Chapter 926: Transformation! Noah Civilization

Xu Jingming closed his eyes and reopened his system panel, focusing his attention on the mental attribute.

【Mental】: He (+)

【Spirit Refinement】: Lei Hai Visualization Technique (SSS-Rank, Sixth Layer)

"120,000 He of mental power?"

Seeing this number, Xu Jingming first froze, then burst into wild joy.

He knew his original mental power had been only 94,000 He.

This point-boost breakthrough had increased his mental power by a full 30,000 He!

"Indeed, the Lei Hai Visualization Technique undergoes a qualitative transformation after reaching the Sixth Layer."

This was recorded in the original scripture.

After entering the Sixth Layer of Spirit Refinement, a guardian spirit would emerge in the consciousness sea, and mental power would surge dramatically.

But Xu Jingming hadn't expected such a massive surge.

After all, the previous upgrade from Fourth to Fifth Layer had only granted 5,000 He of mental power.

Now it had sextupled!

After closing the system panel, Xu Jingming turned his perception inward to his consciousness sea.

Whoosh—whoosh—

The entire consciousness sea stretched vast and boundless, like a true ocean.

Lightning-tide waters, formed of mental power, churned and raged across the sea.

"The area of my consciousness sea has expanded more than threefold."

Xu Jingming silently marveled.

He felt this Spirit Refinement breakthrough had granted him greater enhancement than even a minor realm breakthrough.

"And then there's this moon."

Above the thunderous sea, a spherical object floated silently.

Composed of compressed mental power to its extreme, it emitted a faint luminescence.

Like a true moon.

Xu Jingming willed it, and the moon immediately began to move.

Up and down, left and right—it careened freely across the thunderous sea.

Each movement even triggered tidal surges within the mental power ocean.

"Good."

After manipulating it for a while, Xu Jingming nodded in satisfaction.

If the mental power within the ocean was like hundreds of millions of soldiers,

then the appearance of this moon was like a general emerging among them.

Through this moon, he could now control his mental power far more easily.

It was like an ancient emperor.

He could command armies, but needed immense effort to deploy them.

Now, he only needed to give the general one order—and all mental power obeyed.

"With this moon, my speed in releasing combat techniques will likely be much faster than before."

Xu Jingming opened his eyes and spread his right hand.

He willed it—and instantly, vast quantities of black chaotic Doushen Shenlei materialized out of thin air.

In the span of an instant, they coalesced into a pitch-black, liquid thunderball resembling a black hole.

Even at its core, the thunderball began gradually solidifying!

"Xu Jingming, has your ability proficiency increased?"

Su Qingli exclaimed beside him.

She had been with him throughout this time and knew his ability's release speed.

Previously, he could never have done this so fast.

"Something like that."

Xu Jingming smiled, dispersed the thunderball, and stood up.

"My Spirit Refinement breakthrough has made controlling my ability much easier than before.

My current ability proficiency is roughly at the threshold of 'Crystallization'."

"Good. With more practice, your ability proficiency will reach the Domain level."

Su Qingli nodded slightly.

She knew Xu Jingming's current domain capability came from the Body Strengthening Technique's bonus effect.

His innate ability proficiency had not yet reached Domain level.

Hearing this, Xu Jingming's expression turned expectant.

Once his ability proficiency reached Domain level, his thunder domain should undergo new changes...

After resting for over two hours in the underground space and bringing his state to peak, Xu Jingming and Su Qingli departed.

Flying swiftly, they soon reached the end of the fifth layer and entered the sixth.

The sixth layer of Po Xu Tower was far larger than the fifth.

Even so, Xu Jingming and Su Qingli reached its end in under half an hour.

Unlike the fifth layer's end, this place had no black passage—only a white passage signifying exit.

Around the passage, numerous eighth- and even ninth-rank ability users waited.

"There aren't enough people—the passage to the seventh level hasn't opened yet."

Xu Jingming sent a mental message to Su Qingli.

To avoid potential trouble, both he and Su Qingli had controlled their facial muscles to alter their appearances.

As long as they didn't use their abilities, others would find it hard to recognize them.

"There are no signs near the passage to this Broken Void Tower—how do they know they need thirty thousand sixth-rank psychics to open the passage?"

Su Qingli scanned the surroundings, her face filled with curiosity.

"They have Ermose." Xu Jingming smiled.

The Eye of Fate is an SSS-rank ability.

Although Ermose cannot enter the Broken Void Tower, it's normal for her to see certain things through those eyes.

"That makes sense."

Su Qingli suddenly understood, then asked:

"Thirty thousand sixth-ranks—this will take a long time to gather. Where do we go next?"

By seniority, Su Qingli was Xu Jingming's teacher.

By position, she, as the Hall Master, held a higher rank than Xu Jingming, the Magu City Patrol Inspector.

Yet she sought his opinion, clearly treating him as the center of attention.

She hadn't even realized this herself.

"Go hunt ferocious beasts."

Xu Jingming grinned, revealing a row of white teeth.

In terms of strength, he was now nearly equal to Su Qingli, if not quite her match.

But the number of powerful figures entering the Broken Void Tower was simply too great.

While waiting for sixth-rank psychics to arrive, this period offered him the perfect chance to overtake others and greatly boost his strength.

"I knew it. Then let's go."

A look of "as expected" appeared on Su Qingli's fair, delicate face.

Xu Jingming led the way, and the two swiftly flew away from the area.

Days passed one after another.

The Broken Void Tower had no distinction between day and night; Xu Jingming and Su Qingli tracked time through Eva.

Every twenty-four hours, they went to the endpoint to check the number of sixth-rank powerhouses who had arrived.

At first, only seventh-rank Masters and eighth-rank Grand Masters arrived.

By the third day, a few sixth-rank psychics began to arrive.

As time went on, the number of sixth-rank psychics increased steadily, soon surpassing twenty thousand and continuing to rise.

The number of demonic beasts in the sixth level of the Broken Void Tower was also plentiful; Xu Jingming could accumulate at least two hundred thousand psychic points every day!

On the sixth day since entering the sixth level.

The number of psychics above sixth rank at the endpoint had reached twenty-nine thousand, and was about to surpass thirty thousand at any moment!

So Xu Jingming stopped hunting ferocious beasts and stayed calmly at the endpoint, waiting for the passage to the seventh level to open.

"Just two hundred more sixth-ranks, and the seventh level will open."

At the endpoint of the sixth level, a woman with an ordinary face but a slender, alluring figure spoke.

"Mm, probably another one or two hours and it'll be enough."

A young man beside her, tall and with resolute, sharp eyes, replied.

These two were none other than Su Qingli and Xu Jingming, disguised with altered appearances.

Within a radius of more than ten kilometers around them, there were many other psychics.

Aside from those belonging to the same faction, everyone else remained wary of each other, unwilling to get too close.

Xu Jingming and Su Qingli's position was about three kilometers from the endpoint—not too near, not too far, in an unremarkable spot.

Just as they were communicating via mental transmission, suddenly, a deep hum echoed from the sky!

Xu Jingming instinctively looked up, and a majestic voice rang down from above:

"Number requirement met! Noah Civilization, 1031st Trial begins!"

The voice did not use the language of the Second Civilization Era, nor any language Xu Jingming knew.

Yet when the voice sounded, he somehow understood its meaning clearly.
