Open up and break into another world

“Fifty billion!”

Xu Ming's voice was very calm, as if he wasn't talking about “fifty billion divine crystals,” but rather “fifty billion taels of gold.”

“Huh? How much?” The Extreme Heaven Palace Master's expression instantly turned blank; he directly began to doubt his own ears, “How much did you say? I didn't hear clearly, say it again…”

You must know, the Extreme Heaven Palace Master was a Ninth-Order Demigod!

Could it be possible that a dignified Ninth-Order Demigod's ears weren't working properly? — Of course not!

It could only be said that the Extreme Heaven Palace Master would rather suspect that there was a problem with his ears than believe that he had heard the words “fifty billion.”

Xu Ming immediately repeated, “Fifty billion!”

Thump!

Because he was too shocked, the Extreme Heaven Palace Master didn't sit properly and fell directly to the ground on his butt.

The Extreme Heaven Palace Master!

A Ninth-Order Demigod!

The Leader of the Human Race!

Actually falling to the ground because he didn't sit properly… Who would believe it if this was said out loud?

The Extreme Heaven Palace Master climbed back onto his seat with a face full of shock: “Xu… Xu Ming, you're not lying to me?”

“Why would I lie to you?” Xu Ming said unhappily.

In the Battle of Golden Crow City, the divine crystals that Xu Ming harvested alone reached fifty billion! Adding up all sorts of miscellaneous treasures, their value also exceeded fifty billion! There were also those thousand Divine Crystals, which, if exchanged for divine crystals, would be worth at least a hundred billion… Moreover, they were priceless!

Although Xu Ming had spent a lot of divine crystals “remotely slapping” Li Xiujie, Xu Ming was already being very low-key by reporting that he had fifty billion divine crystals!

Originally, Xu Ming even wanted to take out the Divine Crystals and talk to the Extreme Heaven Palace Master about them; however, seeing the Extreme Heaven Palace Master's shocked appearance, he was really worried that if he said the value of those thousand Divine Crystals, he would scare the Extreme Heaven Palace Master to death.

“I better not say anything more…” Xu Ming thought to himself.

And the Extreme Heaven Palace Master was still shocked by the “fifty billion divine crystals” that Xu Ming had said, unable to extricate himself.

“Fifty billion divine crystals… How many divine crystals is that…” The Extreme Heaven Palace Master was already unable to imagine it.

After the Extreme Heaven Palace Master calmed down a little, Xu Ming said again: “Actually… there are many treasures in the Divine Domain that can help people attain Dao and become Gods! Moreover, for me now, buying these treasures is not difficult!”

The Extreme Heaven Palace Master had been in control of the Human Race for thousands of years, how shrewd he was; instantly, he understood the meaning behind Xu Ming's words: “Xu Ming, you want to help the experts of our Human Race… attain Dao and become Gods?”

“That's right!” Xu Ming had come for this matter.

“But…” The Extreme Heaven Palace Master immediately thought of a problem, “How do you transport the treasures you buy in the Divine Domain back to the Endless Continent?”

Xu Ming smiled and said, “I have my own ways!”

In fact, Xu Ming didn't need to buy any treasures in the Divine Domain at all; he could just let the Destiny Stream Clone buy them in the Artifact Shop! — However, Xu Ming would of course not reveal this secret, so he casually brushed it off.

“In that case…” The Extreme Heaven Palace Master fell into deep thought, “How many Human Race experts are you prepared to help attain Dao and become Gods? One? Or two?”

Xu Ming smiled faintly: “All of the Human Race's Demigods!”

After speaking, Xu Ming added another sentence: “Including those Human Race seniors in the Eternal Silence Cave!”

In the Eternal Silence Cave, there were about nine hundred Human Race Demigods!

“Xu Ming…” The Extreme Heaven Palace Master's mouth was open so wide that he could stuff ten eggs in it, “You mean… to let all of our Human Race's thousand Demigods become Gods!?”

The Extreme Heaven Palace Master simply couldn't believe such a scene!

A thousand Gods?

If the Human Race really produced a thousand Gods, then how prosperous would the Human Race be?

It was simply unimaginable!

“That's right, all of them will become Gods!” Xu Ming took a sip of tea and said calmly.

Xu Ming had been to the Divine Domain and seen the world; his horizons were completely different from the Extreme Heaven Palace Master's!

A thousand Gods was indeed an unimaginably terrifying force in the Microcosm.

But in the Divine Domain… a thousand Gods were completely a joke!

Take the Lower-Ranked Divine City “Golden Crow City” as an example; the Golden Crow Guards alone numbered… tens of millions! Moreover, the weakest among the Golden Crow Guards were all Three-Star Gods!

As for how many Gods there were in the Golden Crow City's jurisdiction, one could only say… it was impossible to count!

A hundred billion?

A trillion?

Ten trillion?

It was completely impossible to count!

Therefore, a thousand Gods was an unimaginable concept for the Extreme Heaven Palace Master; but for Xu Ming, it was nothing at all! Xu Ming could easily wipe out a thousand Gods with a single breath!

“Xu Ming, could it be that you can get a thousand Dao Attainment Fruits?” the Extreme Heaven Palace Master asked in horror.

“Dao Attainment Fruit?” Xu Ming smiled and shook his head, “No! The Dao Attainment Fruit is actually not a good thing!”

“Ah?” The Extreme Heaven Palace Master couldn't imagine that the Dao Attainment Fruit, which only existed in legends, had actually become “not a good thing” in Xu Ming's mouth.

Xu Ming continued, “If you use the Dao Attainment Fruit to attain Dao and become a God, your own Heavenly Dao foundation will be completely destroyed! Even if you successfully become a God, you will only be the weakest among the Gods, and you will never be able to make any progress! Moreover… the Dao Attainment Fruit's requirements for willpower are extremely harsh; those with slightly weak willpower will be committing suicide by using the Dao Attainment Fruit!”

The Extreme Heaven Palace Master listened with a bitter smile in his heart: But even so, wasn't the Dao Attainment Fruit still a treasure that the entire Human Race dreamed of but couldn't obtain?

“Then… what treasure are you going to use to allow our Human Race's Demigods to all become Gods?” the Extreme Heaven Palace Master asked.

“Godfiend Essence!” Xu Ming said, “Extreme Heaven Palace Master, you may not have heard of this treasure. Godfiend Essence is actually not a very precious treasure in the Divine Domain; one drop can be bought for ten thousand divine crystals; and with just one drop, a Demigod can directly attain Dao and become a God!”

Ten thousand divine crystals for one drop… Only a nouveau riche like Xu Ming could say it so easily.

Experts like Five-Star Gods and Six-Star Gods were considered experts in the Divine Domain, but it was impossible for them to be willing to spend ten thousand divine crystals to buy a drop of Godfiend Essence for a Demigod to use.

“Moreover…” Xu Ming continued, “Godfiend Essence has very obvious advantages compared to the Dao Attainment Fruit! — First of all, Godfiend Essence is very gentle in nature, and there is almost no danger to life after using it; even a First-Order Demigod can use it with confidence. Moreover, those who use Godfiend Essence to attain Dao and become Gods will also damage their foundation, but not as completely as the Dao Attainment Fruit; therefore, those who use Godfiend Essence to attain Dao and become Gods will still have the hope of improving their strength in the future, it's just that… the space for improvement will be relatively small!”

Damn!

The Extreme Heaven Palace Master only wanted to say — This Godfiend Essence was simply a perfect treasure!

As for the space for improving strength after becoming a God being relatively small… was that even a matter?

For a group of Demigods who could only wait for death if they couldn't become Gods, could this be considered a disadvantage?
