Chapter 1147: Annihilation Domain Third Layer! Eva

Above the Arctic Ocean, an endless expanse of sea.

Pitch-black thunderclouds engulfed dozens of kilometers around, as if doomsday had descended.

Xu Jingming stood firm in the void, his body wreathed in terrifying black lightning.

Behind him, the Brilliant Lightning Ring rotated slowly, radiating a terrifying pressure.

Around his body, a faint aura of annihilation seemed to encircle all things.

"The Third Layer Annihilation Domain... finally achieved..."

Xu Jingming opened his eyes; within his pupils, lightning swirled, brimming with endless annihilation.

Since learning from Emaosi that the Magma Beast was about to awaken, he had raced nonstop across all oceans hunting ferocious beasts.

In just twenty-three days, he nearly exterminated every ferocious beast in the Atlantic and Indian Oceans.

Six days ago, he arrived at the Arctic Ocean.

Due to its proximity to the Arctic Circle and frigid climate, the number of ferocious beasts here was fewer than in the Atlantic.

Yet even so, in these few days, he still gained seven hundred million ability points!

In total, over these twenty-plus days, he gained 3.6 billion ability points!

Of these ability points, he spent 150 million to raise the Star Observation Method to perfection.

The rest he poured entirely into upgrading his domains.

The Lightning Domain advanced from Seventh Layer to Eighth Layer, consuming 200 million ability points.

The Annihilation Domain surged past Second Layer—and just now, he raised it to Third Layer!

These two upgrades consumed a total of 3.3 billion ability points!

"The ability points consumed to upgrade the Annihilation Domain are nearly ten times those of the Lightning Domain!"

Xu Jingming thought silently.

Of course, the power granted by the Annihilation Domain was incomparable to that of the Lightning Domain.

Ssssh—

He casually waved his right hand; a streak of pitch-black Lei Guang sliced across the sky.

In an instant, a massive ice mountain over a hundred meters tall vanished without a sound.

Even the seawater extending thousands of meters beneath it was erased, leaving not even a wisp of steam.

"So powerful..."

Emaosi and Ling Shuang stood nearby, their beautiful eyes filled with awe.

Both wore combat suits—one pale gold, one white.

Their figures, hugged tightly by the suits, were curvaceous and alluring.

Ling Shuang, at only Rank 9, felt it less acutely; she merely knew Xu Jingming's strength had surpassed her comprehension.

But Emaosi was different—being Starlight Rank 2 herself, she felt she couldn't even withstand one of his casual lightning strikes...

"Third Layer Annihilation Domain! S-class, you're insane!"

Eva's holographic projection burst from her smart bracer, her little face beaming with excitement:

"Even my elf race's top-tier bloodline, the Eclipse Elf, in its juvenile stage, isn't this monstrous!"

"How about it? Is this enough to defeat the Magma Beast?" Xu Jingming asked with a smile.

"More than enough! Absolutely enough!"

Eva nodded rapidly like a chick pecking grain, "Its manifestation fuses Fire and Earth domains, boosting domain power nearly tenfold.

Though you haven't formed a manifestation, your Third Layer Annihilation Domain alone is enough to crush it!

If you enter the cosmos and form a manifestation combining Annihilation and Lightning domains, I don't even know how strong you'll become!"

Eva's clear voice carried an unprecedented tone of awe.

The Annihilation Domain is a higher-tier domain, exceedingly hard to comprehend.

Generally, only one such prodigy emerges per ten thousand life planets.

Yet Xu Jingming achieved it—and mastered the Third Layer in barely a month!

Such talent rivals even the top human bloodlines of the cosmos.

"I'm starting to suspect you're cheating."

Emaosi strode forward with her long legs, "You haven't trained much at all—yet just by slaying ferocious beasts, your power surges nonstop."

She couldn't blame herself for such doubt.

During this time, she and Ling Shuang had followed Xu Jingming across nearly every ocean on Blue Planet.

Hunting low-rank ferocious beasts was dull and tedious for them.

Yet Xu Jingming reveled in it, slaughtering endlessly.

Even more bizarre, his strength surged like a rocket.

"Sister Aimos, I've had this thought for a long time," Hearing Ling Shuang murmured in agreement.

A smile appeared on her fair, delicate face, and with the tear mole beneath her eye, she looked even colder and more enchanting.

Xu Jingming said nothing.

The truth was exactly this—he had admitted it more than once to the girls' speculations, but they never believed him.

"S-Class! Something's wrong! The Meltfire Colossus has awakened!"

At that moment, Eva, who had received the message, suddenly changed expression and spoke up.

"Oh?"

Xu Jingming's eyes flashed with sharp light. "Where is it now?"

Compared to a month ago, when he had mastered the eighth level of the Thunder Domain and the third level of the Destruction Domain, he was far more composed.

"This is the footage I just received online."

Eva waved her small hand, and a virtual screen appeared in midair.

On the screen, a crimson-black dragon, its body rivaling a mountain range, soared through the sky.

Its entire body was covered in black scales, wreathed in flames, its vast wings blotting out the sun and sky.

Wherever it passed, the sea boiled, the clouds burned, as if the entire world trembled under its pressure!

"This is… Sakura Nation?" Hearing Ling Shuang recognized the geographical location in the footage.

"That's right."

Eva's expression was solemn. "The Meltfire Colossus must have awakened deep in the Pacific Ocean—Sakura Nation borders the Pacific.

Its first destination after awakening was there; now the entire nation has fallen, and every city is burning."

The footage switched, revealing Sakura Nation's capital, Tokyo, transformed into a sea of fire.

Skyscrapers collapsed like paper toys beneath the Meltfire Colossus's breath, millions of humans screamed in the flames.

"This beast!" Hearing Ling Shuang gritted her teeth, her beautiful eyes filled with rage.

Xu Jingming's expression was solemn; he spoke in a low voice: "Return to Xia Meng first. Prepare for the final step."

The Shen Yuan Pearl had been found half a month ago through the Void Divine Palace.

But preparing how to lure the Meltfire Colossus into it still required work.

"Understood."

Hearing Ling Shuang nodded, her jade hand flicking lightly, and a spatial gate slowly opened before the two of them.
