Chapter 964: SSR-Level Body Strengthening Art! Spirit Cat Supple Body!

Swish, swish, swish......

As Xu Jingming broke through his Body Strengthening Art, Qiao Lin and the other three were flying rapidly through the sky.

The atmosphere among the four was grim.

All their space rings had been seized—not only had their efforts over the past few days been wasted, but even their accumulated reserves outside the Breakthrough Tower had been completely looted.

"Lady Qiao, what should we do next?" Lady Xina couldn't help asking.

"First, find other psychics. Once we seize four space rings, we'll go to Lord Allen."

Qiao Lin gritted her teeth, "Have Lord Allen intervene and deal with Xu Jingming!"

They looked utterly wretched now, with charred traces of Lei Ting still lingering on each of their bodies.

They couldn't appear before Lord Allen in such a state.

"Understood!" Lady Xina and the others immediately brightened.

Xu Jingming was merely an eighth-rank mid-tier SSS-level psychic; though strong, he was nowhere near as powerful as Lord Allen, who was also SSS-level but at eighth-rank peak!

With Lord Allen's intervention, Xu Jingming would surely be defeated!

And they could reclaim their own space rings.

Thinking of this, their flight speed increased considerably...

On the other side, after completing his Body Strengthening Art breakthrough, Xu Jingming shared all the intelligence gathered from Qiao Lin with Su Qingli.

"Various elemental essences and divine bloods capable of elevating psychic levels to SS-grade."

"Also, a vast quantity of SSR-grade pills, rare flowers and herbs can be exchanged—what is this Noah Civilization's origin, to possess such resources?"

Unsurprisingly, Su Qingli, upon receiving this intelligence, also wore an expression of shock.

"According to records, the history before the First Civilization lasted over five thousand years without any Yuan Energy appearing—could this Noah Civilization originate from an even earlier era?"

Eva was utterly baffled.

As an intelligent lifeform, her knowledge storage was vast as the ocean.

Yet even some of the mundane materials casually produced by the Noah Civilization had shattered her worldview.

"It might not be from a previous civilization at all, but from beyond the stars," Xu Jingming added with a smile.

"Oh! That's possible!"

Eva's eyes lit up, "The Ember World already exists within the spatial chaos."

The location of the spatial chaos is offset from the real world; no one knows what might drift in."

"If this Noah Civilization truly comes from outer space, its value would be immense!"

Eva's expression was excited; Xu Jingming's face also showed anticipation.

The membrane beyond Blue Star's surface still has no known origin—if this Noah Civilization is extraterrestrial,

We might finally gain some clues.

"Jingming, where should we go now? Keep hunting ferocious beasts?"

Su Qingli's crimson lips moved slightly as she asked softly.

According to the information Xu Jingming had just shared, the ferocious beast gathering site was not far—roughly three hundred kilometers away.

"Yes, but no need to rush."

"We'll search as we go. With Iron Thread Lotus helping us, we should acquire plenty of Void Stones."

Xu Jingming smiled.

He had already sorted through the space rings of Qiao Lin and the others.

Besides rare flowers, herbs, pills, and Wu Yin, there were a total of 930,000 Void Stones.

Combined with the over a million he already had, the total reached a staggering 2,030,000 Void Stones!

Just one million more Void Stones would allow him to exchange for an SSR-grade resource.

If fortune favored them and they found two million Void Stones, they could directly exchange for a resource capable of transforming a psychic's ability to SS-grade!

"Also, I need to use one Wu Yin. Su Laoshi, please guard me."

"Alright."

A cyan Lei Ting flickered as Su Qingli stood tall, having activated her perception combat technique, Heart Net; her beautiful eyes faintly glowed with lightning.

Xu Jingming then took from his space ring the Body Strengthening Art Wu Yin obtained from Qiao Lin.

According to Qiao Lin's description, this SSR-grade Body Strengthening Art was called "Spirit Cat Supple Body"—its enhancement to physical defense was not particularly strong, roughly equivalent to an SSS-grade Body Strengthening Art.

But it offered exceptional strengthening to the internal organs and meridians, greatly increasing bodily flexibility, making it ideal for female psychics.

As he pressed the Wu Yin to his forehead, a flood of information poured into his mind.

It took nearly three minutes before Xu Jingming finished reading and preliminarily understood all the content.

"This 'Spirit Cat Supple Body' truly is only suitable for female psychics."

Xu Jingming exhaled softly as he removed the Wu Yin from his forehead.

There are fundamental differences between male and female body structures; while most Body Strengthening Arts make no distinction, some are specifically designed for one gender.

This SSR-grade "Spirit Cat Supple Body" belonged to the latter—only suitable for female cultivation.

Of course, males could forcibly practice it, but they would end up with a distorted, unnatural form.

"Still, it's an SSR-grade Body Strengthening Art—even if designed for female psychics, I can still extract much useful knowledge from it."

Xu Jingming, who had used the system to raise his Body Strengthening Art from S-grade all the way to SSS-grade, was no longer the novice he once was.

In terms of Body Strengthening Art research alone, he could unquestionably be called a master!

Even without the system, he could now easily create an S-grade Body Strengthening Art.

An SS-grade one would take only a few days; even an SSS-grade was within reach.

Ever since obtaining the essence blood of the Molten Colossus, he had already developed a general direction for improving and evolving his own Body Strengthening Art.

Right now, this SSR-level body-strengthening art is needed to fill in the specific details; once enough knowledge is accumulated, the system can directly allocate points!

After all, using someone else's body-strengthening art is nowhere near as fast as creating your own.

"Su Laoshi, take this Wu Yin—you can try practicing it when you have time."

Xu Jingming casually tossed the Wu Yin to Su Qingli.

This body-strengthening art is useless to him, but it's highly valuable for women like Su Qingli.

"What type of Wu Yin is this?" Su Qingli asked, her expression puzzled.

"'Spiritual Cat's Light and Soft Body,' an SSR-level body-strengthening art I obtained from Qiao Lin—it only works for women," Xu Jingming explained.

"SSR-level body-strengthening art?"

Su Qingli's eyes widened in astonishment. "We have only two SSR-level body-strengthening arts in all of Da Xia—and you've just acquired another one."

Since she follows the elemental master path, she hasn't paid much attention to body-strengthening.

The body-strengthening art she practices is only SS-level, and not particularly profound.

But that doesn't stop her from knowing how rare SSR-level body-strengthening arts are.

"Just lucky," Xu Jingming smiled.

It's only because Qiao Lin's background isn't ordinary, and she was overly confident in the space ring forged from Moer metal.

Otherwise, she would never have carried a body-strengthening art of this level on her person.
