137: Ranking Up! Soul Devouring Blade!

Above the Blue Star Civilization's teleportation portal, a magnificent city shimmering with starlight rose from the ground.

For a moment, everyone present stared dumbfounded at the starlit city.

What surprised Ye Ze was that activating Star Realm City actually provided 10 Hegemony Points, which was a pleasant surprise.

This would likely significantly improve Blue Star Civilization's ranking.

Beside him, Shi Qing stared blankly at Ye Ze: “How did you get this city?”

Ye Ze casually replied: “It’s a star realm tablet mission. Every civilization has a mission, and this is probably just the first one.”

“star realm tablet?” Shi Qing was shocked again. “Qing Yi and the Great Sun King also received star realm tablet missions, but they haven’t found any mission clues yet…”

“And you’ve already completed it!?”

Ye Ze nodded calmly, then silently thought:

Green Robe King, Great Sun King… two more Sixth-Tier individuals have arrived in the Star Spirit World. It seems Blue Star Civilization is investing heavily in exploring new worlds!

At the same time, the Demon Suppression Army soldiers, who were recovering from their injuries nearby, all became excited:

“With this city defense, Demon attacks won’t be a problem!”

“Exactly! At least we won’t have to worry about those Demons entering Blue Star Civilization through the teleportation portal!”

Hearing this, Ye Ze was suddenly startled:

“Those Demons can enter Blue Star Civilization through the teleportation portal?”

Shi Qing, beside him, nodded and explained: “Yes, at the very beginning, a Soul-splitting Demon walked into the teleportation portal, disappeared from the Star Spirit World, and arrived at Blue Star Civilization…”

“Fortunately, the Demon Suppression Army had sealed off the entrance at the time, and that Soul-splitting Demon happened to fall into the encirclement and was instantly killed.”

“This shows that if the Demons in the Star Spirit World are not cleared out in time, they might even invade Blue Star Civilization!”

As she spoke, Shi Qing looked at Ye Ze and smiled gently, “However, with the Star Realm City you brought, the danger is much, much smaller!”

Upon hearing this, Ye Ze thought more deeply…

Since Demons can enter Blue Star Civilization through the teleportation portal, then theoretically, alien races from other worlds, such as the Demon Race and Barbarian Race, could also enter Blue Star Civilization!

If that’s the case, the competition in the Star Spirit World would become even more intense.

At the very least, the Star Realm City at the teleportation portal must be held!

But thinking in reverse…

Ye Ze asked curiously: “So, does that mean we can also enter other civilized worlds?”

There’s no reason why alien races can enter Blue Star Civilization, but we can’t enter other planets, right?

Hearing this, Shi Qing was stunned, blinking her eyes: “Are… are you serious?”

She was still thinking about how to deal with alien invasions, but Ye Ze was already considering invading alien worlds?

Although bravery is a good thing.

He was just too brave!

Ye Ze smiled calmly: “A person must have dreams!”

Although it was still too early for their strength to enter alien worlds, at least there was a feasible path.

If he had the chance to go to the Shan Hai World in the future, he still wanted to see that identical world tree crown!

With the activation of Star Realm City, in addition to 10 Hegemony Points, there was also a buff.

【Blue Star Civilization Buff: Hegemony Points gain +30%, dangerous warning for alien civilizations!】

The Hegemony Points gain increased by a full one-third!

Its effect on ranking competition was self-evident.

But looking at this buff effect, Ye Ze couldn't help but guess:

The buff for each civilization might be different!

Otherwise, if every civilization increased by 30%, wouldn’t it be the same as no increase at all?

Immediately, Ye Ze looked at the leaderboard again:

【Star Realm Leaderboard】

【1】Demon World, Hegemony Points: 24

【2】Unknown Civilization, Hegemony Points: 20

【3】Shan Hai World, Hegemony Points: 18

【4】Blue Star Civilization, Hegemony Points: 18

【5】Barbarian Realm, Hegemony Points: 8

————

The leaderboard, which was originally full of unknown civilizations, now showed four of them.

This indicated that after exploring the corresponding races, they would also be unlocked on the leaderboard…

Now only one remained unknown.

And Blue Star Civilization’s ranking also rose from fifth to fourth, tied with third place.

Because when he previously killed Demon Race and Barbarian Race enemies, there was no extra Hegemony Points buff, otherwise he could have risen another rank.

Ye Ze also went into Star Realm City to take a look.

In addition to the city walls, the infirmary in the city could quickly restore the health and mana of professional Summoners.

The watchtowers in the city could also dispel the white mist within a certain range outside Star Realm City, expanding visibility…

Star Realm City now resembled a sanctuary for Blue Star Civilization in the Star Spirit World.

However, Ye Ze naturally didn't plan to stay here.

Shi Qing and the Demon Suppression Army were already setting up the defenses for Star Realm City.

There were also some lifestyle professionals responsible for transporting materials collected from the Star Spirit World back to Blue Star Civilization.

The materials in the Star Spirit World were extremely rich. For example, Ye Ze had previously seen one called [Star Soul Crystal Ore], which was unprecedented on Blue Star Civilization.

If brought back to Blue Star Civilization, it might even raise its technological level by a notch.

But for Ye Ze, what was more important was the ultimate Mythical-grade item in the secret realm world, and activating the second effect of the world tree crown.

Immediately, Ye Ze took out the world tree crown again.

The red light emanating from the crown was a bit more intense than before.

“Sure enough, I was going in the wrong direction before. To activate the world tree crown, I need to go the other way…”

Ye Ze looked in the opposite direction of the strange jungle.

Before setting off, he first checked his Summoner space:

Panda had already eaten all dozens of Epic and Legendary quality equipment and was comfortably lying on the ground.

Its attributes had increased by 170, breaking through the 1500 four-dimensional mark!

At the same time, there were seven high-star Legendary equipment dropped by the Equipment Destroyer!

Two of them were the same as the Demon Dragon’s Demonic Nether Set: [Demonic Nether Greaves] and [Demonic Nether Amulet].

This brought the Demon Dragon’s Demonic Nether Set to four pieces, [4/6], with its attributes increasing by over 200 points.

What surprised Ye Ze the most was a Spirit Blade:

【Soul-Devouring Spirit Blade】

Quality: Gold Legendary 8☆

Attributes: Strength +130, Agility +130, Attack effect is certain to hit.

Special Effect 1: Spirit Body Weapon, can be attached to an attack weapon for use.

Special Effect 2: Each time an enemy is defeated, devour their soul, permanently increasing damage by 3%, maximum two hundred stacks.

————

Not only was it a Legendary eight-star weapon, but it also had growth attributes.

Most importantly, it was a Spirit Body Weapon and could be used with other weapons!

Even creatures like Mantis, whose forelimbs were arm blades, could equip the Spirit Blade!

Mantis already had explosive damage, and if it could equip a Legendary 8-star weapon, its strength would increase by another tier!

Ye Ze decisively equipped it to Mantis.

The latter’s originally dark crystal-colored arm blades seemed to be covered with a layer of ethereal blue spirit.

“Excellent!”

Ye Ze was quite satisfied and immediately set off.

Seeing Ye Ze about to leave, Shi Qing immediately rushed over and said: “Do you want to take two small teams with you?”

“There are many alien races in the Star Spirit World. If you bring a team, your actions might be smoother.”

In fact, Shi Qing herself really wanted to go with Ye Ze. Ever since the Noding City operation, she realized how great it was to have a reliable Captain!

But there was nothing she could do. As a Sixth-Tier, she still needed to guard the Star Realm City at the teleportation portal to prevent Demon attacks.

Hearing the request to bring a team, Ye Ze thought for a moment and decisively refused.

As a Summoner, he alone was an entire army!

Bringing people along wouldn’t be that helpful.

Seeing Ye Ze refuse, Shi Qing smiled predictably, “Alright, I wish Captain a smooth pioneering journey.”

Ye Ze gave a wry smile and finally headed alone in the opposite direction of the jungle.

Opposite the jungle was a hilly area, particularly rich in material and ore resources.

However, Ye Ze’s goal wasn't these, so he continued forward.

But not long after he started walking, the Blue Star Civilization buff’s danger warning suddenly popped up!

“More alien races nearby?”
