Chapter 641: Body Tempering Breakthrough! Doushen Shenlei Indestructible Body, Eighth Layer!

The battle ended, and the various legions gathered one after another to tally their casualties.

As a member of the Dejiaka Battle Group, Xu Jingming was naturally not bound by any rules, free to come and go as he pleased.

Only before leaving did he glance at the kill tally on his communication watch.

In those two waves of fighting just now, with low-tier and high-tier fierce beasts all added together, he had slain over three thousand of them!

Ten hours, with a four-hour rest period in the middle.

In other words, he killed over three thousand fierce beasts in six hours!

This was undoubtedly a terrifying number!

An ordinary Qixing Sect master-level powerhouse, when entangled with seventh-tier fierce beasts, could kill at most around a thousand.

Although most of these fierce beasts were only third-tier and fourth-tier, with not too many fifth- and sixth-tier ones.

Yet the final converted amount was still considerable.

These weren't Great Xia coins, but Blue Star coins!

"One campaign can earn 800 million Blue Star coins! No wonder so many master-level powerhouses come to fight."

Xu Jingming sighed inwardly.

At the level of a seventh-tier ability user, weapons, battle suits, all kinds of pills, and cultivation resources were all extremely expensive.

Only by joining the frontline battlefield could master-level powerhouses possibly become somewhat well-off.

For seventh-tier masters who had already lain flat, expenses naturally wouldn't be so great.

Of course, masters who had lain flat wouldn't risk their lives to come to this frontline battlefield, where the average casualty rate reached 40%.

"What a pity, that wave of kills from Wan Leitian Yin was counted under Wang Sheng.

Otherwise, the Blue Star coins earned would have been even more."

Shaking his head, Xu Jingming transferred all these funds to his own anonymous account.

If it were on the outside, the materials harvested from those three thousand-plus fierce beasts would be worth at least 1 billion Blue Star coins!

But after all, the legion was responsible for cleanup, and they had to earn some profit too.

Moreover, plenty of fierce beasts on the battlefield didn't even leave corpses behind, let alone allow material harvesting.

A price of 812 million was still considered fair.

Leaving the frontline battlefield, by the time Xu Jingming returned to his villa, it was just past 1 p. m.

In the first-floor living room of the villa, Xia Lan wasn't there—she was probably training at the martial arts hall.

Xu Jingming casually sat down on the living room sofa and opened his system panel.

【Name】: Xu Jingming

【Level】: Mid sixth-tier

【Ability】: Doushen Shenlei (SS)

【Physique】: Qi and Blood (+)

【Spirit】: He (+)

【Skills】: Spear Art (Master), Fist Art (Grandmaster+), Wan Leitian Yin (SSS-rank, Beginner+), Lei Shen Jiangshi (SSS-rank, Beginner+)......

【Body Tempering】: Doushen Shenlei Indestructible Body (SS-rank, Seventh Layer+)

【Spirit Refining】: Lei Hai Visualization Method (SSS-rank, Fourth Layer+)

【Ability Points】: 226,000

"To advance to upper sixth-tier, I still need quite a few ability points.

But on the battlefield just now, I clearly felt my stamina couldn't quite keep up."

Unlike before in Daxia Zhen'an City when he mostly fought with combat techniques, this time Xu Jingming used his long spear far more frequently.

And those fierce beasts, one after another with thick hides and tough flesh, felt like stabbing at solid metal when pierced!

Especially the skulls he preferred to pierce through, which were the hardest parts of a fierce beast's body.

Killing ten or a hundred, he felt nothing, but consecutively slaying hundreds or even over a thousand left his wrists slightly sore.

The Extreme Glory Thunder Ring could replenish the consumed ability, but couldn't replenish physical stamina.

On this point, compared to a true upper seventh-tier master, Xu Jingming fell short by a large margin.

After all, he was only a mid sixth-tier ability user.

Although his damage output was high, he couldn't sustain it; it was normal that his endurance couldn't compare.

"Body Tempering and Spirit Refining are the most important parts besides level.

Since that's the case, I'll put points into Body Tempering this time! Once my stamina is stronger, I can last longer!"

His gaze sharpening, Xu Jingming tapped the plus sign behind the Body Tempering column on his system panel!

Ability Points -210,000!

【Body Tempering】: Doushen Shenlei Indestructible Body Seventh Layer → Eighth Layer!

【Physique】: Qi and Blood →!

Boom!!!

Ferocious qi and blood erupted within Xu Jingming's body! Brilliant golden lightning coiled around him!

Lightning shuttled through his body, which rapidly began to strengthen—bones, meridians, and even blood vessels all became tougher!

The soft internal organs likewise swiftly became robust and powerful!

Hiss—

Steam rose up, and a powerful qi-and-blood fluctuation filled the entire living room!

"Welcome back, trainee Xia Lan."

The mechanical elevator chime sounded from the doorway.

Xia Lan had just finished her training and returned from the martial hall; the moment she stepped to the door, she sensed a powerful pressure radiating from inside the room.

It instantly made her delicate frame tremble, and she nearly couldn't keep her footing!

It was at that very moment that the smart door, having identified Xia Lan, swung open with a rumble!

The suppressed blood-qi fluctuations within instantly swept outward!

"Ah~"

Those blood-qi fluctuations were like those of a terrifying apex-level fierce beast.

Xia Lan, already trembling, could hold on no longer; her long, slender legs couldn't muster any strength.

She let out a soft cry and simply collapsed onto the floor at the doorway.

And as the door opened, Xia Lan finally spotted Xu Jingming sitting on the living room sofa.

"It's actually Jingming?"

Xia Lan's pair of azure-blue eyes were filled with shock.

At that moment, in her perception, the one sitting there didn't seem human at all, but rather an apex-level fierce beast!

But just yesterday, Xu Jingming had clearly not given off such a terrifying presence!

What on earth had happened in the meantime?

"The Doushen Shenlei has advanced to the eighth layer, and my blood-qi has surged by over five thousand points!"

Xu Jingming's eyes snapped open, and his resolute, rugged face was full of joy.

He could feel the terrifying power contained within his current physical body.

With this physique supporting him, he felt that even without relying on his SS-rank Dou Tian Shen Lei,

just by relying on the Molsha Black Obsidian Spear and his body alone, he could fight a seventh-tier upper lord-class fierce beast!

"Instructor Yang's Lei Ting has only been cultivated to the ninth layer as well.

I'm only one final layer away from my instructor's realm.

And mine is the SS-rank Doushen Shenlei, even stronger than Instructor Yang's S-rank Lei Ting!"

Xu Jingming's eyes flashed with brilliant light.

More crucially, the Doushen Shenlei is an enhanced version of the Lei Ting.

In other words, once he enters the ninth layer, he'll be able to obtain one more ability from a lightning-type fierce beast used to reshape his foundation!

"The instructor used the essence blood of the seventh-tier fierce beast 'Thunderbolt Tiger' to shape his Indestructible Body foundation.

At the sixth layer, what he obtained was the Thunderbolt Tiger's body enhancement.

Stacked together with the Thunder Extreme State, the physical body will become terrifyingly powerful.

At the ninth layer, what he obtained was the Thunderbolt Tiger's thunder pattern.

When the thunder pattern is activated, mysterious lightning patterns will appear across the body's surface.

It greatly boosts the release speed of lightning-type combat techniques, somewhat like a weakened version of 'Lei Shen Jiangshi'.

I wonder what ability my Doushen Shenlei will obtain from a dragon-type fierce beast once I cultivate it to the ninth layer."

Xu Jingming secretly looked forward to it.

The abilities obtained at the sixth layer are all related to the fierce beast's physical body.

For example, his own Thunder Dragon Wings, and Instructor Yang's body enhancement.

But the ninth layer is different — almost all of them are related to the innate abilities of lightning-type fierce beasts.

But no matter what, any innate ability inherited from a lightning-type dragon-class fierce beast will basically never be weak.

"Jingming, can you help me? Your aura is too strong, I simply can't exert any strength normally..."

At this moment, Xia Lan at the doorway had waited for quite a while.

Seeing that Xu Jingming in the living room seemed not to have noticed her, she could only speak up with a hint of embarrassment.
