Heavenly Ranking

Chapter 464 Kung Fu
The entire Flying Realm has almost no complete continents; instead, it consists of cities formed from large floating islands.

Moreover, the floating of these islands is not achieved through technology, but through formations.

Even the formation's power that Ji Fuyou has yet to figure out.

Through the formation, which is interconnected with the force field of the entire planet, and with the help of the power of the stars, these islands are lifted up.

To put it simply, every island is equipped with an anti-gravity device.

Just as he had learned beforehand, the entire world had been transformed by the Yanhuang Holy Dynasty into a market specifically for trading.

Furthermore, islands vary in value depending on the grade and value of the traded items.

Having little knowledge of the Flying Realm, Ji Fuyou first landed on the outermost island.

As a free trade city, Feitianjie naturally doesn't require verification such as travel permits, household registration, or identity documents everywhere.

Backed by the Yanhuang Holy Dynasty, they have enough confidence to ensure that no one dares to cause trouble in the Flying Heaven Realm.

The island is only about 100 square kilometers in size, and a small market has been built on it, selling goods that are mostly below the Heavenly Realm level.

The hard currency for these material transactions is Source Crystal.

Previously, items such as the Silver Refining Iron and the Primordial Iron, which were considered treasures by Ji Fuyou and even the entire Red Star, were readily available. Even items like the Cold Moon Crystal and the Limitless Crystal could be seen being sold openly.

Some shops that look somewhat upscale even use the Judgment Divine Iron as a treasure to guard their temples.

This scene broadened Ji Fuyou's horizons.

However, both the Silver and the Primordial Iron are significantly cheaper than the Crimson Star.

Even the Wuji Xuanjing, which is worth over 100 billion, can be easily exchanged for a single purple Physique Source Crystal.

The price has shrunk by nearly ten times.

Obviously, resources like Limitless Mystic Crystals can be traded repeatedly, but Source Crystals are something that can only be used once they're gone.

While observing the market, Ji Fuyou also kept taking stock of the people around him.

At the same time, it unfolds a virtual divine realm, enveloping the surroundings and actively collecting the spiritual information scattered by others to make up for its lack of understanding of the flying realm as a "newcomer".

As these insights were added, Ji Fuyou gained a deeper understanding of the Flying Realm.

The entire Flying Realm consists of 110 islands, which can be divided into an outer circle, an inner circle, and a core circle.

Among them, the outer circle mainly sells goods from the seventy-two islands below the Heavenly Realm.

The inner circle sells goods from thirty-six islands below the legendary realm.

The core area consists of only one island, which is the main island, where legendary-related resources are sold.

There is also another island, which is inhabited by the administrators and guardians of the Flying Realm.

The guardian, named Yan Ran, was a direct descendant of the Yanhuang Holy Dynasty and a true legend!

However, the concept of a "true" legend seemed to flash through the scattered mental fluctuations of these people several times, which made it difficult for Ji Fuyou to distinguish.

……

"The Yanhuang Holy Dynasty uses bloodline as the foundation of its rule, and people can basically be distinguished by their surnames. The highest-ranking members are the direct descendants of the royal family, who are given the surname Yan. Some princes and princes on the periphery are given the surname Yan. Below them are those with the surname Huo, who have been demoted to generals of the state, lieutenants of the state, and lieutenants of the state..."

Ji Fuyou's expression changed slightly.

Anyone who wishes to enter the management ranks of the Yanhuang Holy Dynasty must be granted the blood of the phoenix.

Before being granted the blood of the phoenix, no matter how talented one is, one can only reach the seventh rank at most.

"The entire Yanhuang Holy Dynasty appears very open-minded, but in reality, the channels for advancement are strictly blocked."

Ji Fuyou pondered in his heart.

The path to advancement is strictly blocked, and the same applies to cultivation techniques and their transmission.

Otherwise, if capable people are unable to climb to high positions, it will naturally cause dissatisfaction.

While he was pondering, he arrived at an airport, threw in a white physique source crystal, and boarded a flying boat.

Flying boats are the means of transportation in the celestial realm.

Also driven by an array, it is extremely stable and will not be disturbed even when it is eroded by the mist.

Ji Fuyou boarded a flying boat, but this time, he headed directly to the main island.

Compared to the seventy-two outer islands and the thirty-six inner islands, the main island's area directly increases to tens of thousands of square kilometers. In addition to a trading market, it also has mountains, plains, and forests that serve as scenery and residences.

Everywhere you look, every scene displays ingenuity and masterful craftsmanship.

Moreover, the cultivators wandering around the outer islands are mostly only at the fifth or sixth level of strength, with some even only at the third or fourth level, but on the main island...

Below the ninth rank, almost all are staff members of the island itself. Those who come to trade are mostly at the ninth or tenth rank. There are also those at the eleventh or twelfth rank, but they are relatively rare.

"Sure enough, everyone I met at the top universities was a top student who could get into the top universities."

Ji Fuyou thought to himself.

On the main island where legendary artifacts can be sold, you'll encounter not only legendary items, but almost all of them are related to or aspire to be legendary.

As the airship came to a stop, a woman who looked very much like a "human" and whose cultivation had reached the eighth level quickly stepped forward and said with a gentle smile, "My Lord, Xueying greets you. May I assist you in guiding us on this trip to the main island?"

"Ok?"

Ji Fuyou glanced at the woman.

According to the information he obtained in the outer circle, this was a private guide arranged by the Flying Heaven Realm for everyone who came to the main island. As for Heavenly Lord, it was an honorific title used by the Yanhuang Holy Dynasty for all cultivators above the Heavenly Realm.

However, it's astonishing that someone at the eighth level could see through his cultivation level...

He quickly realized what was going on.

On the one hand, there are no cultivators below the ninth level who come to the main island. If there are any, they are always accompanying their elders to broaden their horizons.

on the other hand……

The difference between beings at the tenth rank and those below the tenth rank in terms of skin color, temperament, and appearance is too obvious.

No matter how well a creature that has undergone physical reshaping and energy transformation disguises itself, it is no longer on the same level as a regular flesh and blood life form. A knowledgeable person can recognize it at a glance.

"Good work."

Ji Fuyou said, "I have long heard of the Flying Heaven Realm. It seems that everything is for sale, and even legendary treasures are not uncommon. With the trade fair approaching, I have come here to broaden my horizons."

"The Lord of Heaven has arrived at the perfect time. This year's annual trade fair will feature an auction of Phoenix Essence Blood! Such a treasure has not appeared for three years. Anyone who has completed the reshaping of a celestial body can refine it and ascend to the heavens in one step, achieving legendary status."

Xueying smiled and gestured with her hand.

"Completed stellar reshaping... Peak of the Celestial Realm?"

Ji Fuyou was taken aback: "If a peak Heaven Realm cultivator refines it, they can directly enter the Legendary Realm!?"

"nature."

Xueying smiled and nodded: "The reason why this trade fair is more lively than the previous three is because of the allure of this Phoenix Essence Blood. Many people have come here specifically for this item."

Ji Fuyou's expression turned slightly solemn.

legend!?
If a single dose of phoenix essence blood can instantly elevate someone to legendary status, then how many legendary powerhouses must the Yanhuang Holy Dynasty possess?!

It seems he underestimated the depth of this eight-cycle civilization.

After thinking it over carefully, he forced himself to be rational.

In theory, a civilization that has survived eight rounds of the Heavenly Ranking War needs a team of fourteenth-tier legends, or a team led by a fifteenth-tier legend!

In the eighth round of the Civilization War, this number is either a team of fifteenth-tier legendary figures or a sixteenth-tier legendary figure!

A civilization possessing a sixteenth-tier legendary status...

It's not so unbelievable that a cultivator at the twelfth level could be raised to the thirteenth level by using a treasure.

It's like a tenth-level Celestial Realm cultivator elevating a sixth-level cultivator to the seventh level.

"Besides selling some legendary items, the market on the main island is mainly used for free trade between creatures from other worlds. We provide security and only charge 30% of the fees."

Xueying led Ji Fuyou off the large flying boat, but in the blink of an eye, they boarded a small boat that was only six or seven meters long and two meters wide.

"Does Your Majesty have a specific idea of ​​what to purchase? Or perhaps I could show you around and introduce you to the unique features of the main island?"

"can."

Ji Fuyou nodded: "Let's browse the cultivation techniques section first. I'm very interested in the legendary techniques and experience points."

Upon hearing this, Xueying's eyes lit up.

Is this your first time visiting the Flying Realm and learning about the legendary magic?
This is a cultivator at the peak of the Heavenly Realm!?

Although she could tell from her eyes that the guest had begun to shape the star, she could not tell whether it was a mid-stage Heavenly Realm expert who had just begun shaping the star or a peak Heavenly Realm expert who had already completed shaping the star.

The purchasing power and desire to buy between these two groups are also completely different.

At this moment, her tone seemed even gentler and more enthusiastic: "When it comes to cultivation techniques and experiences, it should be the Star God Tower of our Yanhuang Holy Dynasty. There are not only a wide variety of legendary realm cultivation methods there, but also countless annotations on cultivation by legendary powerhouses. Each one is of great value and can greatly increase the probability of a cultivator achieving legendary status, or even improve their cultivation at the legendary stage."

There really are legendary techniques for sale?!
Ji Fuyou was secretly alarmed.

But he said calmly, "Thank you for leading the way."

He then inquired, "I wonder how many legendary techniques are stored in the Star God Tower?"

"There are three complete legendary cultivation methods, and there are 1091 methods that can be cultivated to the legendary level."

Xueying smiled and said, "Please rest assured, Heavenly Lord, we will surely find a cultivation method that will satisfy you."

so much!?

Ji Fuyou channeled the power of the Void God Realm, quickly capturing Xue Ying's dissipated spiritual fluctuations.

His expression quickly changed.

He finally understood why there were so many legendary cultivation methods.

"Starting from the fourth round of the Heavenly Ranking War, there's a high probability of being directly granted a cultivation method that leads directly to the legendary level? By the seventh round, there's even a chance of being granted a complete legendary cultivation method!?"

Ji Fuyou thought of the skill crystals they were given when they participated in the Heavenly Ranking War...

The crystal only has skills, but no matching methods. It looks like a half-finished product taken from some other method.

Therefore, before the third round, the inherited crystals were mainly for skills, but starting from the fourth round, they became complete cultivation techniques.

Right!

The rules of the Heavenly Ranking are meant to allow participating civilizations to inherit the legacy of that great being, the Light of the Universe. How could they possibly restrict their cultivation methods?
However, their civilization has experienced too few rounds of war, and his strength is far beyond what is expected, which is why he cannot obtain the legendary law.
