Open up and break into another world

Having spent two hundred Divine Crystals, Xu Ming checked into a secluded suite in the Lanting Pavilion.

The walls of the suite were covered with layers of formations, ensuring complete tranquility and security within the room.

“To rent a room, it actually cost two hundred Divine Crystals!” However, Xu Ming felt it was quite cheap.

Because, in Golden Crow City, renting a room wasn't calculated by "day," but by "year." Two hundred Divine Crystals was the rent for a year.

“Sisi, this suite has two separate rooms. You take one, and I'll take the other!” Xu Ming said with feigned seriousness, “Don't just casually enter my room! I'm not a casual person!”

“Who wants to enter your room!” Sisi blushed and retorted.

“Hmm…” Xu Ming pondered for a moment and handed over a World Ring, “Here are twenty thousand Divine Crystals, take them for now!”

Sisi was stunned and repeatedly waved her hands: “No! No! Brother Ming, I don't want them!”

Xu Ming, without allowing any explanation, tossed it over: “I told you to take them, so take them! — I plan to go into seclusion for a while, and I'm not sure how long it will be. In case I forget the time during seclusion and exceed a year, you'll have to renew the rent!”

“Oh…” Only then did Sisi accept the Divine Crystals.

……

After making arrangements, Xu Ming directly entered his room and began his seclusion.

“Little Cheat, is there any way to quickly increase my strength?”

If he wanted to quickly increase his strength, of course, relying on Little Cheat was the most reliable.

However, the price of seeking Little Cheat was… Cheat Points!

Previously, Xu Ming didn't have any Level-9 Cheat Points, so naturally, he couldn't seek Little Cheat. But now it was different; Xu Ming had become rich overnight, possessing over a million Divine Crystals, so he naturally had the confidence to seek Little Cheat!

“Yes!” Little Cheat said directly.

“As expected!”

Having Cheat Points made things so much easier!

“Do you want to improve the strength of your Ancient Cultivator clone or your Heavenly Dao Stream clone?” Little Cheat asked again.

Xu Ming hesitated slightly and said: “Ancient Cultivator clone!”

Xu Ming planned to temporarily not allow the Heavenly Dao Stream clone to become a god, but to focus on cultivating the Ancient Cultivator clone.

After all, cultivating two clones would require two portions of Cheat Points and two portions of effort. Although Xu Ming now had some Cheat Points, he was still far from being truly “rich and generous”; so, he would save some for now!

Moreover, Xu Ming planned to keep the Heavenly Dao Stream clone at the demigod level; in this way, the Heavenly Dao Stream clone wouldn't need to spend Level-9 Cheat Points to use cheats, but only Level-8 Cheat Points! — To Xu Ming now, Level-8 Cheat Points were completely worthless! He could spend them however he wanted!

The downside of doing this was that the Heavenly Dao Stream clone would have almost no combat power! But the advantage was that the Heavenly Dao Stream clone could recklessly use the “Instantaneous Movement” cheat without worrying about Cheat Points.

Little Cheat continued, “Your Ancient Cultivator clone is cultivating the Emperor-level technique 'Thunder Forging Body,' which is quite good and suitable for your current cultivation! So, there's no need to change the technique!”

“Mm!” Xu Ming nodded slightly.

“And 'Thunder Forging Body' requires the assistance of a large amount of thunder power!” Little Cheat added, “Moreover, it can't be ordinary thunder power!”

The core of the Emperor-level technique 'Thunder Forging Body' was actually “destruction and then construction”! — First, annihilate one's own Divine Body at the “particle level,” and then re-forge new, stronger particles!

Each time it was annihilated, the re-constructed Divine Body would be stronger by a fraction! The more times it was annihilated, the stronger the Divine Body would be, until the Divine Body transformed to the “Emperor-level”!

And the biggest problem in cultivating 'Thunder Forging Body' was… the requirements for “thunder power” were very high! It had to be incomparably pure thunder power!

But where could one find incomparably pure thunder power?

“Could it be…” Xu Ming looked at Little Cheat with a look of surprise, “Do you even sell thunder power there?”

“Yes!” Little Cheat said, “The Artifact Shop has almost everything!”

“Damn!” Xu Ming couldn't help but curse inwardly, “It's really perverted!”

Violet Lightning Divine Thunder…

A dazzling array of them!

Xu Ming was dazzled: “Little Cheat, recommend one!”

Little Cheat said, “In terms of the best effect, it's definitely Destruction Divine Thunder! It can annihilate particles more thoroughly, and the re-forged particles are also much stronger than other Divine Thunders! However… I recommend Violet Lightning Divine Thunder!”

“Uh… why?” Xu Ming couldn't help but wonder.

“Because you're poor!” Little Cheat said unceremoniously, “Although the effect of Destruction Divine Thunder is the best, it's a hundred times more expensive than Violet Lightning Divine Thunder, and the cost performance is too low!”

“Okay…” Xu Ming was speechless, and thought secretly in his heart, “When I have money in the future, I'll use Destruction Divine Thunder to forge my body!”

For now… he should still be thrifty and economical. According to Little Cheat's suggestion, he should use Violet Lightning Divine Thunder first!

Anyway, using Violet Lightning Divine Thunder a few more times would still catch up with the effect of using Destruction Divine Thunder once; it's just that the speed of cultivation would be slightly slower!

“Slower is slower!” Xu Ming thought helplessly — what could he do if he was poor?

“Little Cheat, besides Violet Lightning Divine Thunder, shouldn't I also use some treasures of the 'life' category?”

After all, Violet Lightning Divine Thunder would annihilate Xu Ming's Divine Body at the particle level; Xu Ming would need to re-forge particles and re-cast his Divine Body, so he would definitely need a lot of life energy!

“No need!” Little Cheat said, “The power of thunder contains terrifying destruction, but it also contains infinite vitality! It's enough for you to recast your Divine Body!”

The power of thunder contains terrifying destruction, but it also contains infinite vitality? — A trace of understanding flashed through Xu Ming's mind, as if he had grasped something, but as if he had understood nothing.

“Then… give me a Violet Lightning Divine Thunder to try first!” Xu Ming wanted to strike while the iron was hot and comprehend the fleeting understanding he had just had.

“Divine Thunder Body Tempering is very painful!” Little Cheat reminded.

Painful?

Xu Ming said disdainfully: “Would I, Brother Ming, be afraid of pain?”

“Oh…” As soon as Little Cheat finished speaking, 10,000 Level-9 Cheat Points were deducted, and at the same time…

Crack!!

A purple Divine Thunder appeared three feet above Xu Ming's head without warning and struck down with a bang.

Instantly, the Violet Lightning Divine Thunder penetrated every inch of Xu Ming's Divine Body, every cell, every particle!

Every particle on Xu Ming's body was annihilated into powder. Even his soul was hard to escape, and was torn into countless pieces under the attack of the Violet Lightning Divine Thunder.

Only the most essential “mind” was unaffected.

“Damn… this is too painful…” The annihilation at the particle level caused Xu Ming's entire mind to tremble in pain.

However, Xu Ming had experienced hundreds of lifetimes of reincarnation after all, and his “mental power” had reached the second level; although it was extremely painful, it was not enough to collapse his mind.

The card is very powerful, there will be two changes today. The climax of installing B will come immediately. I need to sort it out.
