Chapter 1166

'Deep Blue.'

Xu Jingming silently murmured the phrase, and a pale blue virtual interface appeared in his mind:

【Name】: Xu Jingming

【Level】: Starlight Second Stage (+)

【Ability】: Chaos Divine Thunder (T9+), Ancient Primordial Azure Dragon (T9)

【Physique】: 58.433 million Qi (+)

【Spirit】: 62.862 million H (+)

【Skills】: Spear Technique (Perfected), Fist Technique (Perfected), Thunder Prison Thousand Chains (T9, Perfected), Starlight Lei Gang (T9, Perfected)......

【Body Cultivation】: Three-Transformation Divine Thunder Indestructible Body (T9, Thirteenth Layer)

【Spirit Cultivation】: Star Observation Method (T9, Tenth Layer)

【Domain】: Thunder Domain (Eighth Layer+), Destruction Domain (Third Layer+)

【Source Points】: 81.4

'The system interface has been upgraded; all skill levels have been standardized to the Starry Sky common scale.'

'Ability points have become Source Points—I originally had 4.14 billion Ability Points on my system panel.'

'Killing the Void Shadow Wolf granted me 40 Source Points, totaling 81.4 Source Points.'

'That means one Source Point equals one hundred million Ability Points.'

'Indeed, killing pure-blooded beasts yields far more Ability Points than killing fierce beasts on Blue Star.'

'On Blue Star, killing a Starlight First Stage fierce beast only gives twenty million Ability Points......'

Xu Jingming quickly clarified the conversion between Source Points and Ability Points.

Although the number of Source Points gained seemed far smaller than Ability Points,

he didn't care—as long as he could spend points, that was enough.

As long as the Deep Blue system still allowed point allocation, he had the greatest confidence!

'Eternal Gods value talent; level progression can wait.'

'But domains must be upgraded—and higher is always better.'

Thinking this, Xu Jingming no longer hesitated and directly clicked the upgrade option for the Destruction Domain.

Source Points -70!

Destruction Domain Third Layer → Destruction Domain Fourth Layer!

Boom—!!

The color of the Chaos Divine Thunder swirling around Xu Jingming instantly changed.

The already pitch-black lightning grew even deeper, appearing like a black hole that devoured all things!

'A Starlight Fifth Stage beast grants me 4 billion Ability Points—no, 40 Source Points.'

'Keep hunting—this trial should significantly raise my Destruction Domain.'

'I refuse to believe a Destruction Domain of only seventh or eighth Layer won't draw the attention of an Eternal God!'

A reckless smile curled on Xu Jingming's lips.

A flash of pitch-black thunderlight shot forward, plunging deeper into the region ahead.

According to Eva's words, at the Starlight stage, mastering an upper-tier domain was already extraordinary.

Not to mention reaching a deep level of comprehension in such a domain.

Before leaving, he had not taken the Void Shadow Wolf's corpse.

As a Starlight Fifth Stage beast, the Void Shadow Wolf's entire body was a treasure.

It wasn't that Xu Jingming didn't want to take it.

But it belonged to the Sacred Ground's property—only killable, not collectible...

'Fire Domain Twelfth Layer, Earth Domain Tenth Layer!'

'At only Starlight Second Stage, already this advanced—this Leimeng's bloodline must be rare, and his talent is impressive.'

'Though he hasn't yet formed a Dharma Form, his combat power is already astonishing.'

'Even excluding bloodline factors, this performance alone is sufficient to be rated a Level 1 Genius.'

'......'

Outside, in the VIP lounge atop the skyscraper.

The six Eternal Gods and their students focused their attention on the Jueling Clan's Leimeng, discussing among themselves, and failed to notice Xu Jingming's anomaly.

It wasn't that their attention couldn't cover all 1,078 screens—it was that they disdained to pay attention to anyone else.

The Noah Sacred Ground had ten million people, among whom one thousand were Level 1 Geniuses.

Yet among those one thousand, fewer than fifty had become their students.

This was the result of thousands, even tens of thousands of years of accumulation.

That meant, on average, only one person every fifty years across the entire Sacred Ground had even a chance to become their student.

They had come specifically for the Jueling Clan, and the probability of a superior prodigy emerging was so low that they naturally paid no heed to others' performances.

Among everyone present, only Ye Lan noticed Xu Jingming's anomaly.

When the Void Shadow Wolf appeared, she had assumed he would choose to withdraw.

But unexpectedly, Xu Jingming instantly reversed and slaughtered it outright!

'Though the Void Shadow Wolf possesses spatial concealment, it does not master the Space Domain.'

Among beast clans, the Void Shadow Wolf is merely an ordinary species.'

It relies on ambush to win; once discovered, its direct combat power is actually weak.'

But it was still a Starlight Tier 5 beast, and Xu Jingming was only Starlight Tier 2.

To be able to one-shot it means he's at least a Tier-2 genius.

'Did I misunderstand him? Is he actually not someone who got in through the back door?'

Ye Lan's heart was full of doubt, and she decided to keep watching the other's performance.

What made her even more curious was his domain — the Lightning Domain was indeed considered the most lethal among many domains.

But once his long spear came out, it even directly annihilated the Void Shadow Wolf's head, which seemed to have already exceeded the scope of the Lightning Domain.

Her intuition made her realize that Xu Jingming's domain was probably far more than just lightning......

Inside the trial zone, Xu Jingming slaughtered beasts the whole way.

Most of them were Starlight Tier 3 and Tier 4 beasts; high-tier beasts weren't numerous.

But even so, he still turned none away — after all, these were all Source Points!

Because he wanted to catch the attention of the Eternal Gods, he used the dual Lightning and Destruction domains the entire time.

Only he hadn't expected that the Eternal Gods paid him no attention at all.

Instead, it was Ye Lan who took in Xu Jingming's performance with her own eyes the whole time.

This genius girl of the Holy Land had already shifted from her initial doubt to astonishment.

Judging from Xu Jingming's performance, he had absolutely reached the standard of a Tier-1 genius!

"Looks like he's not a playboy — he's probably a prodigy from some major power."

Ye Lan let out a soft breath.

Although major powers had many playboys, they also had just as many geniuses.

Relying on family resources and their own efforts, these prodigies' performances were even far better than those of ordinary geniuses.

She had originally lumped Xu Jingming in with the playboys, but now it seemed she had misunderstood.

Yet the curiosity in her heart hadn't been resolved — she still hadn't figured out why his Lightning Domain was so overwhelmingly powerful.

Finally,

after another hour had passed.

Watching him slaughter beasts the whole way like chopping melons and vegetables, Ye Lan could no longer hold back.

She sent a spiritual voice transmission to her mentor:

'Teacher, look at projection number 534 — is there something off about this person's Lightning Domain?'

Her mentor Niki was currently lounging lazily against a soft chair.

The slender waist wrapped in her pale-gold battle dress was so slim it seemed it couldn't be grasped in one hand.

Yet at her hips it suddenly bloomed into a stunning curve, her whole person radiating the fatal charm of a mature woman like a fully ripe peach.

She was a beautiful, voluptuous young married woman.

Hearing her student's spiritual voice transmission, although puzzled, she still turned her beautiful eyes over.

When she saw the terrifying lightning rampaging on the projection, her expression instantly froze.

This is...... the Destruction Domain?
