Chapter 429: Chain Blast! All Fifth-Rank Dead!

Before the rustic courtyard, more than twenty psychics unleashed their auras without restraint.

The entire air was thick with overwhelming pressure.

"Your perception is decent, but Thunder Martial Arts Gym is still a major force in your Great Xia."

"Yet you sent only a bunch of nobodies? That's unexpected."

A clumsy accent of Great Xia's common tongue suddenly rang out as the leader, wielding a long blade, activated his psychic ability.

On the face of the two-meter-tall giant, distinctly marked by Burmese features, a chilling smile appeared:

"But this works out fine—killing you all makes our mission payout much easier."

With that, the giant barked a command in Burmese: "Charge!"

"Ha! Great Xia psychics! Kill! Kill! Kill!"

"Prepare to die!"

"Kneel and beg for mercy—maybe we'll spare you!"

Amid the garbled shouts of common tongue, over twenty psychics, excluding the giant, surged forward in a frenzied rush!

On the other side, though anxious, Lin Hui still drew his elemental weapon.

Scorching flames swirled around his body, as if brewing a terrifying fire technique.

Xia Lan, Li Xiang, and Du Wan also entered combat stance.

But before they could move, Xu Jingming's deep voice rang out:

"I'll handle this alone. You don't need to fight."

For Lin Hui and the others, facing this group of fifth- and sixth-rank psychics was still too much.

So better not fight at all.

"You alone?"

Xia Lan and the others froze, too stunned to react.

Then—BOOM! —the muddy ground exploded as golden lightning flashed, and Xu Jingming shot forward like a cannonball!

"Thunder Extreme State!"

"Lei Shen Descends!"

Crackling—

Violent golden lightning erupted outward!

Mid-air, Xu Jingming entered his enhanced state, activating the SSS-tier technique "Lei Shen Descends" for amplification!

BOOM!

When he crossed dozens of meters and his combat boots slammed into the ground,

he stood with a spectral Lei Shen looming above his head, his height now two meters and twenty centimeters!

His muscles swelled, and faint golden scales covered the vulnerable joints of his body.

A pair of brilliant golden dragon eyes, utterly devoid of emotion, stared at the psychics ahead like they were already dead.

"This is..."

"Such overwhelming pressure? This guy is really just fifth rank!"

Seeing Xu Jingming's aura surge more than fivefold instantly,

the psychics who had been screaming and charging all halted, uncertain and alarmed.

In fact,

not only the Burmese psychics, but even Lin Hui and the others felt immense pressure!

"Is this Xu Jingming's full strength, the one he showed during the trial?"

Xia Lan pressed her right hand against her chest, now notably developed.

Her beautiful eyes widened in shock as she stared at the towering figure wreathed in golden lightning, like a steel tower.

She was only upper fourth rank—the weakest among them, aside from Du Wan!

Beneath the overwhelming aura Xu Jingming unconsciously radiated, she felt her heart race.

Every hair on her body stood on end; even breathing became difficult!

This was the natural negative emotion a lower lifeform felt facing a higher one.

Like a herbivorous rabbit encountering a prehistoric tyrannosaur!

She was the rabbit; Xu Jingming was the tyrannosaur!

"I didn't feel it so strongly during the trial, but now—Xu Jingming's pressure is overwhelming!"

Lin Hui couldn't help murmuring in awe.

During the trial, though they sat in the innermost spectator seats closest to the arena,

the arena was still 800 meters by 800 meters—too far away.

They had sensed the pressure then too, but never this intensely.

"Just this aura alone might paralyze lower-rank psychics."

Du Wan, sporting a cartoon strawberry hairpin, whispered timidly.

Meanwhile, the mass of psychics, though not paralyzed, still faced crushing pressure!

"Last chance: what's your connection to Lu Qi? Why ambush us here?"

The Thunder Scepter was already gripped in Xu Jingming's hand.

Within its transparent core, violent golden lightning flickered wildly, as if ready to burst forth.

"Didn't expect you, little Great Xia brat, to have some real skill."

The giant, who had originally planned to stay back, now stepped forward, gripping his battle blade with surprise:

"But we never betray client information—so prepare to die!"

With that, his face twisted into a monstrous snarl as he stomped forward!

Rush! Then slash!

In the blink of an eye, he crossed dozens of meters.

He reached Xu Jingming's front and swung his blade, wrapped in blood aura, down with full force!

He was fast—but Xu Jingming was faster!

A sharp *ssss* rang out as golden lightning flashed; Xu Jingming's Lei Long Wings unfurled, launching him straight into the air dozens of meters up!

*Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! *

At that moment, the psychics' ranged elemental attacks arrived!

Fireballs mixed with wind blades rained down relentlessly on Xu Jingming!

"Thunder Barrier!"

*Wum—*

Golden lightning coalesced into an eggshell-like shield, enclosing Xu Jingming completely!

The terrifying elemental attacks slammed against it—yet not even a tremor shook the barrier!

"Stubborn! So you won't answer my question?"

"Then die! Thunder Ball! Lightning Chain!"

Crackling—

A golden thunderball, over three meters in diameter, suddenly formed in the sky, like a miniature sun, hurtling toward them!

But that wasn't all—under the SSS-tier technique "Lei Shen Descends,"

a lightning chain as thick as a barrel followed instantly!

"He's an elementalist! And he can fly!"

"Where's our elementalist?! Quick! Raise the shield!"

In Great Xia, elementals were rare, but major factions like Thunder Martial Arts Gym still had several.

But in resource-poor Burma, the 6,000 mental power threshold

and scarcity of Shenlian techniques made elementals extremely rare!

Thus, upon realizing Xu Jingming was an elementalist, all of them simultaneously showed terrified expressions.

They urgently urged their lone sixth-rank elementalist to raise a shield!

*Wum—*

A wind-elemental barrier instantly enveloped and protected them.

But before they could rejoice, the massive thunderball crashed down!

Crackling—

In an instant, the thunderball shattered the entire elemental shield!

Then it exploded violently!

Like a broadsword landmine, golden lightning plasma and wild thunder erupted outward!

Directly vaporizing the psychics at the center into charred corpses!

Those slightly farther away were severely wounded—but not yet dead.

Then the lightning chain struck!

*Sssss! Sssss! *

Thick golden lightning bolts surged forward, bouncing between the surviving psychics!

Like the scythe of Death, it mercilessly reaped their lives.

Thus, with one Thunderball spell and a Lightning Chain cast down, all the fifth-rank adepts except those four sixth-rank adepts were eliminated.

The remaining fifth-rank adepts perished without exception.
