"The limit of a soul beast is a million years of cultivation. Even if it survives nine heavenly tribulations, it will only have power comparable to a god, but without the name of a god or the lifespan of a god."
"Once the heavenly tribulation is over, we will still turn into a handful of dust!"
"And what about you humans?"
Di Tian turned his gaze to Ning Liu, his expression full of sarcasm, "But they've opened their doors to you. As long as you have enough talent and pass the test, you can inherit the divine position and ascend to the heavens in one step!"
