Open up and break into another world

Whoosh!

Xu Ming flipped open the Book of Life and Death, and a brush suddenly appeared in his right hand.

The first target, without a doubt — Cheng Chong!

The person Xu Ming most wanted to kill was undoubtedly Cheng Chong; and among the four ten-star deities, the wealthiest should also be Cheng Chong, the commander of the Golden Crow Guard.

“To kill a ten-star deity with the Book of Life and Death actually requires two hundred million Grade-9 Cheat Points!” Xu Ming was secretly shocked. “Two hundred million it is! Anyway, the divine crystals I can obtain from killing Cheng Chong will definitely be far more than two hundred million!”

During the auction earlier, Cheng Chong had bid a high price of over six hundred million divine crystals; it was evident that Cheng Chong should have over six hundred million divine crystals on him!

Therefore, killing Cheng Chong was definitely a sure-win deal!

“Hmm?” Commander Cheng Chong’s eyes showed some doubt. “What’s going on? For some reason, I actually feel a burst of palpitations…”

Meanwhile, Xu Ming boldly wrote on the Book of Life and Death: Cheng Chong!

A karmic attack instantly released from the Book of Life and Death, killing towards Cheng Chong!

Yes, the Book of Life and Death contained the mysteries of the “Dao of Karma”! The trajectory of this lethal attack released by the Book of Life and Death was precisely along the karmic thread between the Book of Life and Death and Cheng Chong!

“Hmm!?” Cheng Chong immediately felt a deadly killing intent approaching.

“Karmic attack!” Daoist Qidao, who was skilled in the Dao of Karma, saw it very clearly. “The black book in this kid’s hand is a karmic attack treasure!?”

What shocked Daoist Qidao even more was that this karmic attack was extremely powerful, even more powerful than the karmic attacks he cast!

“Just how many treasures does this kid have… Just the ones I’ve seen so far include a teleportation treasure, a protective treasure, and a karmic treasure; I wonder if he’s hiding any other treasures!” Daoist Qidao couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. “Could it be… that this kid has a big background?”

City Lord Lu and the others were also somewhat shocked: “Karmic treasure… Just what is Xu Ming’s background? Even I don’t have such a treasure; yet he has one after another!”

All the experts present misunderstood that Xu Ming possessed significant treasures, and even suspected that Xu Ming had a “big background”.

Whoosh—

The Book of Life and Death’s attack instantly arrived before Commander Cheng Chong.

“Hmph!” Daoist Qidao coldly snorted, “Using a karmic treasure to cast a karmic attack? — In front of me, it’s nothing more than showing off your axe before Lu Ban!”

Swish!

Daoist Qidao’s figure flashed, and he had already arrived before Commander Cheng Chong.

Then, Daoist Qidao directly grabbed the karmic thread connecting the Book of Life and Death and Cheng Chong, and then gently tugged it.

“Hmm? Can’t break it!”

Daoist Qidao was stunned, and then tugged it heavily again.

“Still can’t break it!?”

Daoist Qidao was shocked — what a tenacious karmic thread! With his attainments in the Dao of Karma, he couldn’t even break this karmic thread.

Boom!

The karmic thread was not broken, and the karmic attack instantly transmitted to Cheng Chong along the karmic thread.

Commander Cheng Chong’s body was perfectly intact, but his eyes suddenly became incomparably terrified. Then, all of Cheng Chong’s “karma” instantly dissipated!

In this world, there was no longer Cheng Chong’s “karma”!

Bang!

Cheng Chong, dead!

Whoosh!

At the instant Cheng Chong died, Xu Ming instantly teleported to Cheng Chong’s side and directly collected his world ring!

“You…” Daoist Qidao only felt a burning pain on his cheek — it wasn’t because he had received Xu Ming’s “Forced Face-Slapping” Cheat, but because he had slapped his own face.

Just a second ago, Daoist Qidao had said with incomparable aloofness: Using a karmic treasure to cast a karmic attack? In front of me, it’s nothing more than showing off your axe before Lu Ban!

Then, in the next instant, Cheng Chong died right before him!

Tell me, wasn’t this Daoist Qidao slapping his own face?

“Cheng Chong is dead…” The experts like City Lord Lu all felt somewhat complicated.

Like City Lord Lu, although he didn’t get along very well with Cheng Chong, they had at least fought for countless years; now, seeing Cheng Chong die, City Lord Lu actually faintly felt a sense of rabbit-dying-fox-grieving.

At the same time, City Lord Lu became even more certain in his heart: “This Xu Ming possesses several significant treasures, I’m afraid he really has a big background… Should I first find a way to improve my relationship with him?”

City Lord Lu would never have imagined that Xu Ming didn’t have a big background, but rather… had a Cheat!

“What a powerful karmic treasure!” Above the dome, Divine Emperor Yan Yan was also secretly somewhat shocked.

At the same time, Divine Emperor Yan Yan also secretly pondered Xu Ming’s origins: “I haven’t heard of any force in the Divine Realm having such a genius…”

Suddenly, Divine Emperor Yan Yan’s two watery eyes revealed a sly smile: “I don’t care which force’s genius he is, as long as I see him and bring him back to Divine Mountain Yan Yan, he’ll be the genius of my Divine Mountain Yan Yan!”

…

Xu Ming ignored Daoist Qidao and the shocked gazes around him, and instantly refined Cheng Chong’s world ring!

“Divine crystals! Over six hundred million! — Not bad!”

“Divine crystals! Thirteen! — Damn, that’s too little!”

Xu Ming simply didn’t know how precious divine crystals were! You must know that even a divine crystal mine wouldn’t necessarily have a single divine crystal!

A divine crystal was even more precious than a hundred million divine crystals!

Cheng Chong had also been the commander of the Golden Crow Guard for hundreds of millions of years, and had only managed to save up these thirteen divine crystals with great difficulty; as a result, Xu Ming took them all in one go!

“Little Cheat, how many Grade-10 Cheat Points does it take to kill Daoist Qidao?” Xu Ming immediately asked.

“One hundred!” Little Cheat replied.

“One hundred… That’s one hundred divine crystals…” Xu Ming was somewhat helpless — the Cheng Chong, who he thought was the wealthiest, only had thirteen divine crystals on him; then how many divine crystals would the other three ten-star deities have?

Whoosh!

Xu Ming teleported again, away from Daoist Qidao; at the same time, he flipped open the Book of Life and Death and identified the next target — Mountain Master Dan Chen!

“Mountain Master Dan Chen is skilled in alchemy, he should be relatively wealthy!” Xu Ming thought to himself.

After all, an alchemy master could easily earn money just by selling a few pills!

“Mountain Master Dan Chen!” Xu Ming wrote Mountain Master Dan Chen’s name with a stroke of the pen, drew a cross, and another karmic attack killed over along the karmic thread between the Book of Life and Death and Mountain Master Dan Chen.

“Kid, you…” Daoist Qidao was furious! — Although he didn’t have much of a relationship with Mountain Master Dan Chen; but now, Mountain Master Dan Chen was at least on the same front as him! If his teammates were wantonly slaughtered by Xu Ming, Daoist Qidao would feel very embarrassed!

However, this time, Daoist Qidao had learned to be smart! He knew that he couldn’t stop Xu Ming’s karmic attack, so he directly used “besieging Wei to rescue Zhao”.

“Die!!”

Daoist Qidao flicked his finger, and a karmic attack killed out from the karmic thread between him and Xu Ming.

Watching the karmic attack approach, Xu Ming felt somewhat pained for his Cheat Points — after all, resisting Daoist Qidao’s attack once would consume tens of millions of Grade-9 Cheat Points! Moreover, Daoist Qidao’s attack was unavoidable; unless, Xu Ming could also cut off the karmic thread like Daoist Qidao!

Xu Ming secretly raged in his heart: “Hmph! Daoist Qidao, you better pray that I don’t get a hundred divine crystals; otherwise, I will definitely kill you!”

But at this moment, a scene that surprised Xu Ming occurred!

Boom!!!

A mesmerizing saber light instantly slashed through the void between Xu Ming and Daoist Qidao.

“What’s going on?” Xu Ming was stunned.

“This is…?” Daoist Qidao was also stunned.

Bang!

The karmic thread between Xu Ming and Daoist Qidao was directly severed by this dazzling saber light.

Breaking the law with force!

With the karmic thread broken, Daoist Qidao’s karmic attack naturally failed.

At this time, Xu Ming and Daoist Qidao discovered the owner of the saber light.

“City Lord Lu?” Xu Ming of course knew that the strong man standing beside Lu Shuai, holding a long saber in his hand, was none other than Lu Luping, the City Lord of Golden Crow City!

However, this was also what Xu Ming was puzzled about — why did City Lord Lu take action to help him?

“Lu Luping!” Daoist Qidao directly coldly shouted, “You dare to meddle in my business!?”

“Hmph!” At this time, City Lord Lu looked righteous and awe-inspiring, “Little friend Xu Ming is a good friend of my son Lu Shuai, how can I allow you to deal with him casually!?”

At this moment, City Lord Lu was righteous, his words were stern, and he seemed to have transformed into fairness and justice!

“Uh…” Lu Shuai was immediately speechless — when did his old man become so righteous and awe-inspiring? Besides, if he wanted to help Xu Ming, why didn’t he take action just now, only taking action now?

No one knows a father better than his son!

Lu Shuai quickly reacted — his old man probably felt that Xu Ming had a big background and a big origin, so he wanted to take this opportunity to build a good relationship with Xu Ming!

Lu Shuai secretly wiped away a handful of awkward cold sweat: “This is too unprincipled… I can’t accept that my dad is a bootlicker…”
