Open up and break into another world

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! … …

The battle between Xu Ming and Li Xiujie continued relentlessly.

Their clash was on the level of Saints; even top-tier Quasi-Saints like the Cloud Sovereign, the Lord of the Temple of Time and Space, and the Realm Lord of the Void Sky were completely unable to interfere.

The chasm between Quasi-Saints and Saints was almost impossible to cross.

Only someone like Xu Ming, a Quasi-Saint of the Heart Force Stream who also possessed a Chaos Divine Weapon, could barely manage to bridge this gap.

… …

Whoosh!

The light on the Saint Lord statue grew increasingly dazzling.

The powerful force of faith gradually began to control the space-time of Saint Emperor City and even the entire Thunder Continent!

“Humph!”

“This is a big problem!”

The Saint Emperor City Lord's face was ashen, devoid of color.

If he could control the city-protecting formation, the Saint Emperor City Lord would possess the battle strength of a Saint; but now, unable to control the formation, the Saint Emperor City Lord was just an ordinary Quasi-Saint…

An ordinary Quasi-Saint was almost useless on the battlefield at this time!

Destroy the Saint Lord statue?—The Saint Emperor City Lord couldn't do it!

Help Xu Ming deal with Li Xiujie?—The Saint Emperor City Lord couldn't do it either!

Even taking Yin Ran into his world ring to reduce the pressure on Xu Ming… the Saint Emperor City Lord couldn't do it!

On this battlefield, the Saint Emperor City Lord was worthless!

In fact, it wasn't just the Saint Emperor City Lord; all the other Quasi-Saints, such as the Cloud Sovereign and the Lord of the Temple of Time and Space, were also worthless!

At this time, the battlefield belonged only to Xu Ming!

“I regret it!” In his heart, the Saint Emperor City Lord was filled with regret.

If he had known that such a thing would happen, the Saint Emperor City Lord would never have held any marriage recruitment; that way, he wouldn't have given Li Xiujie and the Saint Lord an opportunity to exploit.

However, there was no “if only” in the world!

Now that things had come to this, the Saint Emperor City Lord could only pray, pray that Xu Ming could defeat Li Xiujie and destroy the Saint Lord statue in time!

Otherwise… once the Saint Lord statue was completely erected, the entire Thunder Continent would completely fall under the Saint Lord’s control!

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! … …

One terrifying collision after another!

With each collision, Li Xiujie was slightly at a disadvantage.

After repeated collisions, Li Xiujie’s disadvantage grew larger and larger.

However, Xu Ming didn't show the slightest hint of excitement.

Because, whether it was Xu Ming or the great powers like the Cloud Sovereign and the Saint Emperor City Lord, they all realized—this couldn't continue!

If they continued to fight like this, perhaps before they could kill Li Xiujie, the Saint Lord would already have descended!

Once the Saint Lord descended, the entire Thunder Continent would instantly fall into the Saint Lord's control!

“Xu Ming!” Suddenly, the Realm Lord of the Void Sky shouted, “We can’t let Li Xiujie hold us back any longer! If we continue to delay, the Saint Lord will descend!”

Couldn't let him hold them back any longer?

Didn't Xu Ming know that?

However, Li Xiujie had tightly grasped Xu Ming's weakness, using Yin Ran to hold Xu Ming back—what could Xu Ming do?

“Xu Ming!” The Godslayer Quasi-Saint also said, “Continuing to delay will inevitably lead to defeat! It’s time for you to make a choice!”

A choice?

Xu Ming was slightly stunned: “Choose what?”

The Godslayer Quasi-Saint said expressionlessly: “Two choices—either you erupt with your full power, quickly kill Li Xiujie, and then destroy the Saint Lord statue! Or, you directly abandon Li Xiujie and ignore him, and first destroy the Saint Lord statue!”

“Hmm?” Xu Ming's expression turned cold, “What about Yin Ran?”

Xu Ming was unable to erupt with his full power because he had to spare energy to protect Yin Ran!

Once he erupted with his full power, it would mean giving up on Yin Ran!

And abandoning Li Xiujie and ignoring him to directly destroy the Saint Lord statue; frankly speaking, it was also giving up on Yin Ran!

Therefore, the “two choices” that the Godslayer Quasi-Saint spoke of were actually “one choice”!

That was—give up on Yin Ran!

The Godslayer Quasi-Saint continued: “We will join hands and protect Yin Ran!”

“You protect Yin Ran?” Xu Ming laughed, “You don’t even have the power to protect yourselves, and you want to protect Yin Ran? Once Li Xiujie goes crazy and attacks Yin Ran with all his might, who can protect her?”

“This…” The Lord of the Temple of Time and Space, the Realm Lord of the Void Sky, and the others were all speechless.

How could they not know what Xu Ming was saying?

However, the reason they said these words was actually hoping… that Xu Ming could give up on Yin Ran!

Only by giving up on Yin Ran could they protect the Thunder Continent!

It was also the only way to protect the Thunder Continent!

The Godslayer Quasi-Saint looked at Xu Ming solemnly and said: “Xu Ming, for the Divine Domain!”

The Lord of the Temple of Time and Space, the Realm Lord of the Void Sky, the Pavilion Lord of Myriad Objects, and the other great powers, all looked at Xu Ming solemnly and imploringly: “For the Divine Domain!”

“Jie jie jie jie…” Li Xiujie’s strange laughter rang out, “Right, right, right! Well said! Too well said! For the Divine Domain!—Xu Ming, quickly make a choice for the Divine Domain! As long as you give up on Yin Ran, you can protect the Thunder Continent, jie jie jie jie…”

The reason Li Xiujie said this was entirely a trick!

He knew that Xu Ming wouldn't give up on Yin Ran, so he deliberately provoked Xu Ming!

“For the Divine Domain?” Xu Ming couldn't help but laugh, “For the Divine Domain, give up on Yin Ran?”

“It’s also for yourself!” The Godslayer Quasi-Saint quickly said, “If you don’t make a choice as soon as possible, once the Saint Lord descends, not only will the Thunder Continent be finished, but you and Yin Ran will still not be able to survive!—For the Divine Domain! Also for yourself!”

For the Divine Domain?

Also for myself?

“Hahahahahaha…” Xu Ming couldn't help but laugh loudly.

Suddenly, Xu Ming's laughter stopped abruptly: “Bullshit!!”

“Uh…” All the great powers were stunned.

“In my eyes, compared to Yin Ran, the entire Divine Domain isn’t even worth a fart!” Xu Ming sneered, “You still want me to give up on Yin Ran for the sake of the Divine Domain?”

“Uh…” The Godslayer Quasi-Saint and the other great powers were all speechless.

“Hahahaha! Wonderful! Wonderful!” Li Xiujie laughed strangely, “Brother Xu Ming, you truly are a man of love and righteousness! Admirable! Admirable!”

However, at this moment, a tyrannical consciousness swept over from an infinitely distant place.

“It’s the consciousness of a certain Saint, descending!” All the Sovereigns immediately reacted.

However, this kind of consciousness descent would not have any combat power; it was just a means of communication!

“Xu Ming!!” A voice filled with endless pressure sounded in Xu Ming's ears, “Immediately give up on Yin Ran! Go destroy the Saint Lord statue!—This is an order!”
