Chapter 821: 80% Lei Ting Amplification! Encountering Zhou Yu!

"Can absorb Lei Ting to repair? What kind of metal is this?"

Xu Jingming was stunned.

But then he thought again— he already had the SSR-grade liquid battle suit 'Yuan Jia'.

An elemental weapon that repairs via Lei Ting doesn't seem so strange.

"It looks much thicker than before, like another layer has been wrapped around the original ring."

Xu Jingming carefully examined the enlarged Ji Yao Jiyao Jiyao Lei Huan in his hand.

Compared to before, the patterns on the new Ji Yao Jiyao Jiyao Lei Huan were far more complex and distinct.

"Let's test the amplification of the Ji Yao Jiyao Jiyao Lei Huan first."

Golden Lei Ting surged in, and the new Ji Yao Jiyao Jiyao Lei Huan floated again behind Xu Jingming.

Crackling—

Just as before, as the Ji Yao Jiyao Jiyao Lei Huan spun, Lei Ting flashed and leapt within it, radiating a deadly, dangerous aura.

But Xu Jingming immediately noticed the difference from before.

After amplification by the Ji Yao Jiyao Jiyao Lei Huan, the Dou Tian Shen Lei seemed darker and deeper in color!

"Eva, scan the energy fluctuations."

Under Eva's virtual blue-light scan, Xu Jingming tested the power output with and without the Ji Yao Jiyao Jiyao Lei Huan.

After several repeated tests, Eva quickly gave the result:

"The dual Ji Yao Jiyao Jiyao Lei Huan significantly boosts your S-class power."

Previously, it amplified Lei Ting by 40%; now it's over 80%."

"80%?" Xu Jingming's face lit up with delight.

At his level, the power of his Lei Ting ability was already extremely hard to improve further.

Unless his base attributes surged dramatically, or the SSS-grade 'Doushen Shenlei Xuesha Body' unlocked a new form.

An 80% amplification of Lei Ting power from the Ji Yao Jiyao Jiyao Lei Huan was already monstrous!

"If just a dual ring gives 80% amplification, how terrifying would a full five-ring version be?"

Xu Jingming couldn't help whispering in awe.

The amplification from a perfect-grade elemental weapon was simply too terrifying.

"According to records, a complete Ji Yao Jiyao Jiyao Lei Huan can amplify Lei Shen's Lei Ting power by 50%."

Eva shook her head, "But at that time, Lei Shen was already an ultimate powerhouse— even 50% amplification was terrifying.

I estimate that at ninth rank, a complete Ji Yao Jiyao Jiyao Lei Huan should provide at least two to three times the Lei Ting amplification."

"Two to three times?" Xu Jingming exhaled slowly.

It seems that after leaving the Yer Secret Realm, I should spend some effort tracking down similar rings.

"For now, the mission is still hunting ferocious beasts and collecting rare flowers and herbs."

Xu Jingming retracted the Ji Yao Jiyao Jiyao Lei Huan into his space ring, exited Lei Bao mode, and took the space ring from Jia Er's corpse.

His powerful spiritual force surged out, shattered the original spiritual imprint, and left his own.

Immediately, a space appeared in his perception, filled with many rare flowers and herbs.

Xu Jingming quickly counted: there were 34 tons of rare flowers and herbs below B-rank, and 0.5 tons above B-rank.

There were even three S-rank rare flowers and herbs.

"No wonder—he's a peak eighth-rank Master Zongshi; his space ring holds far more than a typical Yibanda Master."

Xu Jingming's eyes gleamed.

During his time in the Yer Secret Realm, he'd also seized rare flowers and herbs from many other adepts.

Adding Jia Er's haul, he now had 104.5 tons of rare flowers and herbs below B-rank!

He also had roughly 1.3 tons of A-rank and above rare flowers and herbs.

"Indeed, compared to painstakingly searching myself, stealing from others is much faster."

Xu Jingming couldn't help smiling.

The only pity was that the highest-rank rare flowers and herbs he'd found were only S-rank.

For him now, they weren't very useful.

Better to save them and exchange them for contribution points in the Great Xia Resource Vault for rarer resources.

"Only SS-rank or SSS-rank rare flowers and herbs would truly excite me—if I'm lucky enough to find an SSR-rank, even better.

If I can't find any, just stealing them works too—after all, the only ones I truly fear are those two eighth-rank upper-tier S-class adepts."

Gathering his thoughts, Xu Jingming obliterated Jia Er's corpse with Dou Tian Shen Lei.

He took off again toward his destination; as he arrived at the cluster of ferocious beasts and prepared to unleash his battle technique—

With a piercing sonic boom, a figure shot through the sky from afar toward him.

It was a woman clad in a blue battle suit, her figure curvaceous, her face exquisite.

Whirling winds surrounded her, granting her extreme flight speed.

Upon seeing the woman's face, Xu Jingming immediately retracted the Dou Tian Shen Lei he'd been ready to unleash.

This woman was Zhou Yu, Director of the Magic City Public Security Bureau.

Although Xu Jingming was fully encased in the black Yuan Jia, his face hidden,

his signature Thunder Dragon Wings still allowed Zhou Yu, flying at high speed, to recognize his identity.

"Xu Jingming?"

A look of surprise appeared on Zhou Yu's pale, delicate face.

She manipulated her wind ability, changed direction, and flew over to Xu Jingming, smiling warmly:

"What a coincidence, running into you here."

The entire Yell Secret Realm covers more than three million square kilometers.

Yet the number of ability-users who entered is only a little over three hundred.

Unless two people had agreed in advance to head to a specific location, the probability of them meeting would be extremely low.

"I didn't expect to run into you here either, Zhou Jie." Xu Jingming likewise broke into a smile.

Back when they had just arrived in Maple Leaf Country with Hearing Ling Shuang, Zhou Yu would occasionally go out with them.

The two of them could be considered friends.

"It's already been more than half a month since entering the Yell Secret Realm. How are your harvests on your side?"

Zhou Yu asked with a light laugh, then blinked her clear, big eyes and said generously:

"Collecting exotic flowers and herbs this time is very important for your Lei Ting Martial Hall.

If the quantity of exotic flowers and herbs on your side isn't enough, I can give you everything I have on me.

Of course, the final contribution value settlement still has to be counted toward me."

"I don't know whether my harvest counts as a lot or not."

Xu Jingming replied after a moment's thought, "I have a total of 105.8 tons of exotic flowers and herbs on me.

Aside from 1.3 tons of Grade B and above exotic flowers and herbs, the rest are all below Grade B."

"How much? 105.8 tons?!" Zhou Yu's eyes went wide as saucers, suspecting she had misheard.

Up until now, all the exotic flowers and herbs she had collected only amounted to 20 tons in total.

And that was after ambushing and robbing several foreign eighth-rank Zhongweida Grandmasters along the way.

Yet Xu Jingming's harvest was a full five times hers!

"This harvest is probably even more than that of an eighth-rank peak Grandmaster, isn't it?"

Zhou Yu marveled inwardly.

She merely assumed Xu Jingming had good luck and had found a greater quantity of exotic flowers and herbs, and didn't suspect any issue with his strength.

"You still have quite a lot of exotic flowers and herbs on hand, so I won't give you any for now.

When the day comes to gather and leave the secret realm, if you still don't have enough, you can ask me for them then."

Zhou Yu said softly, "Also, I heard from ability-users I ran into on the way that a new Hundred Flowers Valley has appeared in the southeast.

There are a lot of exotic flowers and herbs there, and strong ones from several countries are facing off against each other — none of them dares to make the first move.

I'm just about to head over there to take a look. Would you like to come along?"

Of course, the "running into" she spoke of naturally meant ambushing and robbing.
