Years of continuous walking on the divine path saw Lu Fan and the others gradually approaching its far shore. Those who managed to reach this point were by no means ordinary, with most being top-tier existences.
To have journeyed from the beginning of the divine path to this place was already remarkable, hence there was no fighting here, but rather mutual assistance.
This was because they could clearly sense a mysterious pressure at the end of the divine path, preventing them from advancing. This force exerted a significant impact on them.
"I truly never imagined that after so many years, we would still be on the divine path!" Zhao Xiaotian sighed. "If this continues, will we ever reach the end? Does this divine path truly have no end?"
Upon hearing this, the expressions of many elders present shifted slightly. Even they were beginning to waver. After all, so many years had passed, and they had walked for countless ages within the divine tomb, yet still could not reach the other shore. This was an internal torment for them.
"Without the heart of eternity in one's heart, how can one become a god!"
Lu Fan shook his head and said, "Only by constantly moving forward can one reach the far shore of the divine path. Perhaps only then will there be an opportunity!"
The others nodded in agreement, though a sense of complaint was inevitable, as they were naturally resistant to the unknown.
"What this fellow Daoist said is correct. Without the heart of eternity, how can one attain the supreme Dao!"
A man approached, looking at Lu Fan. His words were earnest. "To prove the Dao and become a god, one must persevere. Only then can one achieve the supreme Dao!"
Lu Fan gazed at the bald man, feeling a touch of surprise. This bald man exuded no aura, appearing as ordinary as any commoner. However, anyone who could reach this point could hardly be ordinary.
"I didn't expect there to be monks on this path to godhood!"
Zhao Xiaotian chuckled, speaking without reservation.
"Show some respect!" Lu Fan shot her a glance. Those who could come here were not to be trifled with, and thus should not be offended lightly.
"Benefactor, there is no need for such formality. That young lady was merely joking, and it is of no consequence!"
Wu Dao waved his hand. "Although I am a monk, in these myriad realms, life takes on many forms. As long as one's heart is set on the divine, one will eventually attain the supreme Dao!"
"Master speaks wisely!"
Lu Fan cupped his fists, greatly approving of these words. Furthermore, he was quite certain that this monk was not simple. Though he appeared rather ordinary, even young, his overall aura conveyed a sense of ancientness.
"Monk Wu Dao, are you discussing Buddhist principles with people here again?"
Just then, a faint voice sounded. A group of figures approached from not far away, radiating powerful demonic energy. Su Dan Novel Network.
"So it's the patriarch of the Thunder Roc tribe!"
Monk Wu Dao smiled slightly, bringing his palms together. "I didn't expect even you to appear. It seems this path to godhood truly attracts many!"
"Listen to what you're saying. Even you, a monk, have appeared. How can I, as the patriarch of the Thunder Roc tribe, stand idly by? After all, my Thunder Roc tribe awaits my ascension to godhood, so that I may lead them to glory!" the Thunder Roc Patriarch chuckled.
"To strive for glory is not life's true purpose. Moreover, your Thunder Roc tribe has committed many acts of killing. To prove the Dao and become a god will likely be exceedingly difficult!" Monk Wu Dao shook his head, his gaze appearing even more indifferent.
"You old monk, why do you speak like that!"
With a sense of displeasure, the members of the Thunder Roc tribe looked at Wu Dao with dissatisfaction.
Wu Dao merely smiled faintly, ignoring them, and continued on his way towards the far shore of the divine path without any pause. His gaze was firm, as if everything in his eyes was utterly ephemeral.
"This old monk is always like this, liking to put on airs!"
The Thunder Roc Patriarch shook his head and then looked at Lu Fan and the others. "I see you are not ordinary people and likely possess some skill. Why not travel together? That way, we can look out for each other!"
"The Thunder Roc tribe has always been supreme in their might. We are likely unable to provoke you!"
Lu Fan said with a wry smile, "It's better if we don't travel together!"
"What do you mean by that?"
Several elders nearby narrowed their eyes and asked Lu Fan, "You seem to harbor a deep animosity towards us!"
"Within this divine path, it seems one should harbor some animosity towards everyone!"
Lu Fan shrugged. "My behavior can be considered justifiable. Would you gentlemen, then, make things difficult for us because of this?"
Facing these words, the eyes of the others turned sharp. Although Lu Fan had spoken tactfully, they, the Thunder Roc tribe, were not easily provoked; in fact, they were known for their propensity for combat.
"Everyone, do not act rashly. Within the divine path, one should not make enemies of others. One should be kind to people to have a better future!"
The Thunder Roc Patriarch waved his hand, speaking to stop them. He knew very well that if he did not intervene, the members of the Thunder Roc tribe would undoubtedly attack without regard for the consequences, thus causing unnecessary trouble.
After all, everyone understood that those who could reach this point were not ordinary individuals, and trying to assert dominance here would not be easy.
Although the others were quite displeased, since the patriarch had spoken, they could not say much more.
However, looking at Lu Fan and the others, they did not seem like ordinary people. If they were to truly fight, they would not necessarily gain any advantage.
"It's fortunate you didn't make a move, otherwise, who would have been at a disadvantage is not yet certain!"
Tian Long stood to the side, his gaze appearing cold, looking towards the members of the Thunder Roc tribe.
Upon seeing this, the Thunder Roc tribe members frowned slightly. This person before them exuded a powerful aura, making one wonder about his identity.
"Why do I sense an unusual aura from you!"
With a solemn expression, the Thunder Roc Patriarch looked at Tian Long, his demeanor earnest.
"What's so curious about that!"
Lu Fan shrugged. "He possesses divine beast bloodline. Such powerful bloodline energy should hold significant deterrence for your beast race!"
"Beast race bloodline!"
Following these words, the Thunder Roc Patriarch was greatly startled. He had not expected this unremarkable Tian Long to possess divine beast bloodline.
Divine beasts were like deities to their beast race; no one dared to offend them. Yet, he never imagined that their descendant would be so pathetic.
"If you are being coerced, you can tell me!" the Thunder Roc Patriarch said to Tian Long. "How can our beast race remain subservient to others for long, especially one with divine beast bloodline!"
