Open up and break into another world

Having received a definite answer from the little cheat, Xu Ming no longer hesitated.

He would definitely go to the Ancient Remnant World, but not now.

Right now, what Xu Ming wanted to do most was—cultivate the "Divine Phoenix Undying Body"!

The Divine Phoenix Undying Body was simply too powerful! As long as he cultivated the first level, minor injuries would heal instantly; cultivate the second level, and serious injuries would heal instantly; cultivate the third level, and he could even be reborn from a drop of blood!

Such a powerful secret technique was something Xu Ming wanted to learn no matter what.

"Cultivating the first level only requires ten drops of Divine Phoenix Essence! I'll go inherit the secret technique first, and then cultivate the first level!"

Thinking of this, Xu Ming got up and headed straight for the Secret Technique Inheritance Hall.

"First entry into the hall requires the payment of one drop of Divine Phoenix Essence!" The hall spirit's mechanical voice rang out.

More Divine Phoenix Essence!

However, Xu Ming wasn't surprised—in the Chaotic Secret Realm, Divine Phoenix Essence was the absolute hard currency! It was even more useful than Chaotic Source Crystals!

And Xu Ming couldn't help but wonder: "What exactly is Divine Phoenix Essence...? In the endless chaos, it seems that only the Source Grounds have Divine Phoenix Essence; other places simply don't have this stuff!"

Thinking, Xu Ming had already stepped into the Secret Technique Inheritance Hall.

Inside the Inheritance Hall, there were hundreds of secret chambers; each secret chamber represented a cultivation technique or secret skill.

The cultivation techniques and secret skills that could be placed in the Inheritance Hall were naturally extraordinary; at least they were at the World Lord level, or even Half-Step Supreme or Supreme level!

Xu Ming didn't stop at all, heading straight for the inheritance chamber of the "Divine Phoenix Undying Body".

"Accepting the first level inheritance of the 'Divine Phoenix Undying Body' requires the payment of three drops of Divine Phoenix Essence!"

More Divine Phoenix Essence!

And this was just the inheritance of the first level.

Xu Ming paid three drops of Divine Phoenix Essence and pushed the door open to enter.

Entering the inheritance chamber, Xu Ming seemed to have stepped into the endless starry sky.

In the dark starry sky, hundreds of millions of stars twinkled with faint light. Among the endless stars, there was a crimson star that rapidly grew larger in Xu Ming's vision, like a blazing sun.

Then, this sun seemed to experience Nirvana, quickly transforming into a Divine Phoenix. And the entire starry sky seemed to transform into a black cloak of some supreme existence.

The incomparably huge Divine Phoenix that Xu Ming saw, undergoing Nirvana in the starry sky, was like a pattern printed on the black cloak.

Seeing this black cloak, Xu Ming vaguely seemed to see the back view of a supreme existence.

Just then, Xu Ming felt that this formless and shapeless supreme existence turned its head to look at him. In the endless starry sky, two more stars rapidly grew larger, turning into a pair of incomparably huge eyes.

In that instant, countless secret technique inheritances poured into Xu Ming's mind.

"Divine Phoenix Undying Body... First Level!"

Bang!

Instantly, the endless starry sky around Xu Ming dissipated. Xu Ming saw that he was only in an ordinary secret chamber; around him were only four very ordinary walls.

However, Xu Ming knew that he had already obtained the inheritance of the first level of the "Divine Phoenix Undying Body"; next, with a little cultivation, he could quickly master it!

"If you want to obtain the second level of the Divine Phoenix Undying Body, you need to enter the periphery of the Ancient Remnant World and complete a mission!" The hall spirit added.

The periphery of the Ancient Remnant World?

The periphery of the Ancient Remnant World was the wreckage of the Ancient Remnant World, but it didn't enter the River of Time!

In the periphery of the Ancient Remnant World, the flow of time was the same as in the endless chaos, and the level of danger was much lower than in the River of Time! However... after all, it was an endless chaos that had been destroyed in ancient times; no one knew what kind of dangers it would hold!

"What kind of mission do I need to complete?" Xu Ming couldn't help but ask.

"You need to first master the first level of the 'Divine Phoenix Undying Body' to be qualified to know!" The hall spirit said.

"Alright..." Xu Ming said helplessly.

However, since he was already planning to enter the Ancient Remnant World, it was just a matter of going sooner or later, so it didn't matter much.

"The missions in the Chaotic Secret Realm seem to be deliberately luring geniuses into the Ancient Remnant World! Could it be... that there are secrets hidden within the Ancient Remnant World?"

Xu Ming had no way of knowing.

After accepting the inheritance, Xu Ming walked directly out of the Secret Technique Inheritance Hall.

"Hmm?" Just as he walked out the door, Xu Ming saw a figure standing outside the Inheritance Hall, a figure that made his heart palpitate.

This figure had a sloppy appearance, and his eyes were crimson red, flashing with ferocity and madness.

"Xu Ming?" The mad figure spoke, smiling meaningfully.

Xu Ming couldn't help but look at him.

"I am Wu Jun!" The madman's lips curled into a sinister smile. Before Xu Ming could react, he turned and left.

"Inexplicable!" Xu Ming looked in the direction Wu Jun left, a hint of doubt in his eyes.

... ...

After leaving alone, Wu Jun returned directly to his residence.

After fully activating the formation of his residence, the ferocious and mad aura on Wu Jun's body disappeared completely, replaced by incomparable composure and calmness.

"Supreme Lord..." Wu Jun's eyes were incomparably sharp, but also carried a hint of piety, "I have seen Xu Ming!"

"Oh? What do you think... of this person...?" The voice seemed to come from beyond time and space, only echoing in the depths of Wu Jun's heart.

"His talent defies the heavens! No less than mine!" Wu Jun gave his evaluation, "He is qualified to become the 'Lord's' most loyal servant!"

"I also think that Xu Ming is very extraordinary! Find an opportunity to make him..."

"Yes!" Wu Jun bowed slightly, "It's just... within the Chaotic Secret Realm, it is difficult for me to find an opportunity to attack Xu Ming! However, since he has cultivated the first level of the Divine Phoenix Undying Body, he will definitely want to cultivate the second level; when he enters the Ancient Remnant World, it will be my chance!"

"Very good... so much the better!" After leaving these few words, the figure never appeared again.

Wu Jun opened the door, and the ferocious and mad aura on his body returned again.

"Since Xu Ming will definitely go to the Ancient Remnant World, then I will go to the Ancient Remnant World first and wait, to make some arrangements!"

Boom!!

Wu Jun directly flashed away, rapidly heading towards the direction of the Ancient Remnant World.

... ...

Xu Ming naturally knew nothing about Wu Jun's actions.

After leaving the Secret Technique Inheritance Hall, he did not rush back to cultivate the Divine Phoenix Undying Body, but went to the Source of the Divine Phoenix first.

"I always feel that the Source of the Divine Phoenix is very important to my cultivation!" This was Xu Ming's intuition, "If I cultivate the Divine Phoenix Undying Body, I'm afraid that during the cultivation, my cultivation level may directly break through to the Profound Yellow Realm! While I'm still at the Chaotic Realm, I'll go to the Source of the Divine Phoenix first to see what's inside!"
