Open up and break into another world

Seeing Xu Ming's burning fighting spirit, the Minotaur was very unhappy: "Huh? What's with that look? Old Niu doesn't like it! Get rid of that look, or I'll beat you to death!"

Beat me to death?

Xu Ming sneered—seriously, if I don't use my cheat, you think I'm easy to bully!

But, what cheat should I use next?

The "Triple Cheat Package" of attack boost, defense boost, and speed boost, Xu Ming has already leveled up to Level 10. Leveling up further would cost too much, and the effect wouldn't be very significant.

Super Perfect Battle… unless Xu Ming directly activates the Ninefold Perfect Domain, the effect wouldn't be very strong. However, activating the Ninefold Perfect Domain requires over 700,000 Level 2 Cheat Points, which is equally extravagant.

After thinking it over.

"Let's do another forced level-up!"

From Perfected Congenital, forcibly leveling up to Half-Step Core Formation requires 180,000 Level 2 Cheat Points. Xu Ming used to think it was too expensive and didn't want to do it, but now…

"Little Cheat, level up my cultivation to Half-Step Core Formation!"

Boom!

A powerful force poured down, and Xu Ming's basic cultivation instantly increased from Perfected Congenital to Half-Step Core Formation!

With the increase in basic cultivation, under the enhancement of the Level 10 "Triple Cheat Package," Xu Ming's combat power naturally soared instantly!

Suddenly, Xu Ming's strength surged into the late stage of Core Formation.

Xu Ming looked at the Minotaur—you're in the late stage of Core Formation, and so am I; am I afraid of you?

"Your aura…" The Minotaur's bull eyes were filled with deep confusion, "Seems to have suddenly increased a notch?"

The yellow-haired giant ape in the distance was also a little surprised: "He actually had a backup plan? And looking at this aura, he should have the strength of the late stage of Core Formation… Haha, this is going to be interesting!"

"What, he actually held back when he was beating us!" The giants and swordsmen all felt humiliated—you can defeat or even crush us, but holding back, isn't that a little disrespectful to us?

After a brief surprise, the Minotaur sneered: "So you were hiding some strength! But you think this will allow you to defeat me? How naive!"

The Minotaur was tall and mighty, and his huge spiked club could be used as both a weapon and a shield.

He only needed to swing the spiked club casually, and it would be difficult for Xu Ming to even get close, let alone hurt him! Moreover… the Minotaur was conjured by the formation, so even if he suffered minor injuries occasionally, he would recover immediately, and it wouldn't affect his strength at all.

Smoke billowed from the Minotaur's nostrils: "Among all the Congenital level humans I've seen, your strength can rank in the top ten! Unfortunately, you're still far from being able to defeat me!"

"Far from being able to defeat you?" Xu Ming suddenly smiled strangely, "Brother Minotaur, if I'm not mistaken, you should have a fatal weakness!"

"A fatal weakness?" The Minotaur was stunned, "What?"

Xu Ming smiled exceptionally strangely: "Mental defense!"

"Not good!" The Minotaur widened his bull eyes in horror.

But it was too late!

When Xu Ming unleashed his strange smile, he had already silently cast the Heaven-Rank illusion secret technique—Dream Loss!

Boom!

Instantly, the Minotaur felt the world spinning, and layers of overlapping illusions crushed towards his sea of consciousness.

Sometimes, the Minotaur saw himself as a majestic Bull Demon King, commanding thousands of subordinates and fighting on the battlefield; sometimes, he saw himself as a pitiful calf, working hard in the fields; and sometimes, he saw himself in a gentle land, surrounded by countless beauties of the Minotaur race…

"It's fake!"

The Minotaur's huge body also crashed to the ground, unable to even stand, let alone fight Xu Ming.

"As expected!" Xu Ming dragged his spear and stood in front of the Minotaur; he could clearly feel that his opponent was completely lost in his illusion, "As I expected, this Minotaur's mental defense is indeed his weakness."

Of course, even if the Minotaur's mental defense was a weakness, if Xu Ming hadn't forcibly leveled up to Half-Step Core Formation and his mental power hadn't greatly increased, his illusion might not have succeeded.

The same illusion is most effective the first time it's used! Xu Ming took precautions and directly forced a level-up, then attacked the enemy's weakness, winning with one move.

"What a sharp mental attack!" Even the yellow-haired giant ape couldn't help but sigh, "Material attacks, mental attacks, both are very strong and well-balanced… There are simply no weaknesses!"

The giants and swordsmen were even more dumbfounded.

"Poor Old Niu… was he killed by a single glance?"

"The Minotaur, a simple-minded and well-developed race, is indeed most afraid of mental attacks!"

"There are very few geniuses who are good at mental attacks, and even fewer who can threaten the late stage of Core Formation at the Congenital level… It's only natural that Old Niu suffered this time; he can only blame his opponent for being too strong and well-balanced in all aspects!"

"This person is definitely worthy of being the Chosen One!"

The giants and swordsmen had to admit Xu Ming's strength! They believed that if Xu Ming had used mental attacks against them, they would definitely have been defeated with a single glance!

With the victory decided, Xu Ming walked straight towards the spaceship door.

As for the Minotaur lying on the ground, Xu Ming was too lazy to pay attention to him and let him struggle and wallow in the illusion.

"Aaaargh!!!"

With great difficulty, the Minotaur struggled out of the illusion.

Latest ⊥ Small ⊥ Say ⊥ At ⊥ Six ⊥ 9 ⊥ Books ⊥ Bar ⊥ ⊥ First ⊥ Send!

He widened his bull eyes and searched around: "Where is he? Where is he?"

However, he saw that Xu Ming had already reached the spaceship door.

"I lost!" The Minotaur was completely convinced of his defeat. He knew that if Xu Ming continued to use illusions on him, he would never be able to break free!

"I passed the test, right?" Xu Ming stood outside the hundreds-of-feet-tall spaceship door, looking at the yellow-haired giant ape.

"Not bad!" The yellow-haired giant ape stood up and pushed open the spaceship door, "Please come in, Chosen One!"

Xu Ming followed behind the yellow-haired giant ape, like an ant crawling into a door.

Inside the door was an incomparably vast hall, probably thousands of feet high.

The entire hall was extremely empty. Only in the very center was a simple wooden chair—an ordinary wooden chair for a person of Xu Ming's normal size to sit on.

"Here? What's so special about this place?" Xu Ming secretly looked around, but didn't see anything else; there was only emptiness.

"I'll take you to see the old master!" The yellow-haired giant ape led Xu Ming towards the simple wooden chair.

See the old master?

Xu Ming was shocked.

Could it be that the old master of this Misty Rain Ship is still alive?

That's not right; if he were still alive, why did the yellow-haired giant ape say "the old master, on his deathbed" earlier?

Xu Ming could only follow behind the yellow-haired giant ape with a heart full of doubts, heading towards the simple wooden chair.

To Xu Ming's horror, the yellow-haired giant ape would shrink by one point with each step he took. By the time he was about to reach the simple wooden chair, he had shrunk to the size of an ordinary ape, even shorter than Xu Ming.

Then, Xu Ming saw the yellow-haired giant ape, or rather, the little ape, kneeling reverently in front of the simple wooden chair, with his forehead and palms pressed to the ground, whispering: "Old master, another Chosen One has arrived!"

There was no reply for a long time.

After a long time…

A feeble, aged voice echoed throughout the empty hall: "Another Chosen One has finally arrived?"

Immediately afterwards, Xu Ming saw countless specks of white light gradually gathering on the simple wooden chair to form a frail, aged figure.
