Chapter 1694: Xuan Tong God! Find Royce to Test Strength!

"What potent medicinal power!"

Xu Jingming did not dare to be careless.

He guided the medicinal power with all his might to batter the barrier of the sixth tier of Eternal Life!

Hum——!!!

Inside the cavern, Lei Guang blazed brilliantly!

The divine body was visibly strengthening and transforming.

"Worthy of an SSS1-grade exotic flower and herb..."

Xu Jingming secretly praised in his heart, throwing himself wholeheartedly into the breakthrough.

Time slipped away, second by second.

Inside the cavern,

gold-green Lei Guang and purple starlight wove and flickered together, bathing the entire space in a dreamlike, illusory glow.

The aura around Xu Jingming climbed steadily, growing more and more terrifying.

Vera watched from the side, clicking her tongue in wonder:

"This breakthrough commotion is far greater than an ordinary Eternal Life tier breakthrough.

This guy is simply a monster!"

Finally, three days later.

Boom——!!!

A pressure several times stronger than before erupted from within Xu Jingming's body!

The cavern walls cracked inch by inch, and the void itself was shaken into countless fine, dense fissures.

"Sixth tier of Eternal Life achieved!"

Xu Jingming slowly opened his eyes; in his pupils it seemed as if the starry river reversed and lightning arose and perished.

He felt the surging divine power within him, and the corner of his mouth curved into a smile.

The system panel automatically appeared in his mind:

【Level】: Sixth Tier of Eternal Life

【Divine Power】: 5961 points

【Divine Sense】: 5323 strands

"Divine Power and Divine Sense each increased by 1500 points..."

A sharp light flared violently in Xu Jingming's eyes.

"Now, based on my basic attributes alone, I am enough to crush the vast majority of titled Eternal Life powerhouses."

"If I also activate the Purple Nightmare Demonic Body, I should be able to reach the level of an Extreme Eternal Life tier."

Fighting intent rose in Xu Jingming's eyes.

If he added the Chaos Pearl, he could even briefly possess the strength of an Invincible Eternal Life tier!

It was just a pity that his divine power level was still only at the sixth tier of Eternal Life.

He could not reproduce even one ten-thousandth of the might of the Chaos Pearl, this peak supreme treasure, nor use it for long.

Otherwise, his strength could have been even greater.

"The power-up is over. Next, it's time to find an opponent to test myself against."

Xu Jingming's mind stirred, and he split off a wisp of consciousness to enter the Virtual Universe.

Light and shadow flowed, and he appeared against the backdrop of a vast sea of stars.

He quickly brought up his contacts list.

He found a name tagged 'Xuan Tong' and sent a communication request.

Almost instantly, the request was accepted.

Starlight gathered ahead, outlining a tall, graceful figure.

It was a woman, her figure slender, nearly one meter eighty tall.

She wore a moon-white flowing-cloud long gown, its hem adorned with fine, scattered star patterns.

Her beauty was breathtaking, her skin fair as cold jade, and the most striking feature was her eyes.

Her pupils were an unusual silver-gray, with what seemed to be a starry river swirling deep within.

Clear and crystalline, yet so profound they could reflect a person's heart.

Just being gazed at calmly by her gave the illusion that no secret could remain hidden.

Xuan Tong God!

A titled Eternal Life tier powerhouse of the Star Pupil Tribe, a subsidiary race of humanity.

Famous for her one-of-a-kind Xuan Tong talent.

Those eyes possessed an ability similar to Blue Star's Aimes's 'Eye of Destiny'.

Able to track traces, it was second to none in intelligence gathering.

Xu Jingming had met her two months earlier during a search for equipment.

He had casually added her contact information.

"Su Chen?"

Xuan Tong God's red lips parted slightly, her voice ethereal and pleasant, tinged with a hint of curiosity. "What business do you have with me?"

She sized up Xu Jingming, a trace of curiosity flashing through her silver-gray pupils.

This self-proclaimed Su Chen, a peak Eternal Life of humanity.

Had appeared out of thin air, his strength absurdly powerful.

Two months ago, in a shattered belt of stellar remains.

She had personally witnessed the other party, with raging gold-green Lei Ting, single-handedly crush the encirclement of two titled Immortals of the demon race.

Snatching away a fragment of a heavy treasure about to be born.

Their strength had absolutely reached the titled Immortal level, possibly even stronger.

That effortless, crushing dominance had absolutely reached the titled Immortal level.

Possibly even stronger.

But she basically knew every titled Immortal of the human race by reputation, and had never heard of any figure named Su Chen.

"Xuantong God, I need you to help me find someone's location." Xu Jingming got straight to the point.

"Oh?"

Starlight swirled within Xuantong God's silver pupils, her interest deepening: "Who?"

Anyone specifically sought out by such a mysterious powerhouse would absolutely not be an ordinary figure.

"Royce." Xu Jingming uttered three words.

Royce!

The level of an invincible Immortal.

Now that he himself had broken through to Immortal rank six, he could naturally find him to test his own strength.

And within Xuantong God's eyes, the flow of the star river paused for an instant, a flicker of surprise passing through:

"Royce? That offspring of the Burning Heaven Sovereign?"

She tilted her head slightly, silver hair slipping from her shoulder: "You know my rules—5,000 crystal coins."

5,000 crystal coins!

Just for roughly locating a person's current coordinates in the Ancient Battlefield.

That price was enough to make the vast majority of Immortals wince.

But Xuantong God possessed a monopolistic ability.

And her reputation was excellent—she never leaked client information.

That price, she set it as a matter of course.

Moreover, for Xu Jingming, five thousand crystal coins truly wasn't much.

"Deal."

Xu Jingming didn't hesitate in the slightest, completing the transfer directly through the Virtual Universe.

"Decisive."

Xuantong God received the payment, said nothing more, and slowly closed her eyes.

Deep within her silver-gray pupils, starlight spun rapidly, as if searching for something.

A moment later, she opened her eyes again.

With a light tap of her fingertip, a string of star-field coordinates was transmitted into Xu Jingming's smart armguard.

"Royce is currently in the 'Black Meteor Mountain' area, coordinates have been synced.

However..."

Looking at Xu Jingming, she ultimately couldn't hold back her curiosity:

"Although by the rules I shouldn't ask more...

But why are you looking for Royce? He's not someone easy to provoke.

Of course, I'm not prying into your privacy—if you don't want to say, that's fine."

"Nothing much, just had a bit of a breakthrough, want to find him to test my strength."

After receiving the coordinates, Xu Jingming grinned,

"Test your strength?"

Xuantong God was stunned, her starry eyes widening slightly.

Using Royce to test one's strength?

Although Royce was spoiled and arrogant in temperament, as one of the most beloved offspring of the Burning Heaven Sovereign,

he carried countless treasures on him, further protected by that peak heavy treasure 'Burning Heaven Mirror,' which combined offense and defense.

His true combat power was solidly at the invincible Immortal level!

This Su Chen... actually wanted to use him as a sparring partner?

Before Xuantong God could ask further, Xu Jingming had already nodded in acknowledgment: "Thanks."

His figure then faded, and he went offline directly.

In the virtual star sea, only Xuantong God remained.

A look of keen interest surfaced on her exquisitely beautiful face, her starry eyes narrowing slightly.

"Using Royce to test one's strength? Heh... is that arrogance, or does he truly have the backing?"

She murmured to herself, then likewise dissolved into starlight.

"Such an interesting matter—if I don't go see it for myself, wouldn't that be a pity?"

"You're really going to find Royce?"

Reality, inside the cavern.

Upon learning of Xu Jingming's plan, the succubus loli Vera blinked her big eyes:

"That guy is annoying, sure, but with a heavy treasure in hand, he's not easy to deal with.

What if he accidentally beats you to death? You could still resurrect, sure.

But I still have the Heart-Eroding Mark on me—how about you remove it for me first?"

The Heart-Eroding Pattern is a T0-grade enslavement art.

Once Xu Jingming dies, she will die along with him.

As for any subsequent resurrection, it has nothing whatsoever to do with her.

"Can't you wish me something good for once?"

Xu Jingming gave her a look, then stood up and rolled his neck.

His bones let out a light series of pops and cracks as tremendous divine power surged through his body:

"Royce is indeed hard to deal with, but I do have a peak-grade heavy treasure on hand.

Even if I can't win, I can still run—at worst, I'll just expose the existence of the heavy treasure.

Besides, this is the perfect chance to probe the depths of Colt and Royce."
