Open up and break into another world

To ask for someone back?

Palace Master Jitian smiled softly and said, "Ziyue, you should know the rules of the Divine Kingdom, right?"

"Of course I know!" Holy Master Ziyue replied.

"Since you know, then come to me. Let's sit down and talk!"

"Okay!"

Holy Master Ziyue transformed into lightning and disappeared from the horizon in the blink of an eye. Not long after, he appeared in Palace Master Jitian's palace.

Palace Master Jitian leisurely brewed tea and smiled, "Sit!"

Holy Master Ziyue sat down as instructed and smiled, "Palace Master is quite leisurely!"

"If I'm not leisurely, what else can I do?" Palace Master Jitian poured a cup of tea and handed it over, his tone full of helplessness. "Having reached my realm, cultivation is already useless, and adventuring and fighting have little meaning. The only thing left is to pursue inner peace and seek a chance for a breakthrough!"

Palace Master Jitian was very clear that it was too difficult for him to break through! It could even be said that there was no hope at all.

After all, Palace Master Jitian had already passed the thirty-sixth floor of the Tongtian Tower; to go further, he could only become a true god!

Become a god?

Even Palace Master Jitian only dared to think about it.

It should be known that throughout endless years and countless eras, countless demigods have emerged in the human race; even those who have passed the thirty-sixth floor of the Tongtian Tower number in the hundreds and thousands. However, in the end, only True God Jiuyu attained godhood.

"Ziyue," Palace Master Jitian continued, "You should know that in the Divine Kingdom, even if a Dao Lord kills someone, they will be severely punished; moreover, that Yang Wei is only a Half-Step Dao Venerable! — If you want to ask for him back, the price is very high!"

"I'm willing to pay the price!" Holy Master Ziyue said directly.

"Oh?" Palace Master Jitian became even more surprised, "Is a Yang Wei with not much talent worth you doing this?"

"It is worth it!" Holy Master Ziyue said, "Yang Wei's ancestor had a past with me, and I cannot stand idly by."

Palace Master Jitian glanced at him meaningfully, "Just because his ancestor had a past with you, you are willing to pay a great price to ask for him back? — Ziyue, this is not your style!"

"Palace Master!" Holy Master Ziyue said directly, "Just tell me the price!"

"Haha…" Palace Master Jitian smiled, "Alright then, same old rules, a demigod-level artifact, and you can redeem him!"

"Okay!" Holy Master Ziyue didn't bargain and directly left behind a demigod-level spear, "Release him!"

"Haha…" Palace Master Jitian waved his hand, and a chain formed by the power of the Heavenly Dao bound Yang Wei and brought him over.

"Holy… Holy Master…" When Yang Wei saw Holy Master Ziyue, his hollow and desperate eyes lit up slightly, then dimmed again.

"Palace Master, I will take my leave first!" Holy Master Ziyue said.

"Go," Palace Master Jitian said casually and continued to leisurely drink his tea.

After Holy Master Ziyue left with the person, Palace Master Jitian slowly stood up, his eyes flashing with a gleam of light.

"Willing to pay a demigod-level artifact for the descendant of an old friend? — Ziyue, does he think I'm a fool!" Palace Master Jitian shook his head, "This lie is not even well thought out!"

However…

Palace Master Jitian knew that Ziyue was lying to him, but he still released the person without saying a word.

"It seems that this Ziyue has some conspiracy!" Palace Master Jitian thought again, "Is it because of Xu Ming? — It's very likely… It seems that he has heard from somewhere that Xu Ming is a 'Million-Year Grade' genius…"

"Ziyue has been secretly suppressing the Manhuang Sect. If he knows that Xu Ming has been tentatively designated as a 'Million-Year Grade' genius, then he will definitely take some conspiracies!"

Although Palace Master Jitian knew in his heart that the decline of the Manhuang Sect was because Ziyue was secretly playing tricks, he couldn't do anything to Ziyue without sufficient evidence.

"Want to use conspiracies to deal with Xu Ming…?" Palace Master Jitian smiled, "Xu Ming's talent and comprehension are indeed very good! However… A precious sword is sharpened by grinding, and even the most heaven-defying genius must undergo tempering to shine — It's a good thing for him to undergo some hardships!"

Palace Master Jitian's eyes were incomparably deep and distant.

"This demigod-level spear is not bad!" Palace Master Jitian picked up the spear and examined it, "If Xu Ming performs brightly enough, then I will reward him with this spear!"

……

Holy Master Ziyue used the power of the Heavenly Dao to grab Yang Wei and came to his palace in the Divine Kingdom.

"Holy Master…" Yang Wei directly knelt on the ground with a "plop" and cried loudly, "Yang Wei is guilty and deserves to die! It's not worth the Holy Master saving me…"

"You are indeed guilty! And you do deserve to die!" Ziyue snorted coldly, "Lin Chen is a rare genius in our Ziyue Holy Land, but you killed him like this… When I heard the news, I really wished you would die!"

"Then…" Yang Wei looked puzzled, "Then why did the Holy Master still save me?"

He saw that the Holy Master even paid the price of a demigod-level artifact to save him!

Yang Wei believed that his life was far less precious than a demigod-level artifact.

Kill Xu Ming?

Yang Wei couldn't help but say, "Of course I also want to kill Xu Ming, but Holy Master… Xu Ming has too many treasures and endless methods; I'm afraid I can't kill him…"

Yang Wei was completely terrified by Xu Ming!

"Don't worry!" Ziyue said, "I don't want you to kill him now! — The ranking battle four years later should be a very good opportunity!"

Yang Wei's eyes lit up, "In the ranking battle, the use of Dao Talismans is prohibited. Fighting with strength, I am definitely not afraid of Xu Ming!"

Yang Wei was a master who had passed the tenth floor of the Tongtian Tower, and he still had this confidence.

However, what Yang Wei didn't know was that Xu Ming's strength had unknowingly surpassed him.

Holy Master Ziyue continued, "To prevent accidents, I will teach you an evil art that burns your life! In these four years, you must diligently cultivate this evil art! When you face Xu Ming on the Heaven's Arena, you must directly burn all your life as soon as you come up, and kill him without giving Xu Ming time to react!"

"Yes!!" Yang Wei still answered without hesitation.

His wife's betrayal had made Yang Wei lose any attachment to life.

If he could use his life to make some contributions to the Holy Land and the Holy Master, then Yang Wei would be very willing.

"Very good!" Holy Master Ziyue became even more satisfied, "Bring your head closer, I want to forcibly instill this evil art into your mind."

Yang Wei honestly stretched his head over.

Immediately —

"Ah!!!!!!!"

Yang Wei felt a taste that was a thousand times more painful than death.

Boom!!

Vast and profound evil art cultivation methods were instilled into Yang Wei's mind.

And blood was constantly evaporating from Yang Wei's body.

When the evil art was completely instilled, Yang Wei became skinny and emaciated.

There seemed to be no flesh between his skin and bones; the skin was directly wrapped around the bones!

His face was the pale color of a dead person.

His pupils had also turned into a deathly gray.

"In these few years, you will stay in my palace and don't show your face!" Ziyue said, "Lest others see your appearance and become suspicious."

"Yes!" Yang Wei had already felt the power of this evil art before he had even cultivated it.
