Chapter 984: Generational Order Is Confused! Absorbing Supreme God Blood!

~7 min read 1,381 words

On the 10th floor of the Breakthrough Tower, in a lush, verdant forest.

The space rippled, and a tall young man and a slender woman stepped out from the void.

"With space beast bones, we can indeed avoid many troubles."

Su Qingli stepped onto the ground and exhaled in relief.

Leo is a ninth-rank peak expert; if he caught us, things would become far more troublesome.

"This is all thanks to the Tianming Sect," Xu Jingming smiled.

Space-type ferocious beasts are as rare as space-type psychics.

Human psychics find it nearly impossible to kill space-type ferocious beasts, let alone obtain their special parts that condense space energy.

These two space beast bones—I could never have obtained them without the Tianming Sect.

"Eva, scan the surrounding environment."

Xu Jingming, having sensed the surroundings with his spiritual force, murmured.

"We're now on the 10th floor of the Breakthrough Tower. Gravity here is thirty times that of Blue Star. Atmospheric oxygen content..."

Eva swiftly reported, having gathered all the information.

Unlike the 9th floor, the 10th floor has no special elements.

Aside from gravity being thirty times that of Blue Star, the environment is much like Blue Star's wilderness zone.

"Judging by the environment, this floor likely has ferocious beasts too, but right now the priority is distributing resources."

Xu Jingming waved his right hand and released Su Tianrui from his space ring.

Crackling—

A massive crimson lightning sphere, two hundred meters in diameter, appeared out of thin air above them.

The naturally radiating crimson lightning swiftly reduced the surrounding forest to ash.

This was the destructive power of a ninth-rank peak Law Saint—even with damaged spiritual force, it was far beyond what ordinary people could endure.

"Looks like you've successfully acquired the resources."

Su Tianrui, formed from crimson lightning, smiled.

"We encountered some trouble when exchanging resources, but it worked out."

Xu Jingming grinned and pulled out the resources he had just taken from his space ring.

Essence of Thunder Element, Supreme God Blood (Dragon), Holy Origin Pills, Tianyuan Pills, and Nourish Soul Pills.

Five items total, with the Essence of Thunder Element and Supreme God Blood appearing the most extraordinary.

"Senior Su, these Nourish Soul Pills are for you—after consuming them, your spiritual force should recover considerably."

"As for this Essence of Thunder Element, since there's only one..."

Xu Jingming did not finish his sentence.

In his own heart, he naturally wanted to give this Essence of Thunder Element directly to his teacher, Su Qingli.

But those tens of millions of Void Stones were obtained from Su Tianrui—he still needed to hear the man's opinion.

"Xiao Li is my daughter. Give her the Essence of Thunder Element. I only need the Nourish Soul Pills," Su Tianrui said without hesitation, smiling.

"Dad, if your psychic ability evolves to SS-rank, you might even advance further!" Su Qingli hurriedly said.

"Advance further?"

Su Tianrui's eyes blazed with brilliant light, his tone brimming with absolute confidence:

"I've already touched the edge of the Supreme realm! As long as I fully recover, I won't even need my psychic ability to evolve—I will break through to the Supreme realm within two years!"

Hearing this, Xu Jingming was secretly startled.

Supreme realm!

That was the pinnacle of all psychics!

Across all three human civilizations—first, second, and third—there had been fewer than thirty Supreme realm experts in total.

Yet now Su Tianrui actually believed he could break through!

'No wonder he was the prodigy of his time—after enduring life and death, he can still advance further,' Xu Jingming silently praised.

Of course, for him, as long as he had enough psychic points, breaking through to the Supreme realm was merely a matter of adding a point.

"Besides, without Xiao Li coming to find you..."

"I could never have escaped the Void Chaos Layer. No matter how many Void Stones I had, they'd be useless."

"This Thunder psychic ability is your destiny."

Su Tianrui smiled.

"Alright then, I'll take this Essence of Thunder Element for now. I'll give it to you once we get the second one."

Su Qingli, well aware of her father's nature, nodded without further hesitation.

"That's the spirit."

Su Tianrui laughed heartily, then turned to Xu Jingming:

"Xiao Li fell into a hallucination, then the Void Stones were exposed.

We were pressed for time the whole way—I never had a chance to thank you until now."

"Thank you for your help. Otherwise, I'd still be trapped."

"If you ever need anything from me in the future, just say the word—I won't refuse."

As he spoke, Su Tianrui's face bore an unprecedented seriousness, even reverence.

In truth, it was exactly that.

Without Xu Jingming, he would have surely perished in the Void Chaos Layer.

A life-saving debt does not care about rank or generational hierarchy.

Xu Jingming was also taken aback, not expecting Su Tianrui to be so sincere; he quickly said:

"Senior Su, you're too humble—this is merely my duty."

"Given the danger of the spatial turbulence, this is far more than just 'doing one's duty.'"

Su Tianrui shook his head and smiled: "If you don't mind, Xu brother, we can address each other as brothers—you can call me Big Brother from now on."

Upon hearing this, Xu Jingming froze for a moment.

Well, well!

This is clearly the move of turning your father-in-law into a brother!

Su Qingli was dumbfounded, her lovely face flushing slightly; she hurriedly said:

"Dad! Jingming is my student."

"I am your disciple, so by seniority he is your disciple's disciple—how can we become sworn brothers?"

If this were truly to happen, the seniority order would be completely thrown into chaos!

"No no, Senior Su, let's just interact normally," Xu Jingming quickly urged.

He had finally figured it out.

Senior Su Tianrui had a bold, unconventional personality.

Then again, if he weren't like this, Hu Jinyu could never have sidelined him behind his back.

"That does make sense. Then, Xu brother, if you ever need anything, just give the order—I'll go test the effects of this Nourishing Soul Pill right now!"

Su Tianrui seemed completely unfazed; he laughed heartily and immediately tossed the Nourishing Soul Pill into his mouth.

Crackling—

Crimson lightning surged, and the porcelain bottle containing the pill was instantly vaporized by the lightning.

The pill inside melted as well, soaking into the crimson lightning.

Boom!!

Su Tianrui's previously sluggish spiritual force rose visibly before their eyes!

"It's working!"

Su Tianrui's eyes lit up; he hurriedly said: "I'm about to fall into a deep sleep—quickly put me inside your Spatial Ring!"

"Congratulations, Senior Su—I hope you awaken again at your peak."

Xu Jingming wasn't surprised; he directly placed Su Tianrui's massive lightning sphere into his Spatial Ring.

Spiritual force injuries are extremely hard to heal, especially for someone like Su Tianrui—a ninth-rank peak Law Saint with naturally powerful spiritual force.

Even with an SSR-grade Nourishing Soul Pill, it would likely take one or two months to fully recover.

"Teacher Su, it's just the two of us now—who goes first?"

Xu Jingming smiled at Su Qingli.

"You go first—I'll guard you," Su Qingli gently tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and said softly.

"Alright."

Xu Jingming nodded and brought the glass vial containing the Supreme Divine Blood before his eyes.

The blood inside the vial was scarce—less than thirty milliliters.

Yet he could feel the astonishing pull emanating from it!

This pull was far stronger than the one he had felt when absorbing the Dragon Divine Blood before!

"Eva, in your database, has anyone ever gained two abilities?"

Xu Jingming stared at the vial, his eyes slightly gleaming.

"No, never."

The holographic little girl Eva shook her head, then explained: "But for high-rank ability users, the distinctions between ability types have already blurred."

A Law Saint's powerful spiritual force can essentially be regarded as possessing a corresponding spiritual ability."

For instance, you yourself, as an S-rank, already have a physique no weaker than a typical Enhancement-type S-rank ability user."

And then there's Catherine's SS-rank ability, 'Holy Angel.'"

Even though it's one ability, it simultaneously grants both Enhancement and Elemental traits."

"Good—then let's see what happens when I absorb this Divine Blood—can I gain a second ability?"

Pulling the stopper, Xu Jingming drank the entire Divine Blood in one gulp.
