Open up and break into another world

The Myriad Domain Genius Battle tested many factors of each genius, such as talent, potential, and luck, but it did not test cultivation.

For example, if two geniuses both had the strength of the peak of the Chaos Realm, but one genius had a cultivation of the ninth rank of the Chaos Realm, and the other genius had a cultivation of the eighth rank of the Chaos Realm—then it was clear that the genius of the eighth rank of the Chaos Realm had stronger talent and higher potential!

The geniuses participating in the Myriad Domain Genius Battle inevitably had uneven cultivation levels. After all, the age of all participants was limited to within one epoch; in just one epoch, if they didn't focus on improving their cultivation, it was very likely that their cultivation wouldn't reach the ninth rank of the Chaos Realm!

And precisely, the thing that the Myriad Domain Genius Battle valued the least was cultivation—after all, cultivation could be improved by relying on external objects, and it couldn't fully demonstrate talent!

In order to allow all geniuses to maximize their talent, Domain Lord Tianwen would use the "Purgatory of Tempering" to directly temper all geniuses' cultivation to the "first rank of the Chaos Realm"!

All geniuses having the cultivation of the first rank of the Chaos Realm, wouldn't that be fair?

Yes, it was fair…

Xu Ming's expression was a little strange: "Tempered to the first rank of the Chaos Realm? But, my cultivation is already the first rank of the Chaos Realm… Doesn't that mean that the cultivation of all other geniuses will be lowered, and only my cultivation will remain unchanged?"

It must be known that even a genius of the ninth rank of the Chaos Realm was as easy to deal with as bullying a child for Xu Ming! And now, Domain Lord Tianwen was going to suppress the cultivation of other geniuses and suppress the cultivation of all geniuses to be the same as Xu Ming's, which was simply like…tying up the hands and feet of all the children and throwing them to Xu Ming to bully!

Xu Ming was even a little embarrassed to participate in the Myriad Domain Genius Battle, after all…it was really too much bullying, wasn't it?

"Embarrassing! Embarrassing!" Xu Ming looked at the geniuses in the Purgatory of Tempering and thought to himself, wondering which unlucky ones would be assigned to the same Chaos World as him.

Boom!!

Within the Purgatory of Tempering, a vast and boundless pressure began to appear.

This pressure acted on every particle of the divine body, directly tempering a genius's cultivation from the particle level!

The pressure gradually increased, and within the Purgatory of Tempering, the cultivation of hundreds of millions of geniuses gradually began to decline.

"Xu Ming!" Desolate Antiquity Light was right next to Xu Ming, he sneered, "Although you are a legendary genius of the Chaos Realm, if your cultivation drops to the first rank of the Chaos Realm, how much strength can you exert?"

Of course, Desolate Antiquity Light didn't know that Xu Ming's cultivation was originally the first rank of the Chaos Realm; he naturally assumed that Xu Ming's cultivation was the ninth rank of the Chaos Realm.

"Being strong when your cultivation is the ninth rank of the Chaos Realm doesn't mean that you can also be strong when your cultivation is the first rank of the Chaos Realm!" Desolate Antiquity Light continued to flaunt his ignorance, "If your cultivation drops to the first rank of the Chaos Realm, your strength may not be comparable to mine!"

Desolate Antiquity Light's words also had some truth to them!

After all, many geniuses from sixth-grade forces had already prepared for the Myriad Domain Genius Battle; the secret techniques they cultivated were also the most suitable for use during the Myriad Domain Genius Battle! If it was an ordinary legendary genius of the Chaos Realm, after their cultivation dropped to the first rank of the Chaos Realm, their strength might really be inferior to a genius from a sixth-grade force like Desolate Antiquity Light!

Therefore, although the various major forces had long known that Xu Ming was a legendary genius of the Chaos Realm, they were not very afraid of Xu Ming's existence!

But…was Xu Ming an ordinary legendary genius of the Chaos Realm?

No!

Xu Ming's strength was…the fifth rank of the Profound Yellow Realm!

This was an unsolvable strength!

If the various forces knew Xu Ming's true strength, they would probably be shocked to despair!

"Xu Ming, do you dare to compete to see who kills more people?" Desolate Antiquity Light smiled provocatively, "Oh, no, there's no need to compete! You don't even know if you can survive!"

Xu Ming glanced at Desolate Antiquity Light and didn't say anything—what was the point of talking to this kind of self-righteous idiot?

"What a great method!" Although Xu Ming's cultivation remained unchanged, he was still shocked by Domain Lord Tianwen's methods, "Simultaneously tempering the cultivation of hundreds of millions of Chaos Realm geniuses is much more difficult than killing hundreds of millions of Chaos Realm cultivators with one move!"

At this time, Domain Lord Tianwen's voice sounded within the Purgatory of Tempering: "While we're at it, let me talk about the rules of the first stage of the Myriad Domain Genius Battle!"

Domain Lord Tianwen was still very relaxed, obviously, for him, simultaneously tempering the cultivation of hundreds of millions of geniuses was not stressful.

"To participate in the Myriad Domain Genius Battle, you can only have the cultivation of the first rank of the Chaos Realm, and you are not allowed to carry any treasures!" Domain Lord Tianwen said, "Your treasures and World Rings will all be left in the Purgatory of Tempering, and I will keep them for you! If you die, I will return the treasures to your respective forces!"

In other words, all the geniuses participating in the Myriad Domain Genius Battle had the cultivation of the first rank of the Chaos Realm and were naked.

"Within the Chaos Worlds you are about to go to, there are scattered Chaos Divine Weapons, healing pills, formations, and other treasures of various types; as for whether you can get what you need in the first time, it depends on your luck!"

Luck, in fact, is also luck!

If two geniuses with similar strength, one obtains a handy Chaos Divine Weapon, and the other is empty-handed; then, the result of the battle is conceivable!

Domain Lord Tianwen continued: "One hundred and three million geniuses will be divided equally into ten thousand Chaos Worlds; of the one hundred and three million geniuses, only ten thousand can survive! Remember, everyone you see is your enemy! You can form alliances with others along the way, but only one can survive in the end!—Beware of the knives of allies!"

Wit is also an assessment of the Myriad Domain Genius Battle. However, in the final analysis, the most important thing is still strength; if the strength is too poor, no matter how strong the wit is, it is impossible to be the one who survives to the end!

"Do everything possible to survive to the end!" Domain Lord Tianwen said, "The geniuses who survive to the end will receive a 'Divine Phoenix Flesh'! I won't say much about the efficacy and value of the Divine Phoenix Flesh; after eating it, your cultivation, strength, talent, and other aspects will undergo incredible transformations! In the future, even if you just bury your head in cultivation, stepping into the Nirvana Realm will be as easy as flipping your hand!"

The Divine Phoenix Flesh was incomparably precious and was not a treasure within the Tianwen Domain at all!

Even the most mediocre Chaos Realm cultivator, if they could eat the Divine Phoenix Flesh, their aptitude would undergo earth-shattering changes!

However, the Divine Phoenix Flesh could only be seen in the Myriad Domain Genius Battle; apart from this, even Domain Lord Tianwen could not obtain the Divine Phoenix Flesh!

Many top geniuses risked their lives to participate in the Myriad Domain Genius Battle because of the lure of the Divine Phoenix Flesh!

Boom!!

At this time, the pressure within the Purgatory of Tempering had also just dissipated.

Under the tempering of Domain Lord Tianwen, the cultivation of hundreds of millions of geniuses had already fallen to the first rank of the Chaos Realm.

"Go! Start your battles!"

A light gate appeared in front of each genius, not knowing which Chaos World it would lead to.

Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!…

In an instant, tens of thousands of geniuses rushed into the light gate—the sooner they entered, the more advantageous it would naturally be!

Xu Ming put all the treasures on his body into the World Ring and left them next to the light gate. He grinned and stepped into this unknown light gate.

"Divine Phoenix Flesh? I'm determined to get it!"
