Chapter 967: Spatial Rupture Point! Father

“Tell me, how did you achieve that attack just now?”

Xu Jingming looked at Shima Taiyi, his eyes filled with intense interest.

This seventh-rank master didn’t look like he could threaten a ninth-rank powerhouse.

“It’s a laser gun.”

Shhh—

A pure white laser gun appeared in Shima Taiyi’s hand, respectfully offered forward.

“Laser gun?”

Xu Jingming took the laser gun and frowned, “Eva, can a laser gun have this kind of power?”

“Impossible.”

The little girl Eva’s holographic projection emerged from the smart bracer, tilting her head in confusion.

“Third-Civilization-era laser guns could only kill fourth-rank beasts.

Even the highest-grade laser guns from the Second Civilization could only threaten fifth-rank beasts—I’ve never seen a laser gun with this kind of power.”

Seeing this, Shima Taiyi immediately panicked and hurried to say:

“Master, I’m not lying!

I’ve used this gun to kill a ninth-rank Law Saint, one eighth-rank beast, and one eighth-rank peak Grand Master!”

Under the effect of the Slave Seal, Xu Jingming had become his greatest master, and he himself was his most loyal servant.

Now that his master doubted him, he naturally rushed to defend himself.

“Oh?”

Xu Jingming narrowed his eyes, “Eva, activate detection mode. Analyze the emission energy intensity of this gun.”

“Got it.”

A pale blue virtual beam shot from Eva and projected onto the laser gun.

At the same time, Xu Jingming pulled the trigger toward a distant tree.

Boom!!

A brilliant beam erupted from the barrel!

So fast that even Eva couldn’t react in time.

Only after the beam destroyed the distant tree did she cry out in shock:

“Emission energy intensity reached ninth-rank!

Speed reached the speed of light! This light-energy shockwave can kill most lower-tier ninth-rank psychics!

Major discovery! This is absolutely a major discovery!

If this laser gun can be mass-produced, it will completely change the balance of power between humans and beasts.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Eva dissolved into a streak of light and flowed into the laser gun, beginning to analyze its internal structure.

“Can a laser gun really have this kind of power?” Su Qingli’s face showed astonishment.

Xu Jingming also understood the significance of this laser gun and asked immediately, “Where did you get this gun?”

“I found it beside a special space,” Shima Taiyi replied respectfully.

“Special space?”

Xu Jingming’s eyes lit up, “Take us there.”

“Yes, Master.”

With that, Shima Taiyi immediately led the way ahead.

But his speed was far too slow, so after Xu Jingming recalled the Iron Thread Lotus,

he grabbed Shima Taiyi’s neck with one hand and flew at full speed with him.

Su Qingli, flying beside them, couldn’t help feeling amused.

Xu Jingming’s action was like picking up a dog.

The kicker was, the man actually looked like a dog, wearing a pleading smile on his face...

In Thunder State, Xu Jingming’s flight speed reached four times the speed of sound!

Thus, only ten minutes later, they arrived at the location Shima Taiyi described.

Boom—

Crackling—

Compared to other areas, the lightning falling in this region was denser and thicker.

Thunder roared continuously across the entire zone—any single bolt could instantly kill a sixth-rank psychic!

Of course, it had no effect on Xu Jingming and Su Qingli.

Even when lightning struck Xu Jingming, it felt like a massage.

“Master, I found this laser gun right here.”

Under Shima Taiyi’s guidance, Xu Jingming and Su Qingli arrived at the area where lightning struck most densely.

No plants could survive here; the ground was no longer brown soil but glowed with a metallic platinum sheen.

At the center of this region was a pit roughly fifty meters in diameter.

Around the pit’s edge lay scattered fragments of metal debris.

At the pit’s very center was a black vortex.

But the vortex wasn’t made of water—it was composed of dense spatial energy!

As the spatial vortex rotated, occasional metal fragments were spewed out from within.

“Is this... the spatial rupture point of the Void-Piercing Tower?”

Xu Jingming stared at the vortex in surprise.

Because Ling Shuang was a spatial psychic, he had picked up some knowledge about space.

A spatial rupture point is a passage connecting the real world to the Spatial Chaos Layer.

Stable space could never produce such a rupture point.

But the Void-Piercing Tower, pulled from the Spatial Chaos Layer by the Xinhuo World, clearly didn’t belong to stable space.

That meant, through this passage, one could enter the Spatial Chaos Layer.

Theoretically, one might even find Ling Shuang within it.

But due to spatial dislocation in the Spatial Chaos Layer—not continuous—it was nearly impossible to encounter Ling Shuang.

“Spatial dislocation in the Spatial Chaos Layer can drift objects tens of thousands of miles away. It’s not impossible for a laser gun like this to appear.”

Su Qingli nodded slightly and smiled,

“This laser gun might be alien technology from dozens of light-years away, accidentally carried here through the Spatial Chaos Layer.”

“Professor Su, you’re right—this laser gun really is alien technology!”

At that moment, Eva’s holographic projection emerged from the laser gun, her cute face glowing with excitement:

“I’ve analyzed the material of this gun—it doesn’t match any metal from Blue Planet or the Xinhuo World.

The core energy compression and launch mechanism inside is beyond even my ability to analyze; forcibly attempting it risks triggering a self-destruction!”

“This level of weaponry could never be manufactured by Blue Planet!”

“Alien technology...” Xu Jingming’s eyes gleamed.

The strongest beings already possess the ability to survive in outer space.

Had it not been for that barrier, Blue Planet might have already entered the interstellar age.

But the appearance of this laser gun confirmed the theory of alien civilizations.

Puff—

The spatial rupture point spat out again, a flood of metal debris cascading onto the ground.

Su Qingli, who had been smiling, suddenly froze, her fair face filled with disbelief.

“What’s wrong?” Xu Jingming, sensing the anomaly, asked in confusion.

“I just felt... my father’s aura!”

Su Qingli’s expression was dazed as she murmured.

“You mean Senior Su Tianrui?”

Xu Jingming’s face showed surprise.

Su Tianrui!

Former head of the Thunder Temple, possessing an S-class lightning psychic ability, ranked at ninth-rank peak!

Some even believed he could challenge the strongest.

Yet such a powerful figure vanished four years ago and has never been heard from since.

Who would have thought his aura would be sensed here?
