Chapter 462: SSS-Grade Spirit Cultivation Technique! Top-Tier Elemental Weapon!
A melodious voice echoed through the command room; Eva was using Great Xia language, which Xu Jingming could understand.
He wasn't surprised by this, since even back at Site 9 Civilization Ruins, he had already known this AI could switch languages at will.
"Eva, I obtained this administrator access pass from Site 9 Trial Base—I'm here to claim Lei Shen's cultivation technique legacy."
Xu Jingming stated his purpose bluntly and pulled out his administrator access pass.
"Administrator 003, you indeed possess authorization to receive Lei Shen's legacy."
"I just never expected it would be activated only now, over two thousand years later..."
Eva glanced at the pass with a complex expression, then sighed slowly after a long pause.
Next, with a flick of her jade hand, an ancient-looking scripture materialized out of thin air and floated midair.
Yet this simple motion sent a shock through Xu Jingming's heart.
Spiritual force!
He had just sensed spiritual force emanating from Eva!
But how was that possible?
An AI is an electronic byproduct; no matter how intelligent, it's merely a cluster of data code.
How could it exhibit spiritual force—the domain of flesh-and-blood beings?
And worse, use that spiritual force to make objects float in midair?
"This scripture is titled 'The Lei Lei Hai Guan Xiang Method,' a unique SSS-grade cultivation technique created by Lei Shen."
Eva seemed not to notice Xu Jingming's expression change and continued:
"My subunit at Site 9 Civilization Ruins should have told you already.
This scripture offers zero prior cultivation experience for reference—you must study and comprehend it entirely on your own.
A single misinterpretation, a wrong path taken in cultivation, could lead to unpredictable consequences.
I hope you exercise extreme caution and delve deeply into it during your future practice."
As she gave these earnest warnings, the ancient scripture slowly drifted down from midair.
Xu Jingming forgot to ponder why Eva possessed spiritual force and reached out to seize it.
The scripture measured thirty centimeters in length and twenty in width—seemingly small, yet extremely heavy.
Golden lightning seemed to coil around every page, radiating an impressive aura.
"This is the scripture left by a supreme being? Truly extraordinary!"
Xu Jingming sensed the aura of the SSS-grade ability, Dou Tian Shen Lei, emanating from the scripture.
Keep in mind,
Lei Shen was a supreme being of the First Era, with a history stretching back at least four to five thousand years.
Yet his scripture still carried lingering thunder vibrations.
This alone proves Lei Shen's terrifying power!
Suppressing the urge to flip through the scripture on the spot, Xu Jingming stored it in his space ring.
Then, hesitantly, he asked Eva:
"Eva, both the SSS-grade cultivation technique and the SSS-grade combat art Lei Shen Jiang Shi are part of Lei Shen's legacy.
Now that I've inherited them all, can I transmit them to others?"
To use the system to add a new combat art, you must first achieve preliminary understanding.
But the SSS-grade cultivation technique is extremely difficult to comprehend—if possible, I want Su Qingli to study it with me.
That would increase efficiency.
"Yes."
Eva nodded slightly and whispered, "Lei Shen's legacy was originally collected by the Jin State and then granted to suitable inheritors.
Now that you are Lei Shen's inheritor, you may freely dispose of these scriptures."
"Understood." Xu Jingming's face brightened.
That means, besides the cultivation technique,
I can also give Su Qingli a copy of the SSS-grade Lei Shen Jiang Shi.
With this ultimate weapon, Su Qingli, already an elemental master, will surely ascend a full tier in power.
Unfortunately, Teacher Yang Zhentian isn't an elemental master, and his lightning ability is only A-grade.
He cannot cultivate Lei Shen Jiang Shi or Lei Lei Hai Guan Xiang Method—otherwise, I could have given him a copy too.
"Besides the cultivation technique, there is also a lightning-element exclusive weapon once used by Lei Shen.
This weapon is called 'Ji Yao Jiyao Jiyao Lei Huan'—a top-tier elemental weapon. I'll give it to you as well."
Eva's voice sounded again, and a circular ring approximately one meter in diameter materialized out of thin air.
The ring was forged from an unknown material, entirely black, covered in strange golden runes.
It appeared modest yet radiated an ancient, luxurious aura.
"Top-tier elemental weapon?!" Xu Jingming's eyes gleamed slightly.
He hadn't expected an unexpected bonus beyond the cultivation technique!
Yet its form surprised him—a ring.
Using it in battle would feel even harder to handle than his current Lei Yao Staff.
Of course,
This top-tier elemental weapon was a free gift—he had no complaints whatsoever.
"Ji Yao Jiyao Jiyao Lei Huan imitates the halo behind a deity.
Simply infuse it with lightning-element ability, and it will automatically hover behind you—no need to hold it with your hands."
As if sensing Xu Jingming's thoughts, Eva explained.
"So that's how it is," Xu Jingming suddenly understood, then immediately thought of another question.
The Extreme Radiant Lightning Ring doesn't require holding like the Radiant Lightning Staff—so wouldn't the freed hands allow me to wield a spear?
Isn't this exactly what I'd eagerly hoped for: benefiting from an elemental weapon's enhancement while still engaging in close combat?
"I thought I'd need to buy a separate lightning-element weapon—turns out this problem's been solved for me too!"
Xu Jingming's face glowed with excitement.
But Eva's next sentence doused much of his enthusiasm:
"The Extreme Radiant Lightning Ring stores and amplifies lightning-element abilities.
The original, complete Extreme Radiant Lightning Ring of Lei Shen was a Perfect-grade elemental weapon, consisting of five rings.
But he was a supreme powerhouse of the First Era, and by the time he reached our Jin State,
the only Extreme Radiant Lightning Ring that could be found was just a single ring.
And it hadn't even been repaired yet—it can't be used normally..."
"This..."
Upon closer inspection, Xu Jingming indeed noticed many fine cracks on the Extreme Radiant Lightning Ring.
His expression immediately soured—he'd gotten too excited too soon.
"But the good news is, repairing the Extreme Radiant Lightning Ring isn't difficult.
You just need to find a Level Seven or higher Artificer Master, and you should be able to restore it."
Eva added quickly.
"You scared me half to death—as long as it can be repaired."
Hearing this, Xu Jingming finally exhaled, then said softly:
"But Eva, you really didn't need to split that into two parts—you could've just said it all at once."
Level Seven Artificer Masters are rare, but they aren't nonexistent.
Once we return to Lei Ting Martial Hall, I can ask Teacher Su to help make contact.
Still, Eva's dramatic pause left him feeling uneasy.
Also, he finally understood why Eva from Mo Da had such a capricious personality.
If the mother body is like this, how could the offspring body not copy it?
"Eva understands."
Eva blinked her clear, large eyes; a faint, almost imperceptible mischief flashed across her fair face, then she turned serious:
"Administrator 003, Lei Shen's legacy has been fully bestowed upon you. Do you have any other needs?"
"Uh... I'd like to ask—could you give me a top-tier artificial intelligence offspring similar to Mo Da's Eva?"
As he stored the Extreme Radiant Lightning Ring in his space ring, Xu Jingming rubbed his hands together, eagerly asking.
