Chapter 176: Slaying Third-Tier Like Butchering Dogs! The Thunder Spear Clears the Path!

~6 min read 1,101 words

Unlike enhancement-type ability users, element-type ability users have two paths of development.

One focuses on close-quarters combat, the other on long-range spell-type battle techniques.

Cai Ju saw Xu Jingming unleash those terrifying Lei Ting fingers, along with his masterful manipulation of lightning's shifting forms.

He instinctively assumed Xu Jingming walked the same long-range strike path as Zhang Tong.

He never expected Xu Jingming also seemed to possess extraordinary attainments in spear arts.

"Bishop Zhao is dead?!"

Cai Ju was astonished by Xu Jingming's spear arts, while the Tianming Sect people were shocked by Xu Jingming's overwhelming combat power.

One must understand,

among those present there were only two peak third-tier.

Yet in a single exchange, one of those peak third-tier was instantly killed.

And Xu Jingming was only lower third-tier — how could they not feel shaken?

"Who exactly are you? If you are willing to spare us, you will be the Tianming Sect's eternal friend.

We will personally petition my lord the Divine Emissary to grant you the position of Cardinal."

The remaining eleven Tianming Sect cultists all wore Solemn expressions as they stared at Xu Jingming.

In their eyes, the threat Xu Jingming alone posed far exceeded that of Cai Ju's four combined!

Best to make him withdraw from the fight.

Otherwise, in this battle their odds of victory were practically zero.

"I've killed quite a few of yours — and you'd still be willing to let me go?"

Xu Jingming was somewhat taken aback; the Tianming Sect people were even more pathetic than he had imagined.

He then shook his head, a pair of resplendent golden dragon pupils fixing on them:

"Sorry, I have no interest whatsoever in your Tianming Sect.

Besides, your intelligence network seems rather sluggish.

A week ago your Holy Son died at my hands, yet none of you had any related intelligence..."

On this point alone, the Tianming Sect was destined never to amount to much.

"You're that S-rank from Modu University — Xu Jingming?!"

Someone cried out, finally recognizing Xu Jingming's identity.

They had also heard of this terrifyingly powerful S-rank from Modu Ability University.

They simply assumed Xu Jingming would never leave Modu, so they hadn't paid him much attention.

They never expected him to have tracked them down here!

"Captain Cai, let's move."

Xu Jingming offered no further explanation.

Grips the Azure Sky Black Flood Dragon Spear, a thunder flash — he vanished on the spot and reappeared before his next target!

Puchi!!

One thrust — the mid third-tier ability user had no time to defend, and his skull was easily pierced!

Instant kill! Another instant kill!

At this moment, boundless terror rose in the hearts of the Tianming Sect's remaining ten.

Before this Modu University S-rank,

these third-tier ability users — who seemed incomparably powerful to ordinary people — were no different from pigs and dogs, free to be slaughtered at will...

In truth,

from Xu Jingming's perspective, this lot really were about the same as pigs and dogs.

After all, in his normal form Xu Jingming's physical attributes already matched those of a peak third-tier enhancement-type A-rank ability user.

After entering Lightning Extreme State, his physical attributes were further boosted!

Yet this lot generally only possessed C-rank abilities, with just one peak third-tier among them.

In both strength and neural reaction speed, they were completely outclassed by Xu Jingming...

"Die! Blazing Fireball!"

"Black Panther Slash!"

"..."

Cai Ju and the others also threw themselves into the fight.

Xu Jingming's two crisp, clean kills had already scared the Tianming Sect people out of their wits.

For pride of the Public Security Bureau like Cai Ju, dealing with a group this terrified was almost laughably easy.

So, in just a few back-and-forth exchanges,

of the ten Tianming Sect cultists, only five remained alive!

Three had been slain by Xu Jingming, and the other two by Cai Ju and his group.

"My lord the Divine Emissary, please save us!!"

Tianming Sect cultists are synonymous with bloodlust and frenzy.

Yet before the one-sided slaughter by Xu Jingming and his companions, they still could not bear the terror in their hearts and cried out for help at the top of their lungs.

However, the blood-red great door behind them showed not the slightest sign of opening...

"It seems your my lord the Divine Emissary has already abandoned you."

Xu Jingming's expression was cold. Seeing he was about to strike again, Cai Ju hurriedly raised a hand to stop him:

"Brother Xu, hold off — we still need to keep a few alive for questioning..."

If he hadn't known beforehand that Xu Jingming was a student of Mo Da.

Just based on the other party's performance of killing without blinking after entering the Tianming Sect base.

Cai Ju would have suspected Xu Jingming was a professional assassin.

"Oh? That works too."

Xu Jingming's figure swayed, and together with Cai Ju and the others, it took less than 1 minute to capture and knock out the remaining 5 people.

And used the Security Bureau's special A-grade alloy handcuffs to cuff them all together.

"Next, is to enter the Blood Pool."

Xu Jingming took the access card searched from Zhao Wuhao's body and lightly swiped it at the sensor beside the blood-colored alloy door.

"Beep, welcome Bishop Zhao to the Blood Pool."

The mechanical electronic prompt sounded, and the blood-colored alloy door slowly slid open.

What came into everyone's view was a primitive cavern.

Inside the cavern, the light was dim, and the specific environment could not be seen clearly.

However, one could faintly see a pool of blood-red water inside!

The thick stench of blood rushed in, making Zhang Tong and the others, who were used to seeing dead people, unable to resist covering their mouths and noses.

"The Divine Blood Envoy ran?"

Cai Ju frowned, about to lead people in to check the situation.

"Don't rush."

Xu Jingming's expression was steady. "The situation inside is a bit strange, let me make a move first to test it."

Cai Ju was slightly stunned, and also realized that his behavior just now seemed a bit rash, and couldn't help but nod slightly:

"Alright."

Xu Jingming put his Qingxiao Black Flood Dragon Spear into his spatial ring, then gripped his right hand in the void.

Crackle-crackle!!!

Accompanied by a piercing thunder, a dazzling and brilliant Lei Ting long spear condensed out!

Then Xu Jingming exerted force with his right hand, and a loud sound rang out — that was the commotion produced by breaking through the sound barrier!

The Lei Mao shot toward the Blood Pool like lightning!
