Open up and break into another world

Within the Primal Chaos Secret Realm, two geniuses were sitting opposite each other, drinking tea.

These two geniuses were no ordinary individuals; at the Profound Yellow Realm level, their strength ranked second and third respectively. Even in a place like the Primal Chaos Secret Realm, which gathered top geniuses, they were nearly invincible among their peers!

“Xu Ming?”

Upon hearing this name, both geniuses were somewhat puzzled: “Within the Primal Chaos Secret Realm, there doesn't seem to be anyone called ‘Xu Ming,’ right? Is he a newly advanced Profound Yellow Realm genius from this era's Myriad Domain Genius Battle?”

“Having just arrived at the Primal Chaos Secret Realm and daring to challenge geniuses from previous eras… just how ignorant must this Xu Ming be! Should we go and watch this duel?”

“It's just a farce! But… it wouldn't hurt to go and see, just to relax!”

…

Elsewhere, a genius ranked eightieth couldn't help but curse inwardly: “Damn, Huang Yu is really shameless! If I had known, I would have squeezed those newcomers too!”

In the Primal Chaos Secret Realm, there were only one hundred Profound Yellow Realm geniuses in total; excluding Xu Ming and his group of ten, that meant there were only ninety others! Ranking eightieth was already a very low ranking!

However, it was only those with low rankings who would think of doing things like 'squeezing newcomers'; those with slightly better rankings would obtain Divine Phoenix Essence through other means, not stooping to bully newcomers. For example… directly squeezing Huang Yu!

…

“Hahahaha…” When Huang Yu received Xu Ming's challenge, he was naturally overjoyed. “Five drops of Divine Phoenix Essence? Not bad! Not bad!”

Huang Yu had originally only wanted to squeeze out three to five drops of Divine Phoenix Essence! After all, if he squeezed too hard, these newcomers might choose to 'break rather than bend'; if that happened, Huang Yu would have worked for nothing!

“I originally thought it would take thousands, even tens of thousands of years, to squeeze out Divine Phoenix Essence; I didn't expect that this Xu Ming would be so impatient. I hadn't even done anything to him yet, and he already took the initiative to challenge me!” Huang Yu laughed gleefully. “Very well, I'll let him know just how big the gap is between newcomers and veterans!”

Just as Huang Yu was feeling pleased with himself, a figure radiating murderous intent came to his door.

“Huang Yu, congratulations! Quite the harvest you've got!”

“Brother Cheng Xuan!” Huang Yu hurriedly went out to greet him.

Cheng Xuan, ranked forty-second among the Profound Yellow Realm geniuses in the Primal Chaos Secret Realm; his strength was not something Huang Yu could compare to!

“Huang Yu, you really have some good methods! Earning five drops of Divine Phoenix Essence in just over a hundred years; even if I worked myself to death for hundreds of billions of years, I would hardly earn a single drop!” Cheng Xuan said with emotion.

Divine Phoenix Essence was naturally not so easy to obtain. Otherwise, Huang Yu wouldn't have abandoned his dignity and resorted to any means necessary for a few drops of Divine Phoenix Essence.

“It's not in my hands yet!” Huang Yu said modestly.

“The challenge has already been issued, and the Primal Chaos First Battle Stage has already registered this duel. What could possibly go wrong?” Cheng Xuan laughed. “Even if Xu Ming doesn't dare to accept the challenge, those five drops of Divine Phoenix Essence must be given to you!”

As for whether Huang Yu was Xu Ming's opponent? No one in the entire Primal Chaos Secret Realm would think that way! Except for Xu Ming.

“That's true!” Huang Yu also laughed—he certainly believed that he was guaranteed to earn these five drops of Divine Phoenix Essence!

Five drops of Divine Phoenix Essence, which were difficult to earn even in an era, were about to be earned by him… Huang Yu's mood was naturally very good!

One should know that Divine Phoenix Essence was not only an extremely precious cultivation resource; moreover, it was also the 'hard currency' within the Primal Chaos Secret Realm! Here, Divine Phoenix Essence was a hundred times more useful than Primal Chaos Source Crystals!

“I say, Huang Yu, I, Cheng Xuan, have always treated you quite well, right?” Cheng Xuan suddenly said.

“That's natural!” Huang Yu nodded repeatedly—now that the other party had asked such a question, no matter what, Huang Yu could only say "yes."

“Then I have something I need your help with, and you can't refuse!” Cheng Xuan revealed a bit of his fox tail.

“Hmm?” Huang Yu was startled and already felt that something was amiss; but now, Cheng Xuan was staring at him intently, so how could he answer?

“I won't refuse!” Huang Yu said those four words with difficulty.

Cheng Xuan nodded in satisfaction: “Very good! It's not in vain that I usually take care of you!—It's like this, I want to try to break through the Divine Phoenix Tower again, but… I don't have any Divine Phoenix Essence on hand!”

Challenging the Divine Phoenix Tower could yield many rewards; but each time, one drop of Divine Phoenix Essence had to be paid as an entrance fee!

“I want to borrow a drop of Divine Phoenix Essence from you!” Cheng Xuan finally revealed his purpose. “I'll return it to you when I come out of the Divine Phoenix Tower!”

Borrow… Divine Phoenix Essence?

Huang Yu naturally understood that this was not 'borrowing' at all! It was clearly an attempt to take a share of his profits!

As for Cheng Xuan saying 'return'—unless Huang Yu was a fool, he would never believe that the other party would return it!

“But…” Huang Yu thought for a moment, thinking of an excuse to refuse. “I only have five drops of Divine Phoenix Essence, which I need to use as a bet! So… I may not be able to lend it to Brother Cheng Xuan for the time being!”

“A bet?” Cheng Xuan sneered. “Are you saying you might lose in your battle with Xu Ming?”

“Of course not!” Huang Yu said.

“Since you won't lose, what does it matter whether you have a bet on you or not? Besides, your duel is in three months… By that time, I might have already come out of the Divine Phoenix Tower and returned the Divine Phoenix Essence to you!” Cheng Xuan laughed.

“This…” Huang Yu still wanted to find other excuses—seeing Cheng Xuan's attitude, he was even more certain that 'borrowing' meant 'giving away'!

“Hurry up!” Cheng Xuan suddenly shouted. “It's just a drop of Divine Phoenix Essence, isn't it? Hurry up and give it to me!”

Huang Yu was startled by this outburst of power and had no choice but to reluctantly hand over a drop of Divine Phoenix Essence!

Cheng Xuan, having taken a share of the profits, naturally left cheerfully.

Huang Yu's seclusion was still a step too late!—Cheng Xuan had just left when three more top-ranked geniuses came to his door as a group, each “borrowing” a drop of Divine Phoenix Essence.

Huang Yu understood the temperament of these people too well—they were good at owing but bad at repaying!

In other words, Huang Yu hadn't even seen Xu Ming's Divine Phoenix Essence yet, and he had already given away four drops! Even if he could win Xu Ming's five drops of Divine Phoenix Essence in the duel three months later; then, the real amount that would arrive to his hands would only be one drop!

What's more… could Huang Yu win?

After finally sending away the three "robbers" who had come in a group, Huang Yu dared not hesitate and immediately activated the formation of his house and entered "seclusion."
