Chapter 929

Across the endless ice plain, cold winds howled and snowflakes fell incessantly like goose feathers.

Xu Jingming and Su Qingli, two phantom figures in black and blue, sped through the sky, stirring up swirling snow.

The space of the seventh level of the Breakthrough Tower was far larger than they had imagined.

They had flown at full speed for over half an hour and still had not reached the edge of this world.

Even stranger was that along the way, besides encountering human psychics, they had seen not a single living creature.

“Could it be that there are no beast monsters in the seventh level?”

Xu Jingming frowned.

Last time he spent points on the Spirit Refinement Art, he nearly exhausted his psychic points.

Fortunately, he had slain many beast monsters in the sixth level and rebuilt his psychic points to 1.31 million.

He had a feeling his next point upgrade was not far off.

If there were no beast monsters to kill in the seventh level, it would waste him a lot of time.

“Jingming, something’s off ahead.”

At that moment, Su Qingli suddenly halted, whispering softly.

“Oh?”

Xu Jingming also stopped flying and gazed ahead.

Several hundred meters ahead lay a vast expanse of glaciers.

At first glance, they looked no different from the glaciers they had passed.

Yet he faintly sensed something unnatural.

Hum—

Instantly, black lightning surged into Xu Jingming’s cold, sharply defined eyes.

Mind Net!

A Class-SS perception technique.

As soon as he activated it, he immediately sensed something wrong.

The glaciers ahead were emitting psychic energy fluctuations!

Though faint, the psychic energy was undeniably real.

“Why would a glacier emit psychic energy?” Xu Jingming was stunned.

This had exceeded his understanding.

“I don’t know.”

Su Qingli’s expression turned grave; faint blue lightning swirled around her slender frame.

Just as she was about to ask Xu Jingming whether to detour, a tremendous sound erupted ahead.

Boom—Boom—Boom!

An avalanche roared down as vast piles of snow rolled like waves from the glaciers.

At the very center of the glacier range, a glacier stood up!

“Who dares invade my territory!”

Terrifying psychic energy surged outward, as if rising from the abyss.

The previously faint psychic energy detected by Xu Jingming’s Mind Net surged violently, becoming terrifying—equal to that of a ninth-rank expert!

Simultaneously, the glacier before them sprouted limbs, growing legs and arms each dozens of meters long.

A glacier giant over two hundred meters tall appeared before Xu Jingming and Su Qingli.

“This is… an elemental giant?” Xu Jingming stared in astonishment.

Most psychic users who control elemental powers can summon one.

Even now, if he wished, he could form a thunder giant over a hundred meters tall.

But such elemental giants are too clumsy; unless on the frontlines against monstrous beasts, they serve little purpose.

These elemental giants require a psychic user to control them to move.

Yet this glacier giant moved on its own—no psychic user was secretly channeling power.

“Eva, what’s going on? Have you ever seen this before?” Xu Jingming asked, puzzled.

“Never,” Eva replied, equally baffled.

“If so, let Su Teacher handle this glacier giant.”

After a brief pause, Xu Jingming smiled.

“Me?”

Su Qingli blinked, doubting her ears, and retorted irritably:

“What? Now that your strength has grown, you dare order your own teacher around?”

“Impossible.”

Xu Jingming chuckled, “Didn’t you just say a few days ago that I should guide you on Thunder God Descent? This is perfect.”

The glacier giant’s aura was roughly at the lower ninth rank—Su Qingli could handle it alone easily.

“Thunder God Descent?”

Su Qingli thought back and realized she had indeed said that—but something felt off.

It felt as if Xu Jingming were the teacher, and she the student.

“Fine, leave it to me. Observe how I release the technique.”

She shook her head, not dwelling on it.

A Class-S Jade Pure Divine Thunder exploded—suddenly, a blue thunder phantom coalesced above her head.

“Thunder Dragon Technique!”

With a sharp cry, a thunder dragon hundreds of meters long surged forth, slamming toward the glacier giant.

Undeniably, Su Qingli’s figure was slender and captivating.

Even in battle, she exuded a unique beauty.

Xu Jingming seized the chance to carefully observe Su Qingli’s Thunder God Descent.

He had already leveled this SSS-class technique to Master proficiency; guiding Su Qingli, who had only Beginner proficiency, was effortless.

Su Qingli wielded the Class-S Thunder psychic ability, Jade Pure Divine Thunder—Xu Jingming expected her to swiftly destroy the glacier giant.

Yet after over ten minutes of fighting, the battle remained deadlocked.

“The glacier giant is continuously absorbing ice elements from the air.”

“This is its domain; destroying it will be difficult.”

Xu Jingming frowned slightly.

It was similar to the Ninth-Rank Martial Saint’s Immortal Body—until all the immortal matter was completely worn away, it could not be killed.

Though they could simply bypass the glacier giant at their current speed,

it was the only living thing they’d encountered besides human psychics after flying for over half an hour—they couldn’t afford to abandon it.

Perhaps slaying this glacier giant would yield unexpected rewards.

“I’ve observed enough of Su Teacher’s Thunder God Descent. I’ll join in.”

Crackling—

Dark Chaotic Divine Thunder curled around Xu Jingming’s body.

He instantly entered Thunderstorm State—his muscular frame, over three meters tall, flanked by the slowly rotating Supreme Thunder Ring behind him.

Like a demonic god descending upon the world, he radiated a terrifying, heart-stopping aura.

“Jingming?”

Su Qingli sensed the aura and was startled.

In the sixth level, the strongest monsters had been only seventh rank.

She had never seen Xu Jingming unleash his full power after his Spirit Refinement breakthrough.

Now, seeing it, even she felt a lethal threat!

“Is Jingming’s strength already stronger than mine?”

Su Qingli thought silently.

At the same moment, Xu Jingming moved!

His body blurred—he gripped his spear and shot forward like a bolt of black lightning toward the glacier giant.

“Weak human, how dare you challenge my authority!”

The eighth-rank aura radiating from Xu Jingming enraged the glacier giant.

A terrifying blizzard erupted instantly, dropping the temperature to minus two hundred degrees Celsius!

This was an extreme cold—so intense it slowed molecular motion.

“Jingming, be careful.”

Though she trusted his strength, Su Qingli couldn’t help calling out a warning.
