Open up and break into another world

“Everything will be according to Elder Tianjing's instructions!”

Upon hearing this, Envoy Qiongyi's expression drastically changed, and he repeatedly begged for mercy: “Xu Ming, spare me! Elder Tianjing, spare me!”

However, no one paid attention to his pleas.

Boom!

Elder Tianjing's divine will forcefully surged into Envoy Qiongyi's mental sea.

With Elder Tianjing's formidable divine will, he instantly investigated Envoy Qiongyi's memories, leaving no stone unturned.

“Stealing the Fragment of the Supreme Dao and framing Xu Ming? — Hmph! You've completely disgraced our Azure Sky Sect!” Elder Tianjing coldly snorted and, without any mercy, raised his hand and annihilated Qiongyi's entire divine body.

However, Qiongyi's treasures were perfectly preserved.

Elder Tianjing casually said, “Xu Ming, you can have these treasures!”

Elder Tianjing naturally looked down on these scraps.

“Thank you, Elder Tianjing!” Xu Ming unceremoniously accepted them.

This scene made even Sword Song Country Lord feel envious—it should be known that Envoy Qiongyi's treasures were even more abundant than Sword Song Country Lord's! In other words, Xu Ming's current wealth, even among those at the realm of myriad beings, could be considered relatively wealthy!

Huanggu Guang's expression, however, was unsightly—as the saying goes, one should consider the owner before hitting a dog! Xu Ming had just arrived and killed one of his lackeys; it would be strange if Huanggu Guang's expression was pleasant!

However, since Elder Tianjing was the one who took action, Huanggu Guang didn't dare to say anything.

However…

Huanggu Guang's expression shifted several times before he said, “Elder Tianjing, according to our Azure Sky Sect's rules, newly initiated gold-robed disciples should undergo the Untangling Heaven Chessboard test, right?”

The Untangling Heaven Chessboard is a common method used by various forces to test geniuses!

In the Azure Sky Sect, if one performs poorly in the Untangling Heaven Chessboard, then even if their strength is strong, even if they reach the legendary level of the Chaotic Realm, they will still not be able to become a gold-robed disciple!

Moreover, if the number of solutions found in the Untangling Heaven Chessboard is small, even if one becomes a gold-robed disciple, their ranking will be relatively low and they will be looked down upon by other gold-robed disciples!

The reason why Huanggu Guang is the number one disciple of the Azure Sky Sect is because the number of solutions he found in the Untangling Heaven Chessboard is the highest in the entire Azure Sky Sect!

Huanggu Guang continued, “I am very curious about this Junior Brother Xu Ming's talent; I implore Elder Tianjing to arrange the test as soon as possible, so that I can witness his brilliance!”

“I will arrange this myself, you don't need to worry about it!” Elder Tianjing could naturally see that Huanggu Guang wanted to suppress Xu Ming in the Untangling Heaven Chessboard to showcase his “number one disciple” status!

However, to be honest, Elder Tianjing was not optimistic about how well Xu Ming would perform in the Untangling Heaven Chessboard. After all… Xu Ming was a gold-robed disciple from the “wasteland”; even if his talent was good, he probably wouldn't be able to compare with other carefully nurtured gold-robed disciples, right?

“Untangling Heaven Chessboard?” Xu Ming couldn't help but laugh—wasn't this like running into his strength and creating an opportunity for him to “become famous in one fell swoop”?

“Xu Ming!” Sword Song Country Lord secretly transmitted his voice, “This Huanggu Guang is the number one genius of this generation in the Azure Sky Sect; he seems to be targeting you a bit, it's better for you to be more low-key and not confront him head-on!”

“The number one genius?” Xu Ming suddenly became a little interested.

Immediately, Xu Ming looked at Huanggu Guang playfully and asked, “How many solutions have you untangled in this Untangling Heaven Chessboard?”

Huanggu Guang proudly said, “Ninety-one thousand three hundred solutions!”

…

The news of Xu Ming's arrival at the Azure Sky Sect quickly spread within the sect.

“Have you heard? Our Azure Sky Sect's eleventh gold-robed disciple has been found by Elder Tianjing!”

“Of course, I know. Tomorrow, he will undergo the Untangling Heaven Chessboard test! I wonder how many levels his Supreme Dao foundation can reach?”

“Heh! He's just a genius from the wasteland, don't have too high expectations. I estimate he'll barely reach seventy thousand levels! Moreover… untangling the Untangling Heaven Chessboard depends a lot on one's state; if one's state isn't good, they might not even be able to untangle seventy thousand solutions, which would be laughable!”

“Haha! If he can't untangle seventy thousand solutions in the test, then he'll be reduced to a purple-robed disciple!”

…

The test for Xu Ming soon began.

As for existences at the Realm of Myriad Beings and the Realm of Destruction, there were even tens of thousands!

These experts all wanted to see if the Azure Sky Sect's eleventh gold-robed disciple truly had real skills!

“Xu Ming?” Sword Song Country Lord transmitted his voice, “Can you really untangle seventy thousand solutions of the Untangling Heaven Chessboard?”

For Untangling Heaven Chessboard, Sword Song Country Lord naturally has a deep understanding; also knows that untangling seventy thousand solutions, is how difficult!

Untangling seventy thousand solutions of the Untangling Heaven Chessboard means that the 'Supreme Dao Foundation' has reached seventy thousand levels! What is the 'Supreme Dao Foundation'?—The Supreme Dao Foundation can only be built in the Chaotic Realm and below; the more solid the Supreme Dao Foundation, the higher the future achievements! Above the Profound Yellow Realm, it is impossible to further solidify the Supreme Dao Foundation, and it is impossible to further improve on the Untangling Heaven Chessboard!

Like Sword Song Country Lord, it is because his Supreme Dao Foundation is not solid enough that his achievements are limited—his Supreme Dao Foundation is only forty thousand levels, and cultivating to the 'Realm of Myriad Beings' is already the limit, and it is impossible to break through to the 'Realm of Destruction' in this life.

And a Supreme Dao Foundation of seventy thousand levels and above makes it as easy as eating and drinking to break through to the Realm of Destruction in the future; even the 'Nirvana Realm' has some hope!

Xu Ming smiled without saying a word.

Untangling Heaven Chessboard?

Supreme Dao Foundation?

Not to mention the mere Azure Sky Sect, even if one looks at the entire Endless Chaos, Xu Ming can be sure that there is absolutely no Supreme Dao Foundation more solid than his own! Because… the Untangling Heaven Chessboard only has one hundred and three thousand six hundred solutions, and the highest Supreme Dao Foundation only has one hundred and three thousand six hundred levels!

Xu Ming has already untangled all of the Untangling Heaven Chessboard, and built a Supreme Dao Foundation of one hundred and three thousand six hundred levels—how could anyone's Supreme Dao Foundation be more solid than his? At most, it can only be on par, and it's not even certain!

“You watch!”

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Xu Ming calmly walked onto the Untangling Heaven Chessboard.

Most of the tens of thousands of experts staring at Xu Ming were existences at the Realm of Myriad Beings and the Realm of Destruction; under their gaze, if it were another genius, their state of mind and condition would likely be affected!

But who is Xu Ming?

Regarding the Untangling Heaven Chessboard, it would not be an exaggeration to describe Xu Ming as "thoroughly familiar with it". No matter how many strong people are watching, it will not affect Xu Ming in the slightest.

“Hmm…” Xu Ming secretly pondered, “I can't be too high-profile, I still need to be low-key!—Since the 'number one disciple' Huanggu Guang's solution count is ninety-one thousand three hundred solutions, then I will… ninety-one thousand three hundred and one solutions! No more!”

As long as he surpasses the current "number one genius" by one solution, then wouldn't Xu Ming be the "number one genius"?

Moreover, if he surpasses Huanggu Guang by too much at once, it will definitely damage his confidence—one still needs to give young people a little hope!
