Open up and break into another world

Xu Ming, Yan Fei, and their group of eight silently and swiftly traversed the mountain forest.

They left no footprints on the ground they passed; after they were gone, there was no trace.

"Yan Fei, will your scolding of that Long Feng bring you any trouble?" Xu Ming asked.

Always addressing each other as "Brother Yan" and "Brother Xu" was quite awkward. After chatting for a while, they both switched to calling each other by their given names.

Yan Fei said nonchalantly, "Trouble? No… The Long family and our Blood Thunder Gate are inherently opposed. When we meet, neither of us gives the other face; it's perfectly normal!"

"Normal?" Mo Jiangde muttered privately, "Is that young master Long Feng one to suffer losses? This time he suffered a loss, he will definitely get even in the future…"

"Yan Fei, is that Long family powerful?" Xu Ming asked.

Now that they had formed a grudge, it was necessary to understand the other party's power.

"Powerful!" Yan Fei said, "The Long family and our Blood Thunder Gate are known as the two major forces of Zhenhai City; the Long family's ancestor is even a Spirit Realm expert!"

"What level in the Spirit Realm?" Xu Ming pressed.

Yan Fei seemed very strange as to why Xu Ming would ask this, and said, "Of course, it's the early stage of the Spirit Realm!"

"Uh…" Now Xu Ming completely didn't take Long Feng and the Long family to heart. The Long family's most powerful expert was only at the early stage of the Spirit Realm, which Xu Ming could easily crush.

The two chatted casually along the way, and Yan Fei also told Xu Ming a lot about the Dao-Seeking Demonic Domain.

"You're asking how the demonic aura on my body is? The more Dao-Demonic Pearls you refine, the more demonic aura you will naturally be contaminated with; the more you refine, the denser the demonic aura!"

"Then… what exactly is the use of the Dao-Demonic Pearl?" Xu Ming was like a curious baby.

"That Dao-Demonic Pearl last time, you used it, right?" Yan Fei said.

"Yes!"

"Then you should be able to feel that the demonic aura has a slight effect on improving strength."

"Yes! But… the improvement is very limited!"

"That's right! Because the greatest effect of the Dao-Demonic Pearl is not to improve strength, but to… improve comprehension!" Yan Fei revealed the secret of the Dao-Demonic Pearl.

Of course, this was not a secret in the Dao-Seeking Demonic Domain.

"Improve… comprehension?" Xu Ming was stunned, "Comprehension can also be improved?"

"Amazing, right!" Yan Fei smiled, "It is precisely because the Dao-Demonic Pearl has such a magical effect that so many people flock to this Dao-Seeking Demonic Domain! And the Dao-Seeking Demonic Domain is named after this—seeking Dao, seeking Dao, is seeking comprehension, seeking understanding of the Martial Dao!"

"Then… is the improvement to comprehension significant?"

"That depends on what level of Dao-Demonic Pearl it is!" Yan Fei explained, "The improvement to comprehension from a low-grade Dao-Demonic Pearl is naturally minimal; a mid-grade Dao-Demonic Pearl will have a considerable improvement effect; high-grade and top-grade Dao-Demonic Pearls have even more exaggerated improvement effects!—Using enough top-grade Dao-Demonic Pearls can even double comprehension!"

Comprehension doubled!?

This was undoubtedly a very terrifying concept.

"What level was that Dao-Demonic Pearl I used last time?" Xu Ming asked.

"Mid-grade, not bad!" Yan Fei said, "We are now going to hunt Core Formation Realm demonic beasts to get a high-grade Dao-Demonic Pearl!"

"Only Core Formation Realm demonic beasts produce high-grade Dao-Demonic Pearls? Then what level of demonic beast would have a top-grade Dao-Demonic Pearl?"

"Spirit Realm demonic beast!—One day, I will also get a few top-grade Dao-Demonic Pearls!" Yan Fei's eyes were filled with longing, "However… there is something that improves comprehension even more perversely than top-grade Dao-Demonic Pearls!"

"What?"

"Dao-Demonic Essence!" Yan Fei's eyes sparkled, "I don't know where Dao-Demonic Essence comes from. As far as I know, the Long family's ancestor in the entire Zhenhai City only has one Dao-Demonic Essence!"

"Oh?" Xu Ming suddenly felt that there should be many more stories to happen between himself and the Long family.

The Long family's ancestor has a Dao-Demonic Essence—Xu Ming kept it in mind.

…

The group of eight traveled for several hours, and finally arrived at the edge of a vast lake with misty water vapor.

Yan Fei's expression turned solemn: "Our target is nearby!"

Yan Fei and the others' target was a Level 1 Core Formation Realm Han Beast. They had been eyeing this Han Beast for a long time, and they also fully understood its habits.

"Almost every day at dusk, that Han Beast will come here to drink water; let's set up a confinement array and a killing array nearby first!" Yan Fei said, "By the way, Xu Ming, what is your approximate strength, so I can make arrangements."

"Uh…" Xu Ming pondered for a moment.

With his true strength, dealing with that Level 1 Core Formation Realm Han Beast would naturally be effortless; he could just find that Han Beast and knock it down with a single glance.

"Half-step Core Formation is not bad; but don't you know that even if they are both Half-step Core Formation, their strengths are vastly different?" Mo Jiangde looked at Xu Ming with a mocking expression, "Me, Yan Fei, and Shen Bing can easily crush you, not to mention that. Even those four Perfected Stage of the Congenital Realm, relying on the demonic aura on their bodies, will not be weaker than you—so, young man, don't casually say some arrogant words! It will make people laugh their heads off!"

"I…" Xu Ming was also drunk—even if I don't use cheats, I have the strength of the Spirit Realm; now, in order to be low-key, I said that I am not weaker than them, and I am actually accused of being "arrogant"…

"Stop arguing! Let's set up the array first, it would be troublesome if that beast discovers us and becomes alert." Yan Fei was quite authoritative in the team.

After all, Yan Fei had not even reached the Congenital Realm before entering the Dao-Seeking Demonic Domain; in such a short period of a few months, his cultivation had soared to the Half-step Core Formation Realm—such talent must be highly valued by the Blood Thunder Gate, and his status would naturally be higher.

"Humph!" Mo Jiangde snorted coldly and went to set up the array on his own.

Yan Fei and the other seven were busy.

They had already discussed what array to set up and how to set it up, so they didn't need Xu Ming's help much.

And Xu Ming was happy to be idle.

Before long, the array was completed.

"Okay, everyone hide, and wait for that beast to come over!"

The eight of them each found a position, hid well, and restrained their auras.

Half an hour later…

A Han Beast with a pitch-black body staggered towards the lake to drink water.

"It's here!" Yan Fei, Mo Jiangde, and the others' eyes lit up.

Xu Ming was naturally calm—it was just a Level 1 Core Formation Realm Han Beast, what was there to be moved by?

However…

"Huh?" Xu Ming suddenly discovered that Yan Fei and the others seemed to have underestimated this Han Beast.

Xu Ming's mental power spread out along the direction the Han Beast came from. Soon, Xu Ming detected a Han Beast cave, and also detected another much larger Han Beast in the Han Beast cave.

However, that large Han Beast was sleeping soundly. And judging from the looks of it, it seemed to have been sleeping for a long time; if no one disturbed it, it would not wake up in a short time.

"Perfected Stage of the Core Formation Realm?" Xu Ming judged the cultivation of the large Han Beast, and was speechless, "How did Yan Fei and the others do their investigation… This Level 1 Core Formation Realm Han Beast is obviously just the cub of that large Han Beast. Are they not tired of living by targeting this Han Beast?"

I have been too busy recently, and have been updating late, I am really sorry… Please forgive me a little, the National Day is coming soon, and I will update more!
