Open up and break into another world

“The loser is… Xu Yang!”

As soon as these words came out, the Elder Council was immediately shocked.

“What!?”

“How is that possible!?”

“Xu Yang has a Grade Three Earth-Class Destiny; how could he possibly lose to Xu Ming?”

However, the battle footage of Xu Ming had already been transmitted, leaving them no room for doubt—Xu Ming not only defeated Xu Yang but also did so with a single spear strike!

“The strength of a Fifth-Order Chaotic Realm…” The elders were all existences of the Destruction Realm, so how could their eyesight be poor?

No matter how well one studies secret techniques, if one's cultivation cannot improve, one will be slapped to death by a great power with higher cultivation.

However…

The unexpected news of "Xu Ming instantly defeating Xu Yang" brought a turning point to the Elder Council.

Originally, the elders had basically decided to have Xu Ming hand over the Primordial Divine Talisman in the name of the clan; but now, many elders are wavering again!

After all… Xu Ming isn't as useless as they thought, is he?

“The matter of the Primordial Divine Talisman should be discussed later!” Xu Tianchen stated.

“Why discuss it later?” Xu Tianfeng immediately retorted, “It is true that Xu Ming defeated Xu Yang today! However, it is also true that Xu Ming's Destiny is only Grade One Human-Class, right?—With such a trash Destiny, it is destined that he cannot cultivate or enter the Primordial Divine Hall! In that case, why should we keep the Primordial Divine Talisman on him?”

For a time, the elders began to argue again.

In the end, the result of the argument was: to demand that Xu Ming hand over the Primordial Divine Talisman!

…

Xu Ming's residence.

Xu Ming frowned: “This divine body is really weak!”

With a cultivation base of the First-Order Chaotic Realm and without having cultivated the 'Divine Phoenix Undying Body,' apart from the cheat and Destiny, he is not much stronger than when Xu Ming first left the Divine Domain.

“Could it be… that only the will can travel through the River of Time, and the divine body cannot travel over?” Xu Ming couldn't help but think, “Fortunately, most of my treasures are in my Inner World! Now that I have traveled over, these treasures have come with me and have not been lost in the River of Time!”

For example, the Divine Phoenix Essence was placed by Xu Ming in the River of Time!

“If I use the Divine Phoenix Essence, I will be able to quickly restore my cultivation to the Primordial Realm! However… if I travel through the River of Time again in the future, will only my will be able to return to the future? If that's the case, wouldn't it be a waste if I use the Divine Phoenix Essence now?”

How precious is the Divine Phoenix Essence?

Xu Ming couldn't bear to waste it!

“But… if I don't use the Divine Phoenix Essence and cultivate slowly, I don't know when I will be able to glimpse the secrets of this Chaotic Era…”

If one wants to glimpse the secrets of this era, the stronger one's strength, the better!

Knock! Knock! Knock!

At this moment, the sound of knocking on the door rang out.

The corners of Xu Ming's mouth curled up: “Yun Tian? Come in!”

Only then did Yun Tian push the door open, with an anxious look on her face: “Elders… the elders are here!”

“The elders?” Xu Ming had already sensed that it wouldn't be a good thing, but he still calmly got up, “Let's go take a look!”

Walking out of the room, Xu Ming was surprised to find that all nineteen elders of the clan's Elder Council had arrived.

“Elders, is there anything I can do for you!?” Xu Ming asked with a smile.

“Bold!” Xu Tianfeng shouted sharply, “Upon seeing us elders, you didn't even pay your respects first!”

Xu Ming ignored Xu Tianfeng and turned his gaze to Xu Tianchen—in his memory, Elder Xu Tianchen was on his side.

“Cough cough!” Elder Xu Tianchen coughed twice—asking Xu Ming for the Primordial Divine Talisman was, after all, somewhat unkind; therefore, Xu Tianchen was naturally a little embarrassed to speak.

However, now that they had come, Xu Tianchen still had to speak shamelessly: “Xu Ming, the clan's Elder Council has passed a resolution, hoping that you… hand over the Primordial Divine Talisman!”

The Primordial Divine Talisman had already been refined by Xu Ming and was integrated with Xu Ming's divine body; if Xu Ming died, the Primordial Divine Talisman would also disappear!

Unless… Xu Ming was willing to actively hand over the Primordial Divine Talisman!

It was precisely for this reason that no one in the clan secretly killed Xu Ming to seize the Primordial Divine Talisman.

When Elder Xu Tianfeng secretly ambushed Xu Ming, he only seriously injured Xu Ming and did not kill him.

“Hand over the Primordial Divine Talisman?” Xu Ming smiled—after he traveled over, the Primordial Divine Talisman did not disappear because of it; if Xu Ming wanted to hand it over, he could!

It's just… why should Xu Ming hand it over?

“The Primordial Divine Talisman seems to be my own treasure, not the clan's, right?” Xu Ming sneered, “The clan has no right to force me to hand over the Primordial Divine Talisman, right?”

“This…” Elder Xu Tianchen was a little embarrassed—the clan really didn't have such power.

“Impudent!!” Xu Tianfeng coldly shouted, “Xu Ming! Since you are a member of the clan, you must abide by the decisions of the clan's Elder Council!—The Elder Council orders you to hand over the Primordial Divine Talisman, how dare you disobey?”

“That's right!” Another black-clothed elder also glared at Xu Ming, “Moreover… the Primordial Divine Talisman is useless on you! Of course, you have to hand it over!”

“Useless?” Xu Ming smiled, “Who said it's useless? I can go to the Primordial Divine Hall!”

Xu Ming would definitely go to the Primordial Divine Hall!

“The Primordial Divine Hall? With your Destiny, you dare to try to enter the Primordial Divine Hall!?” Xu Tianfeng sneered disdainfully, “Entering the Primordial Divine Hall requires the cultivation of the Destruction Realm! You only have a Grade One Human-Class Destiny; you dare to try to cultivate to the Destruction Realm? What a daydream!”

“That's none of your concern!” Xu Ming said coldly, “The Primordial Divine Talisman is my own treasure, not the clan's! I am unwilling to give it to the clan; please don't rob it, elders!”

Xu Ming deliberately emphasized the words “rob.”

The clan elders also wanted to save face, so they couldn't say anything for a while.

After all, if they forced Xu Ming, it would indeed be the “robbery” that Xu Ming said.

“You…” Xu Peng, who had followed along, couldn't help but scold, “Xu Ming, it's useless for you to keep the Primordial Divine Talisman, yet you are unwilling to hand it over to the clan!?”

“Useless? Who said I'm useless?—I can take it to sell!” Xu Ming sneered.

If the Primordial Divine Talisman were taken to sell, it could indeed be sold for a good price.

“And you… Xu Peng!” Xu Ming added, “This Primordial Divine Talisman, handing it over to the clan, wouldn't it be equivalent to giving it to you?—Why should I give the Primordial Divine Talisman to you!?”
