Hahaha!!!
Thanks to you all, truly. If not for you killing that old bastard, it would have been nearly impossible for me to advance to the Dao Lord realm. The young man wearing a purple-gold crown laughed heartily.
He was the crown prince of the Qi Luck Dynasty, Yan Kingdom!
Strictly speaking, the former crown prince.
He was the crown prince from seven million years ago, while the crown princes before him... had basically turned to dust.
Since ancient times, being a crown prince was a very dangerous occupation, and few managed to successfully ascend the throne.
As for the crown prince of a Qi Luck Dynasty, his succession was even further out of reach.
The crown princes who came before him had all been outlived by their sovereign father.
"Indeed, we should thank them," a charmingly curvaceous woman chimed in.
They were precisely the Dao Lords who had just been bestowed titles by the Supreme God-Emperor.
The strength of a world long since limited how many Dao Lords that world could sustain.
Exceeding a certain number would cause the world to collapse under the strain.
The Azure World was never lacking in geniuses, yet these geniuses were unable to become Dao Lords.
As long as the predecessors lived, the successors would never be able to ascend.
Being born in the Azure World was their fortune, yet it was also their misfortune.
They had cultivated to the peak of the ninth stage of the divine realm, yet they were restricted by the world.
Faced with such a situation, they had only two paths: first, transcend the world; second, slay the current Dao Lords.
For someone at the ninth stage of the divine realm to kill a Dao Lord was sheer wishful thinking.
Transcending the world!
That was even more difficult.
