for receiving you."

Fang Qiyun agreed.

"it is good."

As Ji Fuyou spoke, his conversation with Chen Yunye continued, and he said, "I will have Leo and the others cooperate with you to maximize investment in the small-scale psychoactive drug production line. Please coordinate this as soon as possible."

"clear."

Chen Yunye nodded.

"In addition, I will grant you Level 9 access to the Void God Realm. If there is anything important, you can contact me directly without having to come all the way here."

Ji Fuyou Road.

"The effectiveness of the psychotropic drug still depends on the finished product. I just wanted Chairman Ji to confirm it."

Chen Yunye smiled.

"With the success of the life potion and the previous potent mental potion, I have 100% confidence in your research capabilities."

Ji Fuyou also laughed.

After exchanging words for a few more moments, Chen Yunye quickly left.

Watching him leave, Ji Fuyou sighed inwardly, "When chaos comes, talents emerge in great numbers, and the flame of the Red Star should never be extinguished."

Gu Qing, Chen Yunye...

He even thought of Lin Lun.

If Lin Lun hadn't gone astray, he would probably have become an outstanding figure in the future.

Moreover, just as Chen Yunye was almost buried in obscurity, who knows if there are other geniuses on Red Star that have not yet been discovered.

"It seems that, in addition to the martial arts university alone, other aspects cannot be ignored. For example, the help that Chen Yunye has brought to me and to the entire Red Star has far exceeded that of any sixth-level Martial Saint."

Ji Fuyou pondered this in his heart.

Immediately afterwards, the power of the void was activated, and it quickly "saw" the location of the Vermilion Bird Holy City in the Radiant Star World.

As the mist surged, his figure was enveloped by the power of the void, as if he had directly boarded the "Cosmos" spaceship and completed a void traverse.

Just as people don't feel like they're moving at high speed when they're in a car, this process didn't cause Ji Fuyou any major setbacks or physical harm.

……

In a courtyard of the Lord's Mansion in the Vermilion Bird Holy City.

Li Luo was already waiting in the courtyard with several key figures.

Upon seeing the mist swirling above the courtyard, everyone's eyes revealed envy.

“The power of the void.”

Li Luo sighed with emotion.

With this power, one can truly come and go freely anywhere.

A simple call from here and they're there in no time.

Unlike him, who has to travel to other worlds, spending three to five days is considered good.

In some parts of the world with poor transportation, a round trip would basically take a month.

How much cultivation time will this waste?

As Ji Fuyou stepped out of the mist, Li Luo politely cupped his hands in greeting: "President Ji."

"Lord Li."

Ji Fuyou said something.

He landed in the courtyard and, without wasting any words, went straight to the point: "Qiyun has already told you the purpose of my trip. I wonder what the City Lord thinks?"

"of course can."

Li Luo answered readily, but his expression was quite serious: "As the honorary leader of our Heaven and Earth Alliance, President Ji, we will do our best to support your desire for Candlelight Crystals. In the future, all Candlelight Crystals that are excavated will be sold to you with priority..."

"That was not what I meant."

Ji Fuyou said, "Vermilion Bird City has limited capabilities. Mining and refining, coupled with the desire for scarcity, result in a monthly output of less than 10 tons. Therefore, you should expand the scale of mining and utilize a large number of advanced instruments to improve efficiency, at least tenfold." "Expand the scale of mining, utilize advanced instruments..."

Li Luo's expression was stern.

The advanced instruments that Ji Fuyou mentioned were clearly from other civilizations, even the Red Star civilization.

This would inevitably lead them to interfere in the mining and refining of candlelight crystals.

The only thing that Shining Star and Crimson Star could offer in their deal was the Candlelight Crystal. If they were to get involved…

"President Ji, I know you have a huge demand for candlelight crystals. How about this, I will mobilize more people to mine there, purchase a batch of advanced equipment from the Myriad Spirits Realm, and invite people from the Myriad Spirits Realm to provide training, so as to ensure that the production can be increased to 10 times what you said within a year. What do you think?"

Leaving Luoyang Road.

Faced with Ji Fuyou, who possessed the strength of a tenth-level expert, he had no choice but to back down.

"One year..."

Ji Fuyou did a quick calculation.

There are only about 16 months left until the arrival of the Star-Devouring Monster.

The expansion of Zhuque City will take a year, at which point he will only have 4 months left.

In such a short time...

Too nervous.

"My minimum expectation is to achieve a 10-fold increase in production capacity within 3 months."

Ji Fuyou paused as he spoke, then added, "This is very important."

Li Luo frowned.

After a long pause, he said, "Is President Ji preparing for the second round of the Heavenly Ranking War? With President Ji's tenth-level strength, participating in the second round of the Heavenly Ranking War will be a complete breeze. What is there to worry about?"

"Your Heavenly Ranking War only has 8 months left, right?"

Ji Fuyou looked at him: "And our Red Star's Heavenly Ranking War... still has 14 months to go."

14 months!?
Although the timing of the Heavenly Ranking Wars varied among different civilizations.

but……

The Heavenly Ranking War between Zhuque City and Bailong City of Yaoxing took place at the same time.

White Dragon City is once again engaged in the Heavenly Ranking War with the Crimson Star Civilization.

What does this discrepancy in timing mean?

Li Luo's pupils contracted: "Your Heavenly Ranking War has been upgraded!?"

"That's probably true in most cases."

Ji Fuyou Road.

"hiss!"

Li Luo took a deep breath.

Jump from the second round to the third round.

The competitors in the third round of the Heavenly Ranking War are probably...

"Wait a minute, tenth-tier strength is still top-tier in the third round of the Heavenly Ranking War, right? Your opponents are at most only a few ninth-tier Heavenly Realm experts?"

"It's better to be safe than sorry; we need to be absolutely certain of what might happen."

Ji Fuyou Road.

Upon hearing this, Li Luo vaguely understood that the third round of the Heavenly Ranking War was probably just an excuse.

There must be factors he was unaware of.

Judging from the current situation, if they don't agree, Ji Fuyou probably won't give up easily. For a moment, the city lord frowned deeply...

"We have a good foundation for cooperation."

Ji Fuyou looked at the city lord and said, "That's why I hope to discuss cooperation with Vermilion Bird City, rather than the way other civilizations interact—through war and conquest. And the Candlelight Crystal is indeed very important to us, so..."

These threatening words caused Li Luo's expression to change slightly.

"President Ji, in fact, after each Heavenly Ranking War, we Yaoxing still pay tribute to the Yanhuang Holy Dynasty. In the last round of tribute, we contributed a lot of Golden Physique Source Crystals... This time, the tribute we have prepared includes Candlelight Crystals."

He responded in a deep voice.

This is a way of showing that Yaoxing also has powerful backers.

"Tribute?"

Ji Fuyou calmly said, "The Yanhuang Holy Dynasty will not care about the tribute of a civilization that has only just survived one or two rounds of the Heavenly Ranking War. Under normal circumstances, before surviving four rounds of the Heavenly Ranking War, those civilizations do not even have the qualification to be recorded by the Yanhuang Holy Dynasty."

He paused, then continued, "Furthermore, I am also very curious about the Yanhuang Holy Dynasty. Would you be so kind as to ask City Lord Li to give me a detailed introduction?"

"If Chairman Ji wants to know, I certainly don't mind describing it to you."

Seeing that the name of the Yanhuang Holy Dynasty couldn't suppress Ji Fuyou, Li Luo was not willing to back down.

"The Yanhuang Holy Dynasty is absolutely the most advanced civilization! It's not just that it survived the seventh round of the Heavenly Ranking War, it might even have survived the eighth round! And the number of vassal states under the Yanhuang Holy Dynasty is countless. Moreover, they will confer titles of Duke, Marquis, and Earl on vassal states to oversee various realms and inspect the surrounding areas. Furthermore, there are a large number of inspectors who hold the power of the void and patrol many star fields."

As he said this, he glanced at Ji Fuyou: "Behind my Vermilion Bird Holy City is the Flame Scorching Inspector, whose strength is as high as the twelfth level."

"Twelfth rank?"

Ji Fuyou's eyes lit up: "Could you contact that Yan Zhuo Inspector?"

Upon hearing this, Li Luo's expression immediately changed.

But he still said, "Of course."

"Very well, then please arrange to meet with that inspector so I can discuss things with him."

Ji Fuyou Road.

Upon hearing this, Li Luo's initial strangeness quickly turned into embarrassment.

How could they possibly be qualified to meet with a twelfth-rank inspector?
Only after each Heavenly Ranking War ends will the Inspector come to take a look and collect some offerings bestowed by the Heavenly Ranking.

They originally intended to intimidate Ji Fuyou with the title of a twelfth-rank patrol officer, but unexpectedly...

He wasn't fooled at all.
