Chapter 805: Return! The Tianming Sect

The Thunder Martial Arts Academy library had many enhancement-type combat techniques.

After entering the library, with Eva's assistance,

Xu Jingming spent just over an hour before finding an SSS+ level gun technique called "Starlight Spear."

Because his body cultivation technique had evolved from SS rank to SSS rank through point allocation.

Thus, all the SSS and SS rank body cultivation techniques he had borrowed from the library were now useless.

So, after obtaining the "Starlight Spear" technique, Xu Jingming returned all his body cultivation techniques.

Su Qingli, being a ninth-rank Lightning System Law Saint, possessed an extremely deep understanding of Lightning System abilities.

To transform the enhancement-type "Starlight Spear" into a Lightning System technique, besides needing ability points, one also required sufficient foundational understanding.

Therefore, all morning, Xu Jingming stayed at Su Qingli's place asking questions.

Of course, Su Qingli also occasionally raised her own questions.

The SSS rank technique "Lei Shen Jiang Shi" had, after months of effort, nearly been mastered by her.

You know,

Su Qingli did not possess the Blue System that could directly allocate points; her level of insight was undoubtedly extraordinary.

If not for consuming the SSR heavenly treasure with severe side effects, her limit would certainly not have been ninth-rank lower tier.

At noon, after eating lunch at Su Qingli's villa, Xu Jingming boarded a combat aircraft and flew toward Maben in Dayangzhou.

"There's less than two months left before the Martial Arts Academy Exchange Competition begins.

After returning, I'll spend one day with Teacher Ling, then stay in the Wild Zone from then on."

Inside the cockpit, Xu Jingming thought silently.

Of course, during this time, he'd need to return occasionally.

The Yer Secret Realm's opening time is not fixed, only roughly two months from now.

If the realm opens early and he remains too long in the Wild Zone without receiving the news, the joke would be on him...

As Xu Jingming departed from Dayaxia toward Maben, the Tianming Sect in Maben, Dayangzhou, also opened its weekly routine meeting.

"Blessed by Heaven's Mandate, the Heavenly God endures..."

In the dimly lit Tianming Sect temple, low and devout prayers echoed.

At the very top of the temple, the Grand Pontiff Tian Ling sat calmly upon the Wang Zuo.

To the left and right of the Wang Zuo, besides the Vice Grand Pontiffs Tian Yao and Tian Xuan,

there was another figure shrouded entirely in gray mist, revealing only a pair of crimson eyes.

He was Tian Hong, Grand Pontiff of the Xiatianming Sect, attending this meeting via holographic projection.

"Tian Hong, you go first. Report on the situation in Dayaxia."

After the prayer ended, Tian Ling turned to Tian Hong, his voice low and hoarse.

This was Tian Hong's first time attending their Maben meeting; naturally, he should speak first.

Also to see what matter Tian Hong wished to discuss with them.

"Alright."

Tian Hong nodded and said gravely: "Due to the opposition from Dayaxia's strong figures, our Tianming Sect's development in Dayaxia has not been smooth.

But fortunately..."

Tian Hong first briefly described the situation in Dayaxia, then turned to the main topic:

"Overall, although our development in Dayaxia faces difficulties, it can still continue.

But what angers me is that one of our Tianming Sect's eighth-rank mid-tier Blood Divine Envoys was slain by Xu Jingming!"

"You mean Lu Wenliang? He was killed by Xu Jingming? Is this information reliable?"

Tian Ling frowned.

He had seen reports about this incident in Dayaxia just a few days ago.

He had assumed it was some Dayaxia strong figure who acted—never expecting it was Xu Jingming.

"Reliable."

Tian Hong's voice, suppressing his fury, rang out:

"His alias on the Swordmaster Forum is 'Blood Killer'—this is news I only uncovered yesterday.

Lu Wenliang was an eighth-rank mid-tier Master Zongshi; after activating his Blood Divine Art, he could rival an eighth-rank upper tier!

Yet even so, he was still slain by Xu Jingming.

And Xu Jingming is only twenty years old; two years ago, he was still merely an Awakened.

The Holy Master won't awaken for nearly three more years—I believe we must eliminate Xu Jingming as soon as possible!

Otherwise, I fear he will interfere with the Holy Master's revival.

Xu Jingming won't stay long in Dayaxia, and I cannot act myself—so I beg you to deal with him."

"The Holy Master is invincible, unstoppable! No mere SSS-rank could possibly hinder him!"

Tian Ling's low roar echoed; below, the Red Grand Pontiff grew fanatical, and strange prayers rose continuously.

The crimson crescent moon hanging on the central wall of the temple faintly glowed.

After a long while, the prayers gradually ceased, and Tian Ling continued:

"Yet if we allow Xu Jingming to continue growing, he will indeed become a threat to our Tianming Sect.

This matter requires careful planning—we must strike with one decisive blow.

Otherwise, if we fail, Xu Jingming will be on guard, and we won't get another chance.

Tian Xuan, you are to plan this. I expect a detailed strategy in one week."

"Yes!" Tian Xuan gave a slight nod.

Beside him, the alluring figure of the Sky Demon — a ravishing beauty — frowned.

Since the last failed attempt to ambush Hearing Ling Shuang, she seemed to have fallen out of favor, and it was usually Tianxuan who was sent to handle matters.

"Uncle Ling, no need for all that trouble. The Teacher has already arranged everything."

At that moment, from the crowd below, Tianjian spoke in a relaxed tone.

"Lord Tianming already has a plan?" Tianling and the others immediately lit up.

Tianming!

The founder of the Tianming Sect — the seventh supreme powerhouse beyond the six great powers of Blue Star!

Tianming had long since stopped giving direct guidance on the specific affairs of the Tianming Sect.

"That's right."

A teasing smile surfaced on Tianjian's pale, cold, austere face:

"The Yell Secret Realm is about to open. When it does, most nations on Blue Star will send their Rank-8 powerhouses to harvest rare flowers and exotic herbs.

When the time comes, we will deliver a grand gift to those lowly humans!

Let them witness the might of our Sacred Race!"

"Only ability users below Rank-9 may enter the Yell Secret Realm. When it comes to the number of Rank-8 powerhouses, I'm afraid we can't match them."

Tianling frowned and said in a low voice.

Though the Tianming Sect was powerful, it could not possibly outmatch every other nation on Blue Star.

Otherwise, they would not have needed to hide in the shadows.

And for this opening of the Yell Secret Realm, every major nation on Blue Star would surely send their elite Rank-8 Grandmasters.

The Rank-8s of the Tianming Sect could not possibly outmatch those people in raw strength.

"Uncle Ling need not worry."

A wicked, fanatical smile spread across Tianjian's face:

"The Tianming Divine Envoy plan is already complete. No matter how many Rank-8 Grandmasters are in the secret realm,

before the Tianming Divine Envoy, they are nothing more than lambs awaiting the slaughter!"
