Chapter 454: Incomplete Elemental Essence! Leng Yuexi

"Alright." Leng Yuexi nodded and released the metal sphere she had retrieved into her spatial ring before the battle.

Hum—

The metal sphere flew onto the transparent glass cover, projecting pale blue virtual light rays to scan carefully.

After only a few seconds, it provided the analysis results:

"Information collection complete. The probability that these three energy clusters are Elemental Essence is 96%.

Fire-type Elemental Essence; the probability of causing an A-rank talent to evolve into an S-rank is 87%.

Light-type Elemental Essence; the probability of causing an A-rank talent to evolve into an S-rank is 24%.

Water-type Elemental Essence; the probability of causing an A-rank talent to evolve into an S-rank is 26%."

As the voice faded, Xu Jingming and Leng Yuexi frowned simultaneously:

"What's going on? They are all Elemental Essence; how can the success rate for talent evolution differ so much?"

"After passing through more than two thousand years of time, due to unknown reasons, the energy of the light-type and water-type Elemental Essence has leaked severely.

The fire-type Elemental Essence energy has been preserved relatively well, which is why the success rates for talent evolution differ."

The metal sphere's mechanical prompt sounded.

"Energy leakage, this..."

Leng Yuexi's expression froze, looking somewhat troubled.

If all three pieces of Elemental Essence were intact, naturally everything would be easy to handle—just split them equally.

But now, the other two pieces of Elemental Essence only have a talent evolution success rate of just over 20%.

They can almost be considered two defective products, with their value greatly diminished.

It can be said that all the remaining items in this civilization ruin combined do not compare to this single intact piece of fire-type Elemental Essence.

And this piece of Elemental Essence happens to be extremely important to her; she must obtain it...

After pondering for a moment, she made her decision. Her beautiful eyes looked toward Xu Jingming, and she said sincerely:

"Junior Brother Jingming, the fire Elemental Essence among these three is extremely important to me.

How about we distribute them like this: the fire-type Elemental Essence goes to me, and the light-type and water-type Elemental Essence both go to you.

Additionally, those two Liquid Gold Guard remains will also go to you."

In the entire civilization base, these few items are the most valuable.

She only wants the fire-type Elemental Essence; everything else goes to Xu Jingming.

"No problem, just do as Sister Xi says." Xu Jingming didn't really care about this.

His biggest goal for entering the Kanda Wilderness this time was to harvest Talent Points.

Entering the ruins was just something done in passing; getting these extra gains is already quite good.

"Great!"

Leng Yuexi's eyes lit up, her pretty face turning slightly red from excitement.

Immediately after, she enthusiastically pulled Xu Jingming into her arms, giving him a 'face-cleansing' embrace:

"Junior Brother Jingming, you are simply amazing!"

"Hiss."

Caught off guard, feeling that astonishing softness that didn't lose to Song Song Qiuyun's,

Xu Jingming gasped, not knowing whether to hug her back or not.

Fortunately, this hug came quickly and went quickly. Leng Yuexi soon let Xu Jingming go and said with a smile:

"Let's go, let's get the Elemental Essence first."

Saying this, she opened the glass cover and took out the three pieces of Elemental Essence.

She kept the fire-type one and handed the other two over:

"Here, these two pieces of Elemental Essence are yours.

Elemental Essence is different from ordinary heavenly treasures; it doesn't require special preservation and can be stored casually."

"Alright." Xu Jingming nodded and took the two light orbs.

Unlike the energy form he imagined, these two pieces of Elemental Essence were not light, weighing about 1 kilogram each.

However, the feeling they gave was completely different: one was as warm as sunlight, the other as cold as seawater.

"Two pieces of Elemental Essence, one light-type, one water-type.

Although they are both incomplete, they are still quite good. The light-type can be given to Song Qiuyun, and the water-type can be kept for now..."

Xu Jingming thought silently to himself.

A 24% success rate is indeed not comparable to that intact piece of fire-type Elemental Essence.

But who knows? What if he gets lucky and the evolution succeeds?

"By the way, Yinbai, is there any way to replenish the leaked energy of the Elemental Essence to restore its original talent evolution success rate?"

Xu Jingming, having put the two pieces of Elemental Essence into his spatial ring, had a thought and asked.

If it could be restored, then there would be no rush to let Song Qiuyun use it.

"There is no relevant record in my database, but Elemental Essence is inherently elemental energy condensed to the extreme.

You can try going to a place dense with elemental energy to see if it can recover."

The metal sphere replied.

"A place dense with elemental energy? I understand." Xu Jingming nodded.

In the Training Building of the Thunder Martial Arts Hall headquarters, there are elemental pools for those with different elemental talents to improve their talent proficiency.

When the time comes, he can go there and try.

If they can truly be restored, then these two incomplete elemental essences will be a massive profit!

"There are similar locations in the Chaotic Triangle Domain; I can take you there after we return."

Leng Yuexi also nodded, then said somewhat impatiently:

"Jingming, help me watch the surrounding environment; I'm going to use this Elemental Essence now."

"So fast? Aren't you going to find a place dense with fire elements to try and improve the success rate?"

Xu Jingming was somewhat surprised.

"No need, an 87% success rate is already high enough."

Leng Yuexi shook her head, her fair, pretty face carrying a hint of anticipation:

"Besides, even if the evolution fails, it's still a pseudo-S-rank talent; it's not a loss either way."

"That's true. Alright then, use it with peace of mind. It just so happens I can see how this Elemental Essence is used."

Crackle, crackle—

Brilliant golden thunder erupted around them, shrouding Xu Jingming, Leng Yuexi, and some of the surrounding area.

This is the Perfection-level Thunder Barrier, which can control its size at will.

With this protective measure in place, even if there were any emergencies, there would be a layer of protection.

Seeing this, Leng Yuexi sat cross-legged on the ground, placed the fire-type Elemental Essence on her lap, and said softly:

"The use of Elemental Essence is very simple; you just need to touch it with your talent..."

As she spoke, a wisp of crimson flame appeared out of thin air and quickly wrapped around the red Elemental Essence.

Boom!!

As soon as the flames wrapped around it, it was as if a switch had been flipped; the entire crimson light orb exploded violently!

Immediately after, scorching flames surged out, enveloping Leng Yuexi entirely.

The color of her original crimson flame ability suddenly began to deepen.

At the same time, the dangerous aura it emitted became increasingly terrifying, to the point that even Xu Jingming felt a sense of palpitation.

"This aura, it feels like it will definitely evolve into S-rank..."

Xu Jingming's eyes flickered as he carefully observed the evolution process.

It would be good for later, so he could let Song Song Qiuyun use that light-type Elemental Essence.

Boom~~~

The raging flames burned, and the temperature in the entire side hall rose sharply.

In less than a minute, it had risen to as high as a thousand degrees!

Under this terrifying high temperature, the black instrument in the very center had already begun to self-ignite.

Even Xu Jingming frowned slightly; if the temperature continued to rise, he feared even he wouldn't be able to withstand it.

And Leng Yuexi, sitting cross-legged on the ground, felt her aura continuing to climb... ===== CHAPTER 455 =====
