Open up and break into another world

Boom! !

Boom! !

In the "General-level Trial", Xu Ming wielded his long spear, rampaging and slaughtering at will.

Beneath his feet, hundreds of enormous corpses already lay on the ground. The killing intent and bloody aura in the air were also becoming increasingly浓稠 (nóngchóu - thick/dense).

These massive corpses were all sinking into the ground; many had already sunk into the earth—if not for this, there would probably be thousands of corpses on the surface!

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!…

The long spear smashed down like a meteor, and in almost an instant, it cleared away dozens of opponents around him.

“Whew—” Xu Ming could finally breathe a little easier and rest for a moment. “Finally, I've dealt with the fifth wave of opponents…”

The fifth wave of opponents consisted of one hundred people, all of them Fourth-Order Half-Gods!—It was hard to imagine that such a trial was actually at the “Dao Lord” level!

Moreover, Xu Ming didn't know how many more waves of enemies were behind him.

“In other Microcosm Worlds, would any Dao Lords be able to pass the 'General-level Trial'?”

If the opponents later on were too strong, even Xu Ming wouldn't dare say that he would 100% be able to pass the “General-level Trial.”

After all, even if Xu Ming summoned the Willow Tree Avatar, it would only have Eighth-Order Half-God combat power. If a group of Ninth-Order Half-God opponents suddenly appeared, he really might not be able to defeat them.

“When soldiers come, generals will block them; when water comes, earth will dam it! Let's take it one step at a time!”

Just then, the mechanical voice that had been silent in the sky for a long time finally sounded again: “Congratulations on passing the fifth wave of the 'General-level Trial', reward: one 'Source God Crystal'!”

“Source God Crystal?”

The mechanical voice explained: “The Source God Crystal is the essence of the Heavenly Dao extracted from God Stones; after refining it, it can directly enhance one's understanding of the Heavenly Dao at the Dao Lord level!”

Xu Ming's eyes lit up: “What a great treasure!”

The mechanical voice continued, “Starting from the fifth wave of trials, you will receive one Source God Crystal for each wave you pass. However, there are restrictions on the use of Source God Crystals; a person can only choose to use the Source God Crystal of one type of Heavenly Dao—for example, if you use the Source God Crystal of the Heavenly Dao of Metal, you will no longer be able to use the Source God Crystals of the other eight types of Heavenly Dao! Which one do you choose?”

“So that's how it is…” Xu Ming did not hesitate, “I choose the Source God Crystal of the Heavenly Dao of Fire!”

The Heavenly Dao of Fire was the Heavenly Dao that Xu Ming had the strongest comprehension and highest level of attainment in, and he had already comprehended it to the “Four-Step Dao Lord” level. Since he was going to use the Source God Crystal, he would naturally use it to improve his strongest Heavenly Dao.

“Alright!”

The mechanical voice faded.

In the sky, a fist-sized, fire-red God Crystal slowly floated down.

The Source God Crystal looked very ordinary, without the slightest Heavenly Dao fluctuation.

“This stone can enhance my understanding of the Heavenly Dao?” Xu Ming began to examine it.

“Hurry up and use it!” The mechanical voice in the sky said again, “Before the sixth wave of trials arrives, you will have enough time to refine this Source God Crystal!”

“Is that so?”

Xu Ming did not hesitate at all and directly began to absorb and refine the Fire Source God Crystal.

Whoosh!

At the same time, Xu Ming couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.

The “Source God Crystal” can only enhance one's understanding of the Heavenly Dao at the Dao Lord level. However, those participating in the “General-level Trial”, except for Xu Ming himself who was an anomaly; the other trial participants should all be Invincible Dao Lords!—In that case, why would they reward “Source God Crystals” during the trial process, and even provide enough time to absorb and refine them?

Soon, Xu Ming figured out this question—the other trial participants participating in the “General-level Trial” probably wouldn't use the Source God Crystal on the Heavenly Dao they were most proficient in, but would use it on the Heavenly Dao they were “not proficient” in!

Because, as far as Xu Ming knew, many true peerless geniuses comprehended several Heavenly Daos at the same time!—Precisely because they comprehended several Heavenly Daos at the same time, those peerless geniuses were able to use their Dao Lord-level comprehension of the Heavenly Dao to defeat higher-level Half-Gods and pass the General-level Trial!

…

One hour later.

The effect of the Source God Crystal was exhausted.

And Xu Ming's comprehension of the Heavenly Dao of Fire had reached the perfect Five-Step Dao Lord level, very close to the Six-Step Dao Lord!

With the improvement in his comprehension of the Heavenly Dao, Xu Ming's strength naturally also improved a lot.

“My Willow Tree Avatar's strength should be very close to the Ninth-Order Half-God!”

Xu Ming had all nine Heavenly Daos reaching the Dao Lord level, plus the bonus from the combat-type cheat, plus the specialness of the Willow Tree Avatar, which allowed him to transcend so many levels.

And Xu Ming's human avatar was slightly weaker by one or two grades.

At this time, the sixth wave of enemies—fifty ugly Demon-Patterned Blood Lizards—burrowed out from the ground and attacked Xu Ming.

These fifty Demon-Patterned Blood Lizards all had the strength of Fifth-Order Half-Gods!

“Kill!!”

Xu Ming dragged his long spear in one hand, while in the other hand, hundreds and thousands of willow branches sprouted!—Fifty Fifth-Order Half-God opponents were already qualified to make Xu Ming go all out! If the trial ground wasn't too small, Xu Ming estimated that he would have directly released the entire Willow Tree Avatar.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!…

Sixth wave, victory!

Xu Ming obtained and refined another “Fire Source God Crystal”, and his comprehension of the Heavenly Dao of Fire reached the perfect Six-Step Dao Lord level!

Seventh wave, twenty Sixth-Order Half-Gods; Xu Ming still won easily!

After that, Xu Ming refined the third Fire Source God Crystal, and the Heavenly Dao of Fire improved to the perfect Seven-Step Dao Lord level, and his strength reached a new level.

Eighth wave…

Ninth wave…

…

“The final wave of enemies is about to arrive, trial participant Xu Ming, please be prepared!”

Xu Ming waited in full battle readiness: “There are only ten waves of enemies in total, fortunately, it's quite easy!”

Soon, the tenth wave of enemies appeared, with only two people.

One was a dwarf with a short knife; the other was a strong man with a long spear—two Ninth-Order Half-God opponents, one specializing in close assassination, and the other specializing in frontal confrontation, it was clear at a glance that they were a very difficult combination.

“If it were my strength at the beginning of the 'General-level Trial', I'm afraid I really wouldn't be able to defeat this final wave of enemies!” Xu Ming thought to himself, “Fortunately, I refined five Source God Crystals, and my comprehension of the Heavenly Dao of Fire has reached the perfect Nine-Step Dao Lord level, very close to the Invincible Dao Lord! Now, my strength should be stronger than most Ninth-Order Half-Gods!”

Ninth-Order Half-Gods were almost the strongest existence on the Endless Continent! Only special existences like the Golden Battle God and the Bamboo Saint were slightly stronger than Ninth-Order Half-Gods!

Now, Xu Ming's strength was an absolute leader among the Ninth-Order Half-Gods.

Without a doubt, Xu Ming had already stood at the very peak of the entire Endless Continent!

“Kill!!”

The final battle in this “General-level Trial” was comparable to the most peak duel in the entire Endless Continent.
