Chapter 916: Allocate Martial Techniques! The Void Temple
The golden SSR-grade "Starlight Thunder Gang " martial seal became transparent like crystal after use.
Xu Jingming applied the remaining two purple martial seals to his forehead in the same manner.
These two martial techniques were derived from Lei Shen's movement technique "Flash Thunder Evading Method" and another SSS-grade defensive technique "Azure Thunder Shield."
Unlike Starlight Thunder Gang, these two techniques required no domain.
Thus, after using the seals, Xu Jingming immediately began allocating ability points.
Ability points -35, 00
Flash Thunder Evading Method → Flash Thunder Evading Method (Beginner)
Ability points -40, 00
Azure Thunder Shield → Azure Thunder Shield (Beginner)
"Instant point allocation—this is the system's dominance."
Sensing the vast new knowledge in his mind and the two techniques ready to be unleashed at any moment.
A smile crept onto Xu Jingming's face as he turned to Su Qingli and Ling Shuang:
"Teacher Su, Sister Shuang, I'm heading to the training ground to test these techniques—want to come along?"
"Test techniques?"
Su Qingli blinked, then asked instinctively: "What techniques?"
"Flash Thunder Evading Method," Xu Jingming replied with a grin.
"You've already learned Flash Thunder Evading Method?"
Su Qingli's almond eyes widened in shock; Ling Shuang beside her looked equally stunned.
"Yes, perhaps because I received Lei Shen's legacy, this technique isn't too difficult for me."
Xu Jingming grinned.
Though he'd already shown enough absurdity, these were still two SSS-grade techniques.
Even a ninth-rank Law Saint would need half a year to a full year to master them.
If he learned both instantly, it would seem too abnormal—better to hide one for now.
After all, this world still had Emos, the master with the Eye of Fate.
She didn't detect anything this time, but who could guarantee she wouldn't notice something next time?
"This..."
Su Qingli and Ling Shuang exchanged glances, both seeing astonishment in each other's eyes.
Even with Lei Shen's legacy, learning it in the blink of an eye—wasn't that too terrifying an aptitude?
"Then let's go. I want to see if you've truly learned it."
Su Qingli still refused to believe it, rising from the sofa.
Ling Shuang glided forward with light steps, her long, shapely legs moving gracefully as she followed behind with a smile, heading toward the open-air training ground.
Though she too found it implausible.
But he was her man.
He could turn every impossibility into possibility...
Zzzzz~
Deep within the Void Temple, space rippled.
The Grand Hierophant Zhang Hengyang teleported in, bowing respectfully to the elder before him:
"Master, I've traced the information on the Ancestor's relic.
The relic is on a Blue Star native who entered our Flame Seed World today.
Her name is Ling Shuang; the relic she possesses is the Ancestor's 'Nine Kites Hairpin.'"
"Nine Kites Hairpin? That was the elemental weapon Teacher favored most before becoming an Ultimate."
The elder's voice carried a faint trace of nostalgia, then he asked: "What ability does she possess?"
The elder's name was Ximan, founder of the Void Temple.
He was also the senior disciple of the Void God of the Second Civilization Era, who had accompanied him since before the Void God reached Ultimate status.
Hearing the elder's question, Grand Hierophant Zhang Hengyang's eyes flickered slightly, yet he answered truthfully:
"Space-type ability, rated S-class."
"S-class?!"
Ximan's eyes blazed with brilliant light; his aged face lit up with overwhelming joy:
"Good, good, good—the heavens have been kind to me.
At last, they've sent me an S-class space-type!
Where is she now? I must meet her personally."
Among all abilities, space-type ones were among the rarest.
S-class space-type abilities were rarer still.
Since the Flame Seed World awakened a century ago, no S-class space-type had ever appeared.
Now, finally, one had surfaced—and she bore the Ancestor's relic. As the Void God's senior disciple, how could he not be moved?
"She is currently on the No. 3 Floating Island of the Flame Seed Temple," Grand Hierophant Zhang Hengyang replied.
"No. 3 Floating Island."
Ximan frowned. "Why is she there?"
Even though he dwelled deep within the Void Temple and rarely paid attention to outside affairs, he knew the significance of the No. 3 Floating Island.
Only the supreme elites of the Flame Seed Temple were permitted to reside there.
"It's because of her partner."
Zhang Hengyang replied respectfully, "Her partner is named Xu Jingming. Half an hour ago, he passed the Flame Seed Temple's rank certification and received Aurora-level access.
His lightning-type ability must have reached SSS-class, which granted him residency on the No. 3 Floating Island."
"Partner? Then that's fine."
Ximan relaxed slightly.
As long as it wasn't Ling Shuang herself, it wouldn't be too troublesome to request her from the Flame Seed Temple.
"Still, I didn't expect a Blue Star native to awaken an SSS-class ability."
Ximan's expression turned contemplative, then he said:
"Since she's connected to the Flame Seed Temple's Aurora-level, we shouldn't go rashly.
I'll contact Emos—have her arrange it for us. You'll accompany me later."
As he spoke, Ximan rose from the ground.
His once-ancient visage rapidly rejuvenated as if reversing time.
In an instant, he transformed into a man in his forties.
Though his hair remained silver, his entire demeanor was utterly renewed—sharp as an eagle.
In the Second Civilization Era, he had already been a peak ninth-rank warrior.
Had there been no accident, he might have challenged the Ultimate realm.
But unfortunately, the Molten Beast descended, bringing apocalypse.
He barely survived, yet suffered grievous injuries in battle that barred him from further advancement.
He lived only because his teacher included him in the Fireseed Project.
Now, however, he was nearing the end of his life—even celestial treasures could not save him.
Thus, he remained deep within the temple, resting quietly, minimizing energy consumption to prolong his dwindling vitality.
"Hengyang, if all goes well, she will become your junior sister," Ximan smiled.
He was not afraid of death—he feared dying before passing on his teacher's legacy.
After all, most of his teacher's space-type techniques required an S-class space-type ability.
Zhang Hengyang possessed only an A-class ability; Ling Shuang's arrival gave him hope for the legacy's continuation.
"Yes, Master," Zhang Hengyang bowed respectfully.
"Let's go—first, find Emos."
Ximan stepped forward; space rippled violently, and the two vanished instantly.
