Lu Ning's words startled both Li Yang and Xuan Xu beside him.

Li Yang's lips twitched slightly: "I would like to, but I'm afraid I can't. Once I become a god, I will be corrupted, that's beyond doubt."

Lu Ning calmly said, "It's alright, as long as you want it. I can absorb the pollution during your godhood process now."

Upon hearing this, both Li Yang and Xuan Xu widened their eyes and began to breathe heavily.

The two men stared intently at Lu Ning.

Xuanxu exclaimed in surprise, "Really?! Lu Ning, you can absorb it now?!"

Lu Ning nodded: "Okay, that's fine."

Li Yang immediately smiled with delight, then his eyes hardened: "I want to!"

Lu Ning nodded: "I'm available anytime, depending on when you plan to break through."

Li Yang also said excitedly, "I can do it anytime. I've been stuck at the limit of a high-level demigod for a long time. If I hadn't stayed in the River of Destiny for so long, I might not have been able to resist the temptation of becoming a god."

Lu Ning nodded: "Let's do it today then. By the way, can Luo Xingchen and Yan Bing also become gods?"

Li Yang thought for a moment and said, "It should be fine. I'll go and inform them."

Lu Ning nodded, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "Also, inform those exiled demigods. I promised them that once they can absorb the spiritual pollution during the process of becoming gods, I will help them become gods."

Li Yang nodded, then said expectantly, "Good, we now have more than thirty high-level demigods on our side. If they can all become gods, then we will have more than thirty gods on our side. Even if the mist invades, we will have enough power to resist, right?"

Lu Ning nodded: "Perhaps."

Afterwards, Li Yang hurriedly left to find Bai Yuan and inform the other demigods.

Before long, all the demigods gathered in the plaza of the Mist Bureau headquarters.

Three hundred or so demigod-level powerhouses stood densely packed together, all of them looking at Lu Ning with expectant expressions.

Needless to say, Bai Yuan had already explained the situation when she went to inform the exiled demigod.

All the high-ranking exiled demigods were hoping that Lu Ning could help them break through to the god level, and to the god level that would not be corrupted!

Although low- to mid-level exiled demigods cannot break through, they still have high hopes.

After all, once they reach the high-level demigod level, they also have a chance to break through to the god level.

This is naturally good news for them.

However, since they had not yet witnessed Lu Ning helping a high-level demigod break through, they were filled with anticipation, but also a sense of tension and worry.

What if it fails?

Lu Ning looked at the anxious exiled demigods, then at Li Yang and the others, and said, "The commotion might be quite big, let's go to the sky."

Luo Xingchen suggested, "How about we go to the vacuum outside of Earth? Wouldn't that be safer?"

Lu Ning shook his head: "No, it's inside the barrier. This barrier can block the gaze from the mist."

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the many demigods changed slightly.

Since Lu Ning said they could withstand the gaze from the mist, then there must be something watching them.

They may not feel it now, but once they break through, they will inevitably connect with the mist in the process, and the gaze from the unknown entity may be cast upon them.

This attention must be accompanied by great danger, otherwise Lu Ning wouldn't be so cautious.

Li Yang took a deep breath, his expression turning serious: "Alright, let's begin high in the air in this uninhabited area."

Lu Ning nodded slightly: "Okay."

The group took to the air and left Base City 1.

All the humans in the base city watched the departing demigods with curiosity.

No one else knew about the breakthrough.

However, once the breakthrough begins, the commotion will be significant, and people in the surrounding base cities will likely become aware of it.

The entire group consisted of demigods, and their speed was extremely fast.

In just a few moments, they found a suitable area. Below was a barren plain, with no base city in the surrounding thousands of kilometers.

The group cleared away the diseased creatures, calamity beasts, and monsters materialized from the mist phantoms in the surrounding area.

Then all the demigods dispersed and surrounded Li Yang and Lu Ning.

Li Yang took a deep breath, looked at Lu Ning, and asked, "Uncle, shall I begin now?"

Lu Ning nodded: "We can start anytime."

Upon hearing this, Li Yang closed his eyes slightly and adjusted his state.

Soon, his mind cleared, and he regained his composure.

After that, Li Yang's spiritual power began to surge, and beautiful threads appeared around him.

The silk threads, in various colors, swirled and danced around Li Yang.

Some threads connect Li Yang, while others connect to the void at one end.

Some of the threads even connected with the surrounding demigods.

Apart from Lu Ning, all demigods have corresponding threads.

This caused the surrounding demigods to slightly change their expressions, and they retreated one after another.

However, even after they retreated hundreds of kilometers, the silk threads remained.

Soon, they discovered that the threads did not appear to be harmful.

"Is this the thread of fate?" Chieftain Tarlin looked at the thread thoughtfully.

After he touched the silk thread, he vaguely saw a scene.

He was shrouded in mist, and before him stood a colossal celestial body formed of metal.

Surrounding him were a large number of Tallinn people, other exiled civilizations, and even human powerhouses like Lu Ning.

The image flashed by in an instant and quickly disappeared.
