Chapter 840: Chapter 509: The Leader’s Welcome
Ji Xinghuo shrugged, "I always keep my word. If I said I’d give it to you, then it’s yours."
"Wow, damn..." Chi Zhonglin jumped up excitedly and shouted, "I love you to death! If you were a woman, I’d want to kiss you twice right now."
"Get lost."
Ji Xinghuo kicked him playfully.
Everyone else was extremely envious. The Sky Fury Green Blood Spear was a Superpower Three Stars weapon; they had all witnessed the destructive power of this long spear. Ji Xinghuo casually gave it away.
"Second Brother, here you go."
Ji Xinghuo tossed a metallic armband to Zhong Ming. "This is the Dragon Ring. It contains everything I prepared for you."
The eyes of the others widened with astonishment.
The item with dimension space capability was at least Apocalypse One Star level.
Zhong Ming hastily caught the Dragon Ring and probed it with his mind. He froze momentarily and quickly turned his head to look at Ji Xinghuo, who just gave him a calm smile.
The Dragon Ring contained the Apocalypse One Star "Blazing Flame Gloves," Star-falling Species "Meteorite Fire Dragon Flame Body," and "Meteor Explosion," as well as multiple fire element abilities like Spiritual Energy, Flow Barrier, Blazing Beam, allowing Zhong Ming to dual-train as a Thermal Stringer.
Zhong Ming had advanced from Flame Frenzy and Flying Steps to become a Fiery Fire Flyer.
Flame Frenzy and Thermal Stringer could advance to become Flame King; the three pathways didn’t conflict. If he also dual-trains as Iron Guard and fuses "Fusion" or completes the fusion ability set, he would reach the Ultimate Profession "Child of the Star."
Additionally, there were treasures like the Heavenly Treasure Diamond, Mirage Spirit Pearl, End Dragon Eye, True Essence Injection Liquid, and two Star Tears, alongside top-grade potions produced by the Titanium Cobalt Family.
Several life-saving items for critical moments, including the Dragon King Life Token and Jump Crystal.
Finally, Ji Xinghuo prepared fifty thousand Ether Crystals.
Through electromagnetic waves, Ji Xinghuo quickly explained the uses and effects of these items to Zhong Ming’s mind.
"If you encounter unsolvable trouble in the eastern part of the Bloody Plateau, you can take this Sky Fall Order to find Han Qiu, the chieftain of the Snow Ape Tribe. He has a good relationship with me and will help you if you also pay some Ether Crystals."
After listening, Zhong Ming felt dizzy, the Dragon Ring in his hand seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, almost slipping from his grasp.
"Second Brother, don’t draw attention." Ji Xinghuo cautioned.
He would not be stingy with his brothers; all the best resources were poured in to cultivate his second brother into a Heavenly King Level Mutant, with capabilities far superior to peers. His brother’s talent was worth such an investment.
In the future, if there were enough resources, he even aimed to give his second brother a chance to ascend to Shepherd Star Saint!
Zhong Ming took a deep breath.
Chi Zhonglin curiously asked, "What’s hidden in the Dragon Ring?"
"All good stuff."
Zhong Ming calmly smiled as he put the Dragon Ring on his arm, covering it with his armor.
Ji Xinghuo then gave each person one or two Alien Species, trophies from hunting and defeating enemies, which he didn’t need. Most were excellent, with a few being Transcendent, which might suit his friends.
Regarding whether they suited or might fail to merge, he didn’t concern himself.
At that moment, a ripple appeared in the void ahead.
A few seconds later.
Qing Hong leaped out, with Jiangnan Caiyi on his back already gone. Ji Xinghuo mounted him and waved, "See you all."
Lu Yunhai approached with two War Pets and Zhao Cangming, the crowd parted, and amid their gaze, a white light swept by, disappearing in an instant.
"Xinghuo that guy is truly frightening now." Chi Zhonglin sighed.
"Indeed."
Wu Qifeng couldn’t help but recall their university days, feeling today’s experiences were like a dream.
Zhu Lige Tu asked, "Captain, where to next for us?"
"Back to Sky Falling Cliff first."
Zhong Ming didn’t hesitate, "Xinghuo gave us so much; we should convert it into strength at Sky Falling Cliff, then go out hunting. Although we lost three teammates, just the four of us is still enough."
The three agreed and headed toward Sky Falling Cliff together.
Lu Yunhai and Zhao Cangming found the scenery changed before their eyes, emerging from the void into a completely unfamiliar environment.
"Brother-in-law, where is this?"
Ji Xinghuo replied, "The eastern edge of the Bloody Plateau." As soon as the words fell, he led them into a Star Realm Jump again.
The distance covered each time was around ten thousand kilometers.
From Sky Falling Cliff to Olympia was over thirty thousand kilometers; a Fifth Level Star Realm Jump was enough to bridge the gap.
Under normal circumstances, Ji Xinghuo wouldn’t use Star Realm Jump recklessly, preferring to rely on flying or Void Shuttle, keeping jumps as contingencies. But now, returning to Earth, it didn’t matter.
Three jumps brought them outside Olympia City.
"Olympia!"
Lu Yunhai gazed at the familiar high city walls, heart filled with incomparable shock.
They had taken nearly two months to reach Sky Falling Cliff, yet Ji Xinghuo had brought them back in less than a minute.
Ji Xinghuo’s electromagnetic scans made the entire situation in Olympia clear; he hadn’t been there in over two years, the population had grown significantly, the city expanded outward, and some streets and buildings had shifted layout.
But one thing remained unchangeable, the central Star Gate.
Various countries had established military bases around Star Gate Square, and the Asia-Pacific Community occupied a quarter of the area, stationing the Star Realm Army.
Numerous Heavenly Kings and a host of Legendaries guarded it.
The current rotation for the Asia-Pacific Community was Cheng Sheng, who had successfully advanced to Heavenly King in Titanium Ring City two months ago and returned early.
Cheng Sheng was practicing martial arts in camp, his Steel Blade Dragon resting in a specially constructed Dragon Nest nearby, a group of Star Realm Army Mutants feeding it raw meat while others cleaned its scales and maintained the nest.
Ji Xinghuo accurately located and directly jumped into the military camp.
