Open up and break into another world

“How about… making a high-profile move and playing a big game?”

The smile on Xu Ming's face was extremely wicked—he remembered the lower-grade Dao-Venerate-level formation disc he had obtained earlier.

The "Myriad Flowers Illusory Sea" Formation Disc had two requirements for use: first, the comprehension of illusion-type formations must reach the pinnacle of Dao-Lord level; second, it required the consumption of a large number of Dao Stones.

Previously, Xu Ming had no intention of using this formation disc at all, because he neither understood formations nor had Dao Stones.

But now, Xu Ming had Dao Stones!

As for formation comprehension?—Xu Ming had already broken through to the Dao-Lord level and opened the Level 5 Artifact Shop. Formation comprehension? Buy it! Directly buy it to the pinnacle of Dao-Lord!

“Once I refine and control this formation disc, I will set up the 'Myriad Flowers Illusory Sea' illusion formation at the exit of the Mountain-River World… Heh heh heh heh…”

Xu Ming's eyes narrowed into wicked crescent shapes.

You must know that the conditions for winning the Dao-Fate Battle are: gathering eight hundred Nine-Colored Stones and successfully leading the top one thousand geniuses out of the Mountain-River World.

And there is only one exit from the Mountain-River World!

If Xu Ming blocked the exit with an illusion formation…

Hehe, sorry! None of the hundred thousand geniuses in the Mountain-River World will be able to get out!

In that case, Xu Ming would directly control the fate of all the geniuses!—Whoever Brother Ming wants to win the Dao-Fate Battle, will win; whoever Brother Ming doesn't want to win, even if they have eight thousand or eighty thousand Nine-Colored Stones, it will be useless, and they can only obediently accept the fate of defeat!

Some people may ask, isn't Xu Ming afraid of other geniuses joining forces to break the formation?

Break it!

Go ahead and break it!

The "Myriad Flowers Illusory Sea" is a Dao-Venerate-level formation, and it's also an illusion formation. Try breaking it for me!

If it were a Dao-Venerate-level "Entrapment Formation," then tens of thousands of geniuses joining forces could still break the formation with brute force.

But with an "Illusion Formation," then it's really hehe… No matter how many Dao-Lords join forces, they simply can't attack the core of the formation! This kind of formation simply can't be broken by Dao-Lord-level cultivators!

As for Lin Chen…

If Xu Ming blocked the exit of the Mountain-River World, it would be equivalent to cornering a dog to beat it. No matter how much Lin Chen jumps around, the result will always be—he can't leave the Mountain-River World!

When the time comes, Xu Ming will have plenty of ways to torment Lin Chen!

“Okay, let's do it this way!”

What Xu Ming needed to do now was—instantly learn the Dao of Formations!

“Little Cheat, tell me, how can I most quickly increase my comprehension of illusion formations to the Dao-Lord limit?”

Little Cheat immediately listed a pile of "teaching materials":《Basics of Formation Dao (Instant Learning Edition)》,《Advanced Formation Dao (Instant Learning Edition)》,《Application of Formation Dao (Instant Learning Edition)》,《Detailed Explanation of Formation Dao Principles (Instant Learning Edition)》,《Analysis of Formation Energy Transmission (Instant Learning Edition)》,《Thirty-Six Thousand Common Layouts of Basic Illusion Formations (Instant Learning Edition)》…

Hundreds of sets of formation-related teaching materials made Xu Ming sigh: “The Dao of Formations is indeed vast and profound! Even if they are all instant learning editions, it will take me several days to learn them all!”

Xu Ming didn't dawdle either. He directly found a place to hide and pretended to be consolidating his newly broken-through realm, but in reality, he was frantically instantly learning the Dao of Formations in his mind.

“He's from the Savage Sect!”

“So it's the Savage Sect… No wonder such a genius could appear!” This Ye Family expert still had some reverence for the foundation of the Savage Sect. Hearing that Xu Ming was from the Savage Sect, he immediately felt that it made much more sense.

Island Lord Xing Li of Heartlake Island, however, had a very ugly expression—no matter who it was, when they discovered that their enemy was much stronger than they had imagined, their expression probably wouldn't be good.

“I asked an old friend to come forward and let Lin Chen deal with Xu Ming in the Dao-Fate Battle. But as a result, Xu Ming stepped on Lin Chen and became famous in one fell swoop…” Xing Li felt a headache, but he was helpless, “After the Dao-Fate Battle, Xu Ming will probably go to the 'God Country' to cultivate; at that time, I will have even less way to deal with him!”

The God Country is the most sacred holy land of the entire human race, and it is also the reliance on which the human race passes on its heritage and remains prosperous!

With Xing Li's status, he didn't even have the qualifications to touch the gate of the God Country, let alone deal with Xu Ming in the God Country.

“Xu Ming's current strength is already comparable to a Sixth-Step Dao-Lord! When he comes out of the God Country, he will probably be even stronger than me…”

Xing Li was anxious, but he didn't have any way to deal with it.

At this time, an arrogant and domineering voice rang in Xing Li's ear: “Xing Li, I heard that the young island lord of your Heartlake Island was miserably ravaged by Xu Ming?”

Xing Li turned to look, and the person who came was a half-step Dao-Venerate with a fierce face.

“Ba Cangqiong!” Xing Li coldly shouted at him unceremoniously, “What's it to you!”

Ba Cangqiong seemed not to have heard Xing Li's scolding, and instead smiled cheaply: “Why do you have such an ugly face? Even peerless geniuses like Lin Chen and Yun Fan were ravaged by Xu Ming; for your good-for-nothing son to be qualified to be ravaged by Xu Ming is his luck!”

Ba Cangqiong obviously didn't get along well with Xing Li, so he came here specifically to mock him.

Xing Li's face turned purple with anger—even if his son was really a good-for-nothing, when would it be up to outsiders to say so?

Moreover, Xing Li had personally witnessed that Xing Tianyun had been practicing hard every day since being hit by Xu Ming! After three years, the current Xing Tianyun was no longer the good-for-nothing of the past; Xing Li was even considering whether to pass on the position of Island Lord of Heartlake Island to Xing Tianyun in the future.

…

Three days later.

Xu Ming emerged from seclusion.

“The Dao of Formations is indeed incomparably complex! I bought all the instant learning editions of formation knowledge, and it still took me three days to learn them!!”

And the key is that Xu Ming only learned the superficial knowledge!

“The Dao of Formations is vast and profound. Although I only learned the superficial knowledge, it is more than enough to use the 'Myriad Flowers Illusory Sea' formation disc!”

Xu Ming then refined this formation disc.

Refining a formation disc requires a certain level of attainment in the Dao of Formations. Previously, Xu Ming's attainment in the Dao of Formations was almost zero, so of course, he couldn't refine it; but now, Xu Ming's understanding of illusion formations had reached the pinnacle of the Dao-Lord level, so refining the formation disc was naturally not difficult.

Everything was ready, and Xu Ming directly detected the location of the exit of the Mountain-River World—it was an ancient teleportation gate located in a secluded mountain stream.

Before long, Xu Ming appeared here, and in his hand, he was holding the "Myriad Flowers Illusory Sea" formation disc.

The human race experts outside were all talking and laughing.

“Look, that Xu Ming seems to be coming out through the exit! In this Dao-Fate Battle, there is finally the first genius to win… Huh? Wait! What is Xu Ming holding in his hand? It seems to be the 'Myriad Flowers Illusory Sea' formation disc?—What is he going to do?”
