Chapter 641: Breakthrough in Physique Cultivation

The battle ended, and the major battalions gradually assembled to tally casualties.

As a member of the Degaka Battalion, Xu Jingming was free to come and go as he pleased.

But before leaving, he glanced at the kill count on his communication watch.

In those two waves of combat, combining low- and high-tier beasts, he had slain over three thousand!

Ten hours total, with four hours of rest in between.

That meant he killed over three thousand beasts in six hours!

This was undoubtedly an extremely terrifying number!

Even a typical Seventh-Rank Master, struggling against Seventh-Tier beasts, could at most kill around a thousand.

Although most of these beasts were merely Third- or Fourth-Tier, with only a modest number of Fifth- and Sixth-Tier ones.

Yet the final monetary value was still substantial.

This wasn't Daxia currency—it was Blue Star currency!

"One battle earns 800 million Blue Star credits! No wonder so many Masters come to fight."

Xu Jingming silently marveled.

At the Seventh-Rank Energy User level, whether weapons, battle armor, pills, or cultivation resources, everything was extremely expensive.

Only by joining the front-line battlefield could Masters hope to become slightly wealthier.

A Seventh-Rank Master who had already given up would naturally have far lower expenses.

Of course, a Master who had given up would never risk his life on a front line with an average death rate of 40%.

"Too bad—the beasts killed by the Wan Leitian Prison strike were credited to Wang Sheng."

"Otherwise, I would've earned even more Blue Star credits."

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

Outside the battlefield, the materials harvested from these three thousand beasts alone would be worth at least one billion Blue Star credits!

But since the battalion handled the cleanup, they needed to make some profit too.

Moreover, many beasts on the battlefield left no corpses at all, let alone materials to harvest.

Eight hundred twelve million was a fair price.

After leaving the front line, Xu Jingming returned to his villa just past 1 p. .

Xia Lan wasn't in the first-floor living room—she was probably training at the martial arts academy.

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

【Name】: Xu Jingming

【Level】: Sixth-Rank Mid-Level

【Energy】: Dou Tian Divine Thunder (SS)

【Physique】: Blood Qi (+)

【Spirit】: He (+)

【Skills】: Spear Technique (Master), Fist Technique (Grandmaster+), Wan Leitian Prison Draw (SSS, Beginner+), Lei Shen Descends (SSS, Beginner+)......

【Physique Cultivation】: Divine Thunder Indestructible Body (SS, Seventh Level+)

【Spirit Cultivation】: Lei Hai Contemplation Method (SSS, Fourth Level+)

【Energy Points】: 226, 00

"To advance to Sixth-Rank Upper Level, I still need a lot of energy points."

"But during the recent battle, I clearly felt my stamina was running low."

Unlike before in Daxia Zhen'an City, where he mostly relied on combat techniques, this time Xu Jingming used his spear far more frequently.

And those beasts? Each had thick, tough hides—stabbing them felt like piercing hardened metal!

Especially since he preferred piercing their skulls, the hardest part of their bodies.

Killing ten or a hundred brought no fatigue, but after killing hundreds, even thousands, his wrists began to ache slightly.

The Ji Yao Thunder Ring could replenish his energy, but not his physical stamina.

In this regard, Xu Jingming lagged far behind true Seventh-Rank Upper-Level Masters.

After all, he was only a Sixth-Rank Mid-Level Energy User.

His damage output was high, but he couldn't sustain it—his endurance simply couldn't match theirs.

"Physique cultivation and spirit cultivation are the most important aspects besides rank."

"Then I'll focus on adding points to physique cultivation this time! Strengthen my stamina first, so I can last longer!"

His gaze sharpened, and Xu Jingming clicked the plus sign next to the Physique Cultivation section on his system panel!

Energy Points -210, 00!

【Physique Cultivation】: Divine Thunder Indestructible Body—Seventh Level → Eighth Level!

【Physique】: Blood Qi →!

BOOM!!!

Powerful blood qi erupted within Xu Jingming! Brilliant golden thunder swirled around him!

Thunder surged through his body, rapidly strengthening his bones, meridians, and even his blood vessels!

His soft internal organs likewise hardened and grew powerful!

Hss—

Steam rose as a fierce blood qi surge filled the entire living room!

"Welcome back, student Xia Lan."

The mechanical elevator chime sounded at the door.

Xia Lan, just finished training at the martial arts academy, stepped through the threshold and immediately felt a crushing pressure radiating from inside.

Her slender frame trembled, nearly losing her balance!

Just then, the smart door, recognizing her, swung open with a roar!

The suppressed blood qi surged outward!

"Ah~"

This blood qi felt like that of a top-tier beast.

Xia Lan, already trembling, could no longer muster strength in her long, beautiful legs.

She cried out and collapsed onto the floor by the door.

Only then, as the door opened, did she see Xu Jingming seated on the living room sofa.

"It's Jingming?"

Xia Lan's azure eyes widened in shock.

In this moment, what sat before her didn't feel human—it felt like a top-tier beast!

Yet yesterday, Xu Jingming had not felt nearly this powerful.

What had happened in between?

"With Divine Thunder Indestructible Body reaching Eighth Level, my blood qi surged by over five thousand points!"

His eyes snapped open, his rugged face glowing with delight.

He could feel the terrifying power now contained within his flesh.

With this physique enhancement, he felt he could fight a Seventh-Rank Upper-Level Lord Beast—even without relying on his SS-grade Dou Tian Divine Thunder.

Just with the Molten Black Obsidian Spear and his body alone, he could match it!

"Teacher Yang's Thunder Indestructible Body only reached Ninth Level."

"I'm just one level away from his attainment."

"And mine is SS-grade Divine Thunder Indestructible Body—stronger than Teacher Yang's S-grade Thunder Indestructible Body!"

Xu Jingming's eyes gleamed.

More importantly, Divine Thunder Indestructible Body was an enhanced version of Thunder Indestructible Body.

That meant, once he reached Ninth Level, he could gain a new ability from a thunder-type beast used to forge his foundation.

"Teacher Yang forged his Indestructible Body foundation using the blood of a Seventh-Tier beast, the Rushing Thunder Tiger."

"At Sixth Level, he gained the Rushing Thunder Tiger's physical enhancement."

Combined with Lei Jitai, his body became terrifyingly strong.

"At Ninth Level, he gained the Rushing Thunder Tiger's thunder markings."

"When activated, arcane thunder patterns appear on the skin."

"They greatly increase the casting speed of thunder techniques—somewhat like a weakened version of Lei Shen Descends."

"I wonder what ability my Divine Thunder Indestructible Body will gain at Ninth Level from a dragon-type beast."

Xu Jingming silently looked forward to it.

The abilities gained at Sixth Level were all tied to the beast's physical traits.

Like his own Lei Long Wings, and Teacher Yang's physical enhancement.

But Ninth Level was different—it was almost always tied to the thunder-type beast's innate abilities.

But no matter what, any innate ability inherited from a thunder-type dragon beast would certainly be powerful.

"Jingming, can you help me? Your aura is too strong—I can't even exert normal force..."

At that moment, Xia Lan waited by the door for a long while.

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