Open up and break into another world

Inside the Tower of Broken Swords.

Xu Ming swept straight upwards.

The opponent on the second level was a black-clad martial artist at the Third Step Dao Venerate level. Of course, an opponent of this level couldn't pose any threat to Xu Ming; with a sweep of his long spear, Xu Ming easily blasted him into nothingness.

After the black-clad martial artist died, he also left behind a ball of incomparably pure soul nourishing power, which strengthened Xu Ming's soul once again.

“Very easy!”

Xu Ming, with his combat-type cheat activated, possessed the strength of a top-tier Half-Step Dao Lord. Dealing with a Third Step Dao Venerate was, of course, incomparably easy.

The opponent on the third level was a Sixth Step Dao Venerate, and he was similarly swept aside without any resistance.

However, Xu Ming was secretly apprehensive: “The Tower of Broken Swords has a total of seven levels; we're only on the third level now, and it's already a Sixth Step Dao Venerate… What kind of opponents will we encounter on the remaining four levels?”

After refining and consolidating the soul nourishing power from the third level, Xu Ming directly walked onto the fourth level.

The fourth level was a blood-red world.

This world was boundless; the sky and the earth were all the color of blood, which was nauseating to look at.

Not far in front of Xu Ming, there was a huge lake completely composed of blood. Bubbles of blood would occasionally rise from the lake, as if it were being boiled.

Not long after Xu Ming appeared on the fourth level, a scarlet humanoid creature emerged from the center of the lake.

This scarlet humanoid creature was about the same size as a normal human; however, its eyes were sharp triangles, its mouth had ferocious fangs, and it had no nose, as if it didn't need to breathe.

“This is…” Xu Ming looked at it intently. “A Blood Demon?”

Blood Demons were a special race.

Newborn Blood Demons were extremely weak, not even stronger than ordinary humans; however, as long as they encountered a place with rich blood energy, their strength would increase rapidly! This Blood Demon lived directly in the lake of blood, so its strength was naturally beyond doubt.

Xu Ming threw an investigation over.

“Top-tier Half-Step Dao Lord!” Xu Ming was slightly stunned—he had encountered a top-tier Half-Step Dao Lord on the fourth level! You must know that Xu Ming currently had quite a few combat-type cheats activated, and he only had the strength of a top-tier Half-Step Dao Lord.

Of course, having passed through the first three levels, his strength had greatly improved. Xu Ming was now an extremely strong existence among top-tier Half-Step Dao Lords, almost approaching the limit of Half-Step Dao Lord!

However, the Blood Demon race was inherently bloodthirsty, and almost invincible among its peers! Therefore, this Blood Demon at the top-tier Half-Step Dao Lord level should not be underestimated.

“A very good opponent…” Xu Ming vaguely had some anticipation.

Finding an evenly matched opponent was not easy. This Blood Demon was clearly a good opponent!

“Then… let's have a good fight!”

Xu Ming's fighting spirit was boiling.

“Roar—”

The Blood Demon's ferocious blood-red mouth let out a sharp, strange roar. With a “boom,” it directly rushed out of the blood pool and pounced towards Xu Ming.

“Good timing!”

Xu Ming's spear, like a rainbow piercing the sun, blasted towards it.

If this were on the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Races, the power of this spear would easily tear through the sky. However, inside the Tower of Broken Swords, the space was incomparably stable. Not to mention Xu Ming, even a Dao Lord would find it difficult to tear through space; this spear didn't even create a single ripple in the space.

“Roar!!”

The Blood Demon waved its sharp claws, directly slapping towards the long spear. Countless blood vessels flowed on its ferocious arm.

Boom!!

With a slap of its claws, even the long spear was directly slapped to the side.

“What strong power!!” Xu Ming was shocked.

Above Xu Ming's long spear, a vast and mighty Wind, Fire, and Water Three Great Heavenly Dao converged, sweeping and crushing towards the Blood Demon.

And this Blood Demon, although it only grasped one “Yang Heavenly Dao,” its comprehension of it was extremely profound; the sapling of the Yang Heavenly Dao in his sea of consciousness was almost growing into a towering tree!

“Roar!!”

The violent mysteries of the Yang Heavenly Dao directly collided with Xu Ming.

Boom!!

Boom!!

Boom!!

In just an instant, the two sides had collided countless times.

The entire blood-red earth was shattered. Terrifying cracks, like spider webs, covered the entire earth, stretching for hundreds, thousands of miles—this was still because the space of the blood-red world was stable and the earth was incomparably hard; if it were replaced with the Endless Continent, the cracks in the earth might have stretched for tens of thousands of miles!

The collision between super experts was completely a catastrophe for ordinary martial artists; fortunately, the blood-red world was a trial world of the Tower of Broken Swords, and there were no mortals living here.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! …

After an unknown number of collisions, Xu Ming and the Blood Demon stopped simultaneously; both sides opened the distance and looked at each other cautiously.

At this time, Xu Ming was already somewhat injured; while the Blood Demon was injured even more severely, and even its aura seemed somewhat weak.

“You are no match for me!” Xu Ming said confidently.

“Roar!!” This Blood Demon, although it was transformed within the Tower of Broken Swords, also had simple intelligence. Seeing that the situation was not right, it actually fled directly towards the lake of blood.

“This…” Xu Ming had never seen an opponent in a trial ground actually run away! With one moment of inattention, he let the Blood Demon escape into the lake of blood.

Immediately afterwards, Xu Ming saw that a large amount of blood in the lake was absorbed into the Blood Demon's body. And the Blood Demon's injuries were also rapidly recovering.

And this Blood Demon directly hid in the lake of blood and did not come out, its meaning was very obvious, it wanted Xu Ming to fight him in the lake of blood!

“Damn it!” Xu Ming couldn't help but curse, “This is too shameless, right?”

The Blood Demon hiding in the lake of blood was simply acting like a rogue! Even a weaker Limit Half-Step Dao Lord would find it difficult to pass the fourth level, right?

However…

Although the Blood Demon was shameless, Xu Ming could be even more shameless than him.

“Damn it, I originally wanted to have a good fight with you, and didn't want to activate the 'Soul Possession' cheat! But, since you're forcing me to do this, then don't blame me for being impolite!” Xu Ming thought fiercely.

However, when Xu Ming activated the “Soul Possession” cheat, he also had to save on cheat points. After all, Xu Ming currently only had 30 million Level 6 cheat points on him; and next, Xu Ming also wanted to break through the fifth, sixth, and seventh levels.

“Then, let's summon a three million cheat point soul, that should be about right!”

Xu Ming activated the “Soul Possession” cheat, and immediately a powerful Limit Half-Step Dao Lord soul possessed Xu Ming's body.

This time, what Xu Ming summoned was a Limit Half-Step Dao Lord who had comprehended the Heavenly Dao of Wind!

“Kill!”

In the “Soul Possession” state, Xu Ming directly killed into the lake of blood.
