Heavenly Ranking

Chapter 536 Like a Mirror
These fifth-tier monsters carry four great powers: destruction, soul, time, and life.

Among them, Ji Fuyou is most familiar with the destruction of the authority.

Secondly, there is the power of time.

Because the two laws of void and time are closely related, he also has some or two levels of mastery over the power of time.

But the authority over life and the authority over the soul are areas that Ji Fuyou has never touched before.

Currently, through the battles with these fifth-tier demons, information about these two powers is being rapidly collected by the Void God Realm.

Soon, he had already entered the gate of this power of soul authority.

"The authority of the soul, the ability to uncover the essence of the mind, allows one to see their true self more clearly... This authority..."

After Ji Fuyou entered the realm of soul authority, he quickly realized the extraordinary nature of this authority.

This……

It is actually a power of authority that directly targets the spiritual realm.

Furthermore, if one continues to study along this path of authority, upon surpassing the ninefold limit of authority, one will be able to access a power known as the "True Spirit."

Because Ji Fuyou's spiritual realm was high enough, when he touched the soul authority, he felt that his already perfect realm was being touched again.

A completely new world seems to be about to unfold before our eyes...

"My heart is like a mirror, reflecting all the heavens..."

This kind of power...

It is the ultimate state of perfection!

A light seemed to flicker in Ji Fuyou's eyes.

Since he comprehended the realm of perfection, he has remained at the threshold of that realm, unable to advance even an inch further.

Because no one can teach him.

He had no idea where the road ahead led.

but now……

When he touched the authority of the soul, he glimpsed the next direction of cultivation for the Perfect Realm through the essence of this authority.

My heart is like a mirror, reflecting all the heavens.

He can use his perception as a mirror to clearly see any subtle changes, and thus understand them thoroughly and control them perfectly.

If he can truly achieve this, then in the future, no means within his understanding will be able to harm him.

"This is truly the pinnacle!"

Ji Fuyou was contemplating the profound mysteries of the soul's authority.

Under the power of the illusory divine realm, the soul authority advanced towards the second and third levels at an extremely rapid pace.

The more we understand the authority of the soul, the clearer the direction becomes regarding the power of the mind.

"The pinnacle of skill! Upon reaching this level... cultivators will no longer be defeated by any skill-based methods! Apart from overwhelming them with absolute power, they are invincible among those of the same realm! And... absolutely invincible!"

As long as the forces are on the same level, defeat is impossible!

"The first, second, and third levels of Soul Authority primarily focus on absolute control over the power of the mind. There isn't much information about my 'Mirror of the Mind' aspect..."

As Ji Fuyou pondered, more power from the Void God Realm was poured into the Soul Authority.

Soon, the power of authority had actually broken through to the fourth level.

In just a few dozen breaths of exchange, the soul authority rose from nothing to four levels in a row, a speed that was simply unprecedented.

But at this moment, Ji Fuyou no longer cared about creating miracles.

His mind was focused on the changes brought about by the fourth layer of soul authority.

"The fourth layer of soul authority, through the exploration of mental power, truly points to the closed loop of the mind, making the cultivator's mental state more perfect, until they comprehend the perfect realm..."

Ji Fuyou constantly reflects and analyzes.

The fourth to sixth levels of Soul Authority can indeed, to some extent, uncover the mysteries of the Perfect Realm, and Ji Fuyou, who has already mastered the Perfect Realm…

In reality, it was equivalent to obtaining proof of the sixth level of soul authority through his own enlightenment.

"The fourth to sixth levels of the Soul Authority represent the closed loop of the mind and the realm of perfection; the seventh to ninth levels... are my heart like a mirror, reflecting all the heavens..."

Ji Fuyou observed the big picture from the small.

It's as if one can directly "see" the source of this power through the authority of the soul.

A sort of……

The essence of authority that even the Soul Guardians cannot grasp!
At this moment, he even thought of using his soul authority to touch the soul guardian, so that it could manifest the power of the seventh level of soul authority and point him in the direction of cultivation.

Once he could glimpse the power of the seventh level of Soul Authority, he believed that with the auxiliary effect of the power of the Void God Realm, he, who had already comprehended the perfect realm, would surely be able to push his soul power to an unprecedented seventh level.

and……

Since he had gradually come to understand the power of the soul, even the guardian who held the power over the soul could not take this power away from him.

Just as Ji Fuyou was yearning for the power of the seventh level of Soul Authority, the purity and flawlessness brought by the Perfect Realm suddenly made him realize something.

"No, I cannot completely rely on the authority of the soul. The soul is an extremely private matter. Every life's soul is unique. Their cognition, thoughts, and consciousness constitute the foundation of the soul. If one completely follows the insights of others' souls to climb upwards, one will never be able to awaken the true spirit in this lifetime..."

He felt a chill in his heart.

Using the authority of the soul to elevate one's spiritual realm to its peak is an unorthodox and heretical approach.

The supernatural powers of the seventh and ninth levels of soul authority can only serve as a reference at best. If he were to try to completely imitate them, he would be jeopardizing his own future.

Ji Fuyou exhaled, forcibly shifting his attention to the power of life.

The right to life, the search for the meaning of life...

In its initial stages, this power merely allows for the circulation of life, ensuring immortality.

However, as one delves deeper into this authority, it points to a power akin to "belief"!

With the power of this "belief", no matter what kind of desperate situation a living organism is in, it can be given unprecedented hope and vitality, thus allowing itself to climb out of the abyss and the dead end.

"Always singing as we set sail, never giving up and never losing... Are you on a pep talk?"

Ji Fuyou was comprehending the power of life, and this power...

"Hmm? This seems to contradict the 'transcending the three realms and being outside the five elements' concept brought about by the concept of lying flat with the power of nothingness?"

He was a little surprised.

Immediately afterwards, he quickly checked the source of the life authority.

Even its origin is estimated to be only seven or eight layers deep.

but……

Compared to the state where the source of ethereal authority is only in the fourth or fifth level, the life authority is already much better.

Clearly, even a great being as powerful as the Star God and the Cosmic Light cannot be omniscient and omnipotent.

"Of the nine powers, only the Void, Destruction, and Soul have a complete nine-fold structure. The remaining six powers have seven or eight folds, while the lower ones, such as the powers of Nothingness and Luck, only have four or five folds."

Although it was a lower level, Ji Fuyou did not look down on it.

At that moment, he drew upon the power of the void, clasped his hands together, and the void between him and the four demons began to close at an extremely rapid speed.

He transformed himself into a lock, sealing the void, and similarly, he also locked all these demons in this void, suppressing them all.

He couldn't bear to kill such a demon that could provide him with a wealth of information about authority.

After suppressing the four legendary fifth-tier demons, Ji Fuyou mobilized the power of the Void God Realm to quickly analyze the mysteries of the authority they possessed, while turning his attention to the battlefields of several top forces.

Although there are quite a few fourth-tier monsters on this battlefield, the top forces had already predicted this great battle when they formed the Star River Alliance and made full preparations in advance.

As the great battle began, legendary figures from various factions rushed to provide support.

Especially in the later stages, these civilizations revealed all their trump cards one by one.

Legendary fifth-tier divine beasts, such as the Primordial True Dragon, the Primordial Phoenix, and the Primordial Qilin, which were elevated by the power of all living beings, joined the battlefield.

These fifth-tier divine beasts might not be a match for fifth-tier demons who possess at least the authority of the fourth level of heaven, but when it comes to bullying fourth-tier demons, their efficiency is astonishing.

A great battle lasted for three days and three nights, and the starry sky outside the Flying Heaven Realm seemed to be shattered.

Countless legendary monsters have been torn to pieces.

A considerable number of League of Legends have also perished in the cosmos.

Overall, the alliance ultimately emerged victorious.

In particular, the deaths of a large number of legendary monsters have produced valuable materials. Some of their essences can be extracted and further refined to create a large number of legendary treasures, nurture new legends, and allow those first-tier legends who need to rely on external objects to advance to the second or third tier.

Once these gains are absorbed, the alliance's strength will not only not weaken, but will become even stronger.

After clearing out the invading demons, the people from the top forces also arrived at the void that Ji Fuyou had locked.

Although they already knew that Ji Fuyou was incredibly strong, seeing him suppress four fifth-tier legendary demons single-handedly still astonished Yan Huang, Qinglong, Yinglong, Yinglin, and other fourth-tier legendary demons.

"That's definitely the strength of a sixth-tier legendary! How could someone other than a sixth-tier legendary do this!"

"With a sixth-tier legendary figure in our alliance, we can truly rest easy now!"

Amidst everyone's astonishment, Yan Huang stepped forward and cupped his hands, saying, "Star Lord Ji, why don't you release a fifth-tier demonic creature first, so we can deal with it and relieve some of the pressure on you?"

"Relieve stress?"

Ji Fuyou glanced at Yan Huang.

He appreciated the sentiment of this fourth-tier legendary figure from the Yanhuang Holy Dynasty speaking at this time, but as for releasing a fifth-tier demon...

"No need, I can handle it."

Ji Fuyou calmly said, "Go and clean up the battlefield as soon as possible; there will be another attack."

"One more round!?"

The legendary figures Yanhuang, Yinglong, and Yinglin immediately changed their expressions.

"Okay, you guys take a look and let me know when you're ready."

Ji Fuyou responded calmly.

These words slightly startled the several legendary figures, whose expressions were grim and as if facing a formidable enemy.

Qinglong was momentarily confused: "Alliance Leader Ji, what does 'be prepared' mean? Let me explain."

Yan Huang, standing to the side, narrowed his eyes: "Could it be... Alliance Leader Ji, you..."

"Just four fifth-tier legendary monsters, this is nothing."

Ji Fuyou's gaze seemed to pierce through the starry sky, looking towards a deeper dimension: "I need to provoke them a bit, to get them to send some more fifth-tier demons... quite a lot more, at least... we need to gather all nine powers."
