Tian Yuan City.

"Burp~!"
Dola patted her still-flat little belly and said, "I think I'm really full this time."
"Mhm, completely and utterly, definitely full~!"
Buzz—
The Secret Realm Gate opened in the distance, and Mu Yuan stepped inside.
"Finally, I can become a saint."
Ever since the great battle to destroy Dragon Sleeping Valley ended, Mu Yuan had made Dola devote all her energy to preparing for her ascension to sainthood.
Because of this, he had not even let Dola deal with some of the major spatial rifts and places of spatial turbulence inside and outside the island domain. He simply did not want her to be distracted by them.
Becoming a saint was an extremely serious matter. Even though Dola would face almost no obstacles in her ascension, they still had to approach it with utmost seriousness and caution.
But unexpectedly...
Mu Yuan had originally thought that after Dola devoured the Dragon Sleeping Valley base, her path as the Devouring Lord should have reached Great Perfection.
He had not expected her to still be short by that 0.001%.
She was only missing the final slash.
Half a slash.
Half of half of half of a slash.
"But fortunately, that tiny gap at the end didn't expand indefinitely. Otherwise, she might really have had to force her way into the saint realm in an imperfect state."
Of course, with Dola's current accumulation, even if she was not fully perfected, she still had a high chance of blasting open the gate to sainthood. However, if she ascended in such a state, she would lose far too much of the improvement she could have gained during the process.
It would be equivalent to ascending through an ordinary top-tier saint path.
But Dola could not spend a year
