In the Fung family's main hall, Fengwuming sat at the center and announced, "The Path of Godhood has opened. My Fung family will join forces with the Long family and head to the Realm Beyond Heaven together with the heroes of the Earthly Star. The Saints will strive to break through to godhood, while the Celestial Gods will strive to become the king of gods and show the might of the Fung family!"
Fengwuming stated that only Saints and above were qualified to participate in the Path of Godhood. Even the strongest Celestial Gods were allowed to enter.
"Show the might of the Fung family!" everyone in the hall exclaimed in unison.
"Very well. Since our Fung family won the Dragon-Phoenix Competition not long ago, the Fung family will be the main force this time, and the Long family will be the support. We will work together on the Path of Godhood!"
Feng Wuming continued, "This time, the Path of Gods is filled with dangers. You will be competing with experts from various clans for various resources. There will definitely be all kinds of casualties. Therefore, you must consider this carefully. Death will be a very common occurrence. If you do not wish to proceed, you can withdraw now. No one will blame you."
Despite Fengwuming's announcement, there were still some who withdrew from the Path of Godhood.
After all, not everyone could disregard their own life and death.
"Alright, those who did not withdraw will gather in three months. For now, you should take care of your own matters. This will be a long and bloody Path of Godhood!
The geniuses of various races will gather for a grand occasion that will last ten thousand years! "Fengwuming announced.
The Fung family placed great importance on the Path of Godhood. There were dozens of Celestial Gods and over a hundred Saints. There was no limit to their age and number.
However, once one entered the Path of Godhood, it would not be so easy to withdraw from it.
After the meeting ended, Yao Yue walked out of the main hall. Phoenix caught up to her and said, "Yao Yue, can we have a chat?"
Yao Yue turned around and looked at Phoenix's expectant eyes. Her heart softened and she said, "Okay!"
Yao Yue and Phoenix walked together in the middle of the uninhabited mountain forest. They were like a pair of golden boy and jade girl, appearing to be quite compatible!
The Fung family members who were passing by couldn't help but praise them in their hearts, "Yao Yue and Phoenix are a match made in heaven!"
The two of them walked quietly all the way, but didn't speak at all. It was as if they didn't know where to start!
For some reason, when Yao Yue and Phoenix stood next to each other, his bloodline seemed to become excited. It was as if the attraction between their bloodlines had caused him to have a strong desire to possess Phoenix!
Phoenix also had the same strange feeling, but both of them were restraining themselves!
"You're not a man who's easy to like. You've been with me for so long, but you didn't even say a word!
I really don't know why Mu Xiangya likes you! "Phoenix broke the silence.
Yao Yue smiled faintly and said, "Maybe. I don't know what to say to you!"
"Maybe I'm also an unlikeable woman!" Phoenix said self-deprecatingly. She then asked, "Have you heard about the Path of Gods before?"
Yao Yue shook her head, appearing to be at a loss.
"It's called the Path of Gods, but it's actually just a path where countless races compete. Every race's geniuses gather at the Path of Gods and challenge all kinds of challenges along the way to obtain all kinds of resources. Whoever obtains the most resources will become a god, and that person will be the winner. However, after becoming a god, there will be a War of Gods. This War of Gods not only represents one's glory, but also the glory of every race!" As the daughter of the patriarch, it was normal for Phoenix to know more than others.
Moreover, this wasn't the first time the Path of Gods had been opened. Countless legends had been recorded in ancient books.
"I see. In that case, there are many uncertainties in the Path of Gods!" Yao Yue came to a realization.
"That's right. Since ancient times, our human race has never suffered any losses on the Path of Gods. In fact, we have always had the upper hand and managed to become one of the ten strongest races. However, in recent times, our human race has become much weaker. The once strongest race, the demon race, has also declined. The other races have begun to act viciously and look down on us. If we're lucky enough to become gods, we'll do our best to fight for the glory of our human race!" Phoenix said.
"You're quite righteous!"
Yao Yue praised sincerely. She then added, "In any case, I won't attack unless I'm attacked. If anyone dares to provoke me, I'll return the favor tenfold!"
Every race had its own righteousness and evil. It was very difficult to determine who was righteous and who was evil. Yao Yue felt that he wasn't a noble person, so he could only do his part well.
"You're honest. However, in the face of righteousness, I believe you won't back down!" Phoenix said affirmatively.
"Maybe!" Yao Yue sighed softly. She then asked, "Did you call me out just to talk about this?"
"Yes, let's talk about this. I think we can work together on the Path of Gods, right?" Phoenix nodded.
Phoenix wasn't the kind of person who was impatient for quick results. She just wanted to communicate more with Yao Yue and get to know each other better first.
Perhaps one day, Yao Yue would suddenly fall in love with her!
"I'll try my best!" Yao Yue didn't make a promise.
"By the way, you're now in the top five of the Earthly Dragon List. Perhaps you'll encounter many challenges on the Path of Gods when you reach Sky Beyond Sky!" Phoenix changed the topic.
"What's the Earthly Dragon List?" Yao Yue asked with a puzzled expression.
"You don't even know this?" Phoenix was surprised.
Yao Yue shook her head, indicating that she really didn't know!
Although she had been on the Earthly Star for a long time, she only knew the surface of the Earthly Star's vastness and secrets.
"The Earthly Dragon List and the Phoenix List are both lists made by the Number One Legend. Each list is divided into three lists: Heaven, Earth, and Mortal. There are 1,000 people on the Mortal List, 100 on the Earth List, and 50 on the Heaven List. Each list is restricted by age and strength. The Mortal List is for people under the Great Emperor Realm within 100 years old. The Earth List is for Sages within 200 years old, and the Heaven List is for Gods within 500 years old. The Earthly Dragon List is for Sages within 200 years old, and the Earthly Dragon List is for Sages within 200 years old.
Brother Feng Teng is only in the top 50! "Phoenix explained.
Yao Yue wasn't interested in these lists. It was similar to the list made by Zhuge Tianji on the Monster World Star. It was just an empty name!
"Who is the Number One Legend?" Yao Yue was interested in the list's name.
He knew that the person who could be called the Number One Legend must be an extraordinary person with extraordinary abilities!
"The Number One Legend is also known as the Strange Old Man. He is elusive. Few people have seen him before, and no one knows his name. Some say that he is the disciple of Immortal Xuan Wu, who was once the world's number one fortune teller. Others say that he is the Sect Master of the Wonderful Armor Sect. In short, there are all kinds of legends. Outsiders can't verify his identity, so they call him the Number One Legend!" Phoenix replied.
"His identity is really mysterious!" Yao Yue smiled faintly.
"Yes. The list made by the Number One Legend is based on a person's strength and the power behind them. Only then can they enter the list. Basically, they are recognized by the world!
You are in the top five of the Earthly Dragon List after defeating Long Senyu and Long Huaqiang. This proves that you are in the top five among the Sages within 200 years old. This will let the world know of your existence. When the time comes, there will definitely be people who will challenge you to take the top spot! "
"If they want to challenge me, then so be it. Didn't they come all the way here?"
"Of course, there will also be countless women who will be interested in you!
The Dragon and Phoenix List itself will be one of the criteria for the ranking! "
"Damn, that's not a good thing!"
"Don't tell me you think this is something to be proud of?"
"I just think that beauties are troublesome!"
"Say that again if you dare!"
…
Phoenix was indeed Phoenix. Just by casually talking about some things, she was able to get closer to Yao Yue. Their relationship had improved a lot compared to before!
After Yao Yue separated from Phoenix, he was called to see his Great-grandmother.
"Yao Yue, the path to godhood has opened, and your destiny is about to begin!
Are you ready? "Yu Hong looked at Yao Yue and asked.
"Yue Er, I'm ready!" Yao Yue nodded seriously.
"Mm. You're not bad among the Sages. However, your goal shouldn't be the Sage Realm, but the Celestial Realm!
Great-grandmother has set a goal for you. You must achieve it no matter what. This will determine whether you can become the sect master of the future Celestial Realm! "Yu Hong said seriously. She paused for a moment before continuing," At the very least, you must become the number one on the Heavenly Dragon List! "
Number one on the Heavenly Dragon List!
Yao Yue's expression changed slightly. That was the strongest Celestial Realm existence within the age of 500. That was an extraordinarily high goal!
One had to know that he was not even a Great Sage yet. How could he have achieved so much in such a short period of time?
Although he had been advancing rapidly over the years, he still felt that this goal was extremely difficult to achieve.
"Do you feel that Great-grandmother's request is a little difficult?" Yu Hong asked Yao Yue.
Yao Yue answered honestly, "A little."
"To others, it's not just a little. It's as difficult as ascending to the heavens!
After all, you're still very young. You've only lost in a race against time. However, you have master's legacy and the Nine Sovereigns Divine Arts. It won't be difficult for you to break through to the Celestial Realm. Furthermore, you have the nine star battle runes. The battle prowess you can unleash will definitely be the strongest among those of the same level!
Therefore, you should be confident. Otherwise, you'll be a disgrace to master's legacy, and you won't be fit to be the sect master! "
Yu Hong said. She paused for a moment before continuing, "However, there's no special time limit for entering the Path of Gods. As long as you can clear all 81 stages before the age of 500 and surpass all the geniuses of the various races, the mission will still be considered complete!"
"If that's the case, Yao Yue doesn't think there'll be any problems!" Yao Yue heaved a sigh of relief.
He still had 400 years left. He felt that it wouldn't be difficult for him to become the number one on the Heavenly Dragon List.
However, Yu Hong's next words dealt a huge blow to him.
"When master was young, he cleared all 81 stages and became the number one on the Path of Gods, he wasn't even 300 years old!"
…
