Open up and break into another world

After finishing off Ao Xiang and dealing with his corpse, Xu Ming discovered another storage ring.

He opened it and saw two eye-catching, low-grade treasured hammers.

“This should be Guo Haoyan’s storage ring! These two hammers probably hold some sentimental value for Guo Haoyan, so they’ve always been kept in the ring,” Xu Ming guessed.

“Ao Xiang did a good deed before dying, actually helping me bring Guo Haoyan’s storage ring over.”

Then, Xu Ming's gaze fell on the dozen or so jade-like strange stones in the storage ring.

“Could these be… spirit stones?”

Mystic stones were for cultivators at the Congenital and Core Formation stages; spirit stones, on the other hand, were for cultivators at the Spirit Realm.

It was even said that spirit stones could help one comprehend the Intent of Nature.

“Little Cheat, are these spirit stones? If I exchange them for Cheat Points, how many would I get?” Xu Ming asked.

“Each spirit stone can be exchanged for one Level-4 Cheat Point!”

“As expected, they’re spirit stones!”

Xu Ming said, “Then help me exchange all the treasures in this storage ring for Cheat Points!”

Anyway, mystic stones, spirit stones, and Cheat Points could be exchanged with each other at “no price difference.” It was troublesome to count spirit stones in the storage ring, so it was better to exchange them directly.

As for the other miscellaneous treasures, it would be troublesome for Xu Ming to sort them out, and most of them were useless. So—exchange them all!

“Exchange complete! This time, a total of twenty Level-4 Cheat Points, approximately six hundred thousand Level-3 Cheat Points, and Level-2 Cheat Points…” were obtained!

Xu Ming was already too lazy to care about the number of Level-2 Cheat Points. He now had over a hundred million Level-2 Cheat Points; and they were still useless…

Afterward, Xu Ming began to look through Ji Ye’s storage ring.

“As expected, Ji Ye has a lot more treasures! Just the spirit stones alone number nearly two hundred!”

Xu Ming rummaged through it for a while.

“Eh! What’s this—” Xu Ming saw something that looked somewhat familiar, “Ji Ye also has an invitation to the Dao-Seeking Demonic Domain?”

Xu Ming took it out and carefully examined it, then took out his previous invitation as well.

“The two invitations seem slightly different…” Xu Ming compared them.

The dense, intricate patterns on the front were roughly the same, but there were some subtle differences.

However, the maps on the back, which indicated the routes, were completely different—the location marked on the map of Xu Ming's previous invitation was clearly within the jurisdiction of Lanting Mountain Manor; while the one he had now obtained was within the territory of Myriad Cliff Pavilion.

“Could it be… that there’s more than one entrance to the Dao-Seeking Demonic Domain?”

Xu Ming was too lazy to think about it, kept the invitation, and then exchanged all the other treasures for Cheat Points.

“Exchange complete! This time, a total of two hundred and eighty Level-4 Cheat Points, approximately one million seven hundred thousand Level-3 Cheat Points, and Level-2 Cheat Points…” were obtained!

Instantly, Xu Ming’s wealth ballooned to three hundred Level-4 Cheat Points, approximately three million Level-3 Cheat Points, and over one hundred million Level-2 Cheat Points!

“Let’s head back!”

Although he had obtained a lot of Cheat Points, Xu Ming’s mood was heavy.

“Ao Xiang was actually the illegitimate son of the Myriad Cliff Pavilion’s master. I must discuss how to handle this matter with the Sect Master!” Xu Ming thought to himself, “If this matter is not handled carefully, it will be a great disaster for the Savage Wilderness Sect!”

…

Savage Wilderness Sect.

At the top of the ten thousand steps.

All the Savage Wilderness Sect cultivators were deeply shocked by Xu Ming’s performance just now.

“That powerful Ji Ye was actually driven away by Xu Ming?—Sect Master, you are now also a Spirit Realm cultivator, can you see Ji Ye’s approximate strength?”

Gu Kongshan pondered for a moment, “Close to the middle stage of the Spirit Realm, I guess…”

“So strong!?”

Originally, although the Savage Wilderness Sect cultivators felt that Ji Ye was strong, they all thought he was probably at the middle level of the early stage of the Spirit Realm. Now, hearing Gu Kongshan say this, everyone immediately realized that they had underestimated Ji Ye.

“Ji Ye is so powerful… How strong must Xu Ming be to beat him and make him flee like a stray dog?”

“Will Xu Ming be in danger if he chases after him?” Some obsessed fans of Xu Ming also worried.

“Uh…” The Savage Wilderness Sect cultivators then realized that they were being overwhelmed by victory!

They, with only a few dozen Core Formation cultivators and two or three hundred Half-Step Core Formation cultivators, were actually clamoring to chase and kill three or four hundred Core Formation experts?—Wasn’t that courting death?

Even if they had the “Spring Return Technique” buff, they could only defend and not attack; moreover, the “Spring Return Technique” had long since disappeared.

Soon, Xu Ming, Ji Ye, Ao Xiang, and the other experts from the Hidden Kill Sect all disappeared from everyone’s sight.

Time gradually passed.

The Savage Wilderness Sect cultivators gradually became restless.

“Why hasn’t Xu Ming returned yet?”

“Could something have happened… Bah! Bah! Bah! This stinky mouth of mine!”

The longer they waited, the more anxious everyone became.

Suddenly—

“Look, who is that!!”

A figure suddenly appeared at the bottom of the ten thousand steps. Even Gu Kongshan didn’t notice how this figure appeared.

“Xu Ming!!”

“Brother Ming!!”

“Brother Ming!!”

A deafening roar of excitement suddenly erupted above the ten thousand steps.

God Hand Xu Ming!

Was back!

“Xu Ming…” Gu Hanmo’s eyes were moist, but she stubbornly controlled her Profound Energy to evaporate the moisture. She was about to excitedly rush down the ten thousand steps to see if Xu Ming was injured; but after a little pretense and hesitation, hundreds of Xu Ming’s obsessed fans had already rushed out.

“Brother Ming!”

“Brother Ming, are you alright?”

“What could have happened to Brother Ming? He must have crushed them easily!”

“How was it, Brother Ming? Did you kill Ji Ye?”

…

Xu Ming looked at the sincere and caring faces and was moved.

Although these ordinary disciples of the Savage Wilderness Sect had a huge gap in strength with him, they all sincerely treated him as a friend!

“You treat me as a friend, and I will definitely treat you as friends!” Xu Ming thought to himself.

He quickly walked past the ten thousand steps.

Xu Ming and Gu Hanmo exchanged a glance.

With just one glance, they conveyed a thousand words. They were in sync, and Xu Ming didn’t need to say much for Gu Hanmo to understand.

“How was it?” Gu Kongshan was still calm and asked at this time.

Xu Ming said loudly, “Ji Ye and Ao Xiang have both been killed by me!”

“Good!!!!!!”

“Brother Ming is mighty!!!!”

“God Hand is invincible!!!!”

Another burst of cheers erupted around them.

After a brief celebration, Xu Ming led Gu Kongshan aside, his expression serious and worried, “Sect Master, our Savage Wilderness Sect may be in trouble!”
