Heavenly Ranking

Chapter 496 Clues
"This location..."

As the teleportation for the Heavenly Ranking War began, Ji Fuyou had already detected the void power emanating from the resonance between the Heavenly Ranking and the Void Authority, and through this void power, he quickly pinpointed the direction of their teleportation.

This kind of transmission...

Traveling through worlds with him seems to be no different from doing so.

The only difference is that this time, one world has been chosen as the battlefield.

Furthermore, it appears to be a battlefield that was specifically created for this purpose.

Like now, they found themselves in a cave.

Do not!
It's not a cave!

The moment Ji Fuyou appeared in this area, his powerful perception as a legend quickly spread out, easily covering an area of ​​over two thousand kilometers.

As he was enveloped in this area, he was shocked to discover that their entire world seemed to be located within a series of caves.

The world extends beyond the cave.

"Subterranean civilization?"

Ji Fuyou pondered this in his heart.

His mind also turned to the Heavenly Ranking.

The rules remain the same: slay monsters and earn points!
Killing a participant grants you all the points accumulated on that participant.

The top 108 people on the leaderboard have been awarded new Heavenly Ranks!
The heavenly positions of the others were stripped away.

If no one in the civilization possesses a rank, the trial is considered a failure!
Besides the requirement that 108 people survive to end the war, the second criterion is...

"Lava Giant Spider?"

His senses raced, and soon, one mutated spider after another appeared in his field of vision.

These spiders...

They are quite similar to the spiders in Blood Moon Canyon, but upon closer inspection, it can be distinguished that these spiders are not of the same species as the artificially created spiders in Blood Moon Canyon.

And the spider's strength...

"The sixth to seventh tiers are considered elite, the eighth tier is even more so, and there are a few ninth tiers... Based on this, the Lava Giant Spider should be a tenth tier."

Ji Fuyou quickly analyzed these monsters.

However, while analyzing these spider-like monsters, he vaguely sensed a sense of familiarity.

"Blood Moon Canyon, Lava Giant Spider"

His thoughts wandered, recalling the Titan Spider King in his dream who followed the Winged Dragonman... who was also the Demon Dragon Lord.

Since the Blood Moon Demon King died at Gu Qing's hands, he never saw the Blood Moon Demon King's true form. However, the spiders of Blood Moon Canyon, the spiders of this underground civilization, and the spiders of the underground palace where the Titan Spider King lived gradually formed a line.

"I originally thought that the Snowfield Civilization was behind the Blood Moon Demon King, after all, the Snowfield Yetis came to Rainbow Sun City to find this Demon King time and time again. Now it seems that I was obviously wrong. The civilization characteristics and landform characteristics of the Snowfield and the Blood Moon Canyon are different by far."

He observed the other spiders in this underground civilization...

"The true backer of the Blood Moon Demon King should be the Titan Spider King in my dream. The Snowfield sent those Yetis not to find the Blood Moon Demon King, but the Titan Spider King behind them. The Snowfield Yetis clearly regard the Eternal Day Secret Realm where the Blood Moon Demon King and Rainbow Sun City are located as the location of the Titan Spider King's civilization, which is why they have sent people to investigate time and time again..."

Having reached this point, Ji Fuyou finally cleared up his thoughts completely.

It seems he needs to go and thoroughly investigate Blood Moon Canyon.

As expected, he should be able to find the coordinates of the civilization where the Titan Spider King resides from there, and then...

Let's deal with this powerful monster that will soon be invading.

"Hmm? Judging by the timeline, it should be about ten days to half a month before we face the Titan Spider King. Even if I don't confront the Titan Spider King, due to the karmic entanglements, he will still invade the Eternal Day Secret Realm as if seeking revenge for the Blood Moon Demon King, and then use the Eternal Day Secret Realm to invade the Misty Forest and Crimson Star..."

Thinking this through, Ji Fuyou couldn't help but chuckle.

coincide!

The future continues to unfold according to predetermined coincidences!

Titan Spider King, Titan Fire Dragon a month or two later, then Ice Troll, and then...

The Star-Devouring Monster.

"Ah."

Ji Fuyou pulled his thoughts away from the Titan Spider King and other monsters.

These monsters were of no concern to him, a legendary second-tier being.

The only thing he really needed to pay attention to was that star-devouring monster.

As he pondered this, his vast sensory range also reached out to the participating teams in the Heavenly Ranking War.

The strength of these teams also varies greatly.

Some teams consist of players of different ranks (6th, 7th, and 8th), while others are led by players of rank 9 Heavenly Realm.

Ji Fuyou sensed a small team only 300 kilometers away from them. He used the power of the Void God Realm to cover the area and quickly obtained a definite message.

"As expected, they skipped to the third round."

There were no unexpected issues.

It was neither an easy second round nor an unprecedented fourth round.

This round of the Heavenly Rankings battle...

"Tenth tier... finally found them, wow, there are quite a few."

Ji Fuyou's senses lingered on the small team for a moment. But he quickly suppressed the thought.

It's just that one of its civilizations is somewhat special.

Apart from this civilization, all other civilizations only have the Ninth-Order Celestial Realm as their facade.

The difference is just a matter of degree.

At that moment, Ji Fuyou contacted Fang Qiyun.

At the same time, a message is transmitted: "This is the location of our people, monsters, and other participating teams."

Sensing this information, Fang Qiyun was slightly taken aback: "Captain, this..."

"Don't share this with others. This information is mainly to keep you informed so you can be mindful of your surroundings and prevent any contestant from falling into the other's trap and getting into trouble."

Ji Fuyou offered an explanation.

If you're already at level ten, and you get more information support, it's like having a full map cheat. What's the point of this practice battle then?
"clear."

"In addition, the Heavenly Ranking War will end if either of the two criteria is met, leaving only 108 participants. The first criterion is difficult to achieve and will take at least three to five days to see the result, but the other one is different."

Ji Fuyou said, "To ensure that no force tries to steal the Lava Giant Spider, have Xiaoxue or Yang Kaitai take a few people over to guard that monster."

"give it to me."

Fang Qiyun nodded solemnly: "I will lead them safely to complete the Heavenly Ranking War."

As she spoke, she added, "I plan to try to make contact with those civilizations that have potential. These civilizations, which have made it to the third round of the Heavenly Ranking War, must have the coordinates of several, a dozen, or even dozens of worlds in their hands. If we can make contact with them, it should be of great help in promoting the Void God Realm."

"Okay, you can decide what to do."

Ji Fuyou responded.

Although he wouldn't act as a babysitter for these people, he would sometimes take a look around to ensure that the chances of an accident were minimized.

After explaining these trivial matters to Fang Qiyun, Ji Fuyou finally refocused his attention on the power of the void.

He wanted to see if he could leave this area by relying on his mastery of the power of the void.

After observing it carefully, he realized the characteristics of this world.

"The void has been sealed off."

He sensed the flow of void in this area.

The power of the void can still be used within the world, but if one wants to leave this world or enter from the outside, this sealing power will block and interfere with it.

And this kind of obstruction and interference...

It was extremely ingenious, seemingly involving the application of the fifth or even sixth level of the power of the void.

This mysterious change in the void immediately attracted Ji Fuyou's attention.

He quickly recorded these characteristics of the blockade and mobilized the power of the Void God Realm to deduce and analyze them.

……

In an area that slightly caught the attention of the out-of-season floaters, a group of twenty-three people were also enveloped in mist and manifested.

Compared to the caution and prudence of the other participants, these twenty-three people all appeared extremely relaxed.

"The rules of the Heavenly Ranking War remain unchanged."

Among the twenty-three people, a handsome man who looked to be only in his early twenties spoke up calmly.

"Sect Master, what do you think? Should we go find that giant lava spider first, wait there until the other competitors have dealt with most of the monsters, and then wipe them out in one fell swoop to get all the points, or should we start the hunting game now?"

A person next to him asked.

"Of course we'll wait. Based on our experience from the previous two times, the more points we have, the higher the reward. This time... it would be best to catch all the monsters and points in one fell swoop."

Another young woman responded.

"Elder Taiyin is right. This time, I'd like to know what level of points a person would ultimately receive if almost all the points were concentrated on one person."

As the sect leader spoke, he said to the man who had spoken first, "Taiyi, take some men and select a few lucky civilizations to gather at least a hundred people, so that the war will not end prematurely because the number of people drops to only 108."

The man known as Taiyi nodded: "These civilizations were indeed very lucky to survive to the end."

“Well, let’s go to the center of the cave first and keep an eye on the lava giant spider. That way, when this war ends will be entirely up to our Celestial Phenomenon Sect.”

The sect leader responded calmly.

"A bunch of pathetic fellows. Now, let the other 107 civilizations in this Heavenly Ranking War tremble with the power of our Celestial Phenomenon Sect."

Elder Taiyi's tone revealed an unprecedented level of confidence.

but……

They clearly have reason to be confident.

There were not only as many as twenty-three contestants, but four of them were surrounded by starlight.

what does that mean!?

This means that all four of them are, without exception, tenth-level powerhouses!
The remaining nineteen people, although they did not display any extraordinary star-like abilities, all possessed the ability to levitate as they began to move.

Soaring into the air—this is the symbol of the Celestial Realm!
It is evident that the remaining nineteen people, without exception, possessed the combat power of the ninth-tier Heavenly Realm!

With such a powerful force appearing in the third round of the Heavenly Ranking War, isn't it only natural that they are so confident that they can sweep across the entire map?

The group explored the path, eliminating numerous spider monsters along the way, and arrived at the cave where the guardian monster, the Lava Giant Spider, was located in just one or two hours.
