Open up and break into another world

Unfortunately!

The senses of the Three Great Demi-Gods – Demon Eye Ruotong, Myriad Blood Eyes, and the Dragon Devil King – were absolutely correct!

This mechanical voice did indeed contain treachery.

Extreme treachery!

“The opportunity for you three is not to become ‘Direct Lineage Successors’!” The treacherous mechanical voice continued, “But… to serve the candidates for the Direct Lineage Successor!”

“What!?”

Demon Eye Ruotong and the other two were terrified; they understood the mechanical voice’s meaning: “You want to turn us into… soul slaves?”

“Gagagaga…” The mechanical voice actually laughed directly, “You’re quite clever! You guessed it right away!”

“What!?” Demon Eye Ruotong and the others finally understood—the Demi-God level Chosen Token was a complete trap!

They, three Demi-Gods, risked their lives to obtain the Chosen Token and become peripheral successors; however, they didn't see any benefits, but instead faced the risk of becoming soul slaves…

“Why!?”

“Why!?”

Demon Eye Ruotong roared in resentment: “Why can those Dao Lords have the opportunity to become Direct Lineage Successors! Instead, we three Demi-Gods aren’t even given the chance!—Even if we lose, let us lose fairly!”

If they had the opportunity but failed, then Demon Eye Ruotong would have nothing to say.

But they didn't even have the chance!

“Because…” The mechanical voice continued treacherously, “Because you are Demi-Gods!”

“This…”

Demon Eye Ruotong, Myriad Blood Eyes, and the Dragon Devil King were speechless—because we are Demi-Gods? Is that even a reason?

“Senior!” Demon Eye Ruotong raised his head and shouted towards the high sky, “I know that even if I have a divine artifact, I can’t resist you! But Senior… can’t you give us a proper reason?”

“Because you are Demi-Gods” – this reason is just too improper!

This time, the mechanical voice was quite patient: “Because of your ‘Flower of the Dao’!”

“Flower of the Dao?” Demon Eye Ruotong was surprised and doubtful.

“That’s right!” The mechanical voice slowly said, “The path to proving the Dao can be divided into five levels—the Dao Monarch level, condensing the ‘Seed of the Heavenly Dao’; the Dao Venerable level, growing the ‘Sapling of the Dao’; the Dao Lord level, growing into the ‘Tree of the Dao’; the Demi-God level, blooming the ‘Flower of the Dao’; the God level, bearing the ‘Fruit of the Dao’! But…”

“But, do you know—not all ‘Flowers of the Dao’ can bear the ‘Fruit of the Dao’!”

“The ‘Flowers of the Dao’ of you three have all bloomed incorrectly! It is impossible to bear the ‘Fruit of the Dao’ at all!”

“And if you cannot bear the ‘Fruit of the Dao’, it means that you cannot prove the Dao and become a God! If you have no hope of becoming a God, then what qualifications do you have to become Direct Lineage Successors?”

Why are there countless Demi-Gods in the Endless Continent, but almost no one can prove the Dao and become a God?—It is because their “Flowers of the Dao” have bloomed incorrectly!

At the moment they condensed the “Flower of the Dao” and became Demi-Gods; it was already destined that they would never be able to prove the Dao and become Gods!

Unless…

There are divine domain wonders like the “Dao Proving Fruit”.

However, the Dao Proving Fruit is actually not a good thing.

…

After a moment of silence, the mechanical voice sounded again: “Now, do you know why you weren’t given the opportunity?”

Demon Eye Ruotong, Myriad Blood Eyes, and the Dragon Devil King felt like crying but had no tears: “Since you didn’t plan to give us the opportunity, then why did you lure the Demi-Gods of our races to compete for the Chosen Token?—Could it be that among the Demi-Gods, someone’s ‘Flower of the Dao’ has bloomed correctly?”

“No!” The mechanical voice said directly, “No one has bloomed correctly!—However, the candidates for the Direct Lineage Successor can’t be without a few Demi-God slaves, right? So, I bestowed a few Demi-God level Chosen Tokens, gagagaga…”

Demon Eye Ruotong and the others were all in despair!—If they had known that risking their lives to snatch the Chosen Token would lead to such a fate; then they would never have snatched it!

However, there is no knowing beforehand in the world!

“Gagaga, you don’t need to be too desperate!” The mechanical voice said again, “There are harsh conditions to become a candidate for the Direct Lineage Successor! If… these ten Dao Lords fail to meet the conditions in the Trial Secret Realm; then this selection will also fail, and no one will be able to become a candidate for the Direct Lineage Successor!—In that case, you three won’t have to become soul slaves!”

In the desperate eyes of Demon Eye Ruotong and the others, a glimmer of hope suddenly flashed: “Fortunately… as long as no one can become a candidate for the Direct Lineage Successor, we won’t be reduced to soul slaves!”

However, when the gazes of the three Demi-Gods fell on Xu Ming; their hearts suddenly sank to the bottom again.

Xu Ming’s talent was just too monstrous!

Demon Eye Ruotong and the others asked themselves, if they were choosing a “Direct Lineage Successor”, they would definitely be very satisfied with Xu Ming!

Now, Demon Eye Ruotong and the others could only hope that the “General”’s vision was higher and that he would look down on Xu Ming.

…

Some are happy, some are sad!

The mechanical voice’s conversation with Demon Eye Ruotong and the others was naturally heard by Xu Ming and the other Dao Lords.

The newest novels are first published on 69shu.com!

The eyes of the ten Dao Lords were all shining brightly.

“What!? As long as you become a candidate for the Direct Lineage Successor, you can have three such powerful Demi-God slaves!?”

Xu Ming’s eyes seemed to shoot out two laser beams, scanning Demon Eye Ruotong, Dragon Devil King, and Myriad Blood Eyes.

Demon Eye Ruotong and the Dragon Devil King are both Ninth-Order Demi-Gods! Myriad Blood Eyes is a bit weaker, but it is also a special Eighth-Order Demi-God!

Moreover, Demon Eye Ruotong is carrying the Demon Clan's Divine Artifact!—Even the bamboo Saint's incarnation must avoid Demon Eye Ruotong!

“Is this… a ‘Divine Artifact and Demi-God’ gift pack?” Xu Ming's eyes lit up.

Moreover, if you can become a candidate for the Direct Lineage Successor, there must be other benefits! And these “other benefits” are probably no smaller than the “Divine Artifact and Demi-God” gift pack!

Nothing more to say!—Xu Ming is determined to get this “candidate for the Direct Lineage Successor” spot!

Sword Warrior and the others were also sparkling—if any of them could get this spot, then after returning to the Endless Continent, they could really walk sideways!

“The spot is mine!” Sword Warrior clenched his fists angrily, “The reason why I am not as dazzling as Xu Ming is only because I haven’t encountered my own opportunity yet! Now that the opportunity has come, I, Sword Warrior, will definitely bloom with unparalleled dazzling light!—Wait! When I return to the Endless Continent, I will let all the great powers of our human race understand that they were wrong! They buried my, Sword Warrior’s, talent!”

Sword Warrior had already begun to imagine how he would step by step ascend to the peak of power of the entire human race and even the entire Endless Continent!

At that time, the entire Endless Continent will have to submit under his, Sword Warrior's, feet!

Hua!!

Ten teleportation arrays simultaneously erupted with dazzling light.

When the light dissipated, there was no one left in the ten teleportation arrays.

Demon Eye Ruotong, Myriad Blood Eyes, and the Dragon Devil King were all praying: “Please, please, please don’t let anyone become a candidate for the Direct Lineage Successor!”
